2012-07-25 nix-profile.sh: Don't set NIX_REMOTE on single user installationsEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
Commit 6a214f3e06fa1c5f0a4d40e555f14d87691af297 reused the NixOS environment initialisation for nix-profile.sh, but this is inappropriate on systems that don't have multi-user support enabled.

2012-07-25 import: If the path is a valid .drv file, parse it and generate a derivation ↵Shea Levy3-2/+48
attrset. The generated attrset has drvPath and outPath with the right string context, type 'derivation', outputName with the right name, all with a list of outputs, and an attribute for each output. I see three uses for this (though certainly there may be more): * Using derivations generated by something besides nix-instantiate (e.g. guix) * Allowing packages provided by channels to be used in nix expressions. If a channel installed a valid deriver for each package it provides into the store, then those could be imported and used as dependencies or installed in environment.systemPackages, for example. * Enable hydra to be consistent in how it treats inputs that are outputs of another build. Right now, if an input is passed as an argument to the job, it is passed as a derivation, but if it is accessed via NIX_PATH (i.e. through the <> syntax), then it is a path that can be imported. This is problematic because the build being depended upon may have been built with non-obvious arguments passed to its jobset file. With this feature, hydra can just set the name of that input to the path to its drv file in NIX_PATH

2012-07-23 Add a test for Nix store optimisationEelco Dolstra2-1/+27
2012-07-23 Garbage collect unused links in /nix/store/.linksEelco Dolstra2-0/+39
Incremental optimisation requires creating links in /nix/store/.links to all files in the store. However, this means that if we delete a store path, no files are actually deleted because links in /nix/store/.links still exists. So we need to check /nix/store/.links for files with a link count of 1 and delete them.
2012-07-23 Automatically optimise the Nix store when a new path is addedEelco Dolstra5-10/+45
Auto-optimisation is enabled by default. It can be turned off by setting auto-optimise-store to false in nix.conf.
2012-07-23 optimiseStore(): Use a content-addressed file store in /nix/store/.linksEelco Dolstra3-115/+110
optimiseStore() now creates persistent, content-addressed hard links in /nix/store/.links. For instance, if it encounters a file P with hash H, it will create a hard link P' = /nix/store/.link/<H> to P if P' doesn't already exist; if P' exist, then P is replaced by a hard link to P'. This is better than the previous in-memory map, because it had the tendency to unnecessarily replace hard links with a hard link to whatever happened to be the first file with a given hash it encountered. It also allows on-the-fly, incremental optimisation.

2012-07-17 Add function queryPathFromHashPart()Eelco Dolstra9-0/+67
To implement binary caches efficiently, Hydra needs to be able to map the hash part of a store path (e.g. "gbg...zr7") to the full store path (e.g. "/nix/store/gbg...kzr7-subversion-1.7.5"). (The binary cache mechanism uses hash parts as a key for looking up store paths to ensure privacy.) However, doing a search in the Nix store for /nix/store/<hash>* is expensive since it requires reading the entire directory. queryPathFromHashPart() prevents this by doing a cheap database lookup.
2012-07-17 queryPathInfo(): return hash in base-32 if desiredEelco Dolstra1-2/+2
Cherry-picked from the no-manifests branch.

2012-07-11 download-from-binary-cache: Use HEAD requests if possibleEelco Dolstra1-12/+79
In "nix-env -qas", we don't need the substitute info, we just need to know if it exists. This can be done using a HTTP HEAD request, which saves bandwidth. Note however that curl currently has a bug that prevents it from reusing HTTP connections if HEAD requests return a 404: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3542731&group_id=976&atid=100976 Without the patch attached to the issue, using HEAD is actually quite a bit slower than GET.
2012-07-11 Replace hasSubstitutes() with querySubstitutablePaths()Eelco Dolstra8-24/+52
querySubstitutablePaths() takes a set of paths, so this greatly reduces daemon <-> client latency.
2012-07-11 Add a function queryValidPaths()Eelco Dolstra8-3/+49
queryValidPaths() combines multiple calls to isValidPath() in one. This matters when using the Nix daemon because it reduces latency. For instance, on "nix-env -qas \*" it reduces execution time from 5.7s to 4.7s (which is indistinguishable from the non-daemon case).
