|
|||
|
||||
`fetchpatch` works very similarly to `fetchurl` with the same arguments expected. It expects patch files as a source and performs normalization on them before computing the checksum. For example it will remove comments or other unstable parts that are sometimes added by version control systems and can change over time.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Other fetcher functions allow you to add source code directly from a VCS such as subversion or git. These are mostly straightforward nambes based on the name of the command used with the VCS system. Because they give you a working repository, they act most like `fetchzip`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchsvn`
|
||||
## `fetchsvn` {#fetchsvn}
|
||||
|
||||
Used with Subversion. Expects `url` to a Subversion directory, `rev`, and `sha256`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchgit`
|
||||
## `fetchgit` {#fetchgit}
|
||||
|
||||
Used with Git. Expects `url` to a Git repo, `rev`, and `sha256`. `rev` in this case can be full the git commit id (SHA1 hash) or a tag name like `refs/tags/v1.0`.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally the following optional arguments can be given: `fetchSubmodules = true` makes `fetchgit` also fetch the submodules of a repository. If `deepClone` is set to true, the entire repository is cloned as opposing to just creating a shallow clone. `deepClone = true` also implies `leaveDotGit = true` which means that the `.git` directory of the clone won't be removed after checkout.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchfossil`
|
||||
## `fetchfossil` {#fetchfossil}
|
||||
|
||||
Used with Fossil. Expects `url` to a Fossil archive, `rev`, and `sha256`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchcvs`
|
||||
## `fetchcvs` {#fetchcvs}
|
||||
|
||||
Used with CVS. Expects `cvsRoot`, `tag`, and `sha256`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchhg`
|
||||
## `fetchhg` {#fetchhg}
|
||||
|
||||
Used with Mercurial. Expects `url`, `rev`, and `sha256`.
|
||||
|
||||
A number of fetcher functions wrap part of `fetchurl` and `fetchzip`. They are mainly convenience functions intended for commonly used destinations of source code in Nixpkgs. These wrapper fetchers are listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitHub`
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitHub` {#fetchfromgithub}
|
||||
|
||||
`fetchFromGitHub` expects four arguments. `owner` is a string corresponding to the GitHub user or organization that controls this repository. `repo` corresponds to the name of the software repository. These are located at the top of every GitHub HTML page as `owner`/`repo`. `rev` corresponds to the Git commit hash or tag (e.g `v1.0`) that will be downloaded from Git. Finally, `sha256` corresponds to the hash of the extracted directory. Again, other hash algorithms are also available but `sha256` is currently preferred.
|
||||
|
||||
`fetchFromGitHub` uses `fetchzip` to download the source archive generated by GitHub for the specified revision. If `leaveDotGit`, `deepClone` or `fetchSubmodules` are set to `true`, `fetchFromGitHub` will use `fetchgit` instead. Refer to its section for documentation of these options.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitLab`
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitLab` {#fetchfromgitlab}
|
||||
|
||||
This is used with GitLab repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to fetchFromGitHub above.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitiles`
|
||||
## `fetchFromGitiles` {#fetchfromgitiles}
|
||||
|
||||
This is used with Gitiles repositories. The arguments expected are similar to fetchgit.
|
||||
|
||||
## `fetchFromBitbucket`
|
||||
## `fetchFromBitbucket` {#fetchfrombitbucket}
|
||||
|
||||
This is used with BitBucket repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to fetchFromGitHub above.

## `fetchFromSavannah`

||||

||||

||||
This is used with repo.or.cz repositories. The arguments expected are very similar to fetchFromGitHub above.

The NixOS desktop or other non-headless configurations are the primary target for OpenGL libraries and applications.

In practice, this will be either via standard GLX for X11 users or EGL for Wayland users, and supporting either NVIDIA or Mesa extensions.

