Want to convert from any #Pandoc-compatible file format to #Scribus? Just use my latest #sideProject (´。• ω •。`)

codeberg.org/foxy/scribus-writ

I wrote this to lighten the workload of the board behind my Master's programme's magazine. The Pandoc writer itself is in pure #Lua. Only the GUI wrapper had to be necessarily written in #Python (since it is a Scribus plugin).

This is just beautiful. The project uses #MariaDB to store all the collected data. It makes heavy use of #API endpoints which will be a top priority not only for the internal workings. My focus mostly lies in making this as flexible as possible so people can configure it exactly as they need it. Configuration will be in #yaml.

What i got so far is:

  • packet capturing (from client, sent to the control server)
  • a webhook (which will be a drop-in replacement for #Discord's since a lot of services support sending logs to discord webhooks)

What's planned:

  • Log file monitoring (like #Fail2Ban, but more advanced and easier to configure)
  • A fully featured dashboard which visualizes the data and gives you control and a transparent overview of your network activity.
  • IP banning (multiple ways to make it flexible)
  • Maybe even some advanced responses (like reporting all ports as open for nmap scans)

I would be very interested to know what you think. Ideas, criticism and questions are very welcome. As soon as the base is working, i will push it to #Github.

Who said you can't write your own rich text editor from scratch in #JavaFx. I made it for my side project. Now it will be even easier for others, because JavaFx24 already has an experimental component that handles this.

It took me several months (after day job) to create the first version. It is not a WebView or RichTextFx, I had to take care of everything from the scratch (how the caret should blink, how to navigate between characters using the keyboard, how the undo/redo action should be implemented). Even though it was almost a year ago, this is the part of my project that I am most proud of.

It may still have some issues, but you can check out how it works at keepmark.io/.

My esteemed followers, you have posted a total of 375,809 statuses to the #fediverse. 22% of you have posted in the last 24h. You are a chatty bunch! ;-)

Check out my new #sideproject: *fedi-followers*. A privacy-friendly fediverse #followers explorer as #localonly #staticwebapp, decentrally hosted on the #ipfs. See who's actually following (and unfollowing) you over time and much more.

Dejadme compartir el #sideproject en el que ando ahora, y que tiene mucho que ver con el #fediverso:

- La idea gira en torno a "Quizá los medios no estén en Mastodon. Las noticias sí"
- He creado la instancia masto.news
- No se trata de replicar noticias con RSS, sino de darle un criterio periodístico y de actualidad

Tengo tres cuentas ya:
- @politica_esp
- @baloncesto
- @vigo

Os animo a seguirlas y a darme feedback. Tengo pendiente un post, pero no podía aguantarme más :blobparty:

A little #sideProject I play with is making little #battery "surrogates" or dummy batteries. They let you debug circuit power issues or design goals, or let you make a battery-powered device into a much longer-lived device by using a larger battery or power supply.

They've been very useful for me, so I share them a bit too.

I've just recently made a #CR1632 sized one which is quite a challenge to fabricate. It's very tiny with tinier routing channels.
