This option is not documented anywhere and while it may be set
in configuration.nix to enable integration, having it on by
default when using both plasma and firefox is a great convenience;
just like all other desktop environments do it already.
services.networking.firewall might have existed during import of this
module in 2016, but it is unknown as of today.
Point to the proper boolean knob to avoid confusion.
systemd.exec(5) on DynamicUser:
> If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name
> already exists, it is used and no dynamic user/group is allocated.
Using DynamicUser while still setting a group name can be
useful for granting access to resources that can otherwise only be
accessed with entirely static IDs.
Both packages will get EOLed within the lifetime of 20.09. `nextcloud17`
can be removed entirely (the attribute-path is kept however to provide
meaningful errors), however `nextcloud18` must be kept as `insecure` to
make sure that users from `nextcloud17` can properly upgrade to
`nextcloud19` on NixOS 20.09.
Turns out, `dd_url` should only be used in proxy scenarios, not to point
datadog to their EU endpoint - `site` should be used for that.
The `dd_url` setting doesn't affect APM, Logs or Live Process intake
which have their own "*_dd_url" settings.
The postfix exporter needs to access postfix's `queue/public/` directory
to read the `showq` socket inside. Instead of making the public
directory world accessible, this sets the postfix exporter's group to
`postdrop` by default, when the postfix service is enabled.
Secrets are injected from the environment into the rendered
configuration before each startup using envsubst.
The test now makes use of this feature for the db password.
The format of the listenAddress option was recently changed to separate
the address and the port parts. There is now a legacy check that
tells users to update to the new format. This legacy check produces
a false positive on IPv6 addresses, since they contain colons.
Fix the regex to make it not match colons within IPv6 addresses.
This splits PulseAudio and JACK emulation into separate outputs. Doing
so provides a number of benefits.
First it fixes pw-pulse and pw-jack. Prior to this they pointed to bogus
locations because the environment variables were not evaluated.
Technically fixing this only requires setting libpulse-path and
libjack-path to any absolute path not necessarily separate outputs but
it comes as a nice result.
Secondly it allows overriding libpulseaudio with pipewire.pulse in many
packages. This is possible because the new outputs have a more standard
layout.
This adds two tests. One is for whether the paths used by the module are
present, while the other is for testing functionality of PipeWire
itself. This is done with the recent addition of installed tests by
upstream.
This allows for transparent JACK and PulseAudio emulation. With this you
can essentially replace your entire audio framework with just PipeWire
for almost no configuration.
It had confusing semantics, being somewhere between a boolean option and
a FontPath specification. Introduce fontPath to replace it and mark the
old option as removed.
Regression introduced by 053b05d14d.
The commit in question essentially removed the "with pkgs;" from the

This removes the `services.dbus.socketActivated` and
`services.xserver.startDbusSession` options. Instead the user D-Bus
session is always socket activated.
This reverts commit 42eebd7ade, reversing
changes made to b169bfc9e2.
This breaks nfs3.simple test and even current PR #97656 wouldn't fix it.
Therefore let's revert for now to unblock the channels.
This option is only available as a command-line flag and not from the
config file, that is `services.picom.settings`. Therefore it is more
important that it gets its own option.
One reason one might need this set is that blur methods other than
kernel do not work with the old backends, see yshui/picom#464.
For reference, the home-manager picom module exposes this option too.
Following changes in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/91092 the `path` attribute is now a list
instead of being a string. This resulted resulted in the following evaluation error:
"cannot coerce a list to a string, at [...]/nixos/modules/services/networking/openvpn.nix:16:18"
so we now need to convert it to the right type ourselves.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/97360.
This fixes the case when Jack Audio Daemon is running
as a service via `services.jack.jackd` and Pulseaudio
running as a *user* service.
Two issues prevented connecting `pulse` with `jackd`:
* Missing `JACK_PROMISCUOUS_SERVER` environment variable for `pulse` user service,
resulting in `pulse` trying to access `jackd` as if it was running as part of
the users session.
* `jackd` not being able to access socket created by `pulse` due to socket
created using user ID and `users` group. Change allows `jackd` to access
the socket created by `pulse` correctly.
`pulse` now also autoloads `module-jack-sink` and `module-jack-source`
if `services.jack.jackd.enable` is set.
The default `pulse` package is now set to `pulseaudioFull` automatically
if `services.jack.jackd.enable` is set.
Add the option `environmentFile` to allow passing secrets to the service
without adding them to the Nix store, while keeping the current
configuration via the existing environment file intact.
powerDownCommands is supposed to run before shutdown, but the current
implementation only runs before-sleep, thus not enabling wakeonlan on
devices when powering off even if the hardware supports it.
Taking into consideration the possibility of unexpected shutdown, it is
preferable to move the commands to powerUpCommands instead which is
executed at boot time as well as after resume - that should cover all
use cases for wakeonlan.

xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)

Testing of certs failed randomly when the web server was still
returning old certs even after the reload was "complete". This was
because the reload commands send process signals and do not wait
for the worker processes to restart. This commit adds log watchers
which wait for the worker processes to be restarted.
- Use an acme user and group, allow group override only
- Use hashes to determine when certs actually need to regenerate
- Avoid running lego more than necessary
- Harden permissions
- Support "systemctl clean" for cert regeneration
- Support reuse of keys between some configuration changes
- Permissions fix services solves for previously root owned certs
- Add a note about multiple account creation and emails
- Migrate extraDomains to a list
- Deprecate user option
- Use minica for self-signed certs
- Rewrite all tests
I thought of a few more cases where things may go wrong,
and added tests to cover them. In particular, the web server
reload services were depending on the target - which stays alive,
meaning that the renewal timer wouldn't be triggering a reload
and old certs would stay on the web servers.
I encountered some problems ensuring that the reload took place
without accidently triggering it as part of the test. The sync
commands I added ended up being essential and I'm not sure why,
it seems like either node.succeed ends too early or there's an
oddity of the vm's filesystem I'm not aware of.
- Fix duplicate systemd rules on reload services
Since useACMEHost is not unique to every vhost, if one cert
was reused many times it would create duplicate entries in
${server}-config-reload.service for wants, before and
ConditionPathExists
The Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE) is not yet fully packaged in
nixpkgs and it has shown a very difficult task to complete, as
discussed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/94870. The
conclusion is that it is better to completely remove it.
We no longer escape the flags because the power limit flags want two arguments
If we escaped them, we'd only get one argument with an escaped space in it.
Undervolt's flags don't have anything in them that would need to be escaped, so
that shouldn't break anything
This makes the notification script use the subject generated by smartmontools
itself both for consistency with other distros and to include the hostname.
This patch ensures that latest Nextcloud works flawlessly again on our
`nginx`. The new config is mostly based on upstream recommendations
(again)[1]:
* Trying to access internals now results in a 404.
* All `.php`-routes get properly resolved now.
* Removed 404/403 handling from `nginx` as the app itself takes care of
this. Also, this breaks the `/ocs`-API.
* `.woff2?`-files expire later than other assets like images.
Closes#95293

