This addresses #120263 in part, by allowing users to override the
github-runner derivation that is bound to turn non-functional via the
self-update mechanism. (And it'll allow using a buildFHSUserEnv-based
derivation, if someone ends up building that!)
Add support for folder jobs
(https://plugins.jenkins.io/cloudbees-folder/) by reworking the service
to support nested jobs.
This also fixes this deprecation warning (as a happy side effect):
WARNING:jenkins_jobs.cli.subcommand.test:(Deprecated) The default output behavior of `jenkins-jobs test` when given the --output flag will change in JJB 3.0. Instead of writing jobs to OUTPUT/jobname; they will be written to OUTPUT/jobname/config.xml. The new behavior can be enabled by the passing `--config-xml` parameter
While looking at the sphinx package I noticed it was heavily
undermaintained, which is when we noticed nand0p has been inactive for
roughly 18 months. It is therefore prudent to assume they will not be
maintaining their packages, modules and tests.
- Their last contribution to nixpkgs was in 2019/12
- On 2021/05/08 I wrote them an email to the address listed in the
maintainer-list, which they didn't reply to.
The buildkite agent supports multiple tags with the same key. This
functionality is used to have a [single agent listen on multiple
queues](https://buildkite.com/docs/agent/v3/queues#setting-an-agents-queue).
However, having the tags be of type `attrsOf str` means that
we cannot suport this use case. This commit modifies the type
of tags to be `attrsOf (either str (listOf str))` where the list
is expanded into multiple tags with the same key.
Example:
```
{tags = {queue = ["default", "testing"];};}
```
generates
```
tags="queue=default,queue=testing"
```
in the buildkite agent configuration.
* github-runner: init at 2.277.1
* nixos/github-runner: initial version
* nixos/github-runner: add warning if tokenFile in Nix store
* github-runner: don't accept unexpected attrs
* github-runner: formatting nits
* github-runner: add pre and post hooks to checkPhase
* nixos/github-runner: update ExecStartPre= comment
* nixos/github-runner: adapt tokenFile option description
Also note that not only a change to the option value will trigger a
reconfiguration but also modifications to the file's content.
* nixos/github-runner: remove mkDefault for DynamicUser=
* nixos/github-runner: create a parent for systemd dirs
Adds a parent directory "github-runner/" to all of the systemd lifecycle
directories StateDirectory=, RuntimeDirectory= and LogDirectory=.
Doing this has two motivations:
1. Something like this would required if we want to support multiple
runners configurations. Please note that this is already possible
using NixOS containers.
2. Having an additional parent directory makes it easier to remap
any of the directories. Without a parent, systemd is going to
complain if, for example, the given StateDirectory= is a symlink.
* nixos/github-runner: use specifier to get abs runtime path
* nixos/github-runner: use hostname as default for option `name`
Until now, the runner registration did not set the `--name` argument if
the configuration option was `null`, the default for the option.
According to GitHub's documentation, this instructs the registration
script to use the machine's hostname.
This commit causes the registration to always pass the `--name` argument
to the runner configuration script. The option now defaults to
`networking.hostName` which should be always set on NixOS.
This change becomes necessary as the systemd service name includes the
name of the runner since fcfa809 and, hence, expects it to be set. Thus,
an unset `name` option leads to an error.
* nixos/github-runner: use types.str for `name` option
Forcing a `name` option to comply with a pattern which could also be
used as a hostname is probably not required by GitHub.
* nixos/github-runner: pass dir paths explicitly for ExecStartPre=
* nixos/github-runner: update variable and script naming
* nixos/github-runner: let systemd choose the user/group
User and group naming restrictions are a complex topic [1] that I don't
even want to touch. Let systemd figure out the username and group and
reference it in our scripts through the USER environment variable.
[1] https://systemd.io/USER_NAMES/
* Revert "nixos/github-runner: use types.str for `name` option"
The escaping applied to the subdirectory paths given to StateDirectory=,
RuntimeDirectory= and LogsDirectory= apparently doesn't use the same
strategy that is used to escape unit names (cf. systemd-escape(1)). This
makes it unreasonably hard to construct reliable paths which work for
StateDirectory=/RuntimeDirectory=/LogsDirectory= and ExecStartPre=.
Against this background, I decided to (re-)apply restrictions to the
name a user might give for the GitHub runner. The pattern for
`networking.hostName` seems like a reasonable choice, also as its value
is the default if the `name` option isn't set.
This reverts commit 193ac67ba3.
* nixos/github-runner: use types.path for `tokenFile` option
* nixos/github-runner: escape options used as shell arguments
* nixos/github-runner: wait for network-online.target
* github-runner: ignore additional online tests
This will make it easier to track specifically where queries are being
made from (assuming a `log_line_prefix` that includes `%a` in the
postgres configuration).
