Eelco Dolstra fe15f991e3 * Troubleshooting information on fixing a b0rked Berkeley DB database. 2006-11-30 11:24:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 745e354b19 * Push. 2006-11-14 10:23:21 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e2a70b7ec0 * Magic attribute `exportReferencesGraph' that allows the references
graph to be passed to a builder.  This attribute should be a list of
  pairs [name1 path1 name2 path2 ...].  The references graph of each
  `pathN' will be stored in a text file `nameN' in the temporary build
  directory.  The text files have the format used by `nix-store
  --register-validity'.  However, the deriver fields are left empty.

  `exportReferencesGraph' is useful for builders that want to do
  something with the closure of a store path.  Examples: the builders
  that make initrds and ISO images for NixOS.

  `exportReferencesGraph' is entirely pure.  It's necessary because
  otherwise the only way for a builder to get this information would
  be to call `nix-store' directly, which is not allowed (though
  unfortunately possible).
2006-11-13 18:18:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e40d4a5604 * Option --reregister' in nix-store --register-validity'. We need
this in the NixOS installer (or in the buildfarm) to ensure that the
  cryptographic hash of the path contents still matches the actual
  contents.

Eelco Dolstra 005eecfc4d * Release notes. 2006-10-30 16:29:05 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ae6fb27f18 * `nix-store --read-log / -l PATH' shows the build log of PATH, if
available.  For instance,

    $ nix-store -l $(which svn) | less

  lets you read the build log of the Subversion instance in your
  profile.

* `nix-store -qb': if applied to a non-derivation, take the deriver.
2006-10-28 16:33:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 99b0ea7c67 * Typo reported by Arie Middelkoop.

2006-10-26 23:06:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7d4567f2cc * Removed URIs from the evaluator (NIX-66). They are now just another
kind of notation for strings.

Eelco Dolstra f316b6c1a9 * Manual updates (especially how nix-build makes testing packages much
easier; no longer need a helper expression).

Eelco Dolstra a04a65d7a5 * Release notes. 2006-09-06 14:29:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f41297fdce * Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:
$ nix-env -qa --system-filter \* --arg system '"powerpc-darwin"'

  to override the system from the default value (__currentSystem in
  all-packages.nix).
2006-08-23 16:33:21 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 68515b5a96 * Release notes. 2006-08-22 13:19:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1a9a1f2768 * Convert to DocBook 5.
* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy.
2006-08-21 16:05:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 601a8eab79 * Ugh. Darwin's chmod insists that flags come before the mode
specification.
2006-08-01 12:00:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b11aeb2c4b * Doh. 2006-07-25 13:15:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5744dd5480 * Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do,
e.g.,

  $ nix-env -i -A subversion xorg.xorgserver

  The main advantage over using symbolic names is that using attribute
  names is unambiguous and much, much faster.
2006-07-25 11:53:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c15f544356 * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to prevent
running applications etc. from being garbage collected.

Eelco Dolstra 48e4a3231b 2006-06-14 13:31:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 50fe85f016 * For fixed-output derivations, pass the environment variables listed
in the attribute variable `impureEnvVars' from the caller to the
  builder.

Eelco Dolstra 345a95afe9 * Allow the size of the GC reserved file to be specified in nix.conf
through the new `gc-reserved-space' option.
2006-02-16 13:58:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b505f9eaf5 * Document that nix-instantiate can read from stdin. 2006-02-10 15:29:17 +00:00

Eelco Dolstra 3c5619c7e4 * Begin release notes. 2005-12-15 21:11:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ab5c6bb3a3 * Change referer' to referrer' throughout. In particular, the
nix-store query options `--referer' and `--referer-closure' have
  been changed to `--referrer' and `--referrer-closure' (but the old
  ones are still accepted for compatibility).
2005-12-13 21:04:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1b43fbd8e4 * Oops, that should be Berkeley DB 4.3. Reported by Gerco Ballintijn. 2005-10-18 14:09:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 62412c5874 * Document `nix-env --compare-versions'. 2005-10-06 15:51:43 +00:00

Eelco Dolstra 5818e8eeaf * Remove dead code. 2005-09-14 18:51:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 025086edea * Release notes in Docbook; ASCII release notes (i.e., the `NEWS'
file) is now generated from that using `w3m' and some XSL hackery.
2005-09-14 18:50:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 78c72bf10e * channels -> channels-v3, catamaran -> nix.cs.uu.nl. 2005-08-01 07:30:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a5ceb5bc0b * nix-build: default to `./default.nix' if no paths are specified.
So when using Nix as a build tool, you can just say `nix-build' and
  it will build the top-level derivation defined in `default.nix'.
2005-07-13 17:39:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 88dea78cdf * Crazy: don't use real hashes of real components in examples, since
they cause Nix builds to have unnecessary retained dependences
  (e.g., on Subversion).
2005-05-09 09:58:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 82d771f6e6 * Manual updates. 2005-04-10 20:54:21 +00:00

but were afraid to ask.
2004-11-07 20:36:45 +00:00

Eelco Dolstra b05a596d61 * Document setuid Nix installs. 2004-10-31 17:08:48 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0d80d237c5 * Add figures to make install' / make dist'. 2004-10-31 16:13:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f8ac8d1ec8 * Began adding build farm docs. 2004-10-29 15:26:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 37d7abd694 * New language feature: with expressions.
The expression `with E1; E2' evaluates to E2 with all bindings in
  the attribute set E1 substituted.  E.g.,

    with {x = 123;}; x

  evaluates to 123.  That is, the attribute set E1 is in scope in E2.

