New option `extraPluginPaths' that allows users to supply additional
paths for netdata plugins. Very useful for when you want to use
custom collection scripts.
1. Allow syslog identifiers with special characters
2. Do not write a pid file as we are running in foreground anyway
3. Clean up the module for readability
Without this, when deploying using nixops, restarting sshguard would make
nixops show an error about restarting the service although the service is
actually being restarted.
Don't add the testing "webcam" device,
which is unexpected to see when querying

Won't change behavior for anyone defining

Systemd provides some functionality to escape strings that are supposed
to be part of a unit name[1]. This seems to be used for interface names
in `sys-subsystem-net-devices-{interface}.device` and breaks
wpa_supplicant if the wireless interface name has a dash which is
encoded to \x2d.
Such an interface name is rather rare, but used i.e. when configuring
multiple wireless interfaces with `networking.wlanInterfaces`[2] to have on
interface for `wpa_supplicant` and another one for `hostapd`.

Add an ExecReload command to the prosody service, to allow reloading
prosody by sending SIGHUP to the main process, for example to update
certificates without restarting the server. This is exactly how the
`prosodyctl` tool does it.
Note: Currently there is a bug which prevents mod_http from reloading the
certificates properly: https://issues.prosody.im/1216.
`collectd' might fail because of a failure in any of numerous plugins.
For example `virt' plugin sometimes fails if `collectd' is started before `libvirtd'
The default galera_new_cluster script tries to set this environment
variable using systemctl set-environment which doesn't work if the
variable is not being used in the unit file ;)
Without this line, attempting to copy and paste non-ASCII characters
will result in error messages like the following (and pasting from the
server to the client will not work):
```

```
For large setups it is useful to list all databases explicit
(for example if temporary databases are also present) and store them in extra
files.
For smaller setups it is more convenient to just backup all databases at once,
because it is easy to forget to update configuration when adding/renaming
databases. pg_dumpall also has the advantage that it backups users/passwords.
As a result the module becomes easier to use because it is sufficient
in the default case to just set one option (services.postgresqlBackup.enable).
Although this can be added to `extraOptions` I figured that it makes
sense to add an option to explicitly promote this feature in our
documentation since most of the self-hosted gitea instances won't be
intended for common use I guess.
Also added a notice that this should be added after the initial deploy
as you have to register yourself using that feature unless the install
wizard is used.
Symlinking works for most plugins and themes, but Avada, for instance, fails to
understand the symlink, causing its file path stripping to fail. This results in
requests that look like:
https://example.com/wp-content//nix/store/...plugin/path/some-file.js
Since hard linking directories is not allowed, copying is the next best thing.
While at it (see previous commit), using attrNames in combination with
length is a bit verbose for checking whether the filtered attribute set

When generating values for the services.nsd.zones attribute using values
from pkgs, we'll run into an infinite recursion because the nsd module
has a condition on the top-level definition of nixpkgs.config.
While it would work to push the definition a few levels down, it will
still only work if we don't use bind tools for generating zones.
As far as I could see, Python support for BIND seems to be only needed
for the dnssec-* tools, so instead of using nixpkgs.config, we now
directly override pkgs.bind instead of globally in nixpkgs.
To illustrate the problem with a small test case, instantiating the
following Nix expression from the nixpkgs source root will cause the
mentioned infinite recursion:
(import ./nixos {
configuration = { lib, pkgs, ... }: {
services.nsd.enable = true;
services.nsd.zones = import (pkgs.writeText "foo.nix" ''
{ "foo.".data = "xyz";
"foo.".dnssec = true;
}
'');
};
}).vm
With this change, generating zones via import-from-derivation is now
possible again.

