Instructions needed. #10

Closed dukc closed 7 months ago

dukc commented 10 months ago

There should be an instruction file for the user to build the derivations here. It should specify both how to simply build an already fetched version of a single package (copying what readme.md in OldDDerivations says probably does pretty good job) and how to run the prefetcher scripts to generate the version-specific hash files (once #9 is in).

In PR #9 I've added a readme doc which covers the end-user aspects of using this repository - both via Flakes and the old-school way. In a future PR I plan rework the scripts and I'll add documentation for contributors. Please review https://github.com/PetarKirov/dlang.nix/blob/main/README.md and let me know what you think @dukc. I'm closing the issue for now, but feel free to reopen it if needed.

Had a look. Yes, I'd say this satisfies what I wanted, and we don't need 2.xxx.nix files anymore. Which is good since the new way is so much better automated.
