2020-08-20	Support build-briefcase.sh	William Carroll	1	-0/+6
	For now, I'm supporting two CI pipelines: - build-socrates - build-briefcase Conceptually, build-briefcase should cover what build-socrates does now, but eventually I would like build-socrates to call `switch-to-configuration` so that all of my websites, etc. stay fresh.
2020-08-20	Disable failing goals/default.nix	William Carroll	1	-1/+2
	Disabling failing packages until I can get a working CI build.
2020-08-20	Revise previous opinions about absolute paths GT <bracket-notation>	William Carroll	1	-1/+2
	Unforeseen problem: `buildkite-agent` runs its builds in a separate directory, so if I want the `nix-build` command to build the newly checked out code, I need to set <briefcase> to the CWD.
2020-08-20	Attempt nix-build instead of nixos-rebuild switch	William Carroll	1	-6/+4
	I've encountered a few problems with attempting to support nixos-rebuild: - the activation step requires `sudo` privileges - the `buildkite-agent` runs on the same machine, socrates, that is rebuilding itself. This means that when the activation step runs, it will attempt to restart `buildkite-agent` when the agent is still working I'm slowly removing places in my nix code that rely on '<bracket>' notation, so that I no longer depend on NIX_PATH being set. I still have more work to do. {covid-uk,sandbox}/default.nix are breaking when I attempt to run my build-socrates.sh script locally, so I'm temporarily disabling them until I can get CI working as I expect.
2020-08-20	Prefer nixos-rebuild to the rebuild script	William Carroll	1	-4/+6
	The rebuild script calls sudo, which I won't need as I test running buildkite-agent prefixed with `sudo` or as the root user.
2020-08-20	Debug $USER in build-socrates.sh	William Carroll	1	-1/+1
	Attempting to see what $USER the buildkite-agent is when it runs.
2020-08-20	Debug build-socrates.sh	William Carroll	1	-1/+4
	- using `set -euo pipefail` for setting recommended failure-modes - using `set -x` and `echo "$PATH"` to debug my failing build Sidenote: I find BuildKite's documentation quite helpful!
2020-08-20	Attempt to build Socrates using BuildKite	William Carroll	1	-0/+3
	Let's see what happens...
