Before this patch, services.dendrite.environmentFile is used for
secrets and environment variable substitution only happens when this
option is used.
systemd-247 provides a mechanism called LoadCredential for secrets and
it is better than environment file. See the section of Environment=
in the manual of systemd.exec for more information.
This patch always substitute environment variables, which enables the
usage of systemd LoadCredential.
The Nix-provided `nix-daemon.socket` file has a
> ConditionPathIsReadWrite=/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket
line, to skip that unit if /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket is
read-only (which is the case in some nixos-containers with that folder
bind-ro-mounted from the host).
In these cases, the unit was skipped.
Systemd 250 (rightfully) started to also skip in these cases:
> [ 237.187747] systemd[1]: Nix Daemon Socket was skipped because of a failed condition check (ConditionPathIsReadWrite=/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket).
However, systemd < 250 didn't skip if /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket
didn't /exist at all/, and we were relying on this bug in the case for
fresh NixOS systems, to have /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket created
initially.
Move the creation of that folder to systemd-tmpfiles, by shipping an
appropriate file in `${nixPackage}/lib/tmpfiles.d/nix-daemon.conf`
(NixOS/nix#6285).
In the meantime, set a systemd tmpfiles rule manually in NixOS.
This has been tested to still work with read-only bind-mounted
/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket in containers, it'll keep them
read-only ;-)
Add an exception to the `paperless-ng-server` service's
`SystemCallFilter` as the `mbind` syscall is needed when consuming a
document while having a classification model present.
This adds an option `services.taskserver.openFirewall` to allow the user
to choose whether or not the firewall port should be opened for the
service. This is no longer the case by default.
See also https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/19504.
As `nix-daemon.service` does not make use of `ExecStop`, we prefer
to keep the socket up and available. This is important for machines
that run Nix-based services, such as automated build, test, and deploy
services, that expect the daemon socket to be available at all times.
See committed inline comment for further explanation.
The `substituters` option in `nix.settings` uses the order
of the substituters listed to define priority. Prior to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/139075,
the corresponding option `binaryCaches` is declared in the `nix` namespace,
which is guaranteed to be merged last. However, the order of merging isn't
guaranteed in submodules. This cause definitions to be appended to the default
value instead of prepended, breaking backwards compatibility as reported in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/158356.
The way this is addressed in the module system is with order priorities via
`mkOrder` and sorting definitions before merging. This PR restores the previous
behavior by setting a higher priority to the substituters option defined internally,
thus all definitions with default priority will be merged before it. This was chosen because
the `mkRenamedOption` function does not preserve order priority so users using legacy options do not have
precise control on placement.
This change should suffice for simple configuration, but further revision to the module system
is needed for to make various `mk*` functions aware of order priorities.
In #139075, mandatoryFeatures was removed from the generated
supportedFeatures, which breaks backward compatibility and is
different from what the description of supportedFeatures says.
Fail scripts on pipeline errors and propagate subshell errors.
If an error occurs in a subshell, including while trying to read a
secret file, we want that error to propagate to the main shell
context. That means we have to set the `inherit_errexit` option, which
allows errors from subshells to propagate to the outer shell. Also,
the subshell cannot run as part of another command, such as `export`,
since that will simply ignore the subshell exit status and only
respect `export`s exit status; first assigning the value to a variable
and then exporting it solves issue.
The `nix.*` options, apart from options for setting up the
daemon itself, currently provide a lot of setting mappings
for the Nix daemon configuration. The scope of the mapping yields
convience, but the line where an option is considered essential
is blurry. For instance, the `extra-sandbox-paths` mapping is
provided without its primary consumer, and the corresponding
`sandbox-paths` option is also not mapped.
The current system increases the maintenance burden as maintainers have to
closely follow upstream changes. In this case, there are two state versions
of Nix which have to be maintained collectively, with different options
avaliable.
This commit aims to following the standard outlined in RFC 42[1] to
implement a structural setting pattern. The Nix configuration is encoded
at its core as key-value pairs which maps nicely to attribute sets, making
it feasible to express in the Nix language itself. Some existing options are
kept such as `buildMachines` and `registry` which present a simplified interface
to managing the respective settings. The interface is exposed as `nix.settings`.
Legacy configurations are mapped to their corresponding options under `nix.settings`
for backwards compatibility.
Various options settings in other nixos modules and relevant tests have been
updated to use structural setting for consistency.
The generation and validation of the configration file has been modified to
use `writeTextFile` instead of `runCommand` for clarity. Note that validation
is now mandatory as strict checking of options has been pushed down to the
derivation level due to freeformType consuming unmatched options. Furthermore,
validation can not occur when cross-compiling due to current limitations.
A new option `publicHostKey` was added to the `buildMachines`
submodule corresponding to the base64 encoded public host key settings
exposed in the builder syntax. The build machine generation was subsequently
rewritten to use `concatStringsSep` for better performance by grouping
concatenations.

