I am surprised this isn't set. But if you set this variable on the derivation in question, then also an env var with that name should be set.

Huh! Yes, these should be deduplicated: https://github.com/kolloch/crate2nix/blob/7902f754b7ce5bc6d4083d7d969e5e3f9506a1c0/tools.nix Potentially, we also need to have the rev as part of the key, not sure about that.

Hi @lblasc, thanks for posting the hack for this here :)

There is somewhat preliminary (and stalled) support for out-of-tree builds: https://github.com/kolloch/crate2nix/blob/master/out-of-tree-sources.md

Hi @lovesegfault, sounds like an awesome project! I have not looked into this and I'd need some time to dig into this. If you can make the underlying buildRustCrate use...

@andir I think it was intentional

@xcthulhu Thanks, I think about that. Is this the standard pattern for generating nix and using it in the same build?

@mitchmindtree Nice idea, I would be open to tutoring/supporting an intern if they really spend a considerable time on this (otherwise onboarding overhead might be a big much).

1. There is a `release` argument that you can set to `false` but I doubt it will generate separate debug info. 2. This feature probably needs support of `buildRustCrate` in...

Sure, would be a nice feature.
