Moving from Homebrew to Nix Package Manager

前言

2012年我入手了人生第一台MacBook Pro,也正式开启了macOS(以前是 os x)之旅。在很长一段时间里我并不习惯macOS的应用安装方式。应用下载完后,打开dmg,然后拖放到 /Applications 目录下。以及macOS根本就不存在包管理器这种东西,我甚至在MacBook上直接安装了Archlinux。出于某些什么的原因,我又重新返回到了macOS,然后在用了一两个月的MacPorts之后转投了Homebrew。然后在最近重拾了haskell的学习进程之后,又开始折腾起了nix。

安装nix

因为 macOS catalin 的关系,安装 nix 的过程有些许曲折,可以参考我之前的文章 Learning Haskell with nix and Emacs

卸载Homebrew安装的包

列出已经安装的包

  brew list

看看都安装了些什么软件包,如果有必要就在 nix 里面重新安装一遍。

  brew uninstall `brew list`

安装nix包

  nix-env -i coreutils

问题

coreutils包中的命令覆盖了macOS本身的命令

coreutils包中的命令有好几个与macOS命令冲突,并且其行为也不一样,例如 df 命令

coreutils的df

   $ df -h
   Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
   /dev/disk1s1    932G   11G  695G   2% /
   /dev/disk1s5    932G  4.1G  695G   1% /private/var/vm
   /dev/disk1s6    932G   17G  695G   3% /nix

macOS 的 df

   $ df -h
   Filesystem      Size   Used  Avail Capacity iused      ifree %iused  Mounted on
   /dev/disk1s1   932Gi   10Gi  694Gi     2%  484150 9767494010    0%   /
   devfs          205Ki  205Ki    0Bi   100%     712          0  100%   /dev
   /dev/disk1s2   932Gi  206Gi  694Gi    23% 2334824 9765643336    0%   /System/Volumes/Data
   /dev/disk1s5   932Gi  4.0Gi  694Gi     1%       4 9767978156    0%   /private/var/vm
   map auto_home    0Bi    0Bi    0Bi   100%       0          0  100%   /System/Volumes/Data/home
   /dev/disk1s6   932Gi   16Gi  694Gi     3%  436832 9767541328    0%   /nix

于是参考homebrew的coreutils自己改了下 coreutils nix表达式:

emacs-libvterm 编译问题

emacs-libvterm 前段时间开始使用这个包,可以说这个包是目前为止,我用过的在emacs下表现最好的终端模拟器了。然后在换成nix之后遇到了些问题。

glibtool 命令找不到

emacs-libvterm在macOS下,回去寻找glibtool这个命令,而glibtool这个命令实际上就是libtool命令加了前缀 g 。nix里面对应的包名是libtool。需要修改nix增加前缀。

libtool 静态编译问题

nix下的包默认都是非静态编译,而emacs-libvterm又需要静态编译。这里又要改glibtool的nix表达式。

综上,最后修改完的 nix 文件

jenv 包不存在问题

jenv包是为了解决java环境问题的。而nix本身就是为了解决开发环境问题的“终极”方案。理论上根本就不需要jenv这样的工具。但是所有开发都使用 nix-shell 去定制开发环境,又稍显太重。所以有时候还是需要jenv这样的工具的。于是自己写个 nix表达式。

mit-scheme 安装问题

nix的channel里有mit-scheme包,但是不支持darwin平台。使用mit-scheme-c的包来安装的话,又有编译问题。nix编译darwin包用的stdenv中clang的版本比较低。

   $ nix-shell --pure -p stdenv --command "clang --version"
   clang version 7.1.0 (tags/RELEASE_710/final)
   Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.2.0
   Thread model: posix
   InstalledDir: /nix/store/jdmg20b8rgvs1s4fxb585lffz07vv52a-clang-7.1.0/bin

解决clang版本低问题,可以直接使用xcode command line tools编译

 1:     { stdenv, requireFile, lib }:
 2: 
 3:     let requireCLTool = version: sha256:
 4:       let
 5:         version' = lib.replaceStrings ["."] ["_"] version;

 7:         app = requireFile rec {
 8:           name = "CommandLineTools";
 9:           url = "https://download.developer.apple.com/Developer_Tools/Command_Line_Tools_for_Xcode_${version'}/Command_Line_Tools_for_Xcode_${version'}.dmg";
10:           hashMode = "recursive";
11:           inherit sha256;
12:           message  = ''

14:             Please go to ${url}
15:             to download it yourself, and add it to the Nix store by running the following commands.
16:             Note: download (~ 5GB), extraction and storing of Xcode will take a while
17: 
18:             nix-store --add-fixed --recursive sha256 /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
19:           '';
20:         };
21:         meta = with stdenv.lib; {

23:           description = "Apple's Command Line Tools for Xcode";
24:           license = licenses.unfree;
25:           platforms = platforms.darwin;
26:         };
27:       in app.overrideAttrs (oldAttrs : oldAttrs // { inherit meta; });
28:

32:     })

修改 mit-scheme nix表达式,使用xcode command line tools编译

我的自定义nix-channels

后记

nix是个好工具,对于构建应用的开发环境来说是一个杀手级的工具,但是对于macOS这种系统的日常使用来说还是有些不方便。最后我给自己定下了一些使用策略。

  1. 使用homebrew cask安装桌面应用,比如firefox、chrome等。
  2. 使用homebrew安装日常命令行工具。
  3. 对一些依赖比较复杂的应用,使用nix构造开发环境
