🥳 New Kitten release

Just released a new version of Kitten that now includes JSDB 7.0.0 with its improved JSTable.PERSIST event.

kitten.small-web.org

Note that this is a breaking change. If you’re listening for the old 'persist' event, please update your code.

For more information, please see the changelog: codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/br…

Enjoy!

🥳 JavaScript Database (JSDB)¹ version 7.0.0 released

- *Breaking change* JSTable.PERSIST event now uses a parameter object with properties for `type`, `keypath`, `value`, `change`, and `table`. This should make listening for events on your databases much nicer to author. e.g., a snippet from Catalyst² I’m working on:

```js
const settingsTable = db.settings['__table__']
const JSTable = settingsTable.constructor

settingsTable.addListener(JSTable.PERSIST, ({ keypath, value }) => {
switch (keypath) {
case 'servers.serverPoolSize':
console.info('New server pool size requested', value)
this.updateServerPool()
break
// etc.
}
})
```

This new version of JSDB is not in the latest Kitten³ yet as it is a breaking change and I want to make sure I update my sites/apps first if needed. I should have it integrated tomorrow.

To see the simple use case for JSDB in Kitten (the default untyped database that’s easy to get started with and perfect for quick experiments, little sites, etc.), see

jsdb

A zero-dependency, transparent, in-memory, streaming write-on-update JavaScript database for the Small Web that persists to a JavaScript transaction log.

🥳 New module release: Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI Client

codeberg.org/small-tech/hetzne…

This is an OpenAPI client for Node.js generated from the official Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI specification using Massimo.

Recently, while reviewing the code for Catalyst¹, I realised that the Hetzner library I was using was deprecated. The only other client library listed on Awesome Hetzner Cloud for JavaScript was updated seven years ago². So I did a bit of research and discovered that Hetzner has an official OpenAPI specification (useful little things that you can generate documentation as well as working client code from). I also discovered Massimo³, a lightweight and easy to use OpenAPI client generator.

So, anyway, a few minutes later, I had a working Node.js client generated but I thought I’d take a little more time to make it into a module in case anyone else wanted to use it.

In the process, I also created a simple w

🥳 New module release: Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI Client

codeberg.org/small-tech/hetzne…

This is an OpenAPI client for Node.js generated from the official Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI specification using Massimo.

So, anyway, a few minutes later, I had a working Node.js client generated but I thought I’d take a little more time to make it into a module in case anyone else wanted to use it.

In the process, I also created a simple web app example with Kitten⁴ where you can enter your Hetzner API key in a web interface, have it persisted to the default Kitten database⁴ and then carry out a simple call to list your servers. It’s 99 lines of code, including comments, in a single file. (Because Kitten loves you.)

The example uses the new/advanced class and event-based way of working with Kitten so you might find it interesting for that reason too (I haven’t had the chance to document this workflow properly yet). It also showcases Kitten’s Streaming HTML⁵ workflow, as well as its built-in support for semantic default styles and its first-class Markdown support.

You can see the source code for the Kitten example here:
codeberg.org/small-tech/hetzne…

The cool thing is that because the client is generated from the official Hetzner OpenAPI specification, it’s one command to update it should the specification change and you can be sure it matches exactly what’s in the API documentation.

Enjoy!

💕

Hah… just noticed something interesting that looks like it’s going to be another advantage to Web Numbers¹… look at these Kitten² screenshots and tell me if you can spot something unexpected.

Hint: it’s what’s missing.

There are no 404 errors for common hack attempts trying to exploit WordPress vulnerabilities, etc. In fact, it’s entirely quiet. Because those folks watch DNS :)

Hey, guess what?

I just saw the first Small Web site (the Kitten Chat example¹ from Kitten²) running at a Web Number³:

91.98.66.193/

👉 Update: I’m shutting it down in a few moments so it might not be there when you try it :)

Come say hi (I don’t know how long I’ll keep it on for, will update this when I turn it off.)

🥳

PS. This is only in the ip-address-support branch of Kitten right now and should be considered experimental. Will likely make it into main today.

I just looked at the first commit for Kitten (then called NodeKit) from *four years ago* and, boy, has it come a long way since then :)

Four years ago: codeberg.org/kitten/app/commit…

Today: kitten.small-web.org/tutorials…

And, of course, it actually goes back six years, back to Site.js, back to when Site.js was just called https-server (and then, later, Indie Web Server): codeberg.org/site.js/app/commi…

Here’s me talking about why I’m building what I’m building from back then (“Ethical Technology or Feudalism?”), back when I was calling the Small Web the Indienet (and we were Ind.ie, before we were Small Technology Foundation):

🥳 Multiple major releases today

• @small-tech/auto-encrypt v5.0.0 (codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e…)
• @small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost v10.0.0 (codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e…)
• @small-tech/https v6.0.0 (codeberg.org/small-tech/https/…)

These releases bring short-lived certificates, IP Address (IPv4 and IPv6) support, and ACME Renewal Information (ARI) support to Auto Encrypt and @small-tech/https, implement a consistent asynchronous API across all three packages, and include loads of little fixes and code quality improvements.

This brings us very close to getting Web Numbers¹ support implemented natively in Kitten².

Yay, first shot of Auto Encrypt¹ running a HTTPS web server at a Web Number (IP address).

Next step: find out why some of the tests are failing on the Linux box, fix, and implement Web Numbers support in Kitten² and Catalyst³.
