Initially https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82897 prevented
non-visible options from being rendered in the manual, but
visible-but-internal options were still being recursed into. This fixes
this, aligning the recurse condition here with the one in
make-options-doc/default.nix
split comes from builtins, not lib.
error: attribute 'split' missing, at /nix/path/nixpkgs/lib/sources.nix:4:4
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
I think there was a silent (i.e. semantic) merge conflict between PR #101139 and
PR #100456. This commit should fix the error, which manifests as follows:
error: undefined variable 'boolToString' at /home/kkini/src/nixpkgs/lib/types.nix:552:42
Nix can perform static scope checking, but whenever code is inside
a `with` expression, the analysis breaks down, because it can't
know statically what's in the attribute set whose attributes were
brought into scope. In those cases, Nix has to assume that
everything works out.
Except it doesnt. Removing `with` from lib/ revealed an undefined
variable in an error message.
If that doesn't convince you that we're better off without `with`,
I can tell you that this PR results in a 3% evaluation performance
improvement because Nix can look up local variables by index.
This adds up with applications like the module system.
Furthermore, removing `with` makes the binding site of each
variable obvious, which helps with comprehension.
Add a friendly function to easily return a flattened list of files
within a directory.
This is useful if you want to easily iterate or concatSep the list of
files all found within a directory.
(i.e. when constructing Java's CLASSPATH)
Style improvements

Previously if `_file` was specified by a module:
trace: warning: The type `types.string' of option `foo' defined in `/nix/store/yxhm2il5yrb92fldgriw0wyqh2kk9qyc-bug.nix' is deprecated. See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/66346 for better alternative types.
With this change:
trace: warning: The type `types.string' of option `foo' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/bug.nix' is deprecated. See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/66346 for better alternative types.
If multiple definitions are passed, this evaluates them all as if they
were the only one, for a better error message. In particular this won't
show module-internal properties like `_type = "override"` and co.
