 I've got an Ender 3 Pro 3D printer, a Raspberry Pi 4, and a Pixel Slate. I can't interface directly with the printer over USB from the Slate (plus having to be physically connected to things is like so lame) so I installed [Octoprint on the Raspberry Pi](https://github.com/guysoft/OctoPi) and connected that to the printer's USB interface. This gave me a pretty web interface for controlling the printer - but it's only accessible over the local network.  I also installed [The Spaghetti Detective](https://www.thespaghettidetective.com/) to allow secure remote control of the printer, with the added bonus of using AI magic and a cheap camera to detect and abort failing prints.
 
-That's a pretty sweet setup, but I still needed a way to convert STL 3D models into GCODE files which the printer can actually understand. And what if I want to create my own designs?

Feel free to put it in a subfolder if you want to keep things organized - I stash all my AppImages in `~/Applications/`.
 
 To be able to actually execute the AppImage you'll need to adjust the permissions with 'chmod +x':
 ```shell

+chmod +x ~/Applications/Ultimaker_Cura-4.7.1.AppImage # [tl! .cmd]

 You can then start up the app by calling the file directly:
 ```shell

+~/Applications/Ultimaker_Cura-4.7.1.AppImage & # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 AppImages don't automatically appear in the Chrome OS launcher so you'll need to create its `.desktop` file. You can do this manually if you want, but I found it a lot easier to leverage `menulibre`:
 ```shell

 Just plug in the relevant details (you can grab the appropriate icon [here](https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/blob/master/icons/cura-128.png)), hit the filing cabinet Save icon, and you should then be able to search for Cura from the Chrome OS launcher.

-When I [recently set up my Tanzu Community Edition environment](/tanzu-community-edition-k8s-homelab/), I did so from a Linux VM since I knew that my Chromebook Linux environment wouldn't support the `kind` bootstrap cluster used for the deployment. But now I'd like to be able to connect to the cluster directly using the `tanzu` and `kubectl` CLI tools. How do I get the appropriate cluster configuration over to my Chromebook?
-
-The Tanzu CLI actually makes that pretty easy. I just run these commands on my Linux VM to export the `kubeconfig` of my management (`tce-mgmt`) and workload (`tce-work`) clusters to a pair of files:
-```shell
-tanzu management-cluster kubeconfig get --admin --export-file tce-mgmt-kubeconfig.yaml
-tanzu cluster kubeconfig get tce-work --admin --export-file tce-work-kubeconfig.yaml
-```
-
-I could then use `scp` to pull the files from the VM into my local Linux environment. I then needed to [install `kubectl`](/tanzu-community-edition-k8s-homelab/#kubectl-binary) and the [`tanzu` CLI](/tanzu-community-edition-k8s-homelab/#tanzu-cli) (making sure to also [enable shell auto-completion](/enable-tanzu-cli-auto-completion-bash-zsh/) along the way!), and I could import the configurations locally:
-
-```shell
-❯ tanzu login --kubeconfig tce-mgmt-kubeconfig.yaml --context tce-mgmt-admin@tce-mgmt --name tce-mgmt
-✔  successfully logged in to management cluster using the kubeconfig tce-mgmt
-
-❯ tanzu login --kubeconfig tce-work-kubeconfig.yaml --context tce-work-admin@tce-work --name tce-work
-✔  successfully logged in to management cluster using the kubeconfig tce-work

The obvious application of this is adding descriptive notes so I can remember what purpose a VM serves, but I will also be using [Custom Attributes](https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.vcenterhost.doc/GUID-73606C4C-763C-4E27-A1DA-032E4C46219D.html) to store the server's Point of Contact information and a record of which ticketing system request resulted in the server's creation.

 Okay, so I've got the information I want to pass on to vCenter.

 The first thing this workflow needs to do is parse `inputProperties (Properties)` to get the name of the VM, and it will then use that information to query vCenter and grab the corresponding VM object. So I'll add a scriptable task item to the workflow canvas and call it `Get VM Object`. It will take `inputProperties (Properties)` as its sole input, and output a new variable called `vm` of type `VC:VirtualMachine`.

Well I've spent much of my time since then working on a script which would help to populate my phpIPAM instance with a list of networks to monitor.
 
 ### Planning and Exporting
-The first step in making this work was to figure out which networks I wanted to import. We've got hundreds of different networks in use across our production vSphere environments. I focused only on those which are portgroups on distributed virtual switches since those configurations are pretty standardized (being vCenter constructs instead of configured on individual hosts). These dvPortGroups bear a naming standard which conveys all sorts of useful information, and it's easy and safe to rename any dvPortGroups which _don't_ fit the standard (unlike renaming portgroups on a standard virtual switch).

These dvPortGroups bear a naming standard which conveys all sorts of useful information, and it's easy and safe to rename any dvPortGroups which _don't_ fit the standard (unlike renaming portgroups on a standard virtual switch).
 
 The standard naming convention is `[Site/Description] [Network Address]{/[Mask]}`. So the networks (across two virtual datacenters and two dvSwitches) look something like this:
 ![Production dvPortGroups approximated in my testing lab environment](dvportgroups.png)
 
-Some networks have masks in the name, some don't; and some use an underscore (`_`) rather than a slash (`/`) to separate the network from the mask . Most networks correctly include the network address with a `0` in the last octet, but some use an `x` instead. And the VLANs associated with the networks have a varying number of digits. Consistency can be difficult so these are all things that I had to keep in mind as I worked on a solution which would make a true best effort at importing all of these.

 As long as the dvPortGroup names stick to this format I can parse the name to come up with a description as well as the IP space of the network. The dvPortGroup also carries information about the associated VLAN, which is useful information to have. And I can easily export this information with a simple PowerCLI query:

 #### WireGuard Server Setup
 Once the **Compute Engine > Instances** [page](https://console.cloud.google.com/compute/instances) indicates that the instance is ready, I can make a note of the listed public IP and then log in via SSH:

+```shell
-ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_25519_wireguard {PUBLIC_IP}
+ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_25519_wireguard {PUBLIC_IP} # [tl! .cmd]

 ##### Preparation
 And, as always, I'll first make sure the OS is fully updated before doing anything else:
-```sh
+```shell
-sudo apt update
+sudo apt update # [tl! .cmd:1]
 sudo apt upgrade
 ```
 
 Then I'll install `ufw` to easily manage the host firewall, `qrencode` to make it easier to generate configs for mobile clients, `openresolv` to avoid [this issue](https://superuser.com/questions/1500691/usr-bin-wg-quick-line-31-resolvconf-command-not-found-wireguard-debian/1500896), and `wireguard` to, um, guard the wires:
-```sh
+```shell
-sudo apt install ufw qrencode openresolv wireguard

-# Then turn it on:
+# Then turn it on: # [tl! .nocopy]
-sudo ufw enable
+sudo ufw enable # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 The last preparatory step is to enable packet forwarding in the kernel so that the instance will be able to route traffic between the remote clients and my home network (once I get to that point). I can configure that on-the-fly with:
-```sh
+```shell
-sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
+sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 To make it permanent, I'll edit `/etc/sysctl.conf` and uncomment the same line:
-```sh
+```shell
-$ sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf
+sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf # [tl! .cmd]
+```
+```ini
 # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4
 net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
 ```
 
 ##### WireGuard Interface Config
 I'll switch to the root user, move into the `/etc/wireguard` directory, and issue `umask 077` so that the files I'm about to create will have a very limited permission set (to be accessible by root, and _only_ root):
-```sh
+```shell
-sudo -i
+sudo -i # [tl! .cmd]
-cd /etc/wireguard
+cd /etc/wireguard # [tl! .cmd_root:1]
 umask 077
 ```
 
