Declarative projects
Declarative Projects
--------------------
Hydra supports declaratively configuring a project\'s jobsets. This
configuration can be done statically, or generated by a build job.
> **Note**
>
> Hydra will treat the project\'s declarative input as a static definition
> if and only if the spec file contains a dictionary of dictionaries. If
> the value of any key in the spec is not a dictionary, it will treat the
> spec as a generated declarative spec.
### Static, Declarative Projects
Hydra supports declarative projects, where jobsets are configured from a
static JSON document in a repository.
To configure a static declarative project, take the following steps:
1. Create a Hydra-fetchable source like a Git repository or local path.
2. In that source, create a file called `spec.json`, and add the
specification for all of the jobsets. Each key is jobset and each
value is a jobset\'s specification. For example:
``` {.json}
{
"nixpkgs": {
"enabled": 1,
"hidden": false,
"description": "Nixpkgs",
"nixexprinput": "nixpkgs",
"nixexprpath": "pkgs/top-level/release.nix",
"checkinterval": 300,
"schedulingshares": 100,
"enableemail": false,
"emailoverride": "",
"keepnr": 3,
"inputs": {
"nixpkgs": {
"type": "git",
"value": "git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git master",
"emailresponsible": false
}
}
},
"nixos": {
"enabled": 1,
"hidden": false,
"description": "NixOS: Small Evaluation",
"nixexprinput": "nixpkgs",
"nixexprpath": "nixos/release-small.nix",
"checkinterval": 300,
"schedulingshares": 100,
"enableemail": false,
"emailoverride": "",
"keepnr": 3,
"inputs": {
"nixpkgs": {
"type": "git",
"value": "git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git master",
"emailresponsible": false
}
}
}
}
```
3. Create a new project, and set the project\'s declarative input type,
declarative input value, and declarative spec file to point to the
source and JSON file you created in step 2.
Hydra will create a special jobset named `.jobsets`. When the `.jobsets`
jobset is evaluated, this static specification will be used for
configuring the rest of the project\'s jobsets.
### Generated, Declarative Projects
Hydra also supports generated declarative projects, where jobsets are
configured automatically from specification files instead of being
managed through the UI. A jobset specification is a JSON object
containing the configuration of the jobset, for example:
``` {.json}
{
"enabled": 1,
"hidden": false,
"description": "js",
"nixexprinput": "src",
"nixexprpath": "release.nix",
"checkinterval": 300,
"schedulingshares": 100,
"enableemail": false,
"emailoverride": "",
"keepnr": 3,
"inputs": {
"src": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/shlevy/declarative-hydra-example.git", "emailresponsible": false },
"nixpkgs": { "type": "git", "value": "git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git release-16.03", "emailresponsible": false }
}
}
```
To configure a declarative project, take the following steps:
1. Create a jobset repository in the normal way (e.g. a git repo with a
`release.nix` file, any other needed helper files, and taking any
kind of hydra input), but without adding it to the UI. The nix
expression of this repository should contain a single job, named
`jobsets`. The output of the `jobsets` job should be a JSON file
containing an object of jobset specifications. Each member of the
object will become a jobset of the project, configured by the
corresponding jobset specification.
2. In some hydra-fetchable source (potentially, but not necessarily,
the same repo you created in step 1), create a JSON file containing
a jobset specification that points to the jobset repository you
created in the first step, specifying any needed inputs
(e.g. nixpkgs) as necessary.
3. In the project creation/edit page, set declarative input type,
declarative input value, and declarative spec file to point to the
source and JSON file you created in step 2.
Hydra will create a special jobset named `.jobsets`, which whenever
evaluated will go through the steps above in reverse order:
1. Hydra will fetch the input specified by the declarative input type
and value.
2. Hydra will use the configuration given in the declarative spec file
as the jobset configuration for this evaluation. In addition to any
inputs specified in the spec file, hydra will also pass the
`declInput` argument corresponding to the input fetched in step 1 and
the `projectName` argument containing the project\'s name.
3. As normal, hydra will build the jobs specified in the jobset
repository, which in this case is the single `jobsets` job. When
that job completes, hydra will read the created jobset
specifications and create corresponding jobsets in the project,
disabling any jobsets that used to exist but are not present in the
current spec.
