# Stale bot information
|
||||
|
||||
- Thanks for your contribution!
|
||||
- To remove the stale label, just leave a new comment.
|
||||
- _How to find the right people to ping?_ → [`git blame`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-blame) to the rescue! (or GitHub's history and blame buttons.)
|
||||
- You can always ask for help on [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/) or on [Matrix - #nix:nixos.org](https://matrix.to/#/#nix:nixos.org).
|
||||
|
||||
## Suggestions for PRs
|
||||
|
||||
1. GitHub sometimes doesn't notify people who commented / reviewed a PR previously, when you (force) push commits. If you have addressed the reviews you can [officially ask for a review](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from those who commented to you or anyone else.
|
||||
2. If it is unfinished but you plan to finish it, please mark it as a draft.
|
||||
3. If you don't expect to work on it any time soon, closing it with a short comment may encourage someone else to pick up your work.
|
||||
4. To get things rolling again, rebase the PR against the target branch and address valid comments.
|
||||
5. If you need a review to move forward, ask in [the Discourse thread for PRs that need help](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/prs-in-distress/3604).
|
||||
6. If all you need is a merge, check the git history to find and [request reviews](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from people who usually merge related contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Suggestions for issues
|
||||
|
||||
1. If it is resolved (either for you personally, or in general), please consider closing it.
|
||||
2. If this might still be an issue, but you are not interested in promoting its resolution, please consider closing it while encouraging others to take over and reopen an issue if they care enough.
|
||||
3. If you still have interest in resolving it, try to ping somebody who you believe might have an interest in the topic. Consider discussing the problem in [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/).
|
||||
4. As with all open source projects, your best option is to submit a Pull Request that addresses this issue. We :heart: this attitude!
|
||||
|
||||
**Memorandum on closing issues**
|
||||
|
||||
Don't be afraid to close an issue that holds valuable information. Closed issues stay in the system for people to search, read, cross-reference, or even reopen--nothing is lost! Closing obsolete issues is an important way to help maintainers focus their time and effort.

# Contributing to Lix
|

# Contributing to Nix
|
||||
|
||||
Welcome and thank you for considering contributing to Lix! We're currently in a soft release phase, and your support means a lot to us.
|
||||
Welcome and thank you for your interest in contributing to Nix!
|
||||
We appreciate your support.
|
||||
|
||||
To ensure a smooth and effective contribution process, here is a summary of our guidelines:
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting help?
|
||||
|
||||
If you have any question regarding getting started or reporting bugs, feel free
|
||||
to reach out to us.
|
||||
|
||||
On Matrix, we have a space at `#space:lix.systems`, composed of:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`#discuss:lix.systems`](https://matrix.to/#/#discuss:lix.systems) for discussions on Lix.
|
||||
- [`#dev:lix.systems`](https://matrix.to/#/#dev:lix.systems) for the development channel on Lix.
|
||||
Reading and following these guidelines will help us make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved.
|
||||
|
||||
## Report a bug
|
||||
|
||||
- Check if your bug has already been reported in the [issue tracker](https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues).
|
||||
- If you can't find the bug or feature, please open a new issue.
|
||||
1. Check on the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues) if your bug was already reported.
|
||||
|
||||
We maintain a copy of the upstream Nix bugs. Their organisation can be read about [here](https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/bug-tracker-organisation).
|
||||
2. If you were not able to find the bug or feature [open a new issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/new/choose)
|
||||
|
||||
3. The issue templates will guide you in specifying your issue.
|
||||
The more complete the information you provide, the more likely it can be found by others and the more useful it is in the future.
|
||||
Make sure reported bugs can be reproduced easily.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Once submitted, do not expect issues to be picked up or solved right away.
|
||||
The only way to ensure this, is to [work on the issue yourself](#making-changes-to-nix).
|
||||
|
||||
## Report a security vulnerability
|
||||
|
||||
For security vulnerabilities, reach out by email at `security at lix dot systems`.