## Syntax {#sec-contributing-markup}
|
||||
|
||||
As per [RFC 0072](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/72), all new documentation content should be written in [CommonMark](https://commonmark.org/) Markdown dialect.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, the following syntax extensions are currently used:
|
||||
|
||||
- []{#ssec-contributing-markup-anchors}
|
||||
Explicitly defined **anchors** on headings, to allow linking to sections. These should be always used, to ensure the anchors can be linked even when the heading text changes, and to prevent conflicts between [automatically assigned identifiers](https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/blob/master/commonmark-extensions/test/auto_identifiers.md).
|
||||
|
||||
It uses the widely compatible [header attributes](https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/blob/master/commonmark-extensions/test/attributes.md) syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Syntax {#sec-contributing-markup}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- []{#ssec-contributing-markup-anchors-inline}
|
||||
**Inline anchors**, which allow linking arbitrary place in the text (e.g. individual list items, sentences…).
|
||||
|
||||
They are defined using a hybrid of the link syntax with the attributes syntax known from headings, called [bracketed spans](https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/blob/master/commonmark-extensions/test/bracketed_spans.md):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
- []{#ssec-gnome-hooks-glib} `glib` setup hook will populate `GSETTINGS_SCHEMAS_PATH` and then `wrapGAppsHook` will prepend it to `XDG_DATA_DIRS`.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- []{#ssec-contributing-markup-automatic-links}
|
||||
If you **omit a link text** for a link pointing to a section, the text will be substituted automatically. For example, `[](#chap-contributing)` will result in [](#chap-contributing).
|
||||
|
||||
This syntax is taken from [MyST](https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/using/syntax.html#targets-and-cross-referencing).
|
||||
|
||||
- []{#ssec-contributing-markup-admonitions}
|
||||
**Admonitions**, set off from the text to bring attention to something.
|
||||
|
||||
It uses pandoc’s [fenced `div`s syntax](https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/blob/master/commonmark-extensions/test/fenced_divs.md):

### Building Agda packages {#building-agda-packages}
|
||||
|
||||
The default build phase for `agdaPackages.mkDerivation` simply runs `agda` on the `Everything.agda` file.
|
||||
If something else is needed to build the package (e.g. `make`) then the `buildPhase` should be overridden.
|
||||
Additionally, a `preBuild` or `configurePhase` can be used if there are steps that need to be done prior to checking the `Everything.agda` file.
|
||||
`agda` and the Agda libraries contained in `buildInputs` are made available during the build phase.
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing Agda packages
|
||||
### Installing Agda packages {#installing-agda-packages}
|
||||
|
||||
The default install phase copies Agda source files, Agda interface files (`*.agdai`) and `*.agda-lib` files to the output directory.
|
||||
This can be overridden.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Agda sources are files ending on `.agda`, or literate Agda files ending on `.lagda`, `.lagda.tex`, `.lagda.org`, `.lagda.md`, `.lagda.rst`. The list of recognised Agda source extensions can be extended by setting the `extraExtensions` config variable.

This library has a file called `.agda-lib`, and so we give an empty string to `libraryFile` as nothing precedes `.agda-lib` in the filename. This file contains `name: IAL-1.3`, and so we let `libraryName = "IAL-1.3"`. This library does not use an `Everything.agda` file and instead has a Makefile, so there is no need to set `everythingFile` and we set a custom `buildPhase`.
|
||||
|
||||
When writing an Agda package it is essential to make sure that no `.agda-lib` file gets added to the store as a single file (for example by using `writeText`). This causes Agda to think that the nix store is a Agda library and it will attempt to write to it whenever it typechecks something. See [https://github.com/agda/agda/issues/4613](https://github.com/agda/agda/issues/4613).

BEAM is the name of the Erlang Virtual Machine and, as far as we're concerned, from a packaging perspective, all languages that run on the BEAM are interchangeable. That which varies, like the build system, is transparent to users of any given BEAM package, so we make no distinction.

Dotnet provides several different frameworks (E.g dotnetcore, aspnetcore, etc.) as well as many versions for a given framework. Normally, dotnet is able to fetch a framework and install it relative to the executable. However, this would mean writing to the nix store in nixpkgs, which is read-only.

Several versions of Ruby interpreters are available on Nix, as well as over 250 gems and many applications written in Ruby. The attribute `ruby` refers to the default Ruby interpreter, which is currently MRI 2.6. It's also possible to refer to specific versions, e.g. `ruby_2_y`, `jruby`, or `mruby`.

Since not all gems have executables like `nokogiri`, it's usually more convenient to use the `withPackages` function like this: `ruby.withPackages (p: with p; [ nokogiri ])`.

