Playing around with plan9’s webfs, have a prototype for reading/writing to the lemmy api as if it were a series of files.
The program creates the files dynamically and it can then be mounted to wherever, in the case of the example here I just mounted it to the /n directory.
Currently I only have one api endpoint but this is good enough for a proof of concept.
Pretty cool! Are you using plan9 in an emulator or plan9port?
Thanks! Neither, I’m running 9front baremetal on a raspberry pi
Which raspberry pi are you using? Would a pico work?
I was using a 1B (from 2012) and it worked great (no h.264 video though), the newest version of 9front has working WiFi and i2c so I’m planning on switching to a 4B
no they don’t have an image for the pico, it doesn’t have enough memory to run, but you kinda don’t have to, you could just write a little 9p server and mount the pico over WiFi. But theoretically all of the main raspberry pi boards work
Thanks I want to try playing with this!
Omg this is really cool. Can you share the code?
Yeah! here you go. Its still very wip, but feel free to check it out!
