The usual baby-phones and phone based surveillance solutions do not fit my needs:
- We live in townhouse with reinforced concrete walls (the signal from the babyphone is not strong enough)
- We want to meet with neighbors two or three houses away.
So baby-phone is out of question. I could use a phone based application (most Gigaset have on integrated) which calls a number on a noise activation base. (Tried that. If your child is coughing you are feeling like a phone operator)
Therefore I want to build something like this:
- Raspberry Pi with Camera and microphone
- gets activated on movement and / or noise
- starts the cam and provides secure stream
- notifies you that there is something happening
- you can access the stream and look what it is.
- optional: Turn on the cam from remote
- optional: Threshold for stream starting (Start the stream only on reoccurring noise or movement)
- optional: Have a nice app for this ;)

At least all your requirements that you stated should be fulfilled by the android app Dormi which I used successfully so far with an older Android Smartphone I installed with lineageos and either wifi-only or a secondary SIM-card with no monthly fee. You can try it with a 4h/month limit for free at least to see how it can look like but the RPi idea sounds nice of course as well. At least for the mobile case I favor a repurposed Android smartphone over RPi as the whole power-connection+wifi+mobile-connection+camera+microphone-integration-challenge is solved easily :)

Oh cool. I will have a look at Dormi in the hackweek too. For a mobile use it may worth a try.
But at home I would love to have something that is mounted stationary. In the requirements I forgot one optional goal: Add multiple baby stations ;-)
And of course the main reason for all this is learning new things and playing around...

Enhance UV openQA helper script by mdonis
Description
A couple months ago an UV openQA helper script was created to help/automate the searching phase inside openQA for a given MU to test. The script searches inside all our openQA job groups (qam-sle) related with a given MU and generates an output suitable to add (copy & paste) inside the update log.
This is still a WIP and could use some enhancements.
Goals
- Move script from bash to python: this would be useful in case we want to include this into MTUI in the future. The script will be separate from MTUI for now. The idea is to have this as a CLI tool using the click library or something similar.
- Add option to look for jobs in other sections inside aggregated updates: right now, when looking for regression tests under aggregated updates for a given MU, the script only looks inside the Core MU job group. This is where most of the regression tests we need are located, but some MUs have their regression tests under the YaST/Containers/Security MU job groups. We should keep the Core MU group as a default, but add an option to be able to look into other job groups under aggregated updates.
- Remove the
-a
option: this option is used to indicate the update ID and is mandatory right now. This is a bit weird and goes against posix stardards. It was developed this way in order to avoid using positional parameters. This problem should be fixed if we move the script to python.
Some other ideas to consider:
- Look into the QAM dashboard API. This has more info on each MU, could use this to link general openQA build results, whether the related RR is approved or not, etc
- Make it easier to see if there's regression tests for a package in an openQA test build. Check if there's a possibility to search for tests that have the package name in them inside each testsuite.
- Unit testing?
More ideas TBD

Symbol Relations by hli
Description
There are tools to build function call graphs based on parsing source code, for example, cscope
.
This project aims to achieve a similar goal by directly parsing the disasembly (i.e. objdump) of a compiled binary. The assembly code is what the CPU sees, therefore more "direct". This may be useful in certain scenarios, such as gdb/crash debugging.
Detailed description and Demos can be found in the README file:
Supports x86 for now (because my customers only use x86 machines), but support for other architectures can be added easily.
Tested with python3.6
Goals
Any comments are welcome.