This adds a NixOS option for setting the CPU max and min frequencies
with `cpufreq`. The two options that have been added are:
- `powerManagement.cpufreq.max`
- `powerManagement.cpufreq.min`
It also adds an alias to the `powerManagement.cpuFreqGovernor` option as
`powerManagement.cpufreq.governor`. This updates the installer to use
the new option name. It also updates the manual with a note about
the new name.
Although the package itself builds fine, the module fails because it
tries to log into a non-existant file in `/var/log` which breaks the
service. Patching to default config to log to stdout by default fixes
the issue. Additionally this is the better solution as NixOS heavily
relies on systemd (and thus journald) for logging.
Also, the runtime relies on `/etc/localtime` to start, as it's not
required by the module system we set UTC as sensitive default when using
the module.
To ensure that the service's basic functionality is available, a simple
NixOS test has been added.
This flag causes the shairport-sync server to attempt to daemonize, but it looks like systemd is already handling that. With the `-d` argument, shairport-sync immediately exits—it seems that something (systemd I'm guessing?) is sending it SIGINT or SIGTERM.
The [upstream systemd unit](https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/blob/master/scripts/shairport-sync.service.in#L10) doesn't pass `-d`.
pkgs.owncloud still pointed to owncloud 7.0.15 (from May 13 2016)
Last owncloud server update in nixpkgs was in Jun 2016.
At the same time Nextcloud forked away from it, indicating users
switched over to that.

Systemd provides an option for allocating DynamicUsers
which we want to use in NixOS to harden service configuration.
However, we discovered that the user wasn't allocated properly
for services. After some digging this turned out to be, of course,
a cache inconsistency problem.
When a DynamicUser creation is performed, Systemd check beforehand
whether the requested user already exists statically. If it does,
it bails out. If it doesn't, systemd continues with allocating the
user.
However, by checking whether the user exists, nscd will store
the fact that the user does not exist in it's negative cache.
When the service tries to lookup what user is associated to its
uid (By calling whoami, for example), it will try to consult
libnss_systemd.so However this will read from the cache and tell
report that the user doesn't exist, and thus will return that
there is no user associated with the uid. It will continue
to do so for the cache duration time. If the service
doesn't immediately looks up its username, this bug is not
triggered, as the cache will be invalidated around this time.
However, if the service is quick enough, it might end up
in a situation where it's incorrectly reported that the
user doesn't exist.
Preferably, we would not be using nscd at all. But we need to
use it because glibc reads nss modules from /etc/nsswitch.conf
by looking relative to the global LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Because LD_LIBRARY_PATH
is not set globally (as that would lead to impurities and ABI issues),
glibc will fail to find any nss modules.
Instead, as a hack, we start up nscd with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set
for only that service. Glibc will forward all nss syscalls to
nscd, which will then respect the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and only
read from locations specified in the NixOS config.
we can load nss modules in a pure fashion.
However, I think by accident, we just copied over the default
settings of nscd, which actually caches user and group lookups.
We already disable this when sssd is enabled, as this interferes
with the correct working of libnss_sss.so as it already
does its own caching of LDAP requests.
(See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/deployment_guide/usingnscd-sssd)
Because nscd caching is now also interferring with libnss_systemd.so
and probably also with other nsss modules, lets just pre-emptively
disable caching for now for all options related to users and groups,
but keep it for caching hosts ans services lookups.
Note that we can not just put in /etc/nscd.conf:
enable-cache passwd no
As this will actually cause glibc to _not_ forward the call to nscd
at all, and thus never reach the nss modules. Instead we set
the negative and positive cache ttls to 0 seconds as a workaround.
This way, Glibc will always forward requests to nscd, but results
will never be cached.
Fixes#50273
Could also move kdc.conf, but this makes it inconvenient to use command line
utilities with heimdal, as it would require specifying --config-file with every
command.
Allow switching out kerberos server implementation.
Sharing config is probably sensible, but implementation is different enough to
be worth splitting into two files. Not sure this is the correct way to split an
implementation, but it works for now.
Uses the switch from config.krb5 to select implementation.
As cassandra start script hardcodes the location of logback
configuration to `CASSANDRA_CONF_DIR/logback.xml` there is no way to
pass an alternate file via `$JVM_OPTS` for example.
Also, without logback configuration DEBUG level is used which is not
necessary for standard usage.
With this commit a default logback configuration is set with log level
INFO.
Configuration borrowed from:
https://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/3.0/cassandra/configuration/configLoggingLevels.html
Instead of setting User/Group only when DynamicUser is disabled, the
previous version of the code set it only when it was enabled. This
caused services with DynamicUser enabled to actually run as nobody, and
services without DynamicUser enabled to run as root.
Regression from fbb7e0c82f.
This cleans up the CockroachDB expression, with a few suggestions from
@aszlig.
However, it brought up the note of using systemd's StateDirectory=
directive, which is a nice feature for managing long-term data files,
especially for UID/GID assigned services. However, it can only manage
directories under /var/lib (for global services), so it has to introduce
a special path to make use of it at all in the case someone wants a path
at a different root.
While the dataDir directive at the NixOS level is _occasionally_ useful,
I've gone ahead and removed it for now, as this expression is so new,
and it makes the expression cleaner, while other kinks can be worked out
and people can test drive it.
CockroachDB's dataDir directive, instead, has been replaced with
systemd's StateDirectory management to place the data under
/var/lib/cockroachdb for all uses.
There's an included RequiresMountsFor= clause like usual though, so if
people want dependencies for any kind of mounted device at boot
time/before database startup, it's easy to specify using their own
mount/filesystems clause.
This can also be reverted if necessary, but, we can see if anyone ever
actually wants that later on before doing it -- it's a backwards
compatible change, anyway.

