 Ramses π΅πΈ | Is this better? https://gist.github.com/r-vdp/285482dfec28459e0e84f478582b8cca | 15:06:18 |
| Ramses π΅πΈ | Just FYI, the original command that raito shared, used nix-build and not nix build, the latter needs ^out, the former doesn't | 15:28:05 |
 Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Yeah, I was going off the issue and that stood out to me since the exit 0 was zero and no actual build happened. | 15:39:51 |
| Ramses π΅πΈ | Yeah, indeed, because I dropped the dash... I also realised just after pasting the output | 15:44:49 |

 raitobezarius | Ramses π΅πΈ fixes were merged | 18:17:11 |
| raitobezarius | please confirm us this went away | 18:17:14 |
| raitobezarius | thank you for flying with Lix today | 18:17:26 |
| Ramses π΅πΈ | Great, I'll try it out later tonight! | 19:40:14 |

| raitobezarius | @channel Maintenance window announcements for Lix CI: https://zulip.lix.systems/#narrow/channel/7-Infra/topic/RFC.3A.20merging.20Lix.20Buildkite.20into.20AFNix.20Buildkite/near/6157
TLDR: expect some changes deployed today at midnight CEST, more changes deployed tomorrow at 11:30 CEST.
User impact: short downtime of minutes causing failure or waiting states in the CI. | 18:48:42 |
|  Lisanna joined the room. | 19:50:06 |
| Lisanna | Just dropping a note that I've had to add a note to my project's README explaining that it's not possible to set nix.settings.build-hook on NixOS when using Lix. The release notes deprecating the setting (which causes nix.conf validation to fail) said "if this does affect you, we'd like to hear from you!", so yeah, just letting you know! My project is still very new, and there are no confirmed users of it, but there are several people considering using it.The project is https://github.com/lisanna-dettwyler/nix-scheduler-hook | 19:56:11 |
| raitobezarius | Yep, we have been following your project, super interesting | 20:04:47 |
| raitobezarius | But we would like to make it possible via proper RPC wires than taking over the entire build-hook :D | 20:05:07 |
| raitobezarius | (we being the Lix core team) | 20:05:50 |
| Lisanna | How are you envisioning that working? Will there be a different nix.conf setting for hooks that speak the RPC protocol? | 20:06:35 |
| raitobezarius | If you are familiar with how Snix works, we would fission the whole build subsystem into its own RPC boundary, so someone could tap into a library to spawn a build RPC component and bring their own scheduler logic | 20:07:18 |
| raitobezarius | It's already kinda possible to do something akin that by proxying Nix daemon protocol | 20:07:34 |
| raitobezarius | * It's already kinda possible to do something akin to that by proxying Nix daemon protocol | 20:07:43 |
| raitobezarius | (we would also use that work to enable better out-of-the-box scheduler logic, remote building and more) | 20:08:04 |
| raitobezarius | The remote building hook has been already subject to RPC-ification with Cap'n'Proto, so we are working towards slowly confirming our expectations for this architecture | 20:08:40 |
| Lisanna | I will take a look at the Snix implementation, I have not looked at it at all yet | 20:09:18 |
