mmmrrr
I’m trying to get GitHub - elixir-desktop/desktop: Building Local-First apps for Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS and Android using Phoenix LiveView & Elixir! · GitHub running.
To get it running one needs erlang compiled against wxwidgets - which I think nix already does, since I can run :observer.start() in iex. But it seems that wxWebView is missing somehow.
I have the following shell.nix:
let
pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
unstable = import <nixos-unstable> { config = { allowUnfree = true; }; };
in with pkgs;
stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "elixir-project";
buildInputs = [
];
nativeBuildInputs = [
unstable.erlang
unstable.elixir
unstable.wxGTK
unstable.gtk3
unstable.webkitgtk
unstable.gcc
unstable.sqlite
];
shellHook = let
in ''
'';
}
Where nixos-unstable is: unstable https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable
Any ideas what’s missing here?

Error message becaus of course I forgot posting it:

what wxwidgets version do you have installed? ie. most likely install 3.1.5, then reinstall/compile erlang..
mmmrrr
Tried with
wxGTK31which should be version3.1.4andwxGTKwhich should be2.8.12.1.But I actually don’t know against which version erlang was compiled…
Edit: it seems like it is compiled against 2.8.12.1 [1] - which would make sense. Hm, so I’ll need to patch the erlang package first.

does asdf work on nix? if then probably easier..
mmmrrr
Maybe and definitively not
The cool thing about nix is that you can relatively easily overwrite package definitions and use your own. I’ll try to make it work and report back if I get it working.
At least I now have a starting point for what might be wrong - thanks ^.^
