    other_video_transcoding

    Other tools to transcode videos.

    Other tools to transcode videos.

    [!NOTE] This project is still being maintained but development is not very active. Why? Because I’m focusing my energy on the redesigned and rewritten version of transcode-video.rb from my Video Transcoding project. And I would recommend using that tool instead of other-transcode.rb because it’s much less complex while still leveraging the modern era of transcoding technology.

    request_store

    Per-request global storage for Rack.

    Ever needed to use a global variable in Rails? Ugh, that’s the worst. If you need global state, you’ve probably reached for Thread.current. Like this:

    def self.foo
  Thread.current[:foo] ||= 0
end

def self.foo=(value)
  Thread.current[:foo] = value
end

    Ugh! I hate it. But you gotta do what you gotta do…

    asks

    Async requests-like httplib for python.

    asks is an async requests-like HTTP lib, for use in conjunction with the wonderful curio and trio async libs.

    asks aims to have a mostly familiar API, using simple functions/methods like get() for getting and post() for posting. At the heart of asks is a session class which makes interacting with the web in a sustained and fluid way fast, efficient, and simple. Check out the examples!

    loadtoast

    Pretty material design toasts with feedback animations

    The default toasts are ugly and don’t really provide much more than a short message. This small library provides a better toast which will give the user feedback by morphing into a checkmark or cross (success and fail). The lifetime of the toast is completely controlled by you.
