Hi,
I am now trying to get Tiny-Tiny-RSS [1] to work in NixOS via nixops. TTRSS
is an RSS/Atom aggregator and reader that you can run on your own server
and then access in multiple ways to read your news. (Including an android
app).
I implemented it as a subservice for httpd much like the mediawiki module.
And, the app itself is working fine. However, TTRSS comes with a php-cgi
script to update the feeds, that is intended to be run as a daemon [2]. And
this poses the following question:
Is it possible to define a service (daemon) from within an httpd
subservice, and how can I do that? Or, will I have to define a separate
(top-level) service that is manually activated in the machine configuration
and somehow depends on the TTRSS installation path? Which way would you
recommend, or prefer?
My current attempt looks like this:
-- machine configuration contains
services.httpd = {
enable = true;
adminAddr = "ad...@example.com";
extraSubservices = singleton
{ function = import ./ttrss-service.nix;
siteHostName = "192.168.56.101";
};
};
-- subservice configuration contains
systemd.services.ttrssUpdate = {
description = "TTRSS feed-update daemon";
wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ];
after = [ "postgresql.service" "httpd.service" ];
serviceConfig = {
ExecStart = "${php}/bin/php ${ttrssRoot}/update.php --daemon";
User = serverInfo.serverConfig.user;
Restart = "always";
};
};
Best, Andreas