Small healthcheck tool for Longhorn by mbrookhuis
Project Description
We have often problems (e.g. pods not starting) that are related to PVCs not running, cluster (nodes) not all up or deployments not running or completely running. This all prevents administration activities. Having something that can regular be run to validate the status of the cluster would be helpful, and not as of today do a lot of manual tasks.
As addition (read enough time), we could add changing reservation, adding new disks, etc. --> This didn't made it. But the scripts can easily be adopted.
This tool would decrease troubleshooting time, giving admins rights to the rancher GUI and could be used in automation.
Goal for this Hackweek
At the end we should have a small python tool that is doing a (very) basic health check on nodes, deployments and PVCs. First attempt was to make it in golang, but that was taking to much time.
Overview
This tool will run a simple healthcheck on a kubernetes cluster. It will perform the following actions:
node check: This will check all nodes, and display the status and the k3s version. If the status of the nodes is not "Ready" (this should be only reported), the cluster will be reported as having problems
deployment check: This check will list all deployments, and display the number of expected replicas and the used replica. If there are unused replicas this will be displayed. The cluster will be reported as having problems.
pvc check: This check will list of all pvc's, and display the status and the robustness. If the robustness is not "Healthy", the cluster will be reported as having problems.
If there is a problem registered in the checks, there will be a warning that the cluster is not healthy and the program will exit with 1.
The script has 1 mandatory parameter and that is the kubeconf of the cluster or of a node off the cluster.
The code is writen for Python 3.11, but will also work on 3.6 (the default with SLES15.x). There is a venv present that will contain all needed packages. Also, the script can be run on the cluster itself or any other linux server.
Installation
To install this project, perform the following steps:
- Create the directory /opt/k8s-check
mkdir /opt/k8s-check
- Copy all the file to this directory and make the following changes:
chmod +x k8s-check.py

Create an Android app for Syncthing as part of the Syncthing Tray project by mkittler
Description
There's already an app but code/features already in Syncthing Tray could be reused to create a nicer app with additional features like managing ignore patterns more easily. The additional UI code for the app could then in turn be re-used by other parts of Syncthing Tray, e.g. to implement further steps in the wizard as requested by some users. This way one "UI wrapper codebase" could serve GNU/Linux, Windows and Android (and in theory MacOS) at the same time which is kind of neat.
Goals
- DONE: Learn more about development for Android and development of UIs with Qt Quick
- DONE: Create an experimental app reusing as much existing Syncthing Tray code as possible
- DONE: Build Syncthing as a library also for Android and use it in the app (already done but needs further testing and integration with the rest of the app configuration)
- DONE: Update the Syncthing Tray website, documentation
- Extend the app so it has at least a start page and an import that can cope with an export of the other app
- Update forum thread
- Upload an experimental build on GitHub
- Extend the Syncthing API to download single files on demand (instead of having to sync the whole directory or use ignore patterns)

Sipario, less mobile phone, more social interactions by baldarn
Mobile phone usage is addictive. There are adults addicted, but a huge problem is kids addiction We must do something to help avoid problems in this context.
The solution
Sipario, an app and community aggregator in order to help with smartphone addiction.
Description
The more you use Sipario, the more points you earn. If you use the smartphone, you will lose your points
Business model
How is this sustainable?
I personally don't care, but sutainability of the business is key to possible investments.
Sipario will allow commercial entities to join the network. The idea is to give commercial activities (eg: restourants, cinemas, theathers, ....) the ability to certify that users are not using the smartphones during the permanence in the place. this will allow then commercial activities to give coupons to users, in order to promote a good behavior and retain the customer
Tech challenge
if resources allows it, i would like to create an algorithm that leverage bluetooth for certify people proximity presence in order to avoid attacks from points rouge in the context of the app
Goals
Deliver:
- android app
- IOs app (some apple developers must join in order to do this)
- backoffice app
- BLE algorithm to certify nearby presence

Grapesss: a physical Shamir's Secret Sharing application [ESP32-C3 + Mobile] by ecandino
Description
A couple of years ago I created StegoSecretS, a small cli used to encrypt and split a secret into multiple keys, using the Shamir's Secret Sharing algorithm.
The idea is to re-implement the project using physical devices. One device alone will be useless, but when close together they can be used to decrypt the secret.
On a practical side the user encrypts the secret with a mobile application. The same application is used to split the secret, and load the partial keys into different micro-controllers. Another user will be able to decrypt the secret only having at least N devices close together (using the application).
I'm planning to use a couple of ESP32-C3 I bought, and build a very simple Android mobile application.
Goals
- Learn about Rust and micro-controllers (ESP32-C3)
- Learn about mobile applications (Android and Kotlin)
