Ghcide: Put ghcide on Hackage

[ndmitchell]

hie-bios is now on Hackage. Could we upload hie-core to Hackage too? It would make installation massively simpler. I have a room of people trying to install it, could that be done?

[cocreature]

Sounds like a good plan and I’m happy to take care of it but I’d like @hurryabit to confirm that he’s okay with that first.

[ndmitchell]

Also would be good to release the extension on the VS Code marketplace.

[cocreature]

It’s up https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hie-core :tada: I’ll look into publishing the VSCode extension next week.

[ndmitchell]

Final step would be adding it to Stackage, once it's hie-bios is on there: https://github.com/mpickering/hie-bios/issues/27

[ndmitchell]

I've also had a request from a bunch of people to split hie-core into a separate repo. I leave that to your discretion (but avoiding asp run would be super nice).

[cocreature]

I’d like to figure out a new name first (as I mentioned elsewhere, suggestions welcome. Going back to haskell-ide-core doesn’t seem very satisfying and is still very close to hie) but apart from that I think we are at a point where splitting it out would be quite reasonable.

[ndmitchell]

I've actually grown quite attached to hie-core... Could be ghc-ide-core? Or even just ghc-ide? (Then there would be ghc, ghci, ghcid and we could even do it ghcide)

[domenkozar]

ghcide seems like a fine one letter improvement to ghcid

[cocreature]

Alright, let’s go with ghcide. I’ll do the renaming next week and try to find the time to do the repo move.

[cocreature]

I just uploaded ghcide to Hackage https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghcide and deprecated the hie-core package. Given that we have #30 for the VSCode extension I’m closing this for now. I want things to stabilize a bit more before I move it to stackage.
