Subject: Question about package environment variables
Date: Wed, 18 May 2016 14:24:13 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87posjxm0i.fsf@mailerver.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me> (raw)
Good Day everyone,
I would like to know is it possible to set any environment variable to
any value from guix package. The usecase I am thinking of is for a
project. Let's say you had a guix package file to automate and document
project dependencies.
Let's say I wanted to declare a variable in project package file so that
"eval `guix environment --search-paths ...`" would set up the
environment with the needed variables plus the ones I wanted.
Example environment variable;
export MSG='Hello world!'
Thanks in advance for any help or info.
Sincerely,
--
