Previously, the `nix_read_pwd` function was only used for reading the
`dbpassFile`, however it has since been refactored to handle reading
other secret files too. This fixes the message of the exception that is
thrown in the case that the file is not present so that it no longer
refers specifically to the `dbpass` file.
Removes the submodule in favour of using an attrset.
Also:
- Makes better use of nix's laziness in config expansion.
- Makes use of `boolToString` where applicable.
We should discourage users from adding secrets in a way that allows for
them to end up in the globally readable `/nix/store`. Users should use
the `objectstore.s3.secretFile` option instead.
This allows to declaratively configure an S3 class object storage as the
primary storage for the nextcloud service. Previously, this could only
be achieved by manually editing the `config.php`.
I've started testing this today with my own digitalocean nextcloud
instance, which now points to my digitalocean S3-compatible "Space" and
all appears to be working smoothly.
My motivation for this change is my recent discovery of how much cheaper
some S3-compatible object storage options are compared to digitalocean's
"Volume" options.
Implementation follows the "Simple Storage Service" instructions here:
https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_files/primary_storage.html
I have neglected to implement a submodule for the OpenStack Swift
object storage as I don't personally have a use case for it or a method
to test it, however the new `nextcloud.objectstore.s3` submodule should
act as a useful guide for anyone who does wish to implement it.
The MariaDB version 10.6 doesn't seem supported with current Nextcloud
versions and the test fails with the following error[1]:
nextcloud # [ 14.950034] nextcloud-setup-start[1001]: Error while trying to initialise the database: An exception occurred while executing a query: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 4047 InnoDB refuses to write tables with ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED or KEY_BLOCK_SIZE.
According to a support-thread in upstream's Discourse[2] this is because
of a missing support so far.
Considering that we haven't received any bugreports so far - even though
the issue already exists on master - and the workaround[3] appears to
work fine, an evaluation warning for administrators should be
sufficient.

When restoring a backup, discourse decompresses the backup archive in
the /share/discourse/tmp dir. Before this change, it is linked to /run
which is typically backed by memory, so the backup will fail to
restore if you do not have enough memory on your system to contain the
backup. This has already happened to me on two small forums.
This moves tmp to the StateDirectory /var/lib/discourse/tmp which is
typically backed by disk.
The `services.mastodon` module currently hardcodes sidekiq's concurrency
to 25, but doesn't set a DB pool size, which defaults to 5 or the number
of configured web threads.
(This behaviour is very strange, and arguably a mastodon bug.)
This also makes sidekiq's concurrency configurable, because 25 is a tad
high for the hardware I'm running it on.
This error occurs if `nextcloud-occ maintenance:install` fails and the
`upgrade` command is attempted to be executed afterwards.
Due to the nature of the installer we can't do much about it, so I guess
it makes sense to add some notes about it. The other notes in the
`Pitfalls`-section are semantically a list of different topics, so I
changed that accordingly now.
Closes#111175
This doesn't work anymore and thus breaks the installation leaving a
broken `/var/lib/nextcloud`.
It isn't a big deal since we set this value in the override config
before, so the correct table-prefix is still used. In order to confirm
that, I decided to add a custom prefix to the basic test.
Let the update.py script handle the initial, repetitive task of
packaging new plugins. With this in place, the plugin only needs to be
added to the list in `update-plugins` and most of the work will be
done automatically when the script is run. Metadata still needs to be
filled in manually and some packages may of course require additional
work/patching.
