Hey all,
I just fixed ruleset-viewer.gaelan.me, which appears to have gotten
broken by some reorganization of the ruleset repo. It looks like it might
be intermittently running into some GitHub API bug (possibly because
you're not supposed to download as much as I am with a single
request)—I'll monitor that and look into alternate solutions (like using
a git clone instead of their API). Anyway, for the time being, it works.
Nice.
In case you have time to develop this further, I’d love to have the ability
to view old versions of rules and diffs between versions.
Admittedly, that’s a big ask. Ideally there would be history going back
further than the current Git repo, but getting that requires parsing
multiple data sources, which are sometimes fragmentary and even
contradictory. I speak from experience: in the past, I worked on two
different tools for this purpose, but I never really completed either of
them. Maybe I should actually finish one of them, rather than hoping
someone will do the job for me… :) But I’m suggesting it here because I’m
it fits well with the idea of a ruleset viewer application.
