Eelco Dolstra fad83a9560 Allow literalExample in subexpressions of examples 2013-10-23 20:08:22 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 0def73f390 Manual: Don't depend on the absolute path of modules
This ensures that the manual has the same store path regardless of the
directory in which Nixpkgs is stored, and thus can be fetched from the
channel.

Eelco Dolstra ec0911ce7f Manual: Don't show obsolete/deprecated options 2013-10-23 20:08:21 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 29014a47fb Allow options to be marked as "internal"
This means they're not for end users.  Currently they're filtered from
the manual, but we could include them in a separate section.

Eelco Dolstra 441dcd68d8 Get rid of special-casing of system.path in the manual generation 2013-10-23 20:08:21 +02:00

nixos-generate-config: Add --show-hardware-config.
So, we get the old behaviour of nixos-hardware-scane if we run the
following command:

nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --show-hardware-config

This allows to use scripts in order to fetch NixOS specific hardware
information, without the need to duplicate code elsewhere.

nixos-generate-config: Add --no-filesystems flag.
This is to get back the old behavior of nixos-hardware-scan, which
didn't include fileSystems and swapDevices.

Eelco Dolstra ac13bd2575 Merge "nixos-option --install" into nixos-generate-config
Having configuration.nix generation hidden underneath nixos-option
never made sense, also given that there was another command to
generate part of the configuration (nixos-hardware-scan).  Now
nixos-generate-config produces both configuration.nix and
hardware-configuration.nix.  The latter is overwritten while the
former is not.
