earthly
Super simple build framework with fast, repeatable builds and an instantly familiar syntax – like Dockerfile and Makefile had a baby.
Project mention: Cache is King: A guide for Docker layer caching in GitHub Actions | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-07Also CACHE keyword, for cache mounts. Makes incremental tools like compilers work well in the context of dockerfiles and layer caches.
That can extend beyond just producing docker iamges as well. Under the covers the CACHE keyword is how lib/rust in Earthly makes building Rust artifacts in CI faster.
-
WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

Project mention: Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-15
The fact that I couldn't point to one page on the docs that shows the tl;dr or the what problem is this solving
https://docs.dagger.io/quickstart/562821/hello just emits "Hello, world!" which is fantastic if you're writing a programming language but less helpful if you're trying to replace a CI/CD pipeline. Then, https://docs.dagger.io/quickstart/292472/arguments doubles down on that fallacy by going whole hog into "if you need printf in your pipline, dagger's got your back". The subsequent pages have a lot of english with little concrete examples of what's being shown.
I summarized my complaint in the linked thread as "less cowsay in the examples" but to be honest there are upteen bazillion GitHub Actions out in the world, not the very least of which your GHA pipelines use some https://github.com/dagger/dagger/blob/v0.10.2/.github/workfl... https://github.com/dagger/dagger/blob/v0.10.2/.github/workfl... so demonstrate to a potential user how they'd run any such pipeline in dagger, locally, or in Jenkins, or whatever by leveraging reusable CI functions that setup go or run trivy
Related to that, I was going to say "try incorporating some of the dagger that builds dagger" but while digging up an example, it seems that dagger doesn't make use of the functions yet <https://github.com/dagger/dagger/tree/v0.10.2/ci#readme> which is made worse by the perpetual reference to them as their internal codename of Zenith. So, even if it's not invoked by CI yet, pointing to a WIP PR or branch or something to give folks who have CI/CD problems in their head something concrete to map into how GHA or GitLabCI or Jenkins or something would go a long way

Try this awesome tool https://github.com/adnanh/webhook and you can make any bot you wish

Atlantis is a pull request automation tool that works well with plain Terraform right away. But what if we're already using Terramate to generate Terraform code?
-
Project mention: [LOOKING] Social media framework for ARM. Something able to connect many types of endpoints together using a GUI - I remember using one in the past, it was built using go-lang | /r/raspberry_pi | 2023-05-05
Found it https://github.com/muesli/beehive

InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

I have tried the following. 1. Login to Okta via browser programatically using go-rod. Which I managed to do so successfully, but I'm failing to load up Slack as it's stuck in the browser loader screen for Slack. 2. I tried to authenticate via Okta RESTful API. So far, I have managed to authenticate using {{domain}}/api/v1/authn, and then subsequently using MFA via the verify endpoint {{domain}}/api/v1/authn/factors/{{factorID}}/verify which returns me a sessionToken. From here, I can successfully create a sessionCookie which have proven quite useless to me. Perhaps I am doing it wrongly.

If you omit sudo, then you can move the binary yourself.
And of course, there's nothing stopping you visiting the releases page - or installing my tap and getting it from Brew!
-
dockertest
Write better integration tests! Dockertest helps you boot up ephermal docker images for your Go tests with minimal work.
I am using https://github.com/ory/dockertest for tests, specifically for databases. Is there any advantage to use Testcontainers?
-
Project mention: I'm a little sacred after finding information about digital footprint. So if anyone with the knowledge about it could you please give me a hand understanding it ? | /r/privacy | 2023-06-11
MOSINT is an open-source tool, and is quite trustworthy in the community. It does not contain any malware or viruses. Just clone their GitHub repository and follow the instructions mentioned there.

testcontainers-go
Testcontainers for Go is a Go package that makes it simple to create and clean up container-based dependencies for automated integration/smoke tests. The clean, easy-to-use API enables developers to programmatically define containers that should be run as part of a test and clean up those resources when the test is done.
Let's first look at the original version of the test, in this case, an end-to-end, using testcontainers.
-
Yeah this is the easiest route. You could also trying something like assh which allows you more flexibility.
-
Project mention: Is there a tool to monitor container images version locally and notify if there are updates? | /r/selfhosted | 2023-12-10
-
kube-score
Kubernetes object analysis with recommendations for improved reliability and security. kube-score actively prevents downtime and bugs in your Kubernetes YAML and Charts. Static code analysis for Kubernetes.

Project mention: What is it about Webhooks and Why you should care? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-05

AutoSpotting
Saves up to 90% of AWS EC2 costs by automating the use of spot instances on existing AutoScaling groups. Installs in minutes using CloudFormation or Terraform. Convenient to deploy at scale using StackSets. Uses tagging to avoid launch configuration changes. Automated spot termination handling. Reliable fallback to on-demand instances.
Project mention: Farewell to the Era of Cheap EC2 Spot Instances | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-05There's a service that handles obtaining the cheapest spot instances to your specs by a former aws engineer https://github.com/LeanerCloud/AutoSpotting
Effectively, it starts up cheap spot instances (based on specified criteria) across a variety of instance types to replace whatever regular instance in an autoscaling group comes online and then spins down the regular instance.
EG: That m4a you wanted may be expensive... but nobody is using m4ad so it's 85% off and it meets the specified CPU/RAM requirements... auto spotting will spin it up instead.
Having used it on and off over the years it is sometimes eyebrow raising to see 4xl boxes running cheaper than the xl box they replaced :)
-
playwright-go
Playwright for Go a browser automation library to control Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API.
-
dagu
Yet another cron alternative with a Web UI, but with much more capabilities. It aims to solve greater problems.
