Motivation for this change

samurai is a ninja-compatible build tool written in C99 with a focus on
simplicity, speed, and portability.

Will need some plumbing work to be used automagically in nixpkgs like we
do with ninja (setup-hook to start), but still nice to have packaged for
anyone interested in using now that 1.0 has been released.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Notes in case folks are interested/find it useful:


Possible issues preventing replacing ninja w/samu (regardless of whether that's desired, not here to tackle that):

When used with meson, may want to disable terminal escapes (color diagnostics), see README.

With some patches in recent git, compdb is added! Leaving for a separate PR, but if anyone is interested I've put together needed bits to use samu for build instead of ninja (various motivations, but especially interesting for much reduced dep tree (notably no python needed-- which for nixpkgs might be useful for slimmer bootstrapping):

Anyway, for the curious/interested: https://github.com/dtzWill/nixpkgs/tree/experimental/samurai-setup-hook .