In most cases, you'll already have a `Gemfile.lock` listing all your dependencies. This can be used to generate a `gemset.nix` which is used to fetch the gems and combine them into a single environment. The reason why you need to have a separate file for this, is that Nix requires you to have a checksum for each input to your build. Since the `Gemfile.lock` that `bundler` generates doesn't provide us with checksums, we have to first download each gem, calculate its SHA256, and store it in this separate file.

Finally, `localSystem.system` is also _impurely_ inferred based on the platform evaluation occurs.

### Implementation of dependencies {#ssec-cross-dependency-implementation}

|
||||
The categories of dependencies developed in <xref linkend="ssec-cross-dependency-categorization"/> are specified as lists of derivations given to `mkDerivation`, as documented in <xref linkend="ssec-stdenv-dependencies"/>. In short, each list of dependencies for "host → target" of "foo → bar" is called `depsFooBar`, with exceptions for backwards compatibility that `depsBuildHost` is instead called `nativeBuildInputs` and `depsHostTarget` is instead called `buildInputs`. Nixpkgs is now structured so that each `depsFooBar` is automatically taken from `pkgsFooBar`. (These `pkgsFooBar`s are quite new, so there is no special case for `nativeBuildInputs` and `buildInputs`.) For example, `pkgsBuildHost.gcc` should be used at build-time, while `pkgsHostTarget.gcc` should be used at run-time.

|

Now, for most of Nixpkgs's history, there were no `pkgsFooBar` attributes, and most packages have not been refactored to use it explicitly. Prior to those, there were just `buildPackages`, `pkgs`, and `targetPackages`. Those are now redefined as aliases to `pkgsBuildHost`, `pkgsHostTarget`, and `pkgsTargetTarget`. It is acceptable, even recommended, to use them for libraries to show that the host platform is irrelevant.

Note how all the invariants regarding the mapping between dependency and depending packages' build host and target platforms are preserved. `pkgsBuildTarget` and `pkgsHostHost` are more complex in that the stage fitting the requirements isn't always a fixed chain of "prevs" and "nexts" away (modulo the "saturating" self-references at the ends).

One can then imagine any sequence of platforms such that there are bootstrap stages with their 3 platforms determined by "sliding a window" that is the 3 tuple through the sequence. This was the original model for bootstrapping. Without a target platform (assume a better world where all compilers are multi-target and all standard libraries are built in their own derivation), this is sufficient. Conversely if one wishes to cross compile "faster", with a "Canadian Cross" bootstrapping stage where `build != host != target`, more bootstrapping stages are needed since no sliding window provides the pesky `pkgsBuildTarget` package set since it skips the Canadian cross stage's "host".

Thirdly, it is because everything target-mentioning only exists to accommodate compilers with lousy build systems that insist on the compiler itself and standard library being built together. Of course that is bad because bigger derivations means longer rebuilds. It is also problematic because it tends to make the standard libraries less like other libraries than they could be, complicating code and build systems alike. Because of the other problems, and because of these innate disadvantages, compilers ought to be packaged another way where possible.

The main motivation is to save disk space by reducing runtime closure sizes; consequently also sizes of substituted binaries get reduced. Splitting can be used to have more granular runtime dependencies, for example the typical reduction is to split away development-only files, as those are typically not needed during runtime. As a result, closure sizes of many packages can get reduced to a half or even much less.

The reduction effects could be instead achieved by building the parts in completely separate derivations. That would often additionally reduce build-time closures, but it tends to be much harder to write such derivations, as build systems typically assume all parts are being built at once. This compromise approach of single source package producing multiple binary packages is also utilized often by rpm and deb.

That is built-in, but other setup is done via a pluggable mechanism that works in conjunction with these dependency attributes. See <xref linkend="ssec-setup-hooks" /> for details.

Overall, the unifying theme here is that propagation shouldn’t be introducing transitive dependencies involving platforms the depending package is unaware of. \[One can imagine the dependending package asking for dependencies with the platforms it knows about; other platforms it doesn’t know how to ask for. The platform description in that scenario is a kind of unforagable capability.\] The offset bounds checking and definition of `mapOffset` together ensure that this is the case. Discovering a new offset is discovering a new platform, and since those platforms weren’t in the derivation “spec” of the needing package, they cannot be relevant. From a capability perspective, we can imagine that the host and target platforms of a package are the capabilities a package requires, and the depending package must provide the capability to the dependency.

