We currently send two warnings in case of detecting dead code - W008 inside compile_dead_code, and a more detailed warning in all places that invoke compile_dead_code: ``` warning[W007]: useless operation on boolean: this expression is always false --> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:15 | 12079 | doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin; | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ warning[W008]: this code will never be executed --> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:24 | 12079 | doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin; | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ``` The place invoking `compile_dead_code` has more context to why the code is unused, so it's error message is much more useful. Stop emitting the less informative warning inside compile_dead_code (W008), and update the comment that we expect the caller to emit a warning. I kept W008 itself still around, in case we end up having places this will get used again.

Tvix Evaluator
This project implements an interpreter for the Nix programming language. You can experiment with an online version of the evaluator: tvixbolt.
The interpreter aims to be compatible with nixpkgs
, on the
foundation of Nix 2.3.
Important note: The evaluator is not yet feature-complete, and while the core mechanisms (compiler, runtime, ...) have stabilised somewhat, a lot of components are still changing rapidly.
Please contact TVL with any questions you might have.
Building tvix-eval
Please check the README.md
one level up for instructions on how to build this.
The evaluator itself can also be built with standard Rust tooling (i.e. cargo build
).
If you would like to clone only the evaluator and build it directly with Rust tooling, you can do:
git clone https://code.tvl.fyi/depot.git:/tvix/eval.git tvix-eval
cd tvix-eval && cargo build
Nix test suite
C++ Nix implements a language test suite in the form of Nix source code files, and their expected output. The coverage of this test suite is not complete, but we intend to be compatible with it.
We have ported the test suite to Tvix, but do not run it by default as we are not yet compatible with it.
You can run the test suite by enabling the nix_tests
feature in
Cargo:
cargo test --features nix_tests
rnix-parser
Tvix is written in memory of jD91mZM2, the author of rnix-parser who sadly passed away.
Tvix makes heavy use of rnix-parser in its bytecode compiler. The parser is now maintained by Nix community members.
