| * doc/reviewing-contributions: fix build errorPierre Bourdon2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | Regression from #50674. Section IDs cannot contain spaces.
| * doc/cross-compilation: remove reference to old wikiMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | The link doesn’t work and it’s not very important to the documentation anyway.
| * doc/reviewing-contributions: pull-requests -> pull requestsMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | This makes things more consistent. It’s also how GitHub refers to pull requests.
| * doc/cross-compilation: fixupMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | More cleanups and stuff. May need to be split up.
| * doc/platform-notes: reword xcode warningMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | xcbuild doesn’t work exactly like xcode in some ways.
| * doc/stdenv: more changesMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | Lots of reworking here. May need to be split up.
| * doc/stdenv: document more setup hookMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here I document setup hooks provided by: - cmake - xcbuildHook - meson - ninja - unzip - wafHook - scons
| * doc/stdenv: document prefixKeyMatthew Bauer2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | This seems like a useful thing to document

| * | meta.tests: rename into passthru.testsLéo Gaspard2018-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nix currently rejects derivations in `meta` values. This works around that limitation by using `passthru` instead. Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/50230

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | It's incorrect (preferLocalBuild does not prevent uploading to binary caches) and is not a stdenv attribute (it's already documented in the Nix manual).

| |\ | | | | | | [RFC] Use `meta.tests` to link from packages to the tests that test them
| | * dovecot, opensmtpd: add link to test in `meta.tests`Léo Gaspard2018-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| * | python34: removeFrederik Rietdijk2018-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Python 3.4 will receive it's final patch release in March 2019 and there won't be any releases anymore after that, so also not during NixOS 2019.03. Python 3.4 is not used anymore in Nixpkgs. In any case, migrating code from 3.4 to 3.4+ is trivial.

| * | pythonPackages.pythondaemon: rename to pythonPackages.python-daemonBenjamin Hipple2018-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 me several hours.
