Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author	Files	Lines
2006-12-12	* New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter files	Eelco Dolstra	3	-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 the	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+12
	names of the attributes in an attribute set.
2006-12-02	* Clear NIX_REMOTE in the tests.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2006-10-19	* Checks for allowedReferences and some other features.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-2/+100
	* Use nix-build in a test.
2006-10-17	* Another test.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2006-10-17	* Fix the tests wrt the AST changes, i.e., Str(s) -> Str(s, []), and	Eelco Dolstra	19	-22/+22
	the semantic changes.
2006-10-11	* Removed URIs from the evaluator (NIX-66). They are now just another	Eelco Dolstra	3	-3/+3
	kind of notation for strings.
2006-10-03	* toFile: added an additional argument to specify the store path	Eelco Dolstra	1	-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 Dolstra	2	-0/+15

2006-09-24	* Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-0/+4
	* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24	* Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-0/+4

2006-09-24	* lessThan primitive for integer comparison.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+4

2006-09-22	* Builtin function `add' to add integers.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-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 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.
