lib.lists: add `replicate`
|
|
`replicate` returns n copies of an element as a list.
Co-Authored-By: Silvan Mosberger <contact@infinisil.com>

There are a number of different syntaxes used for attrset type
signatures in our doc strings, this change standardises upon one that
uses :: for specifying attribute type, and ; terminators to be
consistent with nix syntax. There are no bugs in the functions
themselves, just that different syntaxes may confuse new users.

builtins.groupBy is much more performant. It was introduced in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5715
|
|
The current implementation of `mutuallyExclusive` builds a new list with
length subtracted by one on every recursive call which is expensive. When
b is empty, the function still traverses a in its entirety before returning
a result.
The new implementation uses `any` to check if each element of list b is in
list a using `elem`. This maintains short circuiting when list a or b is empty
and has a worst case time complexity of O(nm).

This improves performance by ~30-40% for smaller test cases and makes
larger cases where my laptop would OOM pass in seconds.

Nix can perform static scope checking, but whenever code is inside
a `with` expression, the analysis breaks down, because it can't
know statically what's in the attribute set whose attributes were
brought into scope. In those cases, Nix has to assume that
everything works out.
Except it doesnt. Removing `with` from lib/ revealed an undefined
variable in an error message.
If that doesn't convince you that we're better off without `with`,
I can tell you that this PR results in a 3% evaluation performance
improvement because Nix can look up local variables by index.
This adds up with applications like the module system.
Furthermore, removing `with` makes the binding site of each
variable obvious, which helps with comprehension.

The main purpose is to bring attention to `flip map`, which improves
code readablity. It is useful when ad-hoc anonymous function
grows two or more lines in `map` application:
```
map (lcfg:
let port = lcfg.port;
portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
) (getListen cfg);
```
Compare this to `foreach`-style:
```
foreach (getListen cfg) (lcfg:
let port = lcfg.port;
portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
);
```
This is similar to Haskell's `for` (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.12.0.0/docs/Data-Traversable.html#v:for)

Updates documentation comments with extra information for nixdoc[1]

Since the `assertOneOf` uses `lib.generators`, they are not really trivial
anymore and should go into their own library file.

nixos: doc: implement related packages in the manual (again)
|
|
|

This does break the API of being able to import any lib file and get
its libs, however I'm not sure people did this.
I made this while exploring being able to swap out docFn with a stub
in #2305, to avoid functor performance problems. I don't know if that
is going to move forward (or if it is a problem or not,) but after
doing all this work figured I'd put it up anyway :)
Two notable advantages to this approach:
1. when a lib inherits another lib's functions, it doesn't
automatically get put in to the scope of lib
2. when a lib implements a new obscure functions, it doesn't
automatically get put in to the scope of lib
Using the test script (later in this commit) I got the following diff
on the API:
+ diff master fixed-lib
11764a11765,11766
> .types.defaultFunctor
> .types.defaultTypeMerge
11774a11777,11778
> .types.isOptionType
> .types.isType
11781a11786
> .types.mkOptionType
11788a11794
> .types.setType
11795a11802
> .types.types
This means that this commit _adds_ to the API, however I can't find a
way to fix these last remaining discrepancies. At least none are
_removed_.
Test script (run with nix-repl in the PATH):
#!/bin/sh
set -eux
repl() {
suff=${1:-}
echo "(import ./lib)$suff" \
| nix-repl 2>&1
}
attrs_to_check() {
repl "${1:-}" \
| tr ';' $'\n' \
| grep "\.\.\." \
| cut -d' ' -f2 \
| sed -e "s/^/${1:-}./" \
| sort
}
summ() {
repl "${1:-}" \
| tr ' ' $'\n' \
| sort \
| uniq
}
deep_summ() {
suff="${1:-}"
depth="${2:-4}"
depth=$((depth - 1))
summ "$suff"
for attr in $(attrs_to_check "$suff" | grep -v "types.types"); do
if [ $depth -eq 0 ]; then
summ "$attr" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./"
else
deep_summ "$attr" "$depth" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./"
fi
done
}
(
cd nixpkgs
#git add .
#git commit -m "Auto-commit, sorry" || true
git checkout fixed-lib
deep_summ > ../fixed-lib
git checkout master
deep_summ > ../master
)
if diff master fixed-lib; then
echo "SHALLOW MATCH!"
fi
(
cd nixpkgs
git checkout fixed-lib
repl .types
)

* lib: introduce imap0, imap1
For historical reasons, imap starts counting at 1 and it's not
consistent with the rest of the lib.
So for now we split imap into imap0 that starts counting at zero and
imap1 that starts counting at 1. And imap is marked as deprecated.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/c71e2d42359f9900ea2c290d141c0d606471da16#commitcomment-21873221
* replace uses of lib.imap
* lib: move imap to deprecated.nix

In order to better distinguish foldr from foldl the default name is changed to
foldr, but fold is still a synonym.
Additionally the docs are improved and examples added.

Throwing a message like "removed 2016-02-29 because unused and broken"
is unhelpful because it doesn't show what function was removed.
|
|
All these builtins are available since 1.10 or earlier (1.10 being the
lib/minver.nix)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both functions are broken and unused in the repo.
|
|
|
|
This fixes the quadratic complexity of functions like imap.
|
|
This function is redundant (we also have zipLists).
