As someone who usually works on individual scraps of Haskell (not projects), I frequently wish to do the same and have struggled with both cabal and stack in getting what I want.
Happily, there is a nicely working alternative to both: cabal-env from https://github.com/phadej/cabal-extras works great. I use it regularly. It does what you want.
I couldn't find a README, hard to see what it does exactly. Is it just more convenience around the idiom of using cabal install --env . --lib ghc-heap-view to get a .ghc.environment file in the local directory (which is, as long as you use ghc or ghci in that directory, as good as the good old cabal v1-install, it seems)?
