treewide: use runtimeShell instead of stdenv.shell whenever possible
Whenever we create scripts that are installed to $out, we must use runtimeShell
in order to get the shell that can be executed on the machine we create the
package for. This is relevant for cross-compiling. The only use case for
stdenv.shell are scripts that are executed as part of the build system.
Usages in checkPhase are borderline however to decrease the likelyhood
of people copying the wrong examples, I decided to use runtimeShell as well.

appimageTools: init
The appimageTools attrset contains utilities to prevent
the usage of appimage-run to package AppImages, like done/attempted
in #49370 and #53156.

This has the advantage of allowing for per-package environment changes,
and extracts into the store instead of the users home directory.

The package list was extracted into appimageTools to prevent
duplication.

29c320f9a6 doc: Include function doc generation in Makefile
Since #53055 was merged the Makefile for the manual could not be run
correctly as the generated function documentation was included, but
not actually generated.

This adds the necessary generation step by first building the XML file
containing function locations and preserving its store path in a
variable, which is then used both for linking of the locations file
and as a build input for the function docs generator.

This fixes #55014

a1a5ea5943 stdenv: make checkInputs native
We can't run the checkPhase when build != host, so we may as well make

manual: limit text width
Currently the manual scales to the view port of the browser.
This leads to an unreadable layout and I found myself
reading the xml source instead.
The optimal width would be around 50 characters per line.
Since we have code listings also in the manual I relaxed
this limit a bit towards 70 characters per line.

To add another file to the generated docs, both

6206a342e0 mkl: include Intel's libiomp.so in the MKL RPM unpack
Since Intel's default openmp implementation is available in the same src
tarball, we can just include it in the package. This means that `mkl` now "just
works" without any environment variables, fragile setup-hooks, or forced
propagation.

Since the openmp implementation is only needed at runtime (and for test cases),
users can substitute a different one if they prefer by exporting it with
`LD_PRELOAD`, which is how Intel recommends handling this. If they do not do so,
`libiomp.so` lives next to `libmkl_rt.so` and thus will be in the RPATH as a
sane default.

Since this still comes from the same src tarball, we can ship it without losing
the fixed-output derivation; likewise, since Hydra is not building or caching
these, shipping these proprietary packages costs no bandwidth for the nix
community.

To make updating large attribute sets faster, the update scripts

- The string passed to updateScript needs to be a path to an executable file.
- The updateScript can also be a list: the tail elements will then be passed
  to the head as command line arguments.

I also added the recent changes around being able to use autoPatchelf

baf0703010 pythonPackages.pythondaemon: rename to pythonPackages.python-daemon
This commit renames the pythondaemon module to match its module name, github
name, and pypi name, which makes it easier to find and reference. In order to
avoid breaking any external users, I've left an alias with a deprecated warning.

dovecot, opensmtpd: add link to test in meta.tests
Rationale
---------

Currently, tests are hard to discover. For instance, someone updating
`dovecot` might not notice that the interaction of `dovecot` with
`opensmtpd` is handled in the `opensmtpd.nix` test.

And even for someone updating `opensmtpd`, it requires manual work to go
check in `nixos/tests` whether there is actually a test, especially
given not so many packages in `nixpkgs` have tests and this is thus most
of the time useless.

Finally, for the reviewer, it is much easier to check that the “Tested
via one or more NixOS test(s)” has been checked if the file modified
already includes the list of relevant tests.

Implementation
--------------

Currently, this commit only adds the metadata in the package. Each
element of the `meta.tests` attribute is a derivation that, when it
builds successfully, means the test has passed (ie. following the same
convention as NixOS tests).

Future Work
-----------

In the future, the tools could be made aware of this `meta.tests`
attribute, and for instance a `--with-tests` could be added to
`nix-build` so that it also builds all the tests. Or a `--without-tests`
to build without all the tests. @Profpatsch described in his NixCon talk
such systems.

Another thing that would help in the future would be the possibility to
reasonably easily have cross-derivation nix tests without the whole
NixOS VM stack. @7c6f434c already proposed such a system.

