Port git-fixup to POSIX shell script and submit to git/git by mcepl

Description

https://github.com/keis/git-fixup is an exceedingly useful program, which I use daily, and I would love to every git user could bask in its awesomeness. Alas, it is a bash script, so it is not appropriate for the inclusion in git proper.

Goals

Port the script to plain POSIX shell and submit for consideration to git@vger.kernel.org

Explore the integration between OBS and GitHub by pdostal

Project Description

The goals:

1) When GitHub pull request is created or modified the OBS project will be forked and the build results reported back to GitHub. 2) When new version of the GitHub project will be published the OBS will redownload the source and rebuild the project.

Goal for this Hackweek

Do as much as possible, blog about it and maybe use it another existing project.

Resources

• The Blog post
• Issue: poo#123858 - build.opensuse.org: /usr/lib/obs/service//go_modules.service No such file or directory

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.

Resources

• Replace ruby-ldap rubygem with net-ldap

obs-service-vendor_node_modules by cdimonaco

Description

When building a javascript package for obs, one option is to use https://github.com/openSUSE/obs-service-node_modules as source service to get the project npm dependencies available for package bulding.

obs-service-vendornodemodules aims to be a source service that vendors npm dependencies, installing them with npm install (optionally only production ones) and then creating a tar package of the installed dependencies.

The tar will be used as source in the package building definitions.

Goals

• Create an obs service package that vendors the npm dependencies as tar archive.
• Maybe add some macros to unpack the vendor package in the specfiles

Implement a full OBS api client in Rust by nbelouin

Description

I recently started to work on tooling for OBS using rust, to do so I started a Rust create to interact with OBS API, I only implemented a few routes/resources for what I needed. What about making it a full fledged OBS client library.

Goals

• Implement more routes/resources
• Implement a test suite against the actual OBS implementation
• Bonus: Create an osc like cli in Rust using the library

Resources

• https://github.com/suse-edge/obs-tools/tree/main/obs-client

Bootstrap openSUSE on LoongArch by glaubitz

Description

LoongArch is a new architecture from China which has its roots in the MIPS architecture. It has been created by Loongson and is already supported by Debian Ports, Gentoo and Loongnix.

Upstream support for LoongArch is already quite complete which includes LLVM, Rust, Golang, GRUB, QEMU, LibreOffice and many more. In Debian Ports, where the port is called "loong64", more than 95% of the whole Debian archive have been successfully built for LoongArch.

QEMU support is rather complete and stable such that packages can be built in emulated environments. Hardware can also be requested by Loongson on request for free. Access to real hardware is also provided through the GCC Compile Farm.

Goals

The initial goal should be to add LoongArch to OBS and build a minimal set of packages.

Resources

• Introduction to LoongArch: https://docs.kernel.org/arch/loongarch/introduction.html
• LoongArch community on Github: https://github.com/loongarchlinux
• Debian Ports repository for loong64: http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-loong64/main/
• Gentoo stage3 for loong: https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#loong

Results

• An initial set of packages for openSUSE loongarch64 has been successfully bootstrapped
• An OBS project has been set up to build packages for openSUSE loongarch64 with more than 3000 packages being built already
• A work-in-progress guide on how to bootstrap a new openSUSE port from Debian has been created
• A work-in-progress guide on how to add a new target to the openSUSE toolchain has been created

Acknowledgements

• Thanks to Adrian Schröter and Rüdiger Oertl for the help with setting up the FTP space and OBS project
• Thanks to Dirk Müller for the input on how to get started with a new port
• Thanks to Richard Biener for quickly accepting my submit requests to add loongarch64 support to the toolchain

Learn about OSB and contribute to `kustomize` and `k9s` packages to add ARM arch by dpock

Description

There are already k9s and kustomize packages that exist for openSUSE today. These could be used as the source for these binaries in our rancher projects. By using them we would benefit from CVE fixes included in our distribution of the packages not in cluded upstream. However they are not providing arm package builds which are required.

