Re:I don't want to host services (but I do) on Thursday August 10, 2023 @01:31AM (#37072331)
I have created Easypanel [1] to make it easier for developers to self-host applications. However, non-developer people started to use it for deploying open-source apps. Our "templates" [2] list is now at 200+ apps. I would say 50% use it to power their "homelab" and 50% are developers who use it for their apps.

That's my main challenge. You need to be an expert in a language/framework to be able to develop a good Dockerfile. Hopefully, I can get more contributors to join my efforts.

I will draft something and get back to you for feedback.

Btw, I'm building easypanel.io and this is one of my attempts to simplify building docker images. I currently support Cloud Native Buildpacks, but it's quite a black box and people have a hard time using them.

Re:Show HN: Dockerfile Generator on Friday May 13, 2022 @06:39AM (#31365626)
Oh, that's really nice! What if we can standardize this process in some way?

We could have sh scripts for different phases: install-prod-deps.sh, install-dev-deps.sh, run-tests.sh, build.sh, etc.

Also, we could have a configuration schema where people define the base images, copy glob patterns, etc.

While it's not hard to write a Dockerfile, I think it's hard to write a good one.Every language has its own quirks, and every framework has a special way of building things.I was looking for a collection of well-written and well-maintained Dockerfiles, but I couldn't find one.Thus, I thought of creating one!I realized it's not enough to have a simple Dockerfile. Sometimes you need other files...

What is your website?

I've developed http://whos.it. The source code has a really nice architecture - it supports more TLDs than other services like it - it supports web scraping for TLDs that don't have a standard whois server - parsing data is also implemented. I wanted to convert it into a API to sell subscriptions, but I already busy with other projects.

Yep, this is what I was looking for :) Unfortunately I need 7 users and $29 is too much for the 2 extra users I need.

I need something to manage website passwords: for example domain registrar name.com. And also auto-login for long and complex passwords.

Ask HN: Login credential management for teams?

Hello HN,I'm looking for an easy and preferably free way to manage passwords and credentials in my company. Recently there was a post on HN about a service like for this, but I can't remember the name of the website. (it used browser add-ons to enable auto-login for various services, it stored the passwords in the cloud).Does anyone remember the name of that product? If not, do you know a good...

Ask HN: How to monetize this service?

http://whos.it/techcrunch.comI've been working on this side-project for three months.
