= Access a Haskell library package in the nixpkgs repo (without a `.cabal` file)
|

|

$ mkdir tempwork
|
|
$ cd tempwork
|
|
$ cp ../flake.nix ../Main.hs .
|

$ git add Main.hs flake.nix

Occasionally you might want to run a short Haskell program that depends on a Haskell library,
|
|
but you don't want to bother writing a cabal file.
|
|
In this example, we will access the `extra` package from the `haskellPackages` set in the nixpkgs repo.
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
====
|
|
For non-trivial Haskell development projects,
|
|
it's usually more convenient to use `haskell-flake` as described in <<#haskell-flake>>,
|
|
together with the _high-level workflow_ described in <<_development_workflows>>.

.flake.nix

Here's a short Haskell program that uses it.
|
|
|
|
[source,haskell,linenums]
|
|
.Main.hs
|
|
....
|
|
include::Main.hs[]
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
Here's a demonstration using the program.
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
$ runghc Main.hs # Fails; dependency not available
|
|
$# ../../../../../start-shell nix develop <<EOL
|
|
$ runghc Main.hs # Works in development environemnt
|
|
$# EOL
|
|

Good adoc0 scripts clean up after themselves.

$ cd .. ; rm -rf tempwork # clean up
