Project Description

One day in the past, a relative young geek met Wezterm terminal emulator in a wood or rusty repos. At that time he was used to drive a Win10 machine for work and a Linux shiny supercar for fun and Wezterm fit on both. So after few year the geek realize now that he should gives back to Mr. Wez something. But the geek is far to be a skilled Rustacean...

Goal for this Hackweek

  • Create some openQA needle based tests for Wezterm
  • Have the chance to go through all the exhaustive Wezterm documentation and eventually contribute to it issues

Hidden goals:

  • give back to Mr. Wez for his terminal
  • learn more about the lua wezterm configuration to improve my terminal configuration
  • learn more about openQA
  • get exposed to rust, lua, perl

    Mail client with mailing list workflow support in Rust by acervesato

    Description

    To create a mail user interface using Rust programming language, supporting mailing list patches workflow. I know, aerc is already there, but I would like to create something simpler, without integrated protocols. Just a plain user interface that is using some crates to read and create emails which are fetched and sent via external tools.

    I already know Rust, but not the async support, which is needed in this case in order to handle events inside the mail folder and to send notifications.

    Goals

    • simple user interface in the style of aerc, with some vim keybindings for motions and search
    • automatic run of external tools (like mbsync) for checking emails
    • automatic run commands for notifications
    • apply patch set from ML
    • tree-sitter support with styles

    Looking at Rust if it could be an interesting programming language by jsmeix

    Get some basic understanding of Rust security related features from a general point of view.

    This Hack Week project is not to learn Rust to become a Rust programmer. This might happen later but it is not the goal of this Hack Week project.

    The goal of this Hack Week project is to evaluate if Rust could be an interesting programming language.

    An interesting programming language must make it easier to write code that is correct and stays correct when over time others maintain and enhance it than the opposite.

    OpenPlatform Self-Service Portal by tmuntan1

    Description

    In SUSE IT, we developed an internal developer platform for our engineers using SUSE technologies such as RKE2, SUSE Virtualization, and Rancher. While it works well for our existing users, the onboarding process could be better.

    To improve our customer experience, I would like to build a self-service portal to make it easy for people to accomplish common actions. To get started, I would have the portal create Jira SD tickets for our customers to have better information in our tickets, but eventually I want to add automation to reduce our workload.

    Goals

    • Build a frontend website (Angular) that helps customers create Jira SD tickets.
    • Build a backend (Rust with Axum) for the backend, which would do all the hard work for the frontend.

    RMT.rs: High-Performance Registration Path for RMT using Rust by gbasso

    Description

    The SUSE Repository Mirroring Tool (RMT) is a critical component for managing software updates and subscriptions, especially for our Public Cloud Team (PCT). In a cloud environment, hundreds or even thousands of new SUSE instances (VPS/EC2) can be provisioned simultaneously. Each new instance attempts to register against an RMT server, creating a "thundering herd" scenario.

    We have observed that the current RMT server, written in Ruby, faces performance issues under this high-concurrency registration load. This can lead to request overhead, slow registration times, and outright registration failures, delaying the readiness of new cloud instances.

    This Hackweek project aims to explore a solution by re-implementing the performance-critical registration path in Rust. The goal is to leverage Rust's high performance, memory safety, and first-class concurrency handling to create an alternative registration endpoint that is fast, reliable, and can gracefully manage massive, simultaneous request spikes.

    The new Rust module will be integrated into the existing RMT Ruby application, allowing us to directly compare the performance of both implementations.

    Goals

    The primary objective is to build and benchmark a high-performance Rust-based alternative for the RMT server registration endpoint.

    Key goals for the week:

    1. Analyze & Identify: Dive into the SUSE/rmt Ruby codebase to identify and map out the exact critical path for server registration (e.g., controllers, services, database interactions).
    2. Develop in Rust: Implement a functionally equivalent version of this registration logic in Rust.
    3. Integrate: Explore and implement a method for Ruby/Rust integration to "hot-wire" the new Rust module into the RMT application. This may involve using FFI, or libraries like rb-sys or magnus.
    4. Benchmark: Create a benchmarking script (e.g., using k6, ab, or a custom tool) that simulates the high-concurrency registration load from thousands of clients.
    5. Compare & Present: Conduct a comparative performance analysis (requests per second, latency, success/error rates, CPU/memory usage) between the original Ruby path and the new Rust path. The deliverable will be this data and a summary of the findings.

    Create a page with all devel:languages:perl packages and their versions by tinita

    Description

    Perl projects now live in git: https://src.opensuse.org/perl

    It would be useful to have an easy way to check which version of which perl module is in devel:languages:perl. Also we have meta overrides and patches for various modules, and it would be good to have them at a central place, so it is easier to lookup, and we can share with other vendors.

