Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
As a Wikimedian who used to spend sleepless nights editing on the Malagasy language Wikipedia and Wiktionary, I have been developing botjagwar (https://github.com/radomd92/botjagwar) on and off for the last 10 years. More details at https://github.com/radomd92/botjagwar/wiki/Backstory
It's mostly bot scripts written in Python. Data is stored in a self-hosted PostgreSQL. In addition to a backend I'd written myself, I also use PostgREST. and a with a rather rustic front-end was written in 2020 (https://github.com/radomd92/botjagwar-frontend) as a COVID lockdown side-project. Other scripts also use Redis as a page cache to speed up operation involving a large number of page reads.

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
I wrote hbr (handbrake runner) [0]. It takes a global config, a per-file config, and individual outfile sections then calls HandBrakeCLI to encode video. I use it to encode movies/series from optical media.
Additionally there is hbscan.py to generate a list of potential outfiles from handbrake's --scan argument. One day I'd like to integrate it with hbr (in C) using peg/leg [1]. Currently using pyparsing.
This is still a lot of manual work, but it saves doing it twice. When you find a mistake in an encode there's a log with the file, and it's easy to go back and modify the keyfile and re-encode it.

Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
I wrote handbrake runner. It takes a plaintext (glib) keyfile and runs HandBrakeCLI repeatedly to encode video. I use it for my dvd/bd collection. It has a support script (hbscan.py) to build keyfile templates from handbrake's scan of dvd titles.
