https://scipipe.org - A pipeline tool for shell commands by a declarative flow-based API in Go

Github link: https://github.com/scipipe/scipipe

There are many pipeline tools for shell commands, but a majority has one or more limitations in their API which makes certain complex pipelines impossible or really hard to write.

We were pushing the limits of all the tools we tried, so developed our own, and implemented it in Go, with a declarative API for defining the data flow dependencies, instead of inventing yet another DSL. This has allowed us great flexibility in developing also complex pipelines, e.g. combining parameter sweeps nested with cross-validation implemented as workflow constructs.

SciPipe is also unique in providing an audit report for every single output of the workflow, in a structured JSON format. A helper tool allows converting these reports to either an HTML report, a PDF, or a Bash script that will generate the one accompanying output file from scratch.

An extra cool things is that, because the audit reports live alongside output files, if you run a scipipe workflow that uses files generated by another scipipe workflow, it will pick up also all the history for the input files generated by this earlier workflow, meaning that you get a 100% complete audit report, even if your analysis spans multiple workflows!

No JS, and easy to self host. It’s a place to put your dotfiles. It comes with a ClI loosely based on git for editing, versioning, pushing, and pulling.

* Install files without the CLI: `curl https://dotfilehub.com/knoebber/vim >> ~/.vimrc`

It seems like Covid left a lot of restaurants scrambling for contactless ordering solutions. They can be nice, but I find it annoying when I have to use my phone to look at a menu or to make an order. How does your system work?

My side project is https://dotfilehub.com

It’s a bare bones version control system for single files + a web interface.

I've always found various solutions that use git for sharing configuration files cumbersome. I set out to make my own simple version control system, and a lightweight web application where I can browse and edit them remotely. The main idea is that paths are aliased to simple names, so I can say `dotfile pull i3` and it will install https://dotfilehub.com/knoebber/i3 to ~/.config/i3/config

Overall the project is stable and I use it daily for all sorts of miscellaneous files.
