I wanted to discuss if it makes sense to put the gitlab runner podman-execturor which serves as a more complex VM test with a quite elaborate runner setup (podman sandboxed, daemon runs in podman as well, 3 image job types etc, its used in production)
into the nix-community project as a demonstration on how one would run such a Gitlab Runner setup.
The more complex VM test is still in nixpkgs and on the maintenance PR
I cannot go forward because there are concerns for maintainability.
So the question is:
- Could I take out the complex VM test and maintain it in
gitlab-runner-nixinnix-community? - Docs: maybe leave a link in the current NixOS documentation which points to the example in
nix-communityrepo. - Beeing able for more users to contribute and upstream different configuration examples or maintain the original etc.
