[Nix-dev] build server

[Tim Barbour]

I would like to set up a nix build server, particularly for use with nixops.
Is there a definitive document about how to do this, including cross-platform
builds (e.g. ARM) ?

Can it be done declaratively, or does one need to set environment variables ?

So far I have found the following documents, each with a different way:

https://nixos.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi
 - distcc approach

https://nixos.org/wiki/Distributed_build
"--- ignore this, look at nix.buildMachines in NixOS Manual"

http://nixos.org/nix/manual/#chap-distributed-builds

http://sandervanderburg.blogspot.com.au/2013/04/setting-up-hydra-build-cluster-for_10.html

I would really like to know the current recommended way.