Currently there are two calls to curl in the reloadScript, neither which
check for errors. If something is misconfigured (like wrong authToken),
the only trace that something wrong happened is this log message:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
<h1>Bad Message 400</h1><pre>reason: Illegal character VCHAR='<'</pre>
The service isn't marked as failed, so it's easy to miss.
Fix it by passing --fail to curl.
While at it:
* Add $curl_opts and $jenkins_url variables to keep the curl command
lines DRY.
* Add --show-error to curl to show short error message explanation when
things go wrong (like HTTP 401 error).
* Lower-case the $CRUMB variable as upper case is for exported environment
variables.
The new behaviour, when having wrong accessToken:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 401
And the service is clearly marked as failed in `systemctl --failed`.
This also includes a full end-to-end CockroachDB clustering test to
ensure everything basically works. However, this test is not currently
enabled by default, though it can be run manually. See the included
comments in the test for more information.
Closes#51306. Closes#38665.

Part of #49783. NextCloud tracks in its `config.php` the application's
state which makes it hard for the module to modify configurations during
upgrades.
It will take time until the issue is properly fixed, therefore we
decided to warn about this in the manual.
This PR addresses two things:
* Adding a basic example for nextcloud. I figured it to be helpful to
add some basic usage instructions when adding a new manual entry.
Advanced documentation may follow later.
For now this document actively links to the service options, so users
are guided to the remaining options that can be helpful in certain
cases.
* Add a warning about upgrades and manual changes in
`/var/lib/nextcloud`. This will be fixed in the future, but it's
definetely helpful to document the current issues in the manual (as
proposed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/49783#issuecomment-439691127).
This allows, finally, proper detection when postgresql is ready to
accept connections. Until now, it was possible that services depending
on postgresql would fail in a race condition trying to connect
to postgresql.
When reworking the rspamd workers I disallowed `proxy` as a type and
instead used `rspamd_proxy` which is the correct name for that worker
type. That change breaks peoples existing config and so I have made this
commit which allows `proxy` as a worker type again but makes it behave
as `rspamd_proxy` and prints a warning if you use it.
This commit adds an assertion that checks that either `configFile` or
`configuration` is configured for alertmanager. The alertmanager config
can not be an empty attributeset. The check executed with `amtool` fails
before the service even has the chance to start. We should probably not
allow a broken alertmanager configuration anyway.
This also introduces a test for alertmanager configuration that piggy
backs on the existing prometheus tests.