`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.
- 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.
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.
most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.
in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
some options have default that are best described in prose, such as
defaults that depend on the system stateVersion, defaults that are
derivations specific to the surrounding context, or those where the
expression is much longer and harder to understand than a simple text
snippet.
escape interpolations in descriptions where possible, replace them with
sufficiently descriptive text elsewhere. also expand cfg.* paths in
descriptions.
adds defaultText for all options that use `cfg.*` values in their
defaults, but only for interpolations with no extra processing (other
than toString where necessary)
Previously the extraComponents added to an overriden package would not
have been considered in hardening measures enforced by the module.
Home Assistant is warning the user about component definitions having
moved away from YAML, so using an override to include support for a
component might become the better way moving forward.
The nix.daemonNiceLevel options allows for setting the nice level of the
Nix daemon process. On a modern Linux kernel with group scheduling the
nice level only affects threads relative to other threads in the same
task group (see sched(7)). Therefore this option has not the effect one
might expect.
The options daemonCPUSchedPolicy and daemonIOSchedClass are introduced
and the daemonIONiceLevel option renamed to daemonIOSchedPrority for
consistency. These options allow for more effective control over CPU
and I/O scheduling.
Instead of setting daemonNiceLevel to a high value to increase the
responsiveness of an interactive system during builds -- which would not
have the desired effect, as described above -- one could set both
daemonCPUSchedPolicy and daemonIOSchedClass to idle.
The latest version of Subsonic (6.1.6) does not suport Java SE 9 or later
because it depends on the JAXB APIs. Those are considered to be Java EE
APIs are no longer contained on the default classpath in Java SE 9 and
are completely removed in Java SE 11..
Don't worry, it's is true by default. But I think this is important to
have because NixOS indeed shouldn't need Nix at run time when the
installation is not being modified, and now we can verify that.
NixOS images that cannot "self-modify" are a legitamate
use-case that this supports more minimally. One should be able to e.g. do a
sshfs mount and use `nixos-install` to modify them remotely, or just
discard them and build fresh ones if they are run VMs or something.
The next step would be to make generations optional, allowing just
baking `/etc` and friends rather than using activation scripts. But
that's more involved so I'm leaving it out.
This is the first version of the mautrix-facebook module. Due to lack of secret support on NixOS as well as the requirement of a homeserver domain it requires some setup. For completeness here is my working config using NixOps secrets:
```nix
deployment.keys."mautrix-facebook-config.env" = {
text = ''
MAUTRIX_FACEBOOK_APPSERVICE_AS_TOKEN=${secrets.as_token}
MAUTRIX_FACEBOOK_APPSERVICE_HS_TOKEN=${secrets.hs_token}
'';
destDir = "/var/keys";
};
deployment.keys."mautrix-facebook-registration.yaml" = {
text = builtins.toJSON config.services.mautrix-facebook.registrationData;
destDir = "/var/keys";
user = "matrix-synapse";
};
users.users.matrix-synapse.extraGroups = ["keys"];
systemd.services.matrix-synapse.after = ["keys.service"];
systemd.services.matrix-synapse.wants = ["keys.service"];
services.mautrix-facebook = {
enable = true;
settings = {
homeserver.domain = "bots.kevincox.ca";
bridge = {
displayname_template = "{displayname}";
permissions = {
"@kevincox:matrix.org" = "admin";
};
};
};
environmentFile = "/var/keys/mautrix-facebook-config.env";
registrationData = {
as_token = secrets.as_token;
hs_token = secrets.hs_token;
};
};
systemd.services.mautrix-facebook = rec {
wants = ["keys.target"];
after = wants;
};
services.matrix-synapse.app_service_config_files = [
"/var/keys/mautrix-facebook-registration.yaml"
];
```
The MemoryDenyWriteExecute systemd option is widely known to be
incompatible with nodejs, and causes service crashes as reported in #119687.
Fixes#119687.
Adds the ability to provide the --write flag in addition to the --serve flag via
a new option, services.sshServe.write.
A user can now share their system as a remote builder with friends easily as
follows:
{
nix = {
sshServe = {
enable = true;
write = true;
keys = ["ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1k... alice@example.org"];
};
};
}

Matrix homeservers have two important domains. The user-visible server_name and the homeserver domain which serves most of the traffic but is really seen by users. The docs around this variable said "This is used by remote servers to connect to this server" which is very confusing because most of the remote server traffic actually goes the server domain, not the server_name domain. (The server_name domain is only used to fetch the .well-known file that points at the server domain).
I largely copied the wording from https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/homeserver_sample_config.html as I found it much more clear.

Printers are usually connected over USB to serial interfaces that are
mounted as tty character devices owned by the dialout group. Add our
octoprint service to this group at runtime to allow access to these
printers.
The paperless project has moved on to paperless-ng and the original
paperless package in Nixpkgs has stopped working recently (due to
version incompatibility with the providede Django package).
Instead of investing more time into the old module we should migrate all
users to the new module instead.
Before this commit, the `flake` option was typed with `types.unspecified`.
This type get's merged via [`mergeDefaultOption`](ebb592a04c/lib/options.nix (L119-L128)), which has a line
```nix
else if all isFunction list then x: mergeDefaultOption loc (map (f: f x) list)
```
`lib.isFunction` detects an attrs in the shape of `{__functor = ...}` as
a function and hence this line substitutes such attrs with a function
(f: f x).
If now, a flake input has a `__functor` as it's output, this will
coerce the once attrs to a function. This breaks a lot of things later
in the stack, for example a later `lib.filterAttrs seive <LAMBDA>` will
fail for obious reasons.
According to @infinisil, `types.unspecified` is due to deprecation. In
the meantime this PR provides a specific fix for the specific problem
discovered.
