Multi-pod, autoscalable Elixir application in Kubernetes using K8s resources by socon

Description

Elixir / Erlang use their own solutions to create clusters that work together. Kubernetes provide its own orchestration. Due to the nature of the BEAM, it looks a very promising technology for applications that run in Kubernetes and requite to be always on, specifically if they are created as web pages using Phoenix.

Goals

• Investigate and provide solutions that work in Phoenix LiveView using Kubernetes resources, so a multi-pod application can be used
• Provide an end to end example that creates and deploy a container from source code.

SUSE AI Meets the Game Board by moio

Use tabletopgames.ai’s open source TAG and PyTAG frameworks to apply Statistical Forward Planning and Deep Reinforcement Learning to two board games of our own design. On an all-green, all-open source, all-AWS stack!

---

AI + Board Games

Board games have long been fertile ground for AI innovation, pushing the boundaries of capabilities such as strategy, adaptability, and real-time decision-making - from Deep Blue's chess mastery to AlphaZero’s domination of Go. Games aren’t just fun: they’re complex, dynamic problems that often mirror real-world challenges, making them interesting from an engineering perspective.

As avid board gamers, aspiring board game designers, and engineers with careers in open source infrastructure, we’re excited to dive into the latest AI techniques first-hand.

Our goal is to develop an all-open-source, all-green AWS-based stack powered by some serious hardware to drive our board game experiments forward!

---

Project Goals

1. Set Up the Stack:

   • Install and configure the TAG and PyTAG frameworks on SUSE Linux Enterprise Base Container Images.
   • Integrate with the SUSE AI stack for GPU-accelerated training on AWS.
   • Validate a sample GPU-accelerated PyTAG workload on SUSE AI.
   • Ensure the setup is entirely repeatable with Terraform and configuration scripts, documenting results along the way.

2. Design and Implement AI Agents:

   • Develop AI agents for the two board games, incorporating Statistical Forward Planning and Deep Reinforcement Learning techniques.
   • Fine-tune model parameters to optimize game-playing performance.
   • Document the advantages and limitations of each technique.

3. Test, Analyze, and Refine:

   • Conduct AI vs. AI and AI vs. human matches to evaluate agent strategies and performance.
   • Record insights, document learning outcomes, and refine models based on real-world gameplay.

---

Technical Stack

• Frameworks: TAG and PyTAG for AI agent development
• Platform: SUSE AI
• Tools: AWS for high-performance GPU acceleration

---

Why This Project Matters

This project not only deepens our understanding of AI techniques by doing but also showcases the power and flexibility of SUSE’s open-source infrastructure for supporting high-level AI projects. By building on an all-open-source stack, we aim to create a pathway for other developers and AI enthusiasts to explore, experiment, and deploy their own innovative projects within the open-source space.

---

Our Motivation

We believe hands-on experimentation is the best teacher.

Combining our engineering backgrounds with our passion for board games, we’ll explore AI in a way that’s both challenging and creatively rewarding. Our ultimate goal? To hack an AI agent that’s as strategic and adaptable as a real human opponent (if not better!) — and to leverage it to design even better games... for humans to play!

suse-rancher-supportconfig by eminguez

Description

SUSE's supportconfig support tool collects data from the SUSE Operating system. Rancher's rancher2_logs_collector.sh support tool does the same for RKE2/K3s.

Wouldn't be nice to have a way to run both and collect all data for SUSE based RKE2/K3s clusters? Wouldn't be even better with a fancy TUI tool like bubbletea?

Ideally the output should be an html page where you can see the logs/data directly from the browser.

Goals

• Familiarize myself with both supportconfig and rancher2_logs_collector.sh tools
• Refresh my golang knowledge
• Have something that works at the end of the hackweek ("works" may vary )
• Be better in naming things

file-organizer: A CLI Tool for Efficient File Management by okhatavkar

Description

Create a Go-based CLI tool that helps organize files in a specified folder by sorting them into subdirectories based on defined criteria, such as file type or creation date. Users will pass a folder path as an argument, and the tool will process and organize the files within it.

