2013-11-22Rename $(here) to $(d) for brevity, and remove trailing slashEelco Dolstra
2013-11-22New non-recursive, plain Make-based build systemEelco Dolstra
2013-11-19Generalise meta attributesEelco Dolstra
2013-09-03Work on Values instead of ExprsEelco Dolstra
This prevents some duplicate evaluation in nix-env and nix-instantiate. Also, when traversing ~/.nix-defexpr, only read regular files with the extension .nix. Previously it was reading files like .../channels/binary-caches/<name>. The only reason this didn't cause problems is pure luck (namely, <name> shadows an actual Nix expression, the binary-caches files happen to be syntactically valid Nix expressions, and we iterate over the directory contents in just the right order).
2013-09-03ReformatEelco Dolstra
2013-09-03Get rid of the parse tree cacheEelco Dolstra
Since we already cache files in normal form (fileEvalCache), caching parse trees is redundant. Note that getting rid of this cache doesn't actually save much memory at the moment, because parse trees are currently not freed / GC'ed.
2012-11-26nix-instantiate: Fix read-only evaluationEelco Dolstra
2012-11-26Make "nix-build -A <derivation>.<output>" do the right thingEelco Dolstra
For example, given a derivation with outputs "out", "man" and "bin": $ nix-build -A pkg produces ./result pointing to the "out" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.man produces ./result-man pointing to the "man" output; $ nix-build -A pkg.all produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin; $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2 produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.
2012-10-04getDerivation(): Don't always quietly ignore assertion failureEelco Dolstra
Ignoring assertion failures makes some sense for nix-env -qa, but not for nix-instantiate/nix-build or hydra-eval-jobs.
2012-10-03When ‘--help’ is given, just run ‘man’ to show the manual pageEelco Dolstra
I.e. do what git does. I'm too lazy to keep the builtin help text up to date :-) Also add ‘--help’ to various commands that lacked it (e.g. nix-collect-garbage).
2012-10-03Add a ‘--repair’ flag to nix-instantiateEelco Dolstra
This allows repairing corrupted derivations and other source files.
2012-08-28Make "nix-instantiate -" interruptibleEelco Dolstra
2012-08-27Merge branch 'master' into no-manifestsEelco Dolstra
2012-08-24Include the output name in the GC root linkEelco Dolstra
Output names are now appended to resulting GC symlinks, e.g. by nix-build. For backwards compatibility, if the output is named "out", nothing is appended. E.g. doing "nix-build -A foo" on a derivation that produces outputs "out", "bin" and "dev" will produce symlinks "./result", "./result-bin" and "./result-dev", respectively.
2012-07-30Refactor settings processingEelco Dolstra
Put all Nix configuration flags in a Settings object.
2012-04-17nix-instantiate: default to "default.nix" if no arguments are givenEelco Dolstra
2012-04-17Added utility command ‘nix-instantiate --find-file’ to look up a file in ↵Eelco Dolstra
Nix's search path
2012-02-04* Inline some functions and get rid of the indirection throughEelco Dolstra
EvalState::eval(). This gives a 12% speedup on ‘nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos/ -A system --readonly-mode’ (from 1.01s to 0.89s).
2011-12-01* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-buildEelco Dolstra
and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-08-31* Eliminate all uses of the global variable ‘store’ from libstore.Eelco Dolstra
This should also fix: nix-instantiate: ./../boost/shared_ptr.hpp:254: T* boost::shared_ptr<T>::operator->() const [with T = nix::StoreAPI]: Assertion `px != 0' failed. which was caused by hashDerivationModulo() calling the ‘store’ object (during store upgrades) before openStore() assigned it.
2011-08-06* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angleEelco Dolstra
brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown.
2011-08-06* Refactoring: move parseExprFromFile() and parseExprFromString() intoEelco Dolstra
the EvalState class.
2010-11-16* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-28* Handle out of memory condition.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-22* Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now storesEelco Dolstra
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
2010-10-22* Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-20* Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the NixEelco Dolstra
expression evaluator.
2010-10-04* Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers,Eelco Dolstra
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS. Without this, on OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct stat", or vice versa. This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere. * Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile(). The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition of the loop before.
2010-05-12* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra

2010-04-19* Drop the dependency on the ATerm library.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-13* Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute namesEelco Dolstra
efficiently. The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently using a pointer equality test.
2010-04-12* Indented strings.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-12* Don't use ATerms for the abstract syntax trees anymore. NotEelco Dolstra
finished yet.
2010-04-08* Remove a lot of dead code.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-07* Update autoCallFunction() and findAlongAttrPath().Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-07* expr-to-xml -> value-to-xml.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-07* Implemented the primops necessary for generating the NixOS manual.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-31* Implemented derivations.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-31Make source location info in the XML output optional.Ludovic Courtès
* src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.cc (nix::showAttrs): Add `location' parameter. Provide location XML attributes when it's true. Update callers. (nix::printTermAsXML): Likewise. * src/libexpr/expr-to-xml.hh (nix::printTermAsXML): Update prototype; have `location' default to `false'. * src/nix-instantiate/nix-instantiate.cc (printResult, processExpr): Add `location' parameter; update callers. (run): Add support for `--no-location'. * src/nix-instantiate/help.txt: Update accordingly. * tests/lang.sh: Invoke `nix-instantiate' with `--no-location' for the XML tests. * tests/lang/eval-okay-toxml.exp, tests/lang/eval-okay-to-xml.nix: New files.
2010-03-30* More operators / primops.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-30* More primops.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-29* Started integrating the new evaluator.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-02* When using the included sqlite/aterm libraries, build withEelco Dolstra
--enable-shared. * In libutil/libstore/libexpr etc., link against sqlite and aterm. * Some more header file hygiene.
2010-02-24* `helpText' is now zero-terminated.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-24* ADDITIONAL_NETWORK_LIBS -> LIBS.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-24* Add ${sqlite_lib} everywhere. Just adding it in `libstore' doesn'tEelco Dolstra
work on x86_64 when sqlite is compiled statically.
