<makefu> wiki-todo: Q: how to disable single tests in a pythonPackage? A: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/doc/languages-frameworks/python.md#common-issues but where to apply this is a mystery to me, maybe override checkPhase?
<Reaktor|krebs> added todo. check on http://lassul.us/wiki-todo

<ixxie> makefu: where did you move the cookbook article
<ixxie> okay that should be split I think
<ixxie> the phrasebook is not exactly a cookbook
<ixxie> or maybe it is but its a specific cookbook
<makefu> we can split it again, yes
<Mic92> makefu: checkPhase
<makefu> but how can i disable tests when python setup.py test already does the right thing?
<makefu> or maybe it doesn't really matter
<Mic92> makefu: you can replace every instance of python setup.py test with an aquivalent call of pytest. If the directory contains a tests directory this is just `py.test tests`. If you want run tests against the install module: `py.test --pyargs datetime.test`.
<Mic92> oh, ich wusste gar nicht, dass man als maintainer, wenn man Zeug im Browser editiert direkt einen Commit macht statt einen Pullrequest:
<Mic92> ixxie: I merged both, but the article might be big enough to undo this
<ixxie> I was hoping to merge that cheetsheet with https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_to_Debian_phrasebook
<ixxie> because the cookbook I imagine and hope will grow quite a bit
<ixxie> after I finally get around to writing the main articles I wanna systematically look into tutorials, cookbooks, guides and other reference material for each element of the ecosystem
<ixxie> I think this kind of translation phrasebook could count as reference
<samueldr> ixxie: you might want to find a way to present the contents of phrasebooks / cheatsheets in another way than a table
<samueldr> it already is hard to consume, being all way too wide, and with the custom theme coming, it will be worse since it's fixed width
<ixxie> samueldr: yeah good point; tables can scale but probably not to the point of working well on a phone
<ixxie> samueldr: unfortunately I don't think I will have any time for this in the near future; when I focus on the wiki (which I havent had time for lately) I will focus on the core texts and organization
<ixxie> samueldr: I was actually hoping you could find a solution for this sort of problem
<ixxie> maybe a custom table template is in order
<samueldr> n/p, I was pointing it out since you were talking about it
<samueldr> if you were to work on it, to either not work on the presentation, only contents or figure out a way to present it
<samueldr> but yeah, it's in the things to consider siib
<samueldr> soon*
<ixxie> honestly at this point I have no idea what would solve this

<nixoswikibot> [[VPN]] ! https://nixos.wiki/index.php?diff=911&oldid=902&rcid=910 * Makefu * (+1960) /* OpenVPN */ add server
<Mic92> makefu: I would actually call this p2p
<makefu> well vpn means virtual private network. which somewhat matches the software in this article
<Mic92> I mean p2p vpn
<Mic92> ok p2p is actually a different openvpn mode: https://wiki.dn42.us/howto/openvpn
<makefu> we could split the article into p2p vpn and "classic" client-server vpn
<makefu> ah you mean especially for openvpn
<Mic92> yeah, your example is really openvpn in server mode
<makefu> yes true, server mode is the default
