9222 :: how to have same version of dependencies on two different machines?

• severak (orginal) [2022-06-10T23:54:47+02:00] view original

  In February I stopped work on my lunarender project.

  Today I wanted to setup demo server but I was stopped by not being able to compile it on linux.

  I developed it on windows with nim 1.6.2 and then I tried to compile it on linux (with nim 1.6.2). I got some error messages - it looks like there was some namespace collision.

  I tried to set same version of nim on both machines via choosenim, which probably worked. See linux log:

  
  severak@kapybara:~/lunarender3$ nimble --version
  nimble v0.13.1 compiled at 2022-05-05 01:16:54

  and windows log:

  
  C:\severak\lunarender3>nimble --version

  Run

  But dependencies of project (installed via nimble install) are not the same version. Build works on Windows:

  Is there any way how to synchronize dependencies version on these two different environments? Can somebody try to build my program?

  I was able to manually tweak which version of pixie will be used in build manually editing nim c call generated by nimble and displayed in error message. It's little step in right direction.

  Nimble does support "lock files" for this, please check it out.

  I just got your program to build on Linux with fresh git clones at HEAD of all its transitive deps with a few minor fix-ups. { These may not be the best workarounds/fixes, but they compile, anyway. :-) }

  So, you may want to make similar-ish updates to get it working again, then update all your dep versions to be the most recent, and then, to avoid future woes, introduce a "version lock file" situation as Araq mentioned.

  After some fidddling here and there (manually installing nimpb, tweaking built process a bit), Cblake's method worked. Thanks a lot for posting it!

  However, I needed to compile nimble on both linux and windows, which is not exactly user friendly.
