{ dhallPackages, dhallPackageToNix }:
# `dhallDirectoryToNix is a utility function to take a directory of Dhall files
# and read them in as a Nix expression.
#
# This function is similar to `dhallToNix`, but takes a Nixpkgs Dhall package
# as input instead of raw Dhall code.
#
# Note that this uses "import from derivation" (IFD), meaning that Nix will
# perform a build during the evaluation phase if you use this
# `dhallDirectoryToNix` utility. It is not possible to use
# `dhallDirectoryToNix` in Nixpkgs, since the Nixpkgs Hydra doesn't allow IFD.
