hnix v0.11.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-12-09 // over 2 years ago

  • (diff) 0.11.1 (2020-12-09)

    • ➕ Additional:
      • (link) Nix/Builtins: isString fixed - It used to return True for values coercible to string like derivations and paths. It only accepts string values now.
      • (link) Nix/Builtins: substring fixed - Negative lengths used to capture an empty string. Now they capture the whole rmeainder of the string.
      • (link) Nix/Effects: pathExists fixed - Now also works with directories.
      • (link) Nix/Parser: -> is now properly right-associative (was non-associative).
      • (link) Nix/Parser: Nix assert parser (nixAssert function) now accepts top-level Nix format also (which means also accepts all kinds of statements), before that it accepted only regular Nix expressions.
      • (link) Nix/Render: renderLocation now also shows/handles location of errors in raw strings.
