Re: [Nix-dev] Announcing nix-acbuild . Create appc containers from nix packages with ease

[Putten, A. van (Arian)]

Interesting,

mine seems conceptually a less complicated though.  As I'm not rewriting 
directories. simply copying over the nix store closure needed to create the 
manifest.

[Nix-dev] Announcing nix-acbuild . Create appc containers from nix packages with ease

[Putten, A. van (Arian)]

Hey there folks,

Are you not in the position to force your company to run NixOS, but can you 
convince them to
run containers?   For example, your are running a Kubernetes cluster on CoreOS 
or Openshif?

I've created a small nix script that packages up any nix package into a AppC 
container, that can then
be run using the rkt container engine.   I use this to deploy my haskell 
applications to a CoreOS kubernetes cluster.

The only thing you need is a computer with nix installed. NixOS is not a 
prerequisite.

Documentation is not there yet, but I've added an example how you would deploy 
nginx. The script
isn't perfect yet, but it is pretty feature complete. Feedback would be 
appreciated!

Hi,

I'm not at FOSDEM, but I'd love to put some notes/ideas in there.

Am I allowed to?

[Nix-dev] FOSDEM NixOS meetup minutes

[Putten, A. van (Arian)]

Dear list,

We had a very spontaneous NixOS discussion panel at FOSDEM.

I took minutes.  I must say they're a bit rushy at times, so add stuff to it
you think isn't clear or is lacking in content.  Thanks!

[Nix-dev] Caution: LetsEncrypt broken in 16.09 - fix included in this mail

[Putten, A. van (Arian)]

Dear list,


Yesterday I was setting up a new server with letsencrypt on 16.09 and the 
certificate
renewal failed, causing my TLS setup to break.

Luckily, the bug that caused this has already been fixed in master and 
backported to 16.09 in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/21102

However, Hydra is currently being annoying, which is making it impossible to 
currently push this fix to users 
(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/21145).

For people using LetsEncrypt, it is important to temporarily patch your NixOS 
configuration such that your
certificates do not expire due to the renewal service crashing.

First, clone nixpkgs such that you can refer to the fix (I used it as a 
submodule):

$ git clone g...@github.com:nixos/nixpkgs.git
$ cd nixpkgs; git checkout 8341cfb6
$ cd ..

Now add this line to your configuration.nix (making sure PATH/TO/nixpkgs points 
to where you cloned the repo):


nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides = pkgs: rec { simp_le = pkgs.callPackage 
PATH/TO/nixpkgs/pkgs/tools/admin/simp_le {}; };


now rebuild and you should be fine.

Once the update has been built by hydra, it is safe to delete this line again.


Cheers,

Arian van Putten
