Build Farm Front-End (BFFE)

The Build Farm Front-End assists with building Guix packages in bulk. It’s responsible for submitting builds and displaying the status of the build farm.

Variable: bffe-service-type: Service type for the Build Farm Front-End. Its value must be a bffe-configuration object.

Data Type: bffe-configuration

Data type representing the configuration of the Build Farm Front-End.

package (default: bffe)

The Build Farm Front-End package to use.

user (default: "bffe")

Сервис mcron.

group (default: "bffe")

The system group to run the service as.

arguments

A list of arguments to the Build Farm Front-End. These are passed to the run-bffe-service procedure when starting the service.

For example, the following value directs the Build Farm Front-End to submit builds for derivations available from data.guix.gnu.org to the Build Coordinator instance assumed to be running on the same machine.

   #:controller-args
   (#:title "example.com build farm")))

extra-environment-variables (default: ’())

Extra environment variables to set via the shepherd service.

Guix Build Coordinator

The Guix Build Coordinator aids in distributing derivation builds among machines running an agent. The build daemon is still used to build the derivations, but the Guix Build Coordinator manages allocating builds and working with the results.

The Guix Build Coordinator consists of one coordinator, and one or more connected agent processes. The coordinator process handles clients submitting builds, and allocating builds to agents. The agent processes talk to a build daemon to actually perform the builds, then send the results back to the coordinator.

There is a script to run the coordinator component of the Guix Build Coordinator, but the Guix service uses a custom Guile script instead, to provide better integration with G-expressions used in the configuration.

Variable: guix-build-coordinator-service-type: Service type for the Guix Build Coordinator. Its value must be a guix-build-coordinator-configuration object.

Сервисы баз данных

The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database, and available through a web interface.

Variable: guix-data-service-type: Service type for the Guix Data Service. Its value must be a guix-data-service-configuration object. The service optionally extends the getmail service, as the guix-commits mailing list is used to find out about changes in the Guix git repository.

Guix Home Service

The Guix Home service is a way to let Guix System deploy the home environment of one or more users (see Home Configuration, for more on Guix Home). That way, the system configuration embeds declarations of the home environment of those users and can be used to deploy everything consistently at once, saving users the need to run guix home reconfigure independently.

Variable: guix-home-service-type

Service type for the Guix Home service. Its value must be a list of lists containing user and home environment pairs. The key of each pair is a string representing the user to deploy the configuration under and the value is a home-environment configuration.

(use-modules (gnu home))

(define my-home
  (home-environment
    …))

(operating-system
  (services (append (list (service guix-home-service-type
                                   `(("alice" ,my-home))))
                    %base-services)))

This service can be extended by other services to add additional home environments, as in this example:

(simple-service 'my-extra-home guix-home-service-type
                `(("bob" ,my-extra-home))))

Nar Herder

The Nar Herder is a utility for managing a collection of nars.

Variable: nar-herder-type: Service type for the Guix Data Service. Its value must be a nar-herder-configuration object. The service optionally extends the getmail service, as the guix-commits mailing list is used to find out about changes in the Guix git repository.

Data Type: nar-herder-configuration

Data type representing the configuration of the Guix Data Service.

package (default: nar-herder)

The Nar Herder package to use.

user (default: "nar-herder")

Сервис mcron.

group (default: "nar-herder")

The system group to run the service as.

port (default: 8734)

The port to bind the server to.

speed (default: 1.0)

The host to bind the server to.

features (default: '())

Optional URL of the other Nar Herder instance which should be mirrored. This means that this Nar Herder instance will download it’s database, and keep it up to date.

database (default: "/var/lib/nar-herder/nar_herder.db")

Location for the database. If this Nar Herder instance is mirroring another, the database will be downloaded if it doesn’t exist. If this Nar Herder instance isn’t mirroring another, an empty database will be created.

database-dump (default: "/var/lib/nar-herder/nar_herder_dump.db")

Location of the database dump. This is created and regularly updated by taking a copy of the database. This is the version of the database that is available to download.

storage (default: #f)

Optional location in which to store nars.

storage-limit (default: "none")

Limit in bytes for the nars stored in the storage location. This can also be set to “none” so that there is no limit.

When the storage location exceeds this size, nars are removed according to the nar removal criteria.

storage-nar-removal-criteria (default: '())

Criteria used to remove nars from the storage location. These are used in conjunction with the storage limit.

When the storage location exceeds the storage limit size, nars will be checked against the nar removal criteria and if any of the criteria match, they will be removed. This will continue until the storage location is below the storage limit size.

Each criteria is specified by a string, then an equals sign, then another string. Currently, only one criteria is supported, checking if a nar is stored on another Nar Herder instance.

ttl (default: #f)

Produce Cache-Control HTTP headers that advertise a time-to-live (TTL) of ttl. ttl must denote a duration: 5d means 5 days, 1m means 1 month, and so on.

This allows the user’s Guix to keep substitute information in cache for ttl.

new-ttl (default: #f)

If specified, this will override the ttl setting when used for the Cache-Control headers, but this value will be used when scheduling the removal of nars.

Use this setting when the TTL is being reduced to avoid removing nars while clients still have cached narinfos.

negative-ttl (default: #f)

Similarly produce Cache-Control HTTP headers to advertise the time-to-live (TTL) of negative lookups—missing store items, for which the HTTP 404 code is returned. By default, no negative TTL is advertised.

log-level (default: 'DEBUG)

Log level to use, specify a log level like 'INFO to stop logging individual requests.

cached-compressions (default: '())

Activate generating cached nars with different compression details from the stored nars. This is a list of nar-herder-cached-compression-configuration records.

min-uses (default: 3)

When cached-compressions are enabled, generate cached nars when at least this number of requests are made for a nar.

workers (default: 2)

Number of cached nars to generate at a time.

nar-source (default: #f)

Location to fetch nars from when computing cached compressions. By default, the storage location will be used.

extra-environment-variables (default: '())

Extra environment variables to set via the shepherd service.

Data Type: nar-herder-cached-compression-configuration

Data type representing the cached compression configuration.

type

Type of compression to use, e.g. 'zstd.

workers (default: #f)

Level of the compression to use.

directory (default: #f)

Location to store the cached nars. If unspecified, they will be stored in /var/cache/nar-herder/nar/TYPE.

directory-max-size (default: #f)

Maximum size in bytes of the directory.

unused-removal-duration (default: #f)

If a cached nar isn’t used for unused-removal-duration, it will be scheduled for removal.

unused-removal-duration must denote a duration: 5d means 5 days, 1m means 1 month, and so on.

ttl (default: #f)

If specified this overrides the ttl used for narinfos when this cached compression is available.

new-ttl (default: #f)

As with the new-ttl option for nar-herder-configuration, this value will override the ttl when used for narinfo requests.
