Backing data for

rustaceans.org

Rustaceans.org is no longer; sorry. This repo will continue to exist in case you really need to find some backing data. Feel free to send PRs to remove or update your entry.

rustaceans.org is a website for finding information about members of the Rust community. This repository contains details of Rustaceans and provides the data for rustaceans.org. To see the source itself for rustaceans.org, see https://github.com/rust-unofficial/rustaceans-src.

To add or edit your data, you must fork this repo and send a pull request. Your PR should only add/modify a single file named <your github username>.json in the data directory.

data/template.json is a template JSON file you can fill in with your details. Make sure you don't delete the original file or your PR will be rejected. All fields are optional (but your GitHub username will always be shown on rustaceans.org).

Recommended active accounts to follow

Hi.

Do you consider adding 'Recommended active accounts to follow' like this.

It's nice to have this 'recommended'/'editor choice' list for new comers that don't even know anyone in rust community. But the downside is : what is the parameters for account to be considered 'recommended'.

Thanks in advance :)

PR #759 Closed but I'm not appearing on site

Am I doing it wrong? @nrc

Split "email" field in the JSON files

Currently the email addresses can be easily harvested from the JSON files on the GitHub page.
Instead of

"email": "[email protected]",

you could split the addresses like

"email_user": "foo",
"email_domain": "bar.com",

which would require more effort from the harvester.

/findwork won't load when not on the `www.` subdomain

Going to https://rustaceans.org/findwork/ instead of https://www.rustaceans.org/findwork/ gives me:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://www.rustaceans.org/findwork/data/. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ does not match ‘http://rustaceans.org’).

Rust foundation

This such a cool idea, but shouldn't it be hosted under the rust foundation?

TEST

ignore me

test issue, ignore me

I don't exist?

despite Aaronepower.json existing in the repo, I do not show up in rustaceans, either through search or by direct URL

I wasn’t appearing on rustaceans.org

Five minutes ago, http://rustaceans.org/chris-morgan wasn’t functioning and my name didn’t come up in any searches.

Then I submitted #143, trivial tweaks to my own entry. Now I exist again on rustaceans.org.

I file this bug because something caused me to disappear from the site and there may be other people’s entries not appearing; I have not searched to find out.

Mention official discord and Zulip, and remove IRC links

Most of IRC has moved to either Discord or Zulip, but it still gets most of the front page.

Update start page

Mailing list should be removed user forum should be added, I think.

Hey Nick please don't abandon this project, approve our PRs please !

A lot of PRs not merged.

Allow json filename to be lowercase of the GitHub username

In #433 the user's GitHub username is "GiovanniSM20" and they are adding data/giovannism20.json. GitHub usernames are case insensitive so perhaps this should be allowed.

non-ASCII name does not display properly

@nick29581: http://www.rustaceans.org/search/adrientetar does not display my name properly.

How to add my fan art for Ferris

I'm sorry to ask this here but as the title says.
love the communtiy 💙

Request: Add `"pronouns"`

Matrix handle?

Would be nice if matrix handle could be specified!

Image is loaded insecurely

Firefox warns that the connection to the site is insecure because of images. I believe this is caused by the Rust logo image, which is being loaded from http://www.rust-lang.org/logos/rust-logo-256x256-blk.png (note the protocol). This might be fixed by changing http to https in the image src.

It's not a big deal, but it would be nice if it were shown as secure :)

Thank you for all your great work in the Rust community!

Move user data to a subdir

Otherwise the front page of the repo is going to get loooong

search could/should be loosened

Based on observations/reverse engineering, it looks like the search field on rustaceans.org attempts find records with a (case-folded) text match for every word in the search.

It also does not seem to attempt to include the Notes record fields in its search.

For example, searching for Felix Klock currently yields zero results. However, searching for either Felix or Klock yields my record. (And if you look at my record, you can see I have put "Felix Klock" into its Notes field to try to work around this.)

While it would be good to prioritize the results returned by the current search algorithm, it would be good to also include the results of a looser search, especially when the current search algorithm yields zero results. As an example of a looser search algorithm, we could look for records with any of the requested words, and take the union of the resulting sets of record.

Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have.

That old story is now a new issue.

Time will tell how long this issue remains open.
Meanwhile it tells how rustaceans.org trives.

expired SSL certificate on rustaceans.org

The SSL certificate seems to have expired on https://rustaceans.org/ - I landed on this page from rustacean.net and chanced across this.

Profile merged but no URL created!

My profile update is recently merged but I don't exist in the site yet and neither any URL is created to the profile.
Any comments on that? @nrc
