oxalica 2941a599fa Catch eval errors in hasContent
`legacyPackages` of nixpkgs trigger eval errors in `hasContent`, causing
the whole `legacyPackages` being skipped. We should treat it as
has-content in that case.

John Ericson 256f3e3063 Stratify ExtraPathInfo along Installable hierarchy
Instead of having a bunch of optional fields, have a few subclasses
which can have mandatory fields.

Additionally, the new `getExtraPathInfo`, and `nixpkgsFlakeRef`, are
moved to `InstallableValue`.

I did these things because https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/134 ; with
these things moved to `InstallableValue`, the base `Installable` no
longer depends on libexpr! This is a major step towards that.

Also, add a bunch of doc comments for sake of the internal API docs.

Otherwise, a trace consisting of

... would reach the non-frame and print the suggestion, even though
it would have ignored the non-frame anyway.

This resulted in a peculariar situation where --show-trace would have
no apparent effect, as the trace was actually already complete.

Eelco Dolstra 16db8dc96f Open slave pseudoterminal before CLONE_NEWUSER
Otherwise, when running as root and user namespaces are enabled,
opening the slave fails with EPERM.

Fixes "opening pseudoterminal slave: Permission denied" followed by a
hang (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/213104244), and "error: getting
sandbox mount namespace: No such file or directory" (#8072), which
happens when the child fails very quickly and consequently reading
/proc/<child>/ns fails.

John Ericson 4607ac7aed Fix handling of experimental features mid-parse
If we conditionally "declare" the argument, as we did before, based upon
weather the feature is enabled, commands like

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

won't work, because the experimental feature isn't enabled until *after*
we start parsing.

Instead, allow arguments to also be associated with experimental
features (just as we did for builtins and settings), and then the
command line parser will filter out the experimental ones.

Since the effects of arguments (handler functions) are performed right
away, we get the required behavior: earlier arguments can enable later
arguments enabled!

There is just one catch: we want to keep non-positional
flags...non-positional. So if

    nix --experimental-features=foo ... --thing-gated-on-foo

works, then

    nix --thing-gated-on-foo --experimental-features=foo ...

should also work.

This is not my favorite long-term solution, but for now this is
implemented by delaying the requirement of needed experimental features
until *after* all the arguments have been parsed.

John Ericson aa663b7e89 Mark experimental features on settings
We hide them in various ways if the experimental feature isn't enabled.

To do this, we had to move the experimental features list out of
libnixstore, because the setting machinary itself depends on it. To do
that, we made a new `ExperimentalFeatureSettings`.

Eelco Dolstra e53e5c38d4 Add a setting for configuring the SSL certificates file
This provides a platform-independent way to configure the SSL
certificates file in the Nix daemon. Previously we provided
instructions for overriding the environment variable in launchd, but
that obviously doesn't work with systemd. Now we can just tell users
to add

  ssl-cert-file = /etc/ssl/my-certificate-bundle.crt

to their nix.conf.

John Ericson c998e0172f Move value-only methods to InstallableValue
These methods would previously fail on the other `Installable`s, so
moving them to this class is more correct as to where they actually
work.

Additionally, a `InstallableValueCommand` is created to make it easier
(or rather no worse than before) to write commands that just work on
`InstallableValue`s.

Besides being a cleanup to avoid failing default methods, this gets us
closer to https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/134.

Merge pull request #7750 from obsidiansystems/no-args-prepare
Make command infra less stateful and more regular
2023-03-15 17:23:40 -04:00
John Ericson bc23a44c54 Make command infra less stateful and more regular
Already, we had classes like `BuiltPathsCommand` and `StorePathsCommand`
which provided alternative `run` virtual functions providing the
implementation with more arguments. This was a very nice and easy way to
make writing command; just fill in the virtual functions and it is
fairly clear what to do.

However, exception to this pattern were `Installable{,s}Command`. These
two classes instead just had a field where the installables would be
stored, and various side-effecting `prepare` and `load` machinery too
fill them in. Command would wish out those fields.

This isn't so clear to use.

What this commit does is make those command classes like the others,
with richer `run` functions.

Not only does this restore the pattern making commands easier to write,
it has a number of other benefits:

- `prepare` and `load` are gone entirely! One command just hands just
  hands off to the next.

- `useDefaultInstallables` because `defaultInstallables`. This takes
  over `prepare` for the one case that needs it, and provides enough
  flexiblity to handle `nix repl`'s idiosyncratic migration.

- We can use `ref` instead of `std::shared_ptr`. The former must be
  initialized (so it is like Rust's `Box` rather than `Option<Box>`,
  This expresses the invariant that the installable are in fact
  initialized much better.

  This is possible because since we just have local variables not
  fields, we can stop worrying about the not-yet-initialized case.

- Fewer lines of code! (Finally I have a large refactor that makes the
  number go down not up...)

- `nix repl` is now implemented in a clearer way.

The last item deserves further mention. `nix repl` is not like the other
installable commands because instead working from once-loaded
installables, it needs to be able to load them again and again.

To properly support this, we make a new superclass
`RawInstallablesCommand`. This class has the argument parsing and
completion logic, but does *not* hand off parsed installables but
instead just the raw string arguments.

This is exactly what `nix repl` needs, and allows us to instead of
having the logic awkwardly split between `prepare`,
`useDefaultInstallables,` and `load`, have everything right next to each
other. I think this will enable future simplifications of that argument
defaulting logic, but I am saving those for a future PR --- best to keep
code motion and more complicated boolean expression rewriting separate
steps.

The "diagnostic ignored `-Woverloaded-virtual`" pragma helps because C++
doesn't like our many `run` methods. In our case, we don't mind the
shadowing it all --- it is *intentional* that the derived class only
provides a `run` method, and doesn't call any of the overridden `run`
methods.

Helps with https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/134
