2024-03-25Overhaul completions, redo #6693 (#8131)John Ericson
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).

2023-08-04nix/why-depends: fix output of `--precise`Maximilian Bosch
I haven't checked when this was exactly introduced, but on Nix 2.16 I realized that the additional lines inserted when using `--precise` are completely separated from the tree: nix why-depends /nix/store/ccgr4faaxys39s091qridxg1947lggh4-evcxr-0.14.2 /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0 --precise --extra-experimental-features nix-command /nix/store/ccgr4faaxys39s091qridxg1947lggh4-evcxr-0.14.2 → /nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0 → /nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0 └───bin/evcxr: …':'}.PATH=${PATH/':''/nix/store/lcf37pgp3rgww67v9x2990hbfwx96c1w-gcc-wrapper-12.2.0/bin'':'/':'}… └───bin/cpp: …k disable=SC2193.[[ "/nix/store/b7hvml0m3qmqraz1022fwvyyg6fc1vdy-gcc-12.2.0/bin/cpp" = *++ ]] &&… This is apparently because `std::cout` is buffered and flushed in the end whereas the rest of the output isn't. The fix is rather simple, just use `logger->cout` as it's already the case for the rest of the code. This way we also don't need to insert additional newlines in the `hits` map since that's something the logger takes care of. Also added a small test to make sure that the layout of this is somehow tested to reduce the risk of further regressions here.
2023-02-04Scope down `--derivation` to just the commands that use itJohn Ericson
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.

This has the same goal as b13fd4c58e81b2b2b0d72caa5ce80de861622610,but achieves it in a different way in order to not break `nix why-depends --derivation`.

2022-11-23Fix why-depends for CA derivationsTaeer Bar-Yam
why-depends assumed that we knew the output path of the second argument. For CA derivations, we might not know until it's built. One way to solve this would be to build the second installable to get the output path. In this case we don't need to, though. If the first installable (A) depends on the second (B), then getting the store path of A will necessitate having the store path B. The contrapositive is, if the store path of B is not known (i.e. it's a CA derivation which hasn't been built), then A does not depend on B.

2022-02-10nix/why-depends: fix output when not using `--precise`Maximilian Bosch
On Nix 2.6 the output of `nix why-depends --all` seems to be somewhat off: $ nix why-depends /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv /nix/store/srn5jbs1q30jpybdmxqrwskyny659qgc-nix-2.6.drv --derivation --extra-experimental-features nix-command --all /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv └───/nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv │ └───/nix/store/hm0jmhp8shbf3cl846a685nv4f5cp3fy-nspawn-inst.drv | [...] └───/nix/store/2d6q3ygiim9ijl5d4h0qqx6vnjgxywyr-system-units.drv └───/nix/store/dil014y1b8qyjhhhf5fpaah5fzdf0bzs-unit-systemd-nspawn-hydra.service.drv └───/nix/store/a9r72wwx8qrxyp7hjydyg0gsrwnn26zb-activate.drv └───/nix/store/99hlc7i4gl77wq087lbhag4hkf3kvssj-nixos-system-hydra-21.11pre-git.drv Please note that `[...]-system-units.drv` is supposed to be a direct child of `[...]-etc.drv`. The reason for that is that each new level printed by `printNode` is four spaces off in comparison to `nix why-depends --precise` because the recursive `printNode()` only prints the path and not the `tree*`-chars in the case of `--precise` and in this format the path is four spaces further indented, i.e. on a newline, but on the same level as the path's children, i.e. /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv └───/: …1-p8.drv",["out"]),("/nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv",["out"]),("/nix/store/… → /nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv As you can see `[...]-etc.drv` is a direct child of the root, but four spaces indented. This logic was directly applied to the code-path with `precise=false` which resulted in `tree*` being printed four spaces too deep. In case of no `--precise`, `hits[hash]` is empty and the path itself should be printed rather than hits using the same logic as for `hits[hash]`. With this fix, the output looks correct now: /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv └───/nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv ├───/nix/store/hm0jmhp8shbf3cl846a685nv4f5cp3fy-nspawn-inst.drv | [...] └───/nix/store/2d6q3ygiim9ijl5d4h0qqx6vnjgxywyr-system-units.drv └───/nix/store/dil014y1b8qyjhhhf5fpaah5fzdf0bzs-unit-systemd-nspawn-hydra.service.drv └───/nix/store/a9r72wwx8qrxyp7hjydyg0gsrwnn26zb-activate.drv └───/nix/store/99hlc7i4gl77wq087lbhag4hkf3kvssj-nixos-system-hydra-21.11pre-git.drv

2022-01-19Make `nix why-depends` quieter by defaultregnat
Unless `--precise` is passed, make `nix why-depends` only show the dependencies between the store paths, without introspecting them to find the actual references. This also makes it ~3x faster
2022-01-14Start the pager early-enough in `nix why-depends`regnat
`nix why-depends` is piping its output into a pager by default. However the pager was only started after the first path is printed, causing it to be excluded from the pager output. (Actually the pager was started *inside* the recursive function that was printing the dependency chain, so a new instance was started at each level. It’s a little miracle that it worked at all).

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.

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).