These were broken since 2016:
f0367da7d1
since StartLimitIntervalSec got moved into [Unit] from [Service].
StartLimitBurst has also been moved accordingly, so let's fix that one
too.
NixOS systems have been producing logs such as:
/nix/store/wf98r55aszi1bkmln1lvdbp7znsfr70i-unit-caddy.service/caddy.service:31:
Unknown key name 'StartLimitIntervalSec' in section 'Service', ignoring.
I have also removed some unnecessary duplication in units disabling
rate limiting since setting either interval or burst to zero disables it
(ad16158c10/src/basic/ratelimit.c (L16))
This should NOT be backported to 20.09!
When 21.03 is released, the DB changes are about a year old and
operators had two release cycles for the upgrade. At this point it
should be fair to remove the compat layer to reduce the complexity of
the module itself.
In the current implementation, there's no possibility to modify the default
parameter for keepalive. This is a number that indicates how frequently
keepalive messages should be sent from the worker to the buildmaster,
expressed in seconds. The default (600) causes a message to be sent to
the buildmaster at least once every 10 minutes.
If the worker is behind a NAT box or stateful firewall, these messages
may help to keep the connection alive: some NAT boxes tend to forget about
a connection if it has not been used in a while. When this happens, the
buildmaster will think that the worker has disappeared, and builds will
time out. Meanwhile the worker will not realize than anything is wrong.
Since Buildbot 0.9.0, status targets were deprecated and ignored.
There's a very small line on startup explaining that, and status simply
isn't reported. Avoid others the same headaches, and do it right in the
NixOS module.
As there might have been changes in the way reporters are organized, and
configuration might need to be migrated remove the old option, and not
just provide an alias.
It's pbPort, and it's also a connection string, meaning
listen-on-localhost is also possible. Provide an alias for the old
option name, so old configs still work.
We already set the relevant env vars in the systemd services. That does
not help one when executing any of the executables outside a service,
e.g. when creating a new user.
Also removed `pkgs.hydra-flakes` since flake-support has been merged
into master[1]. Because of that, `pkgs.hydra-unstable` is now compiled
against `pkgs.nixFlakes` and currently requires a patch since Hydra's
master doesn't compile[2] atm.

Upgrades Hydra to the latest master/flake branch. To perform this
upgrade, it's needed to do a non-trivial db-migration which provides a
massive performance-improvement[1].
The basic ideas behind multi-step upgrades of services between NixOS versions
have been gathered already[2]. For further context it's recommended to
read this first.
Basically, the following steps are needed:
* Upgrade to a non-breaking version of Hydra with the db-changes
(columns are still nullable here). If `system.stateVersion` is set to
something older than 20.03, the package will be selected
automatically, otherwise `pkgs.hydra-migration` needs to be used.
* Run `hydra-backfill-ids` on the server.
* Deploy either `pkgs.hydra-unstable` (for Hydra master) or
`pkgs.hydra-flakes` (for flakes-support) to activate the optimization.
The steps are also documented in the release-notes and in the module
using `warnings`.
`pkgs.hydra` has been removed as latest Hydra doesn't compile with
`pkgs.nixStable` and to ensure a graceful migration using the newly
introduced packages.
To verify the approach, a simple vm-test has been added which verifies
the migration steps.

* nixos/buildkite: drop user option
This reverts 8c6b1c3eaa.
Turns out, buildkite-agent has logic to write .ssh/known_hosts files and
only really works when $HOME and the user homedir are in sync.
On top of that, we provision ssh keys in /var/lib/buildkite-agent, which
doesn't work if that other users' homedir points elsewhere (we can cheat
by setting $HOME, but then getent and $HOME provide conflicting
results).
So after all, it's better to only run the system-wide buildkite agent as
the "buildkite-agent" user only - if one wants to run buildkite as
different users, systemd user services might be a better fit.
* nixosTests.buildkite-agent: add node with separate user and no ssh key
This gets passed to BUILDKITE_SHELL, which will specify the shell being
used to executes script in.
Defaults to `${pkgs.bash}/bin/bash -e -c`, matching how buildkite
behaves on other distros.
SSH public keys aren't needed to clone private repos, and if we only
need to configure a single attribute, there's no need for the "openssh"
attrset anymore.
This applies [hydra PR #432](https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/432)
to the NixOS module in nixpkgs:
```
commit 4efd078977e5ea20e1104783efc324cba11690bc
Author: Bas van Dijk <v.dijk.bas@gmail.com>
Date: Sun Dec 11 15:35:38 2016 +0100
Only set buildMachinesFiles when nix.buildMachines is defined
```
The following commit from 2016 in hydra removed the `--option
build-use-substitutes` from the hydra-queue-runner service:
```

Author: Eelco Dolstra <edolstra@gmail.com>
Date: Fri Oct 7 20:23:05 2016 +0200
Update to reflect BinaryCacheStore changes
BinaryCacheStore no longer implements buildPaths() and ensurePath(),
so we need to use copyPath() / copyClosure().
