In order to access protected or private repositories. Using the target
repository URL along with the merge-request ref instead of the source
repository url and branch is necessary to avoid running into issues if
the source repository is not actually accessible to the user Hydra is
authenticating as.
Thanks Alexei Robyn for this patch.
The PathInput input for local paths was previously enhanced to allow
URLs for which it would use a nix-prefetch-url operation. This change
updates the prompt for the declarative input type to indicate this
capability.
This is a good way to make Hydra hang. (E.g. we had a deletion of
nixos:gcc-7 running for > 12 hours and blocking UPDATE statements from
hydra-queue-runner.) Generally it's better to just disable/hide an old
jobset anyway.
Frequently users want Hydra access just to restart jobs. However,
prior to this commit the only way to grant that access was by giving
them full Admin access which isn't necessarily what we want to do.
By having a restart-jobs role, we can grant this privilege to users
who are known to the community and want to help, but aren't long-time
members.
I haven't tested this commit, but it looks good to me...
This makes downloading/viewing build results work with binary cache
stores. For good performance, this should be used in conjunction with
ca580bec35,
i.e. you should set store_uri to something like
s3://my-cache?local-nar-cache=/tmp/nar-cache
to cache NARs between requests.
This plugin will post to the build status system in BitBucket. In order
to use it you need to add to ExtraConfig
<bitbucket>
username = bitbucket_username
password = bitbucket_password
</bitbucket>
You can use an application password https://blog.bitbucket.org/2016/06/06/app-passwords-bitbucket-cloud/
This can be used with declarative projects to build PRs.
The github_authorization section should contain verbatim Authorization header contents keyed by repo owner for private repos
1. From the hydra configuration file.
The configuration is loaded from the "git-input" block.
Currently only the "timeout" variable is been looked up in the file.
<git-input>
# general timeout
timeout = 400
<input-name>
# specific timeout for a particular input name
timeout = 400
</input-name>
# use quotes when the input name has spaces
<"foot with spaces">
# specific timeout for a particular input name
timeout = 400
</"foo with spaces">
</git-input>
2. As an argument in the input value after the repo url and branch (and after the deepClone if is defined)
"timeout=<value>"
The preference on which value is used:
1. input value
2. Block with the name of the input in the <git-input> block
3. "timeout" inside the <git-input> block
4. Default value of 600 seconds. (original hard-coded value)
The code is generalized for more values to be configured, it might be too much
for a single value on a single plugin.
* The "Jobset" page now shows when evaluations are in progress (rather
than just pending).
* Restored the ability to do a single evaluation from the command line
by doing "hydra-evaluator <project> <jobset>".
* Fix some consistency issues between jobset status in PostgreSQL and
in hydra-evaluator. In particular, "lastCheckedTime" was never
updated internally.
Setting
xxx-jobset-repeats = patchelf:master:2
will cause Hydra to perform every build step in the specified jobset 2
additional times (i.e. 3 times in total). Non-determinism is not fatal
unless the derivation has the attribute "isDeterministic = true"; we
just note the lack of determinism in the Hydra database. This will
allow us to get stats about the (lack of) reproducibility of all of
Nixpkgs.
Without this, if (failed or aborted) derivations have been
garbage-collected, there is no way to restart them, which is very
annoying. Now we set a forceEval flag in the jobset to cause it to be
re-evaluated even if none of the inputs have changed.
Some Hydra API requests were vulnerable to XSRF attacks, e.g. you
could have a form on another website using http://hydra/logout as the
form action. So we now require POST requests to come from the same
origin.

