//! `tvix-eval` implements the evaluation of the Nix programming language in //! Tvix. //! //! It is designed to allow users to use Nix as a versatile language for //! different use-cases. //! //! This module exports the high-level functions and types needed for evaluating //! Nix code and interacting with the language's data structures. //! //! Nix has several language features that make use of impurities (such as //! reading from the NIX_PATH environment variable, or interacting with files). //! These features are optional and the API of this crate exposes functionality //! for controlling how they work. pub mod builtins; mod chunk; mod compiler; mod errors; mod io; pub mod observer; mod opcode; mod pretty_ast; mod source; mod spans; mod systems; mod upvalues; mod value; mod vm; mod warnings; mod nix_search_path; #[cfg(test)] mod properties; #[cfg(test)] mod test_utils; #[cfg(test)] mod tests; use std::path::PathBuf; use std::rc::Rc; use std::str::FromStr; use std::sync::Arc; use crate::compiler::GlobalsMap; use crate::observer::{CompilerObserver, RuntimeObserver}; use crate::value::Lambda; use crate::vm::run_lambda; // Re-export the public interface used by other crates. pub use crate::compiler::{compile, prepare_globals, CompilationOutput}; pub use crate::errors::{Error, ErrorKind, EvalResult}; pub use crate::io::{DummyIO, EvalIO, FileType}; pub use crate::pretty_ast::pretty_print_expr; pub use crate::source::SourceCode; pub use crate::value::{Builtin, BuiltinArgument, NixAttrs, NixList, NixString, Value}; pub use crate::vm::VM; pub use crate::warnings::{EvalWarning, WarningKind}; #[cfg(feature = "impure")] pub use crate::io::StdIO; /// An `Evaluation` represents how a piece of Nix code is evaluated.
