As far as I see it, guix environment is what you get from a virtualenv,
plus a good deal more. I start more complex programs nowadays by pulling
in their dependencies in a small startup file. The following is my
actual command for running IntelliJ with custom libraries and the
correct libstdc++:
exec -a "$0" guix environment --ad-hoc openjdk@14 openjdk@14:jdk gcc-toolchain@10.2 -- bash -c "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/home/arne/.guix-profile/lib:$(realpath ~/.guix-profile/lib/libsqlite3.so):/gnu/store/qj38f3vi4q1d7z30hkpaxyajv49rwamb-gcc-10.2.0-lib/lib/:."' IDEA_JDK="$(dirname $(dirname $(realpath $(which java))))" exec -a "$0" bash -x idea-IU-193.6911.18/bin/idea.sh'
I used the environment for something closer to your example for actual
day-work to get a local environment with java 8 and documented that
briefly:
https://www.draketo.de/software/guix-work.html#org07ebedd
# download and unpack tomcat and enter the folder, then call
guix environment --ad-hoc icedtea@3.7.0
bin/startup.sh
I know that this 3-liner does not look so awesome, but it is crazy how
many problems it can solve :-)
Best wishes,
Arne
