It has been like this since the module was added, but it hasn't caused
problems because greetd assumes a default user of "greeter"[1] when it
isn't found anyway

Suppose you want to provide a LDAP-based directory search to your
homeserver via a service-user with a bind-password. To make sure that
this doesn't end up in the Nix store, it's now possible to set a
substitute for the bindPassword like
services.mxisd.extraConfig.ldap.connection = {
# host, bindDn etc.
bindPassword = "$LDAP_BIND_PW";
};
and write the actual secret into an environment file that's readable for
`mxisd.service` containing
LDAP_BIND_PW=<your secret bind pw>
and the following setting in the Nix expression:
services.mxisd.environmentFile = "/runs/ecrets/mxisd";
(cherry picked from commit aa25ce7aa1a89618e4257fd46c7d20879f54c728)
Without this change, configurations like
```nix
fileSystems."/path/to/bindMountedDirectory" = {
device = "/path/to/originalDirectory";
options = [ "bind" ];
};
```
will lead to a warning message in `dmesg`:
```
systemd-fstab-generator: Checking was requested for "/path/to/originalDirectory", but it is not a device.
```
This happens because the generated /etc/fstab entry contains a non-zero fsck pass number, which doesn't make sense for a bind mount.
This reverts commit 7141ab0f0b.
reverting this for now to unblock staging-next

* Update to the latest upstream version of pass-secret-service that includes
systemd service files.
* Add patch to fix use of a function that has been removed from the Python
Cryptography library in NixOS 22.05
* Install systemd service files in the Nix package.
* Add NixOS test to ensure the D-Bus API activates the service unit.
* Add myself as a maintainer to the package and NixOS test.
* Use checkTarget instead of equivalent custom checkPhase.
The `bash` binary is needed for running some plugins, notably the alarm notify plugins. If the binary isn't in the path, alarms notifications aren't sent and the netdata error log instead contains `/usr/bin/env: 'bash': No such file or directory`.
The FUSE mount functionality of IPFS was broken by the update to v0.13.0, so disable it. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
See https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/issues/9044.
Due to lack of maintenance. It is not compatible with the default
Python version (due to the tornado 5) dependency, and doesn't look
like it will be any time soon.
Install Parallel Tools updated for version 17 of Parallels for macOS. This
fixes clipboard sharing, so that copy and paste works between the host
macOS and the guest NixOS VM. Support for guests on M1 Apple Silicon-based
Macs (aarch64-linux) is also added.

- support librewolf in the firefox nixos test
- use the correct binary name
- ensure autoplay is always on for the audio test, since
librewolf disables it by default
This was broken by a bad merge, where the same attribute was added
separately in two different places.

Since 831024e2b9 ("nixos/dhcpcd: assert if privSep && alternative
malloc"), this test has an assertion failure because dhcpcd (with
privsep enabled) is not compatible with the allocator used by the
hardened profile.
Since it's unclear[1] what to do about this for the hardened profile,
I propose doing the simplest thing possible to make the test eval,
which is to just disable dhcpcd privsep. It's very inconvenient when
trying to refactor the NixOS test infrastructure to have a test that
doesn't evaluate. Once the correct solution is found for using dhcpcd
with privsep with the hardened profile, this patch can be reverted.

This commit fixes the following error:
Failed assertions:
- Setting xdg.portal.enable to true requires a portal implementation in xdg.portal.extraPortals such as xdg-desktop-portal-gtk or xdg-desktop-portal-kde.
I was under the impression that setting `services.redis.servers.<name>.save = []` would disable RDB persistence as no schedule would mean no persistence. However since the code did not handle this case specially it actually results in no `save` setting being written and the internal Redis default is used.
This patch handles the empty case to disable RDB persistence.
Disabling RDB persistence is useful in a number of scenarios:
1. Using Redis in a pure-cache mode where persistence is not desired.
2. When using the (generally superior) AOF persistence mode this file is never read so there is little point to writing it.
3. When saving is handled manually
For more information see https://redis.io/docs/manual/persistence/
This is a breaking change as the user may have been relying on `[]` using Redis defaults. However I believe that updating the behaviour for the next release is beneficial as IMHO it is less surprising and does what the user would expect. I have added release notes to warn about this change.
* nixos/vault: add option to start in dev mode.
This is not only useful for nixos tests i.e. when testing vault agent
setups but also when playing around with vault in local setups. In our
tests we can now make use of this option to test more vault features.
i.e. adding this feature has uncovered the need for a `StateDirectory`.
* Update nixos/modules/services/security/vault.nix

Simon passed away in December 2021.
Simon, it was a pleasure to work with you, to learn things together
and to share good times. It ended too soon. You will be missed.
When using the example without the square brackets, nginx fails to start:
```
nginx-pre-start: nginx: [emerg] invalid port in "::1:80" of the "listen" directive in /nix/store/xyz-nginx.conf:29
nginx-pre-start: nginx: configuration file /nix/store/xyz-nginx.conf test failed
```
* Update attribute names in code examples (* -> settings.*).
* Use `nix-shell -p` rather than `nix run` because the example won't
work with the current default Nix.
* Update config values for `element-web`.
* Fix link to `element-web` security considerations.
* Make the synapse expression even smaller and use callout-lists to
explain the code.
* Document how to correctly deploy the shared registration secret.

