Starting with 1.0.0 (which is not released at the time of this commit
but will be before it is pushed), npm2nix takes a JSON file with a list
of names (and optionally version ranges) and generates a data-only (no
functions, no rec, no let, etc.) nix expression representing the
packages with those names and their dependencies.
node-packages.nix now builds its package list from that generated
expression. If a package needs native dependencies as build inputs, they
can be added to the nativeDeps attribute set. If a package cannot be
generated by npm2nix for some reason, it can be added manually to the
set.
I tried to capture the packages represented by the previous
node-packages.nix in the new node-packages.json, but I almost certainly
missed some that will have to be added manually.
