| shapr | Is there a new fixed room for NixOS Testing? | 16:14:42 |
 K900 ⚡️ | Is this room broken? | 16:16:31 |
| shapr | The room title I see is "$NAME and 55 others" | 16:17:41 |
| shapr | I think it is broken. | 16:20:33 |
| shapr | Anyway, I joined to ask if there's nix utility code to run a service like minio inside a test, and then shut it down after the test is done. | 18:25:09 |
| shapr | And for bonus points, pick a random port so I can test my code in parallel with multiple versions of a compiler. | 18:25:33 |
 raitobezarius | there's a minio.nix test | 18:26:00 |
| raitobezarius | you can copy from it and make it a utility | 18:26:04 |
| raitobezarius | if you want to run multiple instances of minio, you would need to re-architecture the nixos module | 18:26:23 |
| raitobezarius | you are better off running multiple VMs | 18:26:28 |
| raitobezarius | or multiple containers inside the same VM | 18:26:31 |
| raitobezarius | and proxying them in the test | 18:26:34 |
| shapr | thank you! | 18:28:33 |
| shapr | Where do I find the minio test? I thought it would be in the same module with the package? | 18:29:43 |

| brunzefb | Which channel/room would be appropriate to ask a support question? Running into a python dependency error with awscli2 package. | 23:24:23 |
| brunzefb | running nix-shell --packages awscli2 | 23:25:47 |

| l0b0 | * The package is broken, unfortunately. But you should be able to use an older version. | 00:20:00 |
| brunzefb | Thanks -- got it to work with
nix-shell -p awscli2 -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/976fa3369d722e76f37c77493d99829540d43845.tar.gz | 02:08:22 |
| brunzefb | for version 2.13.7. I would have thought the reference would have been just awscli2@2.13.7 | 02:09:35 |
| brunzefb | still not 100% sure how to use this in a .nix file | 02:17:49 |
| l0b0 | In reply to @brunzefb:matrix.org
for version 2.13.7. I would have thought the reference would have been just awscli2@2.13.7 Nix uses cryptographic hashes as immutable, safe references to build outputs like packages. For example, there could be several nixpkgs changes applied to awscli2 version 2.13.7. By using hashes these can be referenced uniquely and unambiguously. | 02:18:51 |
| brunzefb | makes sense. | 02:19:10 |
| brunzefb | pkgs = import (builtins.fetchTarball {
url = "https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/976fa3369d722e76f37c77493d99829540d43845.tar.gz";
}) {};
myPkg = pkgs.awscli2;```