|
||||
Check out the [security policy](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/security/policy).
|
||||
|
||||
## Making changes to Lix
|
||||
## Making changes to Nix
|
||||
|
||||
Before diving into making changes, we want to engage with you and your ideas.
|
||||
1. Check for [pull requests](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pulls) that might already cover the contribution you are about to make.
|
||||
There are many open pull requests that might already do what you intent to work on.
|
||||
You can use [labels](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels) to filter for relevant topics.
|
||||
|
||||
We have a few policies in effect; please take the time to familiarize yourself:
|
||||
2. Search for related issues that cover what you're going to work on. It could help to mention there that you will work on the issue.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Style guide on code](https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/code)
|
||||
- [Freeze policy and recommended contributions](https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/freezes-and-recommended-contributions)
|
||||
Issues labeled [good first issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/good-first-issue) should be relatively easy to fix and are likely to get merged quickly.
|
||||
Pull requests addressing issues labeled [idea approved](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/idea%20approved) are especially welcomed by maintainers and will receive prioritised review.
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid duplication of effort, it may be a good idea to check out the list of
|
||||
[pending pull requests](https://gerrit.lix.systems/q/status:open+-is:wip) (or "change lists", as Gerrit calls them). Once you have
|
||||
an idea of what you might want to do, we recommend dropping a message on our
|
||||
Matrix to ensure your contribution fits with our current schedule and plans
|
||||
3. Check the [Nix reference manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/contributing/hacking.html) for information on building Nix and running its tests.
|
||||
|
||||
When you're ready and your changes are ready to go:
|
||||
For contributions to the command line interface, please check the [CLI guidelines](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/contributing/cli-guideline.html).
|
||||
|
||||
- Submit your code.
|
||||
- Submitting a GitHub PR [on our mirror](https://github.com/lix-project/lix) is totally ok if that's easier for you and your change is relatively small (300 lines or so).
|
||||
4. Make your changes!
|
||||
|
||||
We may ask you to resubmit it as a Gerrit CL if it is necessary for the change you're making.
|
||||
- Our primary code review system is [our Gerrit instance](https://gerrit.lix.systems), where you can open a change list (CL).
|
||||
If you're new to Gerrit, check out [our wiki page about Gerrit](https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/gerrit).
|
||||
- Make sure to link any related issues.
|
||||
- If needed, indicate that the change is 'work in progress'.
|
||||
5. [Create a pull request](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request) for your changes.
|
||||
* Link related issues in your pull request to inform interested parties and future contributors about your change.
|
||||
* Make sure to have [a clean history of commits on your branch by using rebase](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-rebase-and-update-a-pull-request).
|
||||
If your pull request closes one or multiple issues, note that in the description using `Closes: #<number>`, as it will then happen automatically when your change is merged.
|
||||
* [Mark the pull request as draft](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/changing-the-stage-of-a-pull-request) if you're not done with the changes.
|
||||
|
||||
You can obtain an account on our platforms by clicking "Sign In with GitHub" on the sign-in page.
|
||||
6. Do not expect your pull request to be reviewed immediately.
|
||||
Nix maintainers follow a [structured process for reviews and design decisions](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/tree/master/maintainers#project-board-protocol), which may or may not prioritise your work.
|
||||
|
||||
Following this checklist will make the process smoother for everyone:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Fixes an [idea approved](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels/idea%20approved) issue
|
||||
- [ ] Tests, as appropriate:
|
||||
- Functional tests – [`tests/functional/**.sh`](./tests/functional)
|
||||
- Unit tests – [`src/*/tests`](./src/)
|
||||
- Integration tests – [`tests/nixos/*`](./tests/nixos)
|
||||
- [ ] User documentation in the [manual](..doc/manual/src)
|
||||
- [ ] API documentation in header files
|
||||
- [ ] Code and comments are self-explanatory
|
||||
- [ ] Commit message explains **why** the change was made
|
||||
- [ ] New feature or incompatible change: updated [release notes](./doc/manual/src/release-notes/rl-next.md)
|
||||
|
||||
7. If you need additional feedback or help to getting pull request into shape, ask other contributors using [@mentions](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#mentioning-people-and-teams).
|
||||
|
||||
## Making changes to the Nix manual
|
||||
|
||||
The Nix reference manual is hosted on https://nixos.org/manual/nix.

