Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 9/9] import/json: json->code: Handle files with more
 than one definition.
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2020 01:01:11 +0200

With these last few changes it’s now possible to have multiple
definitions in a JSON array:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[
  {
    "name": "myhello",
    "version": "2.10",
    "source": "mirror://gnu/hello/hello-2.10.tar.gz",
    "build-system": "gnu",
    "home-page": "https://www.gnu.org/software/hello/",
    "synopsis": "Hello, GNU world: An example GNU package",
    "description": "GNU Hello prints a greeting.",
    "license": "GPL-3.0+",
    "native-inputs": ["gettext"]
  },
  {
    "name": "hello2",
    "version": "2.10",
    "source": "mirror://gnu/hello/hello-2.10.tar.gz",
    "build-system": "gnu",
    "home-page": "https://www.gnu.org/software/hello/",
    "synopsis": "Hello, GNU world: An example GNU package",
    "description": "GNU Hello prints a greeting.",
    "license": "GPL-3.0+",
    "inputs": ["myhello"],
    "native-inputs": ["gettext"]
  }
]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

“hello2” has “myhello” as an input.  When this file is passed to “guix
install -f” both packages will be built and “hello2” will be installed
into the profile as it is the last package in the list.
