# malobeo infrastructure # malobeo infrastructure
this repository nxios configurations of the digital malobeo infrastructure. it should be used to setup, test, build and deploy different hosts in a reproducible manner. this repository contains nixos configurations of the digital malobeo infrastructure. it should be used to setup, test, build and deploy different hosts in a reproducible manner.
the file structure is based on this [blog post](https://samleathers.com/posts/2022-02-03-my-new-network-and-deploy-rs.html)
## hosts
#### durruti
- nixos-container running on dedicated hetzner server
- login via ```ssh -p 222 malobeo@dynamicdiscord.de```
- if rebuild switch fails due to biglock do ```mount -o remount,rw /nix/var/nix/db```
- currently is running tasklist in detached tmux session
- [x] make module with systemd service out of that
## creating a new host
### setting up filesystem
currently nixos offers no declarative way of setting up filesystems and partitions. that means this has to be done manually for every new host. [to make it as easy as possible we can use this guide to setup an encrypted zfs filesystem](https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Getting%20Started/NixOS/Root%20on%20ZFS.html)
*we could create a shell script out of that*
### deploying configuration ### deploying configuration
#### local deployment hosts are deployed automatically from master. The [hydra build server](https://hydra.dynamicdiscord.de/jobset/malobeo/infrastructure) will build new commits and on success, hosts will periodically pull those changes.
``` shell Big changes (like updating flake lock) could be commited to the staging branch first. [Hydra builds staging seperate](https://hydra.dynamicdiscord.de/jobset/malobeo/staging), and on success you can merge into master.
nixos-rebuild switch --use-remote-sudo
```
#### remote deployment ### deploy fresh host
if you want to deploy a completly new host refer to [docs](https://docs.malobeo.org/anleitung/create.html)
you need the hostname and ip address of the host: ### testing configuration
``` shell
nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#<hostname> --target-host root@<ip_address> --build-host localhost
```
in this case 'localhost' is used as buildhost which can be usefull if the target host is low systemresources

### building raspberry image
for the raspberry it is possible to build the whole configuration as an sd-card image which then can be flashed directly. more information about building arm on nixos can be found [here](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM).
to be able to build the image you need to enable qemu emulation on the machine you are building with. therefore it is necessary to add the following to your configuration.nix:
``` nix
boot.binfmt.emulatedSystems = [ "aarch64-linux" ];
```
then you can build the image with:
``` shell
nix build .#nixosConfigurations.rpi1_base_image.config.system.build.sdImage
```
### run a configuration as vm
to run a vm we have to build it first using the following command (replace ```<hostname>``` with the actual hostname):
``` shell
nix build .#nixosConfigurations.<hostname>.config.system.build.vm
```
afterwards run the following command to start the vm:
``` shell
./result/bin/run-<hostname>-vm
```
### documentation ### documentation
for documentation we currently just use README.md files. documentation is automatically build from master and can be found here: docs.malobeo.org
locally you can run documentation using ```nix run .#docs``` or ```nix run .#docsDev```
the devshell provides the python package ['grip'](https://github.com/joeyespo/grip) which can be used to preview different README.md files in the browser.
the usage is simple, just run ```grip``` in the same folder as the README.md you wanna preview. then open your browser at ```http://localhost:6419 ```.
