Re: [Nix-dev] nixos-rebuild without Internet

In general, no, there isn't "partial" rebuild, because Nix itself doesn't support "partial" builds (and NixOS is just another derivation) There are workarounds, however: - don't setup network via NixOS modules, do it with direct imperative commands - often some commands are hidden. For example,

So, the assumption is: "security updates hardly should break stuff, so we can apply them without tests" And desire is: "don't publish untested changes to channel" This clearly leads to necessity of two channels, just as described in

Re: [Nix-dev] Declarative VMs in libvirt/Qemu

You can get some inspiration from NixOps libvirtd backend. Also, I think little changes to NixOps will allow to start/stop non-NixOS images too. Though I've run into issues with network of libvirtd machines (DHCP problems)... 2017-05-15 20:26 GMT+03:00 Justin Humm : >

[Nix-dev] Postgresql, rsyslog and systemd journal

Hi. I want to enable syslog log destination in Postgresql. Existing postgresql module hardcodes log_destination to 'stderr', so I use # alter system set log_destination = 'syslog' in psql session. The problem is, logs still are routed to systemd journal, not to configured `rsyslog`. As far

Re: [Nix-dev] Use PHP FPM with 2 PHP versions simultaneously

Apart from container solution, there are no easy ways to do this. 1. You can patch nixpkgs and add option `phpPackage` per-pool, that overrides global `phpPackage` 2. You can use `lib.mkForce` like here: systemd.services.phpfpm-your-pool-name.serviceConfig = lib.mkForce { Slice =

Re: [Nix-dev] Typing nix − funding campaign

That looks like a feature of gradual typing: unless you exlicitly specify type annotations, it can infer type, be it ?, ? -> ? or more complicated. But I'm too interested on how to specify type for `if` without introducing local lambda (e.g., will there be special syntax for this). 2017-03-29

Strange, I have lot's of containers with "-" and experience no problems. But maybe you've exceeded by accident limit 13 symbols per container name? Also, last time I tried "veth" networking, I was struggling from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/16330. My container experience was awful