 Then I can use the `wg genkey` command to generate the server's private key, save it to a file called `server.key`, pass it through `wg pubkey` to generate the corresponding public key, and save that to `server.pub`:
-```sh
+```shell
-wg genkey | tee server.key | wg pubkey > server.pub
+wg genkey | tee server.key | wg pubkey > server.pub # [tl! .cmd_root]
 ```
 
 As I mentioned earlier, WireGuard will create a virtual network interface using an internal network to pass traffic between the WireGuard peers. By convention, that interface is `wg0` and it draws its configuration from a file in `/etc/wireguard` named `wg0.conf`. I could create a configuration file with a different name and thus wind up with a different interface name as well, but I'll stick with tradition to keep things easy to follow.
 
 The format of the interface configuration file will need to look something like this:
-```
+```ini
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
 [Interface]     # this section defines the local WireGuard interface
 Address =       # CIDR-format IP address of the virtual WireGuard interface
 ListenPort =    # WireGuard listens on this port for incoming traffic (randomized if not specified)
@@ -162,7 +165,8 @@ AllowedIPs =    # which IPs will be routed to this peer
 There will be a single `[Interface]` section in each peer's configuration file, but they may include multiple `[Peer]` sections. For my config, I'll use the `10.200.200.0/24` network for WireGuard, and let this server be `10.200.200.1`, the VyOS router in my home lab `10.200.200.2`, and I'll assign IPs to the other peers from there. I found a note that Google Cloud uses an MTU size of `1460` bytes so that's what I'll set on this end. I'm going to configure WireGuard to use the VyOS router as the DNS server, and I'll specify my internal `lab.bowdre.net` search domain. Finally, I'll leverage the `PostUp` and `PostDown` directives to enable and disable NAT so that the server will be able to forward traffic between networks for me.
 
 So here's the start of my GCP WireGuard server's `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf`:

I'm going to use the `wg-quick` wrapper instead of calling `wg` directly since it simplifies a bit of the configuration, but first I'll need to enable the `wg-quick@{INTERFACE}` service so that it will run automatically at startup:

 ### Configure VyoS Router as WireGuard Peer
 Comparatively, configuring WireGuard on VyOS is a bit more direct. I'll start by entering configuration mode and generating and binding a key pair for this interface:
-```sh
+```shell
-configure
+configure # [tl! .cmd_root:1]
 run generate pki wireguard key-pair install interface wg0
 ```
 
 And then I'll configure the rest of the options needed for the interface:
-```sh
+```shell
-set interfaces wireguard wg0 address '10.200.200.2/24'
+set interfaces wireguard wg0 address '10.200.200.2/24' # [tl! .cmd_root:start]
 set interfaces wireguard wg0 description 'VPN to GCP'
 set interfaces wireguard wg0 peer wireguard-gcp address '{GCP_PUBLIC_IP}'

 set interfaces wireguard wg0 peer wireguard-gcp persistent-keepalive '25'
 set interfaces wireguard wg0 peer wireguard-gcp port '51820'
-set interfaces wireguard wg0 peer wireguard-gcp public-key '{GCP_PUBLIC_KEY}'
+set interfaces wireguard wg0 peer wireguard-gcp public-key '{GCP_PUBLIC_KEY}' # [tl! .cmd_root:end]
 ```
 
 Note that this time I'm allowing all IPs (`0.0.0.0/0`) so that this WireGuard interface will pass traffic intended for any destination (whether it's local, remote, or on the Internet). And I'm specifying a [25-second `persistent-keepalive` interval](https://www.wireguard.com/quickstart/#nat-and-firewall-traversal-persistence) to help ensure that this NAT-ed tunnel stays up even when it's not actively passing traffic - after all, I'll need the GCP-hosted peer to be able to initiate the connection so I can access the home network remotely.
 
 While I'm at it, I'll also add a static route to ensure traffic for the WireGuard tunnel finds the right interface:
-```sh
+```shell
-set protocols static route 10.200.200.0/24 interface wg0
+set protocols static route 10.200.200.0/24 interface wg0 # [tl! .cmd_root]
 ```
 
 And I'll add the new `wg0` interface as a listening address for the VyOS DNS forwarder:
-```sh
+```shell
-set service dns forwarding listen-address '10.200.200.2'
+set service dns forwarding listen-address '10.200.200.2' # [tl! .cmd_root]
 ```
 
 I can use the `compare` command to verify the changes I've made, and then apply and save the updated config:
-```sh
+```shell
-compare
+compare # [tl! .cmd_root:2]
 commit
 save
 ```
 
 I can check the status of WireGuard on VyOS (and view the public key!) like so:
-```sh
+```shell

 See? That part was much easier to set up! But it doesn't look like it's actually passing traffic yet... because while the VyOS peer has been configured with the GCP peer's public key, the GCP peer doesn't know anything about the VyOS peer yet.
 
 So I'll copy `{VYOS_PUBLIC_KEY}` and SSH back to the GCP instance to finish that configuration. Once I'm there, I can edit `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf` as root and add in a new `[Peer]` section at the bottom, like this:
-```

Again, the `AllowedIPs` parameter is used for WireGuard's Cryptokey Routing so that it can keep track of which traffic goes to which peers (and which key to use for encryption).
 
 After saving the file, I can either restart WireGuard by bringing the interface down and back up (`wg-quick down wg0 && wg-quick up wg0`), or I can reload it on the fly with:
-```sh
+```shell
-sudo -i
+sudo -i # [tl! .cmd]
-wg syncconf wg0 <(wg-quick strip wg0)
+wg syncconf wg0 <(wg-quick strip wg0) # [tl! .cmd_root]
 ```
 
 (I can't just use `wg syncconf wg0` directly since `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf` includes the `PostUp`/`PostDown` commands which can only be parsed by the `wg-quick` wrapper, so I'm using `wg-quick strip {INTERFACE}` to grab the contents of the config file, remove the problematic bits, and then pass what's left to the `wg syncconf {INTERFACE}` command to update the current running config.)

 I'll be configuring Vagrant to use [`libvirt`](https://libvirt.org/) to interface with the [Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM)](https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Main_Page) virtualization solution (rather than something like VirtualBox that would bring more overhead) so I'll need to install some packages for that as well:

 ### Preparing the SSH host
 I deployed a Windows Server 2019 Core VM to use as my SSH host, and I joined it to my AD domain as `win02.lab.bowdre.net`. Once that's taken care of, I need to install the RSAT DNS tools so that I can use the `Add-DnsServerResourceRecord` and associated cmdlets. I can do that through PowerShell like so:
 ```powershell
-# Install RSAT DNS tools
+# Install RSAT DNS tools [tl! .nocopy]
-Add-WindowsCapability -online -name Rsat.Dns.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0
+Add-WindowsCapability -online -name Rsat.Dns.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0 # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]
 ```
 
 Instead of using a third-party SSH server, I'll use the OpenSSH Server that's already available in Windows 10 (1809+) and Server 2019:
-```powershell 
+```powershell
-# Install OpenSSH Server
+# Install OpenSSH Server [tl! .nocopy]
-Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Server~~~~0.0.1.0
+Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Server~~~~0.0.1.0 # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]
 ```
 
 I'll also want to set it so that the default shell upon SSH login is PowerShell (rather than the standard Command Prompt) so that I can have easy access to those DNS cmdlets:
-```powershell 
+```powershell
-# Set PowerShell as the default Shell (for access to DNS cmdlets)
+# Set PowerShell as the default Shell (for access to DNS cmdlets) # [tl! .nocopy]

