[]{#sec-fileset}
|
||
|
||
The [`lib.fileset`](#sec-functions-library-fileset) library allows you to work with _file sets_.
|
||
A file set is a (mathematical) set of local files that can be added to the Nix store for use in Nix derivations.
|
||
File sets are easy and safe to use, providing obvious and composable semantics with good error messages to prevent mistakes.
|
||
|
||
# Overview {#sec-fileset-overview}
|
||
|
||
Basics:
|
||
- [Implicit coercion from paths to file sets](#sec-fileset-path-coercion)
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.maybeMissing`](#function-library-lib.fileset.maybeMissing):
|
||
|
||
Create a file set from a path that may be missing.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.trace`](#function-library-lib.fileset.trace)/[`lib.fileset.traceVal`](#function-library-lib.fileset.trace):
|
||
|
||
Pretty-print file sets for debugging.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource):
|
||
|
||
Add files in file sets to the store to use as derivation sources.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.toList`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toList):
|
||
|
||
The list of files contained in a file set.
|
||
|
||
Combinators:
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.union`](#function-library-lib.fileset.union)/[`lib.fileset.unions`](#function-library-lib.fileset.unions):
|
||
|
||
Create a larger file set from all the files in multiple file sets.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.intersection`](#function-library-lib.fileset.intersection):
|
||
|
||
Create a smaller file set from only the files in both file sets.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.difference`](#function-library-lib.fileset.difference):
|
||
|
||
Create a smaller file set containing all files that are in one file set, but not another one.
|
||
|
||
Filtering:
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.fileFilter`](#function-library-lib.fileset.fileFilter):
|
||
|
||
Create a file set from all files that satisisfy a predicate in a directory.
|
||
|
||
Utilities:
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.fromSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.fromSource):
|
||
|
||
Create a file set from a `lib.sources`-based value.
|
||
|
||
- [`lib.fileset.gitTracked`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTracked)/[`lib.fileset.gitTrackedWith`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTrackedWith):
|
||
|
||
Create a file set from all tracked files in a local Git repository.
|
||
|
||
If you need more file set functions,
|
||

# Implicit coercion from paths to file sets {#sec-fileset-path-coercion}
|
||
|
||
All functions accepting file sets as arguments can also accept [paths](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values.html#type-path) as arguments.
|
||
Such path arguments are implicitly coerced to file sets containing all files under that path:
|
||
- A path to a file turns into a file set containing that single file.
|
||
- A path to a directory turns into a file set containing all files _recursively_ in that directory.
|
||
|
||
If the path points to a non-existent location, an error is thrown.
|
||
|
||
::: {.note}
|
||
Just like in Git, file sets cannot represent empty directories.
|
||
Because of this, a path to a directory that contains no files (recursively) will turn into a file set containing no files.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
:::{.note}
|
||
File set coercion does _not_ add any of the files under the coerced paths to the store.
|
||
Only the [`toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource) function adds files to the Nix store, and only those files contained in the `fileset` argument.
|
||
This is in contrast to using [paths in string interpolation](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values.html#type-path), which does add the entire referenced path to the store.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
## Example {#sec-fileset-path-coercion-example}
|
||
|
||
Assume we are in a local directory with a file hierarchy like this:
|
||
```
|
||
├─ a/
|
||
│ ├─ x (file)
|
||
│ └─ b/
|
||
│ └─ y (file)
|
||
└─ c/
|
||
└─ d/
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Here's a listing of which files get included when different path expressions get coerced to file sets:
|
||
- `./.` as a file set contains both `a/x` and `a/b/y` (`c/` does not contain any files and is therefore omitted).
|
||
- `./a` as a file set contains both `a/x` and `a/b/y`.
|
||
- `./a/x` as a file set contains only `a/x`.
|
||
- `./a/b` as a file set contains only `a/b/y`.
|
||
- `./c` as a file set is empty, since neither `c` nor `c/d` contain any files.

# Inputs
|

`predicate`

|

: The predicate function to call on all files contained in given file set.

A file is included in the resulting file set if this function returns true for it.

This function is called with an attribute set containing these attributes:

- `name` (String): The name of the file
|
||
|
||
- `type` (String, one of `"regular"`, `"symlink"` or `"unknown"`): The type of the file.

This matches result of calling [`builtins.readFileType`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-readFileType) on the file's path.

||
- `hasExt` (String -> Bool): Whether the file has a certain file extension.
|
||
`hasExt ext` is true only if `hasSuffix ".${ext}" name`.
|
||
|
||
This also means that e.g. for a file with name `.gitignore`,

`hasExt "gitignore"` is true.

|

Other attributes may be added in the future.

/**
|

Create a file set containing all [Git-tracked files](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Recording-Changes-to-the-Repository) in a repository.
|
||
The first argument allows configuration with an attribute set,
|
||
while the second argument is the path to the Git working tree.
|
||
|
||
`gitTrackedWith` does not perform any filtering when the path is a [Nix store path](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/store/store-path.html#store-path) and not a repository.
|
||
In this way, it accommodates the use case where the expression that makes the `gitTracked` call does not reside in an actual git repository anymore,
|
||
and has presumably already been fetched in a way that excludes untracked files.
|
||
Fetchers with such equivalent behavior include `builtins.fetchGit`, `builtins.fetchTree` (experimental), and `pkgs.fetchgit` when used without `leaveDotGit`.
|
||
|
||
If you don't need the configuration,
|
||
you can use [`gitTracked`](#function-library-lib.fileset.gitTracked) instead.
|
||
|
||
This is equivalent to the result of [`unions`](#function-library-lib.fileset.unions) on all files returned by [`git ls-files`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-ls-files)
|
||
(which uses [`--cached`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-ls-files#Documentation/git-ls-files.txt--c) by default).
|

|
||
:::{.warning}
|
||
Currently this function is based on [`builtins.fetchGit`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/builtins.html#builtins-fetchGit)
|
||
As such, this function causes all Git-tracked files to be unnecessarily added to the Nix store,
|
||
without being re-usable by [`toSource`](#function-library-lib.fileset.toSource).
|
||
|
||
This may change in the future.
