Convert libs to a fixed-point This does break the API of being able to import any lib file and get its libs, however I'm not sure people did this. I made this while exploring being able to swap out docFn with a stub in #2305, to avoid functor performance problems. I don't know if that is going to move forward (or if it is a problem or not,) but after doing all this work figured I'd put it up anyway :) Two notable advantages to this approach: 1. when a lib inherits another lib's functions, it doesn't automatically get put in to the scope of lib 2. when a lib implements a new obscure functions, it doesn't automatically get put in to the scope of lib Using the test script (later in this commit) I got the following diff on the API: + diff master fixed-lib 11764a11765,11766 > .types.defaultFunctor > .types.defaultTypeMerge 11774a11777,11778 > .types.isOptionType > .types.isType 11781a11786 > .types.mkOptionType 11788a11794 > .types.setType 11795a11802 > .types.types This means that this commit _adds_ to the API, however I can't find a way to fix these last remaining discrepancies. At least none are _removed_. Test script (run with nix-repl in the PATH): #!/bin/sh set -eux repl() { suff=${1:-} echo "(import ./lib)$suff" \ | nix-repl 2>&1 } attrs_to_check() { repl "${1:-}" \ | tr ';' $'\n' \ | grep "\.\.\." \ | cut -d' ' -f2 \ | sed -e "s/^/${1:-}./" \ | sort } summ() { repl "${1:-}" \ | tr ' ' $'\n' \ | sort \ | uniq } deep_summ() { suff="${1:-}" depth="${2:-4}" depth=$((depth - 1)) summ "$suff" for attr in $(attrs_to_check "$suff" | grep -v "types.types"); do if [ $depth -eq 0 ]; then summ "$attr" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./" else deep_summ "$attr" "$depth" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./" fi done } ( cd nixpkgs #git add . #git commit -m "Auto-commit, sorry" || true git checkout fixed-lib deep_summ > ../fixed-lib git checkout master deep_summ > ../master ) if diff master fixed-lib; then echo "SHALLOW MATCH!" fi ( cd nixpkgs git checkout fixed-lib repl .types )

/* `overrideDerivation drv f` takes a derivation (i.e., the result
of a call to the builtin function `derivation`) and returns a new
2017-04-19 19:41:28 +00:00
derivation in which the attributes of the original are overridden
according to the function `f`. The function `f` is called with
the original derivation attributes.
`overrideDerivation` allows certain "ad-hoc" customisation
scenarios (e.g. in ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix). For instance,
if you want to "patch" the derivation returned by a package
function in Nixpkgs to build another version than what the
function itself provides, you can do something like this:
mySed = overrideDerivation pkgs.gnused (oldAttrs: {
name = "sed-4.2.2-pre";
src = fetchurl {
url = ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.2.2-pre.tar.bz2;
sha256 = "11nq06d131y4wmf3drm0yk502d2xc6n5qy82cg88rb9nqd2lj41k";
};
patches = [];
});
For another application, see build-support/vm, where this
function is used to build arbitrary derivations inside a QEMU
2015-03-19 15:48:54 +00:00
virtual machine.
Note that in order to preserve evaluation errors, the new derivation's
outPath depends on the old one's, which means that this function cannot
be used in circular situations when the old derivation also depends on the
new one.
You should in general prefer `drv.overrideAttrs` over this function;
see the nixpkgs manual for more information on overriding.