  This is particularly useful when importing files containing lots
  definitions.  E.g., instead of

    let {
      inherit (import ./foo.nix) a b c d e f;

      body = ... a ... f ...;
    }

  we can now say

    with import ./foo.nix;

    ... a ... f ...

  I.e., we don't have to say what variables should be brought into scope.
2004-10-25 16:54:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2cd590d96c * Instead of — use the actual Unicode character. By the way, to
edit the manual, you should have something like

    (modify-coding-system-alist 'file "\\.xml\\>" 'utf-8)

  in your ~/.emacs.
2004-10-18 12:22:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 692204e0c5 * Rewrite of package management stuff. 2004-10-14 16:43:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra febd8bed1b * Split overview chapter into a chapter on package management and a
chapter on writing Nix expressions.
2004-10-14 11:55:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 98c69e5172 * Unindent. 2004-10-14 11:54:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 371c57d8a7 * Updated the quick start section. Use channels instead of
downloading Nix expressions and calling nix-pull.  This is so
  user-friendly that even a Mac user can do it! :-)
2004-10-13 15:35:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2b20701f78 * Better introduction.
* Set notes in a different color than warnings.
2004-10-13 15:08:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5396304c73 * Use setre[ug]id() instead of setres[ug]id(), since the former is
more common than the latter (which exists only on Linux and
  FreeBSD).  We don't really care about dropping the saved IDs since
  there apparently is no way to quiry them in any case, so it can't
  influence the build (unlike the effective IDs which are checked by
  Perl for instance).
2004-09-09 15:55:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra eb233e728f * `--min-age' flag in nix-store and nix-collect-garbage to only delete
unreachable paths that haven't been used for N hours.  For instance,
  `nix-collect-garbage --min-age 168' only deletes paths that haven't
  been accessed in the last week.

  This is useful for instance in the build farm where many derivations
  can be shared between consecutive builds, and we wouldn't want a
  garbage collect to throw them all away.  We could of course register
  them as roots, but then we'd to unregister them at some point, which
  would be a pain to manage.  The `--min-age' flag gives us a sort of
  MRU caching scheme.

  BUG: this really shouldn't be in gc.cc since that violates
  mechanism/policy separation.
2004-08-25 16:54:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra fdec72c6cc * `nix-collect-garbage' now actually performs a garbage collection, it
doesn't just print the set of paths that should be deleted.  So
  there is no more need to pipe the result into `nix-store --delete'
  (which doesn't even exist anymore).
2004-08-25 15:39:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 1eddee59f2 * The default verbosity level of all Nix commands is now lvlInfo.
* Builder output is written to standard error by default.
  * The option `-B' is gone.
  * The option `-Q' suppresses builder output.

The result of this is that most Nix invocations shouldn't need any
flags w.r.t. logging.
2004-08-18 12:19:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 151e61fa5a * By default, `nix-env -i' now deletes previously installed
derivations with names matching the derivations being installed.
  The option `--preserve-installed / -P' overrides this behaviour.
2004-06-28 14:40:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 24286e15c9 * `nix-env -u' now allows a specific version to be specified when
upgrading.

  This fixes a bug reported by Martin:

    $ nix-env -i foo-1.0
    $ nix-env -u foo-1.0
    upgrading foo-1.0 to foo-1.1

Eelco Dolstra 91dc023665 * Added a switch `--fallback'. From the manual:
Whenever Nix attempts to realise a derivation for which a closure is
  already known, but this closure cannot be realised, fall back on
  normalising the derivation.

  The most common scenario in which this is useful is when we have
  registered substitutes in order to perform binary distribution from,
  say, a network repository.  If the repository is down, the
  realisation of the derivation will fail.  When this option is
  specified, Nix will build the derivation instead.  Thus, binary
  installation falls back on a source installation.  This option is
  not the default since it is generally not desirable for a transient
  failure in obtaining the substitutes to lead to a full build from
  source (with the related consumption of resources).

Eelco Dolstra b113edeab7 * A flag `--keep-going / -k' to keep building goals if one fails, as
much as possible.  (This is similar to GNU Make's `-k' flag.)

* Refactoring to implement this: previously we just bombed out when
  a build failed, but now we have to clean up.  In particular this
  means that goals must be freed quickly --- they shouldn't hang
  around until the worker exits.  So the worker now maintains weak
  pointers in order not to prevent garbage collection.

* Documented the `-k' and `-j' flags.

Eelco Dolstra 66e94d3275 * Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g.,
default -> default-94-link
  default-82-link -> /nix/store/cc4480...
  default-83-link -> /nix/store/caeec8...
  ...
  default-94-link -> /nix/store/2896ca...
  experimental -> experimental-2-link
  experimental-1-link -> /nix/store/cc4480...
  experimental-2-link -> /nix/store/a3148f...

* `--profile' / `-p' -> `--switch-profile' / `-S'
* `--link' / `-l' -> `--profile' / `-p'
* The default profile is stored in $prefix/var/nix/profiles.
  $prefix/var/nix/links is gone.  Profiles can be stored anywhere.
* The current profile is now referenced from ~/.nix-profile, not
  ~/.nix-userenv.
* The roots to the garbage collector now have extension `.gcroot', not
  `.id'.
