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.

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

Learn enough Golang and hack on CoreDNS by jkuzilek

Description

I'm implementing a split-horizon DNS for my home Kubernetes cluster to be able to access my internal (and external) services over the local network through public domains. I managed to make a PoC with the k8s_gateway plugin for CoreDNS. However, I soon found out it responds with IPs for all Gateways assigned to HTTPRoutes, publishing public IPs as well as the internal Loadbalancer ones.

To remedy this issue, a simple filtering mechanism has to be implemented.

Goals

• Learn an acceptable amount of Golang
• Implement GatewayClass (and IngressClass) filtering for k8s_gateway
• Deploy on homelab cluster
• Profit?

Resources

• https://github.com/ori-edge/k8s_gateway/issues/36
• https://github.com/coredns/coredns/issues/2465#issuecomment-593910983

EDIT: Feature mostly complete. An unfinished PR lies here. Successfully tested working on homelab cluster.

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.

Introducing "Bottles": A Proof of Concept for Multi-Version CRD Management in Kubernetes by aruiz

Description

As we delve deeper into the complexities of managing multiple CRD versions within a single Kubernetes cluster, I want to introduce "Bottles" - a proof of concept that aims to address these challenges.

Bottles propose a novel approach to isolating and deploying different CRD versions in a self-contained environment. This would allow for greater flexibility and efficiency in managing diverse workloads.

Goals

• Evaluate Feasibility: determine if this approach is technically viable, as well as identifying possible obstacles and limitations.
• Reuse existing technology: leverage existing products whenever possible, e.g. build on top of Kubewarden as admission controller.
• Focus on Rancher's use case: the ultimate goal is to be able to use this approach to solve Rancher users' needs.

Resources

Core concepts:

• ConfigMaps: Bottles could be defined and configured using ConfigMaps.
• Admission Controller: An admission controller will detect "bootled" CRDs being installed and replace the resource name used to store them.
• Aggregated API Server: By analyzing the author of a request, the aggregated API server will determine the correct bottle and route the request accordingly, making it transparent for the user.

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

Automated Test Report reviewer by oscar-barrios

Description

In SUMA/Uyuni team we spend a lot of time reviewing test reports, analyzing each of the test cases failing, checking if the test is a flaky test, checking logs, etc.

Goals

Speed up the review by automating some parts through AI, in a way that we can consume some summary of that report that could be meaningful for the reviewer.

Resources

No idea about the resources yet, but we will make use of:

• HTML/JSON Report (text + screenshots)
• The Test Suite Status GithHub board (via API)
• The environment tested (via SSH)
• The test framework code (via files)

«Sophia, a backend developer, submitted a pull request with optimizations for a critical database query. Once she pushed her code, an automated load test ran, comparing her query against the main branch. Moments later, she saw a new comment automatically added to her PR: the comparison results showed reduced execution time and improved efficiency. Smiling, Sophia messaged her team, “Performance gains confirmed!”»

Goals

• To have a convenient and ergonomic framework to describe test scenarios, including environment and seed;
• to compare results from different tests
• to have a GitHub action that executes such tests on a CI environment

Resources

The MVP will be built on top of Preevy and K6.

Make more sense of openQA test results using AI by livdywan

Description

AI has the potential to help with something many of us spend a lot of time doing which is making sense of openQA logs when a job fails.

User Story

Allison Average has a puzzled look on their face while staring at log files that seem to make little sense. Is this a known issue, something completely new or maybe related to infrastructure changes?

Goals

• Leverage a chat interface to help Allison
• Create a model from scratch based on data from openQA
• Proof of concept for automated analysis of openQA test results

Bonus

• Use AI to suggest solutions to merge conflicts
  • This would need a merge conflict editor that can suggest solving the conflict
• Use image recognition for needles

Resources

• TensorFlow
• open-webui
• openQA instance of openSUSE
• openQA documentation

Timeline

Day 1

• Conversing with open-webui to teach me how to create a model based on openQA test results
  • Asking for example code using TensorFlow in Python
  • Discussing log files to explore what to analyze
  • Drafting a new project called Testimony (based on Implementing a containerized Python action) - the project name was also suggested by the assistant

Day 2

• Using NotebookLLM (Gemini) to produce conversational versions of blog posts
  • Writing openQA tests in Python
  • Developing in distrobox containers
• Researching the possibility of creating a project logo with AI
  • Asking open-webui, persons with prior experience and conducting a web search for advice

Highlights

• I briefly tested compared models to see if they would make me more productive. Between llama, gemma and mistral there was no amazing difference in the results for my case.
• Convincing the chat interface to produce code specific to my use case required very explicit instructions.
• Asking for advice on how to use open-webui itself better was frustratingly unfruitful both in trivial and more advanced regards.
• Documentation on source materials used by LLM's and tools for this purpose seems virtually non-existent - specifically if a logo can be generated based on particular licenses

Outcomes

• Chat interface-supported development is providing good starting points and open-webui being open source is more flexible than Gemini. Although currently some fancy features such as grounding and generated podcasts are missing.
• Allison still has to be very experienced with openQA to use a chat interface for test review. Publicly available system prompts would make that easier, though.

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 and Salt-ssh clients, but NOT traditional clients, which are deprecated.

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 :-)

Pending

FUSS

FUSS is a complete GNU/Linux solution (server, client and desktop/standalone) based on Debian for managing an educational network.

https://fuss.bz.it/

Seems to be a Debian 12 derivative, so adding it could be quite easy.

• [W] Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
• [W] Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap script, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator) --> Working for all 3 options (salt minion UI, salt minion bootstrap script and salt-ssh minion from the UI).
• [W] Package management (install, remove, update...) --> Installing a new package works, needs to test the rest.
• [I] Patching (if patch information is available, could require writing some code to parse it, but IIRC we have support for Ubuntu already). No patches detected. Do we support patches for Debian at all?
• [W] Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
• [W] Salt remote commands
• [ ] Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement

Hack on isotest-ng - a rust port of isotovideo (os-autoinst aka testrunner of openQA) by szarate

Description

Some time ago, I managed to convince ByteOtter to hack something that resembles isotovideo but in Rust, not because I believe that Perl is dead, but more because there are certain limitations in the perl code (how it was written), and its always hard to add new functionalities when they are about implementing a new backend, or fixing bugs (Along with people complaining that Perl is dead, and that they don't like it)

In reality, I wanted to see if this could be done, and ByteOtter proved that it could be, while doing an amazing job at hacking a vnc console, and helping me understand better what RuPerl needs to work.

I plan to keep working on this for the next few years, and while I don't aim for feature completion or replacing isotovideo tih isotest-ng (name in progress), I do plan to be able to use it on a daily basis, using specialized tooling with interfaces, instead of reimplementing everything in the backend

Todo

• Add make targets for testability, e.g "spawn qemu and type"
• Add image search matching algorithm
• Add a Null test distribution provider
• Add a Perl Test Distribution Provider
• Fix unittests https://github.com/os-autoinst/isotest-ng/issues/5
• Research OpenTofu how to add new hypervisors/baremetal to OpenTofu
• Add an interface to openQA cli

Goals

• Implement at least one of the above, prepare proposals for GSoC
• Boot a system via it's BMC

Resources