We now have Clang build profiling available, which generates Chrome

tracing files for each compilation unit. To enable it, run `meson configure

build -Dprofile-build=enabled` then rerun the compilation.
|

|

If you want to make the build go faster, do a clang build with meson, then run
|

`maintainers/buildtime_report.sh build`, then contemplate how to improve the
|

build time.

cls: 811
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
Previously, if an element of a list or attribute set threw an error while
|
||||
evaluating, `nix repl` would print the entire error (including source location
|
||||
information) inline. This output was clumsy and difficult to parse:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
|
||||
{ err = «error:
|
||||
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
|
||||
at «string»:1:9:
|
||||
1| { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
|
||||
| ^
|
||||
|
||||
error: uh oh!»; }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now, only the error message is displayed, making the output much more readable.
|
||||
```
|
||||
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
|
||||
{ err = «error: uh oh!»; }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
However, if the whole expression being evaluated throws an error, source
|
||||
locations and (if applicable) a stack trace are printed, just like you'd expect:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
nix-repl> builtins.throw "uh oh!"

`build-dir` can now be set in the Nix configuration to choose the backing directory for the build sandbox.
|
||||
This can be useful on systems with `/tmp` on tmpfs, or simply to relocate large builds to another disk.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is no longer considered when selecting the default temporary directory,
|

as it's not intended to be used for large amounts of data.

Add a new `eval-system` option.

Unlike `system`, it just overrides the value of `builtins.currentSystem`.
|

This is more useful than overriding `system`, because you can build these derivations on remote builders which can work on the given system.

In contrast, `system` also effects scheduling which will cause Nix to build those derivations locally even if that doesn't make sense.

`eval-system` only takes effect if it is non-empty.

the output into a bug report.

- [`nix flake update`](@docroot@/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-flake-update.md) does the same, but *will* update inputs.

- Passing no arguments will update all inputs of the current flake, just like it already did.
|
||||
- Passing input names as arguments will ensure only those are updated. This replaces the functionality of `nix flake lock --update-input`
|
||||
- To operate on a flake outside the current directory, you must now pass `--flake path/to/flake`.

||||
|
||||
- The flake-specific flags `--recreate-lock-file` and `--update-input` have been removed from all commands operating on installables.

CppNix 2.3 was released in 2019, and is the new oldest supported version. We

will increase our support baseline in the future up to a final version of CppNix
|

2.18 (which may happen soon given that it is the only still-packaged and thus

still-tested >2.3 version), but this step already removes a significant amount

of dead, untested, code paths.
|
||||
|
||||
Lix speaks the same version of the protocol as CppNix 2.18 and that fact will

never change in the future; the Lix plans to replace the protocol for evolution
|

will entail a complete incompatible replacement that will be supported in

parallel with the old protocol. Lix will thus retain remote build compatibility

with CppNix as long as CppNix maintains protocol compatibility with 2.18, and
|
||||
as long as Lix retains legacy protocol support (which will likely be a long

time given that we plan to convert it to a frozen-in-time shim).

|
||||
|
||||
A `repl-overlays` option has been added, which specifies files that can overlay
|
||||
and modify the top-level bindings in `nix repl`. For example, with the
|
||||
following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
info: final: prev: let
|
||||
optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
|
||||
if predicate
|
||||
then attrs
|
||||
else {};
|
||||
in
|
||||
optionalAttrs (prev ? legacyPackages && prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem})
|
||||
{
|
||||
pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
We can run `nix repl` and use `pkgs` to refer to `legacyPackages.${currentSystem}`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ShellSession

You can now build Lix with the configuration option `-Db_sanitize=undefined` and it will both work and pass tests. AddressSanitizer support is also coming soon.

