This reverts commits 9d0de0dc57,
27d2857a99. 'nix ping-store' is an
experimental command so it doesn't work in Nix 2.4 unless you set
'experimental-features = nix-command' in nix.conf.
This seems to have worked in 15f105d41f (5
months ago) but broke somewhere in the meantime.
The current module doesn't seem to be underdocumented and might need a
serious refactor. It requires quite some hacks to get it to work (see
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/86305#issuecomment-621129942),
or how the ldap.nix test used systemd.services.openldap.preStart and
made quite some assumptions on internals.
Mic92 agreed on being added as a maintainer for the module, as he uses
it a lot and can possibly fix eventual breakages. For the most basic
startup breakages, the remaining openldap.nix test might suffice.
- Use floating points instead of strings, which Nix now supports
- Make the type of picom.settings option recursive
- Add a meaningful description of both the option and its type
Add extraConfig option for the muc submodule.
Also move the global extraConfig before all components and
virtualhosts, because the manual states:
The configuration is divided into two parts. The first part is known as
the "global" section. All settings here apply to the whole server, and
are the default for all virtual hosts.
The second half of the file is a series of VirtualHost and Component
definitions. Settings under each VirtualHost or Component line apply
only to that host.
Before, if at least one muc was defined, or uploadHttp enabled, the
global extraConfig would end up after "muc" or "http_upload" component
making it apply to that component only and not globally.
We add a Prosody entry to the NixOS manual showing how to setup a
basic XEP-0423 compliant Prosody service. This example also showcase
how to generate the associated ACME certificates.
Note: The <programlisting> body might look poorly indented, but trust
me, it's necessary. If we try to increase their indentation level, the
HTML output will end up containing a lot of unecesseray heading spaces
breaking the formatting...
The output file is found and handled by thelounge itself [1], leaving
the user free to override THELOUNGE_HOME in the environment if they
choose, but having a sensible default to make `thelounge` generally
usable in most cases.
This solution follows discussion on #70318.
[1] 9ef5c6c67e/src/command-line/utils.js (L56)
We are leveraging the systemd sandboxing features to prevent the
service accessing locations it shouldn't do. Most notably, we are here
preventing the prosody service from accessing /home and providing it
with a private /dev and /tmp.
Please consult man systemd.exec for further informations.
Setting up a XMPP chat server is a pretty deep rabbit whole to jump in
when you're not familiar with this whole universe. Your experience
with this environment will greatly depends on whether or not your
server implements the right set of XEPs.
To tackle this problem, the XMPP community came with the idea of
creating a meta-XEP in charge of listing the desirable XEPs to comply
with. This meta-XMP is issued every year under an new XEP number. The
2020 one being XEP-0423[1].
This prosody nixos module refactoring makes complying with XEP-0423
easier. All the necessary extensions are enabled by default. For some
extensions (MUC and HTTP_UPLOAD), we need some input from the user and
cannot provide a sensible default nixpkgs-wide. For those, we guide
the user using a couple of assertions explaining the remaining manual
steps to perform.
We took advantage of this substential refactoring to refresh the
associated nixos test.
Changelog:
- Update the prosody package to provide the necessary community
modules in order to comply with XEP-0423. This is a tradeoff, as
depending on their configuration, the user might end up not using them
and wasting some disk space. That being said, adding those will
allow the XEP-0423 users, which I expect to be the majority of
users, to leverage a bit more the binary cache.
- Add a muc submodule populated with the prosody muc defaults.
- Add a http_upload submodule in charge of setting up a basic http
server handling the user uploads. This submodule is in is
spinning up an HTTP(s) server in charge of receiving and serving the
user's attachments.
- Advertise both the MUCs and the http_upload endpoints using mod disco.
- Use the slixmpp library in place of the now defunct sleekxmpp for
the prosody NixOS test.
- Update the nixos test to setup and test the MUC and http upload
features.
- Add a couple of assertions triggered if the setup is not xep-0423
compliant.

