Release notes: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/releases/tag/1.7
Notable (backward incompatible) changes:
- The default terminal changed from Alacritty to foot
Known issues:
- `swaynag` will crash when Sway 1.6.1 is still running while the Nix
package (and thus `swaynag`) is already updated to version 1.7.
- The experimental Ozone/Wayland support of Electron apps will be broken
for a while. Electron version 17 should work but the Chromium fixes
haven't yet been backported to Electron version 16.
NixOS module: programs.sway.extraPackages: The "alacritty" package was
replaced with "foot".
VM test: We switched from the OpenGL ES 2.0 renderer to Pixman. The
terminal was also changed to foot but Alacritty is still used for the
XWayland test (since foot doesn't support X11).

`register_new_matrix_user` is a script provided by the matrix-synapse
package to create a new matrix user on the command line.
This commit provides a wrapper around `register_new_matrix_user` that
automatically passes the url (and `registration_shared_secret`, if
present) as CLI arguments.
Some tests from the `nixos/tests` folder were missing in the `all-tests.nix`
file. This meant they couldn't be run from the `nixosTests` attribute
set and therefore not be linked to their packages.
- regenerate everything
- hardcode to build with node 14 (upstream doesn't support 16 yet)
- remove optional deps to make things build without python2
- set HOME in service environment to prevent crashing
Changes in node-*.nix are autogenerated.
Commit ca58bd0a50 broke the test networking.networkd.static. This happened because the test sets `networking.defaultGateway`. This is implemented by adding the gateway to the list of `routes` using `mkDefault`. The `routes` are then overridden by an empty list in the newly added code. Replace `mkDefault` with `id` so the two lists are merged and everything (hopefully) works as expected.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/144590 for a more context.
LXC containers like those used by VPSAdminOS might want to install a bootloader
so passing `true` to `system.build.installBootLoader` without any priority specified,
causes a conflict for such systems with the recent `system.build` changes:

Fixes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/155839
If the Nix daemon has never been enabled (nix.enable has always been
set to false), the gcroots directory won't exist. If the Nix daemon
is later enabled, the GC roots for booted-system and current-system
will be missing, and they might end up being garbage collected. Since
it's cheap to add GC roots even if the daemon will never be enabled,
let's just always add them so we're okay in the case where the daemon
is enabled later.
As written, the nixos/quorum module will simply run forever, and has
been timing out in Hydra. Implement a fix for such by changing the final
statement from a wait_until_succeeds to simply succeed, forcing the test
to succeed or fail instead of run indefinitely.
- Fully get rid of `parseKeyValues` and use systemctl features for that
- Add some regex modifiers recommended by perlcritic
- Get rid of a postfix if
- Sort units when showing their status
- Clean the logic for showing what failed from `elif` to `next`
- Switch from `state` to `substate` for `auto-restart` because that's
actually where the value is stored
- Show status of units with one single systemctl call and get rid of
COLUMNS in favor of --full
- Add a test for failing units
Replace sleep() calls where possible, using wait_for_* methods. This
should provide more robustness in cases where tests are running on a
congested system.
This replaces the naive K=V unit parser with a proper INI parser from a
library and adds proper support for override files. Also adds a bunch of
comments about parsing, I hope this makes it easier to understand and
maintain in the future.
There are multiple reasons to do so, the first one is just general
correctness with is nice imo. But to get to more serious reasons (I
didn't put in all that effort for nothing) is that this is the first
step torwards more clever restart/reload handling. By using a library
like Data::Compare a future PR could replace the current way of
fingerprinting units (which is to compare store paths) by comparing the
hashes. This is more precise because units won't get restarted because
the order of the options change, comments are added, some dependency of
writeText changes, .... Also this allows us to add a feature like
`X-Reload-Triggers` so the unit can either be reloaded when these change
or restarted when everything else changes, giving module authors the
ability to have their services reloaded without having to fear that
updates are not applied because the service doesn't get restarted.
Another reason why this feature is nice is that now that the unit files
are parsed correctly (and values are just extracted from one section),
potential future rewrites can just rely on some INI library without
having to implement their own weird parser that is compatible with this
script.
This also comes with a new subroutine to handle systemd booleans because
I thought the current way of handling it was just ugly. This also allows
overriding values this script reads in an override file.
Apart from making this script more compatible with the world around it,
this also fixes two issues I saw bugging exactly 0 (zero) people. First
is that this script now supports multiple override files, also ones that
are not called override.conf and the second one is that `1` and `on` are
treated as bools by systemd but were previously not parsed as such by
switch-to-configuration.
Add test coverage for the enableConfiguredRecompile option, checking
that we can compile and exec a new xmonad from a user's local config, as
well as restart the originally configured xmonad.
As I needed a reliable way to wait for recompilation to finish before
proceeding with subsequent test steps, I adjusted the startup behavior
to write a file ("oldXMonad" or "newXMonad") to /etc upon startup, and
replaced some "sleep" calls with "wait_for_file".
Update the example config to show a working example for xmonad 0.17.0, which
added an argument to the `launch` function and adjusted the location of the
recompiled binary.
Webclient only allows serving a web directory under /_matrix/client
This only incentivizes running the client under the same domain as the homeserver.
Which is not recommended due to CORS.
`assert` has the annoying property that it dumps a lot of code at the
user without the built in capability to display a nicer message. We have
worked around this using `assertMsg` which would *additionally* display
a nice message. We can do even better: By using `throw` we can make
evaluation fail before assert draws its conclusions and prevent it from
displaying the code making up the assert condition, so we get the nicer
message of `throw` and the syntactical convenience of `assert`.
