Hello Guix!

A few weeks ago Ricardo started writing a Guix Cookbook⁰ based on
material previously published elsewhere, notably on the blog.  The
cookbook made it in to the repo¹, and you’re all welcome to propose new
sections based on your experience with Guix!

The news is that the Cookbook is now on-line and automatically updated
from ‘master’:

  https://guix.gnu.org/cookbook/en/

(The page says “Reference Manual” but it’s a mistake that I’ll fix.)

So I guess we can go ahead and fill in that cookbook!  :-)
Please share what you’d like to see or to write about as a Guix user!

For the record, here are the changes to the config of
berlin.guix.gnu.org to publish the cookbook:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/commit/?id=8897e7bc35cbcd0d6cf60c4a57063cd2dceb7bbe

and the changes to ‘doc/build.scm’:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=cacb5576cc517cba45f69f1fb1551348714d85d0

This is great! :)

I just noticed that about half the packaging tutorial is missing (the
part after the Scheme crash course).

Shouldn't be added?  Maybe Ricardo had a plan in mind.

From the sources:

    @c TODO: Continue the tutorial

So yeah, the plan was to add the rest :) I just don’t have the time to
do this myself.  More important to me was to put *something* out there
that others can more easily edit.

By the way, the original tutorial was published here in Org format:

https://ambrevar.xyz/guix-packaging/index.html

So it's possible to export it to texi with Org.
That should save some work.

Done!

For posterity, here is the process I've used:

- Add the following to .dir-locals.el:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((org-mode
  (org-texinfo-classes ("guix"
                        "@documentencoding AUTO\n@documentlanguage AUTO"
                        ("@subsection %s" "@unnumberedsubsec %s" "@subheading %s"
                         "@appendixsubsec %s")
                        ("@subsubsection %s" "@unnumberedsubsubsec %s" "@subsubheading %s"
                         "@appendixsubsubsec %s")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

- Add "#+TEXINFO_CLASS: guix" to the Org document.  This fixes the
  section mapping.

- M-x load-library RET ox-texinfo RET

- C-c C-e C-b i t (or "M-x org-export-dispath", then enable "Body only"
  and export in texinfo).

The result was really good and needed only a few minor changes:

- Add/remove some @node where it makes sense.
- Remove the @menu entries.  (Can this be set in the export settings?)
- Change the @uref to @xref / @pxref.

Cheers!

I'd like to see a section on real-time audio and JACK or related sound
server. It would be great to show how Guix can be used to make a
reproducible audio / music "appliance".

Fantastic, very curious about this!
