Setting `authMode = "Registered"` prevents me from running the `register
<password>` command from inside of `bitlbee`, which I *believe* I need to
run...
I'm having trouble getting PAM auth to work, so I'm temporarily disabling it.
TIL that I can use the following to verify that PAM is properly setup for a
program (e.g. `bitlbee`).
```
pamtester -v bitlbee $(whoami) authenticate
```
...but despite this succeeding, I still cannot use the `identify` command in
`bitlbee` to successfully authenticate. It just tells me "Incorrect password"
even though I'm providing it the same password that I type when doing the
`pamtester` command from above.
Computers!
I'm still not entirely sure what bitlbee does, but I know this: I want as many
messengers in the same place as possible: IRC, Slack, Telegram. @tazjin tells me
that Bitlbee will help me get to the promised land. This is hopefully one step
of many in that direction.
Thankfully @tazjin builds Gemma (an Elm project) with Nix, so I could reference
Gemma's default.nix to help me with mine. Elm problematically attempts to
HTTP-fetch a list of packages to verify my project's dependencies. Because Nix
builds derivations in a sandbox without network access, I need to use some
escape hatches (i.e. NIX_REDIRECTS, LD_PRELOAD,
SYSTEM_CERTIFICATE_PATH). Welp... it's packaged now...
I'm also pointing learnpianochords.app to this project's index.html. It will be
live soon! :)
TODO(wpcarro): Rename "Chord Drill Sergeant" -> "Learn Piano Chords" (KISS)
This value defaults to localhost:3000, which works, but then Gitea
renders "http://localhost:3000/wpcarro/briefcase" as the URL to clone my
briefcase repository.
Gitea's announcement notes explain some of the benefits of Gitea over
Gogs:
https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/
Also, I never configured Gogs such that I could use it, so the cost of
switching from Gogs to Gitea was basically zero.
Lorri does not cleanly integrate with my corporate device, which cannot run
NixOS. To expose dependencies to Emacs buffers, I will use nix-buffer.el, which
reads its values from dir-locals.nix. To easily expose dependencies from my
existing shell.nix files into dir-locals.nix, I wrote a Nix utility function.
- Create ./website directory
- Add a sitemap to wpcarro.dev
- Move covid-uk directory to sandbox directory
TODO: Next sandbox, blog, and learn in the website directory
Right now my website is serving at sandbox.wpcarro.dev, but I would rather
people view it at sandbox.wpcarro.dev/covid-19.
I previously tried to accomplish this with the following Nginx configuration:
```nix
locations."/covid-19" = {
root = briefcase.covid-uk;
}
```
I am now trying `alias = ...` instead of `root = ...`. I got the idea from this
SO question, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10631933/nginx-static-file-serving-confusion-with-root-alias.
- Prefer hosting on sandbox.wpcarro.dev; I would prefer to host it at
sandbox.wpcarro.dev/covid-19, but I haven't figure out how to use Nginx to do
serve locations like /covid-19 yet.
- Splice the src directory: When I develop locally and index.html exists within
./src, I cannot access ./node_modules because ./node_modules is in a parent
directory. I could fix this if I used a bundler like Parcel or Webpack, but I
do not want to set that up at this time.
- Introduce Tailwind for CSS. This complicates my build a bit as well. For now,
I'm including output.css even though ideally I should not version-control this
file. I haven't figured out how to `yarn install` and run commands like `npx
tailwindcss build styles.css -o output.css` in a Nix derivation yet. Hopefully
I will learn and refactor this.
- Add some content about why I made this chart
- Add some content about some of my covid-19 predictions
- Add a footer to the webpage
- Delete timeseries.json and prefer fetching the published data instead
I was having trouble tracking the growth of corona virus cases in the UK.
Thankfully someone is publishing some daily COVID data as JSON. I downloaded
that data manually and plotted it using the chart.js library as a programming
exercise with Mimi.
Now I'm attempting to deploy to https://wpcarro.dev/covid-uk.
TODO(wpcarro): Prefer the live API data instead my soon-to-be-stale downloaded.
With this simple change, Nix should copy the static directory and all of its
contents to /nix/store and return the path to that directory.
See TODO for more what I would have liked to do ideally.
readTree uses the output attribute set of default.nix as the value for
nixos.socrates, which disables me from resolving nixos.socrates.rebuild since
there is no rebuild attribute in the output attribute set from default.nix.
If I rename default.nix -> configuration.nix, I can resolve
nixos.socrates.{configuration,hardware,rebuild}.
