PathInput plugin keeps a cache of path evaluations. This cache is simple, and
path is not checked more than once every N seconds, where N=30. The caching is
there to avoid expensive calls to `nix-store --add`.
This change makes the validity period configurable. The main use case is
`api-test.pl` which was implemented wrong for a while, as the invocation of
`hydra-eval-jobset` would return the previous evaluation, claiming there are no
changes. The test has been fixed to check better for a new evaluation.
Taken from `Perl::Critic`:
A common idiom in perl for dealing with possible errors is to use `eval`
followed by a check of `$@`/`$EVAL_ERROR`:
eval {
...
};
if ($EVAL_ERROR) {
...
}
There's a problem with this: the value of `$EVAL_ERROR` (`$@`) can change
between the end of the `eval` and the `if` statement. The issue are object
destructors:
package Foo;
...
sub DESTROY {
...
eval { ... };
...
}
package main;
eval {
my $foo = Foo->new();
...
};
if ($EVAL_ERROR) {
...
}
Assuming there are no other references to `$foo` created, when the
`eval` block in `main` is exited, `Foo::DESTROY()` will be invoked,
regardless of whether the `eval` finished normally or not. If the `eval`
in `main` fails, but the `eval` in `Foo::DESTROY()` succeeds, then
`$EVAL_ERROR` will be empty by the time that the `if` is executed.
Additional issues arise if you depend upon the exact contents of
`$EVAL_ERROR` and both `eval`s fail, because the messages from both will
be concatenated.
Even if there isn't an `eval` directly in the `DESTROY()` method code,
it may invoke code that does use `eval` or otherwise affects
`$EVAL_ERROR`.
The solution is to ensure that, upon normal exit, an `eval` returns a
true value and to test that value:
# Constructors are no problem.
my $object = eval { Class->new() };
# To cover the possiblity that an operation may correctly return a
# false value, end the block with "1":
if ( eval { something(); 1 } ) {
...
}
eval {
...
1;
}
or do {
# Error handling here
};
Unfortunately, you can't use the `defined` function to test the result;
`eval` returns an empty string on failure.
Various modules have been written to take some of the pain out of
properly localizing and checking `$@`/`$EVAL_ERROR`. For example:
use Try::Tiny;
try {
...
} catch {
# Error handling here;
# The exception is in $_/$ARG, not $@/$EVAL_ERROR.
}; # Note semicolon.
"But we don't use DESTROY() anywhere in our code!" you say. That may be
the case, but do any of the third-party modules you use have them? What
about any you may use in the future or updated versions of the ones you
already use?
The current implementation will pass all values to `create_or_update` method. The
missing values will end up as `undef` (or `NULL`) when assigned to `%update`.
Thus, for columns that are NOT NULL, when, for example, flakes are not used,
will result in a horrible:
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_dbh_execute(): DBI Exception: DBD::Pg::st execute failed:
ERROR: null value in column "type" violates not-null constraint

This change just omits adding such values to `%update`, which results in
PostgreSQL assigning the default values.
The previous code converted option values to ints when the value
contained a digit somewhere. This is too eager since it also converts
strings like `release-0.2` to an int which should not happen.
We now only convert to int when the value is an integer.
This plugin is a counterpart to GithubPulls plugin. Instead of fetching pull
requests, it will fetch all references (branches and tags) that start with a
particular prefix.
The plugin is a copy of GithubPulls plugin with appropriate changes to call the
right API and parse the config matching the need.
To quote the function's comment:
Awful hack to handle timeouts in SQLite: just retry the transaction.
DBD::SQLite *has* a 30 second retry window, but apparently it
doesn't work.
Since SQLite is now dropped entirely, this wrapper can be removed
completely.
SQLite isn't properly supported by Hydra for a few years now[1], but
Hydra still depends on it. Apart from a slightly bigger closure this can
cause confusion by users since Hydra picks up SQLite rather than
PostgreSQL by default if HYDRA_DBI isn't configured properly[2]

