Show HN: Shhhbb, an SSH BBS
Hello all :) I made this BBS for fun and thought you all would
enjoy it. It's not perfect, but it's been a fun exercise! see it:
https://asciinema.org/a/Emg6SWrXMV6cehfQxrw1GRu75 try
it: ssh -p 2223 shhhbb.com host it:
https://github.com/donuts-are-good/shhhbb/releases/latest
why? Every year I challenge myself in some new way, this year it
is to push one project per week. You might recognize my static site
generator [0] or my releaser for go [1] from previous posts as one
of these weekly projects. If you want to join me in doing this,
it's been a blast and I highly recommend it! Maybe we can chat on
the bbs about it :) [0] - bearclaw tiny static generator -
https://github.com/donuts-are-good/bearclaw [1] - release.sh
release builder for go - https://github.com/donuts-are-
good/bearclaw need: I'd love a few co-conspirators, or even some
new friends for the bbs software or the bbs itself. A lofty nice-
to-have goal is meeting a few other similarly motivated people to
conspire with on a weekly basis. If that's you, drop me a line!
goals: I have about half of an admin interface endpoint pushed up,
which I'd like to finish. I realized mid-commit that I'd lacked
some other material in a previous commit, and in pushing it up, I
ended up pushing half the admin feature. Stay tuned for that. I'd
also like to implement a feature where I surrender the socket to a
new process so I can upgrade the binary without dropping all of the
connected users. I'm not sure on the feasibility of this, but all
the words fit together, so it'll be tried.
