2017-01-26 Add support for passing structured data to buildersEelco Dolstra4-58/+130
Previously, all derivation attributes had to be coerced into strings so that they could be passed via the environment. This is lossy (e.g. lists get flattened, necessitating configureFlags vs. configureFlagsArray, of which the latter cannot be specified as an attribute), doesn't support attribute sets at all, and has size limitations (necessitating hacks like passAsFile). This patch adds a new mode for passing attributes to builders, namely encoded as a JSON file ".attrs.json" in the current directory of the builder. This mode is activated via the special attribute __structuredAttrs = true; (The idea is that one day we can set this in stdenv.mkDerivation.) For example, stdenv.mkDerivation { __structuredAttrs = true; name = "foo"; buildInputs = [ pkgs.hello pkgs.cowsay ]; doCheck = true; hardening.format = false; } results in a ".attrs.json" file containing (sans the indentation): { "buildInputs": [], "builder": "/nix/store/ygl61ycpr2vjqrx775l1r2mw1g2rb754-bash-4.3-p48/bin/bash", "configureFlags": [ "--with-foo", "--with-bar=1 2" ], "doCheck": true, "hardening": { "format": false }, "name": "foo", "nativeBuildInputs": [ "/nix/store/10h6li26i7g6z3mdpvra09yyf10mmzdr-hello-2.10", "/nix/store/4jnvjin0r6wp6cv1hdm5jbkx3vinlcvk-cowsay-3.03" ], "propagatedBuildInputs": [], "propagatedNativeBuildInputs": [], "stdenv": "/nix/store/f3hw3p8armnzy6xhd4h8s7anfjrs15n2-stdenv", "system": "x86_64-linux" } "passAsFile" is ignored in this mode because it's not needed - large strings are included directly in the JSON representation. It is up to the builder to do something with the JSON representation. For example, in bash-based builders, lists/attrsets of string values could be mapped to bash (associative) arrays.

nix-shell: Fix 'nix-shell --command' doing nothing without TTY
2017-01-07 nix-shell: Fix 'nix-shell --command' doing nothing without TTYTuomas Tynkkynen1-1/+2
Regression from a5f2750e ("Fix early removal of rc-file for nix-shell"). The removal of BASH_ENV causes nothing to be executed by bash if it detects itself in a non-interactive context. Instead, just use the same condition used by bash to launch bash differently. According to bash sources, the condition (stdin and stder both must be TTYs) is specified by POSIX so this should be pretty safe to rely on. Fixes #1171 on master, needs a backport to the Perl code in 1.11.

2017-01-03 nix-shell: Fix 'nix-shell -i'Tuomas Tynkkynen1-1/+1
The 'args' variable here is shadowing one in the outer scope and its contents end up unused. This causes any '#! nix-shell' lines to effectively be ignored. The intention here was to clear the args vector, as far as I can tell (and it seems to work).