The `hostOffset` variable is defined with the current dependency’s host offset `targetOffset` with its target offset, before its setup hook is sourced. Additionally, since most environment hooks don’t care about the target platform, that means the setup hook can append to the right bash array by doing something like
|
||||
|
||||
```{.bash}
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
addEnvHooks "$hostOffset" myBashFunction
|
||||
```

|
|||
|
||||
First, let’s cover some setup hooks that are part of Nixpkgs default stdenv. This means that they are run for every package built using `stdenv.mkDerivation`. Some of these are platform specific, so they may run on Linux but not Darwin or vice-versa.
|
||||
|
||||
### `move-docs.sh`
|
||||
### `move-docs.sh` {#move-docs.sh}
|
||||
|
||||
This setup hook moves any installed documentation to the `/share` subdirectory directory. This includes the man, doc and info directories. This is needed for legacy programs that do not know how to use the `share` subdirectory.
|
||||
|
||||
### `compress-man-pages.sh`
|
||||
### `compress-man-pages.sh` {#compress-man-pages.sh}
|
||||
|
||||
This setup hook compresses any man pages that have been installed. The compression is done using the gzip program. This helps to reduce the installed size of packages.
|
||||
|
||||
### `strip.sh`
|
||||
### `strip.sh` {#strip.sh}
|
||||
|
||||
This runs the strip command on installed binaries and libraries. This removes unnecessary information like debug symbols when they are not needed. This also helps to reduce the installed size of packages.
|
||||
|
||||
### `patch-shebangs.sh`
|
||||
### `patch-shebangs.sh` {#patch-shebangs.sh}
|
||||
|
||||
This setup hook patches installed scripts to use the full path to the shebang interpreter. A shebang interpreter is the first commented line of a script telling the operating system which program will run the script (e.g `#!/bin/bash`). In Nix, we want an exact path to that interpreter to be used. This often replaces `/bin/sh` with a path in the Nix store.
|
||||
|
||||
### `audit-tmpdir.sh`
|
||||
### `audit-tmpdir.sh` {#audit-tmpdir.sh}
|
||||
|

This verifies that no references are left from the install binaries to the directory used to build those binaries. This ensures that the binaries do not need things outside the Nix store. This is currently supported in Linux only.

|
||||
This setup hook moves any binaries installed in the `sbin/` subdirectory into `bin/`. In addition, a link is provided from `sbin/` to `bin/` for compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
### `move-lib64.sh`
|
||||
### `move-lib64.sh` {#move-lib64.sh}
|
||||
|

This setup hook moves any libraries installed in the `lib64/` subdirectory into `lib/`. In addition, a link is provided from `lib64/` to `lib/` for compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
### `move-systemd-user-units.sh`
|
||||
### `move-systemd-user-units.sh` {#move-systemd-user-units.sh}
|
||||
|
||||
This setup hook moves any systemd user units installed in the `lib/` subdirectory into `share/`. In addition, a link is provided from `share/` to `lib/` for compatibility. This is needed for systemd to find user services when installed into the user profile.
|

### `set-source-date-epoch-to-latest.sh`
|
||||
### `set-source-date-epoch-to-latest.sh` {#set-source-date-epoch-to-latest.sh}

The Bintools Wrapper wraps the binary utilities for a bunch of miscellaneous purposes. These are GNU Binutils when targetting Linux, and a mix of cctools and GNU binutils for Darwin. \[The “Bintools” name is supposed to be a compromise between “Binutils” and “cctools” not denoting any specific implementation.\] Specifically, the underlying bintools package, and a C standard library (glibc or Darwin’s libSystem, just for the dynamic loader) are all fed in, and dependency finding, hardening (see below), and purity checks for each are handled by the Bintools Wrapper. Packages typically depend on CC Wrapper, which in turn (at run time) depends on the Bintools Wrapper.

