Re: [Nix-dev] vagrant-nixos-plugin

2015-10-18 Thread zimbatm 
Hello,

Thanks for the pointer Charles.

I had a look at the Vagrant source code and support for generating the
/etc/nixos/vagrant-hostname.nix and /etc/nixos/vagrant-network.nix file has
been stable since release v1.6.4. What I didn’t see is any invocation
to nixos-rebuild
switch so I’m not really sure how the configuration is applied. The
simplest way to apply those changes would be to add a shell provisioner.
One downside of that approach is that vagrant provision has to be called
explicitly after config changes, cycling the machine power isn’t enough.

config.provisioner :shell, inline: "nixos-rebuild switch"

It wasn’t necessarily clear if the main vagrant project would accept such
os-specific provisioner so in the end I just removed the duplicate
functionality in the vagrant-nixos-plugin plugin.

Release v0.1.1 is a much cleaner version of the plugin and does just the
provisioning bits.

One notable addition is that just adding the following statement inside of
the configuration is enough to provision hostname or networking changes
(but vagrant provision still needs to be called explicitly):

config.provisioner :nixos

[Nix-dev] vagrant-nixos-plugin

2015-09-01 Thread Christian Theune 
Hi,

even though the "vagrant-nixos” plugin was featured on the Twitter feed 
recently - the original author seems to be MIA and Zimbatm and I want to move 
forward. We’ve been trying to get in contact for a couple of months now and we 
thought it’s time to fork and move on.

We have created “vagrant-nixos-plugin” [1] (yeah, we’re screwed, the name of 
the ruby gem is gone until the original Chris reappears) and forked it on 
Github. We’re currently working on cleaning it up, getting a few bugs that have 
been annoying Zimbatm and me, and then also provide pre-baked 15.09 Vagrant 
images.

This will take a couple of days, but if anyone wants to jump onboard, you’re 
obviously welcome.

At some point we think it could be worthwhile to move those repositories (for 
the Vagrant imaging and the plugin) under the NixOS team umbrella.

Cheers,
Christian