+  -Value "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" `
+  -PropertyType String -Force
 ```
 
 I'll be using my `lab\vra` service account for managing DNS. I've already given it the appropriate rights on the DNS server, but I'll also add it to the Administrators group on my SSH host:
 ```powershell
-# Add the service account as a local administrator
+# Add the service account as a local administrator # [tl! .nocopy]
-Add-LocalGroupMember -Group Administrators -Member "lab\vra"
+Add-LocalGroupMember -Group Administrators -Member "lab\vra" # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]
 ```
 
 And I'll modify the OpenSSH configuration so that only members of that Administrators group are permitted to log into the server via SSH:
-```powershell 
+```powershell
-# Restrict SSH access to members in the local Administrators group
+# Restrict SSH access to members in the local Administrators group [tl! .nocopy]
-(Get-Content "C:\ProgramData\ssh\sshd_config") -Replace "# Authentication:", "$&`nAllowGroups Administrators" | Set-Content "C:\ProgramData\ssh\sshd_config"
+(Get-Content "C:\ProgramData\ssh\sshd_config") -Replace "# Authentication:", `
+  "$&`nAllowGroups Administrators" | Set-Content "C:\ProgramData\ssh\sshd_config" # [tl! .cmd_pwsh:-1]
 ```
 
 Finally, I'll start the `sshd` service and set it to start up automatically:
-```powershell 
+```powershell
-# Start service and set it to automatic
+# Start service and set it to automatic [tl! .nocopy]
-Set-Service -Name sshd -StartupType Automatic -Status Running
+Set-Service -Name sshd -StartupType Automatic -Status Running # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]

 The very first task is to write the required firmware image (download [here](https://github.com/jaredmcneill/quartz64_uefi/releases)) to a micro SD card. I used a 64GB card that I had lying around but you could easily get by with a *much* smaller one; the firmware image is tiny, and the card can't be used for storing anything else. Since I'm doing this on a Chromebook, I'll be using the [Chromebook Recovery Utility (CRU)](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromebook-recovery-utili/pocpnlppkickgojjlmhdmidojbmbodfm) for writing the images to external storage as described [in another post](/burn-an-iso-to-usb-with-the-chromebook-recovery-utility/).
 
 After downloading [`QUARTZ64_EFI.img.gz`](https://github.com/jaredmcneill/quartz64_uefi/releases/download/2022-07-20/QUARTZ64_EFI.img.gz), I need to get it into a format recognized by CRU and, in this case, that means extracting the gzipped archive and then compressing the `.img` file into a standard `.zip`:

 I'll also need to prepare the ESXi installation media (download [here](https://customerconnect.vmware.com/downloads/get-download?downloadGroup=ESXI-ARM)). For that, I'll be using a 256GB USB drive. Due to the limited storage options on the Quartz64, I'll be installing ESXi onto the same drive I use to boot the installer so, in this case, the more storage the better. By default, ESXi 7.0 will consume up to 128GB for the new `ESX-OSData` partition; whatever is leftover will be made available as a VMFS datastore. That could be problematic given the unavailable/flaky USB support of the Quartz64. (While you *can* install ESXi onto a smaller drive, down to about ~20GB, the lack of additional storage on this hardware makes it pretty important to take advantage of as much space as you can.)
 
 In any case, to make the downloaded `VMware-VMvisor-Installer-7.0-20133114.aarch64.iso` writeable with CRU all I need to do is add `.bin` to the end of the filename:
-```
+```shell

 #### Deploying Photon OS
 VMware provides Photon in a few different formats, as described on the [download page](https://github.com/vmware/photon/wiki/Downloading-Photon-OS). I'm going to use the "OVA with virtual hardware v13 arm64" version so I'll kick off that download of `photon_uefi.ova`. I'm actually going to download that file straight to my `deb01` Linux VM:

 #### Installing Tailscale
 If I *weren't* doing this on hard mode, I could use Tailscale's [install script](https://tailscale.com/download) like I do on every other Linux system. Hard mode is what I do though, and the installer doesn't directly support Photon OS. I'll instead consult the [manual install instructions](https://tailscale.com/download/linux/static) which tell me to download the appropriate binaries from [https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/#static](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/#static). So I'll grab the link for the latest `arm64` build and pull the down to the VM:
 
-```bash
+```shell
-curl https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/tailscale_1.22.2_arm64.tgz --output tailscale_arm64.tgz
+curl https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/tailscale_1.22.2_arm64.tgz --output tailscale_arm64.tgz # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 Then I can unpack it:
-```bash
+```shell
-sudo tdnf install tar
+sudo tdnf install tar # [tl! .cmd:2]
 tar xvf tailscale_arm64.tgz
 cd tailscale_1.22.2_arm64/
 ```
 
 So I've got the `tailscale` and `tailscaled` binaries as well as some sample service configs in the `systemd` directory:
-```bash
+```shell
-john@pho01 [ ~/tailscale_1.22.2_arm64 ]$
+ls # [tl! .cmd]

 -rw-r----- 1 john users 287 Mar 18 02:44 tailscaled.defaults
 -rw-r----- 1 john users 674 Mar 18 02:44 tailscaled.service
 ```
 
 Dealing with the binaries is straight-forward. I'll drop them into `/usr/bin/` and `/usr/sbin/` (respectively) and set the file permissions:
-```bash
+```shell
-sudo install -m 755 tailscale /usr/bin/
+sudo install -m 755 tailscale /usr/bin/ # [tl! .cmd:1]

-```bash
+```shell
-sudo systemctl enable tailscaled.service
+sudo systemctl enable tailscaled.service # [tl! .cmd:1]
 sudo systemctl start tailscaled.service
 ```
 
 And finally log in to Tailscale, including my `tag:home` tag for [ACL purposes](/secure-networking-made-simple-with-tailscale/#acls) and a route advertisement for my home network so that my other Tailscale nodes can use this one to access other devices as well:

 ### Conclusion
 I actually received the Quartz64 waay back on March 2nd, and it's taken me until this week to get all the pieces in place and working the way I wanted.
-{{< tweet user="johndotbowdre" id="1499194756148125701" >}}
 
 As is so often the case, a lot of time and effort would have been saved if I had RTFM'd[^rtfm] before diving in to the deep end. I definitely hadn't anticipated all the limitations that would come with the Quartz64 SBC before ordering mine. Now that it's done, though, I'm pretty pleased with the setup, and I feel like I learned quite a bit along the way. I keep reminding myself that this is still a very new hardware platform. I'm excited to see how things improve with future development efforts.

 ### Find IP-ish strings
 This will get you all occurrences of things which look vaguely like IPv4 addresses:
 ```shell
-grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT
+grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 (It's not a perfect IP address regex since it would match things like `987.654.321.555` but it's close enough for my needs.)
 
 ### Filter out `localhost`
 The log likely include a LOT of traffic to/from `127.0.0.1` so let's toss out `localhost` by piping through `grep -v "127.0.0.1"` (`-v` will do an inverse match - only return results which *don't* match the given expression):
 ```shell
-grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1"
+grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 ### Count up the duplicates
 Now we need to know how many times each IP shows up in the log. We can do that by passing the output through `uniq -c` (`uniq` will filter for unique entries, and the `-c` flag will return a count of how many times each result appears):
 ```shell
-grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c
+grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 ### Sort the results
 We can use `sort` to sort the results. `-n` tells it sort based on numeric rather than character values, and `-r` reverses the list so that the larger numbers appear at the top:
 ```shell
-grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r
+grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 ### Top 5
 And, finally, let's use `head -n 5` to only get the first five results:
 ```shell
-grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r | head -n 5
+grep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' ACCESS_LOG.TXT | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r | head -n 5  # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 ### Bonus round!
 You know how old log files get rotated and compressed into files like `logname.1.gz`? I *very* recently learned that there are versions of the standard Linux text manipulation tools which can work directly on compressed log files, without having to first extract the files. I'd been doing things the hard way for years - no longer, now that I know about `zcat`, `zdiff`, `zgrep`, and `zless`!
 
