Scanning books stopped 6 years ago. We need volunteers to take the scanner and walk through the offices. This is a good learning opportunity for trainees.

The software could also be updated. If anybody looks for a replacement with a more mature opensource solution, Lars suggests KOHA which he already packaged in obs.

Looking for hackers with the skills:

    Create object oriented API for perl's YAML::XS module by tinita

    Description

    YAML::XS is a binding to libyaml and already quite old, but the most popular YAML module for perl. There are two main issues:

    • It uses global package variables to influence behaviour.
    • It didn't implement the loading of types like numbers and booleans according to the YAML spec (neither 1.1 nor 1.2).

    Goals

    Create a new interface which works object oriented. Currently YAML::XS exports a list of functions.

    • The new API will allow to create a YAML::XS object containing configuration influencing the behaviour of loading and dumping.
      • It keeps the libyaml parser and emitter structs in memory, so repeated calls can save the creation of those structs
    • It will by default implement the YAML 1.2 Core Schema, so it is compatible to other YAML processors in perl and in other languages
    • If I have time, I would like to add the merge << key feature as an option. We could then use it in openQA as a replacement for YAML::PP to be faster.

    I already created a proof of concept with a minimal functionality some weeks before this HackWeek.

    Fix RSpec tests in order to replace the ruby-ldap rubygem in OBS by enavarro_suse

    Description

    "LDAP mode is not official supported by OBS!". See: config/options.yml.example#L100-L102

    However, there is an RSpec file which tests LDAP mode in OBS. These tests use the ruby-ldap rubygem, mocking the results returned by a LDAP server.

    The ruby-ldap rubygem seems no longer maintaned, and also prevents from updating to a more recent Ruby version. A good alternative is to replace it with the net-ldap rubygem.

    Before replacing the ruby-ldap rubygem, we should modify the tests so the don't mock the responses of a LDAP server. Instead, we should modify the tests and run them against a real LDAP server.

    Goals

    Goals of this project:

    • Modify the RSpec tests and run them against a real LDAP server
    • Replace the net-ldap rubygem with the ruby-ldap rubygem

    Achieving the above mentioned goals will:

    • Permit upgrading OBS from Ruby 3.1 to Ruby 3.2
    • Make a step towards officially supporting LDAP in OBS.

    Recipes catalog and calculator in Rails 8 by gfilippetti

    My wife needs a website to catalog and sell the products of her upcoming bakery, and I need to learn and practice modern Rails. So I'm using this Hack Week to build a modern store using the latest Ruby on Rails best practices, ideally up to the deployment.

    TO DO

    • Index page
    • Product page
    • Admin area -- Supplies calculator based on orders -- Orders notification
    • Authentication
    • Payment
    • Deployment

    Day 1

    As my Rails knowledge was pretty outdated and I had 0 experience with Turbo (wich I want to use in the app), I started following a turbo-rails course. I completed 5 of 11 chapters.

    Day 2

    Continued the course until chapter 8 and added live updates & an empty state to the app. I should finish the course on day 3 and start my own project with the knowledge from it.

    Hackweek 24

    For this Hackweek I'll continue this project, focusing on a Catalog/Calculator for my wife's recipes so she can use for her Café.
