1b962fc720 * @-patterns as in Haskell. For instance, in a function definition
f = args @ {x, y, z}: ...;

  `args' refers to the argument as a whole, which is further
  pattern-matched against the attribute set pattern {x, y, z}.

efe4b690ae * Refactoring: combine functions that take an attribute set and
functions that take a single argument (plain lambdas) into one AST
  node (Function) that contains a Pattern node describing the
  arguments.  Current patterns are single lazy arguments (VarPat) and
  matching against an attribute set (AttrsPat).

  This refactoring allows other kinds of patterns to be added easily,
  such as Haskell-style @-patterns, or list pattern matching.

c03b729319 * Increase the sleep periods a bit to make the test less likely to
fail on slow machines.  Of course it would be better if this test
  wasn't timing dependent...

3c92ea399d * Make nix-env --dry-run print the paths to be substituted correctly
again.  (After the previous substituter mechanism refactoring I
  didn't update the code that obtains the references of substitutable
  paths.)  This required some refactoring: the substituter programs
  are now kept running and receive/respond to info requests via
  stdin/stdout.

7cd88b1dec * Generalised the dependencyClosure primop to builtins.genericClosure,
which is hopefully more useful.
* New primops: length, mul, div.

d567baabbd * Export the nix-env derivation name parsing and version comparison
logic through the `parseDrvName' and `compareVersions' primops.
  This will allow expressions to easily check whether some dependency
  is a specific needed version or falls in some version range.  See
  tests/lang/eval-okay-versions.nix for examples.

Eelco Dolstra
485d71c54a * Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility: echo -n foo' suddenly prints -n foo'
instead of `foo' without a newline (with /bin/sh, not /bin/bash,
  even though /bin/sh is also bash...).  So use printf instead.

b42ef9c054 * Syntax to escape '', ${. 2007-12-06 10:20:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
6d6c68c0d2 * Added a new kind of multi-line string literal delimited by two
single quotes.  Example (from NixOS):

    job = ''
      start on network-interfaces

      start script

        rm -f /var/run/opengl-driver
        ${if videoDriver == "nvidia"        
          then "ln -sf ${nvidiaDrivers} /var/run/opengl-driver"
          else if cfg.driSupport
          then "ln -sf ${mesa} /var/run/opengl-driver"
          else ""
        }

        rm -f /var/log/slim.log

      end script
    '';

  This style has two big advantages:

  - \, ' and " aren't special, only '' and ${.  So you get a lot less
    escaping in shell scripts / configuration files in Nixpkgs/NixOS.
    The delimiter '' is rare in scripts (and can usually be written as
    "").  ${ is also fairly rare.

    Other delimiters such as <<...>>, {{...}} and <|...|> were also
    considered but this one appears to have the fewest drawbacks
    (thanks Martin).

  - Indentation is intelligently stripped so that multi-line strings
    can follow the nesting structure of the containing Nix
    expression.  E.g. in the example above 6 spaces are stripped from
    the start of each line.  This prevents unnecessary indentation in
    generated files (which sometimes even breaks things).

  See tests/lang/eval-okay-ind-string.nix for some examples.

633518628f * nix-env -e: support uninstalling by path, so that one can say
$ nix-env -e $(which firefox)

  or

    $ nix-env -e /nix/store/nywzlygrkfcgz7dfmhm5xixlx1l0m60v-pan-0.132

* nix-env -i: if an argument contains a slash anywhere, treat it as a
  path and follow it through symlinks into the Nix store.  This allows
  things like

    $ nix-build -A firefox
    $ nix-env -i ./result

* nix-env -q/-i/-e: don't complain when the `*' selector doesn't match
  anything.  In particular, `nix-env -q \*' doesn't fail anymore on an
  empty profile.

455a7b9577 * Test case to show that parallel builds of different fixed-output
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.

ca00aa1171 * Allow empty argument lists in function definitions (e.g., `{}:
bla').  Also allow trailing commas (`{x, y,}: ...') as a unintented
  consequence.  Hopefully the reduce/reduce conflict won't cause any
  problems.

7349bd0176 New primitives:
* `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.

  predicate.

a3e6415ba8 * New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter files
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.