 So let's use a `for` loop to iterate through 20 of those compressed logs, and use `date -r [filename]` to get the timestamp for each log as we go:
-```bash
+```shell
-for i in {1..20}; do date -r ACCESS_LOG.$i.gz; zgrep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' \ACCESS_LOG.log.$i.gz | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r | head -n 5; done
+for i in {1..20}; do date -r ACCESS_LOG.$i.gz; zgrep -o -E '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' \ # [tl! .cmd]
+  ACCESS_LOG.log.$i.gz | grep -v "127.0.0.1" | uniq -c | sort -n -r | head -n 5; done
 ```
 Nice!

I had run into a similar problem with previous versions of SSC, but the [quick-and-dirty workaround to disable certificate verification](https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vRealize-Discussions/SaltStack-Config-Integration-show-Blank-Page/td-p/2863973) doesn't seem to work anymore.

 If your vRA endpoint is using a self-signed or otherwise untrusted certificate, pass the HTTPie option `--verify=no` to ignore certificate errors:
-```

 Running that will return a bunch of interesting headers but I'm mainly interested in the response body:
 ```json

 There's the auth token[^token] that I'll need for subsequent requests. I'll store that in a variable so that it's easier to wield:
 ```shell

 So now if I want to find out which images have been configured in vRA, I can ask:
 ```shell
-https GET vra.lab.bowdre.net/iaas/api/images "Authorization: Bearer $token"
+https GET vra.lab.bowdre.net/iaas/api/images "Authorization: Bearer $token" # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 {{% notice note "Request Items" %}}
 Remember from above that HTTPie will automatically insert key/value pairs separated by a colon into the request header.
 {{% /notice %}}
 
 And I'll get back some headers followed by an JSON object detailing the defined image mappings broken up by region:
-```json {hl_lines=[11,14,37,40,53,56]}

 I'll start with creating a `git` user. This account will be set as the owner of the data volume used by the Gitea container, but will also (perhaps more importantly) facilitate [SSH passthrough](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/install-with-docker/#ssh-container-passthrough) into the container for secure git operations.
 
 Here's where I create the account and also generate what will become the SSH key used by the git server:

+sudo useradd -s /bin/bash -m git # [tl! .cmd:1]
 sudo -u git ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -C "Gitea Host Key"

-```bash
+```shell

 That `:` at the end of the line will cause problems down the road - specifically when the deployment process creates the `dex` app which handles the actual LDAPS authentication piece. Cumulative hours of [troubleshooting](#troubleshooting-notes) (and learning!) eventually revealed to me that something along the way had choked on that trailing colon and inserted this into the `dex` configuration:

 With the load balancer in place, I can follow the TCE instruction to modify the Pinniped and Dex services to switch from the `NodePort` type to the `LoadBalancer` type so they can be easily accessed from outside of the cluster.

 The `-w 0` / `--wrap=0` argument tells `base64` to *not* wrap the encoded lines after a certain number of characters.

Avoid having to clean up the output afterwards by being more specific with the request up front!

 #### Clearing pinniped sessions
 I couldn't figure out an elegant way to log out so that I could try authenticating as a different user, but I did discover that information about authenticated sessions get stored in `~/.config/tanzu/pinniped/sessions.yaml`. The sessions expired after a while but until that happens I'm able to keep on interacting with `kubectl` - and not given an option to re-authenticate even if I wanted to.
 
 So in lieu of a handy logout option, I was able to remove the cached sessions by deleting the file:
-```bash
+```shell
-rm ~/.config/tanzu/pinniped/sessions.yaml
+rm ~/.config/tanzu/pinniped/sessions.yaml # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 
 That let me use `kubectl get nodes` to trigger the authentication prompt again.

 I recently [migrated this site](/virtually-potato-migrated-to-github-pages) from Hashnode to GitHub Pages, and I'm really getting into the flexibility and control that managing the content through Jekyll provides. So, naturally, after finalizing the move I got to work recreating Hashnode's "Series" feature, which lets you group posts together and highlight them as a collection. One of the things I liked about the Series setup was that I could control the order of the collected posts: my posts about [building out the vRA environment in my homelab](/series/vra8) are probably best consumed in chronological order (oldest to newest) since the newer posts build upon the groundwork laid by the older ones, while posts about my [other one-off projects](/series/projects) could really be enjoyed in any order.
 
-I quickly realized that if I were hosting this pretty much anywhere *other* than GitHub Pages I could simply leverage the [`jekyll-archives`](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-archives) plugin to manage this for me - but, alas, that's not one of the [plugins supported by the platform](https://pages.github.com/versions/). I needed to come up with my own solution, and being still quite new to Jekyll (and this whole website design thing in general) it took me a bit of fumbling to get it right.

 ### Reviewing the theme-provided option
 The Jekyll theme I'm using ([Minimal Mistakes](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes)) comes with [built-in support](https://mmistakes.github.io/mm-github-pages-starter/categories/) for a [category archive page](/series), which (like the [tags page](/tags)) displays all the categorized posts on a single page. Links at the top will let you jump to an appropriate anchor to start viewing the selected category, but it's not really an elegant way to display a single category.

 ### Defining a new layout
 I create a new file called `_layouts/series.html` which will define how these new series pages get rendered. It starts out just like the default `categories.html` one:
 
-```liquid
+```jinja-html
-{% raw %}---
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+---
 layout: archive
 ---
 
-{{ content }}{% endraw %}
+{{ content }}
 ```
 
 That `{{ content }}` block will let me define text to appear above the list of articles - very handy. Much of the original `categories.html` code has to do with iterating through the list of categories. I won't need that, though, so I'll jump straight to setting what layout the entries on this page will use:
-```liquid
+```jinja-html
 {% assign entries_layout = page.entries_layout | default: 'list' %}
 ```
 
 I'll be including two custom variables in the [Front Matter](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/) for my category pages: `tag` to specify what category to filter on, and `sort_order` which will be set to `reverse` if I want the older posts up top. I'll be able to access these in the layout as `page.tag` and `page.sort_order`, respectively. So I'll go ahead and grab all the posts which are categorized with `page.tag`, and then decide whether the posts will get sorted normally or in reverse:
-```liquid
+```jinja-html
-{% raw %}{% assign posts = site.categories[page.tag] %}
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+{% assign posts = site.categories[page.tag] %}
 {% if page.sort_order == 'reverse' %}
     {% assign posts = posts | reverse %}
-{% endif %}{% endraw %}
+{% endif %}
 ```
 
 And then I'll loop through each post (in either normal or reverse order) and insert them into the rendered page:
-```liquid
+```jinja-html
-{% raw %}<div class="entries-{{ entries_layout }}">
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+<div class="entries-{{ entries_layout }}">
     {% for post in posts %}
         {% include archive-single.html type=entries_layout %}

 I started with the [`_layouts/single.html`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_layouts/single.html) file which is the layout I'm using for individual posts. This bit near the end gave me the clue I needed:
-```liquid
+```jinja-html

         {% include page__taxonomy.html %}
         {% include page__date.html %}
-      </footer>{% endraw %}
+      </footer>
 ```
 
 It looks like [`page__taxonomy.html`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_includes/page__taxonomy.html) is being used to display the tags and categories, so I then went to that file in the `_include` directory:
-```liquid
+```jinja-html

