Getting can't find soure for Build_doctests error. about cabal-doctest HOT 12 CLOSED

@wpoosanguansit you might have a typo, do you have your package somewhere publicly viewable?

EDIT: duh, I made a typo in a word typo.

@phadej thanks for your help. Unfortunately, we don't have it in a publicly viewable project. Below are the two package and stack yaml files we are using. Thanks again for your help.

package.yaml.txt
stack.yaml.txt

I don't see anything obviously wrong with those.

You could try a version in #48 which would log the location of generated Build_doctests file. (I though have no idea how make stack to make custom setup verbose, --cabal-verbose doesn't seem to do the trick). Or you could try to find . -name 'Build_depends.hs to see if it's created at all.

find didn't return any result. So the file was not generated at all I think. Also, i did use the commit you mentioned. I also didn't see any print out that is different from my earlier stack test runs. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

main = do
    defaultMainGeneratingProtos "src/System/Proto"
    defaultMainWithDoctests "doctests"

That's definitely incorrect. You might take a look into adding hooks with http://hackage.haskell.org/package/cabal-doctest-1.0.6/docs/Distribution-Extra-Doctest.html#v:addDoctestsUserHook

Look how defaultMainWithDoctests or defaultMainAutoconfWithDoctests are implemented.

from cabal-doctest.

I do see this in the doc:

defaultMainWithDoctests Source #

:: String	
doctests test-suite name
-> IO ()	 
A default main with doctests:

import Distribution.Extra.Doctest
       (defaultMainWithDoctests)

main :: IO ()
main = defaultMainWithDoctests "doctests"

And I do have this:

import Distribution.Extra.Doctest ( defaultMainWithDoctests )
import Data.ProtoLens.Setup

main :: IO ()
main = do
    defaultMainGeneratingProtos "src/System/Proto"
    defaultMainWithDoctests "doctests"

defaultMainWithDoctests "doctests" will get run, right? I have to apologize that I didn't see what is missing yet. Thanks for your help.

from cabal-doctest.

I'm pretty sure that defaultMainWithDoctests "doctests" isn't run. Or if it is, it doesn't do anything reasonable.

from cabal-doctest.

Whats your test-suite name for doctests in the Cabal file? In the pkg doc case, it is "doctests".

I am so sorry @alissa-tung that I have stop working on the code awhile back and I totally lost the hd that this project was on from encryption. Thanks for your help.

You're welcome and sorry to hear that. I ran into this issue because I initially use the name in the example instead the test-suite of the package I am working on and after I made CI passing I thought I can help if it can be the reason in this issue. Hoping someone who indexed the issues in the future can save some time :)