Rework withExtensions / buildEnv to handle currently enabled
extensions better and make them compatible with override. They now
accept a function with the named arguments enabled and all, where
enabled is a list of currently enabled extensions and all is the set
of all extensions. This gives us several nice properties:
- You always get the right version of the list of currently enabled
extensions
- Invocations chain
- It works well with overridden PHP packages - you always get the
correct versions of extensions
As a contrived example of what's possible, you can add ImageMagick,
then override the version and disable fpm, then disable cgi, and
lastly remove the zip extension like this:
{ pkgs ? (import <nixpkgs>) {} }:
with pkgs;
let
phpWithImagick = php74.withExtensions ({ all, enabled }: enabled ++ [ all.imagick ]);
phpWithImagickWithoutFpm743 = phpWithImagick.override {
version = "7.4.3";
sha256 = "wVF7pJV4+y3MZMc6Ptx21PxQfEp6xjmYFYTMfTtMbRQ=";
fpmSupport = false;
};
phpWithImagickWithoutFpmZip743 = phpWithImagickWithoutFpm743.withExtensions (
{ enabled, all }:
lib.filter (e: e != all.zip) enabled);
phpWithImagickWithoutFpmZipCgi743 = phpWithImagickWithoutFpmZip743.override {
cgiSupport = false;
};

Fixes#858001d61efb7f1 accidentially changed the
restartTriggers of `datadog-agent.service` to point to the attribute
name (in this case, a location relative to `/etc`), instead of the
location of the config files in the nix store.
This caused datadog to not get restarted on activation of new
config, if the file name hasn't changed.
Fix this, by pointing this back to the location in the nix store.
Use types.str instead of types.path to exclude private information from
the derivation.
Add a warinig about the contents of acl beeing included in the nix
store.
Enables multi-site configurations.
This break compatibility with prior configurations that expect options
for a single dokuwiki instance in `services.dokuwiki`.
* nixos/k3s: simplify config expression
* nixos/k3s: add config assertions and trim unneeded bits
* nixos/k3s: add a test that k3s works; minor module improvements
This is a single-node test. Eventually we should also have a multi-node
test to verify the agent bit works, but that one's more involved.
* nixos/k3s: add option description
* nixos/k3s: add defaults for token/serveraddr
Now that the assertion enforces their presence, we dont' need to use the typesystem for it.
* nixos/k3s: remove unneeded sudo in test
* nixos/k3s: add to test list
After the recent rewrite, enabled extensions are passed to php programs
through an extra ini file by a wrapper. Since httpd uses shared module
instead of program, the wrapper did not affect it and no extensions
other than built-ins were loaded.
To fix this, we are passing the extension config another way – by adding it
to the service's generated config.
For now we are hardcoding the path to the ini file. It would be nice to add
the path to the passthru and use that once the PHP expression settles down.
This commit:
1. Updates the path of the traefik package, so that the out output is
used.
2. Adapts the configuration settings and options to Traefik v2.
3. Formats the NixOS traefik service using nixfmt.
We already set the relevant env vars in the systemd services. That does
not help one when executing any of the executables outside a service,
e.g. when creating a new user.
The new wording does not assume the user is upgrading.
This is because a user could be setting up a new installation on 20.03
on a server that has a 19.09 or before stateVersion!!
The new wording ensures that confusion is reduced by stating that they
do not have to care about the assumed 16→17 transition.
Then, the wording explains that they should, and how to upgrade to
version 18.
It also reviews the confusing wording about "multiple" upgrades.
* * *
The only thing we cannot really do is stop a fresh install of 17 if
there was no previous install, as it cannot be detected. That makes a
useless upgrade forced for new users with old state versions.
It is also important to state that they must set their package to
Nextcloud 18, as future upgrades to Nextcloud will not allow an uprade
from 17!
I assume future warning messages will exist specifically stating what to
do to go from 18 to 19, then 19 to 20, etc...
I've had Netdata crash on me sometimes. Rarely but more than once. And I lost days of data before I noticed.
Let's be nice and restart it on failures by default.
Also removed `pkgs.hydra-flakes` since flake-support has been merged
into master[1]. Because of that, `pkgs.hydra-unstable` is now compiled
against `pkgs.nixFlakes` and currently requires a patch since Hydra's
master doesn't compile[2] atm.

Instead of making the configuration less portable by hard coding the number of
jobs equal to the cores we can also let nix set the same number at runtime.
