Some improvements can be made, such as avoiding the with expressions (https://nix.dev/guides/best-practices#with-scopes), possibly using recursiveUpdate (https://nix.dev/guides/best-practices#updating-nested-attribute-sets) and other nitpicks.

I will look into this.

It's always great to see someone's first contribution is a massive NixOS module. Great work on this!

The following commits should be squashed:

• archtika: fix allow-import-from-derivation error for npm ➜ archtika: init at 1.0.1
• nixos/manual: add archtika module to 25.05 release notes ➜ nixos/archtika: init module
• archtika: fix formatting, add module description, remove trailing whitespace and archtika: refactor package and module definitions ➜ Both the package and module commit, as appropriate.

Hi @Lassulus , seeing that you recently merged another pull request (#365006), could you please check this one? As far as I can see it should be ready.

[thiloho]

I have also tested all the functionality again using the given steps and using a local setup in the repository, see https://github.com/archtika/archtika/blob/main/nix/module.nix

I think what @SigmaSquadron was suggesting is that you pull all the pieces into individual derivations as /pkgs/by-name/ar/archtika/{package,service,api,webapp}.nix then import them into package.nix with let web-app = callPackage ./webapp.nix {}. (You can override or add parameters to the call as needed.)

As you approach the finish line, there's some git cleanup to do:

1. Merging master pulled in some extraneous information (did you mean to add two names to maintainers?). So let me walk you through the nixpkgs way (from CONTRIBUTING.md):

git checkout archtika-pkg
# Back out the merge
git reset --hard HEAD~1
# Rebase onto master, nixpkgs-style
git checkout master
git fetch upstream master
git checkout archtika-pkg
git rebase master
# Fix any merge conflicts before pushing
git push --force-with-lease

2. The maintainers list update should only contain your entry. I think you picked up someone else's in merging master. Step 1 should have fixed that.

[thiloho]

Thanks, yes, I can remove the last merge commit by force pushing, I just did that on GitHub to fix a merge conflict.

As for the individual derivations suggested earlier, there could be two other files, web-app.nix and api.nix, which would then be used via callPackage, but I doubt that it is really necessary to split those very few lines in the one package file.

I just wanted to mention this PR on Matrix again, as nothing has happened here for two weeks since I made the post in the already reviewed Discourse thread. And I think this should be ready to be merged.

Reviews seem to be taking longer than usual lately. The automation we usually see doesn't seem to be working and that may be increasing reviewers' workload.

Since you're on Discourse, try pinging Sandro with a PM.
