Projects

Most of my personal projects is open source and available on my Github and Sourcehut.

asciidoctor-go

The asciidoctor-go is the Go module to parse the AsciiDoc markup and convert it into HTML5.

awwan

awwan is configuration management software, infrastructure as file and directory layout. In other words, awwan is command-line interface to execute multiple lines of command in the local or remote server using SSH.

Do you have a collection of shell scripts to manage one more similar server? Do you ever want to execute only part of your shell script in remote server? Are you get tired with learning others syntax and tools for provisioning your own server, while you need is a handful knowledge of shell script?

If yes, awwan is the right tools for you.

beku (deprecated in favor of Go module)

Beku is command line program to manage packages in user’s environment (GOPATH or vendor directory). Beku provide syntax like pacman. This program exists long before before godep or Go module exist and stable.

ciigo

ciigo is a program to write static web server with embedded files using asciidoc markup language. This site and golang-id.org is written with ciigo as framework.

golang-id.org

This website is my second contribution to Go community. Its goal is not only to provide help, through translation, for Indonesian to learn more about Go but also to provide an ecosystem for Indonesian Go community, for example, vlog and blog in Indonesian language, and sharing open source works written in Go. The website is freshly launched, they are still more works to be done, though.

Vos is designed to process a large input file, a file where their size is larger than the size of memory, and can be tuned to adapt with machine environment. Vos can do sorting, formatting, filtering, and join, by reading input file and its configuration script. Its written in C.
