Eelco Dolstra a29b64a231 * Better error checking. 2006-08-01 13:50:10 +00:00
Armijn Hemel 4fde308ec0 add a flag --target, so we can override the URL in the MANIFEST file. This
is only for local copies (so file:///)

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 6ac237e242 * Show some progress. 2006-08-01 09:43:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4661282fde * `nix-instantiate ... --arg NAME VALUE': allow arguments to be passed
to functions from the command line.
* nix-build: started removing backticks.
2006-07-28 16:03:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c11839d7b2 * `nix-instantiate --print-args': print out the valid values for
functions arguments that have a domain.
2006-07-28 14:01:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ca2238cf81 * Refactoring: get the selection path stuff out of getDerivations()
and put it into a separate function findAlongAttrPath().
2006-07-26 15:05:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2317d8f671 * `nix-instantiate --print-args' prints out the arguments of a
top-level function.

Eelco Dolstra 0e6dc72a7a * Applied rbroek's patch from the branch at
https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/buildfarm-control/trunk/ext/nix/,
  with some modifications.  This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the
  attribute path that can be used to unambiguously install a package
  using `nix-env -i -A'.  Example:

    $ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server
    subversionWithJava  subversion-1.2.3
    subversion          subversion-1.3.2
    subversion14        subversion-1.4.0pre-rc1
    xorg.xorgserver     xorg-server-1.1.0
2006-07-25 16:40:38 +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.

Eelco Dolstra 7a3a5d1608 * When there is a domain check, we have to evaluate the argument.
Can't be lazy!
2006-07-24 16:49:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f4c5531d92 * New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a function
argument has a valid value, i.e., is in a certain domain.  E.g.,

    { foo : [true false]
    , bar : ["a" "b" "c"]
    }: ...

  This previously could be done using assertions, but domain checks
  will allow the buildfarm to automatically extract the configuration
  space from functions.
2006-07-24 16:35:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 88acffa20a * `touch' might not be in $PATH. 2006-07-24 16:19:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b545c669a0 * Tests for domain checks. 2006-07-24 15:50:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 57751fdb55 * Refactoring to support domain checks. 2006-07-24 15:16:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9c3099d328 * Purify `make check'. 2006-07-21 13:21:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 7adaa6d446 * Test for runtime root finding. 2006-07-21 12:46:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dcded7da47 * Don't try to do DNS lookups. 2006-07-21 12:28:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a4273156c4 * Use $(libexecdir) to find find-runtime-roots.pl. 2006-07-20 13:21:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 410760c5ab * Doh. 2006-07-20 12:58:51 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ee2cf45d76 * Use debug(). 2006-07-20 12:19:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra eca30e12e1 * svn:ignore. 2006-07-20 12:18:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c15f544356 * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to prevent
running applications etc. from being garbage collected.
2006-07-20 12:17:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ebcccbd358 * Added a tool to find additional roots for the garbage collector,
such as open files, current directories, mmaped files, etc.  This is
  inherently unportable, but it's easy to adapt this script to other
  platforms.  Currently we call `lsof' and try to read various bits in
  /proc/NNN.

  The goal is to prevent the garbage collector from removing store
  paths that are no longer reachable from a permanent root but that
  are still in use (for instance, after the user has done "nix-env -e"
  on a running program).
2006-07-19 16:49:59 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 88e54153dc * Add a precise test for hashDerivatioModulo. 2006-07-19 15:49:29 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4f3725b167 * Better error messages (especially wrt types). 2006-07-19 15:36:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e10b830251 * Doh! Of couse we cannot memoize across scopes. 2006-07-11 10:29:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2b4b0658fa * This expression has an undefined variable which isn't detected, so
evaluation fails:

    error: impossible: undefined variable `gcc'
2006-07-10 17:35:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d51aede4af * Allow the canonical system name to be specified at runtime in the
Nix config file.
2006-07-06 15:30:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a945fb7905 * `nix-env --upgrade --eq': only upgrade if the old version is equal
to the new version.  This is actually useful.
2006-06-27 12:17:25 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f4a3a280db * Apply the ATerm aliasing patch so that Nix works correctly with gcc 4.1.x. 2006-06-22 13:01:42 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra dbf6d7e783 * Concurrent GC on Cygwin. 2006-06-20 17:48:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cc51f9c539 * Oops. 2006-06-19 16:35:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5bb3444032 * _exit() doesn't seem to work right on Cygwin. 2006-06-19 16:24:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b35735d8b2 * On Windows we cannot delete open (lock) files, so we delete lock
files after we've closed them.  Since this only succeeds if the lock
  is no longer opened by any process, the token trick used on Unix is
  not necessary.
2006-06-19 14:43:13 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0e783e5579 * Write messages to stderr in a slightly more atomic way. Useful when
there are several parallel processes.
2006-06-19 14:37:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d7f40357e3 * Skip this test on Cygwin, too slow (and doesn't test anything Cygwin-specific). 2006-06-16 13:27:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c937b73622 * Show when we're blocked waiting for a lock. 2006-06-16 10:13:03 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 588cb0eade * In `nix-env -i|-u|-e', lock the profile to prevent races between
concurrent nix-env operations on the same profile.  Fixes NIX-7.
2006-06-15 11:56:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 49de87132f * Removed. 2006-06-15 09:16:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 48e4a3231b 2006-06-14 13:31:23 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b454977909 * Fix for a problem with BSD's group ownership semantics when the user
is not in the "wheel" group.
2006-06-14 11:53:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3a68622dda * Oops. 2006-06-14 11:52:22 +00:00
Rob Vermaas 370af25eff * Fix for a locking bug in Berkeley DB on Cygwin. 2006-06-07 15:27:17 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 23960e92df * Minor cleanup. 2006-06-01 18:13:33 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 2d456fc35a * On Cygwin, set the system type to i686-cygwin, and disable dynamic
linking.
2006-05-31 11:50:14 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bb84984f3f * svn:ignore. 2006-05-31 10:58:47 +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.
2006-05-31 09:51:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 04cf72287b * This may be useful in the future. 2006-05-31 09:24:54 +00:00