```
It would be better if the hydra module in NixOS matches the upstream
module.
During the last update, `hydra-notify` was rewritten as a daemon which
listens to postgresql notifications for each build[1]. The module
uses the `hydra-notify.service` unit from upstream's Hydra module and
the VM test ensures that email notifications are sent properly.
Also updated `hydra-init.service` to install `pg_trgm` on a local
database if needed[2].

Currently there are two calls to curl in the reloadScript, neither which
check for errors. If something is misconfigured (like wrong authToken),
the only trace that something wrong happened is this log message:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
<h1>Bad Message 400</h1><pre>reason: Illegal character VCHAR='<'</pre>
The service isn't marked as failed, so it's easy to miss.
Fix it by passing --fail to curl.
While at it:
* Add $curl_opts and $jenkins_url variables to keep the curl command
lines DRY.
* Add --show-error to curl to show short error message explanation when
things go wrong (like HTTP 401 error).
* Lower-case the $CRUMB variable as upper case is for exported environment
variables.
The new behaviour, when having wrong accessToken:
Asking Jenkins to reload config
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 401
And the service is clearly marked as failed in `systemctl --failed`.
@cleverca found this bug in the declarative hooks config. Any shell
variables referenced in a hook script would get expanded by the hooks
directory builder.
Prevent variable expansion by quoting the here doc limit string.
Pass the -L flag to curl to make it follow redirects. This fixes an
issue I found when setting up reverse proxy for Jenkins. Without this
fix, the returned HTTP code was stuck at 302, making postStart fail the
service (it expects 200 or 403).
Also removes configText, functionality is now provided more conveniently by configOptions.
Keep in mind that this breaks compatibility with previous configurations,
configFile provides a means to protect the CI token from being written into the nix store.
The current behavior was for gitlab-runner is to immediately terminate when there
was a restart required. This can lead to aborted builds and is annoying to users.
By enabling graceful mode gitlab-runner will wait for all builds to finish before
terminating. The disadvantage is that a nixos-rebuild switch needs to wait till
all jobs are done. Because of that it is not enabled by default.
- adds distro dependency
- buildbot nodaemon in service module
- fakerepo for module tests
- service module parameter fixup
- tested on nixos
- tested on darwin
1) The forking behavior of `buildbot start` is temporarily broken for
mysterious reasons that I'm still looking into
2) Let systemd do the forking: no point in using two different process
startup wait loops
The nixbld group belongs to nix-daemon and you really don't want to be
in it. If you are in it, nix-daemon will kill your processes when you
least expect it :)
The extraOptions option has default values which seems surprising. This
moves those values to startupOptions (which is what gocd-agent uses) and
empties out the default extraOptions.
The gocd-agent startupOptions description was also changed to remove the
mention of the example (given there isn't one).
- Agent now takes a full URL to the Go.CD server
- Instruct the agent to attempt restart every 30s upon failure
- Test's Accept header did not match the server's expectation
- Replace the tests' complex Awk matches with calls to `jq`

As pointed out by @danbst, the tomcat NixOS module expects packages
listed in services.tomcat.webapps to either be direct .war file paths or
have .war files inside a "webapps" directory.
Commit 4075c10a59
("jenkins: move .war file from $out to $out/lib/jenkins.war") broke
jenkins + tomcat. Fix it by moving jenkins.war to $out/webapps/.
Fixes#14137, also known as:
$ nix-shell -p jenkins
bash: source: /nix/store/ln1yw6c2v8bb2cjqfr1z5aqcssw054wa-jenkins-2.3:
cannot execute binary file
[nix-shell exited with error]
The problem is that jenkins.war is not installed inside the directory
$out, but rather _as the file_ $out. Fix it by moving the file to
$out/lib/jenkins.war.
While at it, move buildCommand so that the "meta" section is at the end
of the expression (standard style), and quote shell variables.
This was originally removed in d4d0e449d7.
The intent was not to maintain hydra expression at two places.
Nowadays we have enough devs to maintain this despite copy/pasta.
This should encourage more people to use Hydra, which is a really
great piece of software together with Nix.
Tested a deploy using https://github.com/peti/hydra-tutorial
* Perform HTTP HEAD request instead of full GET (lighter weight)
* Don't log output of curl to the journal (it's noise/debug)
* Use explicit http:// URL scheme
* Reduce poll interval from 10s to 2s (respond to state changes
quicker). Probably not relevant on boot (lots of services compete for
the CPU), but online service restarts/reloads should be quicker.
* Pass --fail to curl (should be more robust against false positives)
* Use 4 space indent for shell code.
