Remember what I said last time about yearly blog posts? Well, here’s the annual smattering of updates!
Progressing Past The Need For sed
Link to heading
I finally got around to upgrading hugo and the modules for this site, and as part of it I very much wanted to get off my gross sed command I was using to set deployment configuration as part of the site’s pipeline.
hugo does support using environment variables to configure sites instead of using a config file, so I was very, very much hoping that I could just…do that.
Alas, after some futzing it turns out that since that deployment targets are slices, and not maps (thanks TOML!) in the config, it was not actually possible.
Somewhere, the inventor of the twelve-factor application paradigm is rolling in their grave.
Then, of course, I remembered that envsubst was a thing, so…I am just doing that. Yeah. It’s truly just a matter of time before I create my deployment tool instead of using hugo deploy.
I Have No Idea Where 2024 (Or 2025) Went Link to heading
For obvious reasons.
I have been up to a lot in the past year plus in terms of work and life, and I will eventually maybe write about it! We’ll see!
I Live In London Now Link to heading
Yes, that London. I very much miss Portland and I don’t think I will ever get used to beans on toast.
My Public Keys Are Now Available Link to heading
And you can find them here.
One day I will get around to adding projects on here too! Maybe next year!
