I have an app that I’m working on that uses Purescript.
I had abandoned purs-nix because it didn’t work with the newest spago and I was cruising albeit with an old-school non-deterministic build system.
Recently, I’ve been refactoring my dev environment to build nix-style using mkSpagoDerivation.
Anyway, I ran into a roadblock when it came time to bundle/build an npx package (vite) in that same lovely deterministic style in order to run a dev server.
I haven’t found anything that accomplishes this in the npm world via googling.
So, I currently build the fully deterministic parts that use Haskell (for my back end), a PostgreSQL NixOS service, and Purescript (the front end) using mkSpagoDerivation. But then when I go to launch/run the bundled app I have to build vite using the (gross ) highly-deterministic npm style.
Since I see people packaging node modules for nixpkgs, I figure there has to be some method that I’m not finding in search. Npm2nix?
Am I doomed to non-determinism when I use NPM or is there some module that I’m missing?
Thank in advance for any advice you may give.strong text
