2007-01-29 New primitives:Eelco Dolstra6-4/+41
* `sub' to subtract two numbers. * `stringLength' to get the length of a string. * `substring' to get a substring of a string. These should be enough to allow most string operations to be expressed.
2007-01-15 * builtins.filterSource: pass the type of the file ("regular",Eelco Dolstra2-1/+5
"directory", "symlink") as the second argument to the filter predicate.
2007-01-14 * Don't forget the .flags files.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2007-01-14 * Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75)Eelco Dolstra4-1/+22
2007-01-13 * Canonicalise ASTs in `nix-instantiate --eval': remove positionEelco Dolstra4-4/+4
info, sort attribute sets.
2006-12-12 * New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter filesEelco Dolstra3-1/+23
from a source directory. All files for which a predicate function returns true are copied to the store. Typical example is to leave out the .svn directory: stdenv.mkDerivation { ... src = builtins.filterSource (path: baseNameOf (toString path) != ".svn") ./source-dir; # as opposed to # src = ./source-dir; } This is important because the .svn directory influences the hash in a rather unpredictable and variable way.
2006-12-12 * New built-in function `builtins.attrNames' that returns theEelco Dolstra2-0/+12
names of the attributes in an attribute set.
2006-12-02 * Clear NIX_REMOTE in the tests.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+2
2006-10-19 * Checks for allowedReferences and some other features.Eelco Dolstra4-2/+100
* Use nix-build in a test.
2006-10-17 * Another test.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-10-17 * Fix the tests wrt the AST changes, i.e., Str(s) -> Str(s, []), andEelco Dolstra19-22/+22
the semantic changes.
2006-10-11 * Removed URIs from the evaluator (NIX-66). They are now just anotherEelco Dolstra3-3/+3
kind of notation for strings.
2006-10-03 * toFile: added an additional argument to specify the store pathEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
suffix, e.g., `builtins.toFile "builder.sh" "..."'. * toFile: handle references to other files correctly.
2006-10-02 * Finally, a real "let" syntax: `let x = ...; ... z = ...; in ...'.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+15
2006-09-24 * Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+4
* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24 * Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+4
2006-09-24 * lessThan primitive for integer comparison.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+4
2006-09-22 * Builtin function `add' to add integers.Eelco Dolstra8-26/+48
* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix.
2006-09-22 * Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+20
With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).
2006-09-22 * Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail ofEelco Dolstra2-0/+14
list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22 * New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check forEelco Dolstra2-0/+11
attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)
2006-09-21 * `nix-install-package --url': install from a URL (NIX-12).Eelco Dolstra7-16/+45
* `nix-install-package --help' (NIX-9). * `nix-install-package --non-interactive': don't prompt or pause. * Tests for nix-install-package. * Security fixes: filter the values obtained from the nixpkg.
2006-09-01 * New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the storeEelco Dolstra1-6/+22
and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01 * Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (TooEelco Dolstra2-1/+2
bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-09-01 * Fix race condition in the test.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-08-30 * Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+0
2006-08-30 * TDD: == should do a deep equality test, i.e., it should strictlyEelco Dolstra2-0/+4
evaluate its arguments.
2006-08-29 * Backwards compatibility test for ~.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-24 * New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression toEelco Dolstra2-0/+2
an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-23 * New primop: abort "error message".Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-08-23 * A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containingEelco Dolstra2-0/+13
all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
2006-08-22 * Urgh (see NIX-56).Eelco Dolstra2-8/+10
2006-08-17 * Distribute *.exp.xml.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-17 * Test for `nix-instantiate --eval-only --xml'.Eelco Dolstra4-1/+68
2006-08-16 * Meh.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2006-08-16 * A test for NIX-53.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+18
2006-07-24 * New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a functionEelco Dolstra1-0/+7
argument has a valid value, i.e., is in a certain domain. E.g., { foo : [true false] , bar : ["a" "b" "c"] }: ... This previously could be done using assertions, but domain checks will allow the buildfarm to automatically extract the configuration space from functions.
2006-07-24 * `touch' might not be in $PATH.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2006-07-24 * Tests for domain checks.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+15
2006-07-24 * Refactoring to support domain checks.Eelco Dolstra3-3/+3
2006-07-21 * Purify `make check'.Eelco Dolstra25-29/+27
2006-07-21 * Test for runtime root finding.Eelco Dolstra5-5/+64
2006-07-20 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-07-20 * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to preventEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
running applications etc. from being garbage collected.
2006-07-19 * Add a precise test for hashDerivatioModulo.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+34
2006-07-10 * This expression has an undefined variable which isn't detected, soEelco Dolstra1-0/+11
evaluation fails: error: impossible: undefined variable `gcc'
2006-06-16 * Skip this test on Cygwin, too slow (and doesn't test anything ↵Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
Cygwin-specific).
2006-05-29 * Handle $PATHs with spaces.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-05-08 * Allow function argument default values to refer to other argumentsEelco Dolstra2-0/+2
of the function. Implements NIX-45.
2006-05-02 * More tests.Eelco Dolstra3-1/+9
