`nix develop` now yields the toolchain the repository actually needs — Node,
`git`, `tea`, and `curl` — giving a declarative answer to "what do I need to
work on this", which the repository previously specified nowhere.
The shell takes its Node from the package's `passthru` rather than naming
`pkgs.nodejs` a second time, so development and the shipped artifact cannot
drift onto different majors and cannot be set independently. `package.nix`
declares that `passthru` as an interface rather than leaving the shell to read
an incidental build attribute; it does not enter the derivation, so the store
path is unchanged.
The checks output aliases the package, so `nix flake check` builds it and
thereby runs both its verification phases instead of being a silent no-op. No
per-stage checks: the only stage adding coverage is the full typecheck, which
spans `test/` and `bench/` and would drag the benchmark harness into the
derivation's inputs, undoing the source filtering. It stays in CI.
The shell deliberately omits `gitea-axi` itself. The benchmark's arm resolves
that binary by name off PATH and must get the locally built `dist/main.js`, so
supplying the packaged one would silently substitute the wrong artifact.
Add a flake at the repository root exposing gitea-axi as a package, with the
derivation in its own callable expression so it stays buildable outside a flake
context and usable in an overlay unchanged.
Dependencies are fetched from the lockfile's integrity fields via importNpmLock
rather than a committed fixed-output hash, and the version is read from the
package manifest, so neither a dependency bump nor a release edits any Nix
expression. The source is an explicit allowlist, keeping ADR, spec, task and
bench churn out of the derivation's inputs.
The installed binary is wrapped with --suffix PATH per ADR 0018: the operator's
own git and tea win, and the closure's are a fresh-machine fallback.
Two things differ from the plan. Systems coverage is three targets, not four:
nixpkgs 26.11 dropped x86_64-darwin and now throws on evaluating it, which
would break nix flake show and nix flake check for every system at once. And
buildNpmPackage supplies no check hook, so doCheck alone was silently inert and
produced a green build whose tests never ran; running the fast tier needs an
explicit checkPhase.
