Passing cabal flags

[cocreature]

I am trying to pass an argument, so I put

flags: { demos: true }

in my stack.yaml.
However when I try to run stack build this results in the error

AesonException "failed to parse field flags: when expecting a HashMap Text a, encountered Boolean instead"

I tried figuring out what the correct syntax should be, but I couldn't. It would be great if you could add the documentation for that.

There's an open issue for documenting stack.yaml correctly. In the meanwhile: you need to set it up by package name, e.g.:

flags:
  package-name:
    flag-name: true

Thanks, added the example to the wiki.

Thank you!
