Previously, errors while printing values in `nix repl` would be printed
in `«error: ...»` brackets rather than displayed normally:
```
nix-repl> legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.pythonPackages.APScheduler
«error: Package ‘python-2.7.18.7’ in /nix/store/6s0m1qc31zw3l3kq0q4wd5cp3lqpkq0q-source/pkgs/development/interpreters/python/cpython/2.7/default.nix:335 is marked as insecure, refusing to evaluate.»
```
Now, errors will be displayed normally if they're emitted at the
top-level of an expression:
```
nix-repl> legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.pythonPackages.APScheduler
error:
… in the condition of the assert statement
at /nix/store/6s0m1qc31zw3l3kq0q4wd5cp3lqpkq0q-source/lib/customisation.nix:268:17:
267| in commonAttrs // {
268| drvPath = assert condition; drv.drvPath;
| ^
269| outPath = assert condition; drv.outPath;

28| lib.extendDerivation (valid value || throw "${name} should use `buildPythonPackage` or `toPythonModule` if it is to be part of the Python packages set.") {} value
| ^
29| else
(stack trace truncated; use '--show-trace' to show the full trace)
error: Package ‘python-2.7.18.7’ in /nix/store/6s0m1qc31zw3l3kq0q4wd5cp3lqpkq0q-source/pkgs/development/interpreters/python/cpython/2.7/default.nix:335 is marked as insecure, refusing to evaluate.
```
Errors emitted in nested structures (like e.g. when printing `nixpkgs`)
will still be printed in brackets.

Errors at the top of an expression are printed normally:
|
|
|
|
nix-repl> builtins.throw "Evil puppy detected!!!"
|
|
error:
|
|
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
|
|
at «string»:1:1:
|
|
1| builtins.throw "Evil puppy detected!!!"
|
|
| ^
|
|
|
|
error: Evil puppy detected!!!
|
|
|
|
Errors in attribute values are printed inline, to make it easier to explore
|
|
values like nixpkgs where some parts of the value fail to evaluate:
|
|
|
|
nix-repl> { puppy = builtins.throw "This puppy is EVIL!!!"; puppy2 = "This puppy is GOOD :)"; }
|
|
{
|
|
puppy = «error: This puppy is EVIL!!!»;
|
|
puppy2 = "This puppy is GOOD :)";
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Same for list values:
|
|
|
|
nix-repl> [ (builtins.throw "This puppy is EVIL!!!") ("This puppy is GOOD :)") ]
|
|
[
|
|
«error: This puppy is EVIL!!!»
|
|
"This puppy is GOOD :)"
|
|
]
