2019-08-14 refactor(build-image): Extract package set loading into helperVincent Ambo3-64/+84
Some upcoming changes might require the Nix build to be split into multiple separate nix-build invocations of different expressions, thus splitting this out is useful. It also fixes an issue where `build-image/default.nix` might be called in an environment where no Nix channels are configured.
2019-08-14 style: Apply nixfmt to trivial Nix filesVincent Ambo1-11/+9
ALl the ones except for build-image.nix are considered trivial. On the latter, nixfmt makes some useful changes but by-and-large it is not ready for that code yet.
2019-08-14 feat(build-image): Use new image layering algorithm for imagesVincent Ambo1-38/+47
Removes usage of the old layering algorithm and replaces it with the new one. Apart from the new layer layout this means that each layer is now built in a separate derivation, which hopefully leads to better cacheability.
2019-08-14 feat(build-image): Introduce a terrifying hack to build group-layersVincent Ambo2-12/+85
The issue is described in detail in a comment in `build-image/default.nix`, please read it.
2019-08-14 refactor(server): Use wrapper script to avoid path dependencyVincent Ambo4-0/+696
Instead of requiring the server component to be made aware of the location of the Nix builder via environment variables, this commit introduces a wrapper script for the builder that can simply exist on the builders $PATH. This is one step towards a slightly nicer out-of-the-box experience when using `nix-build -A nixery-bin`.
