buit: fancy ultra fast mail client or "my local gmail"
a project by dmacvicar
Updated almost 5 years ago. 5 hacker ♥️.

My current mail setup is mu4e and emacs based mail client included with the amazing mu mail indexer. mu works similar to notmuch but allows easy bidirectional operation with the original Maildir. Add mbsync (isync) to sync imap locally and msmtp and you have a full mail setup.

The idea is to create a fancy version of this setup using a browser based application. The architecture is similar to mu4e. Instead of mu4e talking to mu-server, a small backend written in go talks to mu-server. The backend serves a javascript application and provides an HTTP API to it. The app is written in Vue.js.

The current prototype can already display the subjects of the mail as you type in the textfield. It uses plain rest for now. A Websocket would allow for progress report (but it is so fast that has not been necessary until now). The backend implements the mu-server s-exp protocol and for now exposes the cmd:find operation.

      @dmacvicar, is the prototype source hosted somewhere? If yes, is there a Getting Started in the README? I'd like to give it a try. :)

    OpenQA Golang api client by hilchev

    Description

    I would like to make a simple cli tool to communicate with the OpenQA API

    Goals

    • OpenQA has a ton of information that is hard to get via the UI. A tool like this would make my life easier :)
    • Would potentially make it easier in the future to make UI changes without Perl.
    • Improve my Golang skills

    kubectl clone: Seamlessly Clone Kubernetes Resources Across Multiple Rancher Clusters and Projects by dpunia

    Description

    kubectl clone is a kubectl plugin that empowers users to clone Kubernetes resources across multiple clusters and projects managed by Rancher. It simplifies the process of duplicating resources from one cluster to another or within different namespaces and projects, with optional on-the-fly modifications. This tool enhances multi-cluster resource management, making it invaluable for environments where Rancher orchestrates numerous Kubernetes clusters.

    Goals

    1. Seamless Multi-Cluster Cloning
      • Clone Kubernetes resources across clusters/projects with one command.
      • Simplifies management, reduces operational effort.

    Resources

    1. Rancher & Kubernetes Docs

      • Rancher API, Cluster Management, Kubernetes client libraries.

    2. Development Tools

      • Kubectl plugin docs, Go programming resources.

    Building and Installing the Plugin

    1. Set Environment Variables: Export the Rancher URL and API token:
    • export RANCHER_URL="https://rancher.example.com"
    • export RANCHER_TOKEN="token-xxxxx:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    1. Build the Plugin: Compile the Go program:
    • go build -o kubectl-clone ./pkg/
    1. Install the Plugin: Move the executable to a directory in your PATH:
    • mv kubectl-clone /usr/local/bin/

    Ensure the file is executable:

    • chmod +x /usr/local/bin/kubectl-clone
    1. Verify the Plugin Installation: Test the plugin by running:
    • kubectl clone --help

    You should see the usage information for the kubectl-clone plugin.

    Usage Examples

    1. Clone a Deployment from One Cluster to Another:
    • kubectl clone --source-cluster c-abc123 --type deployment --name nginx-deployment --target-cluster c-def456 --new-name nginx-deployment-clone
    1. Clone a Service into Another Namespace and Modify Labels:

    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.

    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
