The previous package didn't build properly due to a bug in the build
script, and the nixos module didn't evaluate due to missing descriptions
in the options. This fixes both issues.
It also adds missing command-line options that weren't able to be set
and properly converts bools to the strings exhibitor expects.
The helper tool had a very early check whether the automatically created
CA key/cert are available and thus it would abort if the key was
unavailable even though we don't need or even want to have the CA key.
Unfortunately our NixOS test didn't catch this, because it was just
switching from a configuration with an automatically created CA to a
manual configuration without deleting the generated keys and certs.
This is done now in the tests and it's also fixed in the helper tool.

This change fixes two major issues:
1. If you don't use SIGQUIT to stop Plex it will corrupt its own
database :(
2. Newer versions of Plex keep metadata in the
`com.plexapp.plugins.library.db` database. This is the file that
we copy into `/var/lib/plex/.skeleton`. If we copy the empty
database on top of this one the user will lose their entire
library metadata. This change skips the copy if the file
already exists.
The implicit behavior of pulling it out of the classpath seemed not
to work properly and could be thrown off by other things on the
classpath also providing the properties file. This guarantees that
our settings stick.
This is deliberate because using the taskd binary to configure
Taskserver has a good chance of messing up permissions.
The nixos-taskserver tool now can manage even manual configurations, so
there really is no need anymore to expose the taskd binary.
If people still want to use the taskd binary at their own risk they can
still add taskserver to systemPackages themselves.

Putting an include directive in the configuration file referencing a
store path with the real configuration file has the disavantage that
once we change the real configuration file the store path is also a
different one.
So we would have to replace that include directive with the new
configuration file, which is very much error-prone, because whenever
taskd modifies the configuration file on its own it generates a new one
with *only* the key/value options and without any include directives.
Another problem is that we only added the include directive on the first
initalization, so whenever there is *any* configuration change, it won't
affect anything.
We're now passing all the configuration options via command line,
because taskd treats everything in the form of --<name>=<value> to be a
configuration directive.
This also has the effect that we now no longer have extraConfig, because
configuration isn't a file anymore.
Instead we now have an attribute set that is mapped down to
configuration options.
Unfortunately this isn't so easy with the way taskd is configured,
because there is an option called "server" and also other options like
"server.cert", "server.key" and so on, which do not map very well to
attribute sets.
So we have an exception for the "server" option, which is now called
"server.listen", because it specifies the listening address.

The helper tool so far was only intended for use in automatic PKI
handling, but it also is very useful if you have an existing CA.
One of the main advantages is that you don't need to specify the data
directory anymore and the right permissions are also handled as well.
Another advantage is that we now have an uniform management tool for
both automatic and manual config, so the documentation in the NixOS
manual now applies to the manual PKI config as well.

