Eelco Dolstra 426593162e * ATermMap needs an assignment operator, otherwise we are screwed. 2005-05-08 10:28:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 77557a6f06 Commit 3000!
* Make the `derivation' primitive much more lazy.  The expression
  `derivation attrs' now evaluates to (essentially)

    attrs // {
      type = "derivation";
      outPath = derivation! attrs;
      drvPath = derivation! attrs;
    }

  where `derivation!' is a primop that does the actual derivation
  instantiation (i.e., it does what `derivation' used to do).  The
  advantage is that it allows commands such as `nix-env -qa' and
  `nix-env -i' to be much faster since they no longer need to
  instantiate all derivations, just the `name' attribute.  (However,
  `nix-env' doesn't yet take advantage of this since it still always
  evaluates the `outPath' and `drvPath' attributes).

  Also, this allows derivations to cyclically reference each other,
  for example,

    webServer = derivation {
      ...
      hostName = "svn.cs.uu.nl";
      services = [svnService];
    };

    svnService = derivation {
      ...
      hostName = webServer.hostName;
    };

  Previously, this would yield a black hole (infinite recursion).

Eelco Dolstra 52a2f41320 * Include some required header files. 2005-05-04 16:33:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 26fd28432d * FreeBSD 4.x doesn't have stdint.h, use inttypes.h instead (which is
also part of ISO C).
2005-05-04 16:32:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 5dea0622d1 * Idem (constness fix).
* `compare' in GCC 2.95 is broken.
2005-05-04 16:31:49 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4a266e35d4 * GCC 2.95 compatibility fix in constness; strangely, I think this
should not have worked at all.
2005-05-04 16:31:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra d7b3cdbd91 * GCC 2.95 compatibility. Prevents internal compiler error in member
template friends.
2005-05-04 16:30:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ae6d9033a1 * The eof() state isn't guaranteed to be set non-lazily. GCC 2.95
compatibility fix.
2005-05-04 16:29:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 02f2da0142 * Merging from nix-make branch:
- Add __currentTime primitive (dangerous!).
  - Allow imports of derivations.
2005-05-02 14:44:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f913283570 * Remove redundant message. 2005-04-13 09:20:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f3660b1c8c * Garbage collector fix: allow deletion of paths that have invalid
(but substitutable) referers.
2005-04-12 10:51:00 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra cab7816b56 * Slightly nicer message. 2005-04-11 08:07:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c9c58dba55 * Primop `__currentSystem' to return the current platform identifier. 2005-04-10 17:38:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c702dfca3f * nix-store: --substitute' -> --register-substitutes'. 2005-04-08 13:48:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4271385a73 * Make `nix-store --query --tree' work on non-derivations (i.e., on
any store path).
2005-04-08 12:57:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 10c429c757 * If store paths are specified as sources in Nix expressions, don't
copy them, but use them directly.
2005-04-07 14:35:01 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f9848d4f31 * Support base-32 hash representations. 2005-04-07 14:33:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c815aff21b * `nix-store --add-fixed' to preload the outputs of fixed-output
derivations.  This is mostly to simplify the implementation of
  nix-prefetch-{url, svn}, which now work properly in setuid
  installations.

* Enforce valid store names in `nix-store --add / --add-fixed'.
2005-04-07 14:01:51 +00:00

