NUR: Updates can now be pushed

Announcements

Before updates are propagated in NUR, we check for evaluation errors.
Until now we checked for updates on a daily base using a travis cron job.
Now there is an update service to trigger updates more frequently: https://github.com/nix-community/NUR#update-nurs-lock-file-after-updating-your-repository

Also checkout the source code here: GitHub - nix-community/nur-update: Service to trigger updates of the NUR repository [maintainer=@Mic92]

Very nice, I was just thinking about exactly that this morning.

Seems to work nicely, thanks for implementing this :slight_smile:

In case anyone is interested, this what a travis file calling the update hook during deploy could look like: https://github.com/kampka/nix-packages/blob/master/.travis.yml
