Eelco Dolstra ef902274fd Remove unnecessary "system" argument 2012-04-14 18:48:11 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra dadbb51d96 * Use Nix::Config. 2012-01-03 00:47:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 48cea0d01e * Refactoring: Get rid of a few subdirectories in corepkgs/, and some
other simplifications.
* Use <nix/...> to locate the corepkgs.  This allows them to be
  overriden through $NIX_PATH.
* Use bash's pipefail option in the NAR builder so that we don't need
  to create a temporary file.
2012-01-03 00:16:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 216440b3ff * For consistency with "nix-store -q --hash", produce hashes in
base-32.  (This affects Hydra manifests.)
2011-11-29 12:32:55 +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 3cbf680f5d * configure: detect whether DBD::SQLite is present. If necessary the
location to DBI and DBD::SQLite can be passed with --with-dbi and
  --with-dbd-sqlite.
2011-04-11 10:13:53 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 83252b4ca9 * Subtle bug: if you import File::stat in one module, it affects other
modules as well.  So use symbolic field names everywhere (which is
  nicer anyway).
2011-04-11 08:21:30 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 802c2651c8 2011-02-17 15:08:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e945b52a31 * nix-push: handle the case where the hash is not set in the DB. 2011-02-17 13:26:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 365f3028dd * Use CamelCase for the Perl modules. 2010-12-05 17:50:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 06699d4219 * Store the NAR size in the manifest. 2010-11-17 12:57:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5693b8a7e2 * nix-push: no need to compute the NAR hash, since the Nix database
already has it (`nix-store -q --hash').
2010-11-17 12:51:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2897286487 * Unify exportReferencesGraph and exportBuildReferencesGraph, and make
sure that it works as expected when you pass it a derivation.  That
  is, we have to make sure that all build-time dependencies are built,
  and that they are all in the input closure (otherwise remote builds
  might fail, for example).  This is ensured at instantiation time by
  adding all derivations and their sources to inputDrvs and inputSrcs.
2009-03-18 17:36:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f8713e1287 * Dirty hack to make nix-push work properly on derivations: the
derivation should be a source rather than a derivation dependency of
  the call to the NAR derivation.  Otherwise the derivation (and all
  its dependencies) will be built as a side-effect, which may not even
  succeed.
2008-12-04 10:40:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4213b8d8ec * Urgh. 2008-11-20 15:44:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra aab530e971 * Primop builtins.storePath for declaring a store path as a
dependency.  `storePath /nix/store/bla' gives exactly the same
  result as `toPath /nix/store/bla', except that the former includes
  /nix/store/bla in the dependency context of the string.

  Useful in some generated Nix expressions like nix-push, which now
  finally does the right thing wrt distributed builds.  (Previously
  the path to be packed wasn't an explicit dependency, so it wouldn't
  be copied to the remote machine.)
2008-11-19 23:26:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f106868110 * Cleanup. 2008-03-20 10:16:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra de012e76e2 * Don't use "store expression", it's obsolete. 2007-12-30 23:35:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c370755583 * Flag `--no-build-hook' to disable distributed builds.
* queryDeriver in daemon mode: don't barf if the other side returns an
  empty string (which means there is no deriver).
2007-11-16 16:15:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9441550acb * nix-push / generate-patches: bzip the manifest. 2007-09-04 15:38:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dbc0170ed9 * Show errors in nix-prefetch-url. 2007-08-15 09:24:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d98f750fd8 * tmpnam() -> File::Temp::tempdir(). 2006-10-04 18:58:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 68ae953d8a * Clean up calls to system(). 2006-09-25 10:44:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 76c9710091 * Use builtins.toPath. 2006-09-25 10:29:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a060adf165 * Use paths, not strings, when calling the function that generates
NARs.  Fixes the impurity of nix-push (NIX-21).
* Better help.
2006-09-20 15:04:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3e239a37ff * file:/ -> file:// 2006-08-09 19:37:23 +00:00
Armijn Hemel c0bfcbdd45 rework the --target flag. If this flag is used, a URI should be given. Default
values are not changed.
2006-08-08 15:42:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5a6b45e252 * In nar.nix, path -> storePath, otherwise we get a collision between
environment variable names on Cygwin (where they are case
  insensitive).
2006-08-07 18:22:57 +00:00
Armijn Hemel fcb784051f urgh...for some weird reason this one-liner was not in svn. PEBKAC! 2006-08-03 11:48:09 +00:00
Armijn Hemel 4fde308ec0 add a flag --target, so we can override the URL in the MANIFEST file. This
is only for local copies (so file:///)
2006-08-01 13:15:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dc528128cc * FreeBSD compatibility fix. 2005-11-17 13:58:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 221c79013f * Turn off build hooks in nix-push because of an impurity (NIX-21). 2005-10-29 18:17:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 607a2f01e6 * Remove other uses of IPC::Open2. 2005-09-21 17:14:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e52ae1c0ff * Use SHA-256 for nix-push. 2005-03-15 11:12:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8eff18cd43 * Set NAR name to content hash; previous nix-push names were not
unique.
* Drop `hashAlgo' attribute in manifests; prefix hashes with the hash
  algorithm instead.
2005-03-14 15:09:53 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 95e870a113 * (Unnecessary) refactoring. 2005-02-24 14:06:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fb5dae8694 * Fix nix-channel.
* Add `--help' flag; fixes NIX-5.
* Add `--remove' flag; fixes NIX-6.
* Add `--list' flag.
2005-02-17 10:06:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 98df735b51 * Propagate the deriver of a path through the substitute mechanism.
* Removed some dead code (successor stuff) from nix-push.
* Updated terminology in the tests (store expr -> drv path).
* Check that the deriver is set properly in the tests.
2005-02-09 12:57:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 066da4ab85 * Really fix the substitute mechanism, i.e., ensure the closure
invariant by registering references through the manifest.
* Added a test for nix-pull.
2005-01-25 17:08:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6ff48e77f6 * Set the Perl search path properly (reported by Roy van den Broek). 2005-01-19 21:55:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4bf58d5379 * Added a function to write manifests. 2004-12-28 21:11:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e3b051aeeb * Include the size of the bzipped archive (necessary for computing the
cheapest download path), as well as the hash of the contents of the
  path (necessary for checking patch applicability).
2004-12-13 16:56:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2d35116c13 * Setuid support for sharing a Nix installation between multiple
users.

