Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

pyinfra – automates infrastructure using Python

Show HN: A new open-source automation tool as an alternative to Ansible/Salt
There is https://pyinfra.com/
As a sidenote, I also made a small experiment a while ago : https://github.com/linkdd/tricorder/
But it's a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem. Without users, I don't know how it should be used, without features I won't get any users. So for now, it's in a state of "I'll address bug reports and feature requests, but I won't actively develop it".

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
I like https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra. "pyinfra automates infrastructure using Python"
Only played with it for a little but it seems well designed an simpler alternative to ansible, chef and other such things.
-
Interesting Uses of Ansible's ternary filter
Haven't used it in anger yet, but I have high hopes for PyInfra: https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra
-
How to manage multiple Wagtail sites from central point
pyinfra - https://pyinfra.com/ - Pyinfra is simpler for me than Ansible. I completed the entire deployment in one afternoon, from installing and configuring the VPS server from scratch to deploying the application and automatically restoring the database from a backup.

How do you guys handle server automation?
I’ve replaced Ansible with PyInfra where ever possible. https://pyinfra.com/ is very clean, and fast but lacks the shear amount of automation that can be found with Ansible.
-
What Ansible is capable to do that Python doesn't?
Some folks don't like YAML all that well, and I can understand where they are coming from. I wish Ansible provided a good Python API so that playbooks could be written in Python easier. But there is a project called PyInfra that is trying to do something similiar to Ansible, using Python as the configuration language. https://pyinfra.com/ It is still pretty new so not got nearly as many modules written for it yet.

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
I have a work mac, work linux, and home mac. I want the same terminal-based development environment on all of them, but each requires just a little bit of customization.
For example, the .gitconfig for work is different from home (e.g. my username/email). Ditto for my .ssh/config and my shell aliases.
I also use Nix to manage all my tools, and the home-manager configuration is slightly different between mac & linux due to platform support.
I've gone through a few iterations of home-built solutions, including extending homeshick[1], before discovering YADM which implemented everything I had done but better.

How do you manage your shell scripts?
I do roughly the same and then manage them with 'homeshick' ( https://github.com/andsens/homeshick )
-
VIM for remote server file editing
Have a look at https://github.com/andsens/homeshick project, it makes this workflow much easier.

Ask HN: How do you sync your computers development configurations/environment?
Homeshick for dotfiles: https://github.com/andsens/homeshick
Docker for Obsidian and Alfred syncing - the three target limit on the free tier is just barely enough for 2 of my own computers and my work laptop.
I've also got a Brewfile for installing the basic tooling on macOS
I also have a "how to set up a new computer/server" document on Notion that I use so I don't forget any steps.
- Fish 3.4.0
- Homeshick – Git dotfiles synchronizer written in bash
-
Fish Shell 3.2.0 Released
This is the exact reason I use Fish. The only thing I _need_ to get installed on random servers is Fish itself.
No need to install and configure oh-my-$shell or other huge monstrosities. Most of my stuff comes from a simple homeshick[1] sync with a few files in it.

What are some alternatives?
Ansible - Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy and maintain. Automate everything from code deployment to network configuration to cloud management, in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems. https://docs.ansible.com.
GNU Stow - GNU Stow - mirror of savannah git repository occasionally with more bleeding-edge branches
Fabric - Simple, Pythonic remote execution and deployment.
homesick - Your home directory is your castle. Don't leave your dotfiles behind.
psutil - Cross-platform lib for process and system monitoring in Python
yadm - Yet Another Dotfiles Manager
Docker Compose - Define and run multi-container applications with Docker
letsencrypt - Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.
Chef - Chef Infra, a powerful automation platform that transforms infrastructure into code automating how infrastructure is configured, deployed and managed across any environment, at any scale
SaltStack - Software to automate the management and configuration of any infrastructure or application at scale. Get access to the Salt software package repository here:
rcm - rc file (dotfile) management
