Vincent Ambo 92c53fe982 feat(tvix/tests): check in Nix' language test suite This adds scaffolding code for running the Nix language test suite. The majority of eval-okay-* tests should eventually be runnable as-is by Tvix, however the eval-fail-* tests might not as we intend to have more useful error messages than upstream Nix.

Tvix Evaluator

This project implements an interpreter for the Nix programming language.

The interpreter aims to be compatible with nixpkgs, on the foundation of Nix 2.3.

Work on this project is extremely in-progress, and the state of the project in the public repository may not necessarily reflect the state of the private codebase, as we are slowly working on publishing it.

We expect this to have caught up in a handful of weeks (as of 2022-08-12).

Please contact TVL with any questions you might have.

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.
