Hmm.. Gives me early vibes. Which reminds me, maybe I should start promoting my thing[0] too best of luck [0]: https://github.com/temphia/temphia

Your project looks really interesting. I've been looking into many different "plugin" architecture options (mainly with the goal to run untrusted js/ts code) and your extended readme sounds interesting. But i can tell it's early so i'm not fully seeing how this would be used (like an example folder). - I too have tried to think of how plugins could be "full-stack" with both sandboxing on BE & FE via iframe but i'm no…

thanks

yeah making core framework in fast low level language and making scripting/embed language on top is such underexplored area i think.

i have removed suborigin bashed frontend sandbox for now, inline iframe is just faster to iterate, i will bring back suborigin later. iframe related code would here.

https://github.com/temphia/temphia/blob/main/code/frontend/l... https://github.com/temphia/temphia/blob/main/code/frontend/e...

suborigin code is also same but template part would be in go template and you will need to setup (.myapp.com) domain name.

no i donot do use any wasm runtime snapshoting, i do cache the instance once they are run though so yeah first one will have latency.

i will try to post some demo/examples of app running later on, maybe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can you buffer requests to Twilio dynamically based on feedback? ie. Can the system be fed back number of undelivered messages and adjust throttle accordingly?

There is no throttling today based on outbound failures. But I think it is a pretty common use case for handling destination failures.

Something like - if x or x% events are failing in a pipeline, pause the pipeline for y minutes or until some one unpauses it.

I can look at adding it.

That would be amazing

We use a platform called Actions Express that I’m not most fond of. Any ideas of integrators with SeviceNow plugins? I’m basically doing web calls and parsing data, but the ServiceNow plugin is nice to have.

Not sure I understood the use case. Are you looking into integrate into SN platform? You can add a pipeline to integrate with SN platform using OOTB rest api or add scripted rest end points for custom integrations.

A ServiceNow integration is on my radar. But if you can provide more details I can definitely try to address it when I build the app. Please feel free to log an issue in github if you can provide any details or send an email to me (email in my profile).

Can this work for building pipelines for specific users? E.g. our customers can connect their CRM to our platform.

There are a couple of ways to address this:

1. Create a Source for each customer and send customer specific data to each source. Configured pipelines for each source will receive the event data and processes it.

2. Create one source with multiple pipelines connected to it. In each pipeline, you can drop processing the data based on any conditions.

#1 is preferred so you are sure each customer's data is only reaching the pipelines configured for that customer data.

So is this like an Open Source Zapier or at least with similar ambitions if not quite there yet ?

I wonder how cptn compares with ActivePieces. AP's been declared the "Open Source Zapier" and I have been having a blast with it.
