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

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

suse-rancher-supportconfig by eminguez

Description

Update: Live at https://github.com/e-minguez/suse-rancher-supportconfig I finally didn't used golang but used gum instead

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.

Try to render Agama in a TUI browser by ancorgs

Description

Agama is a new Linux installer that will be very likely used for SLES 16. It offers a modern and convenient web interface that can be executed both locally and remotely.

But of course some users will miss the old TUI (ncurses) interface of the YaST installer.

So I want to experiment whether would it be possible to render a simplified version of the web interface for TUI browsers. That's only doable and maintainable if we keep the current technology stack we use for rendering the full-blown page, simply replacing complicated UI elements with others that are easy to render. That means the browser would need to support Javascript.

Chawan seems to be almost there regarding support for Javascript, XHR and related technologies. But according to this conversation, the next missing piece would be to support recursive import of module script tags.

Unfortunately, Chawan is written in Nim and I'm pretty sure a week is not enough time for me to learn Nim, implement the feature at Chawan and then fix whatever is the next obstacle on the Agama side.

But if someone could take care of the Nim part, I would do the same with the Agama one. So this is basically a call for help to get this project even started.

ClusterOps - Easily install and manage your personal kubernetes cluster by andreabenini

Description

ClusterOps is a Kubernetes installer and operator designed to streamline the initial configuration and ongoing maintenance of kubernetes clusters. The focus of this project is primarily on personal or local installations. However, the goal is to expand its use to encompass all installations of Kubernetes for local development purposes.
It simplifies cluster management by automating tasks and providing just one user-friendly YAML-based configuration config.yml.

Overview

• Simplified Configuration: Define your desired cluster state in a simple YAML file, and ClusterOps will handle the rest.
• Automated Setup: Automates initial cluster configuration, including network settings, storage provisioning, special requirements (for example GPUs) and essential components installation.
• Ongoing Maintenance: Performs routine maintenance tasks such as upgrades, security updates, and resource monitoring.
• Extensibility: Easily extend functionality with custom plugins and configurations.
• Self-Healing: Detects and recovers from common cluster issues, ensuring stability, idempotence and reliability. Same operation can be performed multiple times without changing the result.
• Discreet: It works only on what it knows, if you are manually configuring parts of your kubernetes and this configuration does not interfere with it you can happily continue to work on several parts and use this tool only for what is needed.

Features

• distribution and engine independence. Install your favorite kubernetes engine with your package manager, execute one script and you'll have a complete working environment at your disposal.
  
• Basic config approach. One single config.yml file with configuration requirements (add/remove features): human readable, plain and simple. All fancy configs managed automatically (ingress, balancers, services, proxy, ...).
• Local Builtin ContainerHub. The default installation provides a fully configured ContainerHub available locally along with the kubernetes installation. This configuration allows the user to build, upload and deploy custom container images as they were provided from external sources. Internet public sources are still available but local development can be kept in this localhost server. Builtin ClusterOps operator will be fetched from this ContainerHub registry too.
• Kubernetes official dashboard installed as a plugin, others planned too (k9s for example).
• Kubevirt plugin installed and properly configured. Unleash the power of classic virtualization (KVM+QEMU) on top of Kubernetes and manage your entire system from there, libvirtd and virsh libs are required.
• One operator to rule them all. The installation script configures your machine automatically during installation and adds one kubernetes operator to manage your local cluster. From there the operator takes care of the cluster on your behalf.
• Clean installation and removal. Just test it, when you are done just use the same program to uninstall everything without leaving configs (or pods) behind.

Planned features (Wishlist / TODOs)

• Containerized Data Importer (CDI). Persistent storage management add-on for Kubernetes to provide a declarative way of building and importing Virtual Machine Disks on PVCs for

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.

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 by openQA people?)
• use LXC from IBM to start CP commands and analyze the results
• use zPXE to do some PXE-alike booting (used by the orthos 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 the openstack terraform provider (used by Rancher QA)
• use zvm_ansible to control SMAPI
• 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 with curl
• use zvmconnector client python library from Feilong
• use zthin part of Feilong to directly command SMAPI.

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

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.
