A feature-bug I forgot to report a while ago.
It has been described on the mailinglist (or was
it in my blog or some release announcement I made?)

Fish doesn't pick up stuff like 'fish-guix' from store
without modifications to the path where fish searches
for vendor or sysadmin installed systemwide 'things'
for fish.

I have many more fish packages in a branch which
I want to get into guix, but they are stuck because
of this. Help welcome, otherwise I'll promise to
fix it one day.

Currently the only workaround is to symlink individual files from your
~/.guix-profile/whereever/things/went/ to ~/.config/fish/{approriate subdirs}

Does Fish have an environment variable that can be used to specify the
search path for extensions, similar to BASH_LOADABLES_PATH?  If it does,
we could use that.

Otherwise, perhaps we can consider it an upstream issue in a way?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Late night reply, so I'll be short.
I have some open reading material on how Nix solved this,
which is the only system coming close to our layout. Everyone
else can just point to one of the canonical paths.

I haven't concluded yet if Nix' solution is usable for us
as they sometimes take shortcuts.

I'll post the links within the next 7 days, more likely on
the weekend.

Thanks, goodnight

Long 7 days ;)

Here are the links from my bookmarks, for those who want to look into fixing this:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/24314
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/virtualization/docker/default.nix
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/5331
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/626
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/440
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/shells/fish/default.nix

If it helps, because our zsh integration (for zsh-extensions) isn't that good
either and the links reference some of the Zsh work in Nix:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/programs/zsh/zsh.nix

Hi,

> Fish doesn't pick up stuff like 'fish-guix' from store
> without modifications to the path where fish searches
> for vendor or sysadmin installed systemwide 'things'
> for fish.

I found this old thread after submitting patch #34003.  I think that
patch has probably solved your problem.

I submitted patch #34003 to update fish to 3.0.0.  In that patch, I
enabled fish to add user's and system's profiles to __extra_* variables.
So now fish can load completions and functions from user's and system's
profiles.

$fish_complete_path and $fish_function_path become this on my computer:

#+begin_example
   ~  echo $fish_complete_path | tr ' ' '\n'
  /home/meiyo/.config/fish/completions
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/etc/fish/completions
  /home/meiyo/.guix-profile/etc/fish/completions
  /run/current-system/profile/etc/fish/completions
  /home/meiyo/.guix-profile/share/fish/vendor_completions.d
  /run/current-system/profile/share/fish/vendor_completions.d
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/share/fish/vendor_completions.d
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/share/fish/completions
  /home/meiyo/.local/share/fish/generated_completions

   ~  echo $fish_function_path | tr ' ' '\n'
  /home/meiyo/.config/fish/functions
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/etc/fish/functions
  /home/meiyo/.guix-profile/etc/fish/functions
  /run/current-system/profile/etc/fish/functions
  /home/meiyo/.guix-profile/share/fish/vendor_functions.d
  /run/current-system/profile/share/fish/vendor_functions.d
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/share/fish/vendor_functions.d
  /gnu/store/nd3lkiyz144rwvlhvx9adxhngd5xy16f-fish-3.0.0/share/fish/functions
#+end_example

We can then install fish completions and functions into either user's or
system's profile.  And fish will happily load them.

For example, youtube-dl provides a fish completion:

#+begin_example
  /gnu/store/3sv0ckhpyrxcssrk21s70klw14dz7x1b-youtube-dl-2018.12.17/etc/fish
  └── completions
      └── youtube-dl.fish
#+end_example

After installing youtube-dl into my user profile, youtube-dl command
completion works in fish:

#+begin_example
   ~  youtube-dl --<Hit TAB>
  --abort-on-error  (Abort downloading of further videos…)
  --abort-on-unavailable-fragment  (Abort downloading wh…)
  --add-header  (Specify a custom HTTP header and its va…)
  --add-metadata        (Write metadata to the video file)
  …and 159 more rows
#+end_example

youtube-dl is now in my user profile:

#+begin_example
  /home/meiyo/.guix-profile/etc/fish/
  └── completions
      └── youtube-dl.fish
#+end_example

You can share your packages with us now!

Hi,

Patch #34153 has been merged into Guix.  This issue has been solved in
that patch.  Should we close this bug?

I guess we can close it, done!

Thanks for the heads-up,
