# gnu-cobol-nix
Nix flake to build [GnuCOBOL](https://sourceforge.net/p/gnucobol/code/HEAD/tree) and [GnuCOBOL Contrib](https://sourceforge.net/p/gnucobol/contrib/HEAD/tree)
on Linux & MacOS. This flake fetches source from Github mirrors [1](https://github.com/rupurt/GnuCOBOL), [2](https://github.com/rupurt/GnuCOBOL-Contrib)
of the upstream SourceForge SVN repositories.
## Usage
```nix
{
description = "Your nix flake with GnuCOBOL. Hack the planet!";
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
gnu-cobol= {
url = "github:rupurt/gnu-cobol-nix";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
};
outputs = {
flake-utils,
gnu-cobol,
nixpkgs,
...
}: let
systems = ["x86_64-linux" "aarch64-linux" "x86_64-darwin" "aarch64-darwin"];
outputs = flake-utils.lib.eachSystem systems (system: let
pkgs = import nixpkgs {
overlays = [
gnu-cobol.overlay
];
};
in {
# nix fmt
formatter = pkgs.alejandra;
# nix develop -c $SHELL
devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell {
name = "default dev shell";
packages = with pkgs; [
gnu-cobol-pkgs.gnu-cobol.bin
];
};
});
in
outputs;
}
```
## Utilities
### cobc
An open-source `COBOL` compiler
```shell
> cobc --help
GnuCOBOL compiler for most COBOL dialects with lots of extensions
Usage: cobc [options]... file...
Options:
-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version display compiler version information and exit
-dumpversion display compiler version and exit
-i, --info display compiler information (build/environment)
and exit
...
```
### cobcrun
`COBOL` driver program for `GnuCOBOL` modules
```shell
> cobcrun --help
GnuCOBOL module loader
Usage: cobcrun [options] PROGRAM [parameter ...]
or: cobcrun options
Options:
-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version display version information for cobcrun + runtime and exit
-dumpversion display runtime version and exit
-i, --info display runtime information (build/environment)
-v, --verbose display extended output with --info
-c , --config= set runtime configuration from
-r, --runtime-config display current runtime configuration
(value and origin for all settings)
-M , --module= set entry point module name and/or load path
where -M module prepends any directory to the
dynamic link loader library search path
and any basename to the module preload list
(COB_LIBRARY_PATH and/or COB_PRELOAD)
