Launch HN: Infisical (YC W23) – Open-source secrets manager for developers
Hi. I'm also working on an E2E secrets manager. https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak
A few tips.
1. It looks like I'm able to do account enumeration on your login page. For a secure app you want to make sure this is not possible.
- Ask HN: What are some good examples of Rust code bases to read and learn from?
-
Ask HN: Which CI/CD do you use for a monorepo?
You want to take a look at Earthly. https://earthly.dev/
This gives you a mix of docker and a makefile.
The best bit is you can test your pipeline locally and you are vendor agnostic.
I'm using it here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak

Ask HN: Where do you host images for your blog or landing pages?
I commit to a github repo and that gets deployed to cloudflare pages. https://pages.cloudflare.com/
I use Zola the static site generator. My repo is here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak/tree/main/www

Seeking advice on my AuthZ Implementation for web app.
You can see my migrations to switch on RLS here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak/blob/main/db/migrations/20220808094314_tenancy_isolation.sql

Launch HN: DeploySentinel (YC S22) – End-to-end tests that don't flake
Hi we are running selenium tests in our CI/CD pipeline.
We do actually generate a video of the tests running as an example see here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak/actions/runs/2787628672
We're not using cypress we use webdriver connected to a selenium docker instance.
Is that something you can connect to?

Ask HN: How to find a problem a solo founder could and would want to solve?
I can give you a concrete example if that helps.
I looked at the "secrets automation" space and my background is cryptography and web development.
I'm a solo developer so when I look at a problem I have to make the solution small enough that I can actually build it.
I also have to have an idea about how I will get people to use my product i.e. marketing.
In my case 1Password raised 620million in funding based on their acquisition of Secretshub which for me proves there is a market in secrets automation for developers.
I looked at the secretshub product and I was confident I could build it better with easier to use encryption and make it open source.
As the market is developers I feel writing blog articles about software development will give me a route to market.
So I started about 4 months ago. The product is now here https://cloak.software and source code is here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak
My first article about web development with rust has already had 16K views so I'm confident with the marketing approach. Now the hard works starts of turning visitors into paying users.
Hope this helps.

Dagger: a new way to build CI/CD pipelines
I've been using Earthly for about 6 months.
Earthly uses Dockerfile style syntax so I don't have to learn a new language, I can leverage my existing knowledge.
Another advantage is that in Earthly I can run up a docker compose within my pipeline so that I have selenium, envoy and postgres running for integration testing.
You can see my integration tests here https://github.com/purton-tech/cloak/blob/main/Earthfile#L14...
Is that possible in dagger?

POSIX sh is a better interpreter than python
Even in environments such as win32, we have https://frippery.org/busybox/ that is just fucking awesome. Staying the size below an 1mb while being extremely fast. Unlike the shitty python package which has 40mb archive size and leave breadcrumbs for me to cleanup all over my filesystem.

God's developer console
Look into busybox for windows https://frippery.org/busybox/. Pretty bad ass even with it’s downsides of missing applets and such

Does vim suck on windows?
Vim by itself means no supporting unix environment. It's useful to call out to powerful external tools not present by default on Windows. I fill that gap with busybox-w32. It's not a big deal once solved.
-
looking for a graphics library
Sure, it's not necessary, but a few simple, nice tools (<600kiB for an entire suite of extended unix utilities) makes thing a whole lot simpler on a platform devoid of nice tools.

Compress lots of files into lots of individual files?
To operate on many files you'll need better tools than what Windows gives you. One option is busybox-w32 (important caveat: doesn't support unicode paths), which will get you some basic command line tools. For example, to gzip compress every file under the current directory, including subdirectories (leaving the originals behind with -k):

Windows verison of cal
busybox-w32 includes a cal applet. If that's all you care about, you can just rename busybox.exe to cal.exe.

What's in your tool belt?
busybox-w32: standard unix utilities for Windows. It's a BusyBox port.

Makefile example project for Windows with source, include, libs and build folders. Also with a detailed explanation!
IHMO, even better is to just use POSIX sh in your Makefile and simply make it a build requirement. It's easy to obtain a reasonable sh even on Windows (Cygwin, MSYS2, busybox-w32), and to further support exactly this I include sh alongside make in my development kit distribution. This uniformity lets me hit all operating systems with the same Makefile. I use EXE from the environment to determine the binary file extension, if any.
