Blightmud is a terminal client for connecting to Multi User Dungeon (MUD) games. It is written in Rust and supports TLS, GMCP, MSDP, MCCP2, tab completion, text searching and a split view for scrolling. Blightmud can be customized with Lua scripting for aliases, triggers, timers, customized status bars, and more. Blightmud supports several accessibility features including an optional built-in text-to-speech engine and a screen reader friendly mode. For nixpkgs it is largely a standard derivation for a rust project using `rustPlatform.buildRustPackage`. There is some customization required for the optional text-to-speech (TTS) engine support. In this case the derivation must also set the `LIBCLANG_PATH` and customize `BINDGEN_EXTRA_CLANG_ARGS` in order for a required crate to be able to `rust-bindgen` the `libspeechd` dependency it wraps. Lastly the derivation has to skip some integration-style tests that don't play nicely with the nixpkgs build environment - the majority of unit tests work so they are left running in the check phase. Since the TTS support brings in heavy dependencies, but is a useful accessibility feature, the Blightmud derivation is added to `all-packages.nix` twice: 1. the `blightmud` attribute builds a configuration without TTS support. 2. the `blightmud-tts` attribute builds a configuration _with_ TTS support. The new Blightmud derivation is placed in `pkgs/games/blightmud/` following the precedent set by another packaged GUI-based MUD client, `mudlet` with `pkgs/games/mudlet/`. |