synopsis: reintroduce shortened `-E` form for `--expr` to new CLI
|

cls: 605
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
In the past, it was possible to supply a shorter `-E` flag instead of fully
|
||||
specifying `--expr` every time you wished to provide an expression that would
|
||||
be evaluated to produce the given command's input. This was retained for the
|
||||
`--file` flag when the new CLI utilities were written with `-f`, but `-E` was
|
||||
dropped.
|
||||
|
||||
We now restore the `-E` short form for better UX. This is most useful for
|
||||
`nix eval` but most any command that takes an Installable argument should benefit
|
||||
from it as well.

On non-NixOS, Nix is conventionally installed into a `nix-env` style profile at /nix/var/nix/profiles/default.

`with` expressions using non-attrset values to resolve variables are now reported with proper positions.

Previously an incorrect `with` expression would report no position at all, making it hard to determine where the error originated:

There are multiple reasons we follow this practice, but it boils down to privacy and consent: we would rather not capture full names that are not widely used in the community without the consent of the parties involved, even if they are publicly available.
|
||||
As of this writing, the entries with full names as `display_name` are either members of the CppNix team or people who added them themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
The names specified in `credits` are used as keys to look up the authorship info in `doc/manual/change-authors.yml`.
|
||||
The only mandatory part is that every key appearing in `credits` has an entry present in `change-authors.yml`.
|
||||
All of the following properties are optional; you can specify `{}` as the metadata if you want a simple non-hyperlinked mention.
|
||||
The following properties are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
- `display_name`: display name used in place of the key when showing names, if present.
|
||||
- `forgejo`: Forgejo username. The name in the release notes will be a link to this, if present.
|
||||
- `github`: GitHub username, used if `forgejo` is not set, again making a link.

The unit tests for each Lix library (`liblixexpr`, `liblixstore`, etc..) live inside a directory `src/${library_shortname}/tests` within the directory for the library (`src/${library_shortname}`).
|
||||
The unit tests for each Nix library (`libnixexpr`, `libnixstore`, etc..) live inside a directory `src/${library_shortname}/tests` within the directory for the library (`src/${library_shortname}`).
|
||||
|
||||
The data is in `tests/unit/LIBNAME/data/LIBNAME`, with one subdir per library, with the same name as where the code goes.
|
||||
For example, `liblixstore` code is in `src/libstore`, and its test data is in `tests/unit/libstore/data/libstore`.
|
||||
The path to the unit test data directory is passed to the unit test executable with the environment variable `_NIX_TEST_UNIT_DATA`.
|

The data is in `unit-test-data`, with one subdir per library, with the same name as where the code goes.

### Running tests
|
||||
|
||||
You can run the whole testsuite with `just test` (see justfile for exact invocation of meson), and if you want to run just one test suite, use `just test --suite installcheck functional-init` where `installcheck` is the name of the test suite in this case and `functional-init` is the name of the test.
|
||||
|
||||
To get a list of tests, use `meson test -C build --list` (or `just test --list` for short).
|
||||
|
||||
For `installcheck` specifically, first run `just install` before running the test suite (this is due to meson limitations that don't let us put a dependency on installing before doing the test).
|
||||
|
||||
Finer-grained filtering within a test suite is also possible using the [--gtest_filter](https://google.github.io/googletest/advanced.html#running-a-subset-of-the-tests) command-line option to a test suite executable, or the `GTEST_FILTER` environment variable.
|
||||
You can run the whole testsuite with `make check`, or the tests for a specific component with `make libfoo-tests_RUN`.

||||

FIXME: maybe this section should be moved elsewhere or turned partially into user docs, but I just need a complete index for now.

I actually want to ban people calling getenv without writing documentation, and produce a comprehensive list of env-vars used by Lix and enforce it.

