| 2003-08-15 | * Argument support in Fix. Arguments can be passed through the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -20/+43 | |
| builder using the `args' binding: ("args", ["bla", True, IncludeFix("aterm/aterm.fix")]) Note that packages can also be declared as inputs by specifying them in the argument list. | |||||
| 2003-08-15 | * Derivation expressions now can specify arguments to be passed to the | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -20/+56 | |
| builder. Note that this unfortunately causes all Fix-computed hashes to change. | |||||
| 2003-08-15 | * Fix can now read expressions from stdin (by saying `fix -'). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+17 | |
| 2003-08-14 | * Detect infinite loops using blackholing. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+13 | |
| 2003-08-14 | * Function() takes a list of formals. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+14 | |
| 2003-08-14 | * Lam -> Function. Doh! | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| 2003-08-08 | * deletePath(): some operating systems (e.g., Mac OS X) don't like it | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+8 | |
| when we delete entries from a directory while we are reading it. So read the directory into memory, then delete its contents. | |||||
| 2003-08-06 | * Allow locks on paths to be acquired recursively (that is, if the | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+4 | |
| process is already holding a lock on a path, it may acquire the lock again without blocking or failing). (This might be dangerous, not sure). Necessary for fast builds to work. | |||||
| 2003-08-06 | * A flag `--flat' to just compute the MD5 checksum of the contents of | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+7 | |
| a regular file. I.e., `nix-hash --flat' is equivalent to the coreutils `md5sum' command (which doesn't exist on all systems). | |||||
| 2003-08-06 | * App -> Call. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+8 | |
| * Allow booleans in package environment bindings (True maps to "1", False maps to ""). | |||||
| 2003-08-05 | * Conditionals. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+33 | |
| 2003-08-05 | * Cache result of fstatePaths(). TODO: do this in fstore.cc. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+17 | |
| 2003-08-05 | * Allow the top-level expression to be a list of expressions that | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -5/+19 | |
| normalise to Nix expression. | |||||
| 2003-08-05 | * Delete obstructed paths prior to building. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+12 | |
| 2003-08-04 | * Path locking in addToStore() and expandPath(). | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -1/+16 | |
| 2003-08-01 | * In normaliseFState(), wrap registration of the output paths and the | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -28/+44 | |
| normal form in a single transaction to ensure that if we crash, either everything is registered or nothing is. This is for recoverability: unregistered paths in the store can be deleted arbitrarily, while registered paths can only be deleted by running the garbage collector. | |||||
| 2003-08-01 | * Defensive programming against POSIX locking idiocy. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -25/+18 | |
| * Simplified realiseSlice(). | |||||
| 2003-08-01 | * normaliseFState() now locks all output paths prior to building, thus | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -30/+151 | |
| ensuring that simultaneous invocations of Nix don't clobber each other's builds. * Fixed a bug in `make install'. | |||||
| 2003-08-01 | * Don't use substitutes in addToStore(). | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -15/+21 | |
| 2003-07-31 | * Put the database verifier in a transaction. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -17/+23 | |
| 2003-07-31 | * Enclose most operations that update the database in transactions. | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -96/+145 | |
| * Open all database tables (Db objects) at initialisation time, not every time they are used. This is necessary because tables have to outlive all transactions that refer to them. | |||||
| 2003-07-31 | * Use a more reasonable log file size (256 KB instead of 10 MB). | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+6 | |
| * Checkpoint on exit. | |||||
| 2003-07-31 | * Started using Berkeley DB environments. This is necessary for | Eelco Dolstra | 11 | -100/+249 | |
| transaction support (but we don't actually use transactions yet). | |||||
| 2003-07-31 | * Set execute bit. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+0 | |
| 2003-07-30 | * Don't make the builder executable. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+0 | |
| 2003-07-29 | * Get garbage collection and cache population to work *properly*. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -12/+36 | |
