* doc: Move list of build phases to "Build Phases".Ludovic Courtès2021-04-12
| | | | | | | | | Before this change, the 'gnu-build-system' phases were listed in the "Build Systems" section, and then summarized in the "Build Phases" section. This moves everything to "Build Phases". * doc/guix.texi (Build Systems): Move phase table to... (Build Phases): ... here. Rearrange surrounding text.
* services: Add ipfs-service-typeMaxime Devos2021-04-12

* import: go: Append version to symbol name in the pinned version mode.Maxim Cournoyer2021-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows importing packages with complicated version specific dependency chains without the package symbol names colliding. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix import): Document the --pin-versions option. Mention that a specific version can be imported. Remove the experimental warning. * guix/import/go.scm (go-module->guix-package-name)[version]: Add optional argument. Rewrite the character translation in terms of string-map. (go-module->guix-package): Conditionally use dependencies whose symbol include their version, based no the value of the PIN-VERSIONS? argument. * guix/import/utils.scm (package->definition): Add a new case where the full version string is appended to the package symbol. * guix/scripts/import.scm (guix-import): Correctly print forms starting with '(define-public [...]'. * guix/scripts/import/go.scm (guix-import-go): Conditionally include the version in the package symbols defined.
* doc: Quote a URL to avoid misinterpretation by the shell.Leo Famulari2021-04-09
| | | | | | | | | Otherwise, the shell tries to perform pattern-matching based on the "?" character. Reported by nij in #guix. * doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Add quotes around OPENPGP-SIGNING-KEY-URL.
* services: Add Laminar.Christopher Baines2021-04-09

* doc: Use the shell dollar substitution.zimoun2021-04-05
| | | | | | | | See: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/126927/have-backticks-i-e-cmd-in-sh-shells-been-deprecated * doc/guix.texi: Replace the shell backquote deprecated substitution by the dollar one.
* doc: Reorder "Channels with Substitutes".zimoun2021-04-05
| | | | | | | Ordering consistency introduced by 12871cc8db701a89f7f64303e1f16a8537a12561. * doc/guix.texi (Channels): Move section "Channels with Substitutes". Update the master menu.
* doc: Remind developers to build Guix.Leo Famulari2021-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet". Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too. * doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to run `make` when building Guix.
* services: guix-publish: Add zstd compression by default.Ludovic Courtès2021-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | That way, the default config with (advertises? #t) and without a cache will offer zstd-compressed substitutes, which should lead to much higher throughput than gzip. * gnu/services/base.scm (default-compression): When 'guix-publish-configuration-cache' returns true, use higher level compression ratios. Add "zstd". * doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Mention zstd.

* doc: Remove the guile-lib/htmlprag-fixed package.Maxim Cournoyer2021-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | This hotfix package is no longer necessary as the ability to parameterize the way htmlprag tokenizes HTML was added in guile-lib 0.2.7. * doc/build.scm (guile-lib/htmlprag-fixed): Remove variable. (html-manual-identifier-index): Replace guile-lib/htmlprag-fixed by guile-lib, and make set the %strict-tokenizer? parameter to #t. (syntax-highlighted-html): Likewise.

* gnu: Remove MongoDB.Léo Le Bouter2021-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mongodb 3.4.10 has unpatched CVEs and mongodb 3.4.24 has some files in the release tarball under the SSPL, therefore we cannot provide mongodb while upholding to good security standards. It turns out feff80cec3c97a3df2c20d300be12d67f79d4f22 was right since while the main license file wasnt altered to SSPL, some files in the tree contain SSPL headers. * gnu/packages/databases.scm (go-gopkg.in-mgo.v2): Remove. * gnu/packages/databases.scm (mongo-tools): Remove. * doc/guix.texi (mongodb-service-type): Remove. * gnu/tests/databases.scm (%test-mongodb, %mongodb-os, run-mongodb-test): Remove. * gnu/services/databases.scm (mongodb-configuration, mongodb-configuration?, mongodb-configuration-mongodb, mongodb-configuration-config-file, mongodb-configuration-data-directory, mongodb-service-type, %default-mongodb-configuration-file, %mongodb-accounts, mongodb-activation, mongodb-shepherd-service): Remove. * gnu/packages/databases.scm (mongodb): Remove.
* services/qemu-binfmt: Use the F flag and the static output of QEMU.Maxim Cournoyer2021-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/36117>. Before this change, the 'binfmt_misc' entries registered for QEMU would not be usable in container contexts outside of guix-daemon (without manually bind mounting file names). For example: $ docker run --rm arm32v7/debian true standard_init_linux.go:207: exec user process caused "no such file or directory" After this change, any container can make use of the QEMU binfmt_misc registrations, as their corresponding QEMU static binaries are fully pre-loaded by the kernel. * gnu/services/virtualization.scm (<qemu-platform>): Define using 'define-record-type*'. [flags]: New field, which defaults to "F" (fix binary). (%i386, %i486, %alpha, %arm, %armeb, %sparc, %sparc32plus, %ppc, %ppc64) (%ppc64le, %m68k, %mips, %mipsel, %mipsn32, %mipsn32el, %mips64, %mips64el) (%riscv32, %riscv64, %sh4, %sh4eb, %s390x, %aarch64, %hppa): Adjust. (qemu-binfmt-guix-chroot): Remove variable. (qemu-binfmt-service-type): Remove the qemu-binfmt-guix-chroot extension. * gnu/services/qemu-binfmt (qemu-platform->binfmt): Use the static output of QEMU. * doc/contributing.texi (Submitting Patches): Update doc. * doc/guix.texi (Virtualization Services): Update doc.
