<p class="MsoNormal">Hey,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A couple of weeks ago we had a Python-oriented Hackathon at Alcatel-Lucent CloudBand.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We divided into groups and each group had to think of an original / innovative / creative idea to be completed in 24 hours.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My group decided to create an online YAQL evaluator. Although we did not win first place, we got really good feedback and decided to publish it [1].<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some features:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">* Provide a YAML and a YAQL and view the evaluation result.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">* A catalog of common OpenStack API responses.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">* YAQL auto complete (very basic for now)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">* Currently using yaql-0.2.7 - we will upgrade it to yaql-1.0 once Mistral and Murano will upgrade as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All the source code of the project is available on GitHub [2].<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope it will come as useful for you as it is for us.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards.<o:p></o:p></p>