This prevents duplication in cross-compiled nixos machines. The
bootstrapped glibc differs from the natively compiled one, so we get
two glibc’s in the closure. To reduce closure size, just use
stdenv.cc.libc where available.
We have this bug https://github.com/elementary/gala/issues/636
when using notifications in gala. It's likely to not really be fixed
because all development is on the new notifications server.
Them removing cerbere and registering with the SessionManager
should make shutdown very fast. This was even done in plank [0]
which was the last factor outside cerbere causing this.

So now we have only packages for human interaction in php.packages and
only extensions in php.extensions. With this php.packages.exts have
been merged into the same attribute set as all the other extensions to
make it flat and nice.
The nextcloud module have been updated to reflect this change as well
as the documentation.
In 7f838b4dde, we dropped systemd-udev-settle.service from display-manager.service's wants.
Unfortunately, we are doing something wrong since without it both Xorg and Wayland fail to start:
Failed to open gpu '/dev/dri/card0': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Operation not permitted
Until we sort this out, let's add systemd-udev-settle.service to GDM to unblock the channels.
This allows you to specify the system-wide flake registry. One use is
to pin 'nixpkgs' to the Nixpkgs version used to build the system:
nix.registry.nixpkgs.flake = nixpkgs;
where 'nixpkgs' is a flake input. This ensures that commands like
$ nix run nixpkgs#hello
pull in a minimum of additional store paths.
You can also use this to redirect flakes, e.g.
nix.registry.nixpkgs.to = {
type = "github";
owner = "my-org";
repo = "my-nixpkgs";
};
Many options define their example to be a Nix value without using
literalExample. This sometimes gets rendered incorrectly in the manual,
causing confusion like in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25516
This fixes it by using literalExample for such options. The list of
option to fix was determined with this expression:
let
nixos = import ./nixos { configuration = {}; };
lib = import ./lib;
valid = d: {
# escapeNixIdentifier from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82461
set = lib.all (n: lib.strings.escapeNixIdentifier n == n) (lib.attrNames d) && lib.all (v: valid v) (lib.attrValues d);
list = lib.all (v: valid v) d;
}.${builtins.typeOf d} or true;
optionList = lib.optionAttrSetToDocList nixos.options;
in map (opt: {
file = lib.elemAt opt.declarations 0;
loc = lib.options.showOption opt.loc;
}) (lib.filter (opt: if opt ? example then ! valid opt.example else false) optionList)
which when evaluated will output all options that use a Nix identifier
that would need escaping as an attribute name.
This windowManager and desktopManager doesn't even have
an option to use it. git history suggests to me that there's no way anyone
finds this useful anymore.

Upgrades Hydra to the latest master/flake branch. To perform this
upgrade, it's needed to do a non-trivial db-migration which provides a
massive performance-improvement[1].
The basic ideas behind multi-step upgrades of services between NixOS versions
have been gathered already[2]. For further context it's recommended to
read this first.
Basically, the following steps are needed:
* Upgrade to a non-breaking version of Hydra with the db-changes
(columns are still nullable here). If `system.stateVersion` is set to
something older than 20.03, the package will be selected
automatically, otherwise `pkgs.hydra-migration` needs to be used.
* Run `hydra-backfill-ids` on the server.
* Deploy either `pkgs.hydra-unstable` (for Hydra master) or
`pkgs.hydra-flakes` (for flakes-support) to activate the optimization.
The steps are also documented in the release-notes and in the module
using `warnings`.
`pkgs.hydra` has been removed as latest Hydra doesn't compile with
`pkgs.nixStable` and to ensure a graceful migration using the newly
introduced packages.
To verify the approach, a simple vm-test has been added which verifies
the migration steps.

After upgrading to NixOS 20.03, I've got the following warning:
nginx: [warn] could not build optimal types_hash, you should increase either types_hash_max_size: 2048 or types_hash_bucket_size: 64; ignoring types_hash_bucket_size
The documentation states that "if nginx emits the message requesting
to increase either hash max size or hash bucket size then the first
parameter should first be increased" (aka types_hash_max_size).
In 19.03, the size of mime.types was around 100 entries. In 20.03, we
are around 900 entries. This is due to ff0148d868 which makes nginx
use mailcap mime.types.
