Clojurians Log v2

This reminds me of Simon Willison’s stuff on https://simonwillison.net/2021/Mar/5/git-scraping/. They end up pushing a commit from the action, so I don’t think it ever stops. (https://github.com/simonw/ca-fires-history/commits/main/)

I also found a commit bot which makes a nice shape in your activity overview, those green boxes

like ascii art

something like this, but it wasn't this specific one: https://github.com/gelstudios/gitfiti

Purely vapourware but the other day I discovered you can run GitHub actions on a regular interval and was thinking you could generate GH hosted static sites using nbb in an action that updates e.g. every hour or every day. For sites that need fresh content but no backend.

@chris358 I do that here: https://github.com/xadecimal/subscription-game-ratings but I just use plain Clojure and babashka. Oh I also use scittle to make the webpage interactive.

This is the resulting GitHub pages hosted static site: https://xadecimal.com/subscription-game-ratings/ and it'll automatically regenerate each week using GitHub cron actions.

That's really cool!

Only downside is on the free tier, they disable actions if you didn't commit for 60 days. So every 60 days I have to manually re-enable them.

Ah ok I didn't know that.

even when you use cron actions?

apparently