Dashboards can now be marked as publically visible in the user
preferences. The dashboard URL has changed from /user/<name>/dashboard
to /dashboard/<name> because /user/<name> requires being logged in as
<name> or as an admin.
This allows fully declarative project specifications. This is best
illustrated by example:
* I create a new project, setting the declarative spec file to
"spec.json" and the declarative input to a git repo pointing
at git://github.com/shlevy/declarative-hydra-example.git
* hydra creates a special ".jobsets" jobset alongside the project
* Just before evaluating the ".jobsets" jobset, hydra fetches
declarative-hydra-example.git, reads spec.json as a jobset spec,
and updates the jobset's configuration accordingly:
{
"enabled": 1,
"hidden": false,
"description": "Jobsets",
"nixexprinput": "src",
"nixexprpath": "default.nix",
"checkinterval": 300,
"schedulingshares": 100,
"enableemail": false,
"emailoverride": "",
"keepnr": 3,
"inputs": {
"src": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/shlevy/declarative-hydra-example.git", "emailresponsible": false },
"nixpkgs": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git release-16.03", "emailresponsible": false }
}
}
* When the "jobsets" job of the ".jobsets" jobset completes, hydra
reads its output as a JSON representation of a dictionary of
jobset specs and creates a jobset named "master" configured
accordingly (In this example, this is the same configuration as
.jobsets itself, except using release.nix instead of default.nix):
{
"enabled": 1,
"hidden": false,
"description": "js",
"nixexprinput": "src",
"nixexprpath": "release.nix",
"checkinterval": 300,
"schedulingshares": 100,
"enableemail": false,
"emailoverride": "",
"keepnr": 3,
"inputs": {
"src": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/shlevy/declarative-hydra-example.git", "emailresponsible": false },
"nixpkgs": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git release-16.03", "emailresponsible": false }
}
}
Mutliple <githubstatus> sections are possible:
* jobs: regexp for jobs to match
* inputs: the input which corresponds to the github repo/rev whose
status we want to report. Can be repeated
* authorization: Verbatim contents of the Authorization header. See
https://developer.github.com/v3/#authentication.
Otherwise, the browser may mix up HTML and JSON responses if it has
requested both. For example, hitting the back button to return to a
job metric page will show a JSON response, because that was the last
thing the browser fetched for that URL.
This requires Catalyst::Action::Rest >= 1.20.
The previous query
select count(*) from builds b left join buildsteps s on s.build = b.id where busy = 1 and finished = 0
is suddenly taking several minutes. Probably PostgreSQL decided to use
a suboptimal query plan.
The old page didn't scale very well if you have 150K builds in the
queue, in fact it tended to make browsers hang. The new one just
shows, for each jobset, the number of queued builds. The actual builds
can be seen by going to the corresponding jobset page and looking at
the evals.
Respects <slack> blocks in the hydra config, with attributes:
* jobs: a regexp matching the job name (in the format project:jobset:job)
* url: The URL to a slack incoming webhook
* force: If true, always send messages. Otherwise, only when the build status changes
Multiple <slack> blocks are allowed
The queue runner no longer uses this field, and it doesn't provide
very interesting historical data (mostly SSH failures), but it takes
up a lot of space. Also, it contained some bad UTF-8 which was
preventing an upgrade to Postgres 9.5, so a good occasion to get rid
of it.
The required configuration in hydra.conf:
enable_google_login = 1
google_client_id = 238429sdjkds....apps.googleusercontent.com
and optionally persona_allowed_domains to restrict to one or more
domains.
This is necessary given the current size of the Nixpkgs/NixOS
jobsets. Once we have a Nix store + Postgres on SSD, we can reduce
this again.
Should really make this configurable...
The uid split a while back caused the web interface to create GC roots
in /nix/var/nix/gcroots/per-user/hydra-www, where they wouldn't be
purged by hydra-update-gc-roots. Thus restarted builds would
accumulate forever. The fix is to keep the roots in a shared directory
with gid=hydra.
Regression introduced by 1fdc258de0.
The commit introduced a channel/custom PathPart which uses the new
custom channel expressions, but I forgot to remove CaptureArgs, so the
URL really is channel/latest/ignored-value.

This removes the "busy", "locker" and "logfile" columns, which are no
longer used by the queue runner. The "Running builds" page now only
shows builds that have an active build step.
There is still a tiny window between the calls to nix-prefetch-* and
addTempRoot. This could be eliminated by adding a "-o" option to
nix-prefetch-*, or by not using those scripts at all (and use
addToStore directly).
So this is the final part which is needed in order to be able to deliver
custom channels, everything else is now just polishing.
We do this by simply redirecting to the build product download URL and
we use binary_cache_url the same way as in NixChannel.pm.

