| How feasible is self-hosting a Hydra instance? Say I want to deploy to a whole bunch of RISC-V thin clients... I already know what packages I want to be compiled, so is there a way to configure Hydra to only build and serve those? Or am I fundamentally messengering something about Hydra? | 21:51:50 | |
| self hosting hydra is easy. it's probably over kill if you are only intending it to populate a binary cache though. | 23:15:35 | |

| For RISC-V? Does the main instance of Hydra compile for RISC-V? | 01:35:59 | |
| Or ARM? | 01:36:08 | |
In reply to @darkwater4213:matrix.orgIt doesn't really matter for what, it just does normal Nix remote builds | 05:11:45 | |
| hydra.n.o doesn't build RISCV because we don't have the hardware for it | 05:12:01 | |
In reply to @darkwater4213:matrix.orgWith nixpkgs or the flake it's easy to host, providing you're running nixos or don't mind running a VM with nixos. There's definitely a way to configure hydra to build a specific set of packages, that's what it's built to do. I wouldn't really say it's overkill, it's a convenient way to keep up to date with nixpkgs and building what you need from it for what platform you want | 08:37:03 | |

| i seem to be having issues with hydra not serving static files
this is from a nginx remote proxy, in the browser the page just times out | 20:30:19 | |
| hydra itself doesnt log anything, im also not running this on nixos, but the module was copied from nixos mostly | 20:32:00 | |
| i dont see why it would be failing the serve | 21:11:17 | |
| interestingly reloading the page doesnt mark them ass missing? hydra isnt closing connections properly? | 21:22:57 | |

| i also got to do something to speed up the DB because clicking on one of my systems takes 20 seconds to load, its 6.5k store paths | 21:26:28 | |

| How feasible would it be to run Hydra as a distributed system? Say I had a few dozen or maybe even a hundred or more thin clients (ARM or RISC-V or whatever). Is it theoretically possible for Hydra to be distributed among those clients (assuming they're all on the same overarching network, of course) so none of them is doing much work or for long, but the whole thing is entirely bootstrapped (reminiscent of IPFS)? And because this is distributed across an entire fleet, you can do some crazy Gentoo-level optimization... the prospect is very exciting indeed. | 08:56:09 | |
| Imagine: serverless fleet management. MDM... without a manager. | 08:56:34 | |
| What do you even mean by "distributed system"? | 08:56:41 | |
