#serversideswift — Public Fediverse posts

Just a reminder, if you're building a swift server and not deploying on macOS make sure you are checking that it builds on Linux and you're not using macOS only libraries #buildInPublic #swiftlang #serversideswift

I'll see about open sourcing this whole thing once it's launched

This is a fun project to really push @swiftlang and #ServerSideSwift

We're almost there. That's the 1.0 alpha of valkey-swift released. Valkey-swift is the swift client for the key/value datastore Valkey.

TIL: Vapor's `maximumActiveConnections` is per Event Loop, not per Worker! 🤯

Thought I had 16 Redis connections. Actually had 128 potential (2 dynos × 8 cores × 8/pool)

Finally fixed those longstanding rare 500 errors in TranslateKit! 🙏 🤞

My talk from #ServerSideSwift is live!!

And I’m announcing a new website I’m still working on called LearnSwift .space to provide more content for the Swift community on using Swift outside of Apple platforms

One of the topics I will present at the #serversideswift conference in London next week will be hardware!

Q: What, hardware at a software conference?
A: Yes, because it is controlled by 100% Swift tools…

#London #serversideswift

Hey folks, can anyone please suggest decent hotel around Cromwell Road / South Kensington with good WiFi that will not bankrupt me?

I've been playing with NIO and a tiny server project I've been working on. With Swift 6+ things are starting to take shape, and it's a fantastic option for tiny APIs if one is already in the ecosystem.

For me, there is but one blocker to adopting it, and that's compile times. I just can't take several minutes every time I need to test a change. Kudos to folks working on it. I'd love to be able to have it as an option some day.

The recording, slides, and sample project of my #fosdem talk on Distributed Tracing in server-side Swift are already online. I had a great time at FOSDEM and speaking for the first time was a bit intimidating but also lots of fun.

Here's an example of integrating Hummingbird with OpenTelemetry. The integration was the easy part, thanks to all the hard work from @slashmo. The example includes a docker-compose file that includes an otel-collector, Prometheus for metrics, Jaeger for traces and Grafana for viewing the results. That was the hard bit.

Let's migrate some server components that will allow me to scale some components horizontally 🤞

Happy to announce that #SwiftWebPush is now feature complete, and fully tested and documented. Unless I'm missing anything egregious, I'll likely tag it as 1.0.0 in its current form in a few weeks to give folks time to try it out!

For those that don't know, this is a library that gives you everything you need to send WebPush messages from a swift-based server, allowing notifications to progressing web apps!

It's 2024 and IPv6 has been out for (checking) nearly 3 decades.

Meanwhile, GitHub's and GitLab's container registries don't work in an IPv6-only environment.

Introducing Swift-WebPush, a new server-side swift library for sending Web Push messages to your web apps and PWAs!

Release day today 🎉 Both authentication framework and compression middleware for Hummingbird have 2.0 releases https://github.com/hummingbird-project/hummingbird-auth/releases/tag/2.0.0

I wrote something about outputting streamed HTTP server responses in structured concurrency. https://opticalaberration.com/2024/10/writing-responses.html

If you’re interested in Toucan, here’s related to talk that demos the tool, “Generating static websites using Swift on the server” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuTpnddLhpU presented at the recent ServerSide.swift conference in London #swiftlang #serversideswift

My new Video series is well on its way.
Developing a tiny server application to create a reproducible and benchmarkable inplementation of a BFF in #swift.
The series covers everything from start to finish, but it is not yet completely published.

I want to run it against #quarkus and #springboot in the end to show everyone that Swift is here to stay😎

I created a starter project template to help me quickly prototype new server implementation ideas using Swift, Vapor, and Fluent. It uses code generation to quickly add new entities, provides a flexible query interface for clients by default, and uses Swift Testing for unit test coverage. Having just wrapped up a great week at WWDC24, this was also a great time for me to explore what's new in Xcode 16 and Swift 6. Check it out! #SwiftLang #ServerSideSwift #Vapor #Fluent