We should now get an overview and help text on how to add a particular
channel and also a bit of information about the builds that are required
for a channel to get upgraded.
Right now we only select the latest successful build in the latest
successful evaluation, so if someone wants to have more information about
which channel has failed, (s)he still has to look at the "Channels" tab
of the jobset.
We can make this more fancy at some later point if this is really
needed, because right now we're only interested in the latest build,
because it's the only thing necessary to deliver the channel contents.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
We now have a searchBuildsAndEvalsForJobset, which creates such a
mapping for us, so we don't need to duplicate code in jobs_tab and
channels_tab.
Also, we're going to use this for the overview of a particular channel
as well, so it makes sense to put it in CatalystUtils instead of
directly in Jobset.pm.
Instead of eval->jobs, it's now eval->builds, because it's really an
aggregate over the builds schema, rather than the job schema.

We only allow channel/latest anyway, so it really doesn't make sense to
explicitly specify this in the PathPart and provide other dispatcher
once we have more than just "latest", which greatly simplifies the
dispatch tree.

We now have a column for that, so no need for counting rows which was a
bit inefficient anyway, because we only would have needed the first row
in the result.

Now that we have our dedicated "Channels" tab, there is no need anymore
to show redundant information.

We now no longer need that additional join of the build outputs and can
solely use the isChannel column of the Builds table to determine whether
it's a channel build.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
This is to properly separate channels from regular jobs and also make
sure that we can always iterate on them, no matter whether the build has
failed. The reason why we were not able to do this until now was because
we were iterating on the build products, and whenever some constituent
of a channel job has failed, we didn't get a build output.
So whenever there is a meta.isHydraChannel, we can now properly
distinguish it from the other jobs.
I still don't have any clue, why "make -C src/sql update-dbix" without
*any* modifications tries to create additional schema definitions. But
I've checked the md5sums of the existing schema definitions and they
don't seem to match, so it seems that they already have been tampered
with.

Now we can provide different channel expressions for one particular
channel build. Not sure yet how this would be useful, but I found it
more appropriate to use a type instead of a subtype of "file".
This should get us consistent with the provious commit.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
This is to get a bit more consistency among channel builds but doesn't
do a radical change on the display. Ideally we may want to have a
channel overview with all the constituents and a small help showing how
the user can add the channel.
Unfortunately, this also introduces an inconsistency: We previously used
the *subtype* "channel", but now we're expecting "channel" as the type
of the product, so we need to change this for the channels overview as
well.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
It's very similar to "jobs" and the code is pretty much the same, except
that we don't do filtering on it. At least it doesn't waste space for a
filter option when there are usually WAY less channel jobs than ordinary
jobs.

Builds can now emit metrics that Hydra will store in its database and
render as time series via flot charts. Typical applications are to
keep track of performance indicators, coverage percentages, artifact
sizes, and so on.
For example, a coverage build can emit the coverage percentage as
follows:
echo "lineCoverage $pct %" > $out/nix-support/hydra-metrics
Graphs of all metrics for a job can be seen at
http://.../job/<project>/<jobset>/<job>#tabs-charts
Specific metrics are also visible at
http://.../job/<project>/<jobset>/<job>/metric/<metric>
The latter URL also allows getting the data in JSON format (e.g. via
"curl -H 'Accept: application/json'").
Without an index on (machine, stoptime desc), this requires a
sequential scan. And adding a whole index for this seems
overkill. (Possibly the queue runner could maintain this info more
efficiently.)
Hydra-queue-runner now no longer polls the queue periodically, but
instead sleeps until it receives a notification from PostgreSQL about
a change to the queue (build added, build cancelled or build
restarted).
Also, for the "build added" case, we now only check for builds with an
ID greater than the previous greatest ID. This is much more efficient
if the queue is large.
This removes the need for Nix's build-remote.pl.
Build logs are now written to $HYDRA_DATA/build-logs because
hydra-queue-runner doesn't have write permission to /nix/var/log.
Scheduling is mostly based on jobset shares these days. So showing and
sorting by priority just wastes space and gives the incorrect
impression that Hydra executes builds in the order shown on the queue
page.
These give warnings in Perl >= 5.18:
