Forgejo has auto mirroring built in, it’ll periodically sync the repos you add. The disadvantage is you have to add them manually. Initially I wanted a list of my started github repos synced to my forgejo instance and just added them one by one. A simple cron job might be enough to do that, but last time I checked github didn’t have an API for fetching started repositories.

The F-Droid apk crashes immediately upon launch

Isn’t VST pretty much a wild west anyway? I wonder how much is this really gonna help to standardize the tools/plugins

Mainly use it as a documentation search for APIs I’m not familiar with, or when I’m not sure what options there are to approach a problem. I work with unreal engine a lot, so I’d get a few pointers from an LLM first, then go read the source code of those APIs and inplement the rest myself.

I guess it can go both ways, but I’d probably put nixos under minimal and experienced branch

That’s a great analogy, I’m going to try to use it at my place, next time I need to explain tech debt

That sounds like a good alternative for me. I didn’t use lidarr to pull in new releases, mainly to tag and organise the files on disk, I’d mostly import albums manually when I come across something I want. So I wanna drop an album in some import directory, get it tagged with listenbrainz data and placed in the right place. Is that achievable with beets?

I’ve got the same setup and have been waiting for the lidarr cache API to get fixed but it has been taking ages. Are you running beets at the same time as lidarr and how does it compare functionality wise? Would you be able to switch from lidarr or are you planning to go back to it eventually? I realized that having to rely on stability of someone else’s cache server is not ideal.

If the image metadata contains tags, they will be imported into immich as well. At least all my Google Photos tags got imported no problem.

ScratchMark sounds great. For an icon, why not an actual scratch mark across a few pages? You know, the typical 3 ripped scratches, maybe with a sneaky paw print in the corner of the pages.

If only it wasn’t paywalled

HTMX is great by I don’t think it’s what OP needs since the input and desired output is not hypermedia in the first place.

Honestly not sure about Swagger, I’ve only ever used swagger-ui to show the API docs on a webpage. OpenAPI as a standard and openapi-generator are not abandoned and quite active. I’ll give you an example of how I use it.

I have a FastAPI server in python that defines some endpoints and data models that it can work with, it exports an openapi.json definition. I also have a common schemas library defined with pydantic that also exports an openapi.json (python was chosen to make it easier for other team members to make quick changes). This schemas library is also imported in the FastAPI app, basically only the data models are shared.

I use the FastAPI/openapi.json to generate C++ code in one application (the end user app) using the openapi-generator-cli, serialize/deserialize is handled by the generated code, since the pydantic schema is a dependency of the FastAPI server, both the endpoints and data models get generated. The pydantic/openapi.json is also used by our frontend written in typescript to generate data models only since the frontend doesn’t need to call FastAPI directly but it has an option to in the future by generating from FastAPI/openapi.json instead.

This ensures that we’re using the same schema across all codebases. When I make changes to the schema, the code gets re-generated and included in the new c++/web app builds. There’s multiple ways to go about versioning, but for data only schema I’d just keep it backwards compatible forever (by adding new props as optional field rather than required and slowly deprecating/removing props that are no longer used).

I found this to be more convoluted than just using something like gRPC/Protobuf (which can also be serialized from JSON), I’ve used it before and it was great. But for other devs that need to change a few lines of python and not having to deal with protobuf compiler, it’s a more frictionless solution at the cost of more moving parts and some CICD setup on my side.
