NixOps - Travis CI test failure on Azure private IP PR

In the end, does NixOps support Azure at the moment? If not, how can one help to move this along?


I followed the above mentioned PR#60435 to PR#71797 by @jonringer (Nov 23, 2019) and as far as I could tell all issues have been closed in reference to that.

The reason I’m confused is that

  • the NixOS/nixops repo says that it “Currently supports deployments to AWS, Hetzner, and GCE”,
  • the Executing Tests section does mention Azure,
  • but there is a commit on Apr 02, 2020 saying that “The backend is broken anyway and Azure support should be reimplemented as a plugin.”.

The NixOps manual references PR#1131 but that is from April 17, 2019.

The NixOS images on Azure thread also doesn’t mention whether it is possible to do provisioning with NixOps.
