  • Visualizing City of Helsinki procurements with geofi-package

                         

                           

    City of Helsinki public procurements have been available as open data since 2014. High quality data like this is obviously of great interest to many and [several interesting applications and visualizations] have been made available.

                           

    With some additional open data from Finnish Patent and Registration Office and data wrangling, the location of the city supplier companies could be made visible. Geofi-package, just released in CRAN, provides excellent tools for this sort of task, alongside dplyr-package’s lightning-fast join and mutate operations.

  • The Month in WordPress: March 2021

    These words from Josepha Haden Chomphosy on the How WordPress Improves episode of the WP Briefing Podcast point to the factors that differentiate building software in an open-source environment. Our updates this month are closely tied to the philosophy behind those core principles of open source software.

  • Hey, Lubuntu maintainners! Please build LibreOffice with vcl:kde5 instead vcl:qt5!

    I should ask you Lubuntu maintainers: please build LibreOffice with vcl:kde5 instead vcl:qt5. Because LibreOffice's vcl:qt5 backend still buggy and unstable.

  • Happy Backup Day

    During my search for a backup solution I stumbled upon the tool backupninja and really liked the idea. Don’t write your own script that calls DB backup and the filesystem backup, but instead drop a file inside /etc/backup.d/ and it will automatically does it for you and sends an email if there is a problem. Even when this is a very Debian centric project, there is a Fedora/EPEL package for it. But the EPEL Package is only on version 1.1.0, instead of the current 1.2.1, but a mock rebuild of the fedora package for RHEL7 fixed that without any major issues. 1.2.1 is important because now restic is supported. There is still some love needed, because there are now at least two trees that are drifting apart ;-(

  • Top New Games You Can Play With Proton Since Mar. 2021

    Century: Age of Ashes is a Free to Play title that you might want to try out. It reminds me of Panzer Dragoon with a mix of Dragon Strike (old SSI title). Loop Hero has a native client as well as you may remember that Podiki has recently shared his impressions about it. Apparently some folks has issues to run it natively, but turns out it works just as well in Proton.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
