2024-04-22meson: flip the switch!!Qyriad
This commit makes Meson the default buildsystem for Lix. The Make buildsystem is now deprecated and will be removed soon, but has not yet, which will be done in a later commit when all seems good. The mesonBuild jobs have been removed, and have not been replaced with equivalent jobs to ensure the Make buildsystem still works. The full, new commands in a development shell are: $ meson setup ./build "--prefix=$out" $mesonFlags (A simple `meson setup ./build` will also build, but will do a different thing, not having the settings from package.nix applied.) $ meson compile -C build $ meson test -C build --suite=check $ meson install -C build $ meson test -C build --suite=installcheck (Check and installcheck may both be done after install, allowing you to omit the --suite argument entirely, but this is the order package.nix runs them in.) If tests fail and Meson helpfully has no output for why, use the `--print-error-logs` option to `meson test`. Why this is not the default I cannot explain. If you change a setting in the buildsystem, most cases will automatically regenerate the Meson configuration, but some cases, like trying to build a specific target whose name is new to the buildsystem (e.g. `meson compile -C build src/libmelt/libmelt.dylib`, when `libmelt.dylib` did not exist as a target the last time the buildsystem was generated), then you can reconfigure using new settings but existing options, and only recompiling stuff affected by the changes: $ meson setup --reconfigure build Note that changes to the default values in `meson.options` or in the `default_options :` argument to project() are NOT propagated with `--reconfigure`. If you want a totally clean build, you can use: $ meson setup --wipe build That will work regardless of if `./build` exists or not. Specific, named targets may be addressed in `meson build -C build <target>` with the "target ID" if there is one, which is the first string argument passed to target functions that have one, and unrelated to the variable name, e.g.: libexpr_dylib = library('nixexpr', …) can be addressed with: $ meson compile -C build nixexpr All targets may be addressed as their output, relative to the build directory, e.g.: $ meson compile -C build src/libexpr/libnixexpr.so But Meson does not consider intermediate files like object files targets. To build a specific object file, use Ninja directly and specify the output file relative to the build directory: $ ninja -C build src/libexpr/libnixexpr.so.p/nixexpr.cc.o To inspect the canonical source of truth on what the state of the buildsystem configuration is, use: $ meson introspect Have fun!

2024-04-15build internal API docs with MesonQyriad
This commit adds the capability for building the Doxygen internal API docs in the Meson buildsystem, and also makes doing so the default for the internal-api-docs hydra job. Aside from the /nix-support directory, which differed only by the hash part of a store path, the outputs of hydraJobs.internal-api-docs before and after this commit were bit-for-bit identical on my machine.

2024-04-08pre-commit: stop using the flakeJade Lovelace

2024-04-07package: put boehmgc patch logic in package.nixQyriad
In our view it really doesn't make sense to not have this in in package.nix in some way. These patches aren't just for performance or something -- Lix flat out doesn't build without these patches. (Arguably that makes them a buildsystem responsibility as well, but that can wait for when we're ready to start adding subproject fallback dependency resolution to Meson.) This is a step towards making `package.nix` more self-sufficient and `callPackage`able without excessive external logic. With this change the following command is enough to build Lix from out of the flake: nix-build -E 'let pkgs = import <nixpkgs> { }; in pkgs.callPackage ./package.nix { build-release-notes = false; inherit (pkgs.lib) fileset; nix-doc = pkgs.callPackage ./nix-doc/package.nix { }; }' Change-Id: Ia37fe8171f87d3293033de8be07d9bab12716f1d

2024-04-03repl: improve `:doc` builtin repl command to support lambdas.Lunaphied
For a long time `nix repl` has supported displaying documentation set on builtins, however, it has long been convention to use Markdown comments on Nix functions themselves for documentation. This exposes that information to `nix repl` users in a nice and formatted way. NixOS/rfcs#145 doc-comments are primarily what this feature is intended to consume, however, support for lambda documentation in the repl is experimental. We do our best effort to support the RFC here. These changes are based on [the nix-doc library](https://github.com/lf-/nix-doc) and are licensed under the terms described in the relevant source files.

hacking changelog-d to support not just github but also forgejo and gerrit is a lot more complicated than it's worth, even moreso since the entire thing can just as well be done with ~60 lines of python. this new script is also much cheaper to instantiate (being python), so having it enabled in all shells is far less of a hassle. we've also adjusted existing release notes that referenced a gerrit cl to auto-link to the cl in question, making the diff a bit bigger closes https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/176 Change-Id: I8ba7dd0070aad9ba4474401731215fcf5d9d2130

2024-03-22build: optionally build and install with mesonQyriad
This commit adds several meson.build, which successfully build and install Lix executables, libraries, and headers. Meson does not yet build docs, Perl bindings, or run tests, which will be added in following commits. As such, this commit does not remove the existing build system, or make it the default, and also as such, this commit has several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the default. This commit does not modify any source files. A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to `nix flake check`. Change-Id: I667c8685b13b7bab91e281053f807a11616ae3d4

2024-03-11package: refactor Nix out of flake.nix and into package.nixQyriad
This series takes a somewhat different approach from the flake rework done in NixOS/nix. The package.nix here does not provide callPackage options for all the various settings in the build, and instead the other places Nix derivations are used (like internal-api-docs) will .overrideAttrs the normal Nix package derivation. This more closely matches how these things were structured originally, and results in less churn and more atomicity in these changes. In the future, package.nix likely will migrate to have more build options in the callPackage arguments, but we are also planning to rewrite the build system anyway.

2024-03-10remove getDerivations deduplicationeldritch horrors
deduplication does not currently work fully, showing derivations multiple times if they have different underlying values. this can happen by selecting the same derivation twice for two different attributes of a set, using inherit-from (which reduces to the previous), importing nixpkgs twice, or any other number of things. since users already have to deal with duplicates for this reason it won't hurt to add *more* duplicates. the alternative would be to deduplicate fully, which would drop derivations that are currently returned and those pose a regression risk.