 Okay, it looks like [`_include/category-list.html`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_includes/category-list.html) is what I actually want. Here's that file:

 ```
 
 I'm using the `liquid` archive approach since I can't use the `jekyll-archives` plugin, so I can see that it's setting the `path_type` to `"#"`. And near the bottom of the file, I can see that it's assembling the category link by slugifying the `category_word`, sticking the `path_type` in front of it, and then putting the `site.category_archive.path` (which I edited earlier in `_config.yml`) in front of that. So that's why my category links look like `/series/#category`. I can just edit the top of this file to statically set `path_type = nil` and that should clear this up in a jiffy:
-```liquid

 So it *claims* to have successfully updated the VM tools, added `lab\testy` to the local `Administrators` group, extended the `C:` volume to fill the 65GB virtual disk, added firewall rules to permit remote access, and created a scheduled task to apply updates. I can open a console session to the VM to spot-check the results.

 Anyway, I wanted to start using Page Bundles but didn't want to have to manually go through all my posts to move the images and update the paths so I spent a few minutes cobbling together a quick script to help me out. It's pretty similar to the one I created to help [migrate images from Hashnode to my Jekyll site](/script-to-update-image-embed-links-in-markdown-files/) last time around - and, like that script, it's not pretty, polished, or flexible in the least, but it did the trick for me.

 Next it updates the links for any thumbnail images mentioned in the front matter post metadata. In most of my past posts, I reused an image already embedded in the post as the thumbnail so those files would already be moved by the time the script gets to that point. For the few exceptions, it also needs to move those image files over as well.
 
 Lastly, it changes the `usePageBundles` flag from `false` to `true` so that Hugo knows what we've done.

 #### Sidebar: Tailscale on VyOS
 Getting Tailscale on [my VyOS virtual router](/vmware-home-lab-on-intel-nuc-9/#vyos) was unfortunately a little more involved than [leveraging the built-in WireGuard capability](/cloud-based-wireguard-vpn-remote-homelab-access/#configure-vyos-router-as-wireguard-peer). I found the [vyos-tailscale](https://github.com/DMarby/vyos-tailscale) project to help with building a customized VyOS installation ISO with the `tailscaled` daemon added in. I was then able to copy the ISO over to my VyOS instance and install it as if it were a [standard upgrade](https://docs.vyos.io/en/latest/installation/update.html). I could then bring up the interface, advertise my home networks, and make it available as an exit node with:
-```bash
+```shell
-sudo tailscale up --advertise-exit-node --advertise-routes "192.168.1.0/24,172.16.0.0/16"

 ### Zsh, Oh My Zsh, and powerlevel10k theme
 I've been really getting into this shell setup recently so let's go on and make things comfortable before we move on too much further. Getting `zsh` is straight forward:
 ```shell
-sudo apt install zsh
+sudo apt install zsh # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 Go ahead and launch `zsh` (by typing '`zsh`') and go through the initial setup wizard to configure preferences for things like history, completion, and other settings. I leave history on the defaults, enable the default completion options, switch the command-line editor to `vi`-style, and enable both `autocd` and `appendhistory`. Once you're back at the (new) `penguin%` prompt we can move on to installing the [Oh My Zsh plugin framework](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh).
 
 Just grab the installer script like so:
 ```shell
-wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh
+wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 Review it if you'd like (and you should! *Always* review code before running it!!), and then execute it:
 ```shell
-sh install.sh
+sh install.sh # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 When asked if you'd like to change your default shell to `zsh` now, **say no**. This is because it will prompt for your password, but you probably don't have a password set on your brand-new Linux (Beta) account and that just makes things complicated. We'll clear this up later, but for now just check out that slick new prompt:
 ![Oh my!](8q-WT0AyC.png)
 
 Oh My Zsh is pretty handy because you can easily enable [additional plugins](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins) to make your prompt behave exactly the way you want it to. Let's spruce it up even more with the [powerlevel10k theme](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k)!
 ```shell
-git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k
+git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git \ # [tl! .cmd]
+  ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k
 ```
 Now we just need to edit `~/.zshrc` to point to the new theme:
 ```shell
-sed -i s/^ZSH_THEME=.\*$/ZSH_THEME='"powerlevel10k\/powerlevel10k"'/ ~/.zshrc
+sed -i s/^ZSH_THEME=.\*$/ZSH_THEME='"powerlevel10k\/powerlevel10k"'/ ~/.zshrc # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 We'll need to launch another instance of `zsh` for the theme change to take effect so first lets go ahead and manually set `zsh` as our default shell. We can use `sudo` to get around the whole "don't have a password set" inconvenience:
 ```shell
-sudo chsh -s /bin/zsh [username]
+sudo chsh -s /bin/zsh [username] # [tl! .cmd]
 ```
 Now close out the terminal and open it again, and you should be met by the powerlevel10k configurator which will walk you through getting things set up:
-![pwerlevel10k configurator](K1ScSuWcg.png)
+![powerlevel10k configurator](K1ScSuWcg.png)
 
 This theme is crazy-configurable, but fortunately the configurator wizard does a great job of helping you choose the options that work best for you.
 I pick the Classic prompt style, Unicode character set, Dark prompt color, 24-hour time, Angled separators, Sharp prompt heads, Flat prompt tails, 2-line prompt height, Dotted prompt connection, Right prompt frame, Sparse prompt spacing, Fluent prompt flow, Enabled transient prompt, Verbose instant prompt, and (finally) Yes to apply the changes.

 I recently came across the [Snikket project](https://snikket.org/), which [aims](https://snikket.org/about/goals/) to make decentralized end-to-end encrypted personal messaging simple and accessible for *everyone*, with an emphasis on providing a consistent experience across the network. Snikket does this by maintaining a matched set of server and client[^2] software with feature and design parity, making it incredibly easy to deploy and manage the server, and simplifying user registration with invite links. In contrast to Matrix, Snikket does not operate an open server on which users can self-register but instead requires users to be invited to a hosted instance. The idea is that a server would be used by small groups of family and friends where every user knows (and trusts!) the server operator while also ensuring the complete decentralization of the network[^3].

My parents were actually able to join the chat without any issues, which is a testament to how easy it is from a user perspective too.

 The Snikket team has actually put together a couple of scripts to assist with [backing up](https://github.com/snikket-im/snikket-selfhosted/blob/main/scripts/backup.sh) and [restoring](https://github.com/snikket-im/snikket-selfhosted/blob/main/scripts/restore.sh) an instance.

   -v "/home/john/snikket-backup/":/backup debian:buster-slim \
   tar czf /backup/snikket-"$(date +%F-%H%m)".tar.gz /snikket
 ```
 
 That will drop a compressed backup of the `snikket_data` volume into the specified directory, `/home/john/snikket-backup/`. While I'm at it, I'll also go ahead and copy the `docker-compose.yml` and `snikket.conf` files from `/etc/snikket/`:

