I started this month with a week of vacation which was followed by a small planned surgery and two weeks of sick leave. Nonetheless, I packaged and uploaded new releases of a couple of packages:
- swayidle updated to version 1.9.0-1
- swaylock updated to version 1.8.4-1
- foot updated to version 1.25.0-1
- swayimg updated to version 4.6-1
- scdoc updated to version 1.11.4-1
- wofi updated to version 1.5.1-1
- xdg-desktop-portal-wlr updated to version 0.8.0-1
Besides that I reactivated I project I started in summer 2024: debiverse.org. The idea of that was to have interfaces to Debian bugs and packages that are usable on mobile devices (I know, ludicrous!). Back then I started with Flask and Sqlalchemy, but that soon got out of hand. I now switched the whole stack to FastAPI and SQLModel which makes it a lot easier to manage. And the upside is that it comes with an API and OpenAPI docs. For the rendered HTML pages I use Jinja2 with Tailwind as CSS framework. I am currently using udd-mirror as database backend, which works pretty good (for this single user project). It would be nice to have some of the data in a faster index, like Typesense or Meilisearch. This way it would be possible to have faceted search or more performant full text search. But I haven’t found any software that could provide this that is packaged in Debian.
