# DevOps-Sprint: Review

  Erstellt von Christian Zagrodnick |     06.10.2015  |  Blog

 Our 2015 DevOps sprint is over. It was a great time with all of you. Here is a brief summary of what has happened.

 One huge topic was [NixOS](http://nixos.org) (again!). [Rok Garbas](https://garbas.si/) gave a general introduction and many participants were interested in NixOS. The topics related to NixOS where:

- [pypi2nix](https://github.com/garbas/pypi2nix), to create pure Nix environments directly from PyPI packages. (Rok, Christian Kauhaus)
- Setting up Hydra and a custom NixOS channel for Flying Circus virtual machines (Christian Theune)
- Figuring out how to use nixpkgs *and* custom extensions together. (Answer: we [fork](https://github.com/flyingcircusio/nixpkgs) it and use git merging which also allows easily sending pull requests back).
- Baking a custom NixOS base image into a Vagrant box using [packer](http://www.packer.io/).

A variety of other topics were also investigated:

- The [cusy.io](http://cusy.io/) crew started to integrate [Sentry](https://www.getsentry.com/welcome/) into their system.
- [Arnold](http://www.gateprotect.com/) discussed his ideas around a merge bot, to reliably merge feature branches over multiple git repositories.
- [Hynek](http://variomedia.de/) had a look at [Prometheus](http://prometheus.io/). I don't know what the outcome was, though - he seemed excited at points. :)
- Stefan and Frank built a [batou deployment for mailman 3](https://bitbucket.org/flyingcircus/mailman3.batou). Turns out, mailman 3 is a *bit* different.

Hope to see everyone again, next year!
