# Tx elm

## Setup

This repo is using nix flakes.

The "right" way to package elm with nix is not known to the author.

- Maybe [elm2nix](https://github.com/cachix/elm2nix)

## CLi

The way elm works seems to be rather sneaky. It adds `Elm` to the global js
scope. In typical use this is then picked up by some script embedded in the page
:

```js
  var app = Elm.Main.init({ node: document.getElementById("elm"), flags : ... });
```

Instead we want to call it with node. Appending the output file with

```js
this.Elm.Cli.init({ flags: process.argv });
```

Does the job. But there must be a better way ...