| Renamed `fstateRefs' to `fstateRequisites'. The semantics of this function is that it returns a list of all paths necessary to realise a given expression. For a derive expression, this is the union of requisites of the inputs; for a slice expression, it is the path of each element in the slice. Also included are the paths of the expressions themselves. Optionally, one can also include the requisites of successor expressions (to recycle intermediate results). * `nix-switch' now distinguishes between an expression and its normal form. Usually, only the normal form is registered as a root of the garbage collector. With the `--source-root' flag, it will also register the original expression as a root. * `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--keep-successors' which causes successors not to be included in the list of garbage paths. * `nix-collect-garbage' now has a flag `--invert' which will print all paths that should *not* be garbage collected. | |||||
| 2003-07-29 | * Nicer dot graphs. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+7 | |
| 2003-07-29 | * `fstateRefs' now works on derive expressions as well. TODO: make | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -14/+40 | |
| this more efficient. * A flag `-n' in 'nix --query' to normalise the argument. Default is not to normalise. | |||||
| 2003-07-29 | * Let `nix --install' print out the id of the normal form. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -34/+35 | |
| * Some minor refactoring. | |||||
| 2003-07-28 | * `nix --help'. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -37/+116 | |
| * `nix --query --graph' to print a dot dependency graph of derive expressions. | |||||
| 2003-07-24 | * Fix message. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+2 | |
| 2003-07-24 | * The `-v' flag no longer takes an argument; it should be repeated | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -38/+29 | |
| instead (e.g., `-vvvv' for lots of output). Default is to only print error messages. | |||||
| 2003-07-24 | * Do sync the database, since not doing so caused database changes not | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| to reach the disk at all. Looks like a bug. | |||||
| 2003-07-24 | * Debug levels. Use `--verbose / -v LEVEL' to display only messages | Eelco Dolstra | 8 | -25/+68 | |
| up to the given verbosity levels. These currently are: lvlError = 0, lvlNormal = 5, lvlDebug = 10, lvlDebugMore = 15 although only lvlError and lvlDebug are actually used right now. | |||||
| 2003-07-24 | * Don't sync the database on close. This was killing performance. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| (Of course, the real problem is that we open the database for *every* operation; we should only open it once. And we should use transactions.) | |||||
| 2003-07-23 | * Incorporated Berkeley DB and ATerm into the source tree. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+6 | |
| * `make dist'. | |||||
| 2003-07-22 | * libdb_cxx-4 -> libdb_cxx | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -4/+4 | |
| 2003-07-22 | * Substitutes now should produce a path with the same id as they are | Eelco Dolstra | 6 | -46/+72 | |
| substituting for (obvious, really). * For greater efficiency, nix-pull/unnar will place the output in a path that is probably the same as what is actually needed, thus preventing a path copy. * Even if a output id is given in a Fix package expression, ensure that the resulting Nix derive expression has a different id. This is because Nix expressions that are semantically equivalent (i.e., build the same result) might be different w.r.t. efficiency or divergence. It is absolutely vital for the substitute mechanism that such expressions are not used interchangeably. | |||||
| 2003-07-22 | * `nix --query --expansion' (`-qe') to get any path with content | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -3/+13 | |
| corresponding to the given id. | |||||
| 2003-07-21 | * In `--query --generators', print out paths, not ids. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| (There should really be a switch for this). | |||||
| 2003-07-21 | * Check for errors. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| 2003-07-21 | * Canonicalise path. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
| 2003-07-21 | * Allow the output/expression id to be forced to a certain | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -12/+19 | |
| value; this potentially dangerous feature enables better sharing for those paths for which the content is known in advance (e.g., because a content hash is given). * Fast builds: if we can expand all output paths of a derive expression, we don't have to build. | |||||
| 2003-07-21 | * Changes to the command line syntax of Nix. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -78/+117 | |
| * A function to find all Nix expressions whose output ids are completely contained in some set. Useful for uploading relevant Nix expressions to a shared cache. | |||||
| 2003-07-21 | * Memoize the evaluation of Fix expressions to speed up computation. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -25/+47 | |
| 2003-07-20 | * Argh, another short-write problem. Added wrappers around | Eelco Dolstra | 8 | -36/+43 | |
| read()/write() to fix this once and for all. | |||||
| 2003-07-20 | * Remove accidentally added file. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+0 | |
| 2003-07-20 | * Refactorings. | Eelco Dolstra | 13 | -587/+609 | |
| 2003-07-17 | * For debugging: `nix --verify' to check the consistency of the | Eelco Dolstra | 7 | -14/+139 | |
| database and store. | |||||
| 2003-07-17 | * Preserve the executable bit. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+13 | |
