The idea behind cronicle is that because doing backups via cron is so common (like triggering a pg_dump), why not add a line to your cronfile to take care of the backups rotation once your dump is done ?
cronicle takes care of organizing the data in daily/weekly/etc directories, and deduplication too : all organization is done using symlinks, underlying dumps are deleted when no more symlinks point to it.
Scratched my own itch, but interested to know if it brings something new or if existing tools use same approach.
If you put your public email on your github profile, or put your email on public issue comments, you may be contacted regarding news of the repository you showed interest to.
Like getting feedback, you know.
Personnaly I would be pretty pleased that a maintainer made that effort.
I can totally understand that others person consider that spam ... Well just don't make your email public in that case.
Yes, when it occurs it totally breaks the experience of reading long reads on the kindle. This, and the fact that multi-pages articles are sometimes not properly fetched.
I'm working on generating perfect (all images, all pages) .mobi periodical files from rss feeds, send me a mail (in my profile) if you want to test a MVP when it is ready.
I wanted to backup a handful of folders in TM but couldn't find an easy way to do it.
So here it is, a ridiculously simple script that enable you to quickly edit a folders whitelist.
Tangential but ... could someone give me the name of the python library that made the front page last month and that "extends the standard lib" (itertools recipes, dates helper functions, etc)?
Can't find it using HN search.
Email in my profile. thks
Most of bank websites (in France at least) provide .QIF downloads, so I coded a tool to semi-automatically add categories to qif transactions by matching keywords from your past transactions history : https://github.com/Kraymer/qifqif
I use it with GnuCash but could work with ledger as long as ledger importer links categories with accounts.
You should give more details about what music can be played : from guests clients device and streamed to the host or solely music stored locally on the host computer ?
I expected to find that info in the FAQ.
An introduction video/screenshots on the front page would be good to.
Love the idea!
That is limitations I could live with, I'm interested to give it a go. Could you post the scripts on pastie/github by any chance to spare me some dev time? or my mail is in my profile
beets? the media library management system for obsessive-compulsive music geeks.
New contributors are always welcome to tackle the growing list of issues/wishes <https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/issues?state=open> !
I use beets as an importer (filename + id3 tags cleaning) and keep using iTunes for browsing/playing.
I glue the two together by using importfeeds plugin + Hazel(http://www.noodlesoft.com/hazel) to trigger iTunes import. Should probably blog about my setup as it's not the simplest one but works great.
I thought the main technical hurdle (for not dev crowd) in my current workflow was git as there exist a lot of good Markdown editors on all platforms ;)
I used to write my documents in Lyx too but spreading the tool amongst my colleagues involved a lot of evangelism.
Markdown is a backend storage easier to adopt as developers are used to it (stackoverflow, github) but it produces output for the web : no pagination, header/footer, etc.
Throw pandoc+tex template into the mix, and it starts to get really interesting : a quickly hacked markdown file transforms into nice pdf will all needed attributes.
But why stop there? Now that you have a build process, move it to a server and add some hooks to injects traceability infos (author, last edit date, commit hash...) into the generated document, etc...
I went down this road, and it works surprisingly well.
If you're trialling different solution for writing technical developer documentation, see a more precise description of the workflow that I pushed on my blog yesterday: http://kray.me/pro/doclegit-git-documentation-server/
(sorry for the copy quality, english not my first langage, corrections by mail are welcomed)
I have coded a python app in my spare time to auto-sync two subtitles streams (any langage) and maximize the time each dual-subtitle is displayed on screen. It just tries to merge two srt as smartly as possible.
I'm interested for feedbacks and test cases, my mail in my profile.
But sometimes, doubling amount text on screen is just not processable at a glance, fleex seems to have very appealing solutions to that : picking one of the langage based on difficulty, arrow key to get back in time and slow down playrate. Cant' wait to play with it!
