Products that do what YAML Validator –A simple Docker-based YAML checker does

Hi HN, I made a tiny tool called YAML Validator that checks your YAML files with one Docker command — no installs, no setup, no excuses. It does: - Syntax checks - yamllint linting - checkov security scanning - All in one lightweight, zero-config container --------------------------------------------------------- How to use: docker run -v "$(pwd):/data" pooyanazad/yaml-checker Optional alias (for .bashrc / .zshrc): alias ytest='docker run -v "$(pwd):/data" pooyanazad/yaml-checker' Then simply call: ytest sample.yaml YAML powers CI/CD, configs, infra ,and…

    Hi HN! I’m excited to share Holos, a Go command line tool we wrote to fill the configuration management gap in Kubernetes. Holos uses CUE to configure software distributed with Helm and Kustomize using a well defined, type safe language eliminating the need to template YAML. You probably know (or are) someone who has suffered with the complexity of plain text YAML templates and merging multiple values.yaml files together to configure software running in Kubernetes. We built Holos so we don’t have to template YAML but we can still integrate software distributed with Helm and Kustomize…

    I found it odd there wasn’t a simple web tool to scan Docker Hub images for vulnerabilities. So I built one. It’s powered by the popular open-source tool Trivy.

    Hey HN, I'm Brandon, a solo dev, and I built KubeForge - a visual editor for Kubernetes deployments that helps you build and validate YAML configs. Origin Story: Over the past couple weeks, I got fed up manually writing Kubernetes YAMLs, especially when working with nested structures like containers, env, and volumeMounts. Even small typos or misaligned fields added lost time to broken deploys. So I started hacking together a tool to visualize the structure of Kubernetes objects based on the OpenAPI schema. That prototype quickly turned into a full manifest builder. What KubeForge does: -…

    I got tired of libvirt XML and Vagrant's Ruby/reload dance for single-host VM stacks, so I built a compose-style runtime directly on QEMU/KVM. What's there: GPU passthrough as a first-class primitive (VFIO, OVMF, per-instance EFI vars), healthchecks that gate depends_on over SSH, socket-multicast L2 between VMs with no root and no bridge config, cloud-init wired through the YAML, Dockerfile support for provisioning. What it's not: Kubernetes. No clustering, no live migration, no control plane. Single host. Prototype, but I'm running it on real hardware. Curious what breaks for…

    What if Dependabot and Ansible had a child? Well for me that could be Updatecli. Updatecli is a project that I started to help maintain the infrastructure of the Jenkins project. I needed something flexible enough to update YAML with whatever information needed. Because let’s say it, everybody loves YAML. YAML is everywhere. Run it from everywhere… Updatecli is a command-line tool written in Golang and available for Windows, Linux, MacOSx, amd64, arm64, thank you Goreleaser All of that to say that it runs from wherever CI or laptop we need. As of today, Updatecli opened over 3000 Pull…

    Hey HN. My name's Matteo and I'm currently a SWE @ Twilio. 1 day at stand-up the question came up if there was an open source solution to something like https://www.runscope.com. I found it super interesting that there was no artillery.io-like YAML/DSL solution out there. So I built one. Why i think this is cool: 1. Companies today run a ton of microservices for event-driven systems. Asserting on the ingress/egress out of a system might not be covered fully by HTTP. I've setup a plugin interface so that I can implement assertions on stuff like file buckets, DBs, queues,…

    Hi, this is a Python framework I have created to make my life a little easier when creating custom linting rules. Key features: - Quick to use (~20 LOC to create a functioning linter/checker) - Works with different file formats (as in the description) - Supports multiple ignore/noqa directives (per-line ignores, range ignores, whole file, rules choice during runs) - Single check can span all elements of the file or even all files - Works directly with Python's AST - Tutorials and API reference to make users life easier All in all seems to be quite functional for my private (yet)…

    Hey Hacker News, We're the maintainers of docker/model-runner and wanted to share some major updates we're excited about. Link: https://github.com/docker/model-runner We are rebooting the community: https://www.docker.com/blog/rebooting-model-runner-community... At its core, model-runner is a simple, backend-agnostic tool for downloading and running local large language models. Think of it as a consistent interface to interact with different model backends. One of our main backends is llama.cpp, and we make it a point to contribute any…
