2020-03-01 Remove default values for Nix expression parametersWilliam Carroll5-16/+5
I'm not sure if this commit breaks everything in my monorepo. I think it will. Why am I doing this? Perhaps it's a bad idea. I don't fully understand how readTree works. My ignorance is costing me hours of time spent debugging. In an effort to better understand readTree, I'm removing the default values for my Nix expression parameters, which I believe have preventing errors from surfacing.
2020-02-12 Nixify simple_vim ideaWilliam Carroll2-0/+108
I previously had an alias defined as `simple_vim`, which would start an instance of Vim with a bare bones config. I had a to-do to Nixify it. That is now (mostly) to-done. When I try and install it with `nix-env -f ~/briefcase -iA tools.simple_vim`, Nix fails and says that pkgs.stdenv is undefined. I will need to fix this one day, but it is neither important nor urgent...
2020-02-12 Tidy up structure of briefcaseWilliam Carroll12-0/+550
I had a spare fifteen minutes and decided that I should tidy up my monorepo. The work of tidying up is not finished; this is a small step in the right direction. TL;DR - Created a tools directory - Created a scratch directory (see README.md for more information) - Added README.md to third_party - Renamed delete_dotfile_symlinks -> symlinkManager - Packaged symlinkManager as an executable symlink-mgr using buildGo
