=== Adding patches === | |||
It is easy to add patches to a nix package: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="nix"> | |||
self: super: | |||
{ | |||
sl = super.sl.overrideAttrs (old: { | |||
patches = (old.patches or []) ++ [ | |||
(super.fetchpatch { | |||
url = "https://github.com/charlieLehman/sl/commit/e20abbd7e1ee26af53f34451a8f7ad79b27a4c0a.patch"; | |||
sha256 = "07sx98d422589gxr8wflfpkdd0k44kbagxl3b51i56ky2wfix7rc"; | |||
}) | |||
# alternatively if you have a local patch, | |||
/path/to/file.patch | |||
# or a relative path (relative to the current nix file) | |||
./relative.patch | |||
]; | |||
}); | |||
} | |||
