## Stack integration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Stack manages GHC versions internally by default. In order to make it use ghcup installed
|
||||||
|
GHC versions there are two strategies.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Strategy 1: System GHC (works on all stack versions)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can instruct stack to use "system" GHC versions (whatever is in PATH). To do so,
|
||||||
|
run the following commands:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
stack config set install-ghc false --global
|
||||||
|
stack config set system-ghc true --global
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Strategy 2: Stack hooks (new, recommended)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since stack 2.9.1 you can customize the installation logic of GHC completely, see: https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml_configuration/#ghc-installation-customisation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We can use this to simply invoke ghcup whenever stack is trying to install/discover a GHC versions. This
|
||||||
|
is done via placing a shell script at `~/.stack/hooks/ghc-install.sh` and making it executable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The ghcup bootstrap script asks you during installation whether you want to install this shell script. You can also
|
||||||
|
install/update it manually like so:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
mkdir -p ~/.stack/hooks/
|
||||||
|
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/haskell/ghcup-hs/master/scripts/hooks/stack/ghc-install.sh \
|
||||||
|
> ~/.stack/hooks/ghc-install.sh
|
||||||
|
chmod +x ~/.stack/hooks/ghc-install.sh
|
||||||
|
# hooks are only run when 'system-ghc: false'
|
||||||
|
stack config set system-ghc false --global
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default, when the hook fails for whatever reason, stack will fall back to its own installation logic. To disable
|
||||||
|
this, run `stack config set install-ghc false --global`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Windows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On windows, you may find the following config options useful too:
|
||||||
|
`skip-msys`, `extra-path`, `extra-include-dirs`, `extra-lib-dirs`.

||||||
