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.
This reverts commit 949e5865c6. This
makes release.nix harder to read/maintain IMHO. There already is a Nix
expression for Hydra in Nixpkgs that can be used for this purpose.
Documents all the endpoints that can be used to retrieve data from
the API without authenticating.
Authentication and manipulating data with the API is not documented.
Adding a 96-core aarch64 build machine to the build farm caused the
potential number of database connections to increase a lot, so we
started hitting the Postgres connection limit.
* 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.
Builds can now specify the attribute "isDeterministic = true" to tell
Hydra to build with build-repeat > 0. If there is a mismatch between
rounds, the step / build fails with a suitable status.
Maybe this should be a meta attribute, but that makes it invisible to
hydra-queue-runner, and it seems reasonable to make a claim of
mandatory determinism part of the derivation (since e.g. enabling this
flag should trigger a rebuild).