The GeoIP databases from MaxMind have no stable URLs and change every
month (or so). Our current method of packaging these database in Nix and
playing catch-up with ever-changing file hashes is a bad idea. For
instance, it makes it impossible to realize old NixOS configurations.
This patch adds a NixOS service that periodically updates the GeoIP
databases in /var/lib/geoip-databases. Moving NixOS modules over can be
done in later patches.
I tried adding MD5 check, but not all databases have them, so i skipped
it. We are downloading over HTTPS though, it should be good. I also
tried adding zip support, but the first zip file I extracted had a
different filename inside than the archive name, which breaks an
assumption in this service, so I skipped that too.
Changes v9 -> v10:
- Pass "--max-time" to curl to set upper bound on downloads (ensures
no indefinite hanging if there's problem with networking).
Timeout for network connectivity check: 60s.
Timeout for geoip database (each): 15m.
Changes v8 -> v9:
- Mention the random timer delay in the documentation for the
'interval' option.
Changes v7 -> v8:
- Add "RemainAfterExit=true" for the setup service, so it won't be
restarted needlessly. (Thanks @danbst!)
Changes v6 -> v7:
- Add --skip-existing flag to geoip-updater, which skips updating
existing database files. Pass that flag when we run the service on
boot (and on any NixOS configuration change).
(IMHO, this is somewhat a workaround for systemd persistent timers
not being triggered immediately when a timer has never expired
before. But it does have the nice side effect of ensuring that the
installed databases always correspond to the configured ones, since
the service is now always run after configuration changes.)
Changes v5 -> v6:
- Update database files atomically (per DB)
- If a database is removed from the configuration, it'll be removed
from /var/lib/geoip-databases too (on next run).
- Add NixOS module assertion so that if user inputs non- .gz or .xz
file there will be a build time error instead of runtime.
- Run updater as user "nobody" instead of "root".
- Rename NixOS service from "geoip-databases" to "geoip-updater".
- Drop RemainAfterExit, or else the timer won't trigger the unit.
- Bring back "curl --fail", or else we won't catch and log curl
failures.
Changes v4 -> v5:
- Add "GeoLite2-City.mmdb.gz" to default database list.
Changes v3 -> v4:
- Remove unneeded geoip-updater-setup.service after adding
'wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ]' directly to
geoip-updater.service
- Drop unneeded "Service" name from service descriptions.
Changes v2 -> v3:
- Network may be down when starting from a cold boot, so try a few
times. Possibly, if using systemd-networkd, it'll pass on the first
try. But with default DHCP on NixOS, the service is started before
hostnames can be resolved and thus we need a few extra seconds.
- Add error handling and mark service as failed if fatal error.
- Add proper syslog log levels.
- Add RandomizedDelaySec=3600 to the timer to not put high load on the
MaxMind servers. Suggested by @Mic92.
- Set RemainAfterExit on geoip-updater.service instead of
geoip-updater-setup.service. (The latter is only a proxy that pulls
in the former service).
Changes v1 -> v2:

nixos/geoip-databases: add `databases` option and fix initial setup
There were two great issues when using this service:
- When you just enable service, databases aren't downloaded, they are
downloaded when timer triggers. Fixed this with automatic download on
first system activation.
- When there is no internet, updater outputs nothing to logs, which is
IMO misbehavior. Fixed this with removing `--fail` option, better be
explicit here.
Pushing to gogs only works if the `gogs` user's shell is `bash`. For error and
solution, refer to [this SO thread](http://stackoverflow.com/a/22315659)
A default of 0 means that if you deploy two NixOS boxes with the default
configuration, the second will fail because the brokerId was already in
use. Using -1 instead tells it to pick one automatically at first start.

The matrix-synapse user has `createHome = true;` which runs before the
`preStart` script, so the home directory will always exist and the block
will never execute.
Also don't include default path to keys in the configuration file,
because synapse will choke if it tries to open them before they
exist (even with `--generate-keys`).
`startAt = ""` as in `startAt = optionalString false ...` results
in an invalid timer unit (due to "" being promoted to a singleton
list and not filtered out).

Move Subsonic state directory from `/var/subsonic` to
`/var/lib/subsonic`, since the general convention is for each
application to put its state directory there.
Also, automatically set the home directory of the `subsonic` user to the
value of `config.services.subsonic.home`, rather than setting it to a
value hardcoded in the module. This keeps the home directory of the
`subsonic` user and the state directory for the Subsonic application in
sync.
With the merge of the closure-size branch, most packages now have
multiple outputs. One of these packages is gnutls, so previously
everything that we needed was to reference "${gnutls}/bin/..." and now
we need to use "${gnutls.bin}/bin/...".
So it's not a very big issue to fix.

This adds a Taskserver module along with documentation and a small
helper tool which eases managing a custom CA along with Taskserver
organisations, users and groups.
Taskserver is the server component of Taskwarrior, a TODO list
application for the command line.
The work has been started by @matthiasbeyer back in mid 2015 and I have
continued to work on it recently, so this merge contains commits from
both of us.
Thanks particularly to @nbp and @matthiasbeyer for reviewing and
suggesting improvements.
I've tested this with the new test (nixos/tests/taskserver.nix) this
branch adds and it fails because of the changes introduced by the
closure-size branch, so we need to do additional work on base of this.

This is simply to add configuration lines to the generated configuration
file. The reason why I didn't went for an attribute set is that the
taskdrc file format doesn't map very well on Nix attributes, for example
the following can be set in taskdrc:
server = somestring
server.key = anotherstring
In order to use a Nix attribute set for that, it would be way too
complicated, for example if we want to represent the mentioned example
we'd have to do something like this:
{ server._top = somestring;
server.key = anotherstring;
}
Of course, this would work as well but nothing is more simple than just
appending raw strings.

