Eelco Dolstra ee1254d4f5 nix: Add --impure as a shorter alias of --no-pure-eval 2019-04-08 23:19:19 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 6a4c7fb975 Add path flakeref variant
Unlike file://<path>, this allows the path to be a dirty Git tree, so

  nix build /path/to/flake:attr

is a convenient way to test building a local flake.

Eelco Dolstra 154244adc6 nix: New installables syntax
The general syntax for an installable is now
<flakeref>:<attrpath>. The attrpath is relative to the flake's
'provides.packages' or 'provides' if the former doesn't yield a
result. E.g.

  $ nix build nixpkgs:hello

is equivalent to

  $ nix build nixpkgs:packages.hello

Also, '<flakeref>:' can be omitted, in which case it defaults to
'nixpkgs', e.g.

  $ nix build hello

fetchFlake: Use infinite TTL when the revision is specified 2019-02-25 23:23:45 +08:00

downloadCached: Return ETag
This allows fetchFlake() to return the Git revision of a GitHub
archive.

nix: Add --flake flag
This allows using an arbitrary "provides" attribute from the specified
flake. For example:

  nix build --flake nixpkgs packages.hello

(Maybe provides.packages should be used for consistency...)

Enforce use of immutable flakes in pure mode
... plus a temporary hack to allow impure flakes at top-level for the
default installation source.

nix: Enable pure mode by default
We want to encourage a brave new world of hermetic evaluation for
source-level reproducibility, so flakes should not poke around in the
filesystem outside of their explicit dependencies.

Note that the default installation source remains impure in that it
can refer to mutable flakes, so "nix build nixpkgs.hello" still works
(and fetches the latest nixpkgs, unless it has been pinned by the
user).

A problem with pure evaluation is that builtins.currentSystem is
unavailable. For the moment, I've hard-coded "x86_64-linux" in the
nixpkgs flake. Eventually, "system" should be a flake function
argument.

Add github URIs
For example, github:edolstra/dwarffs is more-or-less equivalent to
https://github.com/edolstra/dwarffs.git. It's a much faster way to get
GitHub repositories: it fetches tarballs rather than entire Git
repositories. It also allows fetching specific revisions by hash
without specifying a ref (e.g. a branch name):

  github:edolstra/dwarffs/41c0c1bf292ea3ac3858ff393b49ca1123dbd553
