;;; Commentary:
;;;
;;; This module implements "G-expressions", or "gexps".  Gexps are like
;;; S-expressions (sexps), with two differences:
;;;
;;;   1. References (un-quotations) to derivations or packages in a gexp are
;;;      replaced by the corresponding output file name; in addition, the
;;;      'ungexp-native' unquote-like form allows code to explicitly refer to
;;;      the native code of a given package, in case of cross-compilation;
;;;
;;;   2. Gexps embed information about the derivations they refer to.
;;;
;;; Gexps make it easy to write to files Scheme code that refers to store
;;; items, or to write Scheme code to build derivations.
;;;
;;; Code:

;; "G expressions".

  "Return a derivation NAME that runs EXP (a gexp) with GUILE-FOR-BUILD (a
derivation) on SYSTEM; EXP is stored in a file called SCRIPT-NAME.  When
TARGET is true, it is used as the cross-compilation target triplet for
packages referred to by EXP.

MODULES is deprecated in favor of 'with-imported-modules'.  Its meaning is to
make MODULES available in the evaluation context of EXP; MODULES is a list of
names of Guile modules searched in MODULE-PATH to be copied in the store,
compiled, and made available in the load path during the execution of
EXP---e.g., '((guix build utils) (guix build gnu-build-system)).

GRAFT? determines whether packages referred to by EXP should be grafted when
applicable.

When REFERENCES-GRAPHS is true, it must be a list of tuples of one of the
following forms:

  (FILE-NAME PACKAGE)
  (FILE-NAME PACKAGE OUTPUT)
  (FILE-NAME DERIVATION)
  (FILE-NAME DERIVATION OUTPUT)
  (FILE-NAME STORE-ITEM)

The right-hand-side of each element of REFERENCES-GRAPHS is automatically made
an input of the build process of EXP.  In the build environment, each
FILE-NAME contains the reference graph of the corresponding item, in a simple
text format.

ALLOWED-REFERENCES must be either #f or a list of output names and packages.
In the latter case, the list denotes store items that the result is allowed to
refer to.  Any reference to another store item will lead to a build error.
Similarly for DISALLOWED-REFERENCES, which can list items that must not be
referenced by the outputs.

DEPRECATION-WARNINGS determines whether to show deprecation warnings while
compiling modules.  It can be #f, #t, or 'detailed.

The other arguments are as for 'derivation'."
