2007-01-14 | * Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75) | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -9/+3 | |
2007-01-13 | * Allow multiple --attr / -A arguments in nix-build / nix-instantiate | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -15/+20 | |
(NIX-74). | |||||
2007-01-13 | * Canonicalise ASTs in `nix-instantiate --eval': remove position | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
info, sort attribute sets. | |||||
2006-12-07 | * Doh! | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-12-07 | * Rename all those main.cc files. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+1 | |
2006-12-05 | * Allow unprivileged users to run the garbage collector and to do | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+0 | |
`nix-store --delete'. But unprivileged users are not allowed to ignore liveness. * `nix-store --delete --ignore-liveness': ignore the runtime roots as well. | |||||
2006-11-30 | * Put building in the store API. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+0 | |
2006-11-30 | * Refactoring. There is now an abstract interface class StoreAPI | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
containing functions that operate on the Nix store. One implementation is LocalStore, which operates on the Nix store directly. The next step, to enable secure multi-user Nix, is to create a different implementation RemoteStore that talks to a privileged daemon process that uses LocalStore to perform the actual operations. | |||||
2006-10-16 | * Big cleanup of the semantics of paths, strings, contexts, string | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
concatenation and string coercion. This was a big mess (see e.g. NIX-67). Contexts are now folded into strings, so that they don't cause evaluation errors when they're not expected. The semantics of paths has been clarified (see nixexpr-ast.def). toString() and coerceToString() have been merged. Semantic change: paths are now copied to the store when they're in a concatenation (and in most other situations - that's the formalisation of the meaning of a path). So "foo " + ./bla evaluates to "foo /nix/store/hash...-bla", not "foo /path/to/current-dir/bla". This prevents accidental impurities, and is more consistent with the treatment of derivation outputs, e.g., `"foo " + bla' where `bla' is a derivation. (Here `bla' would be replaced by the output path of `bla'.) | |||||
2006-10-03 | * toXML: propagate the context to allow derivations to be used in the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+3 | |
argument. | |||||
2006-09-08 | * Remove debug message. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+0 | |
2006-09-04 | * Use a proper namespace. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+10 | |
* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++. | |||||
2006-08-24 | * Refactoring. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -86/+4 | |
2006-08-24 | * Strict evaluation and XML printing of lists. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+7 | |
2006-08-24 | * Refactoring: move strictEval to libexpr. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -44/+1 | |
2006-08-23 | * Pass the autoArgs to findAlongAttrPath so that "nix-instantiate | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+6 | |
foo.nix -A attr --arg name value" will work if (name, value) is needed in the evaluation leading up to "attr". | |||||
2006-08-17 | * Print attributes in sorted order, rather than the arbitrary order | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -9/+22 | |
produced by ATermMap. Necessary for testing. * `--strict' should also work on stdin. | |||||
2006-08-16 | * More XML output. `--strict' to strictly evaluate attribute sets and | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -46/+91 | |
so on. * Removed `--print-args', it's subsumed by `--eval-only --xml'. | |||||
2006-08-16 | * `nix-instantiate --{eval|parse}-only --xml': print an XML | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+59 | |
representation instead of an ATerm. * Indent XML output. | |||||
2006-08-14 | * Put the value in an attribute. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+3 | |
2006-08-03 | * `nix-instantiate --print-args': produce XML output so that the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+12 | |
result can be used more easily by scripts. | |||||
2006-07-28 | * `nix-instantiate ... --arg NAME VALUE': allow arguments to be passed | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -11/+21 | |
to functions from the command line. * nix-build: started removing backticks. | |||||
2006-07-28 | * `nix-instantiate --print-args': print out the valid values for | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+11 | |
functions arguments that have a domain. | |||||
2006-07-26 | * Refactoring: get the selection path stuff out of getDerivations() | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -12/+13 | |
and put it into a separate function findAlongAttrPath(). | |||||
2006-07-25 | * `nix-instantiate --print-args' prints out the arguments of a | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -4/+25 | |
top-level function. | |||||
2006-05-12 | * Support for srcdir != builddir (NIX-41). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+3 | |
2006-03-06 | * Regularise help text a bit. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-02-10 | * Enable the --attr in nix-build as well (and add -A as an alias). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
Example: $ nix-build ./all-packages.nix -A xlibs.libX11 So finally it's easy to perform a test build of a Nix expression! | |||||
2006-02-10 | * In nix-instantiate, allow us to specify a "path" to the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+11 | |
derivation(s) we're interested, e.g., $ nix-instantiate ./all-packages.nix --attr xlibs.libX11 List elements can also be selected: $ nix-instantiate ./build-for-release.nix --attr 0.subversion This allows a non-ambiguous specification of a derivation. Of course, this should also be added to nix-env and nix-build. | |||||
2006-02-10 | * Make --parse-only work when *not* reading from stdin. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+4 | |
2006-02-10 | * Cleanup: use the code shared with nix-env. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -64/+15 | |
2005-07-22 | * Build dynamic libraries. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+3 | |
2005-07-12 | * In nix-instantiate, at top-level, call functions that have arguments | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+17 | |
with default values automatically. I.e., e -> e {}. This feature makes convenience expressions such as pkgs/system/i686-linux.nix in Nixpkgs obsolete, since we can just do $ nix-instantiate ./pkgs/system/all-packages.nix since all-packages.nix takes a single argument (system) that has a default value (__thisSystem). | |||||
2005-02-01 | * nix-build: use an indirection scheme to make it easier for users to | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+6 | |
get rid of GC roots. Nix-build places a symlink `result' in the current directory. Previously, removing that symlink would not remove the store path being linked to as a GC root. Now, the GC root created by nix-build is actually a symlink in `/nix/var/nix/gcroots/auto' to `result'. So if that symlink is removed the GC root automatically becomes invalid (since it can no longer be resolved). The root itself is not automatically removed - the garbage collector should delete dangling roots. | |||||
2005-02-01 | * nix-store, nix-instantiate: added an option `--add-root' to | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -8/+30 | |
immediately add the result as a permanent GC root. This is the only way to prevent a race with the garbage collector. For instance, the old style ln -s $(nix-store -r $(nix-instantiate foo.nix)) \ /nix/var/nix/gcroots/result has two time windows in which the garbage collector can interfere (by GC'ing the derivation and the output, respectively). On the other hand, nix-store --add-root /nix/var/nix/gcroots/result -r \ $(nix-instantiate --add-root /nix/var/nix/gcroots/drv \ foo.nix) is safe. * nix-build: use `--add-root' to prevent GC races. | |||||
2005-01-19 | * Renamed `normalise.cc' -> `build.cc', `storeexprs.cc' -> | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
`derivations.cc', etc. * Store the SHA-256 content hash of store paths in the database after they have been built/added. This is so that we can check whether the store has been messed with (a la `rpm --verify'). * When registering path validity, verify that the closure property holds. | |||||
2004-11-12 | * Document --eval-only and --parse-only options in nix-instantiate. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+3 | |
2004-10-29 | * Drop ATmake / ATMatcher also in handling store expressions. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+1 | |