+---
+
+I've been futzing around a bit with how code blocks render on this blog. Hugo has a built-in, _really fast_, [syntax highlighter](https://gohugo.io/content-management/syntax-highlighting/) courtesy of [Chroma](https://github.com/alecthomas/chroma). Chroma is basically automatic and it renders very quickly[^fast] during the `hugo` build process, and it's a pretty solid "works everywhere out of the box" option.
+
+That said, the one-size-fits-all approach may not actually fit everyone *well*, and Chroma does leave me wanting a bit more. Chroma sometimes struggles with tokenizing and highlighting certain languages, leaving me with boring monochromatic text blocks. Hugo's implementation supports highlighting individual lines by inserting directives next to the code fence backticks (like `{hl_lines="11-13"}` to highlight lines 11-13), but that can be clumsy if you're not sure which lines need to be highlighted[^eleven], are needing to highlight multiple disjointed lines, or later insert additional lines which throw off the count. And sometimes I'd like to share a full file for context while also collapsing it down to just the bits I'm going to write about. That's not something that can be done with the built-in highlighter (at least not without tacking on a bunch of extra JavaScript and CSS nonsense[^nonsense]).
+
+[^fast]: Did I mention that it's fast?
+[^eleven]: (or how to count to eleven)
+[^nonsense]: Spoiler: I'm going to tack on some JS and CSS nonsense later - we'll get to that.
+
+But then I found a post from Sebastian de Deyne about [Better code highlighting in Hugo with Torchlight](https://sebastiandedeyne.com/better-code-highlighting-in-hugo-with-torchlight).  and I thought that [Torchlight](https://torchlight.dev) sounded pretty promising.
+
+From Torchlight's [docs](https://torchlight.dev/docs),
+
+> *Torchlight is a VS Code-compatible syntax highlighter that requires no JavaScript, supports every language, every VS Code theme, line highlighting, git diffing, and more.*
+>
+> *Unlike traditional syntax highlighting tools, Torchlight is an HTTP API that tokenizes and highlights your code on our backend server instead of in the visitor's browser.*
+>
+> *We find this to be the easiest and most powerful way to achieve accurate and feature rich syntax highlighting.*
+>
+> *Client-side language parsers are limited in their complexity since they have to run in the browser environment. There are a lot of edge cases that those libraries can't catch.*
+>
+> *Torchlight relies on the VS Code parsing engine and TextMate language grammars to achieve the most accurate results possible. We bring the power of the entire VS Code ecosystem to your docs or blog.*
+
+In short: Code blocks in, formatted HTML out, and no JavaScript or extra code to render this slick display in the browser:
+```toml
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+# netlify.toml
+[build]
+  publish = "public"
+
+[build.environment]
+  HUGO_VERSION = "0.111.3" # [tl! --]
+  HUGO_VERSION = "0.116.1" # [tl! ++ reindex(-1)]
+
+[context.production] # [tl! focus:5 highlight:3,1]
+  command = """
+  hugo --minify
+  npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli
+  npx torchlight
+  """
+
+[context.preview] # [tl! collapse:start]
+  command = """
+  hugo --minify --environment preview
+  npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli
+  npx torchlight
+  """
+  [[headers]]
+    for = "/*"
+      [headers.values]
+      X-Robots-Tag = "noindex"
+
+[[redirects]]
+  from = "/*"
+  to = "/404/"
+  status = 404 # [tl! collapse:end]
+```
+
+Pretty nice, right? That block's got:
+- Colorful, accurate syntax highlighting
+- Traditional line highlighting
+- A shnazzy blur/focus to really make the important lines pop
+- In-line diffs to show what's changed
+- An expandable section to reveal additional context on-demand
+
+And marking-up that code block was pretty easy and intuitive. Torchlight is controlled by [annotations](https://torchlight.dev/docs/annotations) inserted as comments appropriate for whatever language you're using (like `# [tl! highlight]` to highlight a single line). In most cases you can just put the annotation right at the end of the line you're trying to flag. You can also [specify ranges](https://torchlight.dev/docs/annotations/ranges) relative to the current line (`[tl! focus:5]` to apply the focus effect to the current line and the next five) or use `:start` and `:end` so you don't have to count at all.
+```toml
+# torchlight! {"torchlightAnnotations": false}
+# netlify.toml
+[build]
+  publish = "public"
+
+[build.environment]
+  # diff: remove this line
+  HUGO_VERSION = "0.111.3" # [tl! --]
+  # diff: add this line, adjust line numbering to compensate
+  HUGO_VERSION = "0.116.1" # [tl! ++ reindex(-1)]
+
+# focus this line and the following 5, highlight the third line down
+[context.production] # [tl! focus:5 highlight:3,1]
+  command = """
+  hugo --minify
+  npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli
+  npx torchlight
+  """
+
+# collapse everything from `:start` to `:end`
+[context.preview] # [tl! collapse:start]
+  command = """
+  hugo --minify --environment preview
+  npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli
+  npx torchlight
+  """
+  [[headers]]
+    for = "/*"
+      [headers.values]
+      X-Robots-Tag = "noindex"
+
+[[redirects]]
+  from = "/*"
+  to = "/404/"
+  status = 404 # [tl! collapse:end]
+```
+
+See what I mean? Being able to put the annotations directly on the line(s) they modify is a lot easier to manage than trying to keep track of multiple line numbers in the header. And I think the effect is pretty cool.
+
+### Basic setup
+So what did it take to get this working on my blog?
+
+I started with registering for a free[^free] account at [torchlight.dev](https://app.torchlight.dev/register?plan=free_month) and generating an API token. I'll need to include that later with calls to the Torchlight API. The token will be stashed as an environment variable in my Netlify configuration, but I'll also stick it in a local `.env` file for use with local builds:
+```shell
+echo "TORCHLIGHT_TOKEN=torch_[...]" > ./.env # [tl! .cmd]
+```
+
+[^free]: Torchlight is free for sites which don't generate revenue, though it does require a link back to `torchlight.dev`. I stuck the attribution link in the footer. More pricing info [here](https://torchlight.dev/#pricing).
+
+#### Installation
+I then used `npm` to install Torchlight in the root of my Hugo repo:
+```shell
+npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli # [tl! .cmd]
+# [tl! .nocopy:1]
+added 94 packages in 5s
+```
+
+That created a few new files and directories that I don't want to sync with the repo, so I added those to my `.gitignore` configuration. I'll also be sure to add that `.env` file so that I don't commit any secrets!
+```
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+# .gitignore
+.hugo_build.lock
+/node_modules/ [tl! ++:2]
+/package-lock.json
+/package.json
+/public/
+/resources/
+/.env [tl! ++]
+```
+
+The [installation instructions](https://torchlight.dev/docs/clients/cli#init-command) say to then initialize Torchlight like so:
+```shell
+npx torchlight init # [tl! .cmd focus]
+# [tl! .nocopy:start]
+node:internal/fs/utils:350
+    throw err;
+    ^

+
+Oh. Hmm.
+
+There's an [open issue](https://github.com/torchlight-api/torchlight-cli/issues/4) which reveals that the stub config file is actually located under the `src/` directory instead of `dist/`. And it turns out the `init` step isn't strictly necessary, it's just a helper to get you a working config to start.
+
+#### Configuration
+Now that I know where the stub config lives, I can simply copy it to my repo root. I'll then get to work modifying it to suit my needs:
+
+```shell
+cp node_modules/@torchlight-api/torchlight-cli/src/stubs/config.js ./torchlight.config.js # [tl! .cmd]
+```
+
+```js
+// torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}

+  // Your token from https://torchlight.dev
+  token: process.env.TORCHLIGHT_TOKEN, // this will come from a netlify build var [tl! highlight focus]
+
+  // The Torchlight client caches highlighted code blocks. Here you

+    // appear, the file will be ignored.
+    excludePatterns: [
+      '/node_modules/',
+      '/vendor/'
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+You can find more details about the configuration options [here](https://torchlight.dev/docs/clients/cli#configuration-file).
+
+#### Stylization
+It's not strictly necessary for the basic functionality, but applying a little bit of extra CSS to match up with the classes leveraged by Torchlight can help to make things look a bit more polished. Fortunately for this _fake-it-til-you-make-it_ dev, Torchlight provides sample CSS that work great for this:
+
+- [Basic CSS](https://torchlight.dev/docs/css) for generally making things look tidy
+- [Focus CSS](https://torchlight.dev/docs/annotations/focusing#css) for that slick blur/focus effect
+- [Collapse CSS](https://torchlight.dev/docs/annotations/collapsing#required-css) for some accordion action
+
+Put those blocks together (along with a few minor tweaks), and here's what I started with in `assets/css/torchlight.css`:
+```css

+
+I'll make sure that this CSS gets dynamically attached to any pages with a code block by adding this to the bottom of my `layouts/partials/head.html`:

