2023-03-23error.cc: Only suggest show-trace when truncated trace items would be printedRobert Hensing
Otherwise, a trace consisting of frame frame frame non-frame ... would reach the non-frame and print the suggestion, even though it would have ignored the non-frame anyway. This resulted in a peculariar situation where --show-trace would have no apparent effect, as the trace was actually already complete.

2022-12-13Introduce AbstractPosEelco Dolstra
This makes the position object used in exceptions abstract, with a method getSource() to get the source code of the file in which the error originated. This is needed for lazy trees because source files don't necessarily exist in the filesystem, and we don't want to make libutil depend on the InputAccessor type in libfetcher.

Save developers from scrolling by displaying the error message last, below the stack trace.
2022-12-12Don't reverse stack trace when showingFlorian Friesdorf
When debugging nix expressions the outermost trace tends to be more useful than the innermost. It is therefore printed last to save developers from scrolling.

2022-03-30libutil: Change return value of addTrace to voidDaniel Pauls
The return value of BaseError::addTrace(...) is never used and error-prone as subclasses calling it will return a BaseError instead of the subclass. This commit changes its return value to be void.

2022-03-07Implement `operator<<` for Suggestionsregnat
That way there’s no need to explicitely convert it to a string when printing it
2022-03-07Implement a suggestions mechanismregnat
Each `Error` class now includes a set of suggestions, and these are printed by the top-level handler.

Text representation for errors should include the trace if --show-trace is passed.

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)))) {
