# `dhallPackageToNix` is a utility function to take a Nixpkgs Dhall package
|
|
# (created with a function like `dhallPackages.buildDhallDirectoryPackage`)
|
|
# and read it in as a Nix expression.
|
|
#
|
|
# This function is similar to `dhallToNix`, but takes a Nixpkgs Dhall package
|
|
# as input instead of raw Dhall code.
|
|
#
|
|
# Note that this uses "import from derivation" (IFD), meaning that Nix will
|
|
# perform a build during the evaluation phase if you use this
|
|
# `dhallPackageToNix` utility. It is not possible to use `dhallPackageToNix`
|
|
# in Nixpkgs, since the Nixpkgs Hydra doesn't allow IFD.