+  {{ $syntax := resources.Get "css/torchlight.css" | minify }}

+```
+
+As a bit of housekeeping, I'm also going to remove the built-in highlighter configuration from my `config/_default/markup.toml` file to make sure it doesn't conflict with Torchlight:
+```toml

+```
+
+### Building
+Now that the pieces are in place, it's time to start building!
+
+#### Local
+I like to preview my blog as I work on it so that I know what it will look like before I hit `git push` and let Netlify do its magic. And Hugo has been fantastic for that! But since I'm offloading the syntax highlighting to the Torchlight API, I'll need to manually build the site instead of relying on Hugo's instant preview builds.
+
+There are a couple of steps I'll use for this:
+1. First, I'll `source .env` to load the `TORCHLIGHT_TOKEN` for the API.
+2. Then, I'll use `hugo --minify --environment local -D` to render my site into the `public/` directory.
+3. Next, I'll call `npx torchlight` to parse the HTML files in `public/`, extract the content of any `<pre>`/`<code>` blocks, send it to the Torchlight API to work the magic, and write the formatted code blocks back to the existing HTML files.
+4. Finally, I use `python3 -m http.server --directory public 1313` to serve the `public/` directory so I can view the content at `http://localhost:1313`.
+
+I'm lazy, though, so I'll even put that into a quick `build.sh` script to help me run local builds:
+```shell
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# Quick script to run local builds
+source .env
+hugo --minify --environment local -D
+npx torchlight
+python3 -m http.server --directory public 1313
+```
+
+Now I can just make the script executable and fire it off:
+```shell
+chmod +x build.sh # [tl! focus:3 .cmd:1]
+./build.sh
+Start building sites … # [tl! .nocopy:start]

+
+#### Netlify
+Setting up Netlify to leverage the Torchlight API is kind of similar. I'll start with logging in to the [Netlify dashboard](https://app.netlify.com) and navigating to **Site Configuration > Environment Variables**. There, I'll click on **Add a variable > Add a ingle variable**. I'll give the new variable a key of `TORCHLIGHT_TOKEN` and set its value to the token I obtained earlier.
+
+![](netlify-env-var.png)
+
+Once that's done, I edit the `netlify.toml` file at the root of my site repo to alter the build commands:
+```toml
+# torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+[build]
+  publish = "public"
+
+[build.environment]
+  HUGO_VERSION = "0.111.3"
+
+[context.production] # [tl! focus:6]
+  command = "hugo" # [tl! -- ++:1,5 reindex(-1):1,1]
+  command = """
+  hugo --minify
+  npm i @torchlight-api/torchlight-cli
+  npx torchlight
+  """
+
+```
+
+Now when I `git push` new content, Netlify will use Hugo to build the site, then install and call Torchlight to `++fancy;` the code blocks before the site gets served. Very nice!
+
+### #Goals
+Of course, I. Just. Can't. leave well enough alone, so my work here isn't finished - not by a long shot.
+
+You see, I'm a sucker for handy "copy" buttons attached to code blocks, and that's not something that Torchlight does (it just returns rendered HTML, remember? No fancy JavaScript here). I also wanted to add informative prompt indicators (like `$` and `#`) to code blocks representing command-line inputs (rather than script files). And I'd like to flag text returned by a command so that *only* the commands get copied, effectively ignoring the returned text, diff-removed lines, diff markers, line numbers, and prompt indicators.
+
+I had previously implemented a solution based *heavily* on Justin James' blog post, [Hugo - Dynamically Add Copy Code Snippet Button](https://digitaldrummerj.me/hugo-add-copy-code-snippet-button/). Getting that Chroma-focused solution to work well with Torchlight-formatted code blocks took some work, particularly since I'm inept at web development and can barely spell "CSS" and "JavaScrapped".
+
+But I[^copilot] eventually fumbled through the changes required to meet my #goals, and I'm pretty happy with how it all works.
+
+[^copilot]: With a little help from my Copilot buddy...
+
+#### Custom classes
+Remember Torchlight's in-line annotations that I mentioned earlier? They're pretty capable out of the box, but can also be expanded through the use of [custom classes](https://torchlight.dev/docs/annotations/classes). This makes it easy to selectively apply special handling to selected lines of code, something that's otherwise pretty dang tricky to do with Chroma.
+
+So, for instance, I could add a class `.cmd` for standard user-level command-line inputs:
+```shell
+# torchlight! {"torchlightAnnotations":false}
+sudo make me a sandwich # [tl! .cmd]
+```
+```shell
+sudo make me a sandwich # [tl! .cmd]
+```
+
+Or `.cmd_root` for a root prompt:
+```shell
+# torchlight! {"torchlightAnnotations": false}
+wall "Make your own damn sandwich." # [tl! .cmd_root]
+```
+```shell
+wall "Make your own damn sandwich." # [tl! .cmd_root]
+```
+
+And for deviants:
+```powershell
+# torchlight! {"torchlightAnnotations": false}
+Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "A taco is a sandwich" # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]
+```
+```powershell
+Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "A taco is a sandwich" # [tl! .cmd_pwsh]
+```
+
+I also came up with a cleverly-named `.nocopy` class for the returned lines that shouldn't be copyable:
+```shell
+# torchlight! {"torchlightAnnotations": false}
+copy this # [tl! .cmd]
+but not this # [tl! .nocopy]
+```
+```shell
+copy this # [tl! .cmd]
+but not this # [tl! .nocopy]
+```
+
+So that's how I'll tie my custom classes to individual lines of code[^ranges], but I still need to actually define those classes.
+
+I'll drop those at the bottom of the `assets/css/torchlight.css` file I created earlier:
+
+```css
+// torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}

