# zig.hook {#zig-hook}
|
|
|
|
[Zig](https://ziglang.org/) is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal and reusable software.
|
|
|
|
In Nixpkgs, `zig.hook` overrides the default build, check and install phases.
|
|
|
|
## Example code snippet {#zig-hook-example-code-snippet}
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
{ lib
|
|
, stdenv
|
|
, zig_0_11
|
|
}:
|
|
|
|
stdenv.mkDerivation {
|
|
# . . .
|
|
|
|
nativeBuildInputs = [
|
|
zig_0_11.hook
|
|
];
|
|
|
|
zigBuildFlags = [ "-Dman-pages=true" ];
|
|
|
|
dontUseZigCheck = true;
|
|
|
|
# . . .
|
|
}
|
