# Clang tidy lints for Nix
This is a skeleton of a clang-tidy lints library for Nix.
Currently there is one check (which is already obsolete as it has served its
goal and is there as an example), `HasPrefixSuffixCheck`.
## Running fixes/checks
One file:
```
ninja -C build && clang-tidy --checks='-*,nix-*' --load=build/libnix-clang-tidy.so -p ../compile_commands.json --fix ../src/libcmd/installables.cc
```
Several files, in parallel:
```
ninja -C build && run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,nix-*' -load=build/libnix-clang-tidy.so -p .. -fix ../src | tee -a clang-tidy-result
```
## Resources
* https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/code-quality/static-analysis/writing-new/clang-query.html
* https://clang.llvm.org/docs/LibASTMatchersReference.html
* https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/exploring-clang-tooling-part-3-rewriting-code-with-clang-tidy/
## Developing new checks
Put something like so in `myquery.txt`:
```
set traversal IgnoreUnlessSpelledInSource
# ^ Ignore implicit AST nodes. May need to use AsIs depending on how you are
# working.
set bind-root true
# ^ true unless you use any .bind("foo") commands
set print-matcher true
enable output dump
match callExpr(callee(functionDecl(hasName("hasPrefix"))), optionally(hasArgument( 0, cxxConstructExpr(hasDeclaration(functionDecl(hasParameter(0, parmVarDecl(hasType(asString("const char *"))).bind("meow2"))))))))
```
Then run, e.g. `clang-query --preload hasprefix.query -p compile_commands.json src/libcmd/installables.cc`.
With this you can iterate a query before writing it in C++ and suffering from
C++.
### Tips and tricks for the C++
There is a function `dump()` on many things that will dump to stderr. Also
`llvm::errs()` lets you print to stderr.
When I wrote `HasPrefixSuffixCheck`, I was not really able to figure out how
the structured replacement system was supposed to work. In principle you can
describe the replacement with a nice DSL. Look up the Stencil system in Clang
for details.

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.

synopsis: Concise error printing in `nix repl`
prs: 9928
---
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!"
error:
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
at «string»:1:1:

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.
If empty (the default) `system` is used as before, so there is no breakage.

The interface for creating and updating lock files has been overhauled:

It will *never* update existing inputs.
- [`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.
They are superceded by `nix flake update`.

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.

It is useful to perform multiple cross and native builds on the same source tree,
for example to ensure that better support for one platform doesn't break the build for another.
In order to facilitate this, Nix has some support for being built out of tree that is, placing build artefacts in a different directory than the source code:

```bash
mkdir build
```
2. Run the configure script from that directory, e.g.

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 `unit-test-data`, with one subdir per library, with the same name as where the code goes.
For example, `libnixstore` code is in `src/libstore`, and its test data is in `unit-test-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`.
> **Note**
> Due to the way googletest works, downstream unit test executables will actually include and re-run upstream library tests.
> Therefore it is important that the same value for `_NIX_TEST_UNIT_DATA` be used with the tests for each library.
> That is why we have the test data nested within a single `unit-test-data` directory.
### Running tests
The unit-tests for each Nix library (`libexpr`, `libstore`, etc..) are defined
under `tests/unit/{library_name}/tests` using the

- If a pattern is a single identifier, then the function matches any
argument. Example:
```nix
let negate = x: !x;
concat = x: y: x + y;
in if negate true then concat "foo" "bar" else ""
```
Note that `concat` is a function that takes one argument and returns
a function that takes another argument. This allows partial
parameterisation (i.e., only filling some of the arguments of a
function); e.g.,
```nix
map (concat "foo") [ "bar" "bla" "abc" ]
```
evaluates to `[ "foobar" "foobla" "fooabc" ]`.
- A *set pattern* of the form `{ name1, name2, …, nameN }` matches a
set containing the listed attributes, and binds the values of those
attributes to variables in the function body. For example, the
function
```nix
{ x, y, z }: z + y + x
```
can only be called with a set containing exactly the attributes `x`,
`y` and `z`. No other attributes are allowed. If you want to allow
additional arguments, you can use an ellipsis (`...`):
```nix
{ x, y, z, ... }: z + y + x
```
This works on any set that contains at least the three named
attributes.
It is possible to provide *default values* for attributes, in
which case they are allowed to be missing. A default value is
specified by writing `name ? e`, where *e* is an arbitrary
expression. For example,
```nix
{ x, y ? "foo", z ? "bar" }: z + y + x
```
specifies a function that only requires an attribute named `x`, but
optionally accepts `y` and `z`.
- An `@`-pattern provides a means of referring to the whole value
being matched:
```nix
args@{ x, y, z, ... }: z + y + x + args.a
```
but can also be written as:

- `nix-env` usability improvements:
- An option `--compare-versions` (or `-c`) has been added to
`nix-env
--query` to allow you to compare installed versions of packages
to available versions, or vice versa. An easy way to see if you
are up to date with whats in your subscribed channels is
`nix-env -qc \*`.
- `nix-env --query` now takes as arguments a list of package names
about which to show information, just like `--install`, etc.:
for example, `nix-env -q gcc`. Note that to show all
derivations, you need to specify `\*`.
- `nix-env -i
pkgname` will now install the highest available version of
*pkgname*, rather than installing all available versions (which
would probably give collisions) (`NIX-31`).
- `nix-env (-i|-u) --dry-run` now shows exactly which missing
paths will be built or substituted.
- `nix-env -qa --description` shows human-readable descriptions of
packages, provided that they have a `meta.description` attribute
(which most packages in Nixpkgs dont have yet).
- New language features:
- Reference scanning (which happens after each build) is much
faster and takes a constant amount of memory.

- Language features:
- @-patterns as in Haskell. For instance, in a function definition
f = args @ {x, y, z}: ...;
`args` refers to the argument as a whole, which is further
pattern-matched against the attribute set pattern `{x, y, z}`.
- “`...`” (ellipsis) patterns. An attribute set pattern can now
say `...` at the end of the attribute name list to specify that
the function takes *at least* the listed attributes, while
ignoring additional attributes. For instance,
{stdenv, fetchurl, fuse, ...}: ...
defines a function that accepts any attribute set that includes
at least the three listed attributes.
- New primops: `builtins.parseDrvName` (split a package name
string like `"nix-0.12pre12876"` into its name and version
components, e.g. `"nix"` and `"0.12pre12876"`),

- Rewrite of the normalisation engine.
- Multiple builds can now be performed in parallel (option `-j`).
- Distributed builds. Nix can now call a shell script to forward
builds to Nix installations on remote machines, which may or may
not be of the same platform type.
- Option `--fallback` allows recovery from broken substitutes.
- Option `--keep-going` causes building of other (unaffected)
derivations to continue if one failed.

- Manual updates.
- `nix-env` changes:
- Derivations for other platforms are filtered out (which can be
overridden using `--system-filter`).
- `--install` by default now uninstall previous derivations with
the same name.
- `--upgrade` allows upgrading to a specific version.
- New operation `--delete-generations` to remove profile
generations (necessary for effective garbage collection).
- Nicer output (sorted, columnised).
- More sensible verbosity levels all around (builder output is now
shown always, unless `-Q` is given).
- Nix expression language changes:
- New language construct: `with
E1;
E2` brings all attributes defined in the attribute set *E1* in
scope in *E2*.
- Added a `map` function.
- Various new operators (e.g., string concatenation).
- Expression evaluation is much faster.
