/*
Restrict a derivation to a predictable set of attribute names, so
that the returned attrset is not strict in the actual derivation,
saving a lot of computation when the derivation is non-trivial.
This is useful in situations where a derivation might only be used for its
passthru attributes, improving evaluation performance.
The returned attribute set is lazy in `derivation`. Specifically, this
means that the derivation will not be evaluated in at least the
situations below.
For illustration and/or testing, we define derivation such that its
evaluation is very noticeable.
let derivation = throw "This won't be evaluated.";
In the following expressions, `derivation` will _not_ be evaluated:
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation; }).type
attrNames (lazyDerivation { inherit derivation; })
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation; } // { foo = true; }).foo
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation; meta.foo = true; }).meta
In these expressions, `derivation` _will_ be evaluated:
"${lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }}"
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }).outPath
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }).meta
And the following expressions are not valid, because the refer to
implementation details and/or attributes that may not be present on
some derivations:
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }).buildInputs
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }).passthru
(lazyDerivation { inherit derivation }).pythonPath

# However, consider the case where an output is added in the underlying
# derivation, such as dev. lazyDerivation would remove it and cause it
# to fail as a buildInputs item, without any indication as to what
# happened. Hence the more stringent condition. We could consider
# adding a flag to control this behavior if there's a valid case for it,
# but the documentation must have a note like this.

lib.lazyDerivation: The derivation ${derivation.name or "<unknown>"} has outputs that don't match the assumed outputs.
Assumed outputs passed to lazyDerivation${showMaybeAttrPosPre ",\n at " "outputs" args}:
${lib.generators.toPretty { multiline = false; } outputs};
Actual outputs of the derivation${showMaybePackagePosPre ",\n defined at " derivation}:
${lib.generators.toPretty { multiline = false; } derivation.outputs}
If the outputs are known ahead of evaluating the derivation,
then update the lazyDerivation call to match the actual outputs, in the same order.
If lazyDerivation is passed a literal value, just change it to the actual outputs.
As a result it will work as before / as intended.
Otherwise, when the outputs are dynamic and can't be known ahead of time, it won't
be possible to add laziness, but lib.lazyDerivation may still be useful for trimming
the attributes.
If you want to keep trimming the attributes, make sure that the package is in a
variable (don't evaluate it twice!) and pass the variable and its outputs attribute
to lib.lazyDerivation. This largely defeats laziness, but keeps the trimming.
If none of the above works for you, replace the lib.lazyDerivation call by the
expression in the derivation argument.

Because `mkDerivation` sets `__ignoreNulls = true`, a derivation
attribute set to `null` will not impact the derivation output hash.
Thus, this function passes through its `value` argument if the `cond`
is `true`, but returns `null` if not.

x = optionalDrvAttr true 1;
y = optionalDrvAttr false 1;
}).drvPath == (stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "foo";
x = 1;
}).drvPath
