2006-09-22 | * Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 of | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 for | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 Dolstra | 7 | -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 store | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -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 "{". (Too | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 Dolstra | 1 | -0/+1 | |
2006-08-30 | * Okay, that's a bit harder than expected. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+0 | |
2006-08-30 | * TDD: == should do a deep equality test, i.e., it should strictly | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+4 | |
evaluate its arguments. | |||||
2006-08-29 | * Backwards compatibility test for ~. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-08-24 | * New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression to | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 Dolstra | 1 | -0/+1 | |
2006-08-23 | * A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containing | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -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 Dolstra | 2 | -8/+10 | |
2006-08-17 | * Distribute *.exp.xml. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-08-17 | * Test for `nix-instantiate --eval-only --xml'. | Eelco Dolstra | 4 | -1/+68 | |
2006-08-16 | * Meh. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2006-08-16 | * A test for NIX-53. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+18 | |
2006-07-24 | * New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a function | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -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 Dolstra | 1 | -1/+0 | |
2006-07-24 | * Tests for domain checks. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+15 | |
2006-07-24 | * Refactoring to support domain checks. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -3/+3 | |
2006-07-21 | * Purify `make check'. | Eelco Dolstra | 25 | -29/+27 | |
2006-07-21 | * Test for runtime root finding. | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -5/+64 | |
2006-07-20 | * Doh. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-07-20 | * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to prevent | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+1 | |
running applications etc. from being garbage collected. | |||||
2006-07-19 | * Add a precise test for hashDerivatioModulo. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+34 | |
2006-07-10 | * This expression has an undefined variable which isn't detected, so | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -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 Dolstra | 1 | -0/+3 | |
Cygwin-specific). | |||||
2006-05-29 | * Handle $PATHs with spaces. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-05-08 | * Allow function argument default values to refer to other arguments | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+2 | |
of the function. Implements NIX-45. | |||||
2006-05-02 | * More tests. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -1/+9 | |
2006-05-02 | * Tests for NIX-45. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -0/+21 | |
2006-05-01 | * String interpolation. Expressions like | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+10 | |
"--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib" can now be written as "--with-freetype2-library=${freetype}/lib" An arbitrary expression can be enclosed within ${...}, not just identifiers. * Escaping in string literals: \n, \r, \t interpreted as in C, any other character following \ is interpreted as-is. * Newlines are now allowed in string literals. | |||||
2006-05-01 | * Allow string concatenations involving derivations, e.g., | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -4/+5 | |
configureFlags = "--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib"; | |||||
2006-04-25 | * Unless --with-bzip2 is specified, use a copy of bzip2 in the | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+6 | |
externals directory. This is in particular useful because though most systems have bzip2/bunzip2, they don't always have libbz2, which we need for bsdiff/bspatch. | |||||
2006-03-10 | * Allow `make check' to work in directories that have symlink | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+3 | |
components. | |||||
2006-03-10 | * `nix-env -qa --description' shows human-readable descriptions of | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+10 | |
packages (provided that they have a `meta.description' attribute). E.g., $ ./src/nix-env/nix-env -qa --description gcc gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for sparc-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for mips-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for arm-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x | |||||
2006-03-10 | * Oops. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-03-10 | * `nix-env -q' now accepts arguments that allow specific derivations | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -22/+22 | |
to be queried, e.g., `nix-env -qa firefox'. This does require the argument '*' to be passed if one wants information about all derivations, so the old `nix-env -qa' now is `nix-env -qa "*"'. | |||||
2006-03-01 | * Tests for fixed-output derivations (and attribute selection, incidentally). | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -1/+67 | |
2006-03-01 | * Tests to prevent a repeat of the parseHash32 debacle. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+7 | |
2006-03-01 | * Doh! | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+1 | |
2006-03-01 | * More test coverage. | Eelco Dolstra | 7 | -0/+15 | |
2006-03-01 | * Doh! | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -2/+2 | |
2006-03-01 | * Test `nix-store -q --binding'. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -0/+3 | |
2006-03-01 | * Test `nix-store --add' and `nix-store -q --hash'. | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -4/+17 | |
2006-03-01 | * TDD! Woohoo! | Eelco Dolstra | 5 | -2/+22 | |
2006-03-01 | * Oops! | Eelco Dolstra | 2 | -2/+3 | |
2006-03-01 | * Test the nix-store --gc subflags. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+11 | |
