Building a Rust-powered OSS startup

• cue

  28 3,181 9.1 Go

  Discontinued CUE has moved to https://github.com/cue-lang/cue (by cuelang)

  

Have you considered providing additional schema config options? Something that is more expressive and easier to write by . I can imagine something homegrown, or things like Cue, Dhall or HCL.

• terraform

  500 41,118 9.9 Go

  Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.

  

TL;DR: We've just launched our first 100% Rust open-source project synth- a declarative data generator. Think of it as a crossbreed between faker and Terraform. We'd love to hear what you think about it! Is it a good idea? A bad idea?

• 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.

  Discontinued The Declarative Data Generator

  

We're OpenQuery, a young open-source startup based in London. We recently got our first significant round of venture capital funding after going through YCombinator last summer. As a co, we try to find great solutions to very common developer workflow problems. We've decided to start by solving messy test data harnesses with a clean declarative test data generator. Our project is called synth. If you want a quick overview of what synth does, the docs are the best place to start.

  Discontinued HCL parser, serializer and deserializer in Rust

Yes! I really like HCL. There are a couple of HCL parsers for Rust, for example this crate but when I tried them out (admittedly almost a year ago for a different project) I couldn't get it to behave (this could be me and not the crate). I haven't checked out Cue or Dhall but will do.

• lalrpop

  25 2,865 8.0 Rust

  LR(1) parser generator for Rust

  

The end-state is as you said is something home-grown. Hopefully as Synth takes off and we add advanced features we'll need an expressive DSL. I've looked at implementing something like this with lalrpop and it's on the roadmap :)

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  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.
