Hi Guix,
under “guix/scripts” there are a couple of tools that are really useful,
such as “guix challenge”. While they are great for the command line,
I’d really like to use them from within Guile.
Using “(guix-challenge)” directly is cumbersome, because I need to
provide an argument list “args”, which is then parsed internally.
Instead, I’d like to be able to say
(challenge #:urls (list "a" "b")
#:packages (list foo bar baz))
and have it produce some report values. Then “guix-challenge” could be
implemented in terms of “challenge”.
The same might be useful for “guix-build” or “guix-environment”.
What do you think?
