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
• "Good first issue" list

ADS-B receiver with MicroOS by epaolantonio

I would like to put one of my spare Raspberry Pis to good use, and what better way to see what flies above my head at any time?

There are various ready-to-use distros already set-up to provide feeder data to platforms like Flightradar24, ADS-B Exchange, FlightAware etc... The goal here would be to do it using MicroOS as a base and containerized decoding of ADS-B data (via tools like dump1090) and web frontend (tar1090).

Goals

• Create a working receiver using MicroOS as a base, and containers based on Tumbleweed
• Make it easy to install
• Optimize for maximum laziness (i.e. it should take care of itself with minimum intervention)

Resources

• 1x Small Board Computer capable of running MicroOS
• 1x RTL2832U DVB-T dongle
• 1x MicroSD card
• https://github.com/antirez/dump1090
• https://github.com/flightaware/dump1090 (dump1090 fork by FlightAware)
• https://github.com/wiedehopf/tar1090

Project status (2024-11-22)

So I'd say that I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out. I've packaged readsb (as a replacement for dump1090), tar1090, tar1090-db and mlat-client (not used yet).

Current status:

• Able to set-up a working receiver using combustion+ignition (web app based on Fuel Ignition)
• Able to feed to various feeds using the Beast protocol (Airplanes.live, ADSB.fi, ADSB.lol, ADSBExchange.com, Flyitalyadsb.com, Planespotters.net)
• Able to feed to Flightradar24 (initial-setup available but NOT tested! I've only tested using a key I already had)
• Local web interface (tar1090) to easily visualize the results
• Cockpit pre-configured to ease maintenance

What's missing:

• MLAT (Multilateration) support. I've packaged mlat-client already, but I have to wire it up
• FlightAware support

Give it a go at https://g7.github.io/adsbreceiver/ !

Enable the containerized Uyuni server to run on different host OS by j_renner

Description

The Uyuni server is provided as a container, but we still require it to run on Leap Micro? This is not how people expect to use containerized applications, so it would be great if we tested other host OSs and enabled them by providing builds of necessary tools for (e.g. mgradm). Interesting candidates should be:

• openSUSE Leap
• Cent OS 7
• Ubuntu
• ???

Goals

Make it really easy for anyone to run the Uyuni containerized server on whatever OS they want (with support for containers of course).

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

Save pytorch models in OCI registries by jguilhermevanz

Description

A prerequisite for running applications in a cloud environment is the presence of a container registry. Another common scenario is users performing machine learning workloads in such environments. However, these types of workloads require dedicated infrastructure to run properly. We can leverage these two facts to help users save resources by storing their machine learning models in OCI registries, similar to how we handle some WebAssembly modules. This approach will save users the resources typically required for a machine learning model repository for the applications they need to run.

Goals

Allow PyTorch users to save and load machine learning models in OCI registries.

Mortgage Plan Analyzer by RMestre

https://github.com/rjpmestre/mortgage-plan-analyzer

Project Description

Many people face challenges when trying to renegotiate their mortgages with different banks. They receive offers from multiple lenders and struggle to compare them effectively. Each proposal may have slightly different terms and data presentation, making it hard to make informed decisions. Additionally, understanding the impact of various taxes and variables can be complex. The Mortgage Plan Analyzer project aims to address these issues.

Project Overview:

The Mortgage Plan Analyzer is a web-based tool built using PHP, Laravel, Livewire, and AdminLTE/bootstrap. It provides a user-friendly platform for individuals to input basic specifications about their mortgage, adjust taxes and variables, and obtain short-term projections for each proposal. Users can also compare multiple mortgage offers side by side, enabling them to make informed decisions about their mortgage renegotiation.

Why Start This Project:

I found myself in this position and most tools I found around are either for marketing/selling purposes or not flexible enough. As i was starting getting lost in a jungle of spreadsheets i thought I could just create a tool to help me and others that may be experiencing the same struggles to provide clarity and transparency in the decision-making process.

Hackweek 25 ideas (to refine still :) )

• Euribor Trends in Projections
• - Use historical Euribor data to model optimistic and pessimistic scenarios for variable-rate loans.
• Use the annual summaries (installments, amortizations, etc) and run some analysis to highlight key differences, like short-term savings vs. long-term costs
• Financial plan can be hard/boring to follow. Create a simple viewing mode that summarizes monthly values and their annual sums.

Hackweek 24 update

• Improved summaries graphs by adding:
• - Line graph;
• - Accumulated line graph;
• - Set the range to short/mid/long term;
• - Highlight best simulation and value per year;
• Improve the general behaviour of the forms:
• - Simulations name setting;
• - Cloning simulations;
• - Adjust update timing on input changes;
• Show/Hide big tables;
• Support multi languages (added english);
• Added examples;
• Adjustments to fonts and sizes;
• Fixed loading screen;
• Dependencies adjustments;

Hackweek 23 initial release

• Developed a base site that:
• - Allows adding up to 3 simulations;
• - Create financial plans;
• - Simulations comparison graph for the first 4 years;
• Created Github project @ https://github.com/rjpmestre/mortgage-plan-analyzer ;
• Launched a demo instance using Oracle Cloud Free Tier currently @ http://138.3.251.182/
