When lib overrides were used, before this commit, they would not be made
available in the configuration evaluation of nixosTest's nodes.
Sample code:
``` nix
let
pkgs = import ./. {
overlays = [
(new: old: {
lib = old.lib.extend (self: super: {
sorry_dave = builtins.trace "There are no pod bay doors" "sorry dave";
});
})
];
};
in
pkgs.testers.nixosTest {
name = "demo lib overlay";
nodes = {
machine = { lib, ... }: {
environment.etc."got-lib-overlay".text = lib.sorry_dave;
};
};
testScript = { nodes }:
''
start_all()
machine.succeed('grep dave /etc/got-lib-overlay')
'';
}
```
Adds a new option to the virtualisation modules that enables specifying explicitly named network interfaces in QEMU VMs.
The existing `virtualisation.vlans` option is still supported for cases where the name of the network interface is irrelevant.
By adding this option indirection, a test can declare all by itself
that it needs a custom nixpkgs. This is a more convenient way of
going about this when the caller of the test framework receives a
`node.pkgs` unconditionally.
This allows modules that declare their class to be checked.
While that's not most user modules, frameworks can take advantage
of this by setting declaring the module class for their users.
That way, the mistake of importing a module into the wrong hierarchy
can be reported more clearly in some cases.
...for explicitly named network interfaces
This reverts commit 6ae3e7695e.

Some of the tests fail or time out after the merge.

following the plan in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/189318#discussion_r961764451
also adds an activation script to print the warning during activation
instead of during build, otherwise folks using the new CLI that hides
build logs by default might never see the warning.
Provide a window during which both solutions are valid without
warnings, in order to fight warning fatigue, and not to push 3rd
party repo maintainers to add unnecessary compat code.
Fixes the problem introduced by 12b3066aae
which caused nixos/release.nix to return the wrong attributes, while
intending to only affect nixos/lib's runTest.
This also removes callTest from the test options, because callTest is
only ever invoked by all-tests.nix.
Before this, it relied on being able to `imports` from the `name`
module argument, which wasn't really necessary and required a
potentially quite breaking change. We can revert that now.
This is a decomposition of the testing-python.nix and build-vms.nix
files into modules.
By refactoring the glue, we accomplish the following:
- NixOS tests can now use `imports` and other module system features.
- Network-wide test setup can now be reusable; example:
- A setup with all VMs configured to use a DNS server
- Split long, slow tests into multiple tests that import a
common module that has most of the setup.
- Type checking for the test arguments
- (TBD) "generated" options reference docs
- Aspects that had to be wired through all the glue are now in their
own files.
- Chief example: interactive.nix.
- Also: network.nix
In rewriting this, I've generally stuck as close as possible to the
existing code; copying pieces of logic and rewiring them, without
changing the logic itself.
I've made two exceptions to this rule
- Introduction of `extraDriverArgs` instead of hardcoded
interactivity logic.
- Incorporation of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/144110
in testScript.nix.
I might revert the latter and split it into a new commit.
According to https://repology.org/repository/nix_unstable/problems, we have a
lot of packages that have http links that redirect to https as their homepage.
This commit updates all these packages to use the https links as their
homepage.
The following script was used to make these updates:
```
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq '.[] | .problem' -r \
| rg 'Homepage link "(.+)" is a permanent redirect to "(.+)" and should be updated' --replace 's@$1@$2@' \
| sort | uniq > script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
These (outdated) derivations are only used by nixos/lib/testing.nix.
If we want to provide jquery & jquery-ui packages this is better done
in nodePackages.
