A startup, "DevOps Solutions" adopts Helm to streamline their Kubernetes deployments. You're a consultant tasked with creating a basic Helm Chart for n8n. It should be customizable for different environments using values.
Project mention: Show HN: Hatchet – Open-source distributed task queue | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-08
I don't know if I agree with the argument regarding durability vs elastic execution. If I can get both (with a nice API/DX) via something like Temporal (https://github.com/temporalio/temporal), what's the drawback here?
Project mention: Show HN: Hatchet – Open-source distributed task queue | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-08
Project mention: A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev | dev.to | 2024-02-05Activepieces - Build automation flows to connect several apps together in your app's backend. For example, send a Slack message or add a Google Sheet row when an event fires in your app. Free up to 5,000 tasks per month.
I'm really enjoying reading through the docs and the tutorial. We've created Lowdefy, a config web-stack which makes it really simple to build quite advanced web apps. We're writing everything in YAML, but it has it's limitations, specifically when doing config type checking and IDE extensions that go beyond just YAML.
I've been looking for a way to have typed objects in the config to do config suggestions and type checking.. PKL looks like it can do this for us. And with the JSON output we might even be able to get there with minimal effort.
Is there anyone here with some PKL experience that would be willing to answer some technical questions re the use of PKL for more advanced, nested config?
See Lowdefy:
Project mention: How do you deal with CI, project config, etc. falling out of sync across repos? | /r/ExperiencedDevs | 2023-12-06I like mage for Go and doit for Python.
author seems to be describing the kind of patterns you might make with https://argoproj.github.io/argo-workflows/ . or see for example https://github.com/couler-proj/couler , which is an sdk for describing tasks that may be submitted to different workflow engines on the backend.
it's a little confusing to me that the author seems to object to "pipelines" and then equate them with messaging-queues. for me at least, "pipeline" vs "workflow-engine" vs "scheduler" are all basically synonyms in this context. those things may or may not be implemented with a message-queue for persistence, but the persistence layer itself is usually below the level of abstraction that $current_problem is really concerned with. like the author says, eventually you have to track state/timestamps/logs, but you get that from the beginning if you start with a workflow engine.
i agree with author that message-queues should not be a knee-jerk response to most problems because the LoE for edge-cases/observability/monitoring is huge. (maybe reach for a queue only if you may actually overwhelm whatever the "scheduler" can handle.) but don't build the scheduler from scratch either.. use argowf, kubeflow, or a more opinionated framework like airflow, mlflow, databricks, aws lamda or step-functions. all/any of these should have config or api that's robust enough to express rate-limit/retry stuff. almost any of these choices has better observability out-of-the-box than you can easily get from a queue. but most importantly.. they provide idioms for handling failure that data-science folks and junior devs can work with. the right way to structure code is just much more clear and things like structuring messages/events, subclassing workers, repeating/retrying tasks, is just harder to mess up.
Project mention: PyPI new user and new project registrations temporarily suspended | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-20> Recently I've seen someone on Reddit trying to automate the creation of PyPI projects through GitHub Actions. The person was complaining that the first deployment couldn't use an API key for that project since it didn't exist. So I'm not surprised some people are trying to do the same for malicious purposes.
Sorry for the tangent, but: you can do this now! If you use trusted publishing, you can register a "pending publisher" for a project that doesn't exist yet. When the trusted publisher (like GitHub Actions) is used, it'll create the project[1].
All of this is supported transparently by the official publishing action for GitHub Actions[2].

A challenger to Solidity? Never heard of anyone else using this before.
Pretty interesting request, if SSH is not used, i would try using something like dask which uses tcp to connect and execute assuming your workers are in another machine.I also think something like covalent can be used to extend your own custom plugin in their ecosystem to connect how you want. We have a very custom private plugin written on top of covalent's to have a custom protocol to connect our central on-prem GPU machines to our local laptops that is rpc based, mostly for high performance as well as some mandate security from where the GPU machines are. Once done it is pretty much something like
As a very similar alternative to above, but without the need for a new field, you could install Dynamics 365 Workflow Tools (https://github.com/demianrasko/Dynamics-365-Workflow-Tools) and use the ismemberofteam workflow step (https://github.com/demianrasko/Dynamics-365-Workflow-Tools/blob/master/docs/IsMemberOfTeam.md) to check if the modified by user is in the back office team.