Since systemd 243, docs were already steering users towards using
`journal`:
eedaf7f322
systemd 246 will go one step further, it shows warnings for these units
during bootup, and will [automatically convert these occurences to
`journal`](f3dc6af20f):
> [ 6.955976] systemd[1]: /nix/store/hwyfgbwg804vmr92fxc1vkmqfq2k9s17-unit-display-manager.service/display-manager.service:27: Standard output type syslog is obsolete, automatically updating to journal. Please update│······················
your unit file, and consider removing the setting altogether.
So there's no point of keeping `syslog` here, and it's probably a better
idea to just not set it, due to:
> This setting defaults to the value set with DefaultStandardOutput= in
> systemd-system.conf(5), which defaults to journal.
This breaks the Nextcloud vhost declaration when adding e.g. another
vhost as the `services.nginx.virtualHosts` option has `{ nextcloud =
...; }` as *default* value which will be replaced by another
`virtualHosts`-declaration with a higher (e.g. the default) priority.
The following cases are now supported & covered by the module:
* `nginx` is enabled with `nextcloud` enabled and other vhosts can be
added / other options can be declared without having to care
about the declaration's priority.
* Settings in the `nextcloud`-vhost in `nginx` have to be altered using
`mkForce` as this is the only way how we officially support `nginx`
for `nextcloud` and customizations have to be done explicitly using
`mkForce`.
* `nginx` will be completely omitted if a user enables nextcloud
and disables nginx using `services.nginx.enable = false;`. (because
nginx will be enabled by this module using `mkDefault`).
This reverts commit 128dbb31cc.
Closes#95259
nginx -t not only verifies configuration, but also creates (and chowns)
files. When the `nginx-config-reload` service is used, this can cause
directories to be chowned to `root`, causing nginx to fail.
This moves the nginx -t command into a second ExecReload command, which
runs as nginx's user. While fixing above issue, this will also cause the
configuration to be verified when running `systemctl reload nginx`, not
only when restarting the dummy `nginx-config-reload` unit. The latter is
mostly a workaround for missing features in our activation script
anyways.
Prior to this change, the `config` option (which allows you define the
haskell configuration for xmonad in your configuration.nix instead of
needing something in the home directory) prevents desktop manager
resources from starting. This can be demonstrated by configuring the
following:
```
services.xserver = {
displayManager.defaultSession = "xfce+xmonad";
displayManager.lightdm.enable = true;
desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
desktopManager.xfce.enable = true;
desktopManager.xfce.enableXfwm = false;
desktopManager.xfce.noDesktop = true;
windowManager.xmonad = {
enable = true;
enableContribAndExtras = true;
extraPackages = haskellPackages: [
haskellPackages.xmonad-contrib
haskellPackages.xmonad-extras
haskellPackages.xmonad
];
config = ''
import XMonad
import XMonad.Config.Xfce
main = xmonad xfceConfig
{ terminal = "terminator"
, modMask = mod4Mask }
'';
};
};
```
and after user log in, search for xfce processes `ps aux | grep xfce`.
You will not find xfce processes running until after the xmonad process is killed.
The bug prevents utilities included with the desktopManager,
(e.g. powerManagement, session logout, etc.)
from working as expected.
Use StateDirectory to create necessary directories and hardcode some
paths. Also drop file based audit logs, they can be found in the
journal. And add module option deprecation messages.
In fd9eb16b24, the option
"services.nextcloud.nginx.enable" has been removed since the module now
exclusively supports nginx only.
Unfortunately, with the option gone from the manual, the link in the
Nextcloud-specific documentation referencing the NixOS option also
became a dead link and thus the manual will no longer build.
I also removed a second reference to this option in the Nextcloud-
specific documentation, which while it doesn't lead to a build error in
the manual is nevertheless a good idea to remove as well to ensure we
don't present outdated information to readers of the manual.

* Change `malcontent-ui` package to primarily-a-program type derivation (`out`+`lib` instead of `bin`+`out`) since there are more and more `malcontent-control`-specific assets.
* This also fixes the issue where application data (desktop files, icons…) were installed to `out`, which is not installed by `environment.systemPackages`/`system-path.nix`’s `buildEnv` by default when `bin` output is also present.
* Make `malcontent` package install `out` output too so that `system-path.nix` links that too. It contains the AccountsService & Polkit data files.
* Split the library and PAM module out of `malcontent.out` so that they are not installed with the data files.

This adds yubikey-agent as a package and a nixos module.
On macOS, we use `wrapProgram` to set pinentry_mac as default in PATH;
on Linux we rely on the user to set their preferred pinentry in PATH.
In particular, we use a systemd override to prefix PATH to select a
chosen pinentry program if specified.
On Linux, we need libnotify to provide the notify-send utility for
desktop notifications (such as "Waiting for Yubikey touch...").
This might work on other flavors of unix, but I haven't tested.
We reuse the programs.gnupg.agent.pinentryFlavor option for
yubikey-agent, but in doing so I hit a problem: pinentryFlavour's
default value is specified in a mkDefault, but only conditionally. We
ought to be able to pick up the pinentryFlavour whether or not gpg-agent
is running. As a result, this commit moves the default value to the
definition of programs.gnupg.agent.enable.
This reverts commit d3a26a5ecd.
Using ServiceConfig.ExecStart instead of script lead to the content not

In the current implementation, there's no possibility to modify the default
parameter for keepalive. This is a number that indicates how frequently
keepalive messages should be sent from the worker to the buildmaster,
expressed in seconds. The default (600) causes a message to be sent to
the buildmaster at least once every 10 minutes.
If the worker is behind a NAT box or stateful firewall, these messages
may help to keep the connection alive: some NAT boxes tend to forget about
a connection if it has not been used in a while. When this happens, the
buildmaster will think that the worker has disappeared, and builds will
time out. Meanwhile the worker will not realize than anything is wrong.

