Takes 1 arguments

Create a copy of the given string where a single constant string context element is turned into a derivation deep string context element.

The store path that is the constant string context element should point to a valid derivation, and end in .drv.

The original string context element must not be empty or have multiple elements, and it must not have any other type of element other than a constant or derivation deep element. The latter is supported so this function is idempotent.

This is the opposite of builtins.unsafeDiscardOutputDependency.

This function is not defined in a .nix file. It is likely a builtins function or an alias of a builtins function. Builtins functions are predefined functions provided by Nix.

Implementation

This function is implemented in c++ and is part of the native nix runtime.
