Collection and organisation of information about Bulgarian schools by iivanov

Description

To achieve this it will be necessary:

• Collect/download raw data from various government and non-governmental organizations
• Clean up raw data and organise it in some kind database.
• Create tool to make queries easy.
• Or perhaps dump all data into AI and ask questions in natural language.

Goals

By selecting particular school information like this will be provided:

• School scores on national exams.
• School scores from the external evaluations exams.
• School town, municipality and region.
• Employment rate in a town or municipality.
• Average health of the population in the region.

Resources

Some of these are available only in bulgarian.

• https://danybon.com/klasazia
• https://nvoresults.com/index.html
• https://ri.mon.bg/active-institutions
• https://www.nsi.bg/nrnm/ekatte/archive

Results

• Information about all Bulgarian schools with their scores during recent years cleaned and organised into SQL tables
• Information about all Bulgarian villages, cities, municipalities and districts cleaned and organised into SQL tables
• Information about all Bulgarian villages and cities census since beginning of this century cleaned and organised into SQL tables.
• Information about all Bulgarian municipalities about religion, ethnicity cleaned and organised into SQL tables.
• Data successfully loaded to locally running Ollama with help to Vanna.AI
• Seems to be usable.

TODO

• Add more statistical information about municipalities and ....

Code and data

Improve chore and screen time doc generator script `wochenplaner` by gniebler

Description

I wrote a little Python script to generate PDF docs, which can be used to track daily chore completion and screen time usage for several people, with one page per person/week.

I named this script wochenplaner and have been using it for a few months now.

It needs some improvements and adjustments in how the screen time should be tracked and how chores are displayed.

Goals

• Fix chore field separation lines
• Change screen time tracking logic from "global" (week-long) to daily subtraction and weekly addition of remainders (more intuitive than current "weekly time budget method)
• Add logic to fill in chore fields/lines, ideally with pictures, falling back to text.

Testing and adding GNU/Linux distributions on Uyuni by juliogonzalezgil

Join the Gitter channel! https://gitter.im/uyuni-project/hackweek

Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves you time and headaches when you have to manage and update tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. It also manages configuration, can run audits, build image containers, monitor and much more!

Currently there are a few distributions that are completely untested on Uyuni or SUSE Manager (AFAIK) or just not tested since a long time, and could be interesting knowing how hard would be working with them and, if possible, fix whatever is broken.

For newcomers, the easiest distributions are those based on DEB or RPM packages. Distributions with other package formats are doable, but will require adapting the Python and Java code to be able to sync and analyze such packages (and if salt does not support those packages, it will need changes as well). So if you want a distribution with other packages, make sure you are comfortable handling such changes.

No developer experience? No worries! We had non-developers contributors in the past, and we are ready to help as long as you are willing to learn. If you don't want to code at all, you can also help us preparing the documentation after someone else has the initial code ready, or you could also help with testing :-)

The idea is testing Salt (including bootstrapping with bootstrap script) and Salt-ssh clients

To consider that a distribution has basic support, we should cover at least (points 3-6 are to be tested for both salt minions and salt ssh minions):

1. Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
2. Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
3. Package management (install, remove, update...)
4. Patching
5. Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
6. Salt remote commands
7. Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement
8. Bonus point: sumaform enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/sumaform)
9. Bonus point: Documentation (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni-docs)
10. Bonus point: testsuite enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/tree/master/testsuite)

If something is breaking: we can try to fix it, but the main idea is research how supported it is right now. Beyond that it's up to each project member how much to hack :-)

• If you don't have knowledge about some of the steps: ask the team
• If you still don't know what to do: switch to another distribution and keep testing.

This card is for EVERYONE, not just developers. Seriously! We had people from other teams helping that were not developers, and added support for Debian and new SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE Leap versions :-)

In progress/done for Hack Week 25

Guide

We started writin a Guide: Adding a new client GNU Linux distribution to Uyuni at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/wiki/Guide:-Adding-a-new-client-GNU-Linux-distribution-to-Uyuni, to make things easier for everyone, specially those not too familiar wht Uyuni or not technical.

openSUSE Leap 16.0

The distribution will all love!

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap#DRAFTScheduleforLeap16.0

Curent Status We started last year, it's complete now for Hack Week 25! :-D

• [W] Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file) NOTE: Done, client tools for SLMicro6 are using as those for SLE16.0/openSUSE Leap 16.0 are not available yet
• [W] Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
• [W] Package management (install, remove, update...). Works, even reboot requirement detection

Improve/rework household chore tracker `chorazon` by gniebler

Description

I wrote a household chore tracker named chorazon, which is meant to be deployed as a web application in the household's local network.

It features the ability to set up different (so far only weekly) schedules per task and per person, where tasks may span several days.

There are "tokens", which can be collected by users. Tasks can (and usually will) have rewards configured where they yield a certain amount of tokens. The idea is that they can later be redeemed for (surprise) gifts, but this is not implemented yet. (So right now one needs to edit the DB manually to subtract tokens when they're redeemed.)

Days are not rolled over automatically, to allow for task completion control.

We used it in my household for several months, with mixed success. There are many limitations in the system that would warrant a revisit.

It's written using the Pyramid Python framework with URL traversal, ZODB as the data store and Web Components for the frontend.

Goals

• Add admin screens for users, tasks and schedules
• Add models, pages etc. to allow redeeming tokens for gifts/surprises
• …?

Mail client with mailing list workflow support in Rust by acervesato

Description

To create a mail user interface using Rust programming language, supporting mailing list patches workflow. I know, aerc is already there, but I would like to create something simpler, without integrated protocols. Just a plain user interface that is using some crates to read and create emails which are fetched and sent via external tools.

