;;; Code:

(require 'js)
(require 'nix)

;;;###autoload

  "Pretty print Nix’s .drv files."
  (let ((inhibit-read-only t))
    (erase-buffer)
    (insert (shell-command-to-string
             (format "%s show-derivation \"%s\""
		     nix-executable
		     (buffer-file-name))))
    (set-buffer-modified-p nil)
    (read-only-mode 1))

  (add-hook 'change-major-mode-hook #'nix-drv-mode-dejsonify-buffer nil t))

(defun nix-drv-mode-dejsonify-buffer ()
  "Restore nix-drv-mode when switching to another mode."

  (remove-hook 'change-major-mode-hook #'nix-drv-mode-dejsonify-buffer t)

  (let ((inhibit-read-only t))
    (erase-buffer)
