2021-01-20doc: add function argument order convention (#110060)V
* doc: add function argument order convention Ordering by usage is the de facto ordering given to arguments. It's logical, and makes finding argument usage easier. Putting lib first is common in NixOS modules, so it's reasonable to mirror this in nixpkgs proper. Additionally, it's not a package as such, has zero dependencies, and can be found used anywhere in a derivation. * doc: clean up usage of lib

2021-01-10treewide: simplify pkgs.stdenv.lib -> pkgs.libDominik Xaver Hörl
The library does not depend on stdenv, that `stdenv` exposes `lib` is an artifact of the ancient origins of nixpkgs.

2021-01-10doc: add "prefer lib over stdenv.lib" conventionAlyssa Ross
I think we should have something in the manual people can point to about this, to avoid rehashing it over and over in PRs. "stdenv.lib" makes it look like lib is part of stdenv, which it isn't, and makes it even more confusing as a newcomer to figure out what stdenv is (and isn't).

2021-01-03Rework androidenv package generationnuminit
androidenv did not previously write license files, which caused certain gradle-based Android tools to fail. Restructure androidenv's list of Android packages into a single repo.json file to prevent duplication and enable us to extract the EULA texts, which we then hash with builtins.hashString to produce the license files that Android gradle tools look for. Remove includeDocs and lldbVersions, as these have been removed from the Android package repositories. Improve documentation and examples.
2021-01-02r-modules: update cran and bioc packagesTikhon Jelvis
The last snapshot was 4 months ago (2020-08-19). I also found that I needed newer definitions when I was trying to fix the R arrow package. This update required a couple of manual changes: 1. Removing a few deleted packages from default.nix 2. Renaming the "assert" package to "r_assert" in generate-r-packages.R because "assert" is a keyword in Nix

2021-01-01doc: explicit Markdown anchors for top-level headings; remove metadataRyan Mulligan
I used the existing anchors generated by Docbook, so the anchor part should be a no-op. This could be useful depending on the infrastructure we choose to use, and it is better to be explicit than rely on Docbook's id generating algorithms. I got rid of the metadata segments of the Markdown files, because they are outdated, inaccurate, and could make people less willing to change them without speaking with the author.

2020-12-15doc/cross-compilation: Remove confusing re-explanationRobert Hensing
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/106950 > They way it's worded says buildInputs are for build-time and nativeBuildInputs are for run-time. The other documentation leads me to believe it is the other way around.
