# nur-packages-template
**A template for [NUR](https://github.com/nix-community/NUR) repositories**
## Setup
1. Click on [Use this template](https://github.com/nix-community/nur-packages-template/generate) to start a repo based on this template. (Do _not_ fork it.)
2. Add your packages to the [pkgs](./pkgs) directory and to
[default.nix](./default.nix)
* Remember to mark the broken packages as `broken = true;` in the `meta`
attribute, or travis (and consequently caching) will fail!
* Library functions, modules and overlays go in the respective directories
3. Choose your CI: Depending on your preference you can use github actions (recommended) or [Travis ci](https://travis-ci.com).
- Github actions: Change your NUR repo name and optionally add a cachix name in [.github/workflows/build.yml](./.github/workflows/build.yml) and change the cron timer
to a random value as described in the file
- Travis ci: Change your NUR repo name and optionally your cachix repo name in
[.travis.yml](./.travis.yml). Than enable travis in your repo. You can add a cron job in the repository settings on travis to keep your cachix cache fresh
5. Change your travis and cachix names on the README template section and delete
the rest
6. [Add yourself to NUR](https://github.com/nix-community/NUR#how-to-add-your-own-repository)

### Jetbrains with plugins
A fan of the Emacs/Vim/VSCode plugin builder? Now enjoy it with your favourite Jetbrains IDE!
The system is mostly proof-of-concept and there are a couple of issues with it at the moment, but it works for what is available in the repo.
#### Using
```nix
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
let
xeals = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://git.xeal.me/xeals/nur-packages/archive/master.tar.gz") {
inherit pkgs;
};
in
# e.g., for IntelliJ IDEA
xeals.jetbrains.ideaCommunityWithPlugins (jpkgs: [
jpkgs.ideavim
jpgs.checkstyle-idea
])
```
#### Issues
- [ ] The plugin derivation overrides the base instead of extending it; this is really only an issue for the open-source IDEs, and only once they're actually built from source (instead of repackaging the JARs)
- [ ] Plugins must be manually added to the repo; long-term, I'd really want some way to scrape them, or at least have a script to add and update
### spotify-ripper
`spotify-ripper` is pretty flexible in the formats it supports, so the derivation allows you to customize which support packages to build with.
The default package comes with nothing (which is not entirely useful -- this will probably change at some point). See [the builder](./pkgs/tools/misc/spotify-ripper/default.nix) for options.
## General issues
- [ ] `spotify-ripper` does not build on stable NixOS channels before 20.09 when built with m4a or mp4 support, as `fdk-aac-encoder` is not available
- [ ] Due to weirdness in fixed output hashes, anything using `buildGoModule` and `buildRustPackage` will fail on unstable channels of Nixpkgs, and must be overridden if you want to use these packages on unstable channels
