Eelco Dolstra ee401afad8 * Mode --parse-only' to parse the input (on stdin, -'), and print
out the AST as an ATerm.
* Mode `--eval-only' to parse and evaluate the input, and print the
  resulting normal form as an ATerm.

Neither of these modes require store/DB write permission.

Eelco Dolstra 638ce339a5 * Nix-instantiate now accepts sets of derivations (just like nix-env). 2004-07-01 14:25:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 59b94ee18a * When something goes wrong in the evaluation of a Nix expression,
print a nice backtrace of the stack, rather than vomiting a gigantic
  (and useless) aterm on the screen.  Example:

    error: while evaluating file `.../pkgs/system/test.nix':
    while evaluating attribute `subversion' at `.../pkgs/system/all-packages-generic.nix', line 533:
    while evaluating function at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 1:
    assertion failed at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 13

  Since the Nix expression language is lazy, the trace may be
  misleading.  The purpose is to provide a hint as to the location of
  the problem.

Eelco Dolstra 9b44480612 * Use a map to lookup primops.
* Various performance improvements in the evaluator.
* Do not link against unused (and missing!) libraries (-lsglr, etc.).

Eelco Dolstra 078e20885e * Help text for all (non-script) programs, so no more:
$ nix-instantiate --help
error: unknown flag `--help`
Try `nix-instantiate --help' for more information.

that it can be used by multiple programs.
