This is currently done by a separate program that periodically
calls "hydra-queue-runner --status". Eventually, I'll do this
in the queue runner directly.
Fixes#220.
Fixes errors like:
Caught exception in engine "Wide character in syswrite at /nix/store/498lwsrn5kkdh1q8kn3vcpd3457w6m7a-hydra-perl-deps/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.3/Starman/Server.pm line 547."
Note that these errors didn't happen if the database encoding was set
to SQL_ASCII (which was the case for hydra.nixos.org, explaining why
it didn't get these errors). However, now the encoding must be
UTF8. To change it, do:
update pg_database set encoding = pg_char_to_encoding('UTF8') where datname = 'hydra';
In your hydra config, you can add an arbitrary number of <s3config>
sections, with the following options:
* name (required): Bucket name
* jobs (required): A regex to match job names (in project:jobset:job
format) that should be backed up to this bucket
* compression_type: bzip2 (default), xz, or none
* prefix: String to prepend to all hydra-created s3 keys (if this is
meant to represent a directory, you should include the trailing slash,
e.g. "cache/"). Default "".
After each build with an output (i.e. successful or failed-with-output
builds), the output path and its closure are uploaded to the bucket as
.nar files, with corresponding .narinfos to enable use as a binary
cache.
This plugin requires that s3 credentials be available. It uses
Net::Amazon::S3, which as of this commit the nixpkgs version can
retrieve s3 credentials from the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables, or from ec2 instance
metadata when using an IAM role.
This commit also adds a hydra-s3-backup-collect-garbage program, which
uses hydra's gc roots directory to determine which paths are live, and
then deletes all files except nix-cache-info and any .nar or .narinfo
files corresponding to live paths. hydra-s3-backup-collect-garbage
respects the prefix configuration option, so it won't delete anything
outside of the hierarchy you give it, and it has the same credential
requirements as the plugin. Probably a timer unit running the garbage
collection periodically should be added to hydra-module.nix
Note that two of the added tests fail, due to a bug in the interaction
between Net::Amazon::S3 and fake-s3. Those behaviors work against real
s3 though, so I'm committing this even with the broken tests.

We had Postgres barfing with this error:
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_dbh_execute(): DBI Exception: DBD::Pg::st execute failed: ERROR: stack depth limit exceeded
because the ‘drvpath => [ @dependentDrvs ]’ in failDependents can
cause a query of unbounded size. (In this specific case there was a
failure of Bison, which has > 10000 dependent derivations.) So now we
just get all scheduled builds from the DB.
On 32-bit, Linux 3.4, and if the memory size is bigger than a certain
value, starting the stage 2 init script fails with "Exec format error"
because the 9P filesystem is returning garbage. No such problem with
Linux 3.10.

The catalyst-action-rest branch from shlevy/hydra was an exploration of
using Catalyst::Action::REST to create a JSON API for hydra. This commit
merges in the best bits from that experiment, with the goal that further
API endpoints can be added incrementally.
In addition to migrating more endpoints, there is potential for
improvement in what's already been done:
* The web interface can be updated to use the same non-GET endpoints as
the JSON interface (using x-tunneled-method) instead of having a
separate endpoint
* The web rendering should use the $c->stash->{resource} data structure
where applicable rather than putting the same data in two places in
the stash
* Which columns to render for each endpoint is a completely debatable
question
* Hydra::Component::ToJSON should turn has_many relations that have
strings as their primary keys into objects instead of arrays

This plugin sends notification of build failure or success to a
HipChat room, if the status differs from the last build.
The plugin can be configured by adding one or more of these stanzas to
hydra.conf:
<hipchat>
jobs = (patchelf|nixops):.*:.*
room = 1234
token = 39ab2198fe...
</hipchat>
Here "jobs" is a regular expression against which the fully qualified
job name of the build is matched (so for instance
"nixops:master:tarball" will match the stanza above).
Config::Any uses Module::Pluggable to seach for plugins, so it needs
the patched Module::Pluggable in Nixpkgs (rather than the one in Perl
itself) to properly find plugins in symlink trees created by buildEnv.
