# Local hoogle

You can also use this expression to configure a local hoogle service with
additional development tools by using the following `shell.nix` file:

```nix
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> { } }:
pkgs.haskellPackages.shellFor {
withHoogle = true;
packages = p: [ (import ./release2.nix).project0 ];
buildInputs = [ pkgs.haskellPackages.hlint ];
}
```


... replacing `release2.nix` with the name of your project's derivation file.
Then you can just type:

```bash
$ nix-shell --command "hoogle server -p 8080 --local --haskell"
```

... and that will automatically serve a local hoogle with the documentation
of your project's dependencies.
