Eelco Dolstra 812c0dfbe2 Allow setting the state directory as a store parameter
E.g. "local?store=/tmp/store&state=/tmp/var".

Eelco Dolstra 41633f9f73 Improved logging abstraction
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.

Vladimír Čunát 03cbb9ad59 nix-env: respect meta.outputsToInstall

Eelco Dolstra b3e8d72770 Merge pull request #762 from ctheune/ctheune-floats
Implement floats
2016-02-12 12:49:59 +01:00
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.
2015-09-17 12:09:54 +02:00
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

Ricardo M. Correia 700c678c2e nix-env: Minor change to '--delete-generations Nd' semantics
The option '--delete-generations Nd' deletes all generations older than N
days. However, most likely the user does not want to delete the
generation that was active N days ago.

For example, say that you have these 3 generations:

1: <30 days ago>
2: <15 days ago>
3: <1 hour ago>

If you do --delete-generations 7d (say, as part of a cron job), most
likely you still want to keep generation 2, i.e. the generation that was
active 7 days ago (and for most of the past 7 days, in fact).

This patch fixes this issue. Note that this also affects
'nix-collect-garbage --delete-older-than Nd'.

Thanks to @roconnor for noticing the issue!

Eelco Dolstra 25386e5edc Fix passing meta attribute to buildenv.nix
Since the meta attributes were not sorted, attribute lookup could
fail, leading to package priorities and active flags not working
correctly.

Eelco Dolstra 3fd01b171a Set up a minimal /dev in chroots
Not bind-mounting the /dev from the host also solves the problem with
/dev/shm being a symlink to something not in the chroot.
2014-02-27 23:17:53 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 1aa19b24b2 Add a flag ‘--check’ to verify build determinism
The flag ‘--check’ to ‘nix-store -r’ or ‘nix-build’ will cause Nix to
redo the build of a derivation whose output paths are already valid.
If the new output differs from the original output, an error is
printed.  This makes it easier to test if a build is deterministic.
(Obviously this cannot catch all sources of non-determinism, but it
catches the most common one, namely the current time.)

For example:

  $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf
  ...
  $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf --check
  error: derivation `/nix/store/1ipvxsdnbhl1rw6siz6x92s7sc8nwkkb-patchelf-0.6' may not be deterministic: hash mismatch in output `/nix/store/4pc1dmw5xkwmc6q3gdc9i5nbjl4dkjpp-patchelf-0.6.drv'

The --check build fails if not all outputs are valid.  Thus the first
call to nix-build is necessary to ensure that all outputs are valid.

The current outputs are left untouched: the new outputs are either put
in a chroot or diverted to a different location in the store using
hash rewriting.

Eelco Dolstra 2c1ecf8e81 nix-env -i: Add a flag ‘--remove-all’ / ‘-r’
This is equivalent to running ‘nix-env -e '*'’ first, except that it
happens in a single transaction.  Thus, ‘nix-env -i pkgs...’ replaces
the profile with the specified set of packages.

The main motivation is to support declarative package management
(similar to environment.systemPackages in NixOS).  That is, if you
have a specification ‘profile.nix’ like this:

  with import <nixpkgs> {};
  [ thunderbird
    geeqie
    ...
  ]

then after any change to ‘profile.nix’, you can run:

  $ nix-env -f profile.nix -ir

to update the profile to match the specification.  (Without the ‘-r’
flag, if you remove a package from ‘profile.nix’, it won't be removed
from the actual profile.)

Suggested by @zefhemel.

Eelco Dolstra ef4f5ba85e Work on Values instead of Exprs
This prevents some duplicate evaluation in nix-env and
nix-instantiate.

Also, when traversing ~/.nix-defexpr, only read regular files with the
extension .nix.  Previously it was reading files like
.../channels/binary-caches/<name>.  The only reason this didn't cause
problems is pure luck (namely, <name> shadows an actual Nix
expression, the binary-caches files happen to be syntactically valid
Nix expressions, and we iterate over the directory contents in just
the right order).

Eelco Dolstra 6f809194d7 Get rid of the parse tree cache
Since we already cache files in normal form (fileEvalCache), caching

Eelco Dolstra 1ecc97b6bd * Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle

  the search path.  This allows us to get rid of hacks like

    import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib"

  The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag
  and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable,
  e.g.,

    $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ...

  If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is
  lazily thrown.

Eelco Dolstra fb9368b5a0 * Sync with the trunk. 2010-11-16 12:49:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e11e6fb1c6 * Handle out of memory condition. 2010-10-28 12:29:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 43535499f3 * When allocating an attribute set, reserve enough space for all
elements.  This prevents the vector from having to resize itself.

Eelco Dolstra e0b7fb8f27 * Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups.
* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST.
* Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.

Eelco Dolstra 3f66cfb96b * Remove allocValues(). 2010-10-23 18:18:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 41c45a9b31 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly.  This improves
  the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
  stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
  causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.

Eelco Dolstra 64c3325b0b * Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option. 2010-10-22 13:39:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e879a0371b * Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the Nix
expression evaluator.
