This helps us instruct rustc to build tests instead of binaries. The
actual build will then ONLY produce test executables. This is a first
step towards having rust crate tests within nixpkgs.
We default back to only a single output in test cases since that is the
only reasonable thing to do here.
Producing libraries or binaries in addition to tests would theoretically
be feasible but usually generates different dependency trees. It is very
common to have some libraries in `[dev-depdendencies]` within Cargo.toml
just for your tests. To not start mixing things up going with a
dedicated derivation for the test build sounds like the best choice for
now.
To use this you must provide a proper test dependency chain to
`buildRustCrate` (as you would usually do with your non-test inputs).
And then set the `buildTests` attribute to `true`. The derivation will
then contain all tests that were built in `$out/tests`. All common test
patterns and directories should be supported and tested by this change.
Below is an example how you would run a single test from the derivation.
This commit contains some more examples in the `buildRustCrateTests`
attribute set that might be helpful.
```
let
drv = buildRustCrate {
…
buildTests true;
};
in runCommand "test-my-crate" {} ''
touch $out
exec ${drv}/tests/my-test
''
```
While unifying most of the lib function calls I accidentially changed
the filterSource functions as well. Since there were no tests I ended
up forgetting about this case (even thought I ran into it…).
when tar'ing store paths into layered archives when building layered
images, don't use the absolute nix store path so that tar won't complain
if something new is added to the nix store
when building the final docker image, ignore any file changes tar
detects in the layers. they are all immutable and the only thing that
might change is the number of hard links due to store optimization
Most stdenv wrappers already work like this -- it allows greater
customisation. We just have to be careful to remove arguments we're
using that shouldn't be passed to stdenv. I've been conservative
here, because fetchcargo checksums shouldn't change lightly.
Before, every docker image had three extra layers:
1. A `closure` layer which is an internal implementation detail of
calculating the closure of the container
2. a `name-config.json` layer which is the images' run-time
configuration, and has no business being *in* the image as a layer.
3. a "bulk-layers" layer which is again and implementation detail
around collecting the image's closure.
None of these layers need to be in the final product.
This allows things like hooks other than postInstall to be passed
through to mkDerivation, which is very useful when customising or
debugging a package.
This reduces the size of Hello World [1] from 3.06 MiB to 678 KiB.
[1] As measured by nix-shell -p 'writers.writeHaskellBin "hello" {} "main = putStrLn \"hello\""' --run 'ls -l `which hello`'
The previous lines were only different in the kind of dependencies but
otherwise exactly the same. It makes the entire thing a bit more
readable by moving this into a function that takes care of this.
We can get rid of a bunch of workarounds that were in the build script
before by just passing on the `crateBin` attribute.
Before we converted the list of attributes to a string only to convert
it back in bash during the build phase. We can do the entire looping
through builds in Nix and thus need no conversion and parsing of
attributes over and over again.
The big part that still remains bash is the heuristic that cargo
introduced and that we can't do at eval time.
That code had been in the derivation for a while but no explanation was
given why that is needed. It might be helpful to our future selfs to
document why things are done the way they are.
The expression is already long and confusing enough without the color
stuff sprinkled in. Moving it to a dedicated file makes sense.
I switched a bit of the color support code to pure Nix since there
wasn't much point in doing that in bash while we can just do it in Nix.
We can just use `lib` instead of `builtins` in all cases but the
`hashString` case. Also changed a few lines to make use of some optional
helpers from lib.
Adding empty variables can lead to this problem:

Where the diff is to highlight the problem: we don't have a valid value
for GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH_1_0 or GRL_PLUGIN_PATH, and instead of
passing the empy string, the empty string gets unquoted somewhere, so we
end up passing no arguments, thus the parser in wrapProgram takes
--prefix as the argument of GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH_1_0, and then
GI_TYPELIB_PATH is missing it's --prefix so wrapProgram complains/dies.
The easiest change is to not add empty arguments to the wrapper
When updating to cpio-2.13 in fe758f5fa3,
a patch from SUSE was dropped. This patch was intended to resolve
CVE-2015-1197, and introduced the '--extract-over-symlink' option to
disable its own effects.
The CVE-2015-1197 was fixed in cpio-2.13 release[1] by other means,
making this patch useless.
Given that this patch is no longer used, we do not need to disable its
effects anymore with the `--extract-over-symlink` argument switch.