At least this should allow for some customisation of how the

Whenever the nixos-taskserver tool was invoked manually for creating an
organisation/group/user we now add an empty file called .imperative to
the data directory.
During the preStart of the Taskserver service, we use process-json which
in turn now checks whether those .imperative files exist and if so, it
doesn't do anything with it.
This should now ensure that whenever there is a manually created user,
it doesn't get killed off by the declarative configuration in case it
shouldn't exist within that configuration.
In addition, we also add a small subtest to check whether this is
happening or not and fail if the imperatively created user got deleted
by process-json.

Now we finally can delete organisations, groups and users along with
certificate revocation. The new subtests now make sure that the client
certificate is also revoked (both when removing the whole organisation
and just a single user).
If we use the imperative way to add and delete users, we have to restart
the Taskserver in order for the CRL to be effective.
However, by using the declarative configuration we now get this for
free, because removing a user will also restart the service and thus its
client certificate will end up in the CRL.

Unfortunately we don't have a better way to check whether the reload has

to work, a full restart needs to be done.

If we want to revoke client certificates and want the server to actually

We now no longer have the stupid --service-helper option, which silences
messages about already existing organisations, users or groups.
Instead of that option, we now have a new subcommand called
"process-json", which accepts a JSON file directly from the specified
NixOS module options and creates/deletes the users accordingly.
Note that this still has a two issues left to solve in this area:
* Deletion is not supported yet.
* If a user is created imperatively, the next run of process-json will
delete it once deletion is supported.
So we need to implement deletion and a way to mark organisations, users
and groups as "imperatively managed".

Finally, this is where we declaratively set up our organisations and
users/groups, which looks like this in the system configuration:
services.taskserver.organisations.NixOS.users = [ "alice" "bob" ];
This automatically sets up "alice" and "bob" for the "NixOS"
organisation, generates the required client keys and signs it via the
CA.
However, we still need to use nixos-taskdctl export-user in order to
import these certificates on the client.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
It's a helper for NixOS systems to make it easier to handle CA
certificate signing, similar to what taskd provides but comes preseeded
with the values from the system configuration.
The tool is very limited at the moment and only allows to *add*
organisations, users and groups. Deletion and suspension however is much
simpler to implement, because we don't need to handle certificate
signing.
Another limitation is that we don't take into account whether
certificates and keys are already set in the system configuration and if
they're set it will fail spectacularly.
For passing the commands to the taskd command, we're using a small C
program which does setuid() and setgid() to the Taskserver user and
group, because runuser(1) needs PAM (quite pointless if you're already
root) and su(1) doesn't allow for setting the group and setgid()s to the
default group of the user, so it even doesn't work in conjunction with
sg(1).
In summary, we now have a shiny nixos-taskdctl command, which lets us do
things like:
nixos-taskdctl add-org NixOS
nixos-taskdctl add-user NixOS alice
nixos-taskdctl export-user NixOS alice
The last command writes a series of shell commands to stdout, which then
can be imported on the client by piping it into a shell as well as doing
it for example via SSH:
ssh root@server nixos-taskdctl export-user NixOS alice | sh
Of course, in terms of security we need to improve this even further so
that we generate the private key on the client and just send a CSR to
the server so that we don't need to push any secrets over the wire.

