@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbMaybe i should do that, i need to write myself a more comprehensive nixng module for nginx, the one i have is shit13:59:47
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbI could also reuse the nixos one in nixng but i dont like it that much14:00:22
@hexa:lossy.networkhexamaybe you just need to stop doing nixng14:00:51
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa🤷14:00:53
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbOuch14:01:01
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbThe footprint of nixos is too big to be running 30 of them in containers14:01:36
@hexa:lossy.networkhexapeople are regularly working on bringing that down14:02:01
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbStart by removing systemd14:02:09
@hexa:lossy.networkhexamore people would like to use a more minimal nixos14:02:10
@hexa:lossy.networkhexamodular services maybe14:02:35
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbI dont want systemd in my containers. I have nothing against it in normal deployments, but a program container should be a single program, not systemd and all of the other shit14:02:50
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbFair, but nixos has a hard dep on systemd so its problematic for me14:03:08
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbYeah that would help me as well. Though i already have partial nixos compatibility and can load some nixos service modules14:03:29

@atoix:matrix.orgatoix Hey all. Is there a prescribed way of extending lib with custom functions and passing it to runNixOSTests? It looks like I have to manually set this up. For context, I have added some utility functions in the lib and am using these inside the nixos modules. This works fine usually but it fails when running tests which are written using 'runNixOSTests'. It seems I can't rely on _module.args to pass the modified lib even if I set it up in the flake explicitly. 12:43:22
@scrumplex:duckhub.ioScrumplex I think it's generally not recommended to extend lib, as it's not very reliable in cases like yours. A lot of consumable modules define their libs as module options and consume them using config.myLib 12:54:05
@scrumplex:duckhub.ioScrumplex Alternatively some provide a flake input that they can then reference by wrapping the nixos modules as flake outputs and passing self to them 12:55:02
