PCB Holder, flashing door sensors

A while back i printed a PCB holder, perfect for accessing contacts on a print, without the need for soldering.

Flashed a doorsensor with Tasmota.

esptool.py --port /dev/ttyUSB0 write_flash -fs 1MB -fm dout 0x0 tasmota.bin

Keep GND and VCC connected, to keep device awake. Else it’s going into sleep mode.

Pull GPio0 to GND @ boottime, to get into flash mode.

3v3 + GND to keep device alive for configuring.

Layer effect Art proof of concept

I took a picture, converted it to grayscale.

Then used Inkscape trace bitmap, brightness cutoff.
With some other options to get multiple gray layers.

I printed these on transparant sheets, using a laser printer.

Made 7-8 layers with a light behind it, it produces a really cool effect.

Extracting/converting old chats from Signal/ICQ/google

ICQ

For ICQ i only could find one that worked for me.
Search for the below file on the internet

IcqHR 1.8f (http://soft.softoogle.com/ap/icqhr-get-4581.shtml)

This will convert XXXXXmsg.dat to a html file.

SIGNAL

I’ve got signal on my linux workstation, so my encryption key lives in
~/.config/Signal/config.json

Install sqlcipher from (https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher)

And use below script (change paths/keys accordingly)

#!/bin/bash
#set -x
# Get your key from
#cat ~/.config/Signal/config.json
SIGNAL_KEY=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

/Projects/sqlcipher/sqlcipher -list -noheader /home/${USER}/.config/Signal/sql/db.sqlite "PRAGMA key = \"x'"${SIGNAL_KEY}"'\";select json from messages;" > /tmp/clear_text_msgs;
cd /tmp 
tail -n +2 clear_text_msgs > without_ok
sed '$!s/$/,/' without_ok > with_commas
sed '1 s/^/[\n/' with_commas > with_leading_bracket
echo "]" >> with_leading_bracket
rm without_ok
rm with_commas
mv with_leading_bracket valid.json
cp valid.json /home/%{USER}/signal.$(date +%Y%m%d)
cd -

Google Chat/Talk/Hangouts

Just search for google takeout!

After that convert Hangouts.json to text using
https://github.com/baldybeardedguy/hangouts-json-parser/blob/master/Hangouts_json.py

Gluster testing with docker

GlusterFS (Gluster File System) is an open source Distributed File System that can scale out in building-block fashion to store multiple petabytes of data.

Below is a test environment which creates 5 docker instances, which represent 5 gluster servers.
This was for test repairing our work gluster.

First install gluster and pull a image: docker pull gluster/gluster-centos

gethosts

for f in 1 2 3 4 5;
do 
echo "$(docker exec -it gluster_${f} ip a s | grep 172 | awk '{ print $2 }' | cut -f1 -d/) gluster_${f}"
done

create_dockers

for f in 1 2 3 4 5; do
docker run --name gluster_${f} --privileged=true -d gluster/gluster-centos /usr/sbin/init
done

create_bricks

for f in 1 2 3 4 5; do
docker exec -it gluster_${f} mkdir -p /bricks/brick01
done

destroy_dockers

for f in 1 2 3 4 5; do
docker stop gluster_${f}
docker rm gluster_${f}
done

diskcreator

for f in $(seq 1 5); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/disk${f} count=1 bs=100M
losetup /dev/loop${f} /root/disk${f}
docker run --name gluster_${f} --privileged=true --device=/dev/loop${f} -d  gluster/gluster-centos /usr/sbin/init
done

How to use

./create

./gethosts voor info

docker exec -it gluster_1 /bin/bash

# GEEN HOSTSNAMES INGEVULD!

gluster peer probe 172.17.0.5

Geen persistent storage aangemaakt evt kunnen we ook in de docker zelf testen

docker exec -it gluster_1 mkdir -p /bricks/brick01
docker exec -it gluster_2 mkdir -p /bricks/brick01
docker exec -it gluster_3 mkdir -p /bricks/brick01
docker exec -it gluster_4 mkdir -p /bricks/brick01

gluster volume create testvolume 172.17.0.2:/bricks/brick01 172.17.0.3:/bricks/brick01 172.17.0.4:/bricks/brick01 172.17.0.5:/bricks/brick01 force

gluster volume start testvolume
