conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
mostly no rendering changes. some lists (like simplelist) don't have an
exact translation to markdown, so we use a comma-separated list of
literals instead.
using regular strings works well for docbook because docbook is not as
whitespace-sensitive as markdown. markdown would render all of these as
code blocks when given the chance.
a lot of markdown syntax has already snuck into option docs, many of it
predating the intent to migrate to markdown. we don't convert all of it
here, just that which is accompanied by docbook tags as well. the rest
can be converted by simply adding the mdDoc marker.
Enable keter module
Keter is an apploader which:
1. has the old app running on a port.
2. loads a new one, and wait for that to complete
3. switches the old with the new one once the new one finished loading.
It supports more functionality but this use case
is the primary one being used by supercede.
Adds keter as a module to nixos.
Currently keter is unusable with nix,
because it relies on bundeling of a tar and uploading that to a specific folder.
These expressions automate these devops tasks,
with especially nixops in mind.
This will work with versions above 1.8
The test seems to work.
This uses a new version of keter which has good
support for status code on error pages.
We're using this config at production at supercede
so it should be fine.
Squash log:
==========
mention keter in changelog
Update generated release notes
Always restart keter on failure
This is a little bit of extra stability in case keter crashes.
Which can happen under extreme conditions (DoS attacks).

now nix-doc-munge will not introduce whitespace changes when it replaces
manpage references with the MD equivalent.
no change to the manpage, changes to the HTML manual are whitespace only.
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
we can't embed syntactic annotations of this kind in markdown code
blocks without yet another extension. replaceable is rare enough to make
this not much worth it, so we'll go with «thing» instead. the module
system already uses this format for its placeholder names in attrsOf
paths.
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
When using the example without the square brackets, nginx fails to start:
```
nginx-pre-start: nginx: [emerg] invalid port in "::1:80" of the "listen" directive in /nix/store/xyz-nginx.conf:29
nginx-pre-start: nginx: configuration file /nix/store/xyz-nginx.conf test failed
```
This patch follows an upstream commit[1].
Before this patch, if acme module is used, caddy will still use an old
cert even a new one is available. The cause is that without --force
flag, caddy will not reload an unchanged config.
Refer to that commit[1] message for more information.
[1]: 979e498d6d
Before this patch, the caddy process has acme in its supplementary
group because of the SupplementaryGroups in its service config, which
may give it more permission than needed, is inconsistent with the
documentation of services.caddy.virtualHosts.<name>.useACMEHost and is
redundant since we have mkCertOwnershipAssertion in assertions.
This patch fixes these problems by defaulting the group of needed
certs to caddy, which is what other web servers like nginx do and
deleting SupplementaryGroups config.
using freeform is the new standard way of using modules and should replace
extraConfig.
In particular, this will allow us to place a condition on mails
Without this fix, evaluating a NixOS configuration with Tomcat enabled and the
default settings results in the following evaluation error:
Failed assertions:
- users.users.tomcat.group is unset. This used to default to
nogroup, but this is unsafe. For example you can create a group
for this user with:
users.users.tomcat.group = "tomcat";
users.groups.tomcat = {};
