Personally my go-to for this would be the ipv6 experimental Yggdrasil-network. https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/

PWC, which sits southeast of D.C. and encircles the independent cities of Manassas and Manassas Park, offers an enviable balance of high income and not-too-high living costs.

This is some dumb ai bot trash…

Thanks for sharing. I recall hearing about this before. After reading this thread I’ve been trying to vend some of my selfhosted apps over yggdrasil. The documentation is difficult to find. A good tutorial would be really useful. Here are my two biggest stumbling blocks headaches:

1. ipv6 headache: I had to update my server host binding from 0.0.0.0 to :: (from ipv4 to ipv6). Apparently ipv4 still works but now ipv6 also works. This was the biggest blocker for me gaining access to my apps over yggdrasil using ipv6.
2. yggdrasil.conf headache: ipv6 syntax issues (apparently I need to learn me some ipv6 stuff) You need to put ipv6 ip addresses in brackets. This is an excerpt from my Listen attribute in my yggdrasil.conf file.

  # Listen addresses for incoming connections. You will need to add
  # listeners in order to accept incoming peerings from non-local nodes.
  # Multicast peer discovery will work regardless of any listeners set
  # here. Each listener should be specified in URI format as above, e.g.
  # tls://0.0.0.0:0 or tls://[::]:0 to listen on all interfaces.
Listen: [
          tls://[::]:8000
          tls://[::]:8080
]

I also downloaded an yggdrasil vpn app for Android and was able to access both apps with Android after adding a peer connection in the settings. Later, I added my Android public key to the AllowedPublicKeys to lock down my apps to be only accessible to my client.

Thanks @wgs for the tip! 🏆

SDF is a great community. Glad you’re here. You mentioned a warm feeling which reminds me of the book The Friendly Orange Glow which seems like something you would really enjoy reading. I first learned about the book from jwh here on the public access unix side of SDF. Such a great book!

Just deleted my Reddit.

There is so much Lemmy to go around. Cross posting this explorer for finding communities.

I’m not even a dev

Said every developer

You’re thinking of DataTables. The lemmy-ui source code shows the css class as table. It looks to me like the basic bootstrap table.

Curious what library you used for the download.

Perfect use case. pipx is awesome for Python! Glad you found a great easy solution.

Is it over engineering or error prone?

Nope. pipx is like a big guard rail to keep you from doing error prone things with system Python.

In these examples we’ll assume your venv is at /home/TrueBlue/project/venv

Is there another way…?

• shebang: Set your #! to point at your Python venv runtime
  #!/home/TrueBlue/project/venv python3
  Now you can just run your Python file and it’ll use the correct Python runtime.
• poetry can be useful for running personal projects using poetry run.
• In linux you can use an alias to create to call your venv Python runtime with your package.

e.g. I want to use a new command named sdf to call my app.

alias sdf="/home/TrueBlue/project/venv/bin/python3 my_app.py"

Thanks for your comment. You are absolutely correct I was using bad credentials. 😳

Thoughtful. I can relate to a lot of what you’ve written here. What are your thoughts on the rich getting richer? I really worry about wealth inequality.

I was thinking about using something like this to supplement an Information Desk at an in-person conference. In case the desk had to be left unstaffed. I’m not sure how well the target population would respond to the technology though.

I am scheduled to present at Python Frederick in August. It is a Practical Business Python styled talk showing the utility of automating complex reporting with Jinja2 and docx templates. This annual report is a real world example using Jinja2.
