 asymmetric | In reply to @ryantm:matrix.org
There's no API. The bot is hosted by a nix-community server. I donate to them to help pay for it. have you already thought about the problem of how to make it easy for maintainers to get notified of build issues with their packages?
what comes to mind is a thing where i can request the bot to send a message to the contact i have in maintainer-list.nix, proving that i control it; and then, notify me when a package i maintain breaks (via the same channel, so email/matrix).
does this seem useful and doable in the current codebase? i know zero haskell lol

| asymmetric | or perhaps we could file issues in a separate repo and tag maintainers there, with the option to opt out? or is that too aggressive/spammy? | 08:23:40 |

| Diogo Correia | Hey
Is it just me or is https://nixpkgs-update-logs.nix-community.org down? | 08:48:08 |
| Diogo Correia | I was trying to get the logs for a package I'm maintaining because I think it's not being updated and wanna check why | 08:49:08 |
 zowoq | It's down. https://github.com/nix-community/infra/issues/1362. | 09:29:00 |

| asymmetric | hey, i'm planning on building a simple external service that:
- exposes a matrix bot for people to subscribe to nixpkgs-update build failures for a package
- periodically (and infrequently, e.g. once a day) parses new logs from https://nixpkgs-update-logs.nix-community.org/
- if there are new errors for a package, notifies people who have subscribed
i think this is the best way to validate the idea, and maybe one day it can be better integrated/upstreamed into nixpkgs-update, if need be

| asymmetric | i'll be using the user agent "asymmetric", in case you want to track usage | 12:19:55 |
| Philip Taron (UTC-8) | I'm quite interested. Thanks asymmetric. Please feel free to use my handle as an assigned tester. | 16:17:19 |
 Mindavi | I'm interested in that too | 17:02:54 |
