[PATCH 0/4] 'guix pull -l' no longer displays package lists by default |
Date: |
Wed, 9 Feb 2022 23:12:37 +0100 |
Hi!
The other day on IRC zimoun noted that ‘guix pull -l’ doesn’t work for
them because it prints those long package lists, which incidentally
makes it slower.
This series changes ‘guix pull -l’ so that by default it only prints
channel info and news:

$ ./pre-inst-env guix pull -l

New `guix shell' command supersedes `guix environment'
commit 746584e0ca200e7bf51b139ceb36c19ea81d6ef1
A new `guix shell' command is now available. It is similar to `guix
environment', but with a
more convenient interface (`guix environment' is deprecated but will remain
available until
May, 1st 2023). The main difference compared to `guix environment' is that
the "ad hoc" mode
is the default. Thus, to create an interactive environment containing
Python, NumPy, and
SciPy, you would run:
guix shell python python-numpy python-scipy
To get a development environment for, say, Inkscape, pass the `-D' flag:
guix shell -D inkscape
Another difference is that running `guix shell' without arguments loads
`manifest.scm' or
`guix.scm' for the current directory or an ancestor, provided you allowed
it. The command
maintains a cache to speed up access to such environments.
Run `info "(guix) Invoking guix shell"' for more information.

One can pass ‘--details’ to get view new/upgraded packages:

$ ./pre-inst-env guix pull --detail -l

Last, ‘guix pull -l’ pipes its output to $PAGER by default.
Thoughts?

Ludovic Courtès (4):
pull: '--list-generations' doesn't list package changes by default.
ui: 'with-paginated-output-port' gives access to the wrapped port.
ui: 'display-generation' uses color when talking to a pager.
pull: '--list-generations' pipes its output to the pager.

Right, fixed.

It’s a bit more complicated since you don’t want to override previous
‘-l’ arguments, but I did that.

There’s a ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER above; you can see it with a trick I
recently learned: (set-face-background 'glyphless-char "red").
:-)
Anyway, pushed:
054ec2e242 pull: '--list-generations' pipes its output to the pager.
5b6e31b020 ui: 'display-generation' uses color when talking to a pager.
7ffcee1937 ui: 'with-paginated-output-port' gives access to the wrapped port.
b9df2e2b4d pull: '--list-generations' lists packages only with '--details'.
Thanks!
Ludo’.
