Mo Bitar :ferris:<p>Huh, my (old-ish) post about <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Podman" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Podman</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Quadlet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Quadlet</span></a> apparently landed on the front page of Hacker News two days ago 🤯</p><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43456934" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4</span><span class="invisible">3456934</span></a></p><p>I noticed it after seeing an unexpected spike in <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OxiTraffic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxiTraffic</span></a>:<br /><a href="https://oxitraffic.mo8it.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">oxitraffic.mo8it.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
Mo Bitar :ferris:<p>Released a new version of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OxiTraffic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxiTraffic</span></a> to use the new version of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/SQLx" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SQLx</span></a> that fixes the following database security vulnerability:</p><p>⚠️ RUSTSEC-2024-0363<br /><a href="https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0363.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC</span><span class="invisible">-2024-0363.html</span></a></p><p>Also replaced Askama with <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Rinja" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Rinja</span></a> for the templates. The migration was trivial 😃</p>
Mo Bitar :ferris:<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@billy" class="u-url mention">@<span>billy</span></a></span> Since <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OxiTraffic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxiTraffic</span></a> is written in Rust and is optimized, it only uses 4MB of RAM (11MiB with shared memory) and almost no CPU time.</p><p>About 6MB is used by the dedicated PostgreSQL database. But you can of course share the database if you want to save resources.</p><p>You can see the stats that Podman reports about the containers.</p><p>In comparison, one backend I wrote in Python with Flask uses about 550MB and keeps the CPU busy…</p>
Mo Bitar :ferris:<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@billy" class="u-url mention">@<span>billy</span></a></span> This is a good idea and definitely something an app developer would like to know about. But this is out of scope for OxiTraffic.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OxiTraffic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxiTraffic</span></a>&#39;s main goals is being very simple and only tracking visits and their durations. It is easy to trust and the JS script is tiny.</p><p>It is also focused on normal websites like blogs instead of apps.</p><p>I would recommend taking a look at Motomo or Plausible for event tracking.</p>
