Urweb-Build

-----------

This repository contains base expression for building

[Ur/Web](http://impredicative.com/ur/)

projects using nix-build tool. For the complex usage example, see

[urweb-fviewer project](https://github.com/grwlf/urweb-fviewer)

Install

-------

0. Install [Nix](http://nixos.org/nix/) package manager. You may like it so much,

   it will be the last package manager for you to install. The installation provides

   you with the `nix-build` tool and the `/nix/store` package collection.

   Note, that it is surely possible to install Nix on computers running common

   Linux distribution like Ubuntu. Installation of NixOS distribution is not

   required.

1. Clone the project and its submodule

   ```

   $ git clone https://github.com/grwlf/urweb-build

   $ cd urweb-build

   $ git submodule update --init

   ```

2. Add the urweb-build directory to your NIX\_PATH. This will allow Nix to

   interpret instructions like `import  {}` correctly.

   ```

   export NIX_PATH="$NIX_PATH:urweb-build=/path/to/urweb-build"

   ```

Now it should be possible to build compatible Ur/Web projects by moving to

project directory and typing `nix-build` or `nix-build build.nix` depending on

the file name of project Nix-expression. Build results are typically accessed by

following the `./result` symlink.