Potential use cases for disabling `useDefaultFilesystems` include:
- Testing with uncommon filesystem layouts
- Testing scenarios where swapping occurs
- Testing with LUKS-encrypted disks
Closes#177963
we can't add 'nixpkgs.curl.tests' to hydra jobs due to 'tests' (and 'passthru') being stripped
TODO: add a function in lib-release.nix to get derivations and add `.x86_64-linux` to them
then we can just point release files to nixpkgs.tests.packageTestsForChannelBlockers instead of
nixpkgs.tests.packageTestsForChannelBlockers.curl.withCheck
Running `nixos/tests/keepassxc.nix` shows:
```

```
This garbled bash script runs without `set -o errexit` and thus skips
"\n\n" as invalid command:
```
$ cat -n /nix/store/2g2jx5c6x3p152wbiijr0rmky7byqivc-xsession
...
\n\n
if [ -e $HOME/.background-image ]; then
/nix/store/wq1d1ph8wj4alpx78akvpbd0a0m9qkd1-feh-3.8/bin/feh --bg-scale $HOME/.background-image
fi
...
```
KeePassXC uses it through
`nixos/modules/services/x11/display-managers/default.nix`:
```
...
# Script responsible for starting the window manager and the desktop manager.
xsession = dm: wm: pkgs.writeScript "xsession" ''
#! ${pkgs.bash}/bin/bash
# Legacy session script used to construct .desktop files from
# `services.xserver.displayManager.session` entries. Called from
# `sessionWrapper`.
# Start the window manager.
${wm.start}
# Start the desktop manager.
${dm.start}
...
'';
...
```
The bogus line was introduced in PR #160752:
```

desktop manager script: start properly
Adds a missing line feed when X is enabled to the start script name
and the appended if check. Resolves#160735
```
I have not tried to reproduce the original issue and thus don't know
why "\n\n" apparently gets interpreted fine in one place but remains
literal the `xsession` case.
However, using a literal newline must be valid for all cases and
certainly fixes the warning seen in KeePassXC tests.
Furthermore, starting the nix string (`''`) with a newline as usual also
fixes its overall indentation.
This patch follows an upstream commit[1].
Before this patch, if acme module is used, caddy will still use an old
cert even a new one is available. The cause is that without --force
flag, caddy will not reload an unchanged config.

Seems silly to install this for use with the local server, but to not
configure it to use the local server. Otherwise, out of the box we
just get an error about no server being configured.
By writing the unchecked outputs before checking them, they will
be written to a store path, which appears in the log, and which
sticks around even if the build fails. Eventually it is GCed, but
until then, you can open the file.
If you run it in a terminal+editor combination like VSCode, the
failure location is just one Ctrl+click away.
The `nixos-rebuild` tool calls `get-version-suffix` to figure out the
git revision of the nixpkgs directory if there is a .git.
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-24765 made git throw an
error if the .git search logic is not turned off and a user
tries to access a `.git` directory they don’t own (otherwise a
different user could trick them into setting arbitrary git config).
So from now on we should always explicitely set `--git-dir`, which
turns this search logic (and thus the security check) off.
I have read the full diff[0] between the previous owner and the new
maintained fork that I'm switching to, and could not find any suspicious
code. The new fork includes fixes that are otherwise crashing as of
Python 3.10.
This commit also fixes the PYTHONPATH which prevents the client from
starting.
This commit also adds a test that the client can successfully query the
server, testing the two components at once.

It was never meant to be used for anything other than testing
and setting it globally can cause weird loops in GTK-based portals,
where the portal will end up waiting for itself until it times out.

Or it can mess up fonts:

Having the option in NixOS makes it look like it is okay or even
desirable to enable, when in fact it is a hack that can subtly break apps.
Some apps allow opting into using portal-based APIs, e.g. for Firefox,
you can set `widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker` to `1` in about:config.
Otherwise, you can set the `GTK_USE_PORTAL` environment variable to 1
for individual apps.
People who really want it and aware of the downsides can just set
`environment.sessionVariables.GTK_USE_PORTAL = "1";` NixOS option
directly to set the environment variable globally.
