2019-10-09Remove some redundant initializationEelco Dolstra
2019-10-09Remove world-writability from per-user directoriesEelco Dolstra
'nix-daemon' now creates subdirectories for users when they first connect. Fixes #509 (CVE-2019-17365). Should also fix #3127.
2019-10-08Make preexisting Nix install a warning, not a failureMatthew Bauer
In the multi-user install script, we originally made sure no previous references to Nix existed. This prevented any previous installs from contaminating the new install. However, some users need the ability to repair their existing Nix installation without uninstalling all references to Nix. This change allows users with existing Nix installations to use the installer, while still outputing a warning message on the dangers of this. As a result, the multi-user install script work much more like the single-user install script has worked in the past. This is a requirement for macOS Catalina users now that /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plisg is not managed by the Nix store. If there is ever a change to the .plist, all users will need to rerun this install script to get the new changes. Otherwise, changes to the launch daemon will require manual interventions.

install-multi-user: Detect and fail lack of systemd separately
2019-08-22Allow empty /nix directory in multi-user installerMatthew Bauer
With macOS catalina, we can no longer modify the root system volume (#2925). macOS provides a system configuration file in synthetic.conf(5) to create empty root directories. This can be used to mount /nix to a separate volume. As a result, this directory will need to already exist prior to installation. Instead, check for /nix/store and /nix/var for a live Nix installation.

install-multi-user: reduce max-jobs from 32 to 1

install script: don't abort when "nix-channel --update" fails
2019-03-27install-multi-user: remove unneeded settings from nix.confBjørn Forsman
Hardcoding the "max-jobs" and "cores" settings in nix.conf at install time, to the same value as Nix' built-in default, makes little sense to me.
2019-03-27install-multi-user: reduce max-jobs from 32 to 1Bjørn Forsman
Having max-jobs = 32 ($NIX_USER_COUNT is hardcoded to that value) may severely overload the machine. The nix.conf(5) manual page says max-jobs defaults to 1, so let's use that value. NOTE: Both max-jobs and cores are now being set to their default value, so they can be removed alltogether.
2019-03-26install-multi-user: Detect and fail lack of systemd separatelySamuel Dionne-Riel
Otherwise, the user is shown: ``` Sorry, I don't know what to do on Linux ``` Which is... not exactly right.

scripts: remove default 'sandbox = false' from multi-user installer
2019-02-23scripts: remove default 'sandbox = false' from multi-user installerAustin Seipp
Sandboxing is now enabled by default on Linux, but is still disabled on macOS. However, the installer always turned it off to ensure consistent behavior. Remove this default configuration, so we fall back to the default platform-specific value. Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <aseipp@pobox.com>

the nix-store --init command is a noop apparently
2019-02-20install script: don't abort when "nix-channel --update" failsBjørn Forsman
Instead, print a message about what happened and tell the user what can be done (run "[sudo -i] nix-channel --update nixpkgs" again at a later time). This change allows installing Nix when you're offline. Since the multi-user installer is so verbose, the message isn't printed until the end. Fixes issue #2650 ("installation without internet connection").
2018-05-30install-multi-user: support 'set -u' runs, closes #2193Graham Christensen
2018-05-25install-multi-user: don't force NIX_SSL_CERT_FILEGraham Christensen
Following the lead of the single user installer, if NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE is explicitly set prior to running, accept the user-provided version.
2018-03-30macos: Handle when a build user doesn't have a user IDGraham Christensen
2018-03-30Use a looser comparison for the 'user note' checkGraham Christensen
We use grep instead of an equality check because it is difficult to extract _just_ the user's note, instead it is prefixed with some plist junk. This was causing the user note to always be set, even if there was no reason for it.
2018-03-30Check for the existence of a profile target before seeing if it mentions NixGraham Christensen
Grep would ignore files that didn't exist, but would complain about files in a directory if the directory didn't exist. Simply check for the directory first, prior to grepping it.
2018-03-29Expand the multi-user installer to support Linuxes with systemdGraham Christensen
- darwin installer: delete hardware report, not necessary - moves os-specific code from the darwin installer to to `poly_*` functions - adds profile.d support to the profile targets, which automatically handles many distros which don't have a /etc/bashrc but do have an /etc/profile.d - /bin/bash -> /usr/bin/env bash - document why each excluded shellcheck check is excluded - rename the multi-user to Daemon-based
