puck 1fe58bd8a7 nix cat/dump-path/key: stop progress bar before writeFull
These commands outputs data that may not end with a newline. This
causes problems when the progress bar redraws, as that completely
wipes the last line of output. As nix key generate-secret outputs
a single line of text with no output, it shows up entirely blank,
making it look like nothing happened.

jade 748d8310fa Fix the pages in the manual for Lix
This doesn't comprehensively fix everything outdated in the manual, or
make the manual greatly better, but it does note down where at least
jade noticed it was wrong, and it does fix all the instances of
referencing Nix to conform to the style guide to the best of our
ability.

A lot of things have been commented out for being wrong, and there are
three types of FIXME introduced:

- FIXME(Lix): generically Lix needs to fix it
- FIXME(Qyriad): re lix-project/lix#215
- FIXME(meson): docs got outdated by meson changes and need rewriting

I did fix a bunch of it that I could, but there could certainly be
mistakes and this is definitely just an incremental improvement.

Maximilian Bosch f8617f9dc6 Merge "Rename nix show-config to nix config show" into main 2024-05-03 22:07:33 +00:00
Théophane Hufschmitt 8458d98b27 Rename nix show-config to nix config show
Part of #7672

My main motivation is to be able to use `nix.checkConfig`[1]. This
doesn't work with Lix currently since the module uses `nix show-config`
if the Nix version is <2.20pre and `nix config show` otherwise. I think
this is the only instance where nixpkgs checks for which Nix commands
exist that affects us now, so I figured we could just perform the rename
here as well[2] and still provide the current version number[3].

I don't have a strong opinion on whether to deprecate `nix show-config`,
the warning is added there automatically.

(cherry picked from commit f300e11b056dea414d7d77bbc6e5a7dc5d9ddd41)

[1] https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options.html#opt-nix.checkConfig
[2] I should add that I don't use the "official" ways of installing Lix
    because using the flake directly and callPackaging it seemed to fit
    better into my workflow: I already have a little mess to make
    sure Hydra from the flake uses the correct pkgs.nix and I didn't
    want to complicate it further while keeping a single package-set I
    can build in CI. Don't get me wrong, I think such a module for a
    quick-start is very important, just giving context on why I bother
    in the first place :)
[3] When we go public, I think it's worth considering to add support in
    nixpkgs itself for Lix.

Qyriad 194ba8a02f docs: guide to installables docs in installable commands' docs
The installables syntax is not documented in any of the man pages or
docbook pages for any of those individual commands. And while these
commands really should at least peripherally individually document how
installables work, in the meantime we can at least direct people to the
right place.

This commit also clarifies the unexpected fact that `nix profile remove`
and `nix profile upgrade` do *not* take installables.

Qyriad aae12f5848 fix nix upgrade-nix on new-style profiles
nix3-profile automatically migrates any profile its used on to its style
of profile -- the ones with manifest.json instead of manifest.nix. On
non-NixOS systems, Nix is conventionally installed to the profile at
/nix/var/nix/profiles/default, so if a user passed that to `--profile`
of `nix profile`, then it would break upgrade-nix from ever working
again, without recreating the profile.

This commit fixes that, and allows upgrade-nix to work on either kind of
profile.

Fixes #16.

jade 54bc1f1b98 "but doctor, I AM the untrusted store": nix doctor had wrong trustedness
This probably snuck in in a refactor using truthiness or so. The
trustedness flag was having the optional fullness checked, rather than
the actual contained trust level.

Also adds some tests.

jade edba570664 HOT SALE: 15% off your build times!
This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the
build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json
eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits
out of widely included headers.

It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the
build had immediate and predictable results.

Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end
time approximately invariant.

John Ericson 3d065192c0 Overhaul completions, redo #6693 (#8131)
As I complained in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6784#issuecomment-1421777030 (a
comment on the wrong PR, sorry again!), #6693 introduced a second
completions mechanism to fix a bug. Having two completion mechanisms
isn't so nice.

As @thufschmitt also pointed out, it was a bummer to go from `FlakeRef`
to `std::string` when collecting flake refs. Now it is `FlakeRefs`
again.

The underlying issue that sought to work around was that completion of
arguments not at the end can still benefit from the information from
latter arguments.

To fix this better, we rip out that change and simply defer all
completion processing until after all the (regular, already-complete)
arguments have been passed.