||||

||||
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_UNIT_DATA` - The path to the directory for the data for a given unit test suite.

||||
### Used by Lix
|
||||
|
||||
- `_NIX_FORCE_HTTP` - Forces file URIs to be treated as remote ones.
|
||||
|
||||
Used by `src/libfetchers/git.cc`, `src/libstore/http-binary-cache-store.cc`,
|
||||
`src/libstore/local-binary-cache-store.cc`. Seems to be for forcing Git
|
||||
clones of `git+file://` URLs, making the HTTP binary
|
||||
cache store accept `file://` URLs (presumably passing them to curl?), and
|
||||
unknown reasons for the local binary cache.
|
||||
|
||||
FIXME(jade): is this obscuring a bug in https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/200?
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: 1
|
||||
- `NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE`, `NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE` (output) - Set by Lix builders; see
|
||||
`structuredAttrs` documentation.
|
||||
- `NIX_BIN_DIR`, `NIX_STORE_DIR` (or its inconsistently-used old alias `NIX_STORE`), `NIX_DATA_DIR`,
|
||||
`NIX_LOG_DIR`, `NIX_LOG_DIR`, `NIX_STATE_DIR`, `NIX_CONF_DIR` -
|
||||
Overrides compile-time configuration of various locations used by Lix. See `src/libstore/globals.cc`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: a directory
|
||||
- `NIX_DAEMON_SOCKET_PATH` (optional) - Overrides the daemon socket path from `$NIX_STATE_DIR/daemon-socket/socket`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: path to a socket
|
||||
- `NIX_LOG_FD` (output) - An FD number for logs in `internal-json` format to be sent to.
|
||||
Used for, mostly, "setPhase" in nixpkgs setup.sh, but can also be creatively used to print verbose log messages from derivations.
|
||||
|
||||
**Provided value**: number corresponding to an FD in the builder
|
||||
- `NIX_PATH` - Search path for `<whatever>`. Documented elsewhere in the manual.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: `:` separated list of things that are not necessarily pointing to filesystem paths
|
||||
- `NIX_REMOTE` - The default value of the Lix setting `store`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: "daemon", usually. Could be "auto" or any other value acceptable in `store`.
|
||||
- `NIX_BUILD_SHELL` - Documented elsewhere; the shell to invoke with `nix-shell` but not `nix develop`/`nix shell`.
|
||||
The latter ignoring it altogether seems like a bug.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: the path to an executable shell
|
||||
- `PRINT_PATH` - Undocumented. Used by `nix-prefetch-url` as an alternative form of `--print-path`. Why???
|
||||
- `_NIX_IN_TEST` - If present with any value, makes `fetchClosure` accept file URLs in addition to HTTP ones. Why is this not `_NIX_FORCE_HTTP`??
|
||||
|
||||
Not used anywhere else.
|
||||
- `NIX_ALLOW_EVAL` - Used by eval-cache tests to block evaluation if set to `0`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: 1 or 0
|
||||
- `EDITOR` - Used by `editorFor()`, which has some extremely sketchy editor-detection code for jumping to line numbers.
|
||||
- `LISTEN_FDS` and `LISTEN_PID` - Used for systemd socket activation using the systemd socket activation protocol.
|
||||
- `NIX_PAGER` (alternatively, `PAGER`) - Used to select a pager for Lix output. Why does this not use libutil `getEnv()`?
|
||||
- `LESS` (output) - Sets the pager settings for `less` when invoked by Lix.
|
||||
- `NIX_IGNORE_SYMLINK_STORE` - When set, Lix allows the store to be a symlink. Why do we support this?
|
||||
|
||||
Apparently [someone was using it enough to fix it](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4038).
|
||||
- `NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE` (alternatively, `SSL_CERT_FILE`) - Used to set CA certificates for libcurl.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt" or similar
|
||||
- `NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS` - Used to set `builders`. Can we please deprecate this?
|
||||
- `NIX_USER_CONF_FILES` - `:` separated list of config files to load before
|
||||
`/nix/nix.conf` under each of `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`.
