now nix-doc-munge will not introduce whitespace changes when it replaces
manpage references with the MD equivalent.
no change to the manpage, changes to the HTML manual are whitespace only.
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
Transform exit handlers of the form
trap cleanup EXIT [INT] [TERM] [QUIT] [HUP] [ERR]
(where cleanup is idempotent)
to
trap cleanup EXIT
This fixes a common bash antipattern.
Each of the above signals causes the script to exit. For each signal,
bash first handles the signal by running `cleanup` and then runs
`cleanup` again when handling EXIT.
(Exception: `vscode/*` prevents the second run of `cleanup` by removing
the trap in cleanup`).
Simplify the cleanup logic by just trapping exit, which is always run
when the script exits due to any of the above signals.
Note: In case of borgbackup, the exit handler is not idempotent, but just
trapping EXIT guarantees that it's only run once.
borg is able to process stdin during backups when backing up the special path -,
which can be very useful for backing up things that can be streamed (eg database
dumps, zfs snapshots).
As the only consequence of isSystemUser is that if the uid is null then
it's allocated below 500, if a user has uid = something below 500 then
we don't require isSystemUser to be set.
Motivation: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/112647
* creating a local backup
* creating a borgbackup server
* backing up to a borgbackup server
* hints about the Vorta graphical desktop application
* Added documentation about Vorta desktop client
Tested the examples locally and with my borgbase.com account.
Currently to run borg job manually, you have to use systemctl:
```
$ systemctl start borgbackup-job-jobname.service
```
This commit makes wrappers around borg jobs available in $PATH, which have
BORG_REPO and connection args set correctly:
```
$ borg-job-jobname list
$ borg-job-jobname mount ::jobname-archive-2019-12-25T00:01:29 /mnt/some-path
$ borg-job-jobname create ::test /some/path
```

When having backup jobs that persist to a removable device like an
external HDD, the directory shouldn't be created by an activation script
as this might confuse auto-mounting tools such as udiskie(8).
In this case the job will simply fail, with the former approach
udiskie ran into some issues as the path `/run/media/ma27/backup` was
already there and owned by root.
