2012-10-02 | Add operation ‘nix-store --repair-path’ | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+6 | |
This operation allows fixing corrupted or accidentally deleted store paths by redownloading them using substituters, if available. Since the corrupted path cannot be replaced atomically, there is a very small time window (one system call) during which neither the old (corrupted) nor the new (repaired) contents are available. So repairing should be used with some care on critical packages like Glibc. | |||||
2012-09-27 | Allow dashes in identifiers | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+5 | |
In Nixpkgs, the attribute in all-packages.nix corresponding to a package is usually equal to the package name. However, this doesn't work if the package contains a dash, which is fairly common. The convention is to replace the dash with an underscore (e.g. "dbus-lib" becomes "dbus_glib"), but that's annoying. So now dashes are valid in variable / attribute names, allowing you to write: dbus-glib = callPackage ../development/libraries/dbus-glib { }; and buildInputs = [ dbus-glib ]; Since we don't have a negation or subtraction operation in Nix, this is unambiguous. | |||||

2012-05-09 | Update the release notes | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -12/+82 | |
2012-01-17 | * Added a command ‘nix-store --print-env $drvpath’ that prints out the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
environment of the given derivation in a format that can be sourced by the shell, e.g. $ eval "$(nix-store --print-env $(nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixpkgs -A pkg))" $ NIX_BUILD_TOP=/tmp $ source $stdenv/setup This is especially useful to reproduce the environment used to build a package outside of its builder for development purposes. TODO: add a nix-build option to do the above and fetch the dependencies of the derivation as well. | |||||
2011-09-06 | * Added a command ‘nix-store --verify-paths PATHS’ to check whether | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
the contents of any of the given store paths have been modified. E.g. $ nix-store --verify-path $(nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system) path `/nix/store/m2smyiwbxidlprfxfz4rjlvz2c3mg58y-etc' was modified! expected hash `fc87e271c5fdf179b47939b08ad13440493805584b35e3014109d04d8436e7b8', got `20f1a47281b3c0cbe299ce47ad5ca7340b20ab34246426915fce0ee9116483aa' All paths are checked; the exit code is 1 if any path has been modified, 0 otherwise. | |||||
2011-08-06 | * Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown. | |||||
2011-07-13 | * Allow a default value in attribute selection by writing | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
x.y.z or default (as originally proposed in https://mail.cs.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2009-September/002989.html). For instance, an expression like stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args can now be written as args.features.ckSched or false | |||||

2008-07-11 | * Generalised the dependencyClosure primop to builtins.genericClosure, | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+7 | |
which is hopefully more useful. * New primops: length, mul, div. | |||||
2008-07-01 | * Export the nix-env derivation name parsing and version comparison | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+6 | |
logic through the `parseDrvName' and `compareVersions' primops. This will allow expressions to easily check whether some dependency is a specific needed version or falls in some version range. See tests/lang/eval-okay-versions.nix for examples. | |||||
