Like `path + ("/" + string)` but safer, because it errors instead of returning potentially surprising results.
|

More specifically, it checks that the first argument is a [path value type](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/values.html#type-path"),
|
|
and that the second argument is a valid subpath string (see `lib.path.subpath.isValid`).

|
append /foo "bar/baz"

|
|
|
|
# subpaths don't need to be normalised
|
|
append /foo "./bar//baz/./"
|
|

|
|
|

# can append to root directory

# first argument needs to be a path value type
|

Laws:
|
|
|
|
- Idempotency - normalising multiple times gives the same result:
|
|
|
|
subpath.normalise (subpath.normalise p) == subpath.normalise p
|
|
|
|
- Uniqueness - there's only a single normalisation for the paths that lead to the same file system node:
|
|
|
|
subpath.normalise p != subpath.normalise q -> $(realpath ${p}) != $(realpath ${q})
|
|
|
|
- Don't change the result when appended to a Nix path value:
|
|
|
|
base + ("/" + p) == base + ("/" + subpath.normalise p)
|
|
|
|
- Don't change the path according to `realpath`:
|
|
|
|
$(realpath ${p}) == $(realpath ${subpath.normalise p})
|
|
|
|
- Only error on invalid subpaths:
|
|
|
|
builtins.tryEval (subpath.normalise p)).success == subpath.isValid p
|
|
|
|
Type:

|
subpath.normalise :: String -> String

|
|
|
|
# remove redundant `.` components
|
|
subpath.normalise "foo/./bar"
|
|
=> "./foo/bar"

|
|
|
# add leading `./`
|
|
subpath.normalise "foo/bar"
