@etu @talyz I'm having a little issue with this one... any ideas?

~/nixpkgs> nix-build -E 'with import ~/nixpkgs {}; php.withExtensions (e: [ e.pdo_sqlsrv ])'                                                                                                        
error: attribute 'pdo' missing, at /home/aaron/nixpkgs/lib/strings-with-deps.nix:67:71
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)

pdo_sqlsrv needs the pdo extension, so php refuse to build it without it 🙂

Try:

nix-build -E 'with import ~/nixpkgs {}; php.withExtensions (e: [ e.pdo e.pdo_sqlsrv ])'

Verified pdo_sqlsrv works with php72, php73, and php74 by executing a simple php script to hit a database.

@GrahamcOfBorg build php72.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv php73.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv php74.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv
@GrahamcOfBorg build php72.extensions.sqlsrv php73.extensions.sqlsrv php74.extensions.sqlsrv

Yeah, the error message is sadly pretty cryptic, since it originates in strings-with-deps.nix. We should try to catch it earlier and say something a bit more informational than attribute xxx missing..

This pull request has been mentioned on NixOS Discourse. There might be relevant details there:

@GrahamcOfBorg build php72.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv php73.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv php74.extensions.pdo_sqlsrv
@GrahamcOfBorg build php72.extensions.sqlsrv php73.extensions.sqlsrv php74.extensions.sqlsrv

I don't have a mac so can't effectively troubleshoot the issue... 🤷‍♂️

Look good @etu and @talyz?

@aanderse It builds just fine in my mac, so whatever the build error was, it was probably just a CI glitch - they seem rather frequent on darwin..

In that case I'm merging based on your feedback 👍
Thank you @talyz 🎉
