nixos/matrix-synapse: fix type of settings.url_preview_url_blacklist
Actually, it's supposed to be `listOf (attrsOf str)` because each
list-item can match against multiple properties from `urlsplit`[1]. In
fact, `listOf str` breaks URL previews at runtime:

    Sep 14 15:03:47 soost synapse[1100355]: synapse.http.server: [GET-116] Failed handle request via 'PreviewUrlResource': <XForwardedForRequest at 0x7f691bd5f730 method='GET' uri='/_matrix/media/r0/preview_url?url=<redacted>' clientproto='HTTP/1.1' site='8448'>

                                                for attrib, pattern in entry.items():
                                            AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'items'

To make sure that people aren't confused when upgrading their configs, I
decided to work with `types.coercedTo` to "pretend" accepting the old
type signature, but then throwing an error explaining what to do (and
rejecting the broken configuration).

NixOS

NixOS is a Linux distribution based on the purely functional package management system Nix. More information can be found at https://nixos.org/nixos and in the manual in doc/manual.

Testing changes

You can add new module to your NixOS configuration file (usually its /etc/nixos/configuration.nix). And do sudo nixos-rebuild test -I nixpkgs=<path to your local nixpkgs folder> --fast.

Reviewing contributions

When changing the bootloader installation process, extra care must be taken. Grub installations cannot be rolled back, hence changes may break peoples installations forever. For any non-trivial change to the bootloader please file a PR asking for review, especially from @edolstra.

Module updates

Module updates are submissions changing modules in some ways. These often contains changes to the options or introduce new options.

Reviewing process:

  • Ensure that the module maintainers are notified.
    • CODEOWNERS will make GitHub notify users based on the submitted changes, but it can happen that it misses some of the package maintainers.
  • Ensure that the module tests, if any, are succeeding.
  • Ensure that the introduced options are correct.
    • Type should be appropriate (string related types differs in their merging capabilities, loaOf and string types are deprecated).
    • Description, default and example should be provided.
  • Ensure that option changes are backward compatible.
    • mkRenamedOptionModuleWith provides a way to make option changes backward compatible.
  • Ensure that removed options are declared with mkRemovedOptionModule
  • Ensure that changes that are not backward compatible are mentioned in release notes.
  • Ensure that documentations affected by the change is updated.

Sample template for a module update review is provided below.

##### Reviewed points

- [ ] changes are backward compatible
- [ ] removed options are declared with `mkRemovedOptionModule`
- [ ] changes that are not backward compatible are documented in release notes
- [ ] module tests succeed on ARCHITECTURE
- [ ] options types are appropriate
- [ ] options description is set

New modules

New modules submissions introduce a new module to NixOS.

Reviewing process:

  • Ensure that the module tests, if any, are succeeding.
  • Ensure that the introduced options are correct.
    • Type should be appropriate (string related types differs in their merging capabilities, loaOf and string types are deprecated).
    • Description, default and example should be provided.
  • Ensure that module meta field is present
    • Maintainers should be declared in meta.maintainers.
    • Module documentation should be declared with meta.doc.
  • Ensure that the module respect other modules functionality.
    • For example, enabling a module should not open firewall ports by default.

Sample template for a new module review is provided below.
