2023-05-10Fix `nix print-dev-env` & `nix develop` with drv pathsJohn Ericson
Fixes #8309 This regression was because both `CmdDevelop` and `CmdPrintDevEnv` were switched to be `InstallableValueCommand` subclasses, but actually neither should have been. The `nixpkgsFlakeRef` method should indeed not be on the base installable class, because "flake refs" and "nixpkgs" are not installable-wide notions, but that doesn't mean these commands should only accept installable values.

Use `set -u` and `set -o pipefail` to catch accidental mistakes and failures more strongly. - `set -u` catches the use of undefined variables - `set -o pipefail` catches failures (like `set -e`) earlier in the pipeline. This makes the tests a bit more robust. It is nice to read code not worrying about these spurious success paths (via uncaught) errors undermining the tests. Indeed, I caught some bugs doing this. There are a few tests where we run a command that should fail, and then search its output to make sure the failure message is one that we expect. Before, since the `grep` was the last command in the pipeline the exit code of those failing programs was silently ignored. Now with `set -o pipefail` it won't be, and we have to do something so the expected failure doesn't accidentally fail the test. To do that we use `expect` and a new `expectStderr` to check for the exact failing exit code. See the comments on each for why. `grep -q` is replaced with `grepQuiet`, see the comments on that function for why. `grep -v` when we just want the exit code is replaced with `grepInverse, see the comments on that function for why. `grep -q -v` together is, surprise surprise, replaced with `grepQuietInverse`, which is both combined.

2022-06-13nix-shell: restore backwards-compat with old nixpkgsMaximilian Bosch
Basically an attempt to resume fixing #5543 for a breakage introduced earlier[1]. Basically, when evaluating an older `nixpkgs` with `nix-shell` the following error occurs: λ ma27 [~] → nix-shell -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-18.03 -p nix error: anonymous function at /nix/store/zakqwc529rb6xcj8pwixjsxscvlx9fbi-source/pkgs/top-level/default.nix:20:1 called with unexpected argument 'inNixShell' at /nix/store/zakqwc529rb6xcj8pwixjsxscvlx9fbi-source/pkgs/top-level/impure.nix:82:1: 81| 82| import ./. (builtins.removeAttrs args [ "system" "platform" ] // { | ^ 83| inherit config overlays crossSystem; This is a problem because one of the main selling points of Nix is that you can evaluate any old Nix expression and still get the same result (which also means that it *still evaluates*). In fact we're deprecating, but not removing a lot of stuff for that reason such as unquoted URLs[2] or `builtins.toPath`. However this property was essentially thrown away here. The change is rather simple: check if `inNixShell` is specified in the formals of an auto-called function. This means that { inNixShell ? false }: builtins.trace inNixShell (with import <nixpkgs> { }; makeShell { name = "foo"; }) will show `trace: true` while args@{ ... }: builtins.trace args.inNixShell (with import <nixpkgs> { }; makeShell { name = "foo"; }) will throw the following error: error: attribute 'inNixShell' missing This is explicitly needed because the function in `pkgs/top-level/impure.nix` of e.g. NixOS 18.03 has an ellipsis[3], but passes the attribute-set on to another lambda with formals that doesn't have an ellipsis anymore (hence the error from above). This was perhaps a mistake, but we can't fix it anymore. This also means that there's AFAICS no proper way to check if the attr-set that's passed to the Nix code via `EvalState::autoCallFunction` is eventually passed to a lambda with formals where `inNixShell` is missing. However, this fix comes with a certain price. Essentially every `shell.nix` that assumes `inNixShell` to be passed to the formals even without explicitly specifying it would break with this[4]. However I think that this is ugly, but preferable: * Nix 2.3 was declared stable by NixOS up until recently (well, it still is as long as 21.11 is alive), so most people might not have even noticed that feature. * We're talking about a way shorter time-span with this change being in the wild, so the fallout should be smaller IMHO.
