Logchecker package

Usage

$ git clone https://git.numtide.com/nix-packaging/logchecker
$ cd logchecker
$ nix build .#
$ ./result/bin/logchecker analyze cdrip.log

How this package was created

Logchecker currently has dependencies locked to php7. As this version is end-of-life (no security updates) and no longer part of nixpkgs, we upgraded the composer.lock to php8.

$ git clone https://github.com/OPSnet/Logchecker
$ cd Logchecker
$ git checkout 0.11.1
$ nix-shell -p phpPackages.composer --command 'composer update'
$ git commit -m 'update to php8'
$ git format-patch HEAD^1

The resulting 0001-update-to-php8.patch is part of this repository.

Afterwards we used composer2nix to generate a nix package like this. (This was run in the Logchecker directory)

git clone https://github.com/svanderburg/composer2nix/
nix-build ./composer2nix/release.nix -A package.x86_64-linux
./result/bin/composer2nix

This generated composer-env.nix, composer-env.nix and default.nix, that we copied as well.

Afterwards we created logchecker.nix, which overrides the source with a fetchFromGitHub pointing to the latest release as well as applying the php8 patch and added a flake.lock/flake.nix to load this package.
