2018-02-08	Add plugins to make Nix more extensible.	Shea Levy	1	-0/+2
	All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix supports.
2018-01-16	Add pure evaluation mode	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	In this mode, the following restrictions apply: * The builtins currentTime, currentSystem and storePath throw an error. * $NIX_PATH and -I are ignored. * fetchGit and fetchMercurial require a revision hash. * fetchurl and fetchTarball require a sha256 attribute. * No file system access is allowed outside of the paths returned by fetch{Git,Mercurial,url,Tarball}. Thus 'nix build -f ./foo.nix' is not allowed. Thus, the evaluation result is completely reproducible from the command line arguments. E.g. nix build --pure-eval '( let nix = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; rev = "9c927de4b179a6dd210dd88d34bda8af4b575680"; }; nixpkgs = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; ref = "release-17.09"; rev = "66b4de79e3841530e6d9c6baf98702aa1f7124e4"; }; in (import (nix + "/release.nix") { inherit nix nixpkgs; }).build.x86_64-linux )' The goal is to enable completely reproducible and traceable evaluation. For example, a NixOS configuration could be fully described by a single Git commit hash. 'nixos-rebuild' would do something like nix build --pure-eval '( (import (fetchGit { url = file:///my-nixos-config; rev = "..."; })).system ') where the Git repository /my-nixos-config would use further fetchGit calls or Git externals to fetch Nixpkgs and whatever other dependencies it has. Either way, the commit hash would uniquely identify the NixOS configuration and allow it to reproduced.
2017-10-24	nix: Respect -I, --arg, --argstr	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+12
	Also, random cleanup to argument handling.
2017-07-30	Replace Unicode quotes in user-facing strings by ASCII	Jörg Thalheim	1	-2/+2
	Relevant RFC: NixOS/rfcs#4 $ ag -l \| xargs sed -i -e "/\"/s/’/'/g;/\"/s/‘/'/g"
2017-07-26	nix-build/nix-shell: Eliminate call to nix-instantiate / nix-store	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+2
	Note that this removes the need for a derivation symlink, so the --drv-path and --add-drv-link flags now do nothing.
2017-07-03	Replace a few bool flags with enums	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	Functions like copyClosure() had 3 bool arguments, which creates a severe risk of mixing up arguments. Also, implement copyClosure() using copyPaths().
2017-05-16	Improve progress indicator	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2016-11-26	Revert "Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)"	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2
	This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There really is no need for such a massive change...
2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux	1	-2/+2

2016-06-02	Allow setting the state directory as a store parameter	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+3
	E.g. "local?store=/tmp/store&state=/tmp/var".
2016-04-25	Improved logging abstraction	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the "pretty" log type.
2016-02-11	Move addPermRoot into Store	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+4

2016-02-04	StoreAPI -> Store	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Calling a class an API is a bit redundant...
2016-02-04	Eliminate the "store" global variable	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+6
	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.)
2015-10-29	int2String() -> std::to_string()	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2015-07-17	OCD: foreach -> C++11 ranged for	Eelco Dolstra	1	-8/+8

2015-05-06	nix-env/nix-instantiate/nix-build: Support URIs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+3
	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
2015-05-05	Allow URLs in the Nix search path	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+5
	E.g. to install "hello" from the latest Nixpkgs: $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A hello -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz Or to install a specific version of NixOS: $ nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz
2015-03-19	Fix Boehm API violation	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1
	We were calling GC_INIT() after doing an allocation (in the baseEnv construction), which is not allowed.
2014-12-12	Remove canary stuff	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+0

2014-09-22	Rename strictForceValue -> forceValueDeep	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2014-09-19	Store Attrs inside Bindings	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+1
	This prevents a double allocation per attribute set.
2014-09-17	Add some instrumentation for debugging GC leaks	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2014-08-20	Use proper quotes everywhere	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2014-08-13	Refactor option handling	Eelco Dolstra	1	-106/+96

2014-06-27	Style fix	Eelco Dolstra	1	-11/+8

2014-06-27	Add `--json` argument to `nix-instantiate`	Paul Colomiets	1	-6/+17

2014-05-26	Ensure that -I flags get included in nixPath	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+11
	Also fixes #261.
2014-05-13	nix-instantiate --eval: Apply auto-arguments if the result is a function	Eelco Dolstra	1	-5/+10
	Fixes #254.
2014-02-19	nix-instantiate: Allow --dry-run as a synonym for --readonly-mode	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	--dry-run is more consistent with nix-env and nix-store.
2014-02-19	nix-instantiate: Rename --eval-only to --eval, --parse-only to --parse	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2014-02-19	nix-instantiate: Add a flag --expr / -E to read expressions from the command ↵	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+7
	line This is basically a shortcut for ‘echo 'expr...' \| nix-instantiate -’. Also supported by nix-build and nix-shell.
2014-02-07	nix-instantiate --eval-only --read-write-mode: Don't depend on ordering	Shea Levy	1	-9/+8
	Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2014-02-07	Rename --no-readonly-mode --read-write-mode	Shea Levy	1	-1/+1
	Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2014-02-07	nix-instantiate: Add a --no-readonly-mode flag	Shea Levy	1	-0/+3
	This allows running nix-instantiate --eval-only without performing the evaluation in readonly mode, letting features like import from derivation and automatic substitution of builtins.storePath paths work. Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2014-02-01	Remove Automakefiles	Eelco Dolstra	1	-10/+0

2014-02-01	Update Makefile variable names	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2014-01-30	Rename Makefile -> local.mk	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+0

2014-01-09	Update Makefiles	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2013-11-25	Rename Makefile.new -> Makefile	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+0

2013-11-22	Rename $(here) to $(d) for brevity, and remove trailing slash	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2013-11-22	New non-recursive, plain Make-based build system	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7

2013-11-19	Generalise meta attributes	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2013-09-03	Work on Values instead of Exprs	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+4
	This prevents some duplicate evaluation in nix-env and nix-instantiate. Also, when traversing ~/.nix-defexpr, only read regular files with the extension .nix. Previously it was reading files like .../channels/binary-caches/<name>. The only reason this didn't cause problems is pure luck (namely, <name> shadows an actual Nix expression, the binary-caches files happen to be syntactically valid Nix expressions, and we iterate over the directory contents in just the right order).
2013-09-03	Reformat	Eelco Dolstra	1	-33/+35

2013-09-03	Get rid of the parse tree cache	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Since we already cache files in normal form (fileEvalCache), caching parse trees is redundant. Note that getting rid of this cache doesn't actually save much memory at the moment, because parse trees are currently not freed / GC'ed.
2012-11-26	nix-instantiate: Fix read-only evaluation	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+2

2012-11-26	Make "nix-build -A <derivation>.<output>" do the right thing	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+15
	For example, given a derivation with outputs "out", "man" and "bin": $ nix-build -A pkg produces ./result pointing to the "out" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.man produces ./result-man pointing to the "man" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.all produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin; $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2 produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.
2012-10-04	getDerivation(): Don't always quietly ignore assertion failure	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1
	Ignoring assertion failures makes some sense for nix-env -qa, but not for nix-instantiate/nix-build or hydra-eval-jobs.
2012-10-03	When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual page	Eelco Dolstra	3	-39/+2
	I.e. do what git does. I'm too lazy to keep the builtin help text up to date :-) Also add ‘--help’ to various commands that lacked it (e.g. nix-collect-garbage).
