How to use the laminar service?

How to use the laminar service?

[Marc Coquand]

Heya, I'm trying to set up a Ci, and as I'm going through the docs I
came across the laminar service.

As far as I understand, with laminar you should have your job scripts in
its home directory, which is by default /var/lib/laminar, under
the child directory /cfg/jobs/X.run. The scripts should be executable
and have permission +X.

However, looking at the configuration, there is no simple way of
defining these jobs.

I tried adding to my config

(extra-special-file "/var/laminar/cfg/jobs/hello.run"
				      (local-file "hello.run"))

As a very simple test, but it did not work, laminar claims to not find
hello.run when i run 

Is there a particular way you are supposed to set up jobs with this service?

Thanks in advance,

I have not put files in services myself yet, but one thing I immediately 
noticed, is that you used the natural path of "/var/laminar/..." .  Try using 
the "/gnu/store/hash-laminar/var/..." by constructing it with, I believe, 
search-input-directory.
