Harvester Packer Plugin by mrohrich
Description
Hashicorp Packer is an automation tool that allows automatic customized VM image builds - assuming the user has a virtualization tool at their disposal. To make use of Harvester as such a virtualization tool a plugin for Packer needs to be written. With this plugin users could make use of their Harvester cluster to build customized VM images, something they likely want to do if they have a Harvester cluster.
Goals
Write a Packer plugin bridging the gap between Harvester and Packer. Users should be able to create customized VM images using Packer and Harvester with no need to utilize another virtualization platform.

Install Uyuni on Kubernetes in cloud-native way by cbosdonnat
Description
For now installing Uyuni on Kubernetes requires running mgradm
on a cluster node... which is not what users would do in the Kubernetes world. The idea is to implement an installation based only on helm charts and probably an operator.
Goals
Install Uyuni from Rancher UI.

Contribute to terraform-provider-libvirt by pinvernizzi
Description
The SUSE Manager (SUMA) teams' main tool for infrastructure automation, Sumaform, largely relies on terraform-provider-libvirt. That provider is also widely used by other teams, both inside and outside SUSE.
It would be good to help the maintainers of this project and give back to the community around it, after all the amazing work that has been already done.
If you're interested in any of infrastructure automation, Terraform, virtualization, tooling development, Go (...) it is also a good chance to learn a bit about them all by putting your hands on an interesting, real-use-case and complex project.
Goals
- Get more familiar with Terraform provider development and libvirt bindings in Go
- Solve some issues and/or implement some features
- Get in touch with the community around the project
Resources
- CONTRIBUTING readme
- Go libvirt library in use by the project
- Terraform plugin development

