Gomod2nix

Convert applications using Go modules -> Nix

Usage

From the Go project directory execute:

$ gomod2nix

This will create gomod2nix.toml that's used like so

let
  pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {
    overlays = [
      (self: super: {
        buildGoApplication = super.callPackage ./builder { };
      })
    ];
  };
in pkgs.buildGoApplication {
  pname = "gomod2nix-example";
  version = "0.1";
  src = ./.;
  modules = ./gomod2nix.toml;
}

For more in-depth usage check the Getting Started and the Nix API reference docs.

Motivation

The announcement blog post contains comparisons with other Go build systems for Nix and additional notes on the design choices made.
