Jenkins gets (by default) an additional environment of
{ NIX_REMOTE = "daemon"; }
This has the following problems:
1. NIX_REMOTE disappears when users specify additional environment
variables, because defaults have low merge priority.
2. nix cannot be used without additional NIX_PATH envvar, which is
currently missing.
3. If you try to use HTTPS, you'll see that jenkins lacks
SSL_CERT_FILE envvar, causing it to fail.
This commit adds config.environment.sessionVariables and NIX_REMOTE to
the set of variables that are always there for jenkins, making nix and
HTTPS work out of the box.
services.jenkins.environment is now empty by default.
Commit 9bfe92ecee ("docker: Minor improvements, fix failing test") added
the services.docker.storageDriver option, made it mandatory but didn't
give it a default value. This results in an ugly traceback when users
enable docker, if they don't pay enough attention to also set the
storageDriver option. (An attempt was made to add an assertion, but it
didn't work, possibly because of how "mkMerge" works.)
The arguments against a default value were that the optimal value
depends on the filesystem on the host. This is, AFAICT, only in part
true. (It seems some backends are filesystem agnostic.) Also, docker
itself uses a default storage driver, "devicemapper", when no
--storage-driver=x options are given. Hence, we use the same value as
default.
Add a FIXME comment that 'devicemapper' breaks NixOS VM tests (for yet
unknown reasons), so we still run those with the 'overlay' driver.
Closes#10100 and #10217.
When using the ZFS storagedriver in docker, it shells out for the ZFS
commands. The path configuration for the systemd task does not include
ZFS, so if the driver is set to ZFS, add ZFS utilities to the PATH.
This will resolve https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/10127
