2021-10-26Make experimental-features a proper typeregnat
Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features. This means that - Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed (making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features) - It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages of it.

2021-10-06libexpr: remove matchAttrs boolean from ExprLambdaAndreas Rammhold
The boolean is only used to determine if the formals are set to a non-null pointer in all our cases. We can get rid of that allocation and instead just compare the pointer value with NULL. Saving up to sizeof(bool) + platform specific alignment per ExprLambda instace. Probably not a lot of memory but perhaps a few kilobyte with nixpkgs? This also gets rid of a potential issue with dereferencing formals based on the value of the boolean that didn't have to be aligned with the formals pointer but was in all our cases.
2021-09-29libexpr: throw a more helpful eval-error if a builtin is not available due ↵Maximilian Bosch
to a missing feature-flag I found it somewhat confusing to have an error like error: attribute 'getFlake' missing if the required experimental-feature (`flakes`) is not enabled. Instead, I'd expect Nix to throw an error just like it's the case when using e.g. `nix flake` without `flakes` being enabled. With this change, the error looks like this: $ nix-instantiate -E 'builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs"' error: Cannot call 'builtins.getFlake' because experimental Nix feature 'flakes' is disabled. You can enable it via '--extra-experimental-features flakes'. at «string»:1:1: 1| builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs" | ^ I didn't use `settings.requireExperimentalFeature` here on purpose because this doesn't contain a position. Also, it doesn't seem as if we need to catch the error and check for the missing feature here since this already happens at evaluation time.

Miscellaneous improvements for positioning in eval-errors
2021-04-13libexpr: misc improvements for proper error positionMaximilian Bosch
When working on some more complex Nix code, there are sometimes rather unhelpful or misleading error messages, especially if coerce-errors are thrown. This patch is a first steps towards improving that. I'm happy to file more changes after that, but I'd like to gather some feedback first. To summarize, this patch does the following things: * Attrsets (a.k.a. `Bindings` in `libexpr`) now have a `Pos`. This is helpful e.g. to identify which attribute-set in `listToAttrs` is invalid. * The `Value`-struct has a new method named `determinePos` which tries to guess the position of a value and falls back to a default if that's not possible. This can be used to provide better messages if a coercion fails. * The new `determinePos`-API is used by `builtins.concatMap` now. With that change, Nix shows the exact position in the error where a wrong value was returned by the lambda. To make sure it's still obvious that `concatMap` is the problem, another stack-frame was added. * The changes described above can be added to every other `primop`, but first I'd like to get some feedback about the overall approach.

2021-02-22Tweak error messageEelco Dolstra
2021-01-21Improve error formattingEelco Dolstra
Changes: * The divider lines are gone. These were in practice a bit confusing, in particular with --show-trace or --keep-going, since then there were multiple lines, suggesting a start/end which wasn't the case. * Instead, multi-line error messages are now indented to align with the prefix (e.g. "error: "). * The 'description' field is gone since we weren't really using it. * 'hint' is renamed to 'msg' since it really wasn't a hint. * The error is now printed *before* the location info. * The 'name' field is no longer printed since most of the time it wasn't very useful since it was just the name of the exception (like EvalError). Ideally in the future this would be a unique, easily googleable error ID (like rustc). * "trace:" is now just "…". This assumes error contexts start with something like "while doing X". Example before: error: --- AssertionError ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nix at: (7:7) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix 6| 7| x = assert false; 1; | ^ 8| assertion 'false' failed ----------------------------------------------------- show-trace ----------------------------------------------------- trace: while evaluating the attribute 'x' of the derivation 'hello-2.10' at: (192:11) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix 191| // (lib.optionalAttrs (!(attrs ? name) && attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)) { 192| name = "${attrs.pname}-${attrs.version}"; | ^ 193| } // (lib.optionalAttrs (stdenv.hostPlatform != stdenv.buildPlatform && !dontAddHostSuffix && (attrs ? name || (attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)))) { Example after: error: assertion 'false' failed at: (7:7) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix 6| 7| x = assert false; 1; | ^ 8| … while evaluating the attribute 'x' of the derivation 'hello-2.10' at: (192:11) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix 191| // (lib.optionalAttrs (!(attrs ? name) && attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)) { 192| name = "${attrs.pname}-${attrs.version}"; | ^ 193| } // (lib.optionalAttrs (stdenv.hostPlatform != stdenv.buildPlatform && !dontAddHostSuffix && (attrs ? name || (attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)))) {
