 Amanda (she/her) | * And you can't do any hostname schenanagins because nix explicitally checks for localhost to bypass the nix store lock loop | 00:55:39 |
 @grahamc:nixos.org | right, and even more specifically it is keyed based on the sshName which is the hostname, minus users | 00:57:23 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | ie: no trick like adding i686@localhost and x86_64@localhost entries | 00:57:42 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | newMachines[machine->sshName] = machine;
| 00:58:34 |
| Amanda (she/her) | WEll, I'll leave this mess as a future-amanda problem, my spoons are gone, so I'll not really be able to motivate enough to do anything further. Thanks for the help so far, grahamc (he/him) -- guess I'll spend tomorrow meownign replacing the fan so that it's safe to build on the machine again | 00:59:15 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | it is unfortunate this is tricky | 00:59:41 |
| Amanda (she/her) | Apparently nixbuild.net is planning on making it so that fixed-derevation builds are possible to use network somehow, but it's still in the planning phase. Maybe this could light a fire under that | 01:00:29 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | cool | 01:00:41 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | they've got a great service | 01:00:46 |
 mei 🌒& | why not 127.0.0.{2,3}? | 01:00:59 |
| Amanda (she/her) | ckie (they/them): nix holds a lock on the store. If you access it remotely, from the same machine, that lock gets double-locked, resulting in a hang | 01:01:34 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | bool isLocalhost()
{
return sshName == "localhost";
}
| 01:01:34 |
| mei 🌒& | ouch.. at least that sounds pretty easy to patch! | 01:01:52 |
| Amanda (she/her) | nic explicitally checks that isLocalhost to bypass the double-lock problem | 01:02:07 |

| mei 🌒& | you really are in a tight spot then | 01:02:47 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | yeah, you could patch hydra without much trouble =) | 01:02:54 |
| mei 🌒& | i'm not sure if that's sarcasm | 01:03:43 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | not sarcasm! | 01:03:51 |
| mei 🌒& | ah! the endless ambiguity between the offical hydra instance and hydra itself | 01:04:24 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | as far as I'm concerned, this channel is exclusively about the software Hydra, and not any specific deployment of Hydra | 01:04:49 |
| mei 🌒& | i didn't even notice what channel i was chatting in until the ambiguity arose | 01:05:21 |
| mei 🌒& | :P | 01:05:50 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | :) | 01:06:39 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | here, I think you can make that isLocalhost function this:
if (sshName.size() < 9) {
return false;
}
return (sshName.substr(sshName.size() - 9) == "localhost");
| 01:09:30 |

then use "i686.localhost" and "x86.localhost"

|  @sjanssen:matrix.org joined the room. | 20:28:41 |
| @sjanssen:matrix.org | is there a current working example of "Generated, Declarative Projects"? https://hydra.nixos.org/build/165366167/download/1/hydra/plugins/declarative-projects.html#generated-declarative-projects | 20:33:56 |
| @sjanssen:matrix.org | this is what I'm trying: https://gist.github.com/spencerjanssen/786cc8c2b047faf92767917e0fb2dcc6 | 20:47:47 |
