{{note| Hydra is intended to be used by Nix/NixOS package developers; it is not needed to simply use NixOS.}}

Hydra is a tool for continuous integration testing and software release that uses a purely functional language to describe build jobs and their dependencies. Continuous integration is a simple technique to improve the quality of the software development process. An automated system continuously or periodically checks out the source code of a project, builds it, runs tests, and produces reports for the developers. Thus, various errors that might accidentally be committed into the code base are automatically caught.

The module will automatically enable postgresql if you do not change the <code>services.hydra.dbi</code> option. Database layout will be created automatically by the Hydra service, however keep in mind that some state will be stored in the database and a complete stateless configuration is currently not possible - do your backups.

The module will automatically enable [[PostgreSQL|postgresql]] if you do not change the <code>services.hydra.dbi</code> option.
