<gchristensen> hi friends
<lassulus> hiヾ(´∇`○)
<gchristensen> I'm on a mission to write some docs today, and the first thing I'd like to do is a thing on pinning nixpkgs. where should I stick that?
<lassulus> I would put it on an extra page "pinning nixpkgs" and maybe link to it in the FAQ
orivej has joined #nixos-wiki
<gchristensen> can do
<gchristensen> thank you, lassulus!
<lassulus> your welcome, we are thanking you for your contribution!
<gchristensen> should I make a subpage, like FAQ/Pinning_Nixpkgs ?
<lassulus> sounds good to me
<gchristensen> cool, now: learn how to write wiki format :D
<nixoswikibot> [[FAQ/Pinning Nixpkgs]] !N https://nixos.wiki/index.php?oldid=1794&rcid=1816 * Grahamc * (+574) First load, testing newlines.

<nixoswikibot> [[FAQ/Pinning Nixpkgs]] ! https://nixos.wiki/index.php?diff=1795&oldid=1794&rcid=1817 * Grahamc * (+2877) Complete the page on pinning and patching Nixpkgs.
<gchristensen> how does taht look, lassulus?
<Mic92> gchristensen: is your pinning approach similar to the one shown at the last nixcon?
<gchristensen> yeah, basically the same
<Mic92> gchristensen: maybe you can also include a fetchpatch example that pulls the patch from github (from an open pull request).
<lassulus> gchristensen: look good, Maybe a very short example how to use it inside your configuration.nix
<Mic92> as an example
<gchristensen> hmm unfortunately the circumstances by which I'm writing these docs, I'm not able to make those improvements right now :$
<lassulus> then it's fine for now, I can look into it later :)
<gchristensen> ok :D thanks

<gchristensen> is there a way for the FAQ to automatically enumerate the subpages?
orivej has joined #nixos-wiki
<Mic92> samueldr or ixxie might have more insights on mediawiki's template system
<fadenb> perhaps https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:List_subpages but did not try it yet
<fadenb> hmm, no we do not yet have that template included
<nixoswikibot> [[FAQ/Bare Metal Deployment]] !N https://nixos.wiki/index.php?oldid=1796&rcid=1818 * Grahamc * (+2611) Created page with "When it comes down to it, Nix is just a fairly basic build tool, and Nixpkgs brings some fancy build helpers. NixOS's [https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html#sec-writing-m..."

<gchristensen> are there any topics that would be especially helpful to cover? there are some things that are easy for me to document and others which are not, for (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ reasons
<samueldr> gchristensen: not yet
<samueldr> it can enumerate sub-pages
<samueldr> BUT, it can't auto-transclude them (IIRC)
<samueldr> there are modules for mediawiki that does that, which I want to use
<samueldr> this will be achievable once we have the configuration shared, by fadenb, we'll be more able to do fancy stuff needing external code since it'll be a PR away
<gchristensen> cool
<samueldr> for a simple list of subpages, it is possible though
<samueldr> the subpages section lists subpages for NixOS on ARM
<nixoswikibot> [[FAQ/Private Cache Proxy]] !N https://nixos.wiki/index.php?oldid=1799&rcid=1821 * Grahamc * (+1474) Provide an example Nginx configuration for transparent cache proxies.
<gchristensen> ^ if these are misfiled or unwanted, I don't mind them being moved / removed :)
<samueldr> if anything it would be moved, but that would be a whole FAQ thing and not a single item

<Mic92> gchristensen: we need this for our next install party on the chaos communication congress 35c3
<Mic92> makefu: do you have a configuration.nix version of this snippet
<Mic92> ?
<gchristensen> Mic92: was that last one for me?
<Mic92> gchristensen: no, I know makefu has also set up a transparent nginx cache proxy in the past.
<gchristensen> ahh
