--ignore-same-hash allows ignoring if the same has is used.
This gives the ability to run update-source-version multiple times to
change multiple keys.
Fix version-key, which was not being used to determine the oldVersion
variable.
If $attr.src.drvAttrs.urls is not found, look for
$attr.src.drvAttrs.url since it is being used like that in fetchgit
You can now optionally invoke update-source-versions with:
* --system flag changing the host platform, to be passed dirrectly to Nix commands.
This is useful for binary packages which have different sources for each platform.
* --file flag allowing to change the file to be modified. This is useful for packages
that offer multiple variants, listed in a different file than the derivation itself;
e.g. packages.nix of Sublime Text 3.
* --version-key, which is now a keyword flag instead of a positional argument.
Adds a script to help automatically upgrading packages: this one can
patch name/version attributes like:
version = "50.1.0";
name = "bc-1.06";
... to the given version, and updates the sha256 hash to match.
Usage is:
update-source-version <attr> <new-version> [<new-source-hash>]
where:
- attr is the attribute path of the package
- new-version is the version string to be patched in
- new-source-hash is the optional sha256/etc. hash of the source.
If not given, the script will automatically calculate it.
This is added to a subdirectory where other useful scripts can be added
in the future, like figuring out the newest version from a git repo or
GitHub releases etc.
