I think that this is more straightforward and common.

@GaetanLepage it does not seems to run the pytest suite on my side while building:

nix-build -A python3Packages.nanobind.passthru.tests.pytest

Thanks a lot for your contribution @Sigmanificient and for your review @GaetanLepage. I have to admit that I still have to learn about the "passthru" functionality. Just to be clear how to run the tests in the future (when I upgrade the version): do I have to run nix-build -A python3Packages.nanobind.passthru.tests.pytest or can I run nix-build -A python3Packages.nanobind as before or something else?

[Sigmanificient]

@phiadaarr Yes, you will have to run nix-build -A python3Packages.nanobind.passthru.tests.pytest to enable the check phase.

This pr is meant to reduce the dependencies for packages that use nanobind as a build system. It will avoid, for instance, to build tensorflow which is part of nanobind nativeCheckInputs.

Small precision: You can omit the passthru and build all the test (which amounts to be the same here) in your command: nix-build -A python3Packages.nanobind.tests
