mkDerivedConfig : Option a -> (a -> Definition b) -> Definition b
Create config definitions with the same priority as the definition of another option.
This should be used for option definitions where one option sets the value of another as a convenience.
For instance a config file could be set with a `text` or `source` option, where text translates to a `source`
value using `mkDerivedConfig options.text (pkgs.writeText "filename.conf")`.
It takes care of setting the right priority using `mkOverride`.

recursiveUpdate does not produce an attrset until it has evaluated
both its arguments to weak head normal form.
nix-repl> lib.recursiveUpdate (throw "a") (throw "b")
error: b
nix-repl> lib.recursiveUpdate (throw "a") {}
error: a

Very confusing otherwise.

In hot code, the overhead (envs, applies) can matter.

Allows the simultaneous construction of top-level invocations and
submodule types.
This helps structure configuration systems integration code.

The message I originally implemented here was to catch a mixup of
`config' and `options' in a `types.submodule'[1]. However it looks
rather weird for a wrongly declared top-level option.
So I decided to throw
error: The option `foo' does not exist. Definition values:
- In `<unknown-file>':
{
bar = {
_type = "option";
type = {
_type = "option-type";
...
It seems as you're trying to declare an option by placing it into `config' rather than `options'!
for an expression like
with import ./lib;
evalModules {
modules = [
{
foo.bar = mkOption {
type = types.str;
};
}
];
}

so the underlaying use case of the preceding commit is so
generic, that we gain a lot in reasoning to give it an
appropriate name.
As the comment states:
image media needs to override host config short of mkForce

mkFixStrictness was never properly deprecated and should only be
removed after warning for some time.
This partially reverts commit 8fb9984690c878fcd768e967190957441de05d11.

This was deprecated in 2014 and is not used anywhere in the tree.

Previously, an option of type
attrsOf string
wouldn't throw a deprecation warning, even though the string type is
deprecated. This was because the deprecation warning trigger only looked
at the type of the option itself, not any of its subtypes.
This commit fixes this, causing each of the types deprecationMessages to
trigger for the option. This relies on the subtypes mkOptionType
attribute introduced in 26607a5a2e06653fec453c83d063cdfc4b59185f

I recently wrote some Nix code where I wrongly set a value to an option
which wasn't an actual option, but an attr-set of options. The mistake I
made can be demonstrated with an expression like this:
{
foo = { lib, pkgs, config, ... }: with lib; {
options.foo.bar.baz = mkOption {
type = types.str;
};
config.foo.bar = 23;
};
}
While it wasn't too hard to find the cause of the mistake for me, it was
necessary to have some practice in reading stack traces from the module
system since the eval-error I got was not very helpful:
error: --- TypeError --------------------------------------------------------- nix-build
at: (323:25) in file: /nix/store/3nm31brdz95pj8gch5gms6xwqh0xx55c-source/lib/modules.nix
322| foldl' (acc: module:
323| acc // (mapAttrs (n: v:
| ^
324| (acc.${n} or []) ++ f module v
value is an integer while a set was expected
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
I figured that such an error can be fairly confusing for someone who's
new to NixOS, so I decided to catch this case in th `byName` function in
`lib/modules.nix` by checking if the value to map through is an actual
attr-set. If not, a different error will be thrown.

For renames like
mkAliasOptionModule [ "services" "compton" ] [ "services" "picom" ]
where the target is an option set (like services.picom) instead of a single
option (like services.picom.enable), previously the renamed option type
was unset, leading to it being `types.unspecified`.
This changes it to be `types.submodule {}` instead, which makes more
sense.

assertions"

To avoid name clashes
Co-authored-by: Robert Hensing <robert@roberthensing.nl>

Previously the .enable option was used to encode the condition as well,
which lead to some oddness:
- In order to encode an assertion, one had to invert it
- To disable a check, one had to mkForce it
By introducing a separate .check option this is solved because:
- It can be used to encode assertions
- Disabling is done separately with .enable option, whose default can be
overridden without a mkForce
|
|
Honestly this option should probably just be removed
|
|
Previously this option was thought to be necessary to avoid infinite
recursion, but it actually isn't, since the check evaluation isn't fed
back into the module fixed-point.

This implements assertions/warnings supported by the module system directly,
instead of just being a NixOS option (see
nixos/modules/misc/assertions.nix).
This has the following benefits:
- It allows cleanly redoing the user interface. The new
implementation specifically allows disabling assertions or
converting them to warnings instead.
- Assertions/warnings can now be thrown easily from within
submodules, which previously wasn't possible and needed workarounds.

lib: Use Nix's static scope checking, fix error message, optimize

Since b08b0bcbbec77046e5a7082177cedc12fbf1dc6c, the function actually
causes an assertion error, not a warning.

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.

nixos: Data module imports
|

Previously if `_file` was specified by a module:
trace: warning: The type `types.string' of option `foo' defined in `/nix/store/yxhm2il5yrb92fldgriw0wyqh2kk9qyc-bug.nix' is deprecated. See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/66346 for better alternative types.
With this change:
trace: warning: The type `types.string' of option `foo' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/bug.nix' is deprecated. See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/66346 for better alternative types.
|
|
If multiple definitions are passed, this evaluates them all as if they
were the only one, for a better error message. In particular this won't
show module-internal properties like `_type = "override"` and co.

The vision here is that configuration tools can generate .json or .toml
files, which can be plugged into an existing configuration.
Eg:
{ lib, ... }:
{
imports = [
(lib.modules.importJSON ./hardware-configuration.json)
];
}
|
|
Previously the only way to deprecate a type was using
theType = lib.warn "deprecated" (mkOptionType ...)
This caused the warning to be emitted when the type was evaluated, but
the error didn't include which option actually used that type.
With this commit, types can specify a deprecationMessage, which when
non-null, is printed along with the option that uses the type

no options
An easy-to-make mistake when declaring e.g. a submodule is the accidental
confusion of `options` and `config`:
types.submodule {
config = {
foo = mkOption { /* ... */ };
};
}
However the error-message
The option `[definition 1-entry 1].foo' defined in `<expr.nix>' does not exist.
is fairly unhelpful because it seems as the options are declared at the
first sight. In fact, it took a colleague and me a while to track down such
a mistake a few days ago and we both agreed that this should be somehow caught
to save the time we spent debugging the module in question.
At first I decided to catch this error in the `submodules`-type directly
by checking whether `options` is undeclared, however this becomes fairly
complicated as soon as a submodule-declaration e.g. depends on existing
`config`-values which would've lead to some ugly `builtins.tryExec`-heuristic.
This patch now simply checks if the option's prefix has any options
defined if a point in evaluation is reached where it's clear that the
option in question doesn't exist. This means that this patch doesn't
change the logic of the module system, it only provides a more detailed
error in certain cases:
The option `[definition 1-entry 1].foo' defined in `<expr.nix>' does not exist.
However it seems as there are no options defined in [definition 1-entry 1]. Are you sure you've
declared your options properly? This happens if you e.g. declared your options in `types.submodule'
under `config' rather than `options'.

The refactoring in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/fd75dc876586bde8cdb683a6952a41132e8db166
introduced a mistake in the error message that doesn't show the full
context anymore. E.g. with this module:
options.foo.bar = lib.mkOption {
type = lib.types.submodule {
baz = 10;
};
default = {};
};
You'd get the error
The option `baz' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/config.nix' does not exist.
instead of the previous
The option `foo.bar.baz' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/config.nix' does not exist.
This commit undoes this regression
