Flakes are now fetched using an extensible mechanism. Also lots of
other flake cleanups.

error: derivation '/nix/store/klivma7r7h5lndb99f7xxmlh5whyayvg-zlib-1.2.11.drv' has incorrect output '/nix/store/fv98nnx5ykgbq8sqabilkgkbc4169q05-zlib-1.2.11-dev', should be '/nix/store/adm7pilzlj3z5k249s8b4wv3scprhzi1-zlib-1.2.11-dev'

As fromTOML supports \u and \U escapes, bring fromJSON on par. As JSON defaults
to UTF-8 encoding (every JSON parser must support UTF-8), this change parses the
`\u hex hex hex hex` sequence (\u followed by 4 hexadecimal digits) into an
UTF-8 representation.
Add a test to verify correct parsing, using all escape sequences from json.org.

Having a colon in the path may cause issues, and having the hash
function indicated isn't actually necessary. We now verify the path
format in the tests to prevent regressions.

This replaces the '(...)' installable syntax, which is not very
discoverable. The downside is that you can't have multiple expressions
or mix expressions and other installables.
|
|
This is no longer needed.

Ensure enough space in attrset bindings

$TMPDIR isn't necessarily set and would cause this test to fail.

Derivations that want to use recursion should now set
requiredSystemFeatures = [ "recursive-nix" ];
to make the daemon socket appear.
Also, Nix should be configured with "experimental-features =
recursive-nix".

This is an alternative to the IN_NIX_SHELL environment variable,
allowing the expression to adapt itself to nix-shell without
triggering those adaptations when used as a dependency of another
shell.
Closes #3147

Experimental features are now opt-in. There is currently one
experimental feature: "nix-command" (which enables the "nix"
command. This will allow us to merge experimental features more
quickly, without committing to supporting them indefinitely.
Typical usage:
$ nix build --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' nixpkgs#hello
(cherry picked from commit 8e478c234100cf03ea1b777d4bd42a9be7be9e8c,
without the "flakes" feature)

Experimental features are now opt-in. There are currently two
experimental features: "nix-command" (which enables the "nix"
command), and "flakes" (which enables support for flakes). This will
allow us to merge experimental features more quickly, without
committing to supporting them indefinitely.
Typical usage:
$ nix build --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' nixpkgs#hello

A command like
$ nix run nixpkgs#hello
will now build the attribute 'packages.${system}.hello' rather than
'packages.hello'. Note that this does mean that the flake needs to
export an attribute for every system type it supports, and you can't
build on unsupported systems. So 'packages' typically looks like this:
packages = nixpkgs.lib.genAttrs ["x86_64-linux" "i686-linux"] (system: {
hello = ...;
});
The 'checks', 'defaultPackage', 'devShell', 'apps' and 'defaultApp'
outputs similarly are now attrsets that map system types to
derivations/apps. 'nix flake check' checks that the derivations for
all platforms evaluate correctly, but only builds the derivations in
'checks.${system}'.
Fixes #2861. (That issue also talks about access to ~/.config/nixpkgs
and --arg, but I think it's reasonable to say that flakes shouldn't
support those.)
The alternative to attribute selection is to pass the system type as
an argument to the flake's 'outputs' function, e.g. 'outputs = { self,
nixpkgs, system }: ...'. However, that approach would be at odds with
hermetic evaluation and make it impossible to enumerate the packages
provided by a flake.

This is already done by the installer, so no need to do it again.

'nix-daemon' now creates subdirectories for users when they first
connect.
Fixes #509 (CVE-2019-17365).
Should also fix #3127.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also provide a Nixpkgs overlay, memoize Nixpkgs evaluation and fit the
githubFlakes test.
|
|
This is less ambiguous.
|
|
If the user invokes nix with --trace-function-calls it means that they
want to see the trace.

Issue #3076.
