Eelco Dolstra a562d544d8 When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual page 
I.e. do what git does.  I'm too lazy to keep the builtin help text up
to date :-)

Also add ‘--help’ to various commands that lacked it
(e.g. nix-collect-garbage).

Eelco Dolstra ab42bf1dab nix-install-package: Support binary caches 
The .nixpkg file format is extended to optionally include the URL of a
binary cache, which will be used in preference to the manifest URL
(which can be set to a non-existent value).

Eelco Dolstra a7366a764a * Add a -I flag to the Perl bindings to nix-build and some other 
scripts.
* Include the version and architecture in the -I flag so that there is
  at least a chance that a Nix binary built for one Perl version will
  run on another version.
 2012-01-05 20:33:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5090c34ee1 * Set the executable bit on scripts. 2011-10-10 22:40:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6fcdbcac20 * Install NixManifest.pm, NixConfig.pm and GeneratePatches.pm under 
the Nix:: namespace.
 2011-10-10 21:11:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d94cb02bfe * nix-install-package: unset NIX_REMOTE because $NIX_MANIFESTS_DIR 
doesn't work when building through the Nix daemon.  This also
  ensures an error message when the user doesn't have sufficient
  privileges to do nix-pull.
 2011-04-19 10:52:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1273d355ac * nix-install-package: don't pollute /nix/var/nix/manifests. 2009-02-27 14:06:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4213b8d8ec * Urgh. 2008-11-20 15:44:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 26f981c2e5 * Remove garbage. 2007-09-18 08:26:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d98f750fd8 * tmpnam() -> File::Temp::tempdir(). 2006-10-04 18:58:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3632019b73 * Quick hack to let nix-install-package set the package name properly 
(e.g., "java-front-0.9pre15899" instead of "java-front";
  particularly important when doing upgrades later on).
 2006-09-25 14:00:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 68ae953d8a * Clean up calls to system(). 2006-09-25 10:44:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0bd5eb71a0 * `nix-install-package --url': install from a URL (NIX-12). 
* `nix-install-package --help' (NIX-9).
* `nix-install-package --non-interactive': don't prompt or pause.
* Tests for nix-install-package.
* Security fixes: filter the values obtained from the nixpkg.
 2006-09-21 18:54:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ee5040421f * Try konsole and gnome-terminal in addition to xterm. 2006-09-21 11:29:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 536f324177 * nix-install-package: install outPath, not drvPath, for now. 
* nix-prefecth-url: print out in base-16.
 2005-03-11 15:27:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8d3c346559 * Pause if errors occur. 2005-02-25 15:58:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6bafeafb88 * nix-install-package: Use the new (trivial) package format generated 
by the build farm.  See e.g.,
  http://catamaran.labs.cs.uu.nl/dist/nixpkgs-0.8/nixpkgs-0.7pre2302/;
  the user can click on packages, and they will be installed (assuming
  the `application/nix-package' MIME type has been associated with
  `nix-install-package').

  Nix expressions are no longer involved: a "package" is just a
  pointer to a manifest, and the top-level store derivation to be
  added to the user environment.  This makes these packages
  independent from Nix expression evolution.

  Note that we install the store derivation ($drvPath), not the
  resulting output path ($outPath).  This is equivalent, except that
  installing the derivation maintains the back-link from the output
  path to the derivation that built it.  This is useful for
  maintenance.

* Automatically re-exec in an xterm so that the user sees something
  when `nix-install-package' is run from a browser.
 2005-02-25 15:42:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 03f1d1ecb5 * Switched from wget to curl. 
* Made the dependencies on bzip2 and the shell explicit.
 2004-04-06 08:18:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra beda10f5a2 * Make perl a dependency of Nix. 2004-03-15 15:23:53 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 16f9b133ec * Improved `nix-push': it now uses HTTP PUT (instead of rsync) to copy 
files.  Target location is no longer hard-coded; it accepts a number
  of URLs on the command line.

* `nix-install-package': compatibility fixes.
 2004-01-14 11:13:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e7ea52d3b3 * One-click installation :-) 
The script nix-install-package takes a `Nix package file' (which
  contains one or more derivations, along with URLs of Nix caches),
  unpacks it, pulls the caches, and installs the derivations in the
  user's environment.

  For best results, associate the command `xterm -e
  /nix/bin/nix-install-package' with the MIME type
  `application/x-nix-package' and visit
  http://losser.st-lab.cs.uu.nl/~eelco/test/.
