2016-07-21 NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS path must be absolute (#957)Matthias Beyer1-1/+2
Once upon a time, I wrote my bachelors thesis about functional deployment mechanisms. I had to evaluate several szenarios where package management and deployment were relevant. One szenario was to do distributed builds over several machines. I told myself: Weee, nix can do this! And with nix, this is actually save, as you do not have side effects when building! So I started. I use a cloud to set up four virtual machines where I wanted to do the build. A fifth machine was used as master to distribute the builds. All was good. I created the necessary SSH keys, made sure every machine was reachable by the master and configured the build in my remotes.conf. When I started to try to build weechat from source, the build failed. It failed, telling me error: unable to start any build; either increase ‘--max-jobs’ or enable distributed builds And I started to dig around. I digged long and good. But I wasn't able to find the issue. I double and triple checked my environment variables, my settings, the SSH key and everything. I reached out to fellow Nixers by asking on the nixos IRC channel. And I got help. But we weren't able to find the issue, either. So I became frustrated. I re-did all the environment variables. And suddenly,... it worked! What did I change? Well... I made the environment variables which contained pathes contain absolute pathes rather than relatives. And because I like to share my knowledge, this should be put into the documentation, so others do not bang their heads against the wall because something is not documented somewhere.

Don't hardcode docbook XSL namespace URL
2016-07-04 Don't hardcode docbook XSL namespace URLaszlig1-1/+1
Docbook XSL got updated to version 1.79.1 in NixOS/nixpkgs@fb893a8 and we're still referring to the hardcoded previous version. So instead of just updating this to 1.79.1 we're going to use "current" in the hope that this won't happen again. I have tested this by building the manual under Nix(OS) but I haven't tested this in a non-Nix environment, so I'm not sure whether this could have implications.

Remove nix-copy-closure reference note from nix-store docs

nix-copy-closure is not using nix-store directly anymore.
2016-06-09 Run builds in a user namespaceEelco Dolstra1-14/+65
This way, all builds appear to have a uid/gid of 0 inside the chroot. In the future, this may allow using programs like systemd-nspawn inside builds, but that will require assigning a larger UID/GID map to the build. Issue #625.

2016-06-03 Support sandbox builds by non-root usersEelco Dolstra3-53/+69
This allows an unprivileged user to perform builds on a diverted store (i.e. where the physical store location differs from the logical location). Example: $ NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/log NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/store&state=/tmp/var" nix-build -E \ 'with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" { buildInputs = [procps nettools]; } "id; ps; ifconfig; echo $out > $out"' will do a build in the Nix store physically in /tmp/store but logically in /nix/store (and thus using substituters for the latter).

2016-06-02 nix run: Mount the Nix store in a private namespaceEelco Dolstra2-1/+25
This is a convenience command to allow users who are not privileged to create /nix/store to use Nix with regular binary caches. For example, $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=$HOME/nix/var&real=/$HOME/nix/store" nix run firefox bashInteractive will download Firefox and bash from cache.nixos.org, then start a shell in which $HOME/nix/store is mounted on /nix/store.

2016-06-02 LocalStore: Allow the physical and logical store directories to differEelco Dolstra7-158/+68
This is primarily to subsume the functionality of the copy-from-other-stores substituter. For example, in the NixOS installer, we can now do (assuming we're in the target chroot, and the Nix store of the installation CD is bind-mounted on /tmp/nix): $ nix-build ... --option substituters 'local?state=/tmp/nix/var&real=/tmp/nix/store' However, unlike copy-from-other-stores, this also allows write access to such a store. One application might be fetching substitutes for /nix/store in a situation where the user doesn't have sufficient privileges to create /nix, e.g.: $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=/home/alice/nix/var&real=/home/alice/nix/store" nix-build ...

2016-06-01 <nix/fetchurl.nix>: Use tarballs.nixos.orgEelco Dolstra1-20/+35
This ensures that the disappearance of upstream bootstrap tarballs (e.g. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/pull/1) doesn't break stdenv rebuilds.
