 Marius | Hello. I would like to use Hydra for PR preview on a (self-hosted) GitLab instance that involve running, for each MR:
- Compiling the site (with a Nix flake)
- Creating a pinned link to that output in a folder with one link per built derivation, that will be served by NGINX (with whatever security is needed to avoid path traversal)
- Post a link to that URL back in GitLab somehow
I’ve seen there’s some GitLab support in Hydra, but the documentation is rather sparse. Would there be an example repo or configuration?
| 07:30:57 |
 K900 | Does it really need to be Hydra | 07:37:35 |
| K900 | This feels like something you can do with just running Nix in a container | 07:37:45 |
| K900 | And Gitlab Pages | 07:37:48 |
| Marius | That mean I’ll have to figure out how those works. But I’ll take a look.
(also, I found that nixos-mailserver at least show how to perform task 1: https://gitlab.com/nix17/nixos-mailserver) | 07:41:13 |
| Marius | Redacted or Malformed Event | 07:49:06 |
| Marius | * Meh, it seems GitLab pages does not have clean per-pr page hosting. Like GitHub. Where I used an ugly, probably not secure enought, hack. | 07:49:25 |
| K900 | Honestly, Hydra is just not the right tool for this | 07:51:24 |
| Marius | Actually, it appears the Hydra doc is deployed via Hydra, which can serve build artifact (I actually think it could work. I’ll go experiment with that and share my success of failure) | 08:11:26 |
| K900 | I would really not recommend spending much time on this approach | 08:14:03 |
| K900 | Hydra is a NixOS-sized solution for a NixOS-sized problem | 08:14:10 |

 vcunat | These years we're getting a little big for the hydra's design, but that's another matter. | 08:31:08 |

| dramforever | does hydra have support for routing builds by pname or something? trying to figure out if it's possible to route builds to machines without using requiredSystemFeatures which affects the hash | 01:01:00 |
| vcunat | I don't expect it has such a feature. | 09:13:46 |
| dramforever | well, thanks for the help anyway | 10:00:14 |

 @rick:matrix.ciphernetics.nl | I proposed a patch for hydra to improve the test suite by reducing test flakiness: https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/1399 | 15:24:41 |