In ff0148d868, nginx configuration was modified to use mime.types
from mailcap package as it is more complete. However, there are two
places where mime.types is included in configuration. When the user
was setting `cfg.httpConfig`, the mime.types from nginx was still
used. This commit fix that by moving the common snippet in a variable
of its own and ensure it is used at both places.
It's impossible to move two major-versions forward when upgrading
Nextcloud. This is an issue when comming from 19.09 (using Nextcloud 16)
and trying to upgrade to 20.03 (using Nextcloud 18 by default).
This patch implements the measurements discussed in #82056 and #82353 to
improve the update process and to circumvent similar issues in the
future:
* `pkgs.nextcloud` has been removed in favor of versioned attributes
(currently `pkgs.nextcloud17` and `pkgs.nextcloud18`). With that
approach we can safely backport major-releases in the future to
simplify those upgrade-paths and we can select one of the
major-releases as default depending on the configuration (helpful to
decide whether e.g. `pkgs.nextcloud17` or `pkgs.nextcloud18` should be
used on 20.03 and `master` atm).
* If `system.stateVersion` is older than `20.03`, `nextcloud17` will be
used (which is one major-release behind v16 from 19.09). When using a
package older than the latest major-release available (currently v18),
the evaluation will cause a warning which describes the issue and
suggests next steps.
To make those package-selections easier, a new option to define the
package to be used for the service (namely
`services.nextcloud.package`) was introduced.
* If `pkgs.nextcloud` exists (e.g. due to an overlay which was used to
provide more recent Nextcloud versions on older NixOS-releases), an
evaluation error will be thrown by default: this is to make sure that
`services.nextcloud.package` doesn't use an older version by accident
after checking the state-version. If `pkgs.nextcloud` is added
manually, it needs to be declared explicitly in
`services.nextcloud.package`.
* The `nixos/nextcloud`-documentation contains a
"Maintainer information"-chapter which describes how to roll out new
Nextcloud releases and how to deal with old (and probably unsafe)
versions.
Closes#82056
Running the manual on a TTY is useless in the graphical ISOs and not
particularly useful in non-graphical ISOs (since you can also run
'nixos-help').
Fixes#83157.
* Removed the use of gnome-screensaver (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-flashback/issues/18)
* Flashback's menu-related environment variables are now set in the gnome3.nix module instead of gnome-panel to resolve dependency conflict.
Previously, systemd.network.links was only respected with networkd
enabled, but it's really udev taking care of links, no matter if
networkd is enabled or not.
With our module fixed, there's no need to manually manage the text file
anymore.
This was originally applied in 3d1079a20d,
but was reverted due to 1115959a8d causing
evaluation errors on hydra.
Broken by 0f973e273c284a97a8dffeab7d9c0b09a88b7139 in #73533
The type of the checkReversePath option allows "strict" and "loose" as
well as boolean values.
If the host network stack is slow to start, the alertmanager fails to
start with this error message:
caller=main.go:256 msg="unable to initialize gossip mesh" err="create memberlist: Failed to get final advertise address: No private IP address found, and explicit IP not provided"
This bug can be reproduced by shutting down the network stack and
restarting the alertmanager.
Note I don't know why I didn't hit this issue with previous
alertmanager releases.
* Linkify all service options used in the code-examples.
* Demonstrated the use of `riot-web.override {}`.
* Moved the example how to configure a postgresql-database for
`matrix-synapse` to this document from the 20.03 release-notes.
Fixes some dependency ordering problems at boot time with services that
require DNS. Without Type=notify these services might be started before
stubby was ready to accept DNS requests.
The v7 series is very different.
This commit introduces the 3 packages: fahclient, fahcontrol and
fahviewer. It also rebuilds the NixOS module to map better with the new
client.
Previously the assertion passed if the kernel had support OR the
filter was *enabled*. In the case of a kernel without support, the
`checkReversePath` option defaulted to false, and then failed the
assertion.
...even when networkd is disabled
This reverts commit ce78f3ac70, reversing
changes made to dc34da0755.
I'm sorry; Hydra has been unable to evaluate, always returning
> error: unexpected EOF reading a line
and I've been unable to reproduce the problem locally. Bisecting
pointed to this merge, but I still can't see what exactly was wrong.
