In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.orgNo, nix.dev linkchecks are pure Sphinix | 21:14:58 | |
In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.org* No, nix.dev linkchecks are pure Sphinx | 21:15:15 | |
| I think scheduled gha is the way to go for external links | 21:15:30 | |
| am I right in assuming nix+nixpkgs+nixos manuals and wiki.nixos.org have a lot of overlap in people contributing? | 21:16:55 | |
In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.orgEh, not that much. There are like 2-3 regular contributors who have touched all of them, but otherwise these are mostly disjoint groups as far as I can tell | 21:19:06 | |
| maybe a single gha which checks external links among all manuals + home-pages + wiki-dump could work? | 21:19:23 | |
| wait, need to think about rate-limits as well. | 21:19:32 | |
In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.org* Eh, not that much. There are like 2-3 regular contributors who have touched all of them, but otherwise these are mostly disjoint groups as far as I can tell. I mean, it's complicated. Define "a lot". There's not that many people working on documentation overall. | 21:20:30 | |

| I found wiki to be easier to contribute to definitely | 21:21:24 | |
In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.orgThey all have very different update cycles, and running the checks in some other location from where the source is modified will just lead to people having to jump hoops. Had that with the Nix manual, please don't. | 21:21:56 | |
| ok so gha per repo then, tested on corresponding stable manuals and sites and each repo can adjust the run frequency per its release cycle | 21:25:43 | |
| this doesn't need an rfc does it? | 21:28:50 | |
| I'm also interested in things like this https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-ecosystem-mind-map/28682/17
Another thing I'm interested in is to visualize/map nixpkgs health, i.e. how many packages are fresh, maintainer activity, most maintainted packages, packages without maintainers, long inactive maintainers etc. all of these clearly visible somewhere like nixpkgs.health. I see rfc 180 which adresses a few of these. | 21:37:17 | |

| repology statistics could be useful too | 21:41:21 | |
going to bed, I'll see about the linkchecks via testers.lycheeLinkCheck across all these repos tomorrow | 21:42:44 | |
