This makes it possible to only start IPFS when needed. So a user’s
IPFS daemon only starts when they actually use it.
A few important warnings though:
- This probably shouldn’t be mixed with services.ipfs.autoMount
since you want /ipfs and /ipns aren’t activated like this
- ipfs.socket assumes that you are using ports 5001 and 8080 for the
API and gateway respectively. We could do some parsing to figure
out what is in apiAddress and gatewayAddress, but that’s kind of
difficult given the nonstandard address format.
- Apparently? this doesn’t work with the --api commands used in the tests.
Of course you can always start automatically with startWhenNeeded =
false, or just running ‘systemctl start ipfs.service’.
Tested with the following test (modified from tests/ipfs.nix):
import ./make-test-python.nix ({ pkgs, ...} : {
name = "ipfs";
nodes.machine = { ... }: {
services.ipfs = {
enable = true;
startWhenNeeded = true;
};
};
testScript = ''
start_all()
machine.wait_until_succeeds("ipfs id")
ipfs_hash = machine.succeed("echo fnord | ipfs add | awk '{ print $2 }'")
machine.succeed(f"ipfs cat /ipfs/{ipfs_hash.strip()} | grep fnord")
'';
})
Fixes#90145
Update nixos/modules/services/network-filesystems/ipfs.nix
Co-authored-by: Florian Klink <flokli@flokli.de>
Previously we had three services for different config flavors. This is
confusing because only one instance of IPFS can run on a host / port
combination at once. So move all into ipfs.service, which contains the
configuration specified in services.ipfs.
Also remove the env wrapper and just use systemd env configuration.
Many options define their example to be a Nix value without using
literalExample. This sometimes gets rendered incorrectly in the manual,
causing confusion like in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/25516
This fixes it by using literalExample for such options. The list of
option to fix was determined with this expression:
let
nixos = import ./nixos { configuration = {}; };
lib = import ./lib;
valid = d: {
# escapeNixIdentifier from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82461
set = lib.all (n: lib.strings.escapeNixIdentifier n == n) (lib.attrNames d) && lib.all (v: valid v) (lib.attrValues d);
list = lib.all (v: valid v) d;
}.${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.
A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
Samba 3 has been discontinued since Q1/2015. So I think it's time
to just wipe it from the pkgs. FuseSMB is pretty much abandoned,
upstream does not exist and it's also not as useful as it used to
be anyways.
This prevents services to be started before they're initialized, and
renders the `systemd.targets.ceph.wantedBy = lib.mkForce [];` hack in
the vm tests obsolete - The config now starts up ceph after a reboot,
too.
Let's take advantage of that, crash all VMs, and boot them up again.
Don't pass user and group to ceph, and rely on it to drop ceps, but let
systemd handle running it as the appropriate user.
This also inlines the extraServiceConfig into the makeService function,
as we have conditionals depending on daemonType there anyways.
Use StateDirectory to create directories in
/var/lib/ceph/${daemonType}/${clusterName}-${daemonId}.
There previously was a condition on daemonType being one of mds,mon,rgw
or mgr. We only instantiate makeServices with these types, and "osd" was
special.
In the osd case, test examples suggest it'd be in something like
/var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-${cfg.osd0.name} - so it's not special at all,
but exactly like the pattern for the others.
During initialization, we also need these folders, before the unit is
started up. Move the mkdir -p commands in the vm tests to the line
immediately before they're required.
* remove kinetic
* release note
* add johanot as maintainer
nixos/ceph: create option for mgr_module_path
- since the upstream default is no longer correct in v14
* fix module, default location for libexec has changed
* ceph: fix test
* maintain only one version
* ceph-client: init
* include ceph-volume python tool in output
nixos/ceph: extraConfig, fix test, wait for ceph-mgr to become active
* run ceph with disk group permission
* add extraConfig option for the global section
needed per cluster
* clear up how ceph.conf is generated
* fix ceph testcase
Since https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/61321, local-fs.target is
part of sysinit.target again, meaning units without
DefaultDependencies=no will automatically depend on it, and the manual
set dependencies can be dropped.
Gluster's pidfile handling is bug-ridden.
I have fixed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1509340
in an attempt to improve it but that is far from enough.
The gluster developers describe another pidfile issue as
"our brick-process management is a total nightmare", see
f1071f17e0/xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/glusterd-utils.c (L5907-L5924)
I have observed multiple cases where glusterd doesn't start correctly
and systemd doesn't notice because of the erroneous pidfile handling.
To improve the situation, we don't let glusterd daemonize itself any more
and instead use `--no-daemon` and the `Simple` service type.
This reverts commit 095fe5b43d.
Pointless renames considered harmful. All they do is force people to
spend extra work updating their configs for no benefit, and hindering
the ability to switch between unstable and stable versions of NixOS.
Like, what was the value of having the "nixos." there? I mean, by
definition anything in a NixOS module has something to do with NixOS...
- Introduce new "server" output holding the server binaries
- Adapt tsmbac.patch to new build environment
- Adapt openafs nixos server module accordingly
- Update upstream CellServDB: 2017-03-14 -> 2018-05-14
- Introduce package attributes to refer to the openafs packages to use for
server, programs and kernel module
It is no longer required to change the config your ipfs repo manually if you change
localDiscovery option in nixos configuration after ipfs repository initialization.
All 5 daemon types can be enabled and configured through the module and the module both creates the ceph.conf required but also creates and enables specific services for each daemon, based on the systemd service files that upstream provides.
* Add options:
- enable
- davUser (default: "davfs2")
- davGroup (default: "davfs2)
* Add davfs2 user or group if they are not specified in the
configuration
This introduces dependency cycles.
A network file system to be running is not required for a network
connection to be available.

The PAM service name used before this commit was "sambda", with an
extra 'd'. For some reason I don't quite fully understand this typo
prevents GDM from starting. This change fixes that as tested in VMs
built using "nixos-rebuild -I nixpkgs=<mypkgs> build-vm".
- Remove useless escape of question mark
- Fix and quoting
- Add some '&&s' for correctness
- Add escapeShellArg
- Remove &&s in preStart
Edited by grahamc: fixed the ${} typo on line 246
IPFS uses the environment variable IPFS_PATH to determine where to look for it's data, which wasn't set previously therefore ignoring the dataDir attribute
Offline mode: When adding a lot of data, start this service.
It will will not flood the DHT since it only exposes the API.
When you are done simply reverse the process.