WebUI for your data by avicenzi
A single place to view every bit of data you have.
Problem
You have too much data and you are a data hoarder.
- Family photos and videos.
- Lots of eBooks, TV Shows, Movies, and else.
- Boxes full of papers (taxes, invoices, IDs, certificates, exams, and else).
- Bank account statements (multiple currencies, countries, and people).
Maybe you have some data on S3, some on your NAS, and some on your local PC.
- How do you get it all together?
- How do you link a bank transaction to a product invoice?
- How to tag any object type and create a collection out of it (mix videos, photos, PDFs, transactions)?
- How to store this? file/folder structure does not work, everything is linked together
Project Description
The idea is a place where you can throw all your data, photos, videos, documents, binaries, and else.
Create photo albums, document collections, add tags across multiple file-formats, link content, and else.
The UI should be easy to use, where the data is not important for now (could be all S3 or local drive).
Similar proposals
The closest I found so far is https://perkeep.org/, but this is not what I'm looking for.
Goal for this Hackweek
Create a web UI, in Svelte ideally, perhaps React.
It should be able to show photos and videos at least.
Resources
None so far, this is just an idea.
terraform-provider-feilong by e_bischoff
Project Description
People need to test operating systems and applications on s390 platform.
Installation from scratch solutions include:
- just deploy and provision manually (with the help of
ftpboot
script, if you are at SUSE) - use
s3270
terminal emulation (used byopenQA
people?) - use
LXC
from IBM to start CP commands and analyze the results - use
zPXE
to do some PXE-alike booting (used by theorthos
team?) - use
tessia
to install from scratch using autoyast - use
libvirt
for s390 to do some nested virtualization on some already deployed z/VM system - directly install a Linux kernel on a LPAR and use
kvm
+libvirt
from there
Deployment from image solutions include:
- use
ICIC
web interface (openstack
in disguise, contributed by IBM) - use
ICIC
from theopenstack
terraform
provider (used byRancher
QA) - use
zvm_ansible
to controlSMAPI
- connect directly to
SMAPI
low-level socket interface
IBM Cloud Infrastructure Center (ICIC
) harnesses the Feilong API, but you can use Feilong
without installing ICIC
, provided you set up a "z/VM cloud connector" into one of your VMs following this schema.
What about writing a terraform Feilong
provider, just like we have the terraform
libvirt
provider? That would allow to transparently call Feilong
from your main.tf files to deploy and destroy resources on your system/z.
Other Feilong-based solutions include:
- make
libvirt
Feilong-aware - simply call
Feilong
from shell scripts withcurl
- use
zvmconnector
client python library from Feilong - use
zthin
part of Feilong to directly commandSMAPI
.
Goal for Hackweek 23
My final goal is to be able to easily deploy and provision VMs automatically on a z/VM system, in a way that people might enjoy even outside of SUSE.
My technical preference is to write a terraform provider plugin, as it is the approach that involves the least software components for our deployments, while remaining clean, and compatible with our existing development infrastructure.
Goals for Hackweek 24
Feilong provider works and is used internally by SUSE Manager team. Let's push it forward!
Let's add support for fiberchannel disks and multipath.
Goals for Hackweek 25
- Finish support for fiberchannel disks and multipath
- Fix problems with registration on hashicorp providers registry
Technical talks at universities by agamez
Description
This project aims to empower the next generation of tech professionals by offering hands-on workshops on containerization and Kubernetes, with a strong focus on open-source technologies. By providing practical experience with these cutting-edge tools and fostering a deep understanding of open-source principles, we aim to bridge the gap between academia and industry.
For now, the scope is limited to Spanish universities, since we already have the contacts and have started some conversations.
Goals
- Technical Skill Development: equip students with the fundamental knowledge and skills to build, deploy, and manage containerized applications using open-source tools like Kubernetes.
- Open-Source Mindset: foster a passion for open-source software, encouraging students to contribute to open-source projects and collaborate with the global developer community.
- Career Readiness: prepare students for industry-relevant roles by exposing them to real-world use cases, best practices, and open-source in companies.
Resources
- Instructors: experienced open-source professionals with deep knowledge of containerization and Kubernetes.
- SUSE Expertise: leverage SUSE's expertise in open-source technologies to provide insights into industry trends and best practices.
ddflare: (Dynamic)DNS management via Cloudflare API in Kubernetes by fgiudici
Description
ddflare is a project started a couple of weeks ago to provide DDNS management using v4 Cloudflare APIs: Cloudflare offers management via APIs and access tokens, so it is possible to register a domain and implement a DynDNS client without any other external service but their API.
Since ddflare allows to set any IP to any domain name, one could manage multiple A and ALIAS domain records. Wouldn't be cool to allow full DNS control from the project and integrate it with your Kubernetes cluster?
Goals
Main goals are:
- add containerized image for ddflare
- extend ddflare to be able to add and remove DNS records (and not just update existing ones)
- add documentation, covering also a sample pod deployment for Kubernetes
- write a ddflare Kubernetes operator to enable domain management via Kubernetes resources (using kubebuilder)
Available tasks and improvements tracked on ddflare github.

Extending KubeVirtBMC's capability by adding Redfish support by zchang
Description
In Hack Week 23, we delivered a project called KubeBMC (renamed to KubeVirtBMC now), which brings the good old-fashioned IPMI ways to manage virtual machines running on KubeVirt-powered clusters. This opens the possibility of integrating existing bare-metal provisioning solutions like Tinkerbell with virtualized environments. We even received an inquiry about transferring the project to the KubeVirt organization. So, a proposal was filed, which was accepted by the KubeVirt community, and the project was renamed after that. We have many tasks on our to-do list. Some of them are administrative tasks; some are feature-related. One of the most requested features is Redfish support.
Goals
Extend the capability of KubeVirtBMC by adding Redfish support. Currently, the virtbmc component only exposes IPMI endpoints. We need to implement another simulator to expose Redfish endpoints, as we did with the IPMI module. We aim at a basic set of functionalities:
- Power management
- Boot device selection
- Virtual media mount (this one is not so basic )

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
