24 alternatives to Rivers – a Rust/Python orchestrator with native OIDC and forward auth
I've been building Rivers for the past 7 months, an asset-based orchestrator. The core components such as planning, scheduling etc are in Rust and the user facing API is in Python. My most recent release adds OIDC and forward auth support. Security shouldn't be paywalled :)

Hi HN — I’m learning Rust and decided to build a universal CLI for running code in many languages. The tool, Run, aims to be a single, minimal dependency utility for: running one-off snippets (from CLI flags), running files, reading and executing piped stdin, and providing language-specific REPLs that you can switch between interactively. I designed it to support both interpreted languages (Python, JS, Ruby, etc.) and compiled languages (Rust, Go, C/C++). It detects languages from flags or file extensions, can compile temporary files for compiled languages, and exposes a unified REPL…

I’m sure many of you are familiar, but there’s a treacherous gap between finding (or building) a model that works in PyTorch, and getting that deployed into your application, especially in consumer-facing applications. I’ve been very interested in solving this problem with a great developer experience. Over time, I gradually realized that the highest-impact thing to have was a way to go from existing Python code to a self-contained native binary—in other words, a Python compiler. I was already pretty familiar with a successful attempt: when Apple introduced armv8 on the iPhone 5s, they…

TL;DR- Libninja will generate world-class client libraries for you, without you needing to fiddle with openapi-generator, maintain build pipelines, and so forth. If you just want Rust, reach out, and I'll create your client library at no cost, because I want to help Rust's ecosystem grow. -- Hi HN, I got into Rust in a big way about 9 months ago. While the language is quickly maturing, one large gap in the ecosystem is immature or non-existent client libraries for common API services like Plaid, Stripe, Twilio, Github, Slack, and so on. The existing openapi-generator templates create Rust…

Hi everyone, I built a runtime to isolate untrusted code using wasm sandboxes. Basically, it protects your host system from problems that untrusted code can cause. We’ve had a great discussion about sandboxing in Python lately that elaborates a bit more on the problem [1]. In TypeScript, wasm integration is even more natural thanks to the close proximity between both ecosystems. The core is built in Rust. On top of that, I use WASI 0.2 via wasmtime and the component model, along with custom SDKs that keep things as idiomatic as possible. For example, in Python we have a simple decorator:…

tl;dr we’re releasing python bindings for writing stream processing jobs using the Denormalized Rust library. Hey HN, A few months ago we released Denormalized, our embeddable stream processing engine written in rust [0]. Today we’re excited to showcase python bindings for the library. Python is still very much the language of data and we wanted to make it easy for more engineers to write fast streaming jobs without having to learn Rust. Currently, you can use the library to write streaming aggregations, stream joins, and user defined aggregate functions (thought the API for this is quite…
