Hi all,
It has been two weeks since I started working on
the project and I thought I will give you all a quick
update regarding it.
`build-derivation` is now using `call-with-container`
and it seems to work well. `build-derivation` assumes
that all the inputs needed for the derivation is already
built and ready. As a next step I wanted to try and build
the `inputDrvs` if the inputs are missing.
I looked through the C++ code to find out how exactly
this is done and I have a good understanding of it now.
I plan to emulate the behaviour of the C++ code for
the entire derivation building pipeline.
I spent a lot of time browsing the C++ code base and had
to keep going back to it often, since I had trouble keeping
the C++ code flow in memory. So, I thought it would be
worthwhile to write some detailed notes on the C++ daemon
code base that I can refer to while coding. The notes I made
If anybody find any mistakes in those notes kindly let me know.
