Re: Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
#492I think it's a little bit beyond "half" baked, but I built a thing I call Logsuck last year: https://github.com/jackbister/logsuck The idea is to have a free Splunk alternative which you can set up with just one binary. I use Splunk at work and love it, but it just doesn't seem like a product for solo developers (I can't even find a pricing page on splunk.com), and the primary free alternative, the ELK stack, seems a…
I've been looking into making something like that myself. My beef with current platforms is that they are good for extracting metrics and routing logs to their correct team (by service/deployment/...) but not so much for analysis. When there's a problem in my system, I want to bring up multiple views, manually annotate, highlight the new debug log statements I just added, mark events as good/bad from complicated rule…
I think I know what you mean! It does feel like there's something missing in Splunk when it comes to analyzing issues.
When there's a problem at work it's usually easy to see that something is wrong on a dashboard, but when I want to drill down into it I usually end up with ten tabs of different searches and Grafana dashboards that I'm trying to correlate between manually.
I haven't fully formed any ideas about how to tackle this since there are still fairly basic features missing in Logsuck that I need to work on first but it's definitely something I'll be thinking more about in the future!

#493https://gitlab.com/docmenthol/autotable
It's a datatable written in Elm. I wrote it early on while I was learning, so I'm certain there is a lot I could update about it. Even still, it does its job pretty well. Sorting, filtering, editing, and reordering columns are all there. The way it's constructed allows new features to be built on top of it without any need to learn a table (or component) API. Just interact with the table state directly, the types make it pretty easy.
One major problem is that columns are obnoxious to define. It's just a giant record type. And in general I'm just not happy with the code. I'll likely revisit this project again soon and rewrite some key parts.

#495I'm working in a relational language (https://tablam.org) that hopefully will be a great way to massage data and have in-built support for "linq/sql"-like queries across all the data sources (from site):
-- A column, aka: Vectors...
let qty := [10.5, 4.0, 3.0]
-- Like APL/kdb+ operations apply to more than scalars
prices * 16.0
-- The ? (query) operator allow to do SQL-like queries to anything
let doubled := qty ?select #0 * 2.0
let products := open("products.csv")
-- like files!
for p in products ?where #price > 0.0 do
print(p)
end
--so, we can do joins between anything:
for p in cross(products, qty) ?limit 10 do
print(p.products.price * p.qty)
end
---
My long-term goal is to provide an alternative to Access/Excel/FoxPro with a full suite of decoupled components (language + rdbms components + interactive data repl + form builder) to capture the spirit of what this kind of tools allow but with a more solid foundation.

#496https://documentation.page/ A documentation website generator for open source. No need to pollute your Github repo with html+css+etc etc files, just write markdown and point your domain there and it'll render it. Example output for a paid project (my own): https://statux.dev/ The main fear from multiple people is that the project might "go evil" at some point and add ads or similar to project's documentation. I defin…
Just contemplating doc solutions for the open source repo I maintain (5K+ stars). Would be happy to use https://documentation.page/. Ping me at my email / twitter (details in my profile).

#497https://cinetrii.com analyses reviews to infer possible inspirations behind a film. There are a bunch of things that could be improved with the text processing applied here. The wrong movie title is resolved occasionally, like failing to distinguish between an original and a remake, or a book. Sometimes the wrong part of an article is parsed, resulting in wrong connections. But I think it works overall, for the right…
great design and interesting content

I'm still in validation step, wanted to know if people are interested in such service before I jump in to development.
Honestly I just wanted to dive into development and dealing with code, but if I want a proper product I need to validate it first and I need to deal with people and make them top priority rather than my personal interest in coding :)

You should really run with that idea, it's simply brilliant ! (I am a tad jealous )

#500Dud[1] is a tool for storing, versioning, and reproducing large files alongside source code. Planning a more "formal" release in Q1. Dud : DVC :: Flask : Django [1]: https://kevin-hanselman.github.io/dud/getting_started/tour/
Cool! I'm excited to see more interest in this space after Boar development appears to have been abandoned, and no one is willing to take on converting it into Python 3.x. I have a similar project also in Go (see DupVer elsewhere in this thread) though it is based on a centralized repo.
