Products that do what Bitdeli, a scripting platform for real-time data does
Hi fellow HNers, We just opened up Bitdeli for free public beta at https://bitdeli.com Bitdeli allows you to process real-time data with plain Python scripts and access the results over a friendly HTTP API. You can use it to create live visualizations and dashboards without having to worry about servers. See examples here: http://bl.ocks.org/2009621 and http://bl.ocks.org/1983818 We would love to hear your feedback and comments!

Hi HN! I’m Alex from Parabola (https://parabola.io). Parabola is a visual programming tool for creating functional data flows that everyone can use. It’s entirely drag-and-drop, handles data sizes much larger than a traditional spreadsheet, calculates everything live, and can run your flows on a schedule of your choosing. I used to work in strategy consulting, doing data analytics for SMBs and Fortune 500 companies. The amount of time wasted on menial tasks was astounding. Things like cleaning data, generating custom reports, creating human workflows to solve shortcomings in third…

Dear HN, I am Riwaj, the cofounder of dstack.ai (https://github.com/dstackai). A few months ago, we built an online service that allows users to publish data visualizations from Python or R. The idea was to build a tool that did not require additional programming or front-end development for publishing data visualizations. Such a code can be invoked from either Jupyter notebook, RMarkdown, Python, or R scripts. Once the data is pushed, it can be accessed via a browser. Open-sourcing dstack: During our customer discovery phase, we realized that dstack.ai should integrate a lot…

Hey HN, This is Adrian and David, and we're excited (and nervous) to show you basetool (https://basetool.io). Basetool helps companies view and manage all their data in one place. Companies have data in tons of places like BI tools, data warehouses, 3rd party services, and their databases. However, because the tools are not connected, it's a hassle to have visibility across the whole organization and even more difficult to safely share that data with the team or external collaborators. The vision is to give basetool access to your data source and get a tool that way above a…

Hi HN, we are so excited to be sharing this on here! Siege is the fastest and the simplest way to spin up a real-time data pipeline, which you can then query, filter, visualize with just clicks of some buttons, no need for any instrumentation or code changes. It works by capturing JSON data from your API transactions, transforming this data, and then storing it in an optimized columnar database for easy and fast querying. I've put together a 3-minute demo on Loom just now, showing you how I made real time dashboards in minutes:…

I built this over the weekend. Any feedback is appreciated. Please note you will need a WebGL enabled browser. Thank you for checking it out. --UPDATE-- HN Traffic is strangling earthbit. There is sporadic downtime due to the web services I am using, if no transactions appear after a few seconds, then please try again in an hour.

Hello community. Some time ago I was trying to create a project for my students using Hacker News data. As you might know, HN offers an official API [0], but it's based on Firebase and I felt it's main usage is to build clients, rather than consult data. I found out that Algolia also provides an official REST API [1]. It's exactly what I needed: the ability to "search" HN. Either by keywords, type of stories (Show HN, Ask HN, etc) and/or date. So I created a thin python wrapper on top of Algolia's Search API: https://github.com/santiagobasulto/python-hacker-news The…

Hi HN! I'm Nick, one of the cofounders of Bitping, and we'd like to share a tool that we've been working on for the past couple of years that lets you test network connectivity from real user devices around the world. We originally were part of a hackathon focused on building a product that is powered by micropayments and we settled on a network that could ping other network devices and users could be paid in fractions of a cent for performing said work. After winning the hackathon, we built an uptime monitoring service and discovered some discrepancies between our data and traditional…

Hi everyone, I’d like to introduce Amphi, a free and source-available visual data transformation tool. Amphi is a low-code tool designed for data preparation, manipulation and ETL tasks, whether you're working with files or databases, and it supports a wide range of data transformation operations. The main difference from tools like Alteryx or Knime is that Amphi is based on Python and generates native Python code (pandas and DuckDB) that you can export and run anywhere. You also have the flexibility to use any Python libraries and integrate custom code directly into your pipeline. It is…

Hey HN, In the months since we initially released Burr (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39917364), we have been hard at work. We wanted to share some of the most exciting changes we’ve made to build Burr out as a full-stack development framework for AI agents. In case you don’t recall, Burr is an open-source python library that makes it easier to build and debug GenAI applications & agents by representing them as graphs of simple python objects/functions. Burr only abstracts away system-level concerns (state persistence, debugging, observability), and does not…

Hi, A few months ago, I shared a tool I built for personal use to easily trace HTTP client requests in any Python app. It links requests to the corresponding Python code and comes with a nice UI. By easily, I mean: no external dependencies, no setup, no superuser rights, and no code modifications — just do "pip install httpdbg" and then launch your code using the "pyhttpdbg" command. That’s it. I received a lot of positive feedback — not just here, but also on social media, in podcasts, and beyond. So, thank you! Since I last introduced httpdbg, I’ve made many improvements — based on both my…

Hello everyone! My friend Ori Kabeli and I have been playing around with GPT-4 Vision as a way to control websites and complete complicated tasks online. We created a small proof of concept python package called pywebagent. pywebagent allows performing high level tasks in websites, accessible to developers as simple python functions. It is highly experimental, and only sometimes works, but we think it still might be useful to all you tinkerers out there. Feel free to contribute! Example Use Case: You can order things from amazon with one line of code. pywebagent.act(…