Currently the service doesn't detect if on of the packages is updated
and doesn't restart.
By manually adding a trigger we make sure the service restarts if any of
the involved packages update.
In certain cases, for example when custom OpenLDAP modules are
compiled into the binary, users may want to override the package used
for OpenLDAP.
This is especially common in setups where LDAP is the primary
authentication source, as good password hashing mechanisms need to be
enabled as extra modules.
We remove the configFile build flag override in the NixOS module.
Instead of embedding the conf file link to the binaries, we symlink it
to /etc/nsd/nsd.nix, the hardcoded config file location for the
various CLI nsd utilities.
This config file build option override is triggerring a nsd rebuild
for each configuration change. This prevent us to use the nixos cache
in many cases.

Enhance the heuristics to make sure that a user doesn't accidentally
upgrade across two major versions of Nextcloud (e.g. from v17 to v19).
The original idea/discussion has been documented in the nixpkgs manual[1].
This includes the following changes:
* `nextcloud19` will be selected automatically when having a stateVersion
greater or equal than 20.09. For existing setups, the package has to
be selected manually to avoid accidental upgrades.
* When using `nextcloud18` or older, a warning will be thrown which recommends
upgrading to `nextcloud19`.
* Added a brief paragraph about `nextcloud19` in the NixOS 19.09 release
notes.
* Restart `phpfpm` if the Nextcloud-package (`cfg.package`) changes[2].

- Add serve.enable option, which configures uwsgi and nginx to serve
the mailman-web application;
- Configure services to log to the journal, where possible. Mailman
Core does not provide any options for this, but will now log to
/var/log/mailman;
- Use a unified python environment for all components, with an
extraPackages option to allow use of postgres support and similar;
- Configure mailman's postfix module such that it can generate the
domain and lmtp maps;
- Fix formatting for option examples;
- Provide a mailman-web user to run the uwsgi service by default
- Refactor Hyperkitty's periodic jobs to reduce repetition in the
expressions;
- Remove service dependencies not related to functionality included in
the module, such as httpd -- these should be configured in user config
when used;
- Move static files root to /var/lib/mailman-web-static by default. This avoids
permission issues when a static file web server attempts to access
/var/lib/mailman which is private to mailman. The location can still
be changed by setting services.mailman.webSettings.STATIC_ROOT;
- Remove the webRoot option, which seems to have been included by
accident, being an unsuitable directory for serving via HTTP.
- Rename mailman-web.service to mailman-web-setup.service, since it
doesn't actually serve mailman-web. There is now a
mailman-uwsgi.service if serve.enable is set to true.
Since Buildbot 0.9.0, status targets were deprecated and ignored.
There's a very small line on startup explaining that, and status simply
isn't reported. Avoid others the same headaches, and do it right in the
NixOS module.
As there might have been changes in the way reporters are organized, and
configuration might need to be migrated remove the old option, and not
just provide an alias.
The systemd socket unit files now more precisely track the IPFS
configuration, by including any multaddr they can make a `ListenStream`
for. (The daemon doesn't currently support anything which would use
`ListDatagram`, so we don't need to worry about that.)
The tests use some of these features.
Specifying mailboxes as a list isn't a good approach since this makes it
impossible to override values. For backwards-compatibility, it's still
possible to declare a list of mailboxes, but a deprecation warning will
be shown.
We need to keep the passthru.filesInstalledToEtc and passthru.defaultBlacklistedPlugins in sync with the package contents so let's add a test to enforce that.

This makes it possible to only start IPFS when needed. So a user’s
IPFS daemon only starts when they actually use it.
A few important warnings though:
- This probably shouldn’t be mixed with services.ipfs.autoMount
since you want /ipfs and /ipns aren’t activated like this
- ipfs.socket assumes that you are using ports 5001 and 8080 for the
API and gateway respectively. We could do some parsing to figure
out what is in apiAddress and gatewayAddress, but that’s kind of
difficult given the nonstandard address format.
- Apparently? this doesn’t work with the --api commands used in the tests.
Of course you can always start automatically with startWhenNeeded =
false, or just running ‘systemctl start ipfs.service’.
Tested with the following test (modified from tests/ipfs.nix):
import ./make-test-python.nix ({ pkgs, ...} : {
name = "ipfs";
nodes.machine = { ... }: {
services.ipfs = {
enable = true;
startWhenNeeded = true;
};
};
testScript = ''
start_all()
machine.wait_until_succeeds("ipfs id")
ipfs_hash = machine.succeed("echo fnord | ipfs add | awk '{ print $2 }'")
machine.succeed(f"ipfs cat /ipfs/{ipfs_hash.strip()} | grep fnord")
'';
})

