Only considers the closure in term of `Realisation`, ignores all the
opaque inputs.
Dunno whether that’s the nicest solution, need to think it through a bit
In addition to being some ugly template trickery, it was also totally
useless as it was used in only one place where I could replace it by
just a few extra characters
Where a `RealisedPath` is a store path with its history, meaning either
an opaque path for stuff that has been directly added to the store, or a
`Realisation` for stuff that has been built by a derivation
This is a low-level refactoring that doesn't bring anything by itself
(except a few dozen extra lines of code :/ ), but raising the
abstraction level a bit is important on a number of levels:
- Commands like `nix build` have to query for the realisations after the
build is finished which is fragile (see
27905f12e4a7207450abe37c9ed78e31603b67e1 for example). Having them
oprate directly at the realisation level would avoid that
- Others like `nix copy` currently operate directly on (built) store
paths, but need a bit more information as they will need to register
the realisations on the remote side
Rather than storing the derivation outputs as `drvPath!outputName` internally,
store them as `drvHashModulo!outputName` (or `outputHash!outputName` for
fixed-output derivations).
This makes the storage slightly more opaque, but enables an earlier
cutoff in cases where a fixed-output dependency changes (but keeps the
same output hash) − same as what we already do for input-addressed
derivations.
For each known realisation, store:
- its output
- its output path
This comes with a set of needed changes:
- New `realisations` module declaring the types needed for describing
these mappings
- New `Store::registerDrvOutput` method registering all the needed informations
about a derivation output (also replaces `LocalStore::linkDeriverToPath`)
- new `Store::queryRealisation` method to retrieve the informations for a
derivations
This introcudes some redundancy on the remote-store side between
`wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` and `wopQueryRealisation`.
However we might need to keep both (regardless of backwards compat)
because we sometimes need to get some infos for all the outputs of a
derivation (where `wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` is handy), but all the
stores can't implement it − because listing all the outputs of a
derivation isn't really possible for binary caches where the server
doesn't allow to list a directory.
