See review comments for some improvements.

+stdenv.mkDerivation rec {

name is automatically constructed from pname-version.

Suggested change

name = "airwindows-${version}";

pname = "airwindows";

@OPNA2608 I seem to have messed up the push, sorry.
I'm working on getting the new fork to build, and once will than push the fixes.

I had some trouble pushing to this branch, so I made #123954

You can add the unfree license here and keep the main derivation MIT.

Suggested change

meta.license = stdenv.lib.licenses.unfree;

};

Thanks for the feedback, I'm working on it.
I think you mean line 23, in vst-sdk, right?

Err yea, apologies.

I see this duplicated over in the already existing airwave distribution, just in a different version.

nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/audio/airwave/default.nix

Lines 16 to 26 in 84cf00f

vst-sdk = stdenv.mkDerivation rec {

name = "vstsdk368_08_11_2017_build_121";

src = requireFile {

name = "${name}.zip";

url = "http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developers.html";

sha256 = "e0f235d8826d70f1ae0ae5929cd198acae1ecff74612fde5c60cbfb45c2f4a70";

};

nativeBuildInputs = [ unzip ];

installPhase = "cp -r . $out";

meta.license = stdenv.lib.licenses.unfree;

};

And a PR with the SDK part updated to the very version you're requiring here, #82380

I think I'd rather see this as a separate derivation, but there were objections to that a long while ago (#10006). I wonder if these still exist? Just commenting on this situation, not requesting any change in particular.

magnetophon · 2020-05-28T11:25:37Z

I just found https://github.com/laserbat/airwindows, created a few hours ago.
I wonder if I should switch.
What do the creators think? @laserbat @ech2

laserbat · 2020-06-03T23:58:29Z

Hi @magnetophon

I don't think it would b a good idea to switch, as my fork is for personal use and might not be 100% compatible with originals.

I can, however, make a branch that contains no changes other than improved build system for linux. Would that be helpful?

magnetophon · 2020-06-05T11:11:15Z

@laserbat Thanks for the feedback and the offer.
I don't know if it would be helpful.
I guess it depends on how up to date it is kept and how much it improves the build system.

laserbat · 2020-06-05T12:04:20Z

Well, current build system for linux doesn't really work without some patching and even with patches provided by some people in pull requests it has certain issues (mainly very slow build time). I rewrote the cmake setup so that's it's quick and painless to build and doesn't need any changes besides downloading VST SDK files.

Anyway, here's the branch in question https://github.com/laserbat/airwindows/tree/new_build

I do plan to keep it up to date. I'll set up a cron script that merges new changes from upstream into this branch, since upstream author only changes source files and not build configuration.

Hope this helps.

magnetophon · 2020-06-05T12:13:20Z

That sounds really good, thank you!
I'm finishing up some other stuff and then I'll base this package on your branch.

magnetophon · 2020-06-05T19:44:27Z

@laserbat
When I try to build that tree, I get:

-- Configuring done
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:19 (add_library):

And then a whole lot more similar lines.
Any idea?

magnetophon · 2020-06-06T10:31:22Z

@laserbat I just noticed airwindows/airwindows@3c0d151
So it seems he does take external input, at least from you! ;)
Have you considered doing a PR with your build changes? (assuming the above error is a NixOS issue)

laserbat · 2020-06-09T19:53:49Z

@magnetophon unfortunately he is too busy to work on the build system right now. I offered him help, but he didn't seem to have the time.

And the build fails because you need to download VST SDK first, there's a script named get_vst_sdk.sh included in the LinuxVST folder.

Unfortunately Steinberg are really vigilant in DMCAing anybody who has this code in their repository, so it has to be downloaded every time before building.

magnetophon · 2020-06-10T01:51:42Z

@laserbat Thanks. I still can't get it to build though, sorry.

When I run the commands in that script and then build, I get:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:12 (add_subdirectory):
  add_subdirectory given source "include/vstsdk" which is not an existing
  directory.


CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:13 (add_airwindows_plugin):
  Unknown CMake command "add_airwindows_plugin".


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

When I change the commands to use "include/vstsdk" instead, I get:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:12 (add_subdirectory):
  The source directory

    /tmp/nix-build-airwindows-unstable-2020-06-05.drv-0/source/plugins/LinuxVST/include/vstsdk

  does not contain a CMakeLists.txt file.


CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:13 (add_airwindows_plugin):
  Unknown CMake command "add_airwindows_plugin".


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

laserbat · 2020-06-10T10:53:00Z

My bad! I fixed this issue

magnetophon · 2020-06-10T11:09:57Z

Ah, yes, now it builds. Thank you, I thought I was going crazy!
Any chance you will write an install target in the makefile?

magnetophon · 2020-06-10T12:36:14Z

@laserbat I installed manually, but Ardour has now blacklisted all of them.
How do I find out why?
