As I complained in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6784#issuecomment-1421777030 (a
comment on the wrong PR, sorry again!), #6693 introduced a second
completions mechanism to fix a bug. Having two completion mechanisms
isn't so nice.
As @thufschmitt also pointed out, it was a bummer to go from `FlakeRef`
to `std::string` when collecting flake refs. Now it is `FlakeRefs`
again.
The underlying issue that sought to work around was that completion of
arguments not at the end can still benefit from the information from
latter arguments.
To fix this better, we rip out that change and simply defer all
completion processing until after all the (regular, already-complete)
arguments have been passed.
In addition, I noticed the original completion logic used some global
variables. I do not like global variables, because even if they save
lines of code, they also obfuscate the architecture of the code.
I got rid of them moved them to a new `RootArgs` class, which now has
`parseCmdline` instead of `Args`. The idea is that we have many argument
parsers from subcommands and what-not, but only one root args that owns
the other per actual parsing invocation. The state that was global is
now part of the root args instead.
This did, admittedly, add a bunch of new code. And I do feel bad about
that. So I went and added a lot of API docs to try to at least make the
current state of things clear to the next person.

This is needed for RFC 134 (tracking issue #7868). It was very hard to
modularize `Installable` parsing when there were two completion
arguments. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is *easy* now, but at least
it is less hard (and the completions test finally passed).

Improve tests and docs prior to refactoring completions

`///@file` makes them show up in the internal API dos. A tiny few were
missing `#pragma once`.
|
|
Stratify `ExtraPathInfo` along `Installable` hierarchy
|
|
Instead of having a bunch of optional fields, have a few subclasses
which can have mandatory fields.
Additionally, the new `getExtraPathInfo`, and `nixpkgsFlakeRef`, are
moved to `InstallableValue`.
I did these things because https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/134 ; with
these things moved to `InstallableValue`, the base `Installable` no
longer depends on libexpr! This is a major step towards that.
Also, add a bunch of doc comments for sake of the internal API docs.

This makes the help commands show up prominently at the top of the
'nix' manpage.

Already, we had classes like `BuiltPathsCommand` and `StorePathsCommand`
which provided alternative `run` virtual functions providing the
implementation with more arguments. This was a very nice and easy way to
make writing command; just fill in the virtual functions and it is
fairly clear what to do.
However, exception to this pattern were `Installable{,s}Command`. These
two classes instead just had a field where the installables would be
stored, and various side-effecting `prepare` and `load` machinery too
fill them in. Command would wish out those fields.
This isn't so clear to use.
What this commit does is make those command classes like the others,
with richer `run` functions.
Not only does this restore the pattern making commands easier to write,
it has a number of other benefits:
- `prepare` and `load` are gone entirely! One command just hands just
hands off to the next.
- `useDefaultInstallables` because `defaultInstallables`. This takes
over `prepare` for the one case that needs it, and provides enough
flexiblity to handle `nix repl`'s idiosyncratic migration.
- We can use `ref` instead of `std::shared_ptr`. The former must be
initialized (so it is like Rust's `Box` rather than `Option<Box>`,
This expresses the invariant that the installable are in fact
initialized much better.
This is possible because since we just have local variables not
fields, we can stop worrying about the not-yet-initialized case.
- Fewer lines of code! (Finally I have a large refactor that makes the
number go down not up...)
- `nix repl` is now implemented in a clearer way.
The last item deserves further mention. `nix repl` is not like the other
installable commands because instead working from once-loaded
installables, it needs to be able to load them again and again.
To properly support this, we make a new superclass
`RawInstallablesCommand`. This class has the argument parsing and
completion logic, but does *not* hand off parsed installables but
instead just the raw string arguments.
This is exactly what `nix repl` needs, and allows us to instead of
having the logic awkwardly split between `prepare`,
`useDefaultInstallables,` and `load`, have everything right next to each
other. I think this will enable future simplifications of that argument
defaulting logic, but I am saving those for a future PR --- best to keep
code motion and more complicated boolean expression rewriting separate
steps.
The "diagnostic ignored `-Woverloaded-virtual`" pragma helps because C++
doesn't like our many `run` methods. In our case, we don't mind the
shadowing it all --- it is *intentional* that the derived class only
provides a `run` method, and doesn't call any of the overridden `run`
methods.

This was causing random failures in tests/ca/substitute.ca: 'nix copy
--file ./content-addressed.nix' wouldn't get the default installable
'.' applied in InstallablesCommand::load(), so it would do nothing.

the term was hard to discover, as its definition and explanation were in
a very long document lacking an overview section.
search did not help because it occurs so often.
- clarify wording in the definition
- add an overview of installable types
- add "installable" to glossary
- link to definition from occurrences of the term
- be more precise about where store derivation outputs are processed
- installable Nix expressions must evaluate to a derivation

Resolves #7437 for new `nix` commands only by adding a `--stdin` flag.
If paths are also passed on the cli they will be combined with the ones
from standard input.

It is independent of SourceExprCommand, which is about parsing
installables, except for the fact that parsing installables is one of
the many things influenced by read-only mode.
|
|
The REPL itself and the `nix repl` CLI are conceptually different
things, and thus deserve to be in different files.
|
|
Per the old FIXME, this flag was on too many commands, and mostly
ignored. Now it is just on the commands where it actually has an effect.
Per https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7261, I would still like to get
rid of it entirely, but that is a separate project. This change should
be good with or without doing that.

Improve shell completion of flake inputs
|
|
|
|
Defers completion of flake inputs until the whole command line is parsed
so that we know what flakes we need to complete the inputs of.
Previously, `nix build flake --update-input <Tab>` always behaved like
`nix build . --update-input <Tab>`.
|
|
Allow `nix build flake1 flake2 --update-input <Tab>` to complete the
inputs of both flakes.
Also do tilde expansion so that `nix build ~/flake --update-input <Tab>`
works.

In particular, use std::make_shared and enumerate(). Also renamed some
fields to fit naming conventions.

only file and line of the returned position were ever used, it wasn't actually
used a position. as such we may as well use a path+int pair for only those two
values and remove a use of Pos that would not work well with a position table.

In particular, this now works:
$ nix path-info --eval-store auto --store https://cache.nixos.org nixpkgs#hello
Previously this would fail as it would try to upload the hello .drv to
cache.nixos.org. Now the .drv is instantiated in the local store, and
then we check for the existence of the outputs in cache.nixos.org.
