This is the only way to assign devices rather than fixed gpt partitions.
Without reading the code it's not very obvious how disko actually
assigns devices to zpools.
Fixes#900
This was caused by https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/354535
originally. The breaking changes introduced there have been resolved by
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/360413, but one addition survived,
which was the line `source $stdenv/setup`.
Because we used `>` instead of `>>`, `saved-env` was overwritten, so
even with the second PR, the script failed with the following error:
/nix/store/pw...ykc-vm-run-stage2: line 16: stdenv: unbound variable
Once this and the second PR mentioned above are merged, #903 will be
unblocked.
It seems that there is a difference between how `pkgs` and `lib` get
passed to NixOS modules: `pkgs` is the unmodified original, `lib` is the
final version after overrides etc.
This causes `pkgs.lib.version` to be `24.11git` in some cases, while
`lib.version` is `24.11.20241123.0c58267`.
Maybe this can be fixed in nixpkgs? Either way, this change fixes that
issue.
Fixes#904
A config like
```nix
{
vdev = [
{
mode = "mirror";
members = [ "data1" "data2" ];
}
{
members = [ "data3" ];
}
];
}
```
would result in the following command:
```shell
zpool create -f <name> mirror /dev/data1 /dev/data2 /dev/data3
```
which would result in a single vdev with a 3-way mirror, rather than a
vdev with a 2-way mirror and a second vdev with a single disk. By
reordering the vdevs to handle those with an empty mode first we
transform this into:
```shell
zpool create -f <name> /dev/data3 mirror /dev/data1 /dev/data2
```
which does have the desired outcome.
The type keyword was included before every vdev:
```shell
zpool create -f <name> /dev/sda log mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc log mirror /dev/sdd /dev/sde
```
but this is incorrect and should instead be:
```shell
zpool create -f <name> /dev/sda log mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc mirror /dev/sdd /dev/sde
```
The new confirmation dialogue is only shown for the new outputs
introduced in the previous commits. The existing outputs do not change
behavior to keep backwards compatibility.
Fixes#725
This adds new outpus like `format` and `formatNoDeps` which
are compatible with `nix run` so you can do something like
nix run .#nixosConfigurations.myhostname.config.system.build.formatNoDeps
as originally intended in #78, or add disko to your configuration like
environment.systemPackages = [
config.system.build.format
config.system.build.mount
config.system.build.destroyFormatMount
];
as mentioned in #454.
Fixes part of #454
Supersedes #78
It also deprecates mode `disko` in favor of the clearer
`destroy,format,mount` and adds `format,mount` to allow easier in-place
updates.
Previously, an error like
error: function 'anonymous lambda' called with unexpected argument 'customQemu'
at /nix/store/lbqj1cndic4121whnx8xm0jgb1c8x4xx-source/pkgs/build-support/vm/default.nix:1:1:
was printed when trying to evaluate `config.system.build.vmWithDisko` or
`config.system.build.diskoImagesScript` with nixpkgs 24.05 (and below).
This argument was added in
65c851cd75,
so technically the minimum version is 24.11.20240708.65c851c. However,
`versionAtLeast` only compares versions alphabetically, so the comparison's
result will be incorrect for other commits made on the same day.
Instead, we compare against 24.11.20240709, which is the next day.
This means this function returns false for some commits that DO support the
customQemu argument, but if it returns true, we can be 100% certain that this
is correct, and we can pass the customQemu argument to vmTools without an
evaluation error.
Fixes#850
lvcreate -l does not accept a '100%' parameter which currently leads to a crash. THis change automatically changes `100%` to `100%FREE` leading to the intended behavior.
because it breaks evaluation on darwin with at least nix 2.18.
Evaluating `lib.splitString "" "foo"` throws the following:
`error: invalid regular expression ''`.
We could avoid that by using lib.stringToCharacters, but as
we are mapping over it anyway, lib.stringAsChars seems to be
an even better fit.
I tested the examples in hexEscapeUdevSymlinks docstring manually
in a nix repl.
Fixes#130
This should fix pretty much all cases where spaces or other special
characters would break disko due to improper quoting. I searched for all
instances of '.label', '.device' and '.name', so I believe I caught
whatever I could.
In some cases I changed single quotes to double quotes for consistency.
I know we don't usually fix bugs in the legacy table type, but it was so
easy I couldn't resist.
For disk type, option name used in disk partlabel
naming should be short. While setting a specialized
option imageName allow us to create image with long name
without side-effects.
Some users will have `boot.zfs.forceImportRoot = false;` in their
configurations which conflicts with `boot.zfs.forceImportAll = true;`,
so we set it to `true` to match.
