Replicate `mkDerivation` naming scheme

[augustebaum]

Running nix flake show on this branch shows the package names to be <package>-<version>:

❯ nix flake show
├───checks
│   └───x86_64-linux
│       ├─── ...
│       ├───autobase: derivation 'autobase-1.0.0-alpha.9'
...

but the derivation itself will have the name <package>-<version>-<version>.

We understand that this is because we set the name to "<name>-${version}" in our work, and that it is reused as pname for the call to mkDerivation (as shown here).

How can we replicate the mkDerivation naming scheme of <package>-<version> without interfering with the implementation of dream2nix modules?

Hello, con you just set name = "<name>" only without the version, and let dream2nix append the version?

[augustebaum]

Thanks for the quick response! The issue is that the version isn't appended everywhere. For instance, we took the example flake from the dream2nix repo and ran nix flake show; this gives:

<flake>
└───packages
    └───x86_64-linux
        └───hello: package 'hello'

but we'd like it to show

<flake>
└───packages
    └───x86_64-linux
        └───hello: package 'hello-2.12'

Is there any way to achieve this?
