SUSE Manager/Spacewalk client debug/test shell
an idea by dmacvicar
Updated over 6 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️. Has no hacker: grab it!

When developing for SUSE Manager, it gets tiresome to setup clients in order to debug and test with clients.

The idea is to create a nice shell (with history, command completion, colors) that allows to simulate being a client.

The shell would accept commands like

  • quickstart
    Would create an activation key, some sample repos, erratas, a client, etc Profiles could be defined in a yaml file
  • register
  • check (like running rhn_check)
  • receiving jobs like package install or reboot would ask the user for the result of the operation before sending it back

The library could make use of Klaus thin wrapper over the XML-RPC protocol.

    Recipes catalog and calculator in Rails 8 by gfilippetti

    My wife needs a website to catalog and sell the products of her upcoming bakery, and I need to learn and practice modern Rails. So I'm using this Hack Week to build a modern store using the latest Ruby on Rails best practices, ideally up to the deployment.

    TO DO

    • Index page
    • Product page
    • Admin area -- Supplies calculator based on orders -- Orders notification
    • Authentication
    • Payment
    • Deployment

    Day 1

    As my Rails knowledge was pretty outdated and I had 0 experience with Turbo (wich I want to use in the app), I started following a turbo-rails course. I completed 5 of 11 chapters.

    Day 2

    Continued the course until chapter 8 and added live updates & an empty state to the app. I should finish the course on day 3 and start my own project with the knowledge from it.

    Hackweek 24

    For this Hackweek I'll continue this project, focusing on a Catalog/Calculator for my wife's recipes so she can use for her Café.

    OS self documentation, health check and troubleshooting by roseswe

    Project Description

    The aim of this hackweek project is to improve the utility "cfg2html" so that it is even more usable under SLES and perhaps also under Rancher.

    cfg2html (see also https://github.com/cfg2html/cfg2html) itself is a very mature utility for collecting and documenting information of an operating system like Linux, AIX, HP-UX and others.

    Goal for this Hackweek

    The aim is to extend cfg2html

    • for SLES and SLES-for-SAP apps, high availability
    • Improve code for MicroOS 5.x, SUMA, Edge and k8s environments
    • fix shellbeauity warnings
    • possibly add more plugins
    • SUMA/Salt integration to collect.

    Resources

    Required skills: Bash, shell script and the SUSE products mentioned.
