deploy.sh for tildagon

This script is to help deploy micropython scripts to tildagon devices. It creates the directory structure for installing your app, and copies the files in. It resets the device before and after to make sure the OS is ready to receive and then is ready for you to activate your script.

Initially based on the advice on the tildagon documentation for running apps this script was enhanced by an LLM to make adjustments like;

# ha-cli.py - a tool to run Home Assistant actions from your command line

Requires [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) to run the script.

Start with `./ha-cli.py auth` and then you can use the command to read and write with your Home Assistant environmnet.

If you use an LLM which understands "Skills", then the SKILLS.md document may be of use.

pullImage Functions

A while back I wrote a blog post about using Credential Providers to automate getting secrets for pulling images for Kubernetes.

Today I had cause to go back to look at that when my cluster was failing to pull images (because they didn't exist, foolishly) and I decided I needed a way to automatically check whether I could actually pull the images. Unlike with the docker credential helpers, you can't just "pull" an image, you need to tell crictl what credentials to use (as this is usually handled by kubelet), so I wrote the first script - ecr_pullImage.function.sh. After a short while I realised it would be more useful to be able to pull from several image sources, and asked Claude to enhance the script to figure out what

PHPIPAM Bulk Add Subnets.py

This is a simple script to help build up a load of subnets in quick order!

Add your subnets to the list starting at line 76 called "make_subnets", run pip3 install -r requirements.txt and then python3 phpipam_bulk_add_subnets.py

Your result should be like this:

    then

Docker Minecraft Server

This is an Ansible Playbook to monitor a git repo for players to add (or remove) and then restart the relevant docker containers using docker-compose. I use this to manage the players on a minecraft server I run.

In this repo, you'll find the actual ansible playbook (playbook.yml), the crontab-able run_playbook.sh (which silences unchanged plays) and the template I'm using (templates=docker-compose.yml). There is also an example vars file (host_vars=localhost=vars.yml) to show the basics of what this file would look like. Note that directory structures in gists are not permitted, so I've replaced / with = in each filename.