In addition, I noticed the original completion logic used some global
variables. I do not like global variables, because even if they save
lines of code, they also obfuscate the architecture of the code.

I got rid of them  moved them to a new `RootArgs` class, which now has
`parseCmdline` instead of `Args`. The idea is that we have many argument
parsers from subcommands and what-not, but only one root args that owns
the other per actual parsing invocation. The state that was global is
now part of the root args instead.

This did, admittedly, add a bunch of new code. And I do feel bad about
that. So I went and added a lot of API docs to try to at least make the
current state of things clear to the next person.

--

This is needed for RFC 134 (tracking issue #7868). It was very hard to
modularize `Installable` parsing when there were two completion
arguments. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is *easy* now, but at least
it is less hard (and the completions test finally passed).

Qyriad b4d07656ff build: optionally build and install with meson
This commit adds several meson.build, which successfully build and
install Lix executables, libraries, and headers. Meson does not yet
build docs, Perl bindings, or run tests, which will be added in
following commits. As such, this commit does not remove the existing
build system, or make it the default, and also as such, this commit has
several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the
existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the
default. This commit does not modify any source files.

A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to
`nix flake check`.

eldritch horrors 1f8b85786e libutil: remove vfork
vfork confers a large performance advantage over fork, measured locally
at 16µs per vfork agains 90µs per fork. however nix *almost always*
follows a vfork up with an execve-family call, melting the performance
advantage from 6x to only 15%. in most of those cases it's doing things
that are undefined behavior (like manipulating the heap, or even
throwing exceptions and trashing the parent process stack).

most notably the one place that could benefit from the vfork performance
improvement is linux derivation sandbox setup—which doesn't use vfork.

eldritch horrors 08252967a8 libexpr: Support structured error classes
While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in
dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of

    EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v))

we could write

    TypeError(v, "boolean")

or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical
refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to
be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the
codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error
from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first
step towards error codes / an error index.

This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to
support exception types with different constructor signatures than
`BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data
will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to
touch every exception in `libexpr`).

The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this:

    state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
      .debugThrow<TypeError>()

are transformed like this:

    state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
      .debugThrow()

The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to
`EvalState::error`.

Rebecca Turner 6ef9d8efba Print derivation paths in nix eval
`nix eval` forces values and prints derivations as attribute sets, so
commands that print derivations (e.g. `nix eval nixpkgs#bash`) will
infinitely loop and segfault.

Printing derivations as `.drv` paths makes `nix eval` complete as
expected. Further work is needed, but this is better than a segfault.

John Ericson 7ad66cb3ef Allow dynamic derivation deps in inputDrvs
We use the same nested map representation we used for goals, again in
order to save space. We might someday want to combine with `inputDrvs`,
by doing `V = bool` instead of `V = std::set<OutputName>`, but we are
not doing that yet for sake of a smaller diff.

The ATerm format for Derivations also needs to be extended, in addition
to the in-memory format. To accomodate this, we added a new basic
versioning scheme, so old versions of Nix will get nice errors. (And
going forward, if the ATerm format changes again the errors will be even
better.)

`parsedStrings`, an internal function used as part of parsing
derivations in A-Term format, used to consume the final `]` but expect
the initial `[` to already be consumed. This made for what looked like
unbalanced brackets at callsites, which was confusing. Now it consumes
both which is hopefully less confusing.

As part of testing, we also created a unit test for the A-Term format for
regular non-experimental derivations too.

John Ericson 9121fed4b4 Fixing #7479
Types converted:

- `NixStringContextElem`
- `OutputsSpec`
- `ExtendedOutputsSpec`
- `DerivationOutput`
- `DerivationType`

Existing ones mostly conforming the pattern cleaned up:

- `ContentAddressMethod`
- `ContentAddressWithReferences`

The `DerivationGoal::derivationType` field had a bogus initialization,
now caught, so I made it `std::optional`. I think #8829 can make it
non-optional again because it will ensure we always have the derivation
when we construct a `DerivationGoal`.

See that issue (#7479) for details on the general goal.

`git grep 'Raw::Raw'` indicates the two types I didn't yet convert
`DerivedPath` and `BuiltPath` (and their `Single` variants) . This is
because @roberth and I (can't find issue right now...) plan on reworking
them somewhat, so I didn't want to churn them more just yet.