Goals

• [ ] Update the kustomize package in OBS to use the newest version and send change request

Resources

• k9s: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/k9s
• kustomize: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/kustomize

ddflare: (Dynamic)DNS management via Cloudflare API in Kubernetes by fgiudici

Description

ddflare is a project started a couple of weeks ago to provide DDNS management using v4 Cloudflare APIs: Cloudflare offers management via APIs and access tokens, so it is possible to register a domain and implement a DynDNS client without any other external service but their API.

Since ddflare allows to set any IP to any domain name, one could manage multiple A and ALIAS domain records. Wouldn't be cool to allow full DNS control from the project and integrate it with your Kubernetes cluster?

Goals

Main goals are:

1. add containerized image for ddflare
2. extend ddflare to be able to add and remove DNS records (and not just update existing ones)
3. add documentation, covering also a sample pod deployment for Kubernetes
4. write a ddflare Kubernetes operator to enable domain management via Kubernetes resources (using kubebuilder)

Available tasks and improvements tracked on ddflare github.

Uyuni developer-centric documentation by deneb_alpha

Description

While we currently have extensive documentation on user-oriented tasks such as adding minions, patching, fine-tuning, etc, there is a notable gap when it comes to centralizing and documenting core functionalities for developers.

The number of functionalities and side tools we have in Uyuni can be overwhelming. It would be nice to have a centralized place with descriptive list of main/core functionalities.

Goals

Create, aggregate and review on the Uyuni wiki a set of resources, focused on developers, that include also some known common problems/troubleshooting.

The documentation will be helpful not only for everyone who is trying to learn the functionalities with all their inner processes like newcomer developers or community enthusiasts, but also for anyone who need a refresh.

Resources

The resources are currently aggregated here: https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/wiki

Testing and adding GNU/Linux distributions on Uyuni by juliogonzalezgil

Join the Gitter channel! https://gitter.im/uyuni-project/hackweek

Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves you time and headaches when you have to manage and update tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. It also manages configuration, can run audits, build image containers, monitor and much more!

Currently there are a few distributions that are completely untested on Uyuni or SUSE Manager (AFAIK) or just not tested since a long time, and could be interesting knowing how hard would be working with them and, if possible, fix whatever is broken.

For newcomers, the easiest distributions are those based on DEB or RPM packages. Distributions with other package formats are doable, but will require adapting the Python and Java code to be able to sync and analyze such packages (and if salt does not support those packages, it will need changes as well). So if you want a distribution with other packages, make sure you are comfortable handling such changes.

No developer experience? No worries! We had non-developers contributors in the past, and we are ready to help as long as you are willing to learn. If you don't want to code at all, you can also help us preparing the documentation after someone else has the initial code ready, or you could also help with testing :-)

The idea is testing Salt and Salt-ssh clients, but NOT traditional clients, which are deprecated.

To consider that a distribution has basic support, we should cover at least (points 3-6 are to be tested for both salt minions and salt ssh minions):

1. Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
2. Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
3. Package management (install, remove, update...)
4. Patching
5. Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
6. Salt remote commands
7. Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement
8. Bonus point: sumaform enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/sumaform)
9. Bonus point: Documentation (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni-docs)
10. Bonus point: testsuite enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/tree/master/testsuite)

If something is breaking: we can try to fix it, but the main idea is research how supported it is right now. Beyond that it's up to each project member how much to hack :-)

• If you don't have knowledge about some of the steps: ask the team
• If you still don't know what to do: switch to another distribution and keep testing.

This card is for EVERYONE, not just developers. Seriously! We had people from other teams helping that were not developers, and added support for Debian and new SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE Leap versions :-)

FUSS

FUSS is a complete GNU/Linux solution (server, client and desktop/standalone) based on Debian for managing an educational network.

https://fuss.bz.it/

Seems to be a Debian 12 derivative, so adding it could be quite easy.

• [W] Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
• [W] Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap script, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator) --> Working for all 3 options (salt minion UI, salt minion bootstrap script and salt-ssh minion from the UI).
• [W] Package management (install, remove, update...) --> Installing a new package works, needs to test the rest.
• [I] Patching (if patch information is available, could require writing some code to parse it, but IIRC we have support for Ubuntu already). No patches detected. Do we support patches for Debian at all?
• [W] Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
• [W] Salt remote commands
• [ ] Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement
