dasdashboard VS moja

A UI for shell commands. It started when a project had so many helper scripts that I kept forgetting how to call them, so I made this dashboard or command-runner. https://github.com/seldomU/dasdashboard

Hi all. Das dashboard is a tool I wrote when a growing number of scripts (build, deploy, test, dev-server etc) became hard to manage. It's a quick way to add a GUI layer on top of scripts. All configuration and logic can be added inside the app, similar to editing a wiki.

Hi all! Here's the app on github. It lets you create UI widgets and run shell commands. Originally I made this to organize an ever-growing heap of automation scripts (build, deploy, test, dev-server etc). It works well for my needs and I use it in multiple projects now. I decided to brushed it up and put it on NPM to see if it could become a thing. If you find it useful, I'd be happy to hear about it.

I want sum types.

I want a statically-typed way of constructing composable queries that follow SQL rather than reinvent a different thing. It doesn't have to be the same syntax but it has to be the same structuring.

I started writing one[0] and stopped before doing all the boilerplate code generation, having moved on from the JVM ecosystem for the time being. One thing it does is treat most things like sets so we don't end up with N+1 queries. Another trick it uses is collapsing constant expressions via an expression evaluation library[1].

Over the years, I've written many apps and utilities for myself or others (that didn't end up get used). These are the interesting ones I remember. Many not quite complete/usable. Other than hackerer.news none of them are 'up' and running. Some have and others haven't been published as opensource.

- https://hackerer.news HN viewer (source[0]): I use daily so I can see today's top stories in reverse chronological order with mainstream topics sorted to the bottom.

- qwickly[1] keyboard layout: I use all the time as an easier to learn and more comfortable to type than Colemak/Tarmak

- safeql[2]: Java type-safe SQL expression composer that reduces constant expressions and eliminates N+1 queries loading associations by always operating on set relation or array of models.

- moja[3]: Composable computation pipelines for Java: Async, Lazy, Option, Try, Result, Multi (List), Stated, Reader, Logger, Writer.

- gitgrep.com[4] Opensource SaaS version of etsy/houndd (now called hound-search).

- statuspages.me: Status page aggregator with dynamic javascript for scraping each source using selector expressions.

- movies to watch aggregator: with links to sources to watch. It was hard then to get 3rd party deep links into streaming sites so included some torrent links. Got a DMCA phone call, so took it down. Combined thumbnails, summaries, actors(?), imdb ratings, links.

- java2cpp: Translate a moderately sized java app with test suite to c++, not 100% required final manual fixups.

- swift2java (or maybe it was java2swift, it's fuzzy now): translate Swift to Java obviously, using ANTLR4. Not 100% required final manual fixups.

- gui2log: to make an ASCII rendition of on-screen GUI widgets into an application log file when form submitted, so users couldn't complain that they saw X, but got Y.

- some basic stats/ML algorithms: k-nearest neighbour, RNN back-propagation, etc?

- Java in-memory DB: Small SQL-like memory tables with indexing/searching.

- wwwsqldesigner: This exists as opensource and I extended it to infer foreign key relationships based on naming conventions used in a MySQL schema. It was great for zooming around a large ERD.

- tracelog: combination of microservices parent/child span logging and generated high level events shown as a sequence diagram. Integrated with Loggly for full/verbose logs of selected high-level events.

- pcl2bmp downscaler: Reduce high resolution HP LaserJet (PCL5) printed to file to lower resolution bitmap pages for screen display (before retina DPI was common). It aimed to shrink same-color areas and preserve black/white transitions while reducing.

Sure, SafeQL[0] SQL library. It's been sitting in a close but not enough to promote state for a while. The main thing I wanted was to have generation of the bindings to existing DB schema. I also want to combine using Moja[1] datatypes for uniform handling of single/multi, normal/async, and errors.

I made a similar thing for Java moja Options as needed other projects. It sort-of works but it's not great.
