Derivations for easily downloading Dhall binaries and putting them to use.
You can get an appropriate nix-shell with the binaries installed by first testing this with:
nix-shell
You might choose to simply copy the derivations from this repository, or you can fetch the git/Github repo using the various helpers:
> nix repl
nix-repl> pkgs = import ./nixpkgs.nix {}
nix-repl> drvs = import (pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "justinwoo";
repo = "easy-dhall-nix";
rev = # some REV
sha256 = # some SHA
}) { inherit pkgs; }
nix-repl> drvs.dhall-simple