Declarative jobsets were broken by the Nix update, causing
nix cat-file to break silently.
This commit restores declarative jobsets, based on top of a commit
making it easier to see what broke.
In the past, jobsets which are automatically evaluated are evaluated
regularly, on a schedule. This schedule means a new evaluation is
created every checkInterval seconds (assuming something changed.)
This model works well for architectures where our build farm can
easily keep up with demand.
This commit adds a new type of evaluation, called ONE_AT_A_TIME, which
only schedules a new evaluation if the previous evaluation of the
jobset has no unfinished builds.
This model of evaluation lets us have 'low-tier' architectures.
For example, we could now have a jobset for ARMv7l builds, where
the buildfarm only has a single, underpowered ARMv7l builder.
Configuring that jobset as ONE_AT_A_TIME will create an evaluation
and then won't schedule another evaluation until every job of
the existing evaluation is complete.
This way, the cache will have a complete collection of pre-built
software for some commits, but the underpowered architecture will
never become backlogged in ancient revisions.
A postgresql column which is non-null and unique is treated with
the same optimisations as a primary key, so we have no need to
try and recreate the `id` as the primary key.
No read paths are impacted by this change, and the database will
automatically create an ID for each insert. Thus, no code needs to
change.
hydra.nixos.org is already running this rev, and it should be safe to
apply to everyone else. If we make changes to this migration, we'll
need to write another migration anyway.
Lowercasing is due to postgresql not having case-sensitive table names.
It always technically workde before, but those table names never
existed literally.
The switch to generating from postgresql is to handle an upcoming
addition of an auto-incrementign ID to the Jobset table. Sqlite doesn't
seem to be able to handle the table having an auto incrementing ID
field which isn't the primary key, but we can't change the primary
key trivially.
Since hydra doesn't support sqlite and hasn't for many year anyway,
it is easier to just generate from pgsql directly.
This attribute allows to know if an error occurred or not: when an
error occurs, errormsg is not an empty string. Note we can not use the
errormsg attribute because it can be arbitrarily long and is excluded
from the jobset API response.
This adds the following (pre-existing) attributes to the jobset response:
- nrtotal
- lastcheckedtime
- starttime
- checkinterval
- triggertime
- fetcherrormsg
- errortime

(cherry picked from commit 438ddf5289)
Plugins are now disabled at startup time unless there is some relevant
configuration in hydra.conf. This avoids hydra-notify having to do a
lot of redundant work (a lot of plugins did a lot of database queries
*before* deciding they were disabled).
Note: BitBucketStatus users will need to add 'enable_bitbucket_status
= 1' to hydra.conf.
This adds a `InfluxDBNotification` plugin which is configured as:
```
<influxdb>
url = http://127.0.0.1:8086
db = hydra
</influxdb>
```
which will write a notification for every finished job to the
configured database in InfluxDB looking like:
```
hydra_build_status,cached=false,job=job,jobset=default,project=sample,repo=default,result=success,status=success,system=x86_64-linux build_id="1",build_status=0i,closure_size=584i,duration=0i,main_build_id="1",queued=0i,size=168i 1564156212
```
Currently, a full store path has to be provided to search in
builds. This patch permits to search jobs with a output path or
derivation hash.
Usecase: we are building Docker images with Hydra. The tag of the
Docker image is the hash of the image output path. This patch would
allow us to find back the build job from the tag of a running
container image.
May 15 09:20:10 chef hydra-queue-runner[27523]: Hydra::Plugin::GitlabStatus=HASH(0x519a7b8)->buildFinished: Can't call method "value" on an undefined value at /nix/store/858hinflxcl2jd12wv1r3a8j11ybsf6w-hydra-0.1.2629.89fa829/libexec/hydra/lib/Hydra/Plugin/GitlabStatus.pm line 57.
This plugin expects as inputs to a jobset the following:
- gitlab_status_repo => Name of the repository input pointing to that
status updates should be POST'ed, i.e. the jobset has a git input
"nixexprs": "https://gitlab.example.com/project/nixexprs", in which
case "gitlab_status_repo" would be "nixexprs".
- gitlab_project_id => ID of the project in Gitlab, i.e. in the above
case the ID in gitlab of "nixexprs"
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.
