💻 Gusher (Go-Usher - The Go-based Networking Usher)

❗This Project is a Work in Progress❗

Gusher is a tool written in Go to provide the functionality needed to manage, configure, and update distributed systems.

🙏Goals

To provide an all-in-one system for managing, configuring, and update remote systems.

😕 What this includes

• Sending Files via a Secure Protocol
• Reading/Implementing Configuration Files (Windows, Linux and MacOS)
• Starting VMs and Containers
• Reporting on Remote System Status

❓Why Not Just Use [insert config manager name here]

Because I have tried them and they don't play well with the tools that I like to use or provide all of the functionality that I would like.

Also, I am doing a lot of this to learn about how different mechanisms work. The end product is a plus that I plan on providing to the open-source community.

📋 Current Development Progress/Roadmap

• Implement Basic Chunk Sizing Logic
• File Hashing
• Read Files and Write Chunks
• Chunk Hashing
• Re-integrate Chunks into Complete File
• Chunk and File Hash Verification
• Implement a Secure Protocol (not SSH)
• Transfer Files Over Secure Protocol
• Read and Implement Configurations
• Spin up VMs/Containers
• Automatically Adjust Firewall Rules for VMs/Containers
• System Status (File Transfer Progress, Up/Down Time, Running VMs/Containers, etc.) Reports
• API
• GUI
• Code Optimization (to be done between each item in the roadmap). This will probably not be checked off for a while, if ever.
