Project Description

As I do not work as a developer per se, I love developing new code and learning new technologies that arise in this world. The Rust language is defined as Rust is a multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language. Rust emphasizes performance, type safety, and concurrency.

Goal for this Hackweek

During this Hackweek 21 I'd like to learn this "new" language and maybe take some challenges from codewars.com in order to check my results.

      I'm doing the same, exploring the Rust language using also these other resources:

      Me too, following: - https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rust-by-example/index.html

      I'm using Eclipse as IDE (https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/photon/rc3/eclipse-ide-rust-developers), it's not the latest version, but it works fine.

    Better diff'ing experience by MSirringhaus

    Description

    For diff-ing directories, I usually like to use meld, but it struggles a lot with large trees. Experiment with writing a TUI meld-clone for diffing directories and files

    Goals

    Get first prototype going of a TUI that can show

    • diffs of text-files
    • diffs of directories.

    Stretch goals

    • Themes
    • Filters (no whitespace, etc.)
    • Live config changes (Show/hide line numbers, etc.)

    Hack on isotest-ng - a rust port of isotovideo (os-autoinst aka testrunner of openQA) by szarate

    Description

    Some time ago, I managed to convince ByteOtter to hack something that resembles isotovideo but in Rust, not because I believe that Perl is dead, but more because there are certain limitations in the perl code (how it was written), and its always hard to add new functionalities when they are about implementing a new backend, or fixing bugs (Along with people complaining that Perl is dead, and that they don't like it)

    In reality, I wanted to see if this could be done, and ByteOtter proved that it could be, while doing an amazing job at hacking a vnc console, and helping me understand better what RuPerl needs to work.

    I plan to keep working on this for the next few years, and while I don't aim for feature completion or replacing isotovideo tih isotest-ng (name in progress), I do plan to be able to use it on a daily basis, using specialized tooling with interfaces, instead of reimplementing everything in the backend

    Todo

    • Add make targets for testability, e.g "spawn qemu and type"
    • Add image search matching algorithm
    • Add a Null test distribution provider
    • Add a Perl Test Distribution Provider
    • Fix unittests https://github.com/os-autoinst/isotest-ng/issues/5
    • Research OpenTofu how to add new hypervisors/baremetal to OpenTofu
    • Add an interface to openQA cli

    Goals

    • Implement at least one of the above, prepare proposals for GSoC
    • Boot a system via it's BMC
