## How to install Cataclysm DDA {#how-to-install-cataclysm-dda}
|
|
|
|
To install the latest stable release of Cataclysm DDA to your profile, execute
|
|
`nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA cataclysm-dda`. For the curses build (build
|
|
without tiles), install `cataclysmDDA.stable.curses`. Note: `cataclysm-dda` is
|
|
an alias to `cataclysmDDA.stable.tiles`.
|
|
|
|
If you like access to a development build of your favorite git revision,
|
|
override `cataclysm-dda-git` (or `cataclysmDDA.git.curses` if you like curses
|
|
build):
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
cataclysm-dda-git.override {
|
|
version = "YYYY-MM-DD";
|
|
rev = "YOUR_FAVORITE_REVISION";
|
|
sha256 = "CHECKSUM_OF_THE_REVISION";
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The sha256 checksum can be obtained by
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
nix-prefetch-url --unpack "https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/archive/${YOUR_FAVORITE_REVISION}.tar.gz"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The default configuration directory is `~/.cataclysm-dda`. If you prefer
|
|
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/cataclysm-dda`, override the derivation:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
cataclysm-dda.override {
|
|
useXdgDir = true;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Important note for overriding packages {#important-note-for-overriding-packages}
|
|
|
|
After applying `overrideAttrs`, you need to fix `passthru.pkgs` and
|
|
`passthru.withMods` attributes either manually or by using `attachPkgs`:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
let
|
|
# You enabled parallel building.
|
|
myCDDA = cataclysm-dda-git.overrideAttrs (_: {
|
|
enableParallelBuilding = true;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
# Unfortunately, this refers to the package before overriding and
|
|
# parallel building is still disabled.
|
|
badExample = myCDDA.withMods (_: []);
|
|
|
|
inherit (cataclysmDDA) attachPkgs pkgs wrapCDDA;
|
|
|
|
# You can fix it by hand
|
|
goodExample1 = myCDDA.overrideAttrs (old: {
|
|
passthru = old.passthru // {
|
|
pkgs = pkgs.override { build = goodExample1; };
|
|
withMods = wrapCDDA goodExample1;
|
|
};
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
# or by using a helper function `attachPkgs`.
|
|
goodExample2 = attachPkgs pkgs myCDDA;
|
|
in
|
|
|
|
# badExample # parallel building disabled
|
|
# goodExample1.withMods (_: []) # parallel building enabled
|
|
goodExample2.withMods (_: []) # parallel building enabled
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Customizing with mods {#customizing-with-mods}
|
|
|
|
To install Cataclysm DDA with mods of your choice, you can use `withMods`
|
|
attribute:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
cataclysm-dda.withMods (mods: with mods; [
|
|
tileset.UndeadPeople
|
|
])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All mods, soundpacks, and tilesets available in nixpkgs are found in
|
|
`cataclysmDDA.pkgs`.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example to modify existing mods and/or add more mods not available
|
|
in nixpkgs:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
let
|
|
customMods = self: super: lib.recursiveUpdate super {
|
|
# Modify existing mod
|
|
tileset.UndeadPeople = super.tileset.UndeadPeople.overrideAttrs (old: {
|
|
# If you like to apply a patch to the tileset for example
|
|
patches = [ ./path/to/your.patch ];
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
# Add another mod
|
|
mod.Awesome = cataclysmDDA.buildMod {
|
|
modName = "Awesome";
|
|
version = "0.x";
|
|
src = fetchFromGitHub {
|
|
owner = "Someone";
|
|
repo = "AwesomeMod";
|
|
rev = "...";
|
|
hash = "...";
|
|
};
|
|
# Path to be installed in the unpacked source (default: ".")
|
|
modRoot = "contents/under/this/path/will/be/installed";
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
# Add another soundpack
|
|
soundpack.Fantastic = cataclysmDDA.buildSoundPack {
|
|
# ditto
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
# Add another tileset
|
|
tileset.SuperDuper = cataclysmDDA.buildTileSet {
|
|
# ditto
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
in
|
|
cataclysm-dda.withMods (mods: with mods.extend customMods; [
|
|
tileset.UndeadPeople
|
|
mod.Awesome
|
|
soundpack.Fantastic
|
|
tileset.SuperDuper
|
|
])
|
|
```
