[![Build status](https://badge.buildkite.com/016bff4b8ae2704a3bbbb0a250784e6692007c582983b6dea7.svg?branch=refs/heads/canon)](https://buildkite.com/tvl/depot)
This repository is the [monorepo][] for the community around [The
Virus Lounge][tvl], containing our personal tools and infrastructure.
Everything in here is built using [Nix][].
A large portion of the software here is very self-referential, meaning that it
exists to sustain the operation of the repository. This is the case because we
partially see this as [an experiment][] in tooling for monorepos.
# Highlights
## Services
* Source code can be viewed primarily via `cgit-pink` on
[code.tvl.fyi](https://code.tvl.fyi), with code search being available through
Livegrep on [grep.tvl.fyi](https://grep.tvl.fyi).
The repository can be cloned using `git` from `https://cl.tvl.fyi/depot`.
* All code in the depot, with the exception of code that is checked in to
individual `//users` folders, needs to be reviewed. We use Gerrit on
[cl.tvl.fyi](https://cl.tvl.fyi) for this.
* Issues are tracked via our own issue tracker on
[b.tvl.fyi](https://b.tvl.fyi). Its source code lives at
[`//web/panettone/`][panettone].
* Smaller todo-list entries which do not warrant a separate issue are listed at
[todo.tvl.fyi](https://todo.tvl.fyi).
* We use Buildkite for CI. Recent builds are listed on
[tvl.fyi/builds](https://tvl.fyi/builds) and pipelines are configured
dynamically via
[`//ops/pipelines`](https://cs.tvl.fyi/depot/-/tree/ops/pipelines).
* A search service that makes TVL services available via textual
shortcuts is available: [atward](https://at.tvl.fyi)
All services that we host are deployed on NixOS machines that we manage. Their
configuration is tracked in `//ops/{modules,machines}`.
## Nix
* [`//nix/readTree`](https://cs.tvl.fyi/depot/-/blob/nix/readTree/README.md)
contains the Nix code which automatically registers projects in our Nix
attribute hierarchy based on their in-tree location
* [`//tools/nixery`](https://cs.tvl.fyi/depot/-/tree/tools/nixery)
contains the source code of [Nixery][], a container registry that
can build images ad-hoc from Nix packages
* `//nix/yants` contains **Y**et **A**nother **N**ix **T**ype **S**ystem, which
we use for a variety of things throughout the repository
* `//nix/buildGo` implements a Nix library that can build Go software in the
style of Bazel's `rules_go`. Go programs in this repository are built using
this library.
* `//nix/buildLisp` implements a Nix library that can build Common Lisp
software. Currently only SBCL is supported. Lisp programs in this repository
are built using this library.
* `//web/blog` and `//web/atom-feed`: A Nix-based static site generator which
generates the web page and Atom feed for [tazj.in](https://tazj.in)
(`//users/tazjin/homepage`) and [tvl.fyi](https://tvl.fyi) (`//web/tvl`)
* `//web/bubblegum` contains a CGI-based web framework written in Nix.
* `//nix/nint`: A shebang-compatible interpreter wrapper for Nix.
* `//tvix` contains initial work towards a modular architecture for Nix.
We have a variety of other tools and libraries in the `//nix` folder which may
be of interest.
## Packages / Libraries
* `//net/alcoholic_jwt` contains an easy-to-use JWT-validation library for Rust
* `//net/crimp` contains a high-level HTTP client using cURL for Rust
* `//tools/emacs-pkgs` contains various useful Emacs libraries, for example:
* `dottime.el` provides [dottime][] in the Emacs modeline
* `nix-util.el` provides editing utilities for Nix files
* `term-switcher.el` is an ivy-function for switching between vterm buffers
* `tvl.el` provides helper functions for interacting with the TVL monorepo
* `//lisp/klatre` provides a grab-bag utility library for Common Lisp
## User packages
Contributors to the repository have user directories under
[`//users`](https://cs.tvl.fyi/depot@canon/-/tree/users), which can be used for
personal or experimental code that does not require review.
Some examples:
* `//users/aspen/xanthous`: A (WIP) TUI RPG, written in Haskell.
* `//users/tazjin/emacs`: tazjin's Emacs & EXWM configuration
* `//users/tazjin/finito`: A persistent finite-state machine library for Rust.
