What's Your Current Project?
-
On Friday my big project was teaching myself how to make RPMs so that I could do Red Hat / CentOS / Suse packaging of my own stuff. Very handy.
-
Today it is BASH scripting. Nothing crazy but cURL automation and trying to do it right with everything tied up neatly in recursive functions and whatnot. Actually documenting this script. Doing some serious screen scraping stuff. I've done it before with automation frameworks but trying to clean up an old project and redo it with pure BASH to make things easier to maintain. If it goes well, will be deploying to a temporarily Rackspace instance for processing. The script will feed MySQL when it is done.

Saturday was reinstalling a VMWare host server as noted in my other thread.
This morning was updating the Ubiquiti EdgeRouters at a client and making new backups of the virtual machines on the newly reinstalled server from yesterday. -
My project for Sunday was to build a Ikea dresser for my wife. Also make beef biscuit for the first time.

@scottalanmiller On the hunt for my next project. Thinking about writing a PowerShell script that would track the disk usage over time and put in a HTML graph using Google visualizations. But honestly not sure I'll go through the work since most people have this with their monitoring software. It's one of those fun to do projects, but not sure it would serve a real purpose.
Have a new version of my Employee Directory that I've been sitting on for a couple of months now that uses an INI file to configure instead of a ton of parameters. Not sure why I haven't put it out there yet other than I've only tested it during development and not against a real AD over time. All I have access to is my little test lab now

Also creating firewall using linuxUse CentOS for that. Works great. DokuWiki is really handy because it does not need a database so it is extremely easy to instanll, manage and backup.

WordPress should be on CentOS too, with MySQL or MariaDB.
