Setting<bool> restrictEval{

If set to `true`, the Nix evaluator will not allow access to any
files outside of the Nix search path (as set via the `NIX_PATH`
environment variable or the `-I` option), or to URIs outside of
[`allowed-uris`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-allowed-uris).
The default is `false`.
)"};
Setting<bool> pureEval{this, false, "pure-eval",
R"(
Pure evaluation mode ensures that the result of Nix expressions is fully determined by explicitly declared inputs, and not influenced by external state:
- File system and network access is restricted to accesses to immutable data only:
- Path literals relative to the home directory like `~/lix` are rejected at parse time.
- Access to absolute paths that did not result from Nix language evaluation is rejected when such paths are given as parameters to builtins like, for example, [`builtins.readFile`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-readFile).
Access is nonetheless allowed to (absolute) paths in the Nix store that are returned by builtins like [`builtins.filterSource`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-filterSource), [`builtins.fetchTarball`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-fetchTarball) and similar.
- Impure fetches such as not specifying a commit ID for `builtins.fetchGit` or not specifying a hash for `builtins.fetchTarball` are rejected.
- In flakes, access to relative paths outside of the root of the flake's source tree (often, a git repository) is rejected.
- The evaluator ignores `NIX_PATH`, `-I` and the `nix-path` setting. Thus, [`builtins.nixPath`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-nixPath) is an empty list.
- The builtins [`builtins.currentSystem`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-currentSystem) and [`builtins.currentTime`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-currentTime) are absent from `builtins`.
- [`builtins.getEnv`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-currentSystem) always returns empty string for any variable.
- [`builtins.storePath`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-storePath) throws an error (Lix may change this, tracking issue: <https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/402>)

By default, Lix allows you to `import` from a derivation, allowing
building at evaluation time. With this option set to false, Lix will
throw an error when evaluating an expression that uses this feature,
allowing users to ensure their evaluation will not require any
builds to take place.
)"};
Setting<Strings> allowedUris{this, {}, "allowed-uris",
R"(
A list of URI prefixes to which access is allowed in restricted
evaluation mode. For example, when set to
`https://github.com/NixOS`, builtin functions such as `fetchGit` are
allowed to access `https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf.git`.
)"};
Setting<bool> traceFunctionCalls{this, false, "trace-function-calls",
R"(
If set to `true`, the Nix evaluator will trace every function call.
Nix will print a log message at the "vomit" level for every function
entrance and function exit.

function-trace exited /nix/store/.../example.nix:226:41 at 1565795253249941684
The `undefined position` means the function call is a builtin.
Use the `contrib/stack-collapse.py` script distributed with the Nix
source code to convert the trace logs in to a format suitable for
`flamegraph.pl`.

This is useful for debugging warnings in third-party Nix code.
)"};
PathsSetting<Paths> replOverlays{this, Paths(), "repl-overlays",
R"(
A list of files containing Nix expressions that can be used to add
default bindings to [`nix
repl`](@docroot@/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-repl.md) sessions.
Each file is called with three arguments:
1. An [attribute set](@docroot@/language/values.html#attribute-set)
containing at least a
[`currentSystem`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-currentSystem)
attribute (this is identical to
[`builtins.currentSystem`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-currentSystem),
except that it's available in
[`pure-eval`](@docroot@/command-ref/conf-file.html#conf-pure-eval)
mode).
2. The top-level bindings produced by the previous `repl-overlays`
value (or the default top-level bindings).
3. The final top-level bindings produced by calling all
`repl-overlays`.
For example, the following file would alias `pkgs` to
`legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem}` (if that attribute is defined):
```nix
info: final: prev:
if prev ? legacyPackages
&& prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem}
then
{
pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
}
else
{ }
```
Here's a more elaborate `repl-overlay`, which provides the following
variables:
- The original, unmodified variables are aliased to `original`.
- `legacyPackages.${system}` (if it exists) or `packages.${system}`
(otherwise) is aliased to `pkgs`.
- All attribute set variables with a `${system}` attribute are
abbreviated in the same manner; e.g. `devShells.${system}` is
shortened to `devShells`.
For example, the following attribute set:
```nix
info: final: attrs: let
# Equivalent to nixpkgs `lib.optionalAttrs`.
optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
if predicate
then attrs
else {};
# If `attrs.${oldName}.${info.currentSystem}` exists, alias `${newName}` to
# it.
collapseRenamed = oldName: newName:
optionalAttrs (builtins.hasAttr oldName attrs
&& builtins.hasAttr info.currentSystem attrs.${oldName})
{
${newName} = attrs.${oldName}.${info.currentSystem};
};
# Alias `attrs.${oldName}.${info.currentSystem} to `${newName}`.
collapse = name: collapseRenamed name name;
# Alias all `attrs` keys with an `${info.currentSystem}` attribute.
collapseAll =
builtins.foldl'
(prev: name: prev // collapse name)
{}
(builtins.attrNames attrs);
in
# Preserve the original bindings as `original`.
(optionalAttrs (! attrs ? original)
{
original = attrs;
})
// (collapseRenamed "packages" "pkgs")
// (collapseRenamed "legacyPackages" "pkgs")
// collapseAll
```
