| | | | | | * doc/guix.texi (Primary URL): Move after "Specifying Channel Authorizations" since the audience is channel authors who've already taken care of authorizations.
* doc: Promote "Channels" as chapter and reorder.zimoun2020-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sectioning becomes: 1. Specifying Additional Channels (was 3.) 2. Using a Custom Guix Channel (was 2.) 3. Replicating Guix (was 9.) 4. Channel Authentication (was 1.) 5. Primary URL (was 7.) 6. Creating a Channel (reworded) 7. Package Modules in a Sub-directory (was 5.) 8. Declaring Channel Dependencies (was 4.) 9.

* packages: 'package-input-rewriting' has a #:deep? parameter.Ludovic Courtès2020-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | * guix/packages.scm (package-input-rewriting): Add #:deep? and pass it to 'package-mapping'. [replacement-property]: New variable. [rewrite]: Check it. [cut?]: New procedure. * tests/packages.scm ("package-input-rewriting"): Pass #:deep? #f and ensure implicit inputs were not rewritten. Avoid 'eq?' comparisons. ("package-input-rewriting, deep"): New test. * gnu/packages/guile.scm (package-for-guile-2.0, package-for-guile-3.0): Pass #:deep? #f.
* packages: 'package-input-rewriting/spec' can rewrite implicit dependencies.Ludovic Courtès2020-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change, '--with-input', '--with-graft', etc. also apply to implicit dependencies. Thus, it's now possible to do: guix build python-itsdangerous --with-input=python-wrapper=python@2 or: guix build hello --with-graft=glibc=glibc@2.29 Additionally, before, implicit inputs were not rewritten, which could lead to duplicates in the output of 'bag-transitive-inputs' (packages that are not 'eq?' but lead to the same derivation). This in turn would lead to unnecessary rebuilds when using '--with-input' & co. This change fixes it by ensuring even implicit inputs are rewritten. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42156>. * guix/packages.scm (package-input-rewriting/spec): Add #:deep? defaulting to #true, and pass it to 'package-mapping'. [replacement-property]: New variable. [rewrite]: Check that property and set it on the result of PROC. [cut?]: New procedure. * tests/packages.scm ("package-input-rewriting/spec"): Ensure implicit inputs were unchanged. ("package-input-rewriting/spec, partial match"): Pass #:deep? #f. ("package-input-rewriting/spec, deep") ("package-input-rewriting/spec, no duplicates"): New tests. (package/inherit): Move before use. * tests/guix-build.sh: Add tests. * tests/scripts-build.scm ("options->transformation, with-graft"): Compare dependencies by package name or derivation file name. * doc/guix.texi (Defining Packages): Adjust accordingly.
* packages: 'package-mapping' can recurse on implicit inputs.Ludovic Courtès2020-09-27
| | | | | | | | * guix/packages.scm (build-system-with-package-mapping): New procedure. (package-mapping): Add #:deep? and honor it. * tests/packages.scm ("package-mapping"): Compare the direct inputs of the bag of P0 and that of P1. ("package-mapping, deep"): New test.
* guix build: Add '--without-tests'.Ludovic Courtès2020-09-27
