2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux	1	-2/+2

2016-09-14	Enable HTTP/2 support	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	The binary cache store can now use HTTP/2 to do lookups. This is much more efficient than HTTP/1.1 due to multiplexing: we can issue many requests in parallel over a single TCP connection. Thus it's no longer necessary to use a bunch of concurrent TCP connections (25 by default). For example, downloading 802 .narinfo files from https://cache.nixos.org/, using a single TCP connection, takes 11.8s with HTTP/1.1, but only 0.61s with HTTP/2. This did require a fairly substantial rewrite of the Downloader class to use the curl multi interface, because otherwise curl wouldn't be able to do multiplexing for us. As a bonus, we get connection reuse even with HTTP/1.1. All downloads are now handled by a single worker thread. Clients call Downloader::enqueueDownload() to tell the worker thread to start the download, getting a std::future to the result.
2016-02-29	Add an HTTP binary cache store	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Allowing stuff like NIX_REMOTE=https://cache.nixos.org nix-store -qR /nix/store/x1p1gl3a4kkz5ci0nfbayjqlqmczp1kq-geeqie-1.1 or NIX_REMOTE=https://cache.nixos.org nix-store --export /nix/store/x1p1gl3a4kkz5ci0nfbayjqlqmczp1kq-geeqie-1.1 \| nix-store --import
2016-02-04	Eliminate the "store" global variable	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation. Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a "T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via std::bind.)
2015-05-06	nix-env/nix-instantiate/nix-build: Support URIs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+5
	For instance, you can install Firefox from a specific Nixpkgs revision like this: $ nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz -iA firefox Or build a package from the latest nixpkgs-unstable channel: $ nix-build https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz -A hello
2014-09-19	Store Attrs inside Bindings	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+6
	This prevents a double allocation per attribute set.
2014-08-20	Use proper quotes everywhere	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2014-08-13	Refactor option handling	Eelco Dolstra	1	-20/+25

2014-05-26	Make the Nix search path declarative	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+1
	Nix search path lookups like <nixpkgs> are now desugared to ‘findFile nixPath <nixpkgs>’, where ‘findFile’ is a new primop. Thus you can override the search path simply by saying let nixPath = [ { prefix = "nixpkgs"; path = "/my-nixpkgs"; } ]; in ... <nixpkgs> ... In conjunction with ‘scopedImport’ (commit c273c15cb13bb86420dda1e5341a4e19517532b5), the Nix search path can be propagated across imports, e.g. let overrides = { nixPath = [ ... ] ++ builtins.nixPath; import = fn: scopedImport overrides fn; scopedImport = attrs: fn: scopedImport (overrides // attrs) fn; builtins = builtins // overrides; }; in scopedImport overrides ./nixos
2014-05-26	Ensure that -I flags get included in nixPath	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	Also fixes #261.
2014-02-26	Warn about missing -I paths	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	Fixes #121. Note that we don't warn about missing $NIX_PATH entries because it's intended that some may be missing (cf. the default $NIX_PATH on NixOS, which includes paths like /etc/nixos/nixpkgs for backward compatibility).
2012-02-09	Fix error message	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+4
	This fixes the error message error: file `' was not found in the Nix search path (add it using $NIX_PATH or -I)
2011-12-01	* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-build	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+11
	and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-08-06	* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+11
	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.
2011-08-06	* Refactoring: move parseExprFromFile() and parseExprFromString() into	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+1
	the EvalState class.
2010-10-24	* Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+5
	* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST. * Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.
2010-10-22	* Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+4
	a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
2010-05-18	* The << operator on values should be const.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2010-05-07	* Keep track of the source positions of attributes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2010-04-13	* Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute names	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	efficiently. The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently using a pointer equality test.
2010-04-12	* Don't use ATerms for the abstract syntax trees anymore. Not	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	finished yet.
2010-04-07	* Update autoCallFunction() and findAlongAttrPath().	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+8

2007-01-14	* Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75)	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+32
