Note the appstoreEnable which will prevent nextcloud form updating
nix-managed apps. This is needed because nextcloud will store an other
version of the app in /var/lib/nextcloud/store-apps and it will
no longer be manageable.
This error occurs if `nextcloud-occ maintenance:install` fails and the
`upgrade` command is attempted to be executed afterwards.
Due to the nature of the installer we can't do much about it, so I guess
it makes sense to add some notes about it. The other notes in the
`Pitfalls`-section are semantically a list of different topics, so I
changed that accordingly now.
Closes#111175
ChangeLog: https://nextcloud.com/changelog/#latest21
* Packaged 21.0.0, test-deployed it to my personal instance and tested
the most basic functionality (`davfs2`-mount, {card,cal}dav sync, file
management).
* Bumped the default version for unstable/21.05 to `nextcloud21`. Since
`nextcloud20` was added after the release of 20.09 (and thus the
default on 20.09 is still `nextcloud19`), it's now needed to upgrade
across two majors.
This is not a problem though since it's possible to upgrade to v20 on
20.09 already and if not, the module will guard the administrator
through the upgrade with eval warnings as it's the case since 20.03.
* Dropped `nextcloud17` attribute and marked `nextcloud18` as EOL.
* It should be made explicit in the eval-error that the CVE only affects
a component which is turned off by default.
* For more clarity, the default version used by the module is noted in
the manual.
Closes#108419
In fd9eb16b24, the option
"services.nextcloud.nginx.enable" has been removed since the module now
exclusively supports nginx only.
Unfortunately, with the option gone from the manual, the link in the
Nextcloud-specific documentation referencing the NixOS option also
became a dead link and thus the manual will no longer build.
I also removed a second reference to this option in the Nextcloud-
specific documentation, which while it doesn't lead to a build error in
the manual is nevertheless a good idea to remove as well to ensure we
don't present outdated information to readers of the manual.

Enhance the heuristics to make sure that a user doesn't accidentally
upgrade across two major versions of Nextcloud (e.g. from v17 to v19).
The original idea/discussion has been documented in the nixpkgs manual[1].
This includes the following changes:
* `nextcloud19` will be selected automatically when having a stateVersion
greater or equal than 20.09. For existing setups, the package has to
be selected manually to avoid accidental upgrades.
* When using `nextcloud18` or older, a warning will be thrown which recommends
upgrading to `nextcloud19`.
* Added a brief paragraph about `nextcloud19` in the NixOS 19.09 release
notes.
* Restart `phpfpm` if the Nextcloud-package (`cfg.package`) changes[2].

It's impossible to move two major-versions forward when upgrading
Nextcloud. This is an issue when comming from 19.09 (using Nextcloud 16)
and trying to upgrade to 20.03 (using Nextcloud 18 by default).
This patch implements the measurements discussed in #82056 and #82353 to
improve the update process and to circumvent similar issues in the
future:
* `pkgs.nextcloud` has been removed in favor of versioned attributes
(currently `pkgs.nextcloud17` and `pkgs.nextcloud18`). With that
approach we can safely backport major-releases in the future to
simplify those upgrade-paths and we can select one of the
major-releases as default depending on the configuration (helpful to
decide whether e.g. `pkgs.nextcloud17` or `pkgs.nextcloud18` should be
used on 20.03 and `master` atm).
* If `system.stateVersion` is older than `20.03`, `nextcloud17` will be
used (which is one major-release behind v16 from 19.09). When using a
package older than the latest major-release available (currently v18),
the evaluation will cause a warning which describes the issue and
suggests next steps.
To make those package-selections easier, a new option to define the
package to be used for the service (namely
`services.nextcloud.package`) was introduced.
* If `pkgs.nextcloud` exists (e.g. due to an overlay which was used to
provide more recent Nextcloud versions on older NixOS-releases), an
evaluation error will be thrown by default: this is to make sure that
`services.nextcloud.package` doesn't use an older version by accident
after checking the state-version. If `pkgs.nextcloud` is added
manually, it needs to be declared explicitly in
`services.nextcloud.package`.
* The `nixos/nextcloud`-documentation contains a
"Maintainer information"-chapter which describes how to roll out new
Nextcloud releases and how to deal with old (and probably unsafe)
versions.
Closes#82056
One of the main problems of the Nextcloud module is that it's currently
not possible to alter e.g. database configuration after the initial
setup as it's written by their imperative installer to a file.
After some research[1] it turned out that it's possible to override all values
with an additional config file. The documentation has been
slightly updated to remain up-to-date, but the warnings should
remain there as the imperative configuration is still used and may cause
unwanted side-effects.
Also simplified the postgresql test which uses `ensure{Databases,Users}` to
configure the database.

The default, which is /tmp, has a few issues associated with it:
One being that it makes it easy for users on the system to spoof a
PostgreSQL server if it's not running, causing applications to connect
to their provided sockets instead of just failing to connect.
Another one is that it makes sandboxing of PostgreSQL and other services
unnecessarily difficult. This is already the case if only PrivateTmp is
used in a systemd service, so in order for such a service to be able to
connect to PostgreSQL, a bind mount needs to be done from /tmp to some
other path, so the service can access it. This pretty much defeats the
whole purpose of PrivateTmp.
We regularily run into issues with this in the past already (one example
would be https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/24317) and with the new
systemd-confinement mode upcoming in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/57519, it makes it even more
tedious to sandbox services.
I've tested this change against all the postgresql NixOS VM tests and
they still succeed and I also grepped through the source tree to replace
other occasions where we might have /tmp hardcoded. Luckily there were
very few occasions.

Part of #49783. NextCloud tracks in its `config.php` the application's
state which makes it hard for the module to modify configurations during
upgrades.
It will take time until the issue is properly fixed, therefore we
decided to warn about this in the manual.
This PR addresses two things:
* Adding a basic example for nextcloud. I figured it to be helpful to
add some basic usage instructions when adding a new manual entry.
Advanced documentation may follow later.
For now this document actively links to the service options, so users
are guided to the remaining options that can be helpful in certain
cases.
* Add a warning about upgrades and manual changes in
`/var/lib/nextcloud`. This will be fixed in the future, but it's
definetely helpful to document the current issues in the manual (as
proposed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/49783#issuecomment-439691127).
