Hi,

I know this goes beyond the scope of a forum for ARTIQ discussion, but since nix is the preferred method for installation, I believe this might be a relevant problem for many users.

So, my question is: What is the preferred method for installing / incorporating custom python packages into a nix shell? I'm thinking about setuptools-installers and packages from PyPi.

There's documentation about the issue on the nix / nixpkgs website, but I wonder if anyone has figured out a robust solution.

Thanks.

Many things are available in nixpkgs already. If not you need to package them with python3Packages.buildPythonPackage, which is usually not too troublesome for simple packages.