The server starts up without that option anyway, but it complains about

Now the service starts up if only the services.taskserver.enable option
is set to true.
We now also have three systemd services (started in this order):
* taskserver-init: For creating the necessary data directory and also
includes a refecence to the configuration file in
the Nix store.
* taskserver-ca: Only enabled if none of the server.key, server.cert,
server.crl and caCert options are set, so we can
allow for certificates that are issued by another
CA.
This service creates a new CA key+certificate and a
server key+certificate and signs the latter using
the CA key.
The permissions of these keys/certs are set quite
strictly to allow only the root user to sign
certificates.
* taskserver: The main Taskserver service which just starts taskd.
We now also log to stdout and thus to the journal.
Of course, there are still a few problems left to solve, for instance:
* The CA currently only signs the server certificates, so it's
only usable for clients if the server doesn't validate client certs
(which is kinda pointless).
* Using "taskd <command>" is currently still a bit awkward to use, so
we need to properly wrap it in environment.systemPackages to set the
dataDir by default.
* There are still a few configuration options left to include, for
example the "trust" option.
* We might want to introduce an extraConfig option.
* It might be useful to allow for declarative configuration of
organisations and users, especially when it comes to creating client
certificates.
* The right signal has to be sent for the taskserver service to reload
properly.
* Currently the CA and server certificates are created using
server.host as the common name and doesn't set additional certificate
information. This could be improved by adding options that explicitly
set that information.
As for the config file, we might need to patch taskd to allow for
setting not only --data but also a --cfgfile, which then omits the
${dataDir}/config file. We can still use the "include" directive from
the file specified using --cfgfile in order to chainload
${dataDir}/config.

The descriptions for the options previously seem to be from the

Also, I've reordered things a bit for consistency (type, default,
example and then description) and add missing types, examples and
docbook tags.
Options that are not used by default now have a null value, so that we
can generate a configuration file out of all the options defined for the
module.
The dataDir default value is now /var/lib/taskserver, because it doesn't
make sense to put just yet another empty subdirectory in it and "data"
doesn't quite make sense anyway, because it also contains the
configuration file as well.

We're aiming for a proper integration into systemd/journald, so we
really don't want zillions of separate log files flying around in our
system.
Same as with the pidFile. The latter is only needed for taskdctl, which
is a SysV-style initscript and all of its functionality plus a lot more
is handled by systemd already.

The service doesn't start with the "taskd" user being present, so we
really should add it. And while at it, it really makes sense to add a
default group as well.
I'm using a check for the user/group name as well, to allow the
taskserver to be run as an existing user.

- Enforce that an option declaration has a "defaultText" if and only if the
type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig"
and if a "default" attribute is defined.
- Enforce that the value of the "example" attribute is wrapped with "literalExample"
if the type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".
- Warn if a "defaultText" is defined in an option declaration if the type of
the option does not derive from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".
- Warn if no "type" is defined in an option declaration.
Updates gitlab to the current stable version and fixes a lot of features that
were broken, at least with the current version and our configuration.
Quite a lot of sweat and tears has gone into testing nearly all features and
reading/patching the Gitlab source as we're about to deploy gitlab for our
whole company.
Things to note:
* The gitlab config is now written as a nix attribute set and will be
converted to JSON. Gitlab uses YAML but JSON is a subset of YAML.
The `extraConfig` opition is also an attribute set that will be merged
with the default config. This way *all* Gitlab options are supported.
* Some paths like uploads and configs are hardcoded in rails (at least
after my study of the Gitlab source). This is why they are linked from
the Gitlab root to /run/gitlab and then linked to the configurable
`statePath`.
* Backup & restore should work out of the box from another Gitlab instance.
* gitlab-git-http-server has been replaced by gitlab-workhorse upstream.
Push & pull over HTTPS works perfectly. Communication to gitlab is done
over unix sockets. An HTTP server is required to proxy requests to
gitlab-workhorse over another unix socket at
`/run/gitlab/gitlab-workhorse.socket`.
* The user & group running gitlab are now configurable. These can even be
changed for live instances.
* The initial email address & password of the root user can be configured.
Fixes#8598.
We don't want to build all those things along with the manual, so that's
what the defaultText attribute is for.
Unfortunately a few of them were missing, so let's add them.

This reverts most of 89e983786a, as those references are sanitized now.
Fixes#10039, at least most of it.
The `sane` case wasn't fixed, as it calls a *function* in pkgs to get
the default value.
This is an improved version of original #12357.
For the purpose of generating docs, evaluate options with each derivation
in `pkgs` (recursively) replaced by a fake with path "\${pkgs.attribute.path}".
It isn't perfect, but it seems to cover a vast majority of use cases.
Caveat: even if the package is reached by a different means,
the path above will be shown and not e.g. `${config.services.foo.package}`.
As before, defaults created by `mkDefault` aren't displayed,
but documentation shouldn't (mostly) be a reason to use that anymore.
Note: t wouldn't be enough to just use `lib.mapAttrsRecursive`,
because derivations are also (special) attribute sets.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions
