2016-08-29nix path-info: Add --json flagEelco Dolstra
Also, factor out JSON generation from value-to-json.{cc,hh}, and support producing indented JSON.
2016-08-29callFunction: Copy functors to the heapShea Levy
Normally it's impossible to take a reference to the function passed to callFunction, so some callers (e.g. ExprApp::eval) allocate that value on the stack. For functors, a reference to the functor itself may be kept, so we need to have it on the heap. Fixes #1045

2016-08-24Fix queryPathFromHashPart()Eelco Dolstra
The inner lambda was returning a SQLite-internal char * rather than a std::string, leading to Hydra errors liks Caught exception in Hydra::Controller::Root->narinfo "path ‘ø˜£â€™ is not in the Nix store at /nix/store/6mvvyb8fgwj23miyal5mdr8ik4ixk15w-hydra-0.1.1234.abcdef/libexec/hydra/lib/Hydra/Controller/Root.pm line 352."
2016-08-23nix build: Use Nix search pathEelco Dolstra
That is, unless --file is specified, the Nix search path is synthesized into an attribute set. Thus you can say $ nix build nixpkgs.hello assuming $NIX_PATH contains an entry of the form "nixpkgs=...". This is more verbose than $ nix build hello but is less ambiguous.
2016-08-17Add a mechanism for derivation attributes to reference the derivation's outputsEelco Dolstra
For example, you can now say: configureFlags = "--prefix=${placeholder "out"} --includedir=${placeholder "dev"}"; The strings returned by the ‘placeholder’ builtin are replaced at build time by the actual store paths corresponding to the specified outputs. Previously, you had to work around the inability to self-reference by doing stuff like: preConfigure = '' configureFlags+=" --prefix $out --includedir=$dev" ''; or rely on ad-hoc variable interpolation semantics in Autoconf or Make (e.g. --prefix=\$(out)), which doesn't always work.

2016-08-10HttpBinaryCacheStore: Retry on transient HTTP errorsEelco Dolstra
This makes us more robust against 500 errors from CloudFront or S3 (assuming the 500 error isn't cached by CloudFront...).

2016-08-10Add a "root" parameter to local storesEelco Dolstra
This makes it easier to create a diverted store, i.e. NIX_REMOTE="local?root=/tmp/root" instead of NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/root/nix/store&state=/tmp/root/nix/var/nix" NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/root/nix/var/log

Was added in 2006 to "measure the cost of the Nix approach". Given that it uses /usr/bin/perl, I think this is safe to remove.

2016-08-04Dockerfile: Add alpine dependencies (#1011)Aneesh Agrawal
* Dockerfile: add GNU tar native dependency `builtins.fetchTarball` requires GNU tar to be available in the $PATH in order to unpack the fetched tarball (there is a FIXME comment for this), which Alpine does not ship by default (it ships BusyBox tar). * Dockerfile: add GNU bash native dependency `nix-shell` defaults to invoking `bash` from the $PATH for the subshell. In theory this can be overriden with the NIX_BUILD_SHELL environment variable, but this does not work properly. `nix-shell` generates and passes a script (`$rcFile`) to be executed by the subshell which uses bashisms (`source` and `shopt`). Additionally, in interactive mode, `nix-shell` passes the `--rcfile` argument to the shell, which is another bashism. Because `bash` is thus de-facto required, add `bash` as a native package dependency to make it available for `nix-shell`.
2016-07-29Set $MANPATH (#1005)Alexey Shmalko
Currently, man has issues finding man pages for Nix-installed application (also, `nix-env --help` doesn't work). The issue is caused by custom `$MANPATH` set by my system. That makes man use it instead of searching in default location. Either of next lines workaround the issue: ```sh unset MANPATH export MANPATH=$HOME/.nix-profile/share/man:$MANPATH ``` This patch adds the later line to the `nix-profile.sh` if user has `MANPATH` set. (Not clearing `MANPATH` as that would be disrespect of user's preferences.) As a side-effect, host's man might find man pages installed by Nix.

For one particular NixOS configuration, this cut the runtime of "nix-store -r --dry-run" from 6m51s to 3.4s. It also fixes a bug in the size calculation that was causing certain paths to be counted twice, e.g. before: these paths will be fetched (1249.98 MiB download, 2995.74 MiB unpacked): and after: these paths will be fetched (1219.56 MiB download, 2862.17 MiB unpacked):
