# Projects
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some of the things I've been working on! You can see some bigger, long-standing projects I've got at the bottom or a running log of the smaller things I've been doing laterly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Smaller Things
|
||||
|
||||
* **A couple small tweaks to society-voting** (2025-04-07)
|
||||
* Rewrote some of the layout for presenter mode and fixed a bug ([pr 1](https://github.com/CSSUoB/society-voting/pull/55), [pr 2](https://github.com/CSSUoB/society-voting/pull/56))
|
||||
* **Wrote some VBA in Excel** (2025-04-04)
|
||||
* Hacked an Excel spreadsheet around to make a quick little tool to use at work
|
||||
* Part of my job involves copying some data out of a Sharepoint database, formatting it and sending it on, which up until now was done manually.
|
||||
* This is trivial to automate with a Python script, but then there was interest from the rest of the team in using it - none of whom are particularly technically inclined (plus getting them to download and run a "random executable", ie. a Python interpreter, seems like a bit sketch)
|
||||
* So I rewrote it all in VBA and threw it in an Excel macro-enabled spreadsheet alongside a quick UI using some text boxes and buttons.
|
||||
* This was the best option considering the existing constraints around (not) sharing personal data and running random executables and also because it fitted fairly well in with out existing workflows.
|
||||
* Overall, not a horrendous experience. Fun to do something a bit different for a change.
|
||||
* **Hackathon Game** (2025-03-23)
|
||||
* Made a little game using PyGame at a hackathon - it's kinda like a cross between Papa's Pizzeria and Papers Please
|
||||
* Everything was built from scratch in 24 hours, including all the pixel art (thanks Nathan!!)
|
||||
* [Repo](https://git.tdpain.net/codemicro/birminghack-2025) 
|
||||
* **Small website tweaks** (2025-03-19)
|
||||
* Moved dependency management to `uv` and updated the Dockerfile to use that accordingly
|
||||
* Replaced a very outdated dependency on `pyinotify` in favour of `inotify` (this stopped me upgrading past Python 3.11 because they removed an API `pynotify` needed in 3.12)
|
||||
* Upgraded the generator's Python version to 3.14 (from 3.10 lol)
|
||||
* **Added a backlight block to [`cdmbar`](https://git.tdpain.net/codemicro/bar)** (2025-03-05)
|
||||
* **Small contributions to [MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org)** (2025-02-26)
|
||||
* As well as correcting some data for other albums, I created [a record for a new release I purchased](https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/b17a7b47-189d-4598-8c55-24ecd6f261a9)
|
||||
* **Setting up [Navidrome](https://navidrome.org) and beginning to build out my music collection** (2025-02-21)
|
||||
* Lately I've been wanting to start building up my own library of music that I own and control and is of better quality than what you'd find on streaming services
|
||||
* I picked Navidrome to manage that collection, and provide a nice API to use it on clients across my devices
|
||||
* So far, so good! It's running on the newly-upgraded `wall-e` and I'm using [Copyparty](https://github.com/9001/copyparty) to upload files to be ingested into it along with [Feishin](https://github.com/jeffvli/feishin) and [Symfonium](https://www.symfonium.app/) as clients.
|
||||
* Listening to lossless FLACs compared to mashed streaming audio is like being enveloped in a warm embrace of rich sound that you never realised you were missing
|
||||
* **Moving `wall-e` to new hardware** (2025-02-15)
|
||||
* `wall-e` is my home server that I use to run Gitlab and some other file storage services. Historically, this has been run on a [ThinkCentre M73 Tiny](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=thinkcentre+m73+tiny&iax=images&ia=images) and that's been all well and good, but I was starting to need an upgrade on the 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
|
||||
* I decided to upgrade to [a ThinkCentre M710s](./thinkcentre.jpg) and toss a terabyte of spinning rust in it - plus I now have actual DIMM slots to add more RAM and I get a slightly newer and faster CPU (we're now rocking a Intel i5-7400 @ 3.5GHz!) so big wins all round.
|
||||
* The only hitches I had were:
|
||||
* Taking about an hour to work out that I needed to switch the BIOS to use legacy boot because that's how the boot SSD that I was physically moving over was partitioned
|
||||
* Needing to edit `/etc/network/interfaces` to adjust for the new ethernet adapter name before I could connect to the internet
|
||||
* **[NowPlaying](https://git.tdpain.net/codemicro/now-playing)** (2025-02-14)
|
||||
* A teeny tiny web service to fetch your latest Spotify song and expose it as a basic API endpoint
|
||||
* This is used to power the "the last song I listened to on Spotify" thing on my homepage
|
||||
* **Switching [Walrss](https://github.com/codemicro/walrss) to use index-based feed filtering (and other improvements)** (2025-02-11)
|
||||
* Historically, Walrss has filtered feed items in the digests it generates using the time of each item, selecting only items that have been published since the last run.
|
||||
* This is unreliable since feed items do not always have an accurate date or any date at all - instead, it's best to use the feed item ID to remember what has been seen before and only send the new stuff down the wire, which is what Walrss now does.
|
||||
* **Moving all my services to use Postfix as an MTA** (2025-02-09)
|
||||
* I run quite a few services that send email, each of which has historically been set up to reach out to SMTP services like Fastmail and Sendgrid to send their mail.
|
||||
* This meant each service had its own API key and required a slightly annoying configuration process each time
|
||||
* Each of my servers now runs an instance of [Postfix in a Docker](https://git.tdpain.net/pkg/docker-postfix) container that accepts incoming mail from other containers and forwards it on to Fastmail.
|
||||
* Now, as opposed to having 8 different SMTP configurations littered about across multiple servers and email providers, I have 2 configurations, one per server, both pointing at Fastmail. Easy!
|
||||
* `The log begins here!`