Previously we had three services for different config flavors. This is
confusing because only one instance of IPFS can run on a host / port
combination at once. So move all into ipfs.service, which contains the
configuration specified in services.ipfs.
Also remove the env wrapper and just use systemd env configuration.
The default `undervolt` package does not accept floating point numbers for any of its numeric
arguments. This also mentions in what units are the values expressed.
The setgid is currently required for offline enqueuing, and
unfortunately smtpctl is currently not split from sendmail so there's
little running around it.
The OC_PASS environment variable can be used to create a user with
`occ user:add --password-from-env`. It is currently not possible to
use the `nextcloud-occ` to "non-interactively" create a user since
this variable is ignored by sudo.
This switches the unit to Restart=on-failure and switches the CPU policy
to fifo (the daemon tries to do that itself, but is denied permission).
Also add the package to $PATH to be able to use fs_cli easily.
It's pbPort, and it's also a connection string, meaning
listen-on-localhost is also possible. Provide an alias for the old
option name, so old configs still work.
This effectively disables nscd's built-in hosts cache, which turns out
to be erratic in some cases.
We only use nscd these days as a more ABI-neutral NSS dispatcher
mechanism.
Local caching should still be possible with local resolvers in
/etc/resolv.conf (via the `dns` NSS module), or without local resolvers
via systemd-networkd (via the `resolve` nss module)
We don't set enable-cache to no due to
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/50316#discussion_r241035226.
Refactor the systemd service definition for the haproxy reverse proxy,

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/88492 flipped some references to
systemctl from config.systemd.package to /run/current-system/systemd/,
which udevRules obviously isn't able resolve.
If we encounter such references, replace them with
config.systemd.package before doing the check.
it does happen that `dnscrypt-proxy` exit when it is unable to
synchronise its resolvers metadata on startup. this can happen due
to network connectivity issues for example. not restarting it automatically
means no dns resolution will work until a manual restart is performed.
Favor the configuration in "configFile" over "config" to allow
"configFile" to override "config" without a system rebuild.
Add a "persistentKeys" option to generate keys and addresses that
persist across service restarts. This is useful for self-configuring
boot media.
Accessing the configured port of a service is quite useful, for example
when configuring virtual hosts for a service. The prometheus module did
not expose the configured por separately, making it unnecessarily
cumbersome to consume.
This is a breaking change only if you were setting `listenAddress` to
a non-standard value. If you were, you should now set `listenAddress`
and `port` separately.
This ensures a correct DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable
is set and imported into the systemd user environment.
Previously this would refer to a non-existing path preventing commands
interacting with the systemd manager from working.
Closes#87502
The 6.0 changelog notes that systemd support was rewritten. The effects
of that seem to be twofold:
* Redis will silently fail to sd_notify if not built with libsystemd,
breaking our unit configuration.
* It also appears to misbehave if told to daemonize when running under
systemd -- note that upstream's sample unit configuration does not
daemonize:

Currently, sudo doesn't work in a NixOS container running inside a Nix
build, because Nix's seccomp filter doesn't allow setuid programs. In
any case, runuser is a bit lower-overhead than sudo.
nixos/modules/config/nsswitch.nix uses `passwdArray` for both `passwd`

The configured mbuffer path will be called on both the source and target
system. If you use pkgs.mbuffer from the source host and the target host
does not have this exact derivation, you will get a broken pipe when
sending snapshots. This is the case when transferring to a non-NixOS
system or to a host with a different mbuffer version.

