2018-02-08 | Add plugins to make Nix more extensible. | Shea Levy | 1 | -0/+27 | |
All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix supports. | |||||

2018-01-09 | nix.conf: builders-use-substitutes | Renzo Carbonara | 1 | -0/+14 | |
Fixes #937 | |||||
2018-01-04 | Rename "use-substitutes" to "substitute" | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
Commit c2154d4c8422ddc1c201d503bb52edff854af2ad renamed "build-use-substitutes" to "use-substitutes", but that broke "nix-copy-closure --use-substitutes". | |||||
2017-12-09 | Escape left angle brackets in XML documentation | Joe Hermaszewski | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2017-12-08 | nix-hash: Add sentence and example for nix-prefetch-url hash | Markus Hauck | 1 | -1/+12 | |
2017-11-21 | Add a warning about the 'trusted-users' option | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+6 | |
2017-11-20 | Document secret-key-files | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+16 | |
2017-11-20 | signed-binary-caches -> require-sigs | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+8 | |
Unlike signed-binary-caches (which could only be '*' or ''), require-sigs is a proper Boolean option. The default is true. | |||||
2017-11-20 | binary-cache-public-keys -> trusted-public-keys | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+5 | |
The name had become a misnomer since it's not only for substitution from binary caches, but when adding/copying any (non-content-addressed) path to a store. | |||||
2017-10-30 | Add option allowed-uris | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+17 | |
This allows network access in restricted eval mode. | |||||
2017-08-31 | Rename a few configuration options | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -35/+34 | |
In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are pointless. So now you can say nix build --no-sandbox instead of nix build --no-build-use-sandbox | |||||
2017-07-30 | replace "Mac OS X" with "macOS" | davidak | 1 | -1/+1 | |
except in older release notes where the name was actually Mac OS X. | |||||
2017-07-17 | Make the hashes mirrors used by builtins.fetchurl configurable | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+28 | |
In particular, this allows it to be disabled in our tests. | |||||
2017-07-10 | fix buggy nix-shell man page | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2017-07-07 | man page (nix-shell): Fix grouping of -p option | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -4/+4 | |
Not sure about the raw ellipsis. | |||||
2017-07-07 | man page (nix-prefetch-url): Add some missing options | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -2/+4 | |
2017-07-07 | man page (nix-instantiate): -E is optional | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2017-07-07 | man page (nix-instantiate): Add --json to synopsis, order variables | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -16/+17 | |
2017-07-07 | man page (nix-instantiate): Remove non-existent nix-build argument -r | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2017-07-07 | man pages: Consistently separate alternatives by / | Robert Vollmert | 2 | -12/+6 | |
2017-07-07 | man pages: Argument for --max-jobs | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2017-07-07 | man pages: Grouping for option alternatives | Robert Vollmert | 2 | -10/+28 | |
2017-07-06 | Fix nix-instantiate manpage indentation | Robert Vollmert | 1 | -1/+2 | |
The second command variant is now its own cmdsynopsis, which ensures it's not indented as was the case using sbrk. | |||||
2017-07-04 | Add allow-new-privileges option | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+17 | |
This allows builds to call setuid binaries. This was previously possible until we started using seccomp. Turns out that seccomp by default disallows processes from acquiring new privileges. Generally, any use of setuid binaries (except those created by the builder itself) is by definition impure, but some people were relying on this ability for certain tests. Example: $ nix build '(with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" {} "/run/wrappers/bin/ping -c 1 8.8.8.8; exit 1")' --no-allow-new-privileges builder for ‘/nix/store/j0nd8kv85hd6r4kxgnwzvr0k65ykf6fv-foo.drv’ failed with exit code 1; last 2 log lines: cannot raise the capability into the Ambient set : Operation not permitted $ nix build '(with import <nixpkgs> {}; runCommand "foo" {} "/run/wrappers/bin/ping -c 1 8.8.8.8; exit 1")' --allow-new-privileges builder for ‘/nix/store/j0nd8kv85hd6r4kxgnwzvr0k65ykf6fv-foo.drv’ failed with exit code 1; last 6 log lines: PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=46 time=15.2 ms Fixes #1429. | |||||
2017-05-03 | Merge pull request #1371 from regnat/doc_--xml_fix | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -10/+8 | |
fix the description of --xml and --json | |||||
2017-05-03 | doc: fix the description of --xml and --json | regnat | 1 | -10/+8 | |
Those options seem to only apply with --eval and not with --parse. | |||||
2017-05-01 | Remove $NIX_BUILD_HOOK and $NIX_CURRENT_LOAD | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -133/+0 | |
This is to simplify remote build configuration. These environment variables predate nix.conf. The build hook now has a sensible default (namely build-remote). The current load is kept in the Nix state directory now. | |||||
2017-04-24 | Merge pull request #1348 from armijnhemel/nix-env | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
better document --meta option for nix-env | |||||
2017-04-20 | Read per-user settings from ~/.config/nix/nix.conf | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -8/+28 | |
2017-04-20 | binary-caches-parallel-connections -> http-connections | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2017-04-20 | nix.conf man page: binary-caches -> substituters | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -21/+13 | |
2017-04-19 | document option | Armijn Hemel | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2017-04-13 | Convert Settings to the new config system | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -10/+0 | |
This makes all config options self-documenting. Unknown or unparseable config settings and --option flags now cause a warning. | |||||
2017-03-21 | Fix tests to reflect the signed-binary-caches default change | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+4 | |
2017-03-15 | Store: Add a method for getting build logs | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -20/+1 | |
This allows various Store implementations to provide different ways to get build logs. For example, BinaryCacheStore can get the build logs from the binary cache. Also, remove the log-servers option since we can use substituters for this. | |||||
2017-03-09 | nix -> Nix | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2017-03-08 | Add docs for allow-import-from-derivation | Shea Levy | 1 | -0/+10 | |
2017-02-28 | Support auto-configuration of build-max-jobs | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -5/+6 | |
"build-max-jobs" and the "-j" option can now be set to "auto" to use the number of CPUs in the system. (Unlike build-cores, it doesn't use 0 to imply auto-configuration, because a) magic values are a bad idea in general; b) 0 is a legitimate value used to disable local building.) Fixes #1198. | |||||
2017-02-16 | Tweak netrc docs | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+12 | |
2017-02-02 | Add netrc-file support | Renzo Carbonara | 1 | -0/+15 | |
2017-01-03 | Drop a few more references to all-packages.nix | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -13/+6 | |
And also don't refer to f-spot, which apparently no longer exists. Issue #1170. | |||||
2016-12-28 | Document the common --no-build-hook option | zimbatm | 1 | -0/+17 | |
2016-12-16 | manual: add NIX_CONF_DIR to conf-file section | Daiderd Jordan | 1 | -1/+2 | |
2016-10-31 | Support optional sandbox paths | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+6 | |
For example, you can now set build-sandbox-paths = /dev/nvidiactl? to specify that /dev/nvidiactl should only be mounted in the sandbox if it exists in the host filesystem. This is useful e.g. for EC2 images that should support both CUDA and non-CUDA instances. | |||||
2016-09-21 | Add sandbox-dev-shm-size option | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+13 | |
Fixes #1069. | |||||
2016-09-14 | Revive binary-caches-parallel-connections | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+3 | |
It's a slight misnomer now because it actually limits *all* downloads, not just binary cache lookups. Also add a "enable-http2" option to allow disabling use of HTTP/2 (enabled by default). |