Goals

• Develop Go skills by building a practical command-line application.
• Learn to manage and manipulate files and directories in Go using standard libraries.
• Create a tool that simplifies file management, making it easier to organize and maintain directories.

Resources

• Go Standard Libraries: Utilize os, filepath, and time for file operations.
• CLI Development: Use flag for basic argument parsing or consider cobra for enhanced functionality.
• Go Learning Material: Go by Example and The Go Programming Language Documentation.

Features

• File Type Sorting: Automatically move files into subdirectories based on their extensions (e.g., documents, images, videos).
• Date-Based Organization: Add an option to organize files by creation date into year/month folders.
• User-Friendly CLI: Build intuitive commands and clear outputs for ease of use. This version maintains the core idea of organizing files efficiently while focusing on Go development and practical file management.

A CLI for Harvester by mohamed.belgaied

[comment]: # Harvester does not officially come with a CLI tool, the user is supposed to interact with Harvester mostly through the UI [comment]: # Though it is theoretically possible to use kubectl to interact with Harvester, the manipulation of Kubevirt YAML objects is absolutely not user friendly. [comment]: # Inspired by tools like multipass from Canonical to easily and rapidly create one of multiple VMs, I began the development of Harvester CLI. Currently, it works but Harvester CLI needs some love to be up-to-date with Harvester v1.0.2 and needs some bug fixes and improvements as well.

Project Description

Harvester CLI is a command line interface tool written in Go, designed to simplify interfacing with a Harvester cluster as a user. It is especially useful for testing purposes as you can easily and rapidly create VMs in Harvester by providing a simple command such as: harvester vm create my-vm --count 5 to create 5 VMs named my-vm-01 to my-vm-05.

Harvester CLI is functional but needs a number of improvements: up-to-date functionality with Harvester v1.0.2 (some minor issues right now), modifying the default behaviour to create an opensuse VM instead of an ubuntu VM, solve some bugs, etc.

Github Repo for Harvester CLI: https://github.com/belgaied2/harvester-cli

Done in previous Hackweeks

• Create a Github actions pipeline to automatically integrate Harvester CLI to Homebrew repositories: DONE
• Automatically package Harvester CLI for OpenSUSE / Redhat RPMs or DEBs: DONE

Goal for this Hackweek

The goal for this Hackweek is to bring Harvester CLI up-to-speed with latest Harvester versions (v1.3.X and v1.4.X), and improve the code quality as well as implement some simple features and bug fixes.

Some nice additions might be: * Improve handling of namespaced objects * Add features, such as network management or Load Balancer creation ? * Add more unit tests and, why not, e2e tests * Improve CI * Improve the overall code quality * Test the program and create issues for it

Issue list is here: https://github.com/belgaied2/harvester-cli/issues

Resources

The project is written in Go, and using client-go the Kubernetes Go Client libraries to communicate with the Harvester API (which is Kubernetes in fact). Welcome contributions are:

• Testing it and creating issues
• Documentation
• Go code improvement

What you might learn

Harvester CLI might be interesting to you if you want to learn more about:

• GitHub Actions
• Harvester as a SUSE Product
• Go programming language
• Kubernetes API

Jenny Static Site Generator by adam.pickering

Description

For my personal site I have been using hugo. It works, but I am not satisfied: every time I want to make a change (which is infrequently) I have to read through the documentation again to understand how hugo works. I don't find the documentation easy to use, and the structure of the repository that hugo requires is unintuitive/more complex than what I need. So, I have decided to write my own simple static site generator in Go. It is named Jenny, after my wife.

Goals

• Pages can be written in markdown (which is automatically converted to HTML), but other file types are also allowed
• Easy to understand and use
  • Intuitive, simple design
  • Clear documentation
  • Hot reloading
  • Binaries provided for download
• Future maintenance is easy
  • Automated releases
