Interesting. One of the NixOS guys just posted to planet.gentoo.org. As
a long time gentoo user, who has been working on building up the packages
necessary for a robust apache-mesos cluster, I find Nixos intriquing.

Specifically::

My goals are to not use HDFS (its a slug) in lieu of btrfs/cephfs.

In fact the main packages I need, seem to all be in nixos::

mesos, spark, zookeeper, marathon, storm and others. In fact all I could 
find missing is 'tachyon'.

My goal with a *nix cluster is Big science; that is all the resources
working on a single big problem, like computational chemistry, subsurface
modelling, Massive video redering mixing graphics and lived video, CI, etc etc.


Is there a quorum of folks with similar interests?

I'm also testing openmp (clang-3.7.x) and RDMA via OpenACC (gcc-5.2) a like
minded community ?

Surely nixos is design for clusters ?

What packages does nixos have to implement and have graphical
representations of data via a DAG?

How difficult is it to use gentoo's ebuilds for nixos?
Is there a process to convert ebuilds for use on nixos?

PS, I'm not so found of Virtual Machines, as I'm a bare-metal kind of hack
really looking to migrate from amd to aarch64. Nixos does support aarch64
(arm64) right?

wwr,
James

Would be nice to release NixOS 15.09 with a new logo! :-)

@edolstra: What are your thoughts?

[Nix-dev] ipython/jupyter no notebook command available

[Ruben Astudillo]

Hi all

I was trying to play a little with ihaskell. So I launched a nix-shell
like this

 nix-shell -p pypyPackages.ipython \
 pypyPackages.ipython_genutils \
 pypyPackages.jupyter_client \
 pypyPackages.jupyter_core \
 haskellPackages.ihaskell

To set up the correct environment. With it `ihaskell install` runs
correctly and `jupyter kernelspec list' shows "Available kernels:
haskell". But running "jupyter notebook" "jupyter qtconsole" "ipython
notebook" returns saying that such command is not found.

I am missing something? considering I haven't used ipython/jupyter
before. Any help is welcome.

Hi James,

I have very similar goals. It would be great if there are more individuals.

Thanks,
Rohit

There is a convenience wrapper that is bound to the ihaskell attribute.
The following invocation should give you the correct behaviour:

nix-shell -p ihaskell --command "ihaskell install"

But right now it is broken, see
