2023-04-07libmain: Clarify the lack of initLibExpr()Robert Hensing
Quote Why not initLibExpr()? initGC() is essentially that, but detectStackOverflow is not an instance of the init function concept, as it may have to be invoked more than once per process. Furthermore, renaming initGC to initLibExpr is more trouble than it's worth at this time.
2023-04-07Move macOS TMPDIR hack from initNix to initLibStoreRobert Hensing
This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose children may need them. Fixing one issue at a time, so postponing. See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7731 Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
2023-04-07Move preloadNSS() from initNix to initLibStoreRobert Hensing
It is required for the sandbox, which is a libstore responsibility; not just libmain. Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
2023-04-07Move sodium_init() to initLibStore()Robert Hensing
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
2023-04-07Move initLibStore() immediately after initLibUtil()Robert Hensing
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries. The goal of this reordering is to make initLibStore self-sufficient in a following commit.
2023-04-07Move loadConfFile() to initLibStoreRobert Hensing
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries. Using libstore without loading the config file is risky, as sqlite may then be misconfigured. See https://github.com/cachix/cachix/issues/475
2023-04-07Move OpenSSL init to initLibUtilRobert Hensing
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things, by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
2023-04-07Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs (#8146)John Ericson
* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs 99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions: - Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note - Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get per-definition docs Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and removing trailing spaces. Picking up from #8133 * Fix two things from comments * Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath` * Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs This will render correctly.

Make it instead a method on `Derivation` that can work with any store. We will need this for a CLI command to create a derivation.
2023-04-07Include the name in the JSON for derivationsJohn Ericson
This is non-breaking change in the to-JSON direction. This *is* a breaking change in the from-JSON direction, but we don't care, as that is brand new in this PR. `nix show-derivation --help` currently has the sole public documentation of this format, it is updated accordingly.

2023-04-07Rename and protect `BufferedSink::write`Théophane Hufschmitt
The `write` name is ambiguous and could lead to some funny bugs like https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/8173#issuecomment-1500009480. So rename it to the more explicit `writeUnbuffered`. Besides, this method shouldn't be (and isn't) used outside of the class implementation, so mark it `protected`. This makes it more symetrical to `BufferedSource` which uses a `protected readUnbuffered` method.
2023-04-06Add `Store::isTrustedClient()`matthewcroughan
This function returns true or false depending on whether the Nix client is trusted or not. Mostly relevant when speaking to a remote store with a daemon. We include this information in `nix ping store` and `nix doctor` Co-Authored-By: John Ericson <John.Ericson@Obsidian.Systems>
2023-04-06Describe active experimental features in the contributing guideJohn Ericson
They are put in the manual separate pages under the new overarching description of experimental features. The settings page just lists the valid experimental feature names (so people know what a valid setting entry looks like), with links to those pages. It doesn't attempt to describe each experimental feature as that is too much information for the configuration settings section.

2023-04-04Assemble experimental feature docs outside of Nix itselfJohn Ericson
Instead of constructing a markdown list in C++ (which involved all sorts of nasty string literals), export some JSON and assemble it with the manual build system. Besides following the precedent set with other dumped data, this is a better separate of content and presentation; if we decide for example we want to display this information in a different way, or in a different section of the manual, it will become much easier to do so.

2023-04-03nix-store.cc: Refactor, remove qDefaultRobert Hensing
2023-04-03Enable -Werror=switch-enumRobert Hensing
switch statements must now match all enum values or disable the warning. Explicit is good. This has helped us find two bugs, after solving another one by debugging. From now on, adding to an enum will raise errors where they are not explicitly handled, which is good for productivity, and helps us decide the correct behavior in all usages. Notably still excluded from this though are the cases where the warning is disabled by local pragmas. fromTOML.cc did not build despite a top-level pragma, so I've had to resort to a makefile solution for that.
