Change the `nix-build` logic for linking/printing the output paths to allow for
some outputs to be missing. This might happen when the toplevel
derivation didn't have to be built, either because all the required
outputs were already there, or because they have all been substituted.
http://nixos.org redirects to https://nixos.org and apparently the HTTP library doesn't follow the redirect, so the output is empty.
When defining https in the request it crashes because the library doesn't seem to support https.
So this switches the example to a different http library.
The configuration was taken from nixpkgs repository and adjusted to
`NixOS/nix`.
A `stale` label was added to the labels (with gray color).
Issues and PRs with `critical` label are excluded from interacting with the
stale bot.
We upgrade to lowdown 0.8.0 [1] which contains a fix/improvement to a
behavior mentioned in this issue thread [2] where a big part of
lowdown's API would just call exit(1) on allocation errors since that
is a satisfying behavior for the lowdown binary.
Now lowdown_term_rndr returns 0 if an allocation error occurred which we
check for in libcmd/markdown.cc.
Also the extern "C" { } wrapper around lowdown.h has been removed as it
is not necessary.

In addition to being some ugly template trickery, it was also totally
useless as it was used in only one place where I could replace it by
just a few extra characters
This makes nix search always go through the first level of an
attribute set, even if it's not a top level attribute. For instance,
you can now list all GHC compilers with:
$ nix search nixpkgs#haskell.compiler
...
This is similar to how nix-env works when you pass in -A.
This fixes an issue where derivations with a primary output that is
not "out" would fail with:
$ nix profile install nixpkgs#sqlite
error: opening directory '/nix/store/2a2ydlgyydly5czcc8lg12n6qqkfz863-sqlite-3.34.1-bin': No such file or directory
This happens because while derivations produce every output when
built, you might not have them if you didn't build the derivation
yourself (for instance, the store path was fetch from a binary cache).
This uses outputName provided from DerivationInfo which appears to
match the first output of the derivation.
Where a `RealisedPath` is a store path with its history, meaning either
an opaque path for stuff that has been directly added to the store, or a
`Realisation` for stuff that has been built by a derivation
This is a low-level refactoring that doesn't bring anything by itself
(except a few dozen extra lines of code :/ ), but raising the
abstraction level a bit is important on a number of levels:
- Commands like `nix build` have to query for the realisations after the
build is finished which is fragile (see
27905f12e4a7207450abe37c9ed78e31603b67e1 for example). Having them
oprate directly at the realisation level would avoid that
- Others like `nix copy` currently operate directly on (built) store
paths, but need a bit more information as they will need to register
the realisations on the remote side
Example:
error: builder for '/nix/store/9ysqfidhipyzfiy54mh77iqn29j6cpsb-failing.drv' failed with exit code 1;
last 1 log lines:
