Hello! If you intend to submit these packages, I would recommend working
directly from the main git repository rather than messing with
GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH. Have a look at the "Running Guix before it is
installed" section in the manual:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Running-Guix-Before-It-Is-Installed
There is a 'pre-inst-env' script that makes testing local changes easy.
Here is my typical workflow (motley gear optional):
# Start with a clean master branch.
$ git checkout master
$ git pull # sometimes "--rebase" or simply `git reset --hard`..
# Create environment with all Guix dependencies.
$ ge guix # "ge" is an alias for `guix environment`...
# If this is a new machine, prepare the sources for this environment.
$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure --localstatedir=/var
# Now compile everything. This is typically done after each `pull`.
$ make -j10
# Phew! Now let's start working on our package.
$ git checkout -b package-foo
<insert matrix gif>
$ ./pre-inst-env guix build foo # installing works too
# It builds! Let's commit it.
$ git add -p
$ git commit
# D'oh! Something was not right.
$ ./pre-inst-env guix edit foo # I don't actually use this, but..
$ ./pre-inst-env guix build foo
# Great, this looks better.
$ git add -p
$ git commit --amend # or --fixup=<commit> for later rebasing..
<repeat last steps 0-20 times for each patch>
# Allright, now we can submit it!
$ mkdir outgoing # Not really necessary, but easier to "clean".
$ git format-patch --cover-letter -n origin/master -o outgoing/
$ edit outgoing/0000-cover-letter.patch
# Cover letter can be omitted, but is a good way to give some background
# info, raise questions, etc. Now, let's send it to open a bug report.
$ git send-email --to guix-patches@gnu.org outgoing/0000-cover-letter.patch
# Now we have a bug URL! Let's send the remainder there.
$ rm outgoing/0000-cover-letter.patch
$ git send-email --to NNNNN@debbugs.gnu.org outgoing/*.patch
You can also make ~/.config/guix/latest a soft link to your git checkout
and largely avoid the need for `./pre-inst-env`. I don't actually do
that on my main development machine, since I need the `guix` command to
always work, and my work tree is rarely "sane" :P instead, I manage my
entire profile through `./pre-inst-env` and run `guix pull` once per
week or so. I've been meaning to try git-worktree(1) instead.
Hope it helps! Always interesting to see other workflows :)

Document shows that the following code is needed:
sudo ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild
it seem that normal "guix build" will broken when I run the above code and close it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
#+TITLE: Feng Shu's guix devel workflow
If you just want to add a new guix package or upgrade a exist guix package,
The below workflow may be useful.
If you want to hack guix's other code, I suggest you just leave and read
guix manual :-)
* Fetch guix.git
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
cd ~/project
git clone git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix.git
#+END_EXAMPLE
* Install emacs
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
guix package -i emacs
#+END_EXAMPLE
* Install emacs packages
1. guix
2. counsel
3. swiper
4. gitpatch
5. magit
* Config emacs
1. guix-directory is your *guix git repo directory*
2. "~/.config/guix/latest" is the latest guix you have install.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package guix
:ensure nil
:config
(setq guix-directory "~/project/guix")
(add-hook 'after-init-hook 'global-guix-prettify-mode)
(add-hook 'scheme-mode-hook 'guix-devel-mode)
(with-eval-after-load 'geiser-guile
;; NOTE: "~/.config/guix/latest/" is invaild,
;; use "~/.config/guix/latest" instead.
(add-to-list 'geiser-guile-load-path
(concat (file-name-directory (locate-library "geiser.el"))
"scheme/guile"))
(add-to-list 'geiser-guile-load-path "~/.config/guix/latest")))
#+END_SRC
* Hack code
I use package emacs-exwm-x as an example:
1. Open "~/project/guix/gnu/packages/emacs.scm" with emacs
2. Hack code
1. Type "C-c C-z" (geiser-mode-switch-to-repl), A new guile buffer will open.
2. Type "C-c C-z" again, you will switch to emacs.scm file buffer.
3. Type "C-c . u" to load guix module (guix-devel-use-module), 1-3 second is need.
4. Type "C-s" to search emacs-exwm-x's define-public and jump to it.
5. Type "C-c C-c" or "C-M-x" to eval emacs-exwm-x's define-public
6. Error is found, eval switch-window's define-public and eval emacs-exwm-x's define-public again.
For emacs-exwm-x depend switch-window
7. Hack emacs-exwm-x's define-public ....
8. Type "C-c . d" to download emacs-exwm-x's source and get sha256 string.
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
(sha256
(base32
"1ny13i82fb72917jgl0ndwjg1x6l9f8gfhcx7cwlwhh5saq23mvy"))
#+END_EXAMPLE
9. Hack finished ...
10. (Importent) Type "C-c C-c" or "C-M-x" to eval emacs-exwm-x's define-public
11. Type "C-c . b" to build newest emacs-exwm-x :-)
12. Hack, deal with build problem ...
3. Commit and send-patch
1. I use counsel-git-log to find a history commit message as commit template :-)
2. git pull --rebase (make sure the patch we generate can am to guix master)
3. I use magit-format-patch to generate patch file.
4. I use gitpatch-mail command to send patch to guix-patches@gnu.org
it use message-mode or gnus.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package gitpatch
:bind (("C-c m" . gitpatch-mail))
:ensure nil
:config
(setq gitpatch-mail-function 'gnus-msg-mail)
(setq gitpatch-mail-attach-patch-key "C-c i")
(setq gitpatch-mail-database
'("guix-patches@gnu.org"
"emms-help@gnu.org"
"emacs-orgmode@gnu.org"
"emacs-devel@gnu.org")))
#+END_SRC

If you’re using Guix then the daemon should be running anyway. This can
be done with the command above, but often people will enable a service
once and then keep it active instead of starting and stopping the daemon
manually.
