library VS lwan

Sure, I write small python CLI utils that help me solve media organization, media consumption, and sometimes data analysis. I use this every day on Linux and Android but I haven't tested it on other platforms. There are a lot of different subcommands and, although the CLI package will always be opinionated to some extent, there is a lot of niche functionality which might not need to exist. So I'm open to things being refactored or new subcommands being added. [1]

I have a lot of ideas for new ones, for example, I want a CLI that can take an artist name like "Theodor Kittelsen" and fetch highest quality public domain images--but I realize any implementation that does this well will be somewhat fragile so I haven't really attempted that yet. Other ideas that I have are often solved by piping output from one of my existing commands to another.

I used sqlite-utils to create a tool that can merge SQLITE files and split them:

I've created a few similar tools for link scraping: https://github.com/chapmanjacobd/library#usage

- library links-extract: extract inner links from pages (stdin, local files, or remote sites)

okay https://github.com/chapmanjacobd/library

I'm adding more unit tests: https://github.com/chapmanjacobd/library/commit/bd2e138897fdf41b8d8eade89bcdb34fee2b6abd

I would also[0] be interested in an argparse equivalent of this for my tool Library[1]

I have a little over 2 million songs as well and I wrote my own media management system to deal with it all. I save everything as Opus so the size is relatively small but still high-quality.

Losing the data from the hard drive AND the internet is less likely than just one of those events happening. Recently I accidentally deleted 12 TB of media and I was able to redownload 80% of it using a script that I wrote. 20% of it I had to manually redownload but everything was still there.

Absolutely useless fun tech demos are the best kind of demos

https://github.com/lpereira/lwan - presume this is the web server library you're referring to? Very cool.

I think a web-application based on https://github.com/lpereira/lwan and https://github.com/SanderMertens/flecs would be interesting. It would probably be faster than any other web-application out there. https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r10&hw=ph&test=json.

You don't have to use a channel for coordination. Here is a lexer implementation (in C!) that very closely follows Rob Pike's talk and uses a ring buffer for coordination and is plenty fast.

If you watch the talk carefully, Rob Pike himself mentions this near the end of the talk.