file, man mpd.conf says "Do not use this option if you start MPD as an
unprivileged user"
The group option actually is not documented at all anymore and probably
no longer exists.
These options get in the way of setting up confinement for the service,
as it would otherwise be pretty straightforward to setup, but even if
mpd is not root it would check the user exists within the chroot which
is more work (need to get nss working):
systemd.services.mpd = {
serviceConfig.BindPaths = [
# mpd state dir
"/var/lib/mpd"
# notify systemd service started up
"/run/systemd/notify"
];
serviceConfig.BindReadOnlyPaths = [
"/path/to/music:/var/lib/mpd/music"
];
# ProtectSystem is not compatible with confinement
serviceConfig.ProtectSystem = lib.mkForce false;
confinement = {
enable = true;
binSh = null;
mode = "chroot-only";
};
};
By default, postgres prefixes each log line with a timestamp. On NixOS
logs are written to journal anyway, so they include an external
timestamp, so the timestamp ends up being printed twice, which clutters
the log.
* Add a module option to change the log prefix.
* Set it to upstream default sans timestamp.
This reverts commits 9d0de0dc57,
27d2857a99. 'nix ping-store' is an
experimental command so it doesn't work in Nix 2.4 unless you set
'experimental-features = nix-command' in nix.conf.
This seems to have worked in 15f105d41f (5
months ago) but broke somewhere in the meantime.
The current module doesn't seem to be underdocumented and might need a
serious refactor. It requires quite some hacks to get it to work (see
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/86305#issuecomment-621129942),
or how the ldap.nix test used systemd.services.openldap.preStart and
made quite some assumptions on internals.
Mic92 agreed on being added as a maintainer for the module, as he uses
it a lot and can possibly fix eventual breakages. For the most basic
startup breakages, the remaining openldap.nix test might suffice.
- Use floating points instead of strings, which Nix now supports
- Make the type of picom.settings option recursive
- Add a meaningful description of both the option and its type
Add extraConfig option for the muc submodule.
Also move the global extraConfig before all components and
virtualhosts, because the manual states:
The configuration is divided into two parts. The first part is known as
the "global" section. All settings here apply to the whole server, and
are the default for all virtual hosts.
The second half of the file is a series of VirtualHost and Component
definitions. Settings under each VirtualHost or Component line apply
only to that host.
Before, if at least one muc was defined, or uploadHttp enabled, the
global extraConfig would end up after "muc" or "http_upload" component
making it apply to that component only and not globally.
We add a Prosody entry to the NixOS manual showing how to setup a
basic XEP-0423 compliant Prosody service. This example also showcase
how to generate the associated ACME certificates.
Note: The <programlisting> body might look poorly indented, but trust
me, it's necessary. If we try to increase their indentation level, the
HTML output will end up containing a lot of unecesseray heading spaces
breaking the formatting...
The output file is found and handled by thelounge itself [1], leaving
the user free to override THELOUNGE_HOME in the environment if they
choose, but having a sensible default to make `thelounge` generally
usable in most cases.
This solution follows discussion on #70318.

We are leveraging the systemd sandboxing features to prevent the
service accessing locations it shouldn't do. Most notably, we are here
preventing the prosody service from accessing /home and providing it
with a private /dev and /tmp.
Please consult man systemd.exec for further informations.
Setting up a XMPP chat server is a pretty deep rabbit whole to jump in
when you're not familiar with this whole universe. Your experience
with this environment will greatly depends on whether or not your
server implements the right set of XEPs.
To tackle this problem, the XMPP community came with the idea of
creating a meta-XEP in charge of listing the desirable XEPs to comply
with. This meta-XMP is issued every year under an new XEP number. The
2020 one being XEP-0423[1].
This prosody nixos module refactoring makes complying with XEP-0423
easier. All the necessary extensions are enabled by default. For some
extensions (MUC and HTTP_UPLOAD), we need some input from the user and
cannot provide a sensible default nixpkgs-wide. For those, we guide
the user using a couple of assertions explaining the remaining manual
steps to perform.
We took advantage of this substential refactoring to refresh the
associated nixos test.
Changelog:
- Update the prosody package to provide the necessary community
modules in order to comply with XEP-0423. This is a tradeoff, as
depending on their configuration, the user might end up not using them
and wasting some disk space. That being said, adding those will
allow the XEP-0423 users, which I expect to be the majority of
users, to leverage a bit more the binary cache.
- Add a muc submodule populated with the prosody muc defaults.
- Add a http_upload submodule in charge of setting up a basic http
server handling the user uploads. This submodule is in is
spinning up an HTTP(s) server in charge of receiving and serving the
user's attachments.
- Advertise both the MUCs and the http_upload endpoints using mod disco.
- Use the slixmpp library in place of the now defunct sleekxmpp for
the prosody NixOS test.
- Update the nixos test to setup and test the MUC and http upload
features.
- Add a couple of assertions triggered if the setup is not xep-0423
compliant.
