2012-04-14nix-channel improvementsEelco Dolstra
"nix-channel --add" now accepts a second argument: the channel name. This allows channels to have a nicer name than (say) nixpkgs_unstable. If no name is given, it defaults to the last component of the URL (with "-unstable" or "-stable" removed). Also, channels are now stored in a profile (/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/$USER/channels). One advantage of this is that it allows rollbacks (e.g. if "nix-channel --update" gives an undesirable update).
2012-03-19Replace "make check" with "make installcheck"Eelco Dolstra
Ensuring that the tests work from the build tree requires a growing number of nasty hacks. The tests also don't verify that the installed Nix actually works. Thus, the tests now require "make install" to have been run.
2012-03-18Drop the externals directoryEelco Dolstra
Nix now requires SQLite and bzip2 to be pre-installed. SQLite is detected using pkg-config. We required DBD::SQLite anyway, so depending on SQLite is not a big problem. The --with-bzip2, --with-openssl and --with-sqlite flags are gone.
2012-03-12Fix testsEelco Dolstra
2012-01-26* Add a test for importing derivations.Eelco Dolstra
2012-01-19* Add a test case for comparing derivations.Eelco Dolstra
2012-01-11tests: Run `download-using-manifests' via libtool so that dlopening works.Ludovic Courtès
2012-01-04* Check whether the outputName attribute works.Eelco Dolstra
2012-01-03* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2012-01-03* FreeBSD tar defaults to the tape device instead of stdout.Eelco Dolstra
2012-01-03* Add a test for nix-channel.Eelco Dolstra
* Refactor the nix-channel unpacker a bit.
2012-01-03* Refactoring: Get rid of a few subdirectories in corepkgs/, and someEelco Dolstra
other simplifications. * Use <nix/...> to locate the corepkgs. This allows them to be overriden through $NIX_PATH. * Use bash's pipefail option in the NAR builder so that we don't need to create a temporary file.
2011-12-30* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-21* The ‘foo.drvPath’ feature was already broken in read-only mode.Eelco Dolstra
Since it's rarely used and fixing it is too much work right now, just document it.
2011-12-21Make the reference cycle in the cyclic outputs test indirectShea Levy
2011-12-21* Add a test for unsafeDiscardOutputDependency. Not really related toEelco Dolstra
multiple outputs, but good to have anyway.
2011-12-21* Add a test for referring to another derivation's ‘drvPath’. ThisEelco Dolstra
currently fails in read-only mode.
2011-12-21* Add some accidentally committed files.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-20* Doing a GC after building a derivation with cyclic outputs currentlyEelco Dolstra
segfaults.
2011-12-20* Add a (currently failing) test that checks whether mutuallyEelco Dolstra
recursive outputs are properly rejected. * Add a (also failing) test for "nix-build -A <output-name>".
2011-12-20* Refactor a bit so that more tests can be added.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-16* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-14* Oops, the daemon test wasn't actually using the daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-01* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-buildEelco Dolstra
and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-11-25* Fix race.Eelco Dolstra
2011-11-06Fix stupid typo in multiple outputs testShea Levy
2011-11-06The nixinstantiate and nixstore env vars are no longer set in common.shShea Levy
2011-11-06Merge from trunkShea Levy
2011-11-05* Fix race condition in the test.Eelco Dolstra
2011-10-11* Add a test for nix-copy-closure.Eelco Dolstra
2011-10-11* Move the remote building test from the NixOS tree to the Nix tree.Eelco Dolstra
2011-10-11* Work around a race condition starting the Nix daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2011-10-10* Refactoring: remove unnecessary variables from the tests.Eelco Dolstra
2011-10-10* Install NixManifest.pm, NixConfig.pm and GeneratePatches.pm underEelco Dolstra
the Nix:: namespace.
2011-09-14Add a test for multiple outputsShea Levy
This currently fails. Yay test-driven development!
2011-08-08* On FreeBSD, ‘touch’ is not in the test $PATH, so don't use it.Eelco Dolstra
2011-08-06* Add the Nix corepkgs to the end of the search path. This makes itEelco Dolstra
possible for other Nix expressions to use corepkgs (mostly useful for the buildenv function).
2011-08-06* Allow redirections in search path entries. E.g. if you have aEelco Dolstra
directory /home/eelco/src/stdenv-updates that you want to use as the directory for import such as with (import <nixpkgs> { }); then you can say $ nix-build -I nixpkgs=/home/eelco/src/stdenv-updates
2011-08-06* Add lang/dir* to the distribution.Eelco Dolstra
2011-08-06* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angleEelco Dolstra
brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown.
2011-07-20* Added a test that make sure that users cannot registerEelco Dolstra
specially-crafted derivations that produce output paths belonging to other derivations. This could be used to inject malware into the store.
2011-07-20* Refactoring.Eelco Dolstra
2011-07-13* Allow attribute names to be strings. Based on theEelco Dolstra
allow-arbitrary-strinsg-in-names patch by Marc Weber.
2011-07-13* Allow a default value in attribute selection by writingEelco Dolstra
x.y.z or default (as originally proposed in https://mail.cs.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2009-September/002989.html). For instance, an expression like stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args can now be written as args.features.ckSched or false
2011-07-06* Test case.Eelco Dolstra
2011-06-30Add support for the `build-timeout' and `--timeout' options.Ludovic Courtès
2011-02-09* Urgh, FreeBSD doesn't have a "seq" command.Eelco Dolstra
2011-01-14* builtins.substring: if "start" is beyond the end of the string,Eelco Dolstra
return the empty string.
2010-12-05* Use CamelCase for the Perl modules.Eelco Dolstra
2010-12-05* Add a script `nix-generate-patches'.Eelco Dolstra
* Fix the binary patching test.