John Ericson 44c8d83831 Create outputOf primop.
In the Nix language, given a drv path, we should be able to construct
another string referencing to one of its output. We can do this today
with `(import drvPath).output`, but this only works for derivations we
already have.

With dynamic derivations, however, that doesn't work well because the
`drvPath` isn't yet built: importing it like would need to trigger IFD,
when the whole point of this feature is to do "dynamic build graph"
without IFD!

Instead, what we want to do is create a placeholder value with the right
string context to refer to the output of the as-yet unbuilt derivation.
A new primop in the language, analogous to `builtins.placeholder` can be
used to create one. This will achieve all the right properties. The
placeholder machinery also will match out the `outPath` attribute for CA
derivations works.

In 60b7121d2c we added that type of
placeholder, and the derived path and string holder changes necessary to
support it. Then in the previous commit we cleaned up the code
(inspiration finally hit me!) to deduplicate the code and expose exactly
what we need. Now, we can wire up the primop trivally!

John Ericson 60b7121d2c Make the Derived Path family of types inductive for dynamic derivations
We want to be able to write down `foo.drv^bar.drv^baz`:
`foo.drv^bar.drv` is the dynamic derivation (since it is itself a
derivation output, `bar.drv` from `foo.drv`).

To that end, we create `Single{Derivation,BuiltPath}` types, that are
very similar except instead of having multiple outputs (in a set or
map), they have a single one. This is for everything to the left of the
rightmost `^`.

`NixStringContextElem` has an analogous change, and now can reuse
`SingleDerivedPath` at the top level. In fact, if we ever get rid of
`DrvDeep`, `NixStringContextElem` could be replaced with
`SingleDerivedPath` entirely!

Important note: some JSON formats have changed.

We already can *produce* dynamic derivations, but we can't refer to them
directly. Today, we can merely express building or example at the top
imperatively over time by building `foo.drv^bar.drv`, and then with a
second nix invocation doing `<result-from-first>^baz`, but this is not
declarative. The ethos of Nix of being able to write down the full plan
everything you want to do, and then execute than plan with a single
command, and for that we need the new inductive form of these types.

nix/why-depends: fix output of --precise
I haven't checked when this was exactly introduced, but on Nix 2.16 I
realized that the additional lines inserted when using `--precise` are
completely separated from the tree:

    nix why-depends /nix/store/ccgr4faaxys39s091qridxg1947lggh4-evcxr-0.14.2 /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0 --precise --extra-experimental-features nix-command

        → /nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0
            → /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0
    └───bin/evcxr: …':'}.PATH=${PATH/':''/nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0/bin'':'/':'}…

This is apparently because `std::cout` is buffered and flushed in the
end whereas the rest of the output isn't. The fix is rather simple, just
use `logger->cout` as it's already the case for the rest of the code.

This way we also don't need to insert additional newlines in the `hits`
map since that's something the logger takes care of.

Also added a small test to make sure that the layout of this is somehow
tested to reduce the risk of further regressions here.

John Ericson 903700c5e1 Simplify ContentAddress
Whereas `ContentAddressWithReferences` is a sum type complex because different
varieties support different notions of reference, and
`ContentAddressMethod` is a nested enum to support that,
`ContentAddress` can be a simple pair of a method and hash.

`ContentAddress` does not need to be a sum type on the outside because
the choice of method doesn't effect what type of hashes we can use.

nix flake check: improve error message if overlay is not a lambda (#8582)
* nix flake check: improve error message if overlay is not a lambda

Suppose you have an overlay like this

    {
      inputs = { /* ... */ };
      outputs = { flake-utils, ... }: flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem
        (system: {
          overlays.default = final: prev: {

          };
        });
    }

then `nix flake check` (correctly) fails because `overlays` are supposed
to have the structure `overlays.<name> = final: prev: exp`. However, the
error-message is a little bit counter-intuitive:

    error: overlay does not take an argument named 'final'

While one might guess where the error actually comes from because the
trace above says `… while checking the overlay 'overlays.x86_64-linux'`
this is still pretty confusing because it complains about an argument
not being named `final` even though that's evidently the case.

With this change, the error-message actually makes it clear what's
wrong:

    [ma27@carsten:~/Projects/nix/tmp]$ nix flake check --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' path:$(pwd)
    error:
           … while checking flake output 'overlays'

                 |     ^
                5|       kek = throw "snens";

           … while checking the overlay 'overlays.x86_64-linux'
