[Nix-dev] Continuous Integration

[shea at shealevy.com]

IMO putting the logic completely into hydra will be too limiting. If
hydra just gives a nix expression some info about the PRs, then the
nix expression can do arbitrary things (e.g. only build PRs from
trusted users, or that don't change stdenv, or whatever). If it's a
jobset tab then you have to add every possible variation into the
hydra UI.

I was talking to Aszlig about this and it would be best if PRs would
be a tab on the jobset. Since jobset defines the inputs, it would be
tested for PRs against that specific branch.

but currently you have to manually create the jobset corresponding to
the PR and ensure that the relevant jobs are captured by the status
plugin.

If https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/277 [3] is merged, then there
is one step left to get automatic PR management: An input plugin which
fetches information about open PRs on a repo. I'll write it if 277
ever gets in, but without 277 or something like it there's no point.

 Does this mean it can build specific branches (master,
release-16.04..)
 and set the commit status on those commits? ie: doesn't have anything
to
 do with pull request statuses?

 Best,
 Graham
