A just another Cron alternative but with much more capabilities

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

I have created a Cron alternative that runs DAGs (Directed acyclic graph) defined in a simple YAML format. Why not Airflow? Airflow and other similar tools are powerful and valuable, but in most cases, they require writing code to manage workflows. Our ETL pipeline is already hundreds of thousands of lines of complex code in Perl and shell scripts. Adding another layer of Python on top of this would make it difficult to maintain. Instead, we needed a more lightweight solution. So we developed Dagu, which requires no coding, and is easy-to-use and self-contained, making it ideal for smaller projects with fewer people.

  Parabola.io – Automate your work with visual programming2018 · parabola.io · ▲291

  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…

  Eno – A lightning fast, user-friendly YAML/TOML alternative2018 · ▲102

  eno [1] - A modern plaintext language w/ libraries [2] for JavaScript, Python, Ruby & soon more! We migrated a big relational research database to a file-based solution - requirements were: - Super fast and easy editability for users - Highest performance for parsing/validating >10K documents on every user change. Our trials with YAML/TOML showed us that we wanted something both faster [3][4] and easier [4], something tailored for file-based content management ... and after months of research & development it's now publicly available (under MIT license) for everyone! Last but…

  Panda Patrol: Open-Source Data Pipeline Monitoring in < 5 Lines of Code2023 · panda-patrol.vercel.app · ▲9

  I’ve found that I don’t have any context about the data in my pipelines only know if the pipeline is successful or not. So I built panda-patrol which allows you to monitor each node in your DAG, use AI to generate data tests for your data, store data profiles, and more. All with this comes with dashboards and alerts. You can easily drop it into your Python-based data pipeline (i.e. Airflow, Dagster, Prefect, etc.) and just run your pipelines are you normally would — but with monitoring and more context. Hope its valuable to some people

  Pipes puzzle (a.k.a. Net) on a hexagonal grid▲537

  Hello, HN - I wanted to share this puzzle game I made during my vacation. I'm rather fond of the pipes puzzle where your goal is to restore a scrambled network of connections by rotating tiles. It's usually played on a grid of squares and this all started when I decided to make a programmatic solver for that kind of puzzle. Then I realized that with some minor changes the solver could generate new puzzle instances. I thought about what kind of puzzle to make and someone suggested a hexagonal grid. Adapting the generator wasn't too hard but then I had to create a way to play this variant. So…
