Create a web application for configuring laitos - your "Do Everything" software for serious preppers
a project by guohouzuo
Updated almost 7 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️.

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.

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.

    Create a Cloud-Native policy engine with notifying capabilities to optimize resource usage by gbazzotti

    Description

    The goal of this project is to begin the initial phase of development of an all-in-one Cloud-Native Policy Engine that notifies resource owners when their resources infringe predetermined policies. This was inspired by a current issue in the CES-SRE Team where other solutions seemed to not exactly correspond to the needs of the specific workloads running on the Public Cloud Team space.

    The initial architecture can be checked out on the Repository listed under Resources.

    Among the features that will differ this project from other monitoring/notification systems:

    • Pre-defined sensible policies written at the software-level, avoiding a learning curve by requiring users to write their own policies
    • All-in-one functionality: logging, mailing and all other actions are not required to install any additional plugins/packages
    • Easy account management, being able to parse all required configuration by a single JSON file
    • Eliminate integrations by not requiring metrics to go through a data-agreggator

    Goals

    • Create a minimal working prototype following the workflow specified on the documentation
    • Provide instructions on installation/usage
    • Work on email notifying capabilities

    Create a go module to wrap happy-compta.fr by cbosdonnat

    Description

    https://happy-compta.fr is a tool for french work councils simple book keeping. While it does the job, it has no API to work with and it is tedious to enter loads of operations.

    Goals

    Write a go client module to be used as an API to programmatically manipulate the tool.

    Writing an example tool to load data from a CSV file would be good too.

    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.

    terraform-provider-feilong by e_bischoff

    Project Description

    People need to test operating systems and applications on s390 platform. While this is straightforward with KVM, this is very difficult with z/VM.

    IBM Cloud Infrastructure Center (ICIC) harnesses the Feilong API, but you can use Feilong without installing ICIC(see this schema).

    What about writing a terraform Feilong provider, just like we have the terraform libvirt provider? That would allow to transparently call Feilong from your main.tf files to deploy and destroy resources on your z/VM system.

    Goal for Hackweek 23

    I would like to be able to easily deploy and provision VMs automatically on a z/VM system, in a way that people might enjoy even outside of SUSE.

    My technical preference is to write a terraform provider plugin, as it is the approach that involves the least software components for our deployments, while remaining clean, and compatible with our existing development infrastructure.

    Goals for Hackweek 24

    Feilong provider works and is used internally by SUSE Manager team. Let's push it forward!

    Let's add support for fiberchannel disks and multipath.

    Add support for todo.sr.ht to git-bug by mcepl

    Description

    I am a big fan of distributed issue tracking and the best (and possibly) only credible such issue tracker is now git-bug. It has bridges to another centralized issue trackers, so user can download (and modify) issues on GitHub, GitLab, Launchpad, Jira). I am also a fan of SourceHut, which has its own issue tracker, so I would like it bridge the two. Alas, I don’t know much about Go programming language (which the git-bug is written) and absolutely nothing about GraphQL (which todo.sr.ht uses for communication). AI to the rescue. I would like to vibe code (and eventually debug and make functional) bridge to the SourceHut issue tracker.

    Goals

    Functional fix for https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug/issues/1024

    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!

    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:
