This helps with understanding the code.
We might make this not depend on environment variables later.
systemBuilderArgs is a form of global state, which isn't helpful.
The nixos/caddy module is somewhat old by now
and has undergone quite some refactors.
This specific module option (originally named
`ca`) used to make a bit more sense when
Caddy did not have multiple ACME CAs as
fallback (LE & ZeroSSL) by configured by
default yet (ZeroSSL came with v2.3.0).
I also rephrased the description slightly,
to mention Caddy's automatic issuer fallback
and a note which this option maps to in the
Caddyfile, to provide a bit more context and
a more up-to-date recommendation.
Specifically that "fine-grained configuration"
section comes from a time when this module did
some custom tls/issuer config json merging
with the templated Caddyfile using `jq`.
The "The URL to the ACME CA's directory"
section is a word-for-word copy from the
official Caddy docs, which also include a link
to LE's docs to the referenced staging
endpoint. So I added that as well.
Since ddclient@24ba945 (v3.10.0), the type and meaning of the "ipv6"
option has changed. This resulted in the following warning when
starting the service:
WARNING: file /run/ddclient/ddclient.conf, line 13:
Invalid Value for keyword 'ipv6' = 'no'
This therefore removes the matching boolean option.
More advanced configurations can use the "extraConfig" option instead.
As with many things, we have scenarios where we don't want to boot on a
disk / bootloader and also we don't want to boot directly.
Sometimes, we want to boot through an OptionROM of our NIC, e.g. netboot
scenarios or let the firmware decide something, e.g. UEFI PXE (or even
UEFI OptionROM!).
This is composed of:
- `directBoot.enable`: whether to direct boot or not
- `directBoot.initrd`: enable overriding the
`config.system.build.initialRamdisk` defaults, useful for
netbootRamdisk for example.
This makes it possible.
This essentially backports
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/27791. `systemd-networkd.service`
is sent the `SIGTERM` signal, but it is not required to be stopped
before `initrd-switch-root.target` is reached, despite the use of
`systemctl isolate initrd-switch-root.target`. This is because when
there is no ordering at all between two units, and a transaction stops
one and starts the other, the two operations can happen
simultaneously. This means the service could still be running when
`switch-root` actually occurs. Then, stage 2 systemd will see the
service still running and decide it doesn't need to add a start
operation for it to its initial transaction. Finally, the service
exits, but only after it's already too late. If, however, there is any
ordering at all between a stopping unit and a starting unit, then the
stop operation will be done first. This way, we ensure that the
service is properly exited before doing `switch-root`.
This is something to keep in mind going forward. There may be other
services that need this treatment. These `before` and `conflicts`
definitions are the correct way to ensure a unit is actually stopped
before you reach initrd-switch-root
GL was already participially disabled because X11 is disabled and lead to
the following error when building gst-plguins-good:
```
Did not find CMake 'cmake'
Found CMake: NO
Run-time dependency gstreamer-gl-prototypes-1.0 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)
Looking for a fallback subproject for the dependency gstreamer-gl-prototypes-1.0

```
not using this any more, and really don't have the energy to deal with
neither the fallout of ubnt not officially supporting mongodb newer than
3.6, nor the hacks nixpkgs contains to work around that.
`udevRulesFor` generates a lot of warnings like:
substituteStream(): WARNING: pattern '"/sbin/modprobe' doesn't match anything in file '/nix/store/.../95-dm-notify.rules'
due to the (preemptive) substitution of common paths in the default
udev rules. In this case a file having no matches is not unepected
and poses no issue at all.