This RFC currently handles none of these concerns. Only the addition of
`meta.tests` as metadata to be used by maintainers to remember to run
relevant tests.

c90051c53d clarifying name arg determines vim command name
The `name` arg of `vim_configurable.customize` does not only determine
the package name, but also the name of the command/ executable to be
called.
In my opinion this is not documented properly and finding that out took

them to the docs.

Also updated the metas to be more consistent with the most frequently used

d1e46df24b fixup: drop comment about config behaving differently from buildImage 2018-09-27 08:14:04 -04:00
Graham Christensen
4fe9006190 dockerTools.buildLayeredImage: init
Create a many-layered Docker Image.

Implements much less than buildImage:

 - Doesn't support specific uids/gids
 - Doesn't support runninng commands after building
 - Doesn't require qemu
 - Doesn't create mutable copies of the files in the path
 - Doesn't support parent images

If you want those feature, I recommend using buildLayeredImage as an
input to buildImage.

Notably, it does support:

 - Caching low level, common paths based on a graph traversial
   algorithm, see referencesByPopularity in
   0a80233487993256e811f566b1c80a40394c03d6
 - Configurable number of layers. If you're not using AUFS or not
   extending the image, you can specify a larger number of layers at
   build time:

       pkgs.dockerTools.buildLayeredImage {
         name = "hello";
         maxLayers = 128;
         config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ];
       };

 - Parallelized creation of the layers, improving build speed.
 - The contents of the image includes the closure of the configuration,
   so you don't have to specify paths in contents and config.

   With buildImage, paths referred to by the config were not included
   automatically in the image. Thus, if you wanted to call Git, you
   had to specify it twice:

       pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage {
         name = "hello";
         contents = [ pkgs.gitFull ];
         config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ];
       };

   buildLayeredImage on the other hand includes the runtime closure of
   the config when calculating the contents of the image:

       pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage {
         name = "hello";
         config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ];
       };

Minor Problems

 - If any of the store paths change, every layer will be rebuilt in
   the nix-build. However, beacuse the layers are bit-for-bit
   reproducable, when these images are loaded in to Docker they will
   match existing layers and not be imported or uploaded twice.

Common Questions

 - Aren't Docker layers ordered?

   No. People who have used a Dockerfile before assume Docker's
   Layers are inherently ordered. However, this is not true -- Docker
   layers are content-addressable and are not explicitly layered until
   they are composed in to an Image.

 - What happens if I have more than maxLayers of store paths?

   The first (maxLayers-2) most "popular" paths will have their own
   individual layers, then layer #(maxLayers-1) will contain all the
   remaining "unpopular" paths, and finally layer #(maxLayers) will
   contain the Image configuration.

lib: Deprecate `overrideScope` in lieu of `overrideScope'` taking arguments in the conventional order
2018-09-24 18:04:18 -04:00

b9dce11712 lib: Make overrideScope' which takes arguments in the conventional order
The `overrideScope` bound by `makeScope` (via special `callPackage`)
took an override in the form `super: self { … }`. But this is
dangerously close to the `self: super { … }` form used by *everything*
else, even other definitions of `overrideScope`! Since that
implementation did not even share any code either until I changed it
recently in 3cf43547f4, this inconsistency
is almost certainly an oversight and not intentional.

Unfortunately, just as the inconstency is hard to debug if one just
assumes the conventional order, any sudden fix would break existing
overrides in the same hard-to-debug way. So instead of changing the
definition a new `overrideScope'` with the conventional order is added,
and old `overrideScope` deprecated with a warning saying to use
`overrideScope'` instead. That will hopefully get people to stop using
`overrideScope`, freeing our hand to change or remove it in the future.

a32d7e0c74 dockerTools.buildImage: support impure dates
Because dates are an impurity, by default buildImage will use a static
date of one second past the UNIX Epoch. This can be a bit frustrating
when listing docker images in the CLI:

    $ docker image list
    REPOSITORY   TAG      IMAGE ID       CREATED        SIZE
    hello        latest   08c791c7846e   48 years ago   25.2MB

If you want to trade the purity for a better user experience, you can
set created to now.

    pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage {
      name = "hello";
      tag = "latest";
      created = "now";
      contents = pkgs.hello;

      config.Cmd = [ "/bin/hello" ];
    }

and now the Docker CLI will display a reasonable date and sort the
images as expected:

    $ docker image list
    REPOSITORY   TAG      IMAGE ID       CREATED              SIZE
    hello        latest   de2bf4786de6   About a minute ago   25.2MB

Detailed instructions how to activate this IBus engine on your desktop
can be found in the upstream docs: https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/documentation.html

A simple VM with the Gnome3 desktop and activated `ibus' looks like
this:

```nix

    services.xserver = {
      enable = true;
      desktopManager.gnome3.enable = true;
      desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;

953199fd82 vim-plugins: rewrite updater
A new python script has been added to replace the aged viml-based
updater. The new updater has the following advantages:

- use rss feeds to check for updates quicker
- parallel downloads & better caching
- uses proper override mechanism instead of text substitution
- update generated files in-place instead of having to insert updated plugins manually

Automatically reading `dependencies` from the plugins directory has been
not re-implemented.
This has been mostly been used by Mark Weber's plugins, which seem to
no longer receive regular updates.
This could be implemented in future as required.

weechat: 2.1 -> 2.2; improve package configuration
This aims to make the `weechat` package even more configurable. It
allows to specify scripts and commands using the `configure` function
inside a `weechat.override` expression.

The package can be configured like this:

```
with import <nixpkgs> { };
weechat.override {
  plugins = { availablePlugins, ... }: {
    plugins = builtins.attrValues availablePlugins;

    init = ''
      /set foo bar
      /server add freenode chat.freenode.org
    '';

