 Sandro | When I have a package I want to test on hydra and create one gcroot for every step in between so that build progress gets cached even when the package fails, how would I do that? | 12:14:35 |
 das_j | I don't think that'S supported | 12:17:21 |
| Sandro | Anyone knows if any other CI solution has something like that? | 12:29:11 |
| Sandro | I mean I could adopt releases-small or so and plot all my packages into that 🤔 | 12:29:31 |
 toonn | I'm not sure if there is anything. But splitting a single derivation into multiple would work everywhere. I'm not entirely sure why Nixpkgs errs on the side of more monolithic derivations. | 12:32:29 |
 cransom | if you were super big on always adding gcroots, you could add a postbuildhook that would add a root for every build you had.
postBuildHook = pkgs.writeScript "nix-copy-paths" ''
export IFS=' '
mkdir -p /nix/var/nix/gcroots/nixcache
for path in $OUT_PATHS; do
nix-store --add-root /nix/var/nix/gcroots/nixcache/$(basename $path) -r $path
done
'';

| cransom | that's a nix postbuildhook, apart from hydra. | 15:48:15 |

| Sandro | I would need to clean them up manually, right? | 01:48:04 |

| hacker1024 | Hi all, I am trying to make a declarative project. I am trying to wrap my head around the declInput argument. Why do so many projects cat it? | 10:57:41 |

Hi all, I am trying to make a declarative project. I am trying to wrap my head around the declInput argument. Why do so many projects cat it? Depends on what your declInput is. For me it's usually a git repo so it's not cat-table | 06:58:58 |
| das_j | declInput is what you configure in the "Declarative input type" in the project settings | 06:59:27 |
| hacker1024 | Thanks. But what is the purpose of printing it at build time? Take [this one](https://github.com/dhess/pinpon/tree/f4f984f3a45e4239914c912f489fd37110b65d45/nix/jobsets), for example - the input in spec.json is just the repository. | 07:25:21 |

| das_j | Btw if you try hard enough, you don't even need nixpkgs in your declarative spec: https://git.helsinki.tools/helsinki-systems/hydra-nixos/-/blob/master/default.nix#L44 | 08:18:02 |
| das_j | * Btw if you try hard enough, you don't even need nixpkgs in your declarative spec: https://git.helsinki.tools/helsinki-systems/hydra-nixos/-/blob/master/default.nix#L44 - makes it nicer imo because you don't have to fetch/update nixpkgs every time | 08:18:34 |
| hacker1024 | Thanks, that's pretty cool. Another question:
Does Hydra have a way to limit all access to logged in users, or do I need to set up a reverse proxy with authentication? In particular I do not want anyone to be able to view output hashes or access our binary cache. | 23:17:17 |