I already know Rust, but not the async support, which is needed in this case in order to handle events inside the mail folder and to send notifications.

Goals

• simple user interface in the style of aerc, with some vim keybindings for motions and search
• automatic run of external tools (like mbsync) for checking emails
• automatic run commands for notifications
• apply patch set from ML
• tree-sitter support with styles

Resources

• ratatui: user interface (https://ratatui.rs/)
• notify: folder watcher (https://docs.rs/notify/latest/notify/)
• mail-parser: parser for emails (https://crates.io/crates/mail-parser)
• mail-builder: create emails in proper format (https://docs.rs/mail-builder/latest/mail_builder/)
• gitpatch: ML support (https://crates.io/crates/gitpatch)
• tree-sitter-rust: support for mail format (https://crates.io/crates/tree-sitter)

go-git: unlocking SHA256-based repository cloning ahead of git v3 by pgomes

Description

The go-git library implements the git internals in pure Go, so that any Go application can handle not only Git repositories, but also lower-level primitives (e.g. packfiles, idxfiles, etc) without needing to shell out to the git binary.

The focus for this Hackweek is to fast track key improvements for the project ahead of the upstream release of Git V3, which may take place at some point next year.

Goals

• Add support for cloning SHA256 repositories.
• Decrease memory churn for very large repositories (e.g. Linux Kernel repository).
• Cut the first alpha version for go-git/v6.

Stretch goals

• Review and update the official documentation.
• Optimise use of go-git in Fleet.
• Create RFC/example for go-git plugins to improve extensibility.
• Investigate performance bottlenecks for Blame and Status.

Create a page with all devel:languages:perl packages and their versions by tinita

Description

Perl projects now live in git: https://src.opensuse.org/perl

It would be useful to have an easy way to check which version of which perl module is in devel:languages:perl. Also we have meta overrides and patches for various modules, and it would be good to have them at a central place, so it is easier to lookup, and we can share with other vendors.

I did some initial data dump here a while ago: https://github.com/perlpunk/cpan-meta

But I never had the time to automate this.

I can also use the data to check if there are necessary updates (currently it uses data from download.opensuse.org, so there is some delay and it depends on building).

Goals

• Have a script that updates a central repository (e.g. https://src.opensuse.org/perl/_metadata) with metadata by looking at https://src.opensuse.org/perl/_ObsPrj (check if there are any changes from the last run)
• Create a HTML page with the list of packages (use Javascript and some table library to make it easily searchable)

Resources

Results

• https://perlpunk.github.io/opensuse-perl-meta/
• https://github.com/perlpunk/opensuse-perl-meta

Day 1

• First part of the code which retrieves data from https://src.opensuse.org/perl/_ObsPrj with submodules and creates a YAML and a JSON file.
• Repo: https://github.com/perlpunk/opensuse-perl-meta
• Also a first version of the HTML is live: https://perlpunk.github.io/opensuse-perl-meta/

Day 2

• HTML Page has now links to src.opensuse.org and the date of the last update, plus a short info at the top
• Code is now 100% covered by tests: https://app.codecov.io/gh/perlpunk/opensuse-perl-meta
• I used the modern perl class feature, which makes perl classes even nicer and shorter. See example
• Tests
  • I tried out the mocking feature of the modern Test2::V0 library which provides call tracking. See example
  • I tried out comparing data structures with the new Test2::V0 library. It let's you compare parts of the structure with the like function, which only compares the date that is mentioned in the expected data. example

Day 3

• Added various things to the table
  • Dependencies column
  • Show popup with info for cpanspec, patches and dependencies
  • Added last date / commit to the data export.

Plan: With the added date / commit we can now daily check _ObsPrj for changes and only fetch the data for changed packages.

Day 4

git-fs: file system representation of a git repository by fgonzalez

Description

This project aims to create a Linux equivalent to the git/fs concept from git9. Now, I'm aware that git provides worktrees, but they are not enough for many use cases. Having a read-only representation of the whole repository simplifies scripting by quite a bit and, most importantly, reduces disk space usage. For instance, during kernel livepatching development, we need to process and analyze the source code of hundreds of kernel versions simultaneously.This is rather painful with git-worktrees, as each kernel branch requires no less than 1G of disk space.

As for the technical details, I'll implement the file system using FUSE. The project itself should not take much time to complete, but let's see where it takes me.

I'll try to keep the same design as git9, so the file system will look something like:

/mnt/git
      +-- ctl
      +-- HEAD
      |    +-- tree
      |    |    +--files
      |    |    +--in
      |    |    +--head
      |    |
      |    +-- hash
      |    +-- msg
      |    +-- parent
      |
      +-- branch
      |      |
      |      +-- heads
      |      |      +-- master
      |      |            +-- [commit files, see HEAD]
      |      +-- remotes
      |             +-- origin
      |                     +-- master
      |                            +-- [commit files, see HEAD]
      +-- object
            +-- 00051fd3f066e8c05ae7d3cf61ee363073b9535f # blob contents
            +-- 00051fd3f066e8c05ae7d3cf61ee363073b9535c
                  +-- [tree contents, see HEAD/tree]
            +-- 3f5dbc97ae6caba9928843ec65fb3089b96c9283
                  +-- [commit files, see HEAD]

So, if you wanted to look at the commit message of the current branch, you could simply do:

cat /mnt/git/HEAD/msg 

No collaboration needed. This is a solo project.

Goals

• Implement a working prototype.

• Measure and improve the performance if possible. This step will be the most crucial one. User space filesystems are slower by nature.