    scripts = [ "/path/to/script.py" ];
  };
}
```

All commands are passed to `weechat --run-command "/set foo bar;/server ..."`.

The `plugins' attribute is not necessarily required anymore, if it's
sufficient to add `init' commands, the `plugins' will be
`builtins.attrValues availablePlugins' by default.

Additionally the result contains `weechat` and `weechat-headless`
(introduced in WeeChat 2.1) now.

eb0207f132 citrix_receiver: document installation pitfalls and extraCerts (#44635)
Since #44522 it's possible to specify custom certificates for the Citrix
receiver. As it took me some time to create a proper setup Citrix can
behave fairly unexpected.

I mostly covered two aspects:

* Don't install Citrix with `nix run`: when `citrix.desktop` is linked
  to $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, it's possible to start a session directly from the
  browser when loading `.ica` files which makes the usage *way* easier.

* It's possible to add custom certificates using the Citrix wrapper. A
  new store path with the original derivation and the certificates will be
  created and therefore no rebuild of the package is needed when adding
  new certs.

42e3727aa2 python docs: improve override example
1. Use the same approach like in the overlay example:
   Override `python` instead of `pythonPackages` so that
   `python.pkgs` refers to the new package set like `pythonPackages`.

   This also fixes a bug in the original example where
   `pkgs.fetchgit` was not in scope.

   Add an extra example to illustrate how to override just a
   package set.

2. Fix mix-up between `super` and `self` in the explanation text.
   Also, simplify the explanation.

bc0421c4cf doc: Adds xml fixing script. (see previous and next commits)
This script is used to automatically fix issues within xml documentation
files.

The script is *for now* intended to be used ad-hoc, and the commits to
be examined.

A future discussion will define whether:

  * This commit and scripts are kept.
  * The script is extended for common use.

The biggest issue right now with the script is that it *could* in theory
destroy a valid space-less varlistentry.

The script could, in practical use, be changed and extended to normalize
some parts of the XML files, mainly:

  * A common quoting style for attributes
  * Fix-up some weird formatting automatically that xmlformat doesn't

treewide: rename version attributes
As suggested in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/39416#discussion_r183845745
the versioning attributes in `lib` should be consistent to
`nixos/version` which implicates the following changes:

* `lib.trivial.version` -> `lib.trivial.release`
* `lib.trivial.suffix` -> `lib.trivial.versionSuffix`
* `lib.nixpkgsVersion` -> `lib.version`

As `lib.nixpkgsVersion` is referenced several times in `NixOS/nixpkgs`,
`NixOS/nix` and probably several user's setups. As the rename will cause
a notable impact it's better to keep `lib.nixpkgsVersion` as alias with
a warning yielded by `builtins.trace`.

87651b32fe stdenv: steal checkInputs from buildPythonPackage
Note that a bunch of non-python packages use this attribute already.
Some of those are clearly unaware of the fact that this attribute does
not exists in stdenv because they define it but don't to add it to
their `bulidInputs` :)

Also note that I use `buildInputs` here and only handle regular
builds because python and haskell builders do it this way and I'm not
sure how to properly handle the cross-compilation case.

perlPackages: Add cross-compilation support.
This involved:

* Installing miniperl as $dev/bin/perl
* Setting miniperl to take INC from
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}cross_perl/${version} as well as
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}/${version}/${runtimeArch}, in that
  order. miniperl taking from runtimeArch is not really correct, but
  it works in some pure-perl cases (e.g. Config.pm) and can be
  overridden with the cross_perl variant.
* Installing perl-cross's stubs into
  $dev/lib/perl5/cross_perl/${version}
* Patching MakeMaker.pm to gracefully degrade (very slightly) if B.pm
  can't be loaded, which it can't in cross-compilation.
* Passing the right build-time and runtime perls to Makefile.PL

9c50ae6898 lib, treewide: Add missing MIPS arches, and fix existing usage
Existing "mips64el" should be "mipsel".

This is just the barest minimum so that nixpkgs can recognize them as
systems - although required for building individual derivations onto
MIPS boards, it is not sufficient if you want to actually build nixos on
those targets

setup-hooks: Add autoPatchelfHook
I originally wrote this for packaging proprietary games in Vuizvui[1]
but I thought it would be generally useful as we have a fair amount of
proprietary software lurking around in nixpkgs, which are a bit tedious
to maintain, especially when the library dependencies change after an
update.

So this setup hook searches for all ELF executables and libraries in the
resulting output paths after install phase and uses patchelf to set the
RPATH and interpreter according to what dependencies are available
inside the builder.

For example consider something like this:

stdenv.mkDerivation {
  ...
  nativeBuildInputs = [ autoPatchelfHook ];
  buildInputs = [ mesa zlib ];
  ...
}

Whenever for example an executable requires mesa or zlib, the RPATH will
automatically be set to the lib dir of the corresponding dependency.

If the library dependency is required at runtime, an attribute called
runtimeDependencies can be used to list dependencies that are added to
all executables that are discovered unconditionally.

Beside this, it also makes initial packaging of proprietary software
easier, because one no longer has to manually figure out the
dependencies in the first place.

not checking during cross builds when none is given.

5f8cf0048e rust: update cargo builder to fetch registry dynamically
The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.

Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.

This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.

Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).

This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

345b35c48a Python: add buildPythonPackage.overridePythonPackage method.
This allows one to always override the call to `buildPythonPackage`.

In the following example we create an environment where we have the `blaze` package using an older version of `pandas`. We override first the Python interpreter and pass `packageOverrides` which contains the overrides for packages in
the package set.

```
with import <nixpkgs> {};

(let
  python = let
    packageOverrides = self: super: {

f37972588d ruby docs: fix text and example (#28006)
1. 'wrapper' has been renamed to 'wrappedRuby', so use this instead.
2. mkDerivation isn't called with a 'src' attribute, so skip the 'unpackPhase' to avoid an error.
3. Simplify the build command. 'mkdir' and 'patchShebangs' don't need to be called explicitly.

7723d9935f fzf: add script for finding 'share' folder
So that helper scripts can be easily sourced in interactive shell
configuration. `autojump` package was already present and had the same
requirements for findind a `share` folders, so I took an inspiration
there.

I beleive this is a better alternative to:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058

Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to
prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.

I've seen that mistake at least a few times already, e.g.

It might perhaps seem counter-intuitive if one doesn't know nixpkgs well.

manual: add "declarative package management" section
This section gives some details on how to setup an "environment"
without having to go through NixOS (although it could be used there
too). I’ve tried to make it straightforward and have a kind of
"tutorial" feel. Not sure if that’s appropriate for the manual, so any
recommended changes would be helpful.
