;;; Commentary:
;;;
;;; Elm draws a sharp distinction between "projects" with `{"type":"package"}`
;;; vs. `{"type":"application"}` in the "elm.json" file: see
;;; <https://github.com/elm/compiler/blob/master/docs/elm.json/package.md> and
;;; <https://github.com/elm/compiler/blob/master/docs/elm.json/application.md>.
;;; For now, `elm-build-system` is designed for "package"s: packaging
;;; "application"s requires ad-hoc replacements for some phases---but see
;;; `patch-application-dependencies`, which helps to work around a known issue
;;; discussed below. It would be nice to add more streamlined support for
;;; "application"s one we have more experience building them in Guix. For
;;; example, we could incorporate the `uglifyjs` advice from
;;; <https://github.com/elm/compiler/blob/master/hints/optimize.md>.
;;;
;;; We want building an Elm "package" to produce:
;;;
;;; - a "docs.json" file with extracted documentation; and
;;;
;;; - an "artifacts.dat" file with compilation results for use in building
;;; "package"s and "application"s.
;;;
;;; Unfortunately, there isn't an entry point to the Elm compiler that builds
;;; those files directly. Building with `elm make` does something different,
;;; more oriented toward development, testing, and building "application"s.
;;; We work around this limitation by staging the "package" we're building as
;;; though it were already installed in ELM_HOME, generating a trivial Elm
;;; "application" that depends on the "package", and building the
;;; "application", which causes the files for the "package" to be built.
;;;
;;; Much of the ceremony involved is to avoid using `elm` in ways that would
;;; make it try to do network IO beyond the bare minimum functionality for
;;; which we've patched a replacement into our `elm`. On the other hand, we
;;; get to take advantage of the very regular structure required of Elm
;;; packages.
;;;
;;; *Known issue:* Elm itself supports multiple versions of "package"s
;;; coexisting simultaneously under ELM_HOME, but we do not support this yet.
;;; Sometimes, parallel versions coexisting causes `elm` to try to write to
;;; built "artifacts.dat" files. For now, two workarounds are possible:
;;;
;;; - Use `patch-application-dependencies` to rewrite an "application"'s
;;; "elm.json" file to refer to the versions of its inputs actually
;;; packaged in Guix.
;;;
;;; - Use a Guix package transformation to rewrite your "application"'s
;;; dependencies recursively, so that only one version of each Elm
;;; "package" is included in your "application"'s build environment.
;;;
;;; Patching `elm` more extensively---perhaps adding an `elm guix`
;;; subcommand`---might let us address these issues more directly.
;;;
;;; Code:
;;;
