slotThe 2c529c3cb8 Link to Libera, Matrix instead of Freenode
The project has moved away from Freenode as an IRC network[1], and there
is now a quite large channel on Libera.  As such, we should point users
towards that instead.

This also changes all examples to refer to libera instead of freenode
as, with the recent deletion of all freenode channels, it is perhaps
where most communities are to be found nowadays.

Finally, also link to the official Matrix room[2] as an alternative to
IRC.

Niklas Hambüchen 7cfaba911d manual: Hardening: Remove now-nonexistent ArchWiki link.
The page has been replaced by the much more general page
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Security#Packages
which is barely talking about hardening flags any more.

Niklas Hambüchen ac36a0f9eb manual: hardening: Fix disabled flags prose being in previous section
This confused the hell out of me, as I didn't spot the

> The following flags are disabled by default ...

when reading about `pie`, because that sentence was hidden in the
previous hardening flag's section.

Also explain that `pie` hardening is on by default on musl.

Chris Martin 023489f623 docs: update Steam instructions to use steam-run-native package
pkgs.steam-run-native is defined as exactly the expression that
these instructions tell you to write, so the instruction is no
longer necessary since we can just tell you to use that.

Refresh the Ocaml package examples; document useDune2 (#127520)
The current example in the manual no longer builds, mainly because
`useDune2 = true` is required, but also because the inputs have changed.
The new examples are copied verbatim from nixpkgs.

Alyssa Ross b0b5ef7286 stdenv: introduce dontAddStaticConfigureFlags
With removeUnknownConfigureFlags, it's impossible to express a package
that needs --enable-static, but will not accept --disable-shared,
without overriding the result of removeUnknownConfigureFlags _again_
in pkgs/top-level/static.nix.

It would be much better (and more in line with the rest of Nixpkgs) if
we encoded changes needed for static builds in package definitions
themselves, rather than in an ever-expanding list in static.nix.  This
is especially true when doing it in static.nix is going to require
multiple overrides to express what could be expressed with stdenv
options.

So as a step in that direction, and to fix the problem described
above, here I replace removeUnknownConfigureFlags with a new stdenv
option, dontAddStaticConfigureFlags.  With this mechanism, a package
that needs one but not both of the flags just needs to set
dontAddStaticConfigureFlags and then set up configureFlags manually
based on stdenv.hostPlatform.isStatic.

nixos/*: replace alsa* aliases
The attributes got renamed in PR #126440 and in some places this caused
evaluation errors, e.g. the tarball job was saying (locally)
> attribute 'alsaUtils' missing, at /build/source/nixos/modules/services/audio/alsa.nix:6:4
and I suspect that trunk-combined jobset's failure to evaluate was also caused.

doc: Build as CommonMark
We were using Pandoc’s Markdown parser. This is non-standard and might cause issues when we finally switch to some other tool.

Since RFC 0072 agreed on CommonMark, let’s switch to that.

We will use some extensions to make the limited syntax bearable but these are official so they should be more portable.

doc: prepare for commonmark
We are still using Pandoc’s Markdown parser, which differs from CommonMark spec slightly.

Notably:
- Line breaks in lists behave differently.
- Admonitions do not support the simpler syntax https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/issues/75
- The auto_identifiers uses a different algorithm – I made the previous ones explicit.
- Languages (classes) of code blocks cannot contain whitespace so we have to use “pycon” alias instead of Python “console” as GitHub’s linguist

While at it, I also fixed the following issues:
- ShellSesssion was used
- Removed some pointless docbook tags.

Silvan Mosberger 155ae682a5 buildGoModule/buildGoPackage: Introduce ldflags argument
Previously it was not possible to define multiple ldflags, since only
the last definition applies, and there's some quoting issues with
`buildFlagsArray`. With the new `ldflags` argument it's possible to do
this, e.g.

    ldflags = drv.ldflags or [] ++ [
      "-X main.Version=1.0"
    ]

can now properly append a flag without clearing all previous ldflags.

Merge pull request #122158 from danieldk/import-cargo-lock
rustPlatform.buildRustPackage: support direct use of Cargo.lock
2021-05-28 12:07:25 +02:00
Daniël de Kok b3969f3ad7 rustPlatform.buildRustPackage: support direct use of Cargo.lock
This change introduces the cargoLock argument to buildRustPackage,
which can be used in place of cargo{Sha256,Hash} or cargoVendorDir. It
uses the importCargoLock function to build the vendor
directory. Differences compared to cargo{Sha256,Hash}:

- Requires a Cargo.lock file.
- Does not require a Cargo hash.
- Retrieves all dependencies as fixed-output derivations.

This makes buildRustPackage much easier to use as part of a Rust
project, since it does not require updating cargo{Sha256,Hash} for
every change to the lock file.
2021-05-28 08:01:28 +02:00
Daniël de Kok 2f46d77e28 rustPlatform.importCargoLock: init
This function can be used to create an output path that is a cargo
vendor directory. In contrast to e.g. fetchCargoTarball all the
dependent crates are fetched using fixed-output derivations. The
hashes for the fixed-output derivations are gathered from the
Cargo.lock file.

Usage is very simple, e.g.:

importCargoLock {
  lockFile = ./Cargo.lock;
}

would use the lockfile from the current directory.

The implementation of this function is based on Eelco Dolstra's
import-cargo:

https://github.com/edolstra/import-cargo/blob/master/flake.nix

Compared to upstream:

- We use fetchgit in place of builtins.fetchGit.
- Sync to current cargo vendoring.
