@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackerman That doesn't seem like a colmena-specific question, maybe try #nix:nixos.org 14:22:59
@ronixx:matrix.orgroshan | byteio.in 🌷im using colmena to deploy my docker container14:25:27
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackermanthe nixos host containing the container right?14:25:45

the nixos host containing the container right?
yes
14:26:00
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackermanyeah this doesn't look like an issue with the deployment (which is colmena's job), but with the configuration14:26:39
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa changed their display name from hexa (22.11 now) to hexa.14:38:47

if you set deployment.buildOnTarget for a machine, or pass --build-on-target on the command line, it will instead build directly on the host that's being deployed (though in the case of your workstation it will still end up being built on your workstation because that's what's being deployed)
Ok, yes I see. This makes a lot of sense, thank you.

@whentze:matrix.orgWanja Hentzehow are you folks coping with long NixOS eval times when using colmena?17:40:42
@whentze:matrix.orgWanja Hentzeany practical tricks I can pull to make my hive eval faster?17:40:55
@zhaofeng:zhaofeng.liZhaofeng LiHave you tried `--evaluator streaming`? It makes evaluation actually parallel using nix-eval-jobs. It's not the default yet but may be soon17:54:22
@ask-yourself:matrix.org@ask-yourself:matrix.org

I'm trying to switch to use doas instead of sudo, but I'm getting this:

.dotfiles on  main [!+] ⊥ doas colmena apply-local
error: getting the HEAD of the Git tree '/home/isaac/.dotfiles' failed with exit code 1:
       error: executing 'git': No such file or directory

(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: ChildFailure { exit_code: 1 }', src/command/apply_local.rs:95:55
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

I've tried adding deployment.privilegeEscalationCommand = ["doas"]; but still same result.

has the eval-node-limit heuristic improved? Without an explicit limit it at least used to completely blow my laptop up

This is because nix tries to call git as part of the flake evaluation, and presumably it's not on PATH for root when using doas (maybe it is with sudo?)

@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackerman does just colmena apply-local work now? 18:57:42
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux HackermanBecause running the evaluation as your user makes sense18:57:50

as in, I think setting privilegeEscalationCommand should make it work
18:58:16
@ask-yourself:matrix.org@ask-yourself:matrix.org I never use colmena apply-local. I always need to do sudo colmena-apply local (I thought this was normal!). Yes, sudo colmena-apply local currently works, yes. 18:59:52
@ask-yourself:matrix.org@ask-yourself:matrix.org

Also this is current doas conf:

{user, ...}: {
  security = {
    doas = {
      enable = true;
      extraRules = [
        {
          keepEnv = true;
          noPass = true;
          users = ["${user}"];
        }
      ];
    };
    sudo.enable = true;
  };
}

19:00:22
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackermanwith privilegeEscalationCommand set, it should work without sudo or doas, and colmena should invoke whichever it is19:00:49
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackermanand not evaluate or build as root, which is good because that's not necessary19:01:01
@ask-yourself:matrix.org@ask-yourself:matrix.org deployment.privilegeEscalationCommand = ["doas"]; is also set. 19:01:03
@linus:schreibt.jetztLinux Hackerman right, then try plain colmena apply-local 19:01:17

There hasn't been any change to the heuristic which assumes a constant memory size for each node. We can probably make the number bigger if people keep running into things like this. It's bit difficult to estimate the memory usage to evaluate a "typical" condig
