Haskell-ide-engine: cannot satisfy -package-id base-4.10.1.0

[newhoggy]

On my machine:

$  stack new moo
$  cd moo
$  stack build
$  code .

In the Haskell HIE (moo) output, I get this error:

hie: <command line>: cannot satisfy -package-id base-4.10.1.0
    (use -v for more information)

I am using Macos

Similarly for one of my bigger projects:

Using hoogle db at: /Users/jky/.hoogle/default-haskell-5.0.17.hoo

what version of stack are you using? what resolver do you end up with in the project?

[newhoggy]

$ stack --version | head
Version 1.7.1 x86_64
Compiled with:
- Cabal-2.2.0.1
- Glob-0.9.2
- HUnit-1.6.0.0
- QuickCheck-2.11.3
- StateVar-1.1.1.0
- aeson-1.2.4.0
- aeson-compat-0.3.7.1
- annotated-wl-pprint-0.7.0

[newhoggy]

This was for the stack generated template project:

$ pwd
/Users/jky/wrk/arbor-networks/moo
$ grep "^resolver" stack.yaml
resolver: lts-11.8

This is for the bigger project:

$ pwd
/Users/jky/wrk/arbor-networks/gan-feeds-client
$ head -n 1 stack.yaml
resolver: lts-10.10

haskell-ide-engine was built with:

$ git clone https://github.com/haskell/haskell-ide-engine --recursive
$ cd haskell-ide-engine
$ make build-all

[newhoggy]

Looks like I needed to set this:

"languageServerHaskell.useHieWrapper": true

[newhoggy]

Can the documentation be updated to include this?

Thanks!

[newhoggy]

I'm also okay to close this ticket.

[soulomoon]

same problem working with LanguageClient-neovim, how do I make the equivalent changes there of "languageServerHaskell.useHieWrapper": true

[Anrock]

@soulomoon afaik wrapper is a part of vscode plugin. In neovim you have to select proper hie version yourself.

In case you're working only on stack-based projects (like me), installing hie via make build-copy-compiler-tool and using stack exec hie --lsp as start command for language client in init.vim will put decision on stack's shoulders and work automagically.

[alanz]

Perhaps we should write the wrapper in haskell as an exe, so it can be shared among clients. This is basically the simplest version of the concierge function we have discussed before in the issues.
