Previously, when lock file contained invalid JSON nix reported a parser
error without specifying the file it came from.
This change adds flake.lock file path to the error message to avoid
confusion.
(cherry picked from commit e3873aa1a0)
For example, instead of doing
#include "nix/store-config.hh"
#include "nix/derived-path.hh"
Now do
#include "nix/store/config.hh"
#include "nix/store/derived-path.hh"
This was originally planned in the issue, and also recent requested by
Eelco.
Most of the change is purely mechanical. There is just one small
additional issue. See how, in the example above, we took this
opportunity to also turn `<comp>-config.hh` into `<comp>/config.hh`.
Well, there was already a `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`. Even though there
is not a public configuration header for libutil (which also would be
called `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`) that's still confusing, To avoid any
such confusion, we renamed that to `nix/util/configuration.{cc,hh}`.
Finally, note that the libflake headers already did this, so we didn't
need to do anything to them. We wouldn't want to mistakenly get
`nix/flake/flake/flake.hh`!
Progress on #7876
(cherry picked from commit cc24766fa6)
The short answer for why we need to do this is so we can consistently do
`#include "nix/..."`. Without this change, there are ways to still make
that work, but they are hacky, and they have downsides such as making it
harder to make sure headers from the wrong Nix library (e..g.
`libnixexpr` headers in `libnixutil`) aren't being used.
The C API alraedy used `nix_api_*`, so its headers are *not* put in
subdirectories accordingly.
Progress on #7876
We resisted doing this for a while because it would be annoying to not
have the header source file pairs close by / easy to change file
path/name from one to the other. But I am ameliorating that with
symlinks in the next commit.

This allows a flake to specify that it needs Git submodules to be
enabled (or disabled, if we ever change the default) on the top-level
flake. This requires the input to be refetched, but since the first
fetch is lazy, this shouldn't be expensive.
Currently the only attribute allowed by `inputs.self` is `submodules`,
but more can be added in the future (e.g. a `lazy` attribute to opt in
to lazy tree behaviour).
Fixes#5312, #9842.
This allows writing lock files with dirty inputs, so long as they have
a NAR hash. (Currently they always have a NAR hash, but with lazy
trees that may not always be the case.)
Generally dirty locks are bad for reproducibility (we can detect if
the dirty input has changed, but we have no way to fetch it except
substitution). Hence we don't allow them by default.
Fixes#11181.
Commands like `nix flake metadata '.?submodules=1'` ignored the query
part of the URL, while `nix build '.?submodules=1#foo'` did work
correctly because of the presence of the fragment part.
When resolving indirect flake references like `nixpkgs` in `flake.nix`
files, Nix will no longer use the system and user flake registries. It
will only use the global flake registry and overrides given on the
command line via `--override-flake`.