  If the configure flag `--enable-setuid' is used, the Nix programs
  nix-env, nix-store, etc. are installed with the setuid bit turned on
  so that they are executed as the user and group specified by
  `--with-nix-user=USER' and `--with-nix-group=GROUP', respectively
  (with defaults `nix' and `nix').

  The setuid programs drop all special privileges if they are executed
  by a user who is not a member of the Nix group.

  The setuid feature is a quick hack to enable sharing of a Nix
  installation between users who trust each other.  It is not
  generally secure, since any user in the Nix group can modify (by
  building an appropriate derivation) any object in the store, and for
  instance inject trojans into binaries used by other users.

  The setuid programs are owned by root, not the Nix user.  This is
  because on Unix normal users cannot change the real uid, only the
  effective uid.  Many programs don't work properly when the real uid
  differs from the effective uid.  For instance, Perl will turn on
  taint mode.  However, the setuid programs drop all root privileges
  immediately, changing all uids and gids to the Nix user and group.

Eelco Dolstra 21655a70f5 * Channels. These allow you to stay current with an evolving set of
Nix expressions.

  To subscribe to a channel (needs to be done only once):

    nix-channel --add \
      http://catamaran.labs.cs.uu.nl/dist/nix/channels/nixpkgs-unstable

  This just adds the given URL to ~/.nix-channels (which can also be
  edited manually).

  To update from all channels:

    nix-channel --update

  This fetches the latest expressions and pulls cache manifests.  The
  default Nix expression (~/.nix-defexpr) is made to point to the
  conjunction of the expressions downloaded from all channels.

  So to update all installed derivations in the current user
  environment:

    nix-channel --update
    nix-env --upgrade '*'

  If you are really courageous, you can put this in a cronjob or
  something.

  You can subscribe to multiple channels.  It is not entirely clear
  what happens when there are name clashes between derivations from
  different channels.  From nix-env/main.cc it appears that the one
  with the lowest (highest?) hash will be used, which is pretty
  meaningless.

Eelco Dolstra 7cce0c34e1 * Allow extra parameters to be passed to Curl through the `CURL_FLAGS'
environment variable.  This is useful for passing authentication
  information (it won't show up in `ps').  Hacky - nix-push should
  abstract over the use of Curl.
2004-04-15 15:14:16 +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 1ad9d11247 * Only include predecessors that are themselves being pushed.
Otherwise the substitute mechanism can break in subtle ways.
2004-02-13 10:43:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 92e832348d * Lots of manual stuff. Reference pages for most Nix commands.
* nix-pull now requires the full url to the manifest, i.e.,
  `/MANIFEST/' is no longer automatically appended.
* nix-prefetch-url works again.