A problem with this final task is that the Bintools Wrapper is honest and defines `LD` as `ld`. Most packages, however, firstly use the C compiler for linking, secondly use `LD` anyways, defining it as the C compiler, and thirdly, only so define `LD` when it is undefined as a fallback. This triple-threat means Bintools Wrapper will break those packages, as LD is already defined as the actual linker which the package won’t override yet doesn’t want to use. The workaround is to define, just for the problematic package, `LD` as the C compiler. A good way to do this would be `preConfigure = "LD=$CC"`.

|

### breakpointHook {#breakpointhook}
|
||||
|

This hook will make a build pause instead of stopping when a failure happens. It prevents nix from cleaning up the build environment immediately and allows the user to attach to a build environment using the `cntr` command. Upon build error it will print instructions on how to use `cntr`, which can be used to enter the environment for debugging. Installing cntr and running the command will provide shell access to the build sandbox of failed build. At `/var/lib/cntr` the sandboxed filesystem is mounted. All commands and files of the system are still accessible within the shell. To execute commands from the sandbox use the cntr exec subcommand. `cntr` is only supported on Linux-based platforms. To use it first add `cntr` to your `environment.systemPackages` on NixOS or alternatively to the root user on non-NixOS systems. Then in the package that is supposed to be inspected, add `breakpointHook` to `nativeBuildInputs`.

### libiconv, libintl {#libiconv-libintl}
|

|

A few libraries automatically add to `NIX_LDFLAGS` their library, making their symbols automatically available to the linker. This includes libiconv and libintl (gettext). This is done to provide compatibility between GNU Linux, where libiconv and libintl are bundled in, and other systems where that might not be the case. Sometimes, this behavior is not desired. To disable this behavior, set `dontAddExtraLibs`.

### cmake

### cmake {#cmake}
|
||||
|
||||
Overrides the default configure phase to run the CMake command. By default, we use the Make generator of CMake. In addition, dependencies are added automatically to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH so that packages are correctly detected by CMake. Some additional flags are passed in to give similar behavior to configure-based packages. You can disable this hook’s behavior by setting configurePhase to a custom value, or by setting dontUseCmakeConfigure. cmakeFlags controls flags passed only to CMake. By default, parallel building is enabled as CMake supports parallel building almost everywhere. When Ninja is also in use, CMake will detect that and use the ninja generator.

Overrides the build and install phases to run the "xcbuild" command. This hook is needed when a project only comes with build files for the XCode build system. You can disable this behavior by setting buildPhase and configurePhase to a custom value. xcbuildFlags controls flags passed only to xcbuild.

This is especially useful for old, crufty code. Additionally, format strings in writable memory that contain `%n` are blocked. If an application depends on such a format string, it will need to be worked around.

|

### `strictoverflow` {#strictoverflow}
|
||||
|
||||
Signed integer overflow is undefined behaviour according to the C standard. If it happens, it is an error in the program as it should check for overflow before it can happen, not afterwards. GCC provides built-in functions to perform arithmetic with overflow checking, which are correct and faster than any custom implementation. As a workaround, the option `-fno-strict-overflow` makes gcc behave as if signed integer overflows were defined.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### `relro`
|
||||
### `relro` {#relro}
|
||||
|
||||
Adds the `-z relro` linker option. During program load, several ELF memory sections need to be written to by the linker, but can be turned read-only before turning over control to the program. This prevents some GOT (and .dtors) overwrite attacks, but at least the part of the GOT used by the dynamic linker (.got.plt) is still vulnerable.
|
||||
|
||||
This flag can break dynamic shared object loading. For instance, the module systems of Xorg and OpenCV are incompatible with this flag. In almost all cases the `bindnow` flag must also be disabled and incompatible programs typically fail with similar errors at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
### `bindnow`
|
||||
### `bindnow` {#bindnow}
|
||||
|
||||
Adds the `-z bindnow` linker option. During program load, all dynamic symbols are resolved, allowing for the complete GOT to be marked read-only (due to `relro`). This prevents GOT overwrite attacks. For very large applications, this can incur some performance loss during initial load while symbols are resolved, but this shouldn’t be an issue for daemons.

While ASLR can already be enforced for data areas in the stack and heap (brk and mmap), the code areas must be compiled as position-independent. Shared libraries already do this with the `pic` flag, so they gain ASLR automatically, but binary .text regions need to be build with `pie` to gain ASLR. When this happens, ROP attacks are much harder since there are no static locations to bounce off of during a memory corruption attack.

This means that overriding the `name` attribute, in this example, *will not* change the value of the `url` attribute. Instead, we need to override both the `name` *and* `url` attributes.
