Right now when building a derivation remotely via
$ nix build -j0 -f . hello -L --builders 'ssh://builder'
it's possible later to read through the entire build-log by running
`nix log -f . hello`. This isn't possible however when using `ssh-ng`
rather than `ssh`.
The reason for that is that there are two different ways to transfer
logs in Nix through e.g. an SSH tunnel (that are used by `ssh`/`ssh-ng`
respectively):
* `ssh://` receives its logs from the fd pointing to `builderOut`. This
is directly passed to the "log-sink" (and to the logger on each `\n`),
hence `nix log` works here.
* `ssh-ng://` however expects JSON-like messages (i.e. `@nix {log data
in here}`) and passes it directly to the logger without doing anything
with the `logSink`. However it's certainly possible to extract
log-lines from this format as these have their own message-type in the
JSON payload (i.e. `resBuildLogLine`).
This is basically what I changed in this patch: if the code-path for
`builderOut` is not reached and a `logSink` is initialized, the
message was successfully processed by the JSON logger (i.e. it's in
the expected format) and the line is of the expected type (i.e.
`resBuildLogLine`), the line will be written to the log-sink as well.
Closes #5079

Nix
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.
