OK, this seems to be the python that Ansible is using. Being called directly without all the PATH mangling that the .ansible-wrapped script does. Which explains why it does not find the kubernetes module...

(Thanks @darix for the hint)

Running the playbook with -v shows me that it is using a completely different python3 from /nix/store/lhpwdis5hkyljz1d200bj1s6g51ljq9k-python3-3.12.8/bin/python3 which does not have the kubernetes module apparently.

No idea how it picks this up, where it takes that information from and how to fix this...

Hardcoding a nix path, even it is just ~/.nix-profile/bin/python3, is of course not feasible if the code is being used on other machines where this is not guaranteed to exist (as outlined in the answers yesterday).

What am I missing?

Fourth and hopefully last round for the #NixOS #Ansible bubble:

Short recap: Having the kubernetes module in the ansible derivation/package is not enough, it needs to also be in the python3 or python312 derivation/package.

Fun fact:
- `which python3` gives me /home/tux.penguin/.nix-profile/bin/python3
- this links to /nix/store/ipwx571dlhxmdf1n1yd8vgqq5ndjnxba-python3-3.12.8-env/bin/python3
- `which -a python3` only gives me this one python, no other binaries found in the PATH with that name

1. Using /nix/store/ipwx571dlhxmdf1n1yd8vgqq5ndjnxba-python3-3.12.8-env/bin/python3 as ansible_python_interpreter works, the kubernetes module is found
2. Using /home/tux.penguin/.nix-profile/bin/python3 for ansible_python_interpreter works
3. Using "{{ lookup('env','HOME') }}/.nix-profile/bin/python3" for ansible_python_interpreter works
4. Using just python3 DOES NOT work?!?!? What the hell? Even if this is resolved (in the shell at least) to the same python3 binary/link in ~/.nix-profile/bin/python3? What the hell?

@codechimp I love #nixos and I would NEVER run #homeassistant in it.
There's a path of least resistance with home assistant, and I will take that road. Hassos is a tiny bit too opinionated (the supervisor is nice but it can be opaque) but smart people maintain it for one and one purpose only, which is to ruh home assistant. And by golly, I will abide!

@Linux what about #NixOS? Based in the Nederlands?

@TheTraveller or switch to a modern OS such as #NixOS or #Guix, write only free software and you only ever might have to back-up some data.

@freespiritlinux alles #nixos

3 Notebooks, 1 Desktop, Raspberry-Pi(s), Homeserver, VPS

@freespiritlinux bei mir läuft nixos auf meinem Alltagsgerät.

@nixos_org #linux #nixos

@demivan Hum interesting thks I honestly just know Talos by name but I would have expected that because #NixOS declarative nature the configuration will be simple, not sure about the moving you talking about.
With #NixOs i can use the GitOps approach tho i think, or at least this is what i am trying to do in the end.

@brodokk I have tried #kubernetes on #NixOS. It is an overkill, IMHO.
I recommend trying out #TalosLinux: https://www.talos.dev/
It is simpler, has less moving parts, and is easier to manage.
For Kubernetes, I recommend setting it up using GitOps approach.

Looks like someone added in support for #nixos #homemanager to the #immich uploader which is great to see! I merged it in so feel free to give it a try all! Should make it easier to get it running now on all the nixos mobile devices.
