2023-03-15Make command infra less stateful and more regularJohn Ericson
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.

2023-03-02Get rid of some unchecked calls to std::coutEelco Dolstra
2022-12-20Merge toDerivations() into toDerivedPaths()Eelco Dolstra
toDerivedPaths() now returns DerivedPathWithInfo, which is DerivedPath with some attributes needed by 'nix profile' etc. Preparation for #7417.
2022-03-11Factor out a `LogStore` interfaceJohn Ericson
Continue progress on #5729. Just as I hoped, this uncovered an issue: the daemon protocol is missing a way to query build logs. This doesn't effect `unix://`, but does effect `ssh://`. A FIXME is left for this, so we come back to it later.
2021-09-30`std::visit` by referenceJohn Ericson
I had started the trend of doing `std::visit` by value (because a type error once mislead me into thinking that was the only form that existed). While the optomizer in principle should be able to deal with extra coppying or extra indirection once the lambdas inlined, sticking with by reference is the conventional default. I hope this might even improve performance.
2021-05-17Enfore the use of properly built paths in libcmdregnat
Replace `DerivedPathWithHints` by a new `BuiltPath` type that serves as a proof that the corresponding path has been built.

Just a renaming for now
2021-04-05Make `DerivedPathWithHints` a newtypeJohn Ericson
This allows us to namespace its constructors under it.

2020-10-06Remove static variable name clashesEelco Dolstra
This was useful for an experiment with building Nix as a single compilation unit. It's not very useful otherwise but also doesn't hurt...
2020-07-23Make `Buildable` a `std::variant`John Ericson
I think this better captures the intent of what's going on: we either have an opaque store path, or a drv path with some outputs. Having this structure will also help us support CA derivations: we'll have to allow the outpath paths to be optional, so the structure we gain now makes up for the structure we loose then.

2019-12-10Make the Store API more type-safeEelco Dolstra
Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like <store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix. Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop() function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics: after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types. Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern (e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).

2017-07-14Avoid a call to derivationFromPath()Eelco Dolstra
This doesn't work in read-only mode, ensuring that operations like nix path-info --store https://cache.nixos.org -S nixpkgs.hello (asking for the closure size of nixpkgs.hello in cache.nixos.org) work when nixpkgs.hello doesn't exist in the local store.

This replaces "nix-store --read-log". It checks the local store and any configured substituters for the requested logs.
