From 7dd91d3779b4f806ac0085e0ccc60416d81c1148 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eelco Dolstra Date: Sun, 25 May 2003 22:42:19 +0000 Subject: * Prebuilt package sharing. We allow transparent binary deployment by sharing package directories (i.e., the result of building a Nix descriptor). `nix-pull-prebuilts' obtains a list of all known prebuilts by consulting the paths and URLs specified in $prefix/etc/nix/prebuilts.conf. The mappings ($pkghash, $prebuilthash) and ($prebuilthash, $location) are registered with Nix so that it can use the prebuilt with hash $prebuilthash when installing a package with hash $pkghash by downloading and unpacking $location. `nix-push-prebuilts' creates prebuilts for all packages for which no prebuilt is known to exist. It can then optionally upload these to the network through rsync. `nix-[pull|push]-prebuilts' just provide a policy. Nix provides the mechanism through the `nix [export|regprebuilt|regurl]' commands. --- src/Makefile.am | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) (limited to 'src/Makefile.am') diff --git a/src/Makefile.am b/src/Makefile.am index d6dbdcb734e0..31fad892583b 100644 --- a/src/Makefile.am +++ b/src/Makefile.am @@ -13,5 +13,8 @@ install-data-local: $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/descriptors $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/sources $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/links + $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/prebuilts + $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/prebuilts/imports + $(INSTALL) -d $(localstatedir)/nix/prebuilts/exports $(INSTALL) -d $(prefix)/pkg $(bindir)/nix init -- cgit 1.4.1
