lib.attrsToList
Docs pulled from | This Revision | about 8 hours ago
Deconstruct an attrset to a list of name-value pairs as expected by builtins.listToAttrs.
Each element of the resulting list is an attribute set with these attributes:
name(string): The name of the attributevalue(any): The value of the attribute
The following is always true:
builtins.listToAttrs (attrsToList attrs) == attrs
The opposite is not always true. In general expect that
attrsToList (builtins.listToAttrs list) != list
This is because the listToAttrs removes duplicate names and doesn't preserve the order of the list.
Inputs
