Issue while compiling

[Darecjo]

I'm having the following error is there any solution for it. I'm not familiar with nix.

~/primal-caching-service# nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' develop -c sh -c '$start_primal_caching_service'

does this work for you?

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/PrimalHQ/primal-caching-service
cd primal-caching-service
nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' run github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11#nix -- develop -c sh -c '$start_primal_caching_service'

[Darecjo]

nop this is exactly what i tried except for the github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11#nix, I will check and let you know, moreover the docker version works fine. I'm trying to run it on an ec2 instance and I'm facing difficulties with it no clue why.
Ps: the docker version works fine and caching, however I can't access the instance via wss connection.
It would be great if there is a brief guideline for the process, because this service is truly valuable.

[Darecjo]

its saying the nix-command is disabled even tho the flag is inserted.

error: experimental Nix feature 'nix-command' is disabled; use '--extra-experimental-features nix-command' to override

[pritk]

what about this?

nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' run github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11#nix -- --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' develop -c sh -c '$start_primal_caching_service'

[Darecjo]

Couldn't find flake.nix

/home/ubuntu/primal-caching-service# nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' run github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.11#nix -- --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' develop -c sh -c '$start_primal_caching_service'
path '/' does not contain a 'flake.nix', searching up
error: could not find a flake.nix file

removed the 23.11# part now having this

/home/ubuntu/primal-caching-service# nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' run github:NixOS/nixpkgs/ nix -- --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' develop -c sh -c '$start_primal_caching_service'
error: cannot find flake attribute 'github:NixOS/nixpkgs#defaultApp.x86_64-linux'

it turns out the problem was with the nix itself I managed to get it up and running using this: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install
Ps: The latest command is the one I used.

[Darecjo]

Is there any proper configuration for nginx for the cache I can find anywhere?

[Darecjo]

I managed to run properly, however i strongly introduce providing a step-by-step guidance most people are not familiar with the setting up.

Thanks a lot @pritk I appreciate the overall guidance.

[pritk]

Is there any proper configuration for nginx for the cache I can find anywhere?

we are using nixos module for nginx for configuration. if you are on the same distro or are interested in that form i can share here some parts of our system configuration related to nginx.

[Darecjo]

that would be great yeah.

[Darecjo]

Is there any example on how to import a .jsonl events file directly to the cache using the import_events function?

[trijenhout]

i am running in a docker container true the following bash script:
#!/bin/bash

#full git path /mnt/Containers/Nostr/Primal/primal-web-app/

cd $Path/primal-caching-service
git pull

docker stop Primal-Cache
docker rm Primal-Cache
#docker rmi primal

#docker build --no-cache -t primal .

docker run -d -it

[pritk]

did you clone git submodules too?

[trijenhout]

did you clone git submodules too?

Thanks that did the trick (never heard about submods)