Eelco Dolstra 0df9f08078 * Export the references graph to the build hook. 2005-03-23 13:16:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3f236f01ae * `nix-store --register-validity': allow a path to refer to a path
listed later in the list of new valid paths.
2005-03-23 13:07:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a04c62e0c4 * Canonicalise path meta-data in `nix-store --register-validity'. 2005-03-23 12:06:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f20f081560 * nix-store: --isvalid' -> --check-validity', `--validpath' ->
`--register-validity'.
* `nix-store --register-validity': read arguments from stdin, and
  allow the references and deriver to be set.
2005-03-23 11:25:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c757d16c8c * Bug in clearSubstitutes(). 2005-03-14 18:54:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 08df443618 * Check for duplicate attributes and formal parameters in Nix
expressions.
2005-03-10 11:33:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4bbdcfbb45 * Don't use fork() in copyPath(), but a string buffer. 2005-03-03 13:58:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 86cb3cc554 * Increase Berkeley DB limits a bit more.
* Maintain the cleanup invariant in clearSubstitutes().
2005-03-03 13:10:44 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 07b4399fb6 * `nix-store -q --hash' to quickly query the hash of the contents of a
store path (which is stored in the database).
2005-03-02 15:57:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bfaf83a0fd * When multiple derivations are specified in `nix-store -r', don't
continue building when one fails unless `--keep-going' is
  specified.
* When `--keep-going' is specified, print out the set of failing
  derivations at the end (otherwise it can be hard to find out which
  failed).
2005-02-23 11:19:27 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3a2c3f0cf2 * Support for fixed-output hashes over directory trees (i.e., over the
NAR dump of the path).
2005-02-22 21:14:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra eda2c3c253 * Compatibility hack so that Nixpkgs can continue to do hash checking
in `fetchurl' in Nix <= 0.7, but doesn't in Nix 0.8.
2005-02-22 15:23:24 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 3c1630131e * Subtle bug in the builder: if a subgoal that is instantiated
multiple times is also a top-level goal, then the second and later
  instantiations would never be created because there would be a
  stable pointer to the first one that would keep it alive in the
  WeakGoalMap.
* Some tracing code for debugging this kind of problem.
2005-02-18 09:50:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e0181f56be * `nix-store -q --tree' shows a tree representing the dependency graph
of the given derivation.  Useful for getting a quick overview of how
  something was built.  E.g., to find out how the `baffle' program in
  your user environment was built, you can do

    $ nix-store -q --tree $(nix-store -qd $(which baffle))

  Tree nesting depth is minimised (?) by topologically sorting paths
  under the relation A < B iff A \in closure(B).
2005-02-17 15:57:46 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 74ab0695b5 * Compatibility hack with older user environments. 2005-02-17 15:48:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8a3a96dd5b * Switch to the calling user context for some more operations in a
setuid installation.
2005-02-17 13:55:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 88273f9574 * Put build logs in $prefix/var/nix/log/drvs/. 2005-02-17 13:54:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 202d5bbda5 * Compatibility with older GCCs. 2005-02-15 12:05:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e17910cfb5 * And yet another installation source: the ability to copy user
environment elements from one user environment to another, e.g.,

    $ nix-env -i --from-profile /nix/var/nix/profiles/other-profile aterm
    
  copies the `aterm' component installed in the `other-profile' to the
  user's current profile.
2005-02-15 10:49:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 8992fce3da * It is now possible to add store derivations or paths directly to a
user environment, e.g.,

    $ nix-env -i /nix/store/z58v41v21xd3ywrqk1vmvdwlagjx7f10-aterm-2.3.1.drv

  or 

    $ nix-env -i /nix/store/hsyj5pbn0d9iz7q0aj0fga7cpaadvp1l-aterm-2.3.1

  This is useful because it allows Nix expressions to be bypassed
  entirely.  For instance, if only a nix-pull manifest is provided,
  plus the top-level path of some component, it can be installed
  without having to supply the Nix expression (e.g., for obfuscation,
  or to be independent of Nix expression language changes or context
  dependencies).
2005-02-14 17:35:10 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra e446d342b7 * Added an installation source --from-expression' (or -E') to
install derivations from a Nix expression specified on the command
  line.  This is particularly useful for disambiguation if there are
  multiple derivations with the same name.  For instance, in Nixpkgs,
  to install the Firefox wrapper rather than the plain Firefox
  component:

    $ nix-env -f .../i686-linux.nix -i -E 'x: x.firefoxWrapper'

  The Nix expressions should be functions to which the default Nix
  expression (in this case, `i686-linux.nix') is passed, hence `x:
  ...'.

  This might also be a nice way to deal with high-level (user-level)
  variability, e.g.,

    $ nix-env -f ./server.nix -i -E 'x: x {port = 8080; ssl = false;}'
2005-02-14 17:07:43 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 0cb016c209 * Refactoring. Hope this doesn't break the semantics of `-u' ;-) 2005-02-14 16:16:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra a04a5de8f7 * Implement the `gc-keep-derivations' global configuretion flag. 2005-02-14 14:16:56 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6a8ef36fe6 * Global configuration option `env-keep-derivations' to store pointer
to derivations in user environments.  Nice for developers (since it
  prevents build-time-only dependencies from being GC'ed, in
  conjunction with `gc-keep-outputs').  Turned off by default.
2005-02-14 13:07:09 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra b0aba6ec2a * Don't keep the derivation symlink when creating profile generations. 2005-02-14 10:44:57 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 32429142cd * Type error in constructor call (caught by GCC 3.3, but not 3.4!). 2005-02-14 09:53:11 +00:00
