Laitos is an open source project written in go, it emphasizes simplicity of maintenance and delivers a complete suite of web, DNS, and mail servers to host a personal web server. Beyond the suite of servers, laitos software hooks into numerous API platforms, that altogether enable user access to Internet features (such as Facebook, Twitter, emails) via alternative communication infrastructures such as telephone (PSTN), SMS, and satellite terminals.

For added fun, laitos software enables nostalgic computer systems (such as Windows 98 and DOS) to access modern web by rendering web sites on laitos server, and provides web page interactions via text commands and screenshots.

Project URL: https://github.com/HouzuoGuo/laitos

In this Hackweek project, we will learn the basics of web programming together, and create a single-page client-side web application that helps laitos user to create and maintain program configuration.

Ayoub, our HA + web development expert, has strongly recommended vue.js to kick start this effort.

    Kudos aka openSUSE Recognition Platform by lkocman

    Description

    Relevant blog post at news-o-o

    I started the Kudos application shortly after Leap 16.0 to create a simple, friendly way to recognize people for their work and contributions to openSUSE. There’s so much more to our community than just submitting requests in OBS or gitea we have translations (not only in Weblate), wiki edits, forum and social media moderation, infrastructure maintenance, booth participation, talks, manual testing, openQA test suites, and more!

    Goals

    • Kudos under github.com/openSUSE/kudos with build previews aka netlify

    • Have a kudos.opensuse.org instance running in production

    • Build an easy-to-contribute recognition platform for the openSUSE community a place where everyone can send and receive appreciation for their work, across all areas of contribution.

    • In the future, we could even explore reward options such as vouchers for t-shirts or other community swag, small tokens of appreciation to make recognition more tangible.

    SUSE Health Check Tools by roseswe

    SUSE HC Tools Overview

    A collection of tools written in Bash or Go 1.24++ to make life easier with handling of a bunch of tar.xz balls created by supportconfig.

    Background: For SUSE HC we receive a bunch of supportconfig tar balls to check them for misconfiguration, areas for improvement or future changes.

    Main focus on these HC are High Availability (pacemaker), SLES itself and SAP workloads, esp. around the SUSE best practices.

    Goals

    • Overall improvement of the tools
    • Adding new collectors
    • Add support for SLES16

    Play with the userfaultfd(2) system call and download on demand using HTTP Range Requests with Golang by rbranco

    Description

    The userfaultfd(2) is a cool system call to handle page faults in user-space. This should allow me to list the contents of an ISO or similar archive without downloading the whole thing. The userfaultfd(2) part can also be done in theory with the PROT_NONE mprotect + SIGSEGV trick, for complete Unix portability, though reportedly being slower.

    Goals

    1. Create my own library for userfaultfd(2) in Golang.
    2. Create my own library for HTTP Range Requests.
    3. Complete portability with Unix.
    4. Benchmarks.
    5. Contribute some tests to LTP.

    go-git: unlocking SHA256-based repository cloning ahead of git v3 by pgomes

    Description

    The go-git library implements the git internals in pure Go, so that any Go application can handle not only Git repositories, but also lower-level primitives (e.g. packfiles, idxfiles, etc) without needing to shell out to the git binary.

    The focus for this Hackweek is to fast track key improvements for the project ahead of the upstream release of Git V3, which may take place at some point next year.

    Goals

    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

    Cluster API Provider for Harvester by rcase

    Project Description

    The Cluster API "infrastructure provider" for Harvester, also named CAPHV, makes it possible to use Harvester with Cluster API. This enables people and organisations to create Kubernetes clusters running on VMs created by Harvester using a declarative spec.

    The project has been bootstrapped in HackWeek 23, and its code is available here.

    Work done in HackWeek 2023

    • Have a early working version of the provider available on Rancher Sandbox : *DONE *
    • Demonstrated the created cluster can be imported using Rancher Turtles: DONE
    • Stretch goal - demonstrate using the new provider with CAPRKE2: DONE and the templates are available on the repo

    DONE in HackWeek 24:

    DONE in 2025 (out of Hackweek)

    • Support of ClusterClass
    • Add to clusterctl community providers, you can add it directly with clusterctl
    • Testing on newer versions of Harvester v1.4.X and v1.5.X
    • Support for clusterctl generate cluster ...
    • Improve Status Conditions to reflect current state of Infrastructure
    • Improve CI (some bugs for release creation)

    Goals for HackWeek 2025

    • FIRST and FOREMOST, any topic is important to you
    • Add e2e testing
    • Certify the provider for Rancher Turtles
    • Add Machine pool labeling
    • Add PCI-e passthrough capabilities.
    • Other improvement suggestions are welcome!

    Thanks to @isim and Dominic Giebert for their contributions!

    Looking for help from anyone interested in Cluster API (CAPI) or who wants to learn more about Harvester.

    This will be an infrastructure provider for Cluster API. Some background reading for the CAPI aspect:

    HTTP API for nftables by crameleon

    Background

    The idea originated in https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/164060 and is about building RESTful API which translates authorized HTTP requests to operations in nftables, possibly utilizing libnftables-json(5).

    Originally, I started developing such an interface in Go, utilizing https://github.com/google/nftables. The conversion of string networks to nftables set elements was problematic (unfortunately no record of details), and I started a second attempt in Python, which made interaction much simpler thanks to native nftables Python bindings.

    Goals

    1. Find and track the issue with google/nftables
    2. Revisit and polish the Go or Python code (prefer Go, but possibly depends on implementing missing functionality), primarily the server component
    3. Finish functionality to interact with nftables sets (retrieving and updating elements), which are of interest for the originating issue
    4. Align test suite
    5. Packaging

    Resources

    • https://git.netfilter.org/nftables/tree/py/src/nftables.py
    • https://git.com.de/Georg/nftables-http-api (to be moved to GitHub)
    • https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:crameleon:containers/pytest-nftables-container

    Results

    • Started new https://github.com/tacerus/nftables-http-api.
    • First Go nftables issue was related to set elements needing to be added with different start and end addresses - coincidentally, this was recently discovered by someone else, who added a useful helper function for this: https://github.com/google/nftables/pull/342.
    • Further improvements submitted: https://github.com/google/nftables/pull/347.

    Side results

    Upon starting to unify the structure and implementing more functionality, missing JSON output support was noticed for some subcommands in libnftables. Submitted patches here as well:
