Horizon BioHaskell

horizon-biohaskell is a Package Set targetting bioinformatics libraries and applications.

This sources much of its information from the (BioHaskell)[https://biohaskell.org/] project.

Package Set Policy

This package set has the following policy.

• GHC will advance as often as possible.
• Non-versioned locations (git, unversioned tarballs) are permitted to allow GHC to advance.
• The following packages must always build:
  • BiobaseTypes
  • BiobaseXNA

Updating the Package set

The package set is generated from the horizon.dhall using the following command:

nix run 'git+https://gitlab.horizon-haskell.net/haskell/horizon-gen-nix?ref=refs/tags/0.10.0'

If you need to do additional manual overrides to the nix code, such as addPkgconfigDepends, edit the configuration.nix overlay, which is applied afterwards.

Programmmatic Updates

To use horizon-shell.

nix run 'git+https://gitlab.horizon-haskell.net/shells/horizon-shell?ref=refs/tags/0.0.7'

See the in-shell help for usage.
