Thomas Eizinger 8d652cb96c chore: add nix scripts (#3771)
Some recent changes to the Rust part of the codebase made it quite
difficult to locally build the project due to tauri's heavy dependencies
on WebKitGTK and other native libraries.

I tried working around this on my local (nix) machine and found it quite
difficult. The cleanest way here is to make use of what Nix calls
"devshells" which give you an environment specifically for hacking on
your project.

Unfortunately, these files need to be tracked in version control and
cannot be ignored (at least I've not found a way to do that). Given that
we already have a lot of clutter in our repository, I put them under
`scripts/nix`.

They are generally useful. I also added a `.envrc` file which
automatically launches the dev-shell. As a result, you have a shell
ready to go with all your dependencies as soon as you `cd` into our
repository (assuming you use `direnv` and it is hooked up with your
shell).

I didn't really want to have any of my local setup leak into the repo
because I think apart from me and @conectado, nobody is using nix, thus
I hope this minimal footprint is an okay compromise.

Firezone shell scripts

This directory contains various shell scripts used for development, testing, and deployment of the Firezone product.

Developer Setup

We lint shell scripts in CI. To get your PR to pass, you'll want to ensure your local development environment is set up to lint shell scripts:

  1. Install shfmt:
  2. Install shellcheck:
    • brew install shellcheck on macOS
    • sudo apt-get install shellcheck on Ubuntu

Then just lint and format your shell scripts before you commit:

shfmt -i 4 **/*.sh
shellcheck --severity=warning **/*.sh

You can achieve this more easily by using pre-commit. See CONTRIBUTING.

Editor setup

Scripting tips

  • Use #!/usr/bin/env bash along with set -euo pipefail in general for dev and test scripts.
  • In Docker images and other minimal envs, stick to #!/bin/sh and simply set -eu.
