@ -35,3 +35,22 @@ Whenever a new service is added, append an appropriate
|
|||
`flake.nix` to bind the service to a host port.
|
||||
|
||||
There is no way to test this without binding to the host port, sadly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deploying
|
||||
|
||||
Currently the deployment process is fully manual because there is no
|
||||
CI system.
|
||||
|
||||
Nix makes this fairly painless, though, it's simply:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
nixos-rebuild switch --use-remote-sudo --target-host tlater.net --build-host localhost --flake .#tlaternet
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This has the added benefit of running the build on the dev machine,
|
||||
which is 99% of the time much faster at building than the target
|
||||
(though artifact upload may take some time on slow connections).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this also requires the current local user to also be present
|
||||
on the target host, as well as for this user to be in the target
|
||||
host's wheel group. See `nix.trustedUsers`.
