Eelco Dolstra 5c97b5a398 InstallableFlake::toDerivedPaths(): Support paths and store paths 
This makes 'nix build' work on paths (which will be copied to the
store) and store paths (returned as is). E.g. the following flake
output attributes can be built using 'nix build .#foo':

  foo = ./src;
  foo = self.outPath;
  foo = builtins.fetchTarball { ... };
  foo = (builtins.fetchTree { .. }).outPath;
  foo = builtins.fetchTree { .. } + "/README.md";
  foo = builtins.storePath /nix/store/...;

Note that this is potentially risky, e.g.

  foo = /.;

will cause Nix to try to copy the entire file system to the store.

What doesn't work yet:

  foo = self;
  foo = builtins.fetchTree { .. };

because we don't handle attrsets with an outPath attribute in it yet,
and

  foo = builtins.storePath /nix/store/.../README.md;

since result symlinks have to point to a store path currently (rather
than a file inside a store path).

Fixes #7417.

Nix

Open Collective supporters Test

Nix is a powerful package manager for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible. Please refer to the Nix manual for more details.

Installation

On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Nix is to run the following shell command (as a user other than root):

$ curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Information on additional installation methods is available on the Nix download page.

Building And Developing

See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to build nix from source with nix-build or how to get a development environment.
