2007-09-11* Test the impureEnvVars feature.Eelco Dolstra
2007-09-04* nix-push / generate-patches: bzip the manifest.Eelco Dolstra
2007-08-28* Doh! Broken test.Eelco Dolstra
2007-08-28* Test case to show that parallel builds of different fixed-outputEelco Dolstra
derivations that produce the same output path don't work properly wrt locking. This happens a lot in the build farm when fetchurl derivations downloading the same file on different platforms are executed in parallel and then copied back to the main machine.
2007-08-18primop functions listToAttrs (+test), __isAttrs, __trace addedMarc Weber
new configuration style proposal in lib/default-unstable.nix
2007-08-14* Hopefully this fixes the test on FreeBSD.Eelco Dolstra
2007-08-13* A test for the nix-worker.Eelco Dolstra
2007-08-13* Fix the tests.Eelco Dolstra
2007-05-15* Allow empty argument lists in function definitions (e.g., `{}:Eelco Dolstra
bla'). Also allow trailing commas (`{x, y,}: ...') as a unintented consequence. Hopefully the reduce/reduce conflict won't cause any problems.
2007-02-21* Don't use $SHELL.Eelco Dolstra
2007-01-29New primitives:Eelco Dolstra
* `sub' to subtract two numbers. * `stringLength' to get the length of a string. * `substring' to get a substring of a string. These should be enough to allow most string operations to be expressed.
2007-01-15* builtins.filterSource: pass the type of the file ("regular",Eelco Dolstra
"directory", "symlink") as the second argument to the filter predicate.
2007-01-14* Don't forget the .flags files.Eelco Dolstra
2007-01-14* Option --argstr for passing string arguments easily. (NIX-75)Eelco Dolstra
2007-01-13* Canonicalise ASTs in `nix-instantiate --eval': remove positionEelco Dolstra
info, sort attribute sets.
2006-12-12* New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter filesEelco Dolstra
from a source directory. All files for which a predicate function returns true are copied to the store. Typical example is to leave out the .svn directory: stdenv.mkDerivation { ... src = builtins.filterSource (path: baseNameOf (toString path) != ".svn") ./source-dir; # as opposed to # src = ./source-dir; } This is important because the .svn directory influences the hash in a rather unpredictable and variable way.
2006-12-12* New built-in function `builtins.attrNames' that returns theEelco Dolstra
names of the attributes in an attribute set.
2006-12-02* Clear NIX_REMOTE in the tests.Eelco Dolstra
2006-10-19* Checks for allowedReferences and some other features.Eelco Dolstra
* Use nix-build in a test.
2006-10-17* Another test.Eelco Dolstra
2006-10-17* Fix the tests wrt the AST changes, i.e., Str(s) -> Str(s, []), andEelco Dolstra
the semantic changes.
2006-10-11* Removed URIs from the evaluator (NIX-66). They are now just anotherEelco Dolstra
kind of notation for strings.
2006-10-03* toFile: added an additional argument to specify the store pathEelco Dolstra
suffix, e.g., `builtins.toFile "builder.sh" "..."'. * toFile: handle references to other files correctly.
2006-10-02* Finally, a real "let" syntax: `let x = ...; ... z = ...; in ...'.Eelco Dolstra
2006-09-24* Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.Eelco Dolstra
* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24* Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.Eelco Dolstra
2006-09-24* lessThan primitive for integer comparison.Eelco Dolstra
2006-09-22* Builtin function `add' to add integers.Eelco Dolstra
* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix.
2006-09-22* Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.Eelco Dolstra
With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).
2006-09-22* Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail ofEelco Dolstra
list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22* New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check forEelco Dolstra
attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)
2006-09-21* `nix-install-package --url': install from a URL (NIX-12).Eelco Dolstra
* `nix-install-package --help' (NIX-9). * `nix-install-package --non-interactive': don't prompt or pause. * Tests for nix-install-package. * Security fixes: filter the values obtained from the nixpkg.
2006-09-01* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the storeEelco Dolstra
and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01* Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (TooEelco Dolstra
bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-09-01* Fix race condition in the test.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-30* Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-30* TDD: == should do a deep equality test, i.e., it should strictlyEelco Dolstra
evaluate its arguments.
2006-08-29* Backwards compatibility test for ~.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-24* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression toEelco Dolstra
an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-23* New primop: abort "error message".Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-23* A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containingEelco Dolstra
all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
2006-08-22* Urgh (see NIX-56).Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-17* Distribute *.exp.xml.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-17* Test for `nix-instantiate --eval-only --xml'.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-16* Meh.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-16* A test for NIX-53.Eelco Dolstra
2006-07-24* New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a functionEelco Dolstra
argument has a valid value, i.e., is in a certain domain. E.g., { foo : [true false] , bar : ["a" "b" "c"] }: ... This previously could be done using assertions, but domain checks will allow the buildfarm to automatically extract the configuration space from functions.
2006-07-24* `touch' might not be in $PATH.Eelco Dolstra
2006-07-24* Tests for domain checks.Eelco Dolstra
2006-07-24* Refactoring to support domain checks.Eelco Dolstra
