vgo2nix

Convert go.mod files to nixpkgs buildGoPackage compatible deps.nix files

Usage

From the go project directory execute

vgo2nix

This will write a file called deps.nix that is to be used together with an expression like

{ buildGoPackage, fetchFromGitHub }:
buildGoPackage rec {
  name = "vgo2nix-${version}";
  version = "example";
  goPackagePath = "...";  # Incomplete
  src = fetchFromGitHub { ... };  # Incomplete
  goDeps = ./deps.nix;
}
