peterwwillis/README.md

👋 Hello! My name is Peter, and I write code.

I've been involved in open-source development for about 20 years. In that time I've written custom software, started open-source projects, and contributed to Linux distributions and other FOSS projects. I've also created and maintained thousands of FOSS software packages for corporate Linux distributions.

🔭 I’m currently working on ...


Some of my projects have been lost to time, and some are closed-source, but below is some of the FOSS stuff I could still find.

Programming

Helm

  • docker-in-docker - A Helm chart to install a Docker-in-Docker service in a Kubernetes cluster

Python

  • dump-google-keep-notes - Dumps Google Keep to Markdown files with front matter for the metadata.
  • bump-version-yaml - Bump the version number in a YAML file, using a schema file to determine what part of the YAML gets updated, and how.
  • fix-atlassian-links - Simple search and replace on Confluence pages.
  • junkdrawer - Small miscellaneous scripts.

Shell

  • Terraformsh - A wrapper for Terraform to provide hierarchical, DRY terraform configs, and sane best-practices. Simpler than Terragrunt.
  • packersh - Like the Terraform wrapper, but for Packer.
  • jenkins-bootstrap.sh - Ever needed to set up Jenkins? This script will do everything for you as code according to best practices.
  • attach_ebs.sh - Ever needed to attach an EBS volume to an EC2 instance at boot time?
  • direnvsh - Ever wanted to run a command while inheriting environment variables recursively from a reverse hierarchy?
  • repeat.sh - Ever wanted to run a couple commands over and over again with some added features?
  • patch-solr-log4j - If When Log4j vulnerability comes back, patch it quickly.
  • jenkins-plugin-manager - Jenkins's new plugin manager doesn't resolve dependencies properly.
  • newrelic_api_cli - NewRelic didn't used to support their whole API in Terraform, so you still had to script stuff directly.
  • twoman.sh - An example of a two-man authentication file crypto system.
  • test.sh - A minimal test framework in Bourne Shell.
  • clinst - Download and install statically-compiled programs, and then select specific versions of them to run from different directories.
  • junkdrawer - Small miscellaneous scripts.

Perl

  • create-dvd - Command-line wrapper to make it easier to burn a video DVD
  • findphonewords.pl - Find English words in phone numbers
  • ldapcachder.pl - A rudimentary LDAP proxy. Caches and pools connections to an LDAP server so you don't hit connection limits.
  • print_network_map.pl - Given an NMAP XML file, print a list of all the routes and hosts found.
  • pop3download.pl - A POP3 and IMAPv4 mail fetcher. Like Fetchmail, but less buggy.
  • user_login.pl - User authentication for OpenVPN.
  • bluelock.pl - Lock a desktop when a Bluetooth device goes out of range.
  • deldupes.pl - Delete duplicate files
  • dumpfd.pl - Dump the file descriptors of a running process
  • encsh.pl - Turn any interpreted script into an encrypted program that never stores its source code on disk
  • meminfo.pl - Summarize memory use of Linux processes
  • piratespeak.pl - Substitute words and phrases with pirate speak
  • dynamic-dnsmasq.pl - A Dynamic DNS HTTP API backend. It allows dnsmasq to be updated via a Dynamic DNS client. One of the first pieces of OSS code I wrote.
  • junkdrawer - Small miscellaneous scripts.

C code

  • etherdump - A tiny tcpdump, with no dynamic memory. Packet processing is built-in, not from libpcap. Useful on embedded machines, or just to learn about tcp/ip protocols.
  • ddnsu - A Dynamic DNS update client supporting No-IP and DynDNS. Pretty small, suitable for embedded environments.
  • eject - The eject applet for Busybox
