2006-10-03 * toXML: propagate the context to allow derivations to be used in theEelco Dolstra4-10/+21
argument.
2006-10-03 * Document the built-in functions.Eelco Dolstra3-31/+502
2006-10-03 * toFile: added an additional argument to specify the store pathEelco Dolstra4-5/+41
suffix, e.g., `builtins.toFile "builder.sh" "..."'. * toFile: handle references to other files correctly.
2006-10-02 * Documented nix-hash.Eelco Dolstra5-4/+161
2006-10-02 * Manual.Eelco Dolstra2-44/+59
2006-10-02 * Document the new let.Eelco Dolstra2-42/+29
2006-10-02 * Finally, a real "let" syntax: `let x = ...; ... z = ...; in ...'.Eelco Dolstra5-3/+21
2006-10-02 * Hack for Bison 2.3 compatability.Eelco Dolstra2-2/+14
2006-10-02 * Manual updates (especially how nix-build makes testing packages muchEelco Dolstra5-81/+120
easier; no longer need a helper expression).
2006-10-02 * Manual.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+17
2006-09-29 * One-click installs.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+31
2006-09-29 * Document nix-install-package and the nixpkg file format.Eelco Dolstra5-31/+237
2006-09-29 * Manual.Eelco Dolstra4-6/+70
2006-09-29 * Manual updates, some style improvements.Eelco Dolstra6-52/+74
2006-09-28 * Manual updates.Eelco Dolstra6-11/+110
* Documented nix-{pack,unpack}-closure.
2006-09-27 * Fix setuid builds.Eelco Dolstra2-9/+9
2006-09-27 * Release notes.Eelco Dolstra1-84/+131
2006-09-27 * Release notes.Eelco Dolstra2-42/+100
2006-09-26 * Release notes.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+2
2006-09-25 * Use "propagated-user-env-packages", not "propagated-build-inputs"Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
for packages that should be propagated to the user environment.
2006-09-25 * Propagated packages now have lower priority; they are symlinkedEelco Dolstra1-14/+39
*after* the packages that have been explicitly installed, and collisions are ignored.
2006-09-25 * Quick hack to let nix-install-package set the package name properlyEelco Dolstra2-2/+12
(e.g., "java-front-0.9pre15899" instead of "java-front"; particularly important when doing upgrades later on).
2006-09-25 * In `nix-channel --update', skip manifests that assume a Nix store atEelco Dolstra2-2/+21
a different location than the user's. This makes channels usable as a source deployment mechanism for people who install Nix under non-standard prefixes. (NIX-57)
2006-09-25 * Clean up calls to system().Eelco Dolstra8-26/+26
2006-09-25 * Use builtins.toPath.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2006-09-24 * The result of a concatenation with a derivation on the left-handEelco Dolstra2-4/+13
side should be a path, I guess. * Handle paths that are in the store but not direct children of the store directory. * Ugh, hack to prevent double context wrapping.
2006-09-24 * Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.Eelco Dolstra3-7/+30
* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24 * Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.Eelco Dolstra4-6/+22
2006-09-24 * lessThan primitive for integer comparison.Eelco Dolstra2-1/+13
2006-09-22 * Builtin function `add' to add integers.Eelco Dolstra11-26/+68
* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix.
2006-09-22 * Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+29
With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).
2006-09-22 * Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail ofEelco Dolstra3-0/+39
list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22 * New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check forEelco Dolstra3-0/+27
attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)
2006-09-22 * Use a bounded amount of memory in scanForReferences() by not readingEelco Dolstra1-9/+26
regular files into memory all at once.
2006-09-22 * Supply the 64-bit ATerm patch, but don't apply it (since thatEelco Dolstra2-1/+664
requires rerunning Autoconf/Automake). Interested users should do that themselves.
2006-09-22 * Don't allocate the buffer twice.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+9
2006-09-22 * Don't allocate more than SIZE_MAX bytes.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+7
2006-09-22 * Build with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to support files >= 2^31 bytesEelco Dolstra1-0/+5
(NIX-22).
2006-09-21 * GC options in nix-store --help (NIX-15).Eelco Dolstra1-1/+10
2006-09-21 * `nix-install-package --url': install from a URL (NIX-12).Eelco Dolstra10-37/+152
* `nix-install-package --help' (NIX-9). * `nix-install-package --non-interactive': don't prompt or pause. * Tests for nix-install-package. * Security fixes: filter the values obtained from the nixpkg.
2006-09-21 * Fix comment.Eelco Dolstra1-3/+1
2006-09-21 * Try konsole and gnome-terminal in addition to xterm.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+3
2006-09-20 * Shut up a warning.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-09-20 * Absolute path to rm (NIX-51).Eelco Dolstra2-5/+5
* Don't hardcore /nix/bin and /nix/store.
2006-09-20 * Print a better error message for wrong hashes (NIX-49).Eelco Dolstra3-4/+16
2006-09-20 * Check for patch (NIX-59).Eelco Dolstra2-2/+3
2006-09-20 * Hide warnings about a missing "lsof" (NIX-54).Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-09-20 * Use paths, not strings, when calling the function that generatesEelco Dolstra1-10/+17
NARs. Fixes the impurity of nix-push (NIX-21). * Better help.
2006-09-19 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+1
2006-09-19 * Doh! Of course we have to take execute permission into account.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+9
* Restore the mtime on modified directories.
