where i need to declare system to keep running colmena 0.4.0-pre without --impure flag? meta.nixpkgs = import nixpkgs { system = "..."; } | 01:43:59 |

meta.nixpkgs = import nixpkgs { system = "..."; } is not working for me then | 08:40:09 |

 farcaller | is it typical to define something like fileSystems."/" ... or all the boot.* in defaults? I'm using virtualization/kubevirt.nix profile for nixos-generate but it seems that I need to copy its contents over to make things tick. | 16:58:46 |

 Zhaofeng Li | (missed this) Hmm, maybe there is something else. Have you tried --show-trace? | 15:50:39 |
| Zhaofeng Li | You can use everything that nixos-generate generated for you. A typical pattern is:
{
alpha = import ./hosts/alpha/configuration.nix;
}

| @yuka:yuka.dev | heya | 14:38:35 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | So... I'm looking at colmena for replacing my own 100 line deployment module. | 14:44:43 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | It seems like the design is quite similar, with nodes (in my case they are called hosts) being passed in as specialArgs | 14:45:00 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | What I don't like at all is that colmena itself is not tracked at a flake dependency | 14:45:30 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | And that it has its own evaluation entry points | 14:45:43 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | It would be way cooler if colmena was a flake, that provides a function makeHive | 14:46:07 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | colmena could then use .# as entry point with the output of makeHive providing the necessary things.
And the colmena package itself could be re-exported to my flake.
So that I do nix run .#colmena apply and it uses the colmena version pinned in my flake. | 14:50:02 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | As a bonus, it would remove the need for this wrapper flake to get pure evaluation | 14:50:43 |
| @yuka:yuka.dev | Another bonus: This could make it possible to be compatible with nixosConfigurations and nixos-rebuild and so on | 15:14:47 |