    I did some initial data dump here a while ago: https://github.com/perlpunk/cpan-meta

    But I never had the time to automate this.

    I can also use the data to check if there are necessary updates (currently it uses data from download.opensuse.org, so there is some delay and it depends on building).

    Goals

    • Have a script that updates a central repository (e.g. https://src.opensuse.org/perl/_metadata) with metadata by looking at https://src.opensuse.org/perl/_ObsPrj (check if there are any changes from the last run)
    • Create a HTML page with the list of packages (use Javascript and some table library to make it easily searchable)

    MCP Perl SDK by kraih

    Description

    We've been using the MCP Perl SDK to connect openQA with AI. And while the basics are working pretty well, the SDK is not fully spec compliant yet. So let's change that!

    Goals

    • Support for Resources
    • All response types (Audio, Resource Links, Embedded Resources...)
    • Tool/Prompt/Resource update notifications
    • Dynamic Tool/Prompt/Resource lists
    • New authentication mechanisms

    openQA tests needles elaboration using AI image recognition by mdati

    Description

    In the openQA test framework, to identify the status of a target SUT image, a screenshots of GUI or CLI-terminal images, the needles framework scans the many pictures in its repository, having associated a given set of tags (strings), selecting specific smaller parts of each available image. For the needles management actually we need to keep stored many screenshots, variants of GUI and CLI-terminal images, eachone accompanied by a dedicated set of data references (json).

    A smarter framework, using image recognition based on AI or other image elaborations tools, nowadays widely available, could improve the matching process and hopefully reduce time and errors, during the images verification and detection process.

    Goals

    Main scope of this idea is to match a non-text status of a running openQA test, an image of a shell console or application-GUI screenshot, using less time and resources and with less errors in data preparation and use, than the actual openQA needles framework; that is:

    • having a given SUT (system under test) GUI or CLI-terminal screenshot, with a local distribution of pixels or text commands related to a running test status,
    • we want to identify a desired target, e.g. a screen image status or data/commands context,
      • based on AI/ML-pretrained archives containing object or other proper elaboration tools,
      • possibly able to identify also object not present in the archive, i.e. by means of AI/ML mechanisms.
    • the matching result should be then adapted to continue working in the openQA test, likewise and in place of the same result that would have been produced by the original openQA needles framework.
    • We expect an improvement of the matching-time(less time), reliability of the expected result(less error) and simplification of archive maintenance in adding/removing objects(smaller DB and less actions).

    Hackweek step

    POC:

    • study the available tools
    • prepare a plan for the process to build
    • write and build a draft application
    • prepare the data archive from a subset of needles
    • initialize/pre-train the base archive
    • select a screenshot from the subset, removing/changing some part
    • run the POC application
    • expect the image type is identified in a good %.

    Resources

    first step of this project is quite identification of useful resources for the scope; some possibilities are:

    • SUSE AI and other ML tools (i.e. Tensorflow)
    • Tools able to manage images
    • RPA test tools (like i.e. Robot framework)
    • other.

    openQA log viewer by mpagot

    Description

    *** Warning: Are You at Risk for VOMIT? ***

    Do you find yourself staring at a screen, your eyes glossing over as thousands of lines of text scroll by? Do you feel a wave of text-based nausea when someone asks you to "just check the logs"?

    You may be suffering from VOMIT (Verbose Output Mental Irritation Toxicity).

    This dangerous, work-induced ailment is triggered by exposure to an overwhelming quantity of log data, especially from parallel systems. The human brain, not designed to mentally process 12 simultaneous autoinst-log.txt files, enters a state of toxic shock. It rejects the "Verbose Output," making it impossible to find the one critical error line buried in a 50,000-line sea of "INFO: doing a thing."

    Before you're forced to rm -rf /var/log in a fit of desperation, we present the digital antacid.

    No panic: we have The openQA Log Visualizer

    This is the UI antidote for handling toxic log environments. It bravely dives into the chaotic, multi-machine mess of your openQA test runs, finds all the related, verbose logs, and force-feeds them into a parser.

    image

    Goals

    Work on the existing POC openqa-log-visualizer about few specific tasks:

    • add support for more type of logs
    • extend the configuration file syntax beyond the actual one
    • work on log parsing performance

    Find some beta-tester and collect feedback and ideas about features

    If time allow for it evaluate other UI frameworks and solutions (something more simple to distribute and run, maybe more low level to gain in performance).
