2014-02-01 Give a friendly error message if the DB directory is not writableEelco Dolstra1-2/+6
Previously we would say "error: setting synchronous mode: unable to open database file" which isn't very helpful.

Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2014-01-14 Allow "bare" dynamic attrsShea Levy2-0/+3
Now, in addition to a."${b}".c, you can write a.${b}.c (applicable wherever dynamic attributes are valid). Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>

2014-01-08 Fix checking of NAR hashesEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
*headdesk* *headdesk* *headdesk* So since commit 22144afa8d9f8968da351618a1347072a93bd8aa, Nix hasn't actually checked whether the content of a downloaded NAR matches the hash specified in the manifest / NAR info file. Urghhh...

2013-12-31 Don't use any syntactic sugar for dynamic attrsShea Levy4-128/+68
This doesn't change any functionality but moves some behavior out of the parser and into the evaluator in order to simplify the code. Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2013-12-31 Fold dynamic binds handling into addAttrShea Levy1-55/+35
Since addAttr has to iterate through the AttrPath we pass it, it makes more sense to just iterate through the AttrNames in addAttr instead. As an added bonus, this allows attrsets where two dynamic attribute paths have the same static leading part (see added test case for an example that failed previously).

2013-12-31 Dynamic attrsShea Levy4-23/+238
This adds new syntax for attribute names: * attrs."${name}" => getAttr name attrs * attrs ? "${name}" => isAttrs attrs && hasAttr attrs name * attrs."${name}" or def => if attrs ? "${name}" then attrs."${name}" else def * { "${name}" = value; } => listToAttrs [{ inherit name value; }] Of course, it's a bit more complicated than that. The attribute chains can be arbitrarily long and contain combinations of static and dynamic parts (e.g. attrs."${foo}".bar."${baz}" or qux), which is relatively straightforward for the getAttrs/hasAttrs cases but is more complex for the listToAttrs case due to rules about duplicate attribute definitions. For attribute sets with dynamic attribute names, duplicate static attributes are detected at parse time while duplicate dynamic attributes are detected when the attribute set is forced. So, for example, { a = null; a.b = null; "${"c"}" = true; } will be a parse-time error, while { a = {}; "${"a"}".b = null; c = true; } will be an eval-time error (technically that case could theoretically be detected at parse time, but the general case would require full evaluation). Moreover, duplicate dynamic attributes are not allowed even in cases where they would be with static attributes ({ a.b.d = true; a.b.c = false; } is legal, but { a."${"b"}".d = true; a."${"b"}".c = false; } is not). This restriction might be relaxed in the future in cases where the static variant would not be an error, but it is not obvious that that is desirable. Finally, recursive attribute sets with dynamic attributes have the static attributes in scope but not the dynamic ones. So rec { a = true; "${"b"}" = a; } is equivalent to { a = true; b = true; } but rec { "${"a"}" = true; b = a; } would be an error or use a from the surrounding scope if it exists. Note that the getAttr, getAttr or default, and hasAttr are all implemented purely in the parser as syntactic sugar, while attribute sets with dynamic attribute names required changes to the AST to be implemented cleanly. This is an alternative solution to and closes #167 Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
2013-12-31 Add the ExprBuiltin Expr type to the ASTShea Levy4-9/+36
Certain desugaring schemes may require the parser to use some builtin function to do some of the work (e.g. currently `throw` is used to lazily cause an error if a `<>`-style path is not in the search path) Unfortunately, these names are not reserved keywords, so an expression that uses such a syntactic sugar will not see the expected behavior (see tests/lang/eval-okay-redefine-builtin.nix for an example). This adds the ExprBuiltin AST type, which when evaluated uses the value from the rootmost variable scope (which of course is initialized internally and can't shadow any of the builtins).

Fixes #181.
2013-12-10 Bump language version for new storePath featureShea Levy1-1/+1
This will allow e.g. channel expressions to use builtins.storePath IFF it is safe to do so without knowing if the path is valid yet. Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>

2013-12-10 Garbage collector: Release locks on temporary root filesEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
This allows processes waiting for such locks to proceed during the trash deletion phase of the garbage collector.

2013-11-23 Use libnix as a prefix for all Nix librariesEelco Dolstra5-0/+10
In particular "libutil" was always a problem because it collides with Glibc's libutil. Even if we install into $(libdir)/nix, the linker sometimes got confused (e.g. if a program links against libstore but not libutil, then ld would report undefined symbols in libstore because it was looking at Glibc's libutil).
2013-11-23 Add Makefile for nix-log2xmlEelco Dolstra1-0/+5
2013-11-24 Disallow undefined symbols in dynamic libraries by defaultEelco Dolstra1-0/+2
This encourages that each library declares its own dependencies properly.
2013-11-23 Drop the dependency on libgc in libmainEelco Dolstra4-22/+22
Instead, libexpr now depends on libgc. This means commands like nix-store that don't do any evaluation no longer require libgc.
