Add wink (Wo ist meine Winkekatze?) for hacc-voc 
This adds an instance of wink for the hacc-voc to hainich. Unfortunately,
neither the actual package nor the container itself look very nixy, and
e.g. cannot be configured declaratively. On the other hand, it does not
appear the wink *has* any kind of config, so I guess there's that.

Wink itself runs in a nixos container, but I've exposed its database
to /var/lib/wink-db on the host, just to make it easier to access.

After deployment, we still need to migrate our current database to this
instance by hand (i.e. take the current database, rename it
"development.sqlite3", and move it into the wink-db directory).

Any improvements to this mess are welcome.

hacc nixfiles

welcome to hacc nixfiles (haccfiles). this is the code describing our nix-based infrastructure.

structure

  • default.nix: Entrypoint to the config
  • common/: configuration common to all hosts
  • desktop/: desktop-relevant communication
  • modules/: home-grown modules for hacc-specific services
  • nix/: sources files, managed with niv
  • pkgs/: packages we built and don't want to upstream

working with the haccfiles

deploy:

nix build -f . deploy.$hostname && ./result switch

$hostname can be replaced with any hostname or group

committing to haccfiles

  • Golden Rule: DO NOT COMMIT TO MAIN
    • exceptions apply, if you are not sure where to commit, don't commit to main
  • split up commits, every commit is one atomic change
    • e.g. no big "did some changes" but instead "updated service x", "updated service y", "update service z"
  • follow the commit format: "$prefix$place: $change"
    • prefix: one of fixup, nothing
    • place: one of "modules/$module", "$hostname/service", "common/($place)", "pkgs/$pkgs" or "sources"
    • change: describe your change, don't go over the character limit where git starts hiding/wrapping
  • Exception: autogenerated messages (merge commits, reverts, etc)