|
||||
- `NIX_CONFIG` - Newline separated configuration to load into Lix.
|
||||
- `NIX_GET_COMPLETIONS` - Returns completions.
|
||||
Unsure of the exact format, someone should document it; either way my shell never had any completions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: number of completions to return.
|
||||
- `IN_SYSTEMD` - Used to switch the logging format so that systemd gets the correct log levels. I think.
|
||||
- `NIX_HELD_LOCKS` - Not used, what is this for?? We should surely remove it right after searching github?
|
||||
- `GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE` - Used to set the initial heap size, processed by boehmgc.
|
||||
- `NIX_COUNT_CALLS` - Documented elsewhere; prints call counts for profiling purposes.
|
||||
- `NIX_SHOW_STATS` - Documented elsewhere; prints various evaluation statistics like function calls, gc info, and similar.
|
||||
- `NIX_SHOW_STATS_PATH` - Writes those statistics into a file at the given path instead of stdout. Undocumented.
|
||||
- `NIX_SHOW_SYMBOLS` - Dumps the symbol table into the show-stats json output.
|
||||
- `TERM` - If `dumb` or unset, disables ANSI colour output.
|
||||
- `NO_COLOR`, `NOCOLOR` - Disables ANSI colour output.
|
||||
- `_NIX_DEVELOPER_SHOW_UNKNOWN_LOCATIONS` - Highlights unknown locations in errors.
|
||||
- `NIX_PROFILE` - Selects which profile `nix-env` will operate on. Documented elsewhere.
|
||||
- `NIX_SSHOPTS` - Options passed to `ssh(1)` when using a ssh remote store.
|
||||
Incorrectly documented on `nix-copy-closure` which is *surely* not the only place they are used??
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_NO_LSOF` - Used on non-Linux, non-macOS platforms to disable using `lsof` when finding gc roots.
|
||||
|
||||
Since https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/156 was fixed, this should probably just be removed as it was a bad workaround for a macOS issue.
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_GC_SYNC_1` - Path to a pipe that is used to block the GC briefly to validate invariants from the test suite.
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_GC_SYNC_2` - Path to a pipe that is used to block the GC briefly to validate invariants from the test suite.
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_FREE_SPACE_FILE` - Path to a file containing a decimal number with the free space that the GC is to believe it has.
|
||||
- Various XDG vars
|
||||
- `NIX_DEBUG_SQLITE_TRACES` - Dump all sqlite queries to the log at `notice` level.
|
||||
- `_NIX_TEST_NO_SANDBOX` - Disables actually setting up the sandbox on macOS while leaving other logic the same. Unused on other platforms.
|
||||
- `_NIX_TRACE_BUILT_OUTPUTS` - Dumps all the derivation paths alongside their outputs as lines into a file of the given name.
|
||||
|
||||
### Used by the functional test framework
|
||||
|
||||
- `NIX_DAEMON_PACKAGE` - Runs the test suite against an alternate Nix daemon with the current client.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: something like `/nix/store/...-nix-2.18.2`
|
||||
- `NIX_CLIENT_PACKAGE` - Runs the test suite against an alternate Nix client with the current daemon.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: something like `/nix/store/...-nix-2.18.2`
|
||||
- `NIX_TESTS_CA_BY_DEFAULT` - Pass `__contentAddressed`, `outputHashMode` and `outputHashAlgo` to builds of some input-addressed derivations in the test suite.
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected value**: 1
|
||||
- `TEST_DATA` - Not an environment variable! This is used in repl characterization tests to refer to `tests/functional/repl_characterization/data`.
|
||||
More specifically, that path is replaced with the string `$TEST_DATA` in output for reproducibility.
|
||||
- `TEST_HOME` (output) - Set to the temporary directory that is set as `$HOME` inside the tests, underneath `$TEST_ROOT`.
|
||||
- `TEST_ROOT` (output) - Set to the temporary directory that is created for each test to mess with.
|
||||
