@blaggacao:matrix.org@blaggacao:matrix.org I think I found it, regular modules accessing config.system is recursive... 16:40:04

Hi Zhaofeng Li !

I beleive colmena eval was only ever made to be impure (so the --impure option might be a mistake), see builtins.currentSystem in:

    introspect = f:
      f {
        lib = nixpkgs.lib // builtins;
        pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${builtins.currentSystem};
        nodes = l.mapAttrs (evalNode {_module.check = false;}) comb;
      };

Hmm, could you link the code? The current implementation is: https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena/blob/956c3363b875695fba30a5a8033dc543c2cd4326/src/nix/hive/eval.nix#L193

Ah, it's in your make-honey.nix, missed it. But the options should be passed correctly and there is no --impure:

$ colmena eval -E '{...}: builtins.currentSystem'
warning: Git tree '/home/zhaofeng/Git/fleet' is dirty
[INFO ] Using flake: git+file:///home/zhaofeng/Git/fleet?dir=nix

@blaggacao:matrix.org@blaggacao:matrix.org I just made a make-mead for nixos-generators, works pretty much the same way (and thereby makes colmena and nixos-generate two CLI of the same kind, sort of). Required really just a very small fix to nixos-generators 21:13:34

Zhaofeng Li: re https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6530#issuecomment-1288195277

I wonder if there is a possibility to leverage the nix bundler interface instead of making a synthetic wrapper-flake...

But I haven't really dug deep on this, just planning to do this for styx...

There isn't a username in ssh-ng://your_ip, did you set deployment.targetUser to null? If so, then the default user it connects as (same as your username if you didn't configure anything) isn't trusted by the Nix daemon

@rendakuenthusiast:imperishable.name@rendakuenthusiast:imperishable.nameonce I've transitioned a nixos server onto colmena, what's the correct thing to do with the existing /etc/nixos/configuration.nix file?01:25:46
@rendakuenthusiast:imperishable.name@rendakuenthusiast:imperishable.namepresumably that file no longer has any relationship to the actual configuration of the server?01:26:05

It no longer has any relationship to the actual config and can be deleted. You can also put a fake nixos-rebuild script into systemPackage so you don't accidentally run the actual rebuild on the machine.
