2014-02-19 | nix-instantiate: Add a flag --expr / -E to read expressions from the command ↵ | Eelco Dolstra | |
line This is basically a shortcut for ‘echo 'expr...' | nix-instantiate -’. Also supported by nix-build and nix-shell. | |||
2013-07-19 | Rename ‘nix-build --run-env’ to ‘nix-shell’ | Eelco Dolstra | |
2013-07-19 | nix-build --run-env: Add a ‘--pure’ flag | Eelco Dolstra | |
This causes the environment to be (almost) cleared, thus giving a shell that more closely resembled the actual Nix derivation. | |||
2013-07-11 | nix-build --run-env: Source $stdenv/setup in the interactive shell | Eelco Dolstra | |
This ensures that not just environment variables are set, but also shell functions such as unpackPhase, configurePhase and so on. | |||
2012-12-04 | Document multiple output support | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-05-10 | Document "nix-build --run-env" | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-05-09 | Document some nix-store subcommands | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-04-06 | Include environment variables in the manpages | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-04-06 | Include common options in the manpages using some XInclude hackery | Eelco Dolstra | |
2012-01-13 | * nix-build: put the temporary derivation symlink in a temporary | Eelco Dolstra | |
directory rather than the current directory. * nix-build: --drv-link now implies --add-drv-link. | |||
2009-07-14 | * Remove the redundant <sections> around refentries. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2007-12-31 | * More documentation. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2007-09-19 | * Manpage for nix-copy-closure. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2007-02-05 | * Compatibility with docbook5-xsl. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2006-10-05 | * Documented nix-instantiate --xml, --strict. | Eelco Dolstra | |
* Added an example to the nix-build section. | |||
2006-10-05 | * Documented --attr / -A. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2006-10-05 | * Document --arg. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2006-10-02 | * Manual updates (especially how nix-build makes testing packages much | Eelco Dolstra | |
easier; no longer need a helper expression). | |||
2006-08-21 | * Convert to DocBook 5. | Eelco Dolstra | |
* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy. | |||
2005-07-13 | * nix-build: default to `./default.nix' if no paths are specified. | Eelco Dolstra | |
So when using Nix as a build tool, you can just say `nix-build' and it will build the top-level derivation defined in `default.nix'. | |||
2005-04-10 | * Manual updates. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2005-04-07 | * More manual updates. | Eelco Dolstra | |