Before:
nix-repl> python.override { reproducibleBuild = true; stripBytecode = false; }
trace: Deterministic builds require stripping bytecode.
error: assertion (((lib).assertMsg (reproducibleBuild -> stripBytecode)) "Deterministic builds require stripping bytecode.") failed at /home/lukas/src/nix/nixpkgs/pkgs/development/interpreters/python/cpython/2.7/default.nix:45:1
After:
nix-repl> python.override { reproducibleBuild = true; stripBytecode = false; }
error: Deterministic builds require stripping bytecode.
Add a new type, inheriting 'types.str' but checking whether the value
doesn't contain any newline characters.
The motivation comes from a problem with the
'users.users.${u}.openssh.authorizedKeys' option.
It is easy to unintentionally insert a newline character at the end of a
string, or even in the middle, for example:
restricted_ssh_keys = command: keys:
let
prefix = ''
command="${command}",no-pty,no-agent-forwarding,no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding
'';
in map (key: "${prefix} ${key}") keys;
The 'prefix' string ends with a newline, which ends up in the middle of
a key entry after a few manipulations.
This is problematic because the key file is built by concatenating all
the keys with 'concatStringsSep "\n"', with result in two entries for
the faulty key:
''
command="...",options...
MY_KEY
''
This is hard to debug and might be dangerous. This is now caught at
build time.
This commit introduces a new option
`services.nextcloud.nginx.recommendedHttpHeaders` that can be used to
optionally disable serving recommended HTTP Response Headers in nginx.
This is especially useful if some headers are already configured
elsewhere to be served in nginx and thus result in duplicate headers.
Resolves#120223
The `extraConfig` parameter only handles text - it doesn't support
arbitrary secrets and, with the way it's processed in the setup
script, it's very easy to accidentally unescape the echoed string and
run shell commands / feed garbage to bash.
To fix this, implement a new option, `config`, which instead takes a
typed attribute set, generates the `.env` file in nix and does
arbitrary secret replacement. This option is then used to provide the
configuration for all other options which change the `.env` file.
When upgrading bookstack, if something in the cache conflicts with the
new installation, the artisan commands might fail. To solve this, make
the cache lifetime bound to the setup service. This also removes the
`cacheDir` option, since the path is now handled automatically by
systemd.
Commit 9a5b5d9fe8 added Haskell
dependencies (GHC and packages) to the xmonad binary's environment even
if xmonad had been preconfigured (via the "config" option). The intent
was to enable one-off recompiling using a local config file (e.g.
~/.config/xmonad/xmonad.hs), so the user can get quick feedback while
developing their config.
While this works, it may not be a common use-case, and it requires some
careful crafting in xmonad.hs itself. On top of that, it significantly
increases the size of the closure.
Given all that, commit b69d9d3c23 removed
GHC and packages from the binary's environment.
But there are still those among us who want to be able to recompile from
a preconfigured xmonad, so let's provide a way to opt-into configured
recompilation.
network.target is reached earlier, but with much fewer services
available. DNS is likely to be not functional before
network-online.target, so waiting for that seems better for that reason
alone. the existing backends for network-online.target all seem to do
reasonable things (wait until all links are in *some* stable state), so
we shouldn't lose anything from waiting.
This removes `/run/nixos/activation-reload-list` (which we will need in
the future when reworking the reload logic) and makes
`/run/nixos/activation-restart-list` honor `restartIfChanged` and
`reloadIfChanged`. This way activation scripts don't have to bother with
choosing between reloading and restarting.
Instead of referencing all library functions through `lib.` and
builtins through `builtins.` at every invocation, inherit them into
the appropriate scope.
The tsm-client needs a tsm-server to do anything useful.
Without a server, automated tests can just
check diagnostic outputs for plausibility.
The commit at hand adds two tests:
1.
The command line interface `dsmc` is called,
then it is verified that the program does
* report the correct client version,
* find its configuration file,
* report a connection error.
2.
To check the GUI (and the tsm-client nixos module), we add a
vm test which uses the module to install `tsm-client-withGui`.
To verify that the GUI's basic functionality is present,
we skip over all connection failure related error
messages and open the "Connection Information"
dialog from the main application window.
This dialog presents the node name and the client version;
both are verified by the test.
Note: Our `tsm-client` build recipe consists of two packages:
The "unwrapped" package and the final package.
This commit puts the unwrapped one into the final
package's `passthru` so that tests can access
the original version string that is needed to check
the client version reported by the application.
The module option type `nonEmptyStr` was introduced in commit
a3c5f0cba8
The tsm modules previously simply used
`strMatching ".+"` to prevent empty option strings,
but the new type is more thorough as
it also catches space-only strings.
This enables some systemd sandboxing
options for the `tsm-backup.service`.
Those settings have been determined by expermentation.
This commit tries hard to protect the filesystem from
write access, but not to hide anything from read access,
so users can backup all files they choose to backup.
An exception are API filesystems (`/dev`, `/proc`, `/sys`):
As their "files" are not stored on persistent storage,
they are sandboxed away as much as possible.
Note that the service still has to run with root
privileges to reach files with limited access permissions.
The obvious alternative to use a dedicated user account and
the `CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH` capability to permit system-wide
read access while blocking write access does not work.
Experiments have shown that `dsmc` verifies access permissions
for each file before attempting to open it for reading.
Hence `dsmc` refuses to copy files where the file permission
mode blocks read access -- even if process capabilities
would allow it to proceed irrespective of permissions.
