Mayflower-opinionated Nix modules, overlay and Hydra Configuration

This is a collection of too opinionated or too experimental Nix code we use at Mayflower, mostly in production.

Overlay

The overlay consists of some additional packages that are too experimental to upstream currently:

  • mailman3, including Postorius and Hyperkitty
  • serviceOverview, see below in the modules section
  • dovecot and postfix, overridden to include PgSQL support

Using the overlay

When importing nixpkgs:

{ nixpkgs ? <nixpkgs> }:

let
  nixexprsRepo = (import nixpkgs {}).fetchFromGitHub {
    owner = "mayflower";
    repo = "nixexprs";
    rev = "afee8fa90f5f864a9d011a0bdcdb4b657deff813";
    sha256 = "0y8da7cg9jg2xl83x6slg5zjjdn2ah9m2ymqynnq8aqqymdp4xf8";
  };
in import nixpkgs {
  overlays = [ (import "${nixexprsRepo}/overlay.nix") ];
}

When using it in the NixOS configuration:

{ pkgs, ... }:

let
  nixexprsRepo = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
    owner = "mayflower";
    repo = "nixexprs";
    rev = "afee8fa90f5f864a9d011a0bdcdb4b657deff813";
    sha256 = "0y8da7cg9jg2xl83x6slg5zjjdn2ah9m2ymqynnq8aqqymdp4xf8";
  };
in {
  nixpkgs.overlays = [ (import "${nixexprsRepo}/overlay.nix") ];
}

Testing builds with your local nixpkgs (from NIX_PATH). In this repository default.nix just applies the overlay to <nixpkgs>:

nix-build -A postfix  # includes pgsql support

Use another nixpkgs repository:

nix-build --argstr nixpkgs /home/robin/dev/nixpkgs-upstream -A postfix

Modules

services.automx

Automx service to provide mail client auto configuration. To be upstreamed soon, but not clean enough, yet.

mayflower.base

Enabled by default. Sets a number of default options including some opinionated defaults as well as very Mayflower-specific things like setting our mailserver for delivery. Thus, you will want to turn this off and steal the parts you want to have yourself. Or feel free to open a PR to split this up into opinionated options and company-specific options if we don't beat you to it.

mayflower.cachet

Packaging + VHost for cachet, an open source status page.

mayflower.copy-nixpkgs

Copies the nixpkgs used during deployment to the target system to a stable location.

mayflower.demockrazy

A service to create polls which are as anonymous as possible and leave as little trace as possible. This is software that was written in-house at mayflower but is open source and mostly needs some polishing up prior to upstreaming this as services.demockrazy.

mayflower.docker-runner

A litte abstraction for docker gitlab runners. Not too interesting probably if you don't actually want our defaults and not worth upstreaming.

mayflower.hagrid

Minimal module to self-host Hagrid, an open-source PGP keyserver.

mayflower.kvm

Some defaults for kvm guests.

mayflower.log-aggregation

Generates a VPN network for a deployment to push logs via promtail to a central loki instance.

mayflower.machines

An option to pass NixOps resources.machines to, which is not accessible from the module system otherwise.

mayflower.matrix

Module which aims to simplify the setup of a full-blown Matrix setup including Element, TURN integration and mxisd as directory service.

mayflower.monitoring

Auto-generation of prometheus targets from the config of all your machines in the deployment (fetched by using mayflower.machines). Very opinionated, but feel free to send in PRs to make this more configurable and fit your needs better. Especially the alert rules will most probably not meet your requirements, but this generally should be a good starting point for prometheus used with NixOps as it includes federation support and meshed alertmanager and a number of exporters that get enabled by default if the relevant service is running. As always YMMV.

services.opsdroid

Minimal module to deploy opsdroid, a python-based ops bot (used for e.g. JIRA and GitLab notifications).

mayflower.prometheusFederation

Generates a VPN network used to create a mesh of several Prometheus instances syncing metrics with each other. Used to have a single Prometheus for each site, but centralized metrics and alerting.

mayflower.serviceOverview

Generates a list of services and their support status from options over all mayflower.machines.

services.simplesamlphp

Sets up simplesamlphp to allow our users to authenticate with their PrivacyIDEA credentials against internal services using SAML.

sops-extension

Extends the sops-nix-module to support a structure like secrets/<name of machine>/secrets.sops.yaml to support per-machine secrets in a large deployment.

mayflower.wireguard

Allows to generate a VPN network in a star topology using WireGuard over machines defined in a deployment.

Hydra Jobs

This repository also contains our complete hydra declarative project and jobset specification. This won't be of much use outside of our environment but there probably are a few things to take inspiration from.
