aoc

AOC

This houses my Advent of Code https://adventofcode.com/ attempts, in go.

Install

git clone github.com/simonski/aoc.git
cd aoc
make setup
make

This will build aoc which you can then type ./aoc on and play with.

Run

Type ./aoc

A calendar will be printed with the stars. Each day can be run using aoc run <year> <day>. Every year I break this, so for 2023 I think I will refactor the lot to the Puzzle interface I dreamed up.

Webserver time

The whole thing is wrapped as a Rube Goldberg toy webserver with webassembly and what-not. Run the server and see some visualisations for the problems I liked. Note that I use Caddy for the tls.

I use a complicated arrangement of javascript talking back to the server for a d3.js visualisation. Good luck with that part next year :). There's a bunch of dead and unused code in there that I'll tidy up.

cd $CODE/aoc
./aoc server

Extend

Let's say you work on a new day, for example 1st December 2023. I use the script start.sh which token-switches some template code:

./start.sh
YEAR: 2022
DAY: 1

You can then run it as an application (edit not true: run via tests until I integrate.)

make
aoc run 2022 01

Eventually I'll be finished and can merge back to main, at which point if I addded a visualisation or blogged it at all, an image can be built and redeployed to https://aoc.simonski.com. I do this by running make docker publish.

Deploy

Build and push the AOC image to ghcr.io, which is then picked up by my server via a watchtowerr.

make docker publish
