Eelco Dolstra ecb3a1afa2 Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into flakes 2019-12-11 14:53:30 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra bbe97dff8b Make the Store API more type-safe
Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which
is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures
that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like
<store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like
buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path
by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix.

Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves
some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a
helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop()
function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics:
after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function
on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original
value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the
value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types.

Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern
(e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).

Replace a few bool flags with enums

Eelco Dolstra d74236d1f2 nix build: Use Nix search path
That is, unless --file is specified, the Nix search path is
synthesized into an attribute set. Thus you can say

  $ nix build nixpkgs.hello

assuming $NIX_PATH contains an entry of the form "nixpkgs=...". This
is more verbose than

  $ nix build hello

but is less ambiguous.

This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't
useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the
"pretty" log type.

Eelco Dolstra c10c61449f Eliminate the "store" global variable
Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation.

Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a
wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never
null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a
"T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the
caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not
always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via
std::bind.)

Pascal Wittmann 4921223160 Print license information on '--xml --meta'
The nixpkgs manual prescribes the use of values from stdenv.lib.licenses
for the meta.license attribute. Those values are attribute sets and
currently skipped when running nix-env with '--xml --meta'. This has the
consequence that also nixpkgs-lint will report missing licenses.

With this commit nix-env with '--xml --meta' will print all attributes
of an attribute set that are of type tString. For example the output for
the package nixpkgs.hello is

    <meta name="license" type="strings">
      <string type="url" value="http://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-3.0+" />
      <string type="shortName" value="gpl3Plus" />
      <string type="fullName" value="GNU General Public License v3.0 or later" />
      <string type="spdxId" value="GPL-3.0+" />
    </meta>

This commit fixes nixpkgs-lint, too.

Vladimír Čunát 42808fa281 nix-env --upgrade: show "downgrading" when doing so
It was strange to show "upgrading" when the version was getting lower.
This is left on "upgrading" when the versions are the same,
as I can't see any better wording.

Vladimír Čunát 64f9b511be nix-env --upgrade: avoid unexpected downgrades
Until now, if one explicitly installed a low-priority version,
nix-env --upgrade would downgrade it by default and even with --leq.
Let's never accept an upgrade with version not matching the upgradeType.
Additionally, let's never decrease the priority of an installed package;
you can use --install to force that.

Also refactor to use variable bestVersion instead of bestName,
as only version was used from it.

Eelco Dolstra b83801f8b3 Optimize small lists
The value pointers of lists with 1 or 2 elements are now stored in the
list value itself. In particular, this makes the "concatMap (x: if
cond then [(f x)] else [])" idiom cheaper.

Alternatively or additionally I propose a mode where only the *last* generation will be sparse.
