/tr> 2020-12-21system: Allow separated /boot and encrypted root....* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (grub-configuration-file): New parameter store-crypto-devices. [crypto-devices]: New helper function. [builder]: Use crypto-devices. * gnu/machine/ssh.scm (roll-back-managed-host): Use boot-parameters-store-crypto-devices to provide its contents to the bootloader configuration generation process. * gnu/tests/install.scm (%encrypted-root-not-boot-os, %encrypted-root-not-boot-os): New os declaration. (%encrypted-root-not-boot-installation-script): New script, whose contents were initially taken from %encrypted-root-installation-script. (%test-encrypted-root-not-boot-os): New test. * gnu/system.scm (define-module): Export operating-system-bootoader-crypto-devices and boot-parameters-store-crypto-devices. (<boot-parameters>): Add field store-crypto-devices. (read-boot-parameters): Parse store-crypto-devices field. [uuid-sexp->uuid]: New helper function extracted from device-sexp->device. (operating-system-bootloader-crypto-devices): New function. (operating-system-bootcfg): Use operating-system-bootloader-crypto-devices to provide its contents to the bootloader configuration generation process. (operating-system-boot-parameters): Add store-crypto-devices to the generated boot-parameters. (operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise to the file with the serialized structure. * guix/scripts/system.scm (reinstall-bootloader): Use boot-parameters-store-crypto-devices to provide its contents to the bootloader configuration generation process. * tests/boot-parameters.scm (%default-store-crypto-devices): New variable. (%grub-boot-parameters, test-read-boot-parameters): Use %default-store-crypto-devices. (tests store-crypto-devices): New tests. Miguel Ángel Arruga Vivas 2020-11-01system: Add store-directory-prefix to boot-parameters....Fixes <http://issues.guix.gnu.org/44196> * gnu/machine/ssh.scm (roll-back-managed-host): Use boot-parameters-store-directory-prefix. * gnu/system.scm (define-module): Export boot-parameters-store-directory-prefix. (<boot-parameters>)[store-directory-prefix]: New field. It is used to generate the correct paths when /gnu/store is installed on a btrfs subvolume whose name doesn't match the final runtime path, as the bootloader doesn't have knowledge about the final mounting points. [boot-parameters-store-directory-prefix]: New accessor. (read-boot-parameters): Read directory-prefix from store field. (operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Add directory-prefix to store field. * guix/scripts/system.scm (reinstall-bootloader): Use boot-parameters-store-directory-prefix. * test/boot-parameters.scm (%default-btrfs-subvolume, %default-store-directory-prefix): New variables. (%grub-boot-parameters): Use %default-store-directory-prefix. (%default-operating-system): Use %default-btrfs-subvolume. (test-boot-parameters): Add directory-prefix. (test optional fields): Add test for directory-prefix. (test os store-directory-prefix): New test. Miguel Ángel Arruga Vivas 2020-10-18system: Add locale to boot-parameters....* gnu/system.scm (define-module)[export]: Add boot-parameters-locale. (<boot-parameters>)[locale]: New field. [boot-parameters-locale]: New accessor. (read-boot-parameters): Read locale field. (operating-system-boot-parameters): Provide operating-system locale to boot-parameters record. (opeating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise. * Makefile.am (SCM_TESTS): Add tests/boot-parameters.scm. * tests/boot-parameters.scm: New test file. Miguel Ángel Arruga Vivas mport: go: Improve synopsis and description parsing....* guix/import/go.scm (%strict-tokenizer?): Set parameter to #t. (go-path-escape): Redefine to prevent inlining. (http-get*): Replace by ... (http-fetch*): this ... (json-fetch*): New procedure. (go.pkg.dev-info): Use http-fetch*. (go-package-licenses): Rewrite in terms of go.pkg.dev-info. (go-package-description): Likewise. (go-package-synopsis): Likewise. (fetch-go.mod): Use the memoized http-fetch*. (parse-go.mod): Adjust to receive content as a string. (fetch-module-meta-data): Adjust to use http-fetch*. (go-module->guix-package): Adjust to the modified fetch-go.mod return value. [inputs]: Use propagated inputs, which is the most common situations for Go libraries. [description]: Beautify description. [licenses]: Do no check for #f. The result of the license parsing is always a list. * tests/go.scm: Adjust following above changes. Maxim Cournoyer 2021-03-10import: go: Compute the hash of Git checkouts....* guix/import/go.scm (vcs-file?, file-hash, git-checkout-hash): New procedures. (vcs->origin): Use 'git-checkout-hash' in the 'git case. Ludovic Courtès 2021-03-10import: Add Go importer....This patch adds a 'guix import go' command. * doc/guix.texi (Requirements): Mention Guile-Lib dependency. (Invoking guix import): Document 'guix import go'. * gnu/packages/package-management.scm (guix)[inputs, propagated-inputs]: Add GUILE-LIB. * guix/self.scm (compiled-guix)[guile-lib]: New variable. [dependencies]: Add it. (specification->package): Add "guile-lib". * guix/build-system/go.scm (go-version->git-ref): New procedure. * guix/import/go.scm, guix/scripts/import/go.scm, tests/go.scm: New files. * guix/scripts/import.scm: Declare subcommand guix import go * po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add 'guix/scripts/import/go.scm'. * Makefile.am (MODULES): Add 'guix/import/go.scm' and 'guix/scripts/import/go.scm'. (SCM_TESTS): Add 'tests/go.scm'.