+
+[^ranges]: Or ranges of lines, using the same syntax as before: `[tl! .nocopy:5]` will make this line and the following five uncopyable.
+
+The `.cmd` classes will simply insert the respective prompt _before_ each flagged line, and the `.nocopy` class will prevent those lines from being selected (and copied). Now for the tricky part...
+
+#### Copy that blocky
+There are two major pieces for the code-copy wizardry: the CSS to style/arrange the copy button and language label, and the JavaScript to make it work.
+
+I put the CSS in `assets/css/code-copy-button.css`:
+
+```css
+// torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+/* adapted from https://digitaldrummerj.me/hugo-add-copy-code-snippet-button/ */
+
+.highlight {
+  position: relative;
+  z-index: 0;
+  padding: 0;
+  margin:40px 0 10px 0;
+  border-radius: 4px;
+}
+
+.copy-code-button {
+  position: absolute;
+  z-index: -1;
+  right: 0px;
+  top: -26px;
+  font-size: 13px;
+  font-weight: 700;
+  line-height: 14px;
+  letter-spacing: 0.5px;
+  width: 65px;
+  color: var(--fg);
+  background-color: var(--bg);
+  border: 1.25px solid var(--off-bg);
+  border-top-left-radius: 4px;
+  border-top-right-radius: 4px;
+  border-bottom-right-radius: 0px;
+  border-bottom-left-radius: 0px;
+  white-space: nowrap;
+  padding: 6px 6px 7px 6px;
+  margin: 0 0 0 1px;
+  cursor: pointer;
+  opacity: 0.6;
+}
+
+.copy-code-button:hover,
+.copy-code-button:focus,
+.copy-code-button:active,
+.copy-code-button:active:hover {
+  color: var(--off-bg);
+  background-color: var(--off-fg);
+  opacity: 0.8;
+}
+
+.copyable-text-area {
+  position: absolute;
+  height: 0;
+  z-index: -1;
+  opacity: .01;
+}
+
+.torchlight [data-lang]:before {
+  position: absolute;
+  z-index: -1;
+  top: -26px;
+  left: 0px;
+  content: attr(data-lang);
+  font-size: 13px;
+  font-weight: 700;
+  color: var(--fg);
+  background-color: var(--bg);
+  border-top-left-radius: 4px;
+  border-top-right-radius: 4px;
+  border-bottom-left-radius: 0;
+  border-bottom-right-radius: 0;
+  padding: 6px 6px 7px 6px;
+  line-height: 14px;
+  opacity: 0.6;
+  position: absolute;
+  letter-spacing: 0.5px;
+  border: 1.25px solid var(--off-bg);
+  margin: 0 0 0 1px;
+}
+```
+
+And, as before, I'll link this from the bottom of my `layouts/partial/head.html` so it will get loaded on the appropriate pages:
+
+```html
+<!-- syntax highlighting -->
+{{ if (findRE "<pre" .Content 1) }}
+  {{ $syntax := resources.Get "css/torchlight.css" | minify }}
+  <link href="{{ $syntax.RelPermalink }}" rel="stylesheet">
+  {{ $copyCss := resources.Get "css/code-copy-button.css" | minify }} <!-- [tl! ++:1 ] -->
+  <link href="{{ $copyCss.RelPermalink }}" rel="stylesheet">
+{{ end }}
+```
+
+#### Code behind the copy
+That sure makes the code blocks and accompanying button / labels look pretty great, but I still need to actually make the button work. For that, I'll need some JavaScript that (again) largely comes from Justin's post.
+
+With all the different classes and things used with Torchlight, it took a lot of (generally misguided) tinkering for me to get the script to copy just the text I wanted (and nothing else). I learned a ton in the process, so I've highlighted the major deviations from Justin's script.
+
+Anyway, here's my `assets/js/code-copy-button.js`:
+```javascript
+// torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
+// adapted from https://digitaldrummerj.me/hugo-add-copy-code-snippet-button/
+
+function createCopyButton(highlightDiv) {
+  const button = document.createElement("button");
+  button.className = "copy-code-button";
+  button.type = "button";
+  button.innerText = "Copy";
+  button.addEventListener("click", () => copyCodeToClipboard(button, highlightDiv));
+  highlightDiv.insertBefore(button, highlightDiv.firstChild);
+  const wrapper = document.createElement("div");
+  wrapper.className = "highlight-wrapper";
+  highlightDiv.parentNode.insertBefore(wrapper, highlightDiv);
+  wrapper.appendChild(highlightDiv);
+}
+
+document.querySelectorAll(".highlight").forEach((highlightDiv) => createCopyButton(highlightDiv)); // [tl! focus:start]
+
+async function copyCodeToClipboard(button, highlightDiv) {
+  // capture all code lines in the selected block which aren't classed `nocopy` or `line-remove`
+  let codeToCopy = highlightDiv.querySelectorAll(":last-child > .torchlight > code > .line:not(.nocopy, .line-remove)");
+  // now remove the first-child of each line if it is of class `line-number`
+  codeToCopy = Array.from(codeToCopy).reduce((accumulator, line) => {
+    if (line.firstChild.className != "line-number") {
+      return accumulator + line.innerText + "\n"; }
+    else {
+      return accumulator + Array.from(line.children).filter(
+        (child) => child.className != "line-number").reduce(
+          (accumulator, child) => accumulator + child.innerText, "") + "\n";
+    }
+  }, ""); // [tl! focus:end]
+  try {
+    var result = await navigator.permissions.query({ name: "clipboard-write" });
+    if (result.state == "granted" || result.state == "prompt") {
+      await navigator.clipboard.writeText(codeToCopy);
+    } else {
+      button.blur();
+      button.innerText = "Error!";
+      setTimeout(function () {
+        button.innerText = "Copy";
+      }, 2000);
+    }
+  } catch (_) {
+    button.blur();
+    button.innerText = "Error!";
+    setTimeout(function () {
+      button.innerText = "Copy";
+    }, 2000);
+  } finally {
+    button.blur();
+    button.innerText = "Copied!";
+    setTimeout(function () {
+      button.innerText = "Copy";
+    }, 2000);
+  }
+}
+
+```
+
+And this script gets called from the bottom of my `layouts/partials/footer.html`:
+```html
+{{ if (findRE "<pre" .Content 1) }}
+  {{ $jsCopy := resources.Get "js/code-copy-button.js" | minify }}
+  <script src="{{ $jsCopy.RelPermalink }}"></script>
+{{ end }}
+```
+
+### Going live!
+
+And at this point, I can just run my `build.sh` script again to rebuild the site locally and verify that it works as well as I think it does.
+
+It looks pretty good to me, so I'll go ahead and push this up to Netlify. If all goes well, this post and the new code block styling will go live at the same time.
+
+See you on the other side!

 There are three things I'll need to do in the Tailscale admin portal before moving on:
 #### Create an ACL tag
 I assign ACL tags to devices in my tailnet based on their location and/or purpose, and I'm then able to use those in a policy to restrict access between certain devices. To that end, I'm going to create a new `tag:golink` tag for this purpose. Creating a new tag in Tailscale is really just going to the [Access Controls page of the admin console](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/acls) and editing the policy to specify a `tagOwner` who is permitted to assign the tag:
-```text {hl_lines=[11]}
+```json
-	"groups":
+  "groups":
-		"group:admins": ["john@example.com"],
+    "group:admins": ["john@example.com"],
-	},
+  },
-	"tagOwners": {
+  "tagOwners": {
-		"tag:home":   ["group:admins"],
+    "tag:home":   ["group:admins"],
-		"tag:cloud":  ["group:admins"],
+    "tag:cloud":  ["group:admins"],
-		"tag:client": ["group:admins"],

-		"tag:dns":    ["group:admins"],

+    "tag:rsync":  ["group:admins"],
-		"tag:funnel": ["group:admins"],
+    "tag:funnel": ["group:admins"],
-		"tag:golink": ["group:admins"],
+    "tag:golink": ["group:admins"], // [tl! highlight]
-	},
+  },
 ```
 
 #### Configure ACL access
 This step is really only necessary since I've altered the default Tailscale ACL and prevent my nodes from communicating with each other unless specifically permitted. I want to make sure that everything on my tailnet can access golink:
 
-```text
+```json
 "acls": [
-		{
+    {
-			// make golink accessible to everything
+      // make golink accessible to everything

 #### Setting the right context

+```shell

 ```
 
 I can now run `kubectl config get-contexts` and see that I have access to contexts on both management and workload clusters:
 
-```bash
+```shell
-❯ kubectl config get-contexts
+kubectl config get-contexts # [tl! .cmd]

 This demo is using a `NodePort` type service to expose the front end, which means it will be accessible on port `30001` on the node it's running on. I can find that IP by:
-```bash
+```shell

 In the same vein as [my script to automagically resize a Linux LVM volume to use up free space on a disk](/automatic-unattended-expansion-of-linux-root-lvm-volume-to-fill-disk), I wanted a way to automatically apply Windows updates for servers deployed by [my vRealize Automation environment](/series/vra8). I'm only really concerned with Windows Server 2019, which includes the [built-in Windows Update Provider PowerShell module](https://4sysops.com/archives/scan-download-and-install-windows-updates-with-powershell/). So this could be as simple as `Install-WUUpdates -Updates (Start-WUScan)` to scan for and install any available updates.

+Unfortunately, I found that this approach can take a long time to run and often exceeded the timeout limits imposed upon my ABX script, causing the PowerShell session to end and terminating the update process. I really needed a way to do this without requiring a persistent session.
 
 After further experimentation, I settled on using PowerShell to create a one-time scheduled task that would run the updates and reboot, if necessary. I also wanted the task to automatically delete itself after running to avoid cluttering up the task scheduler library - and that last item had me quite stumped until I found [this blog post with the solution](https://iamsupergeek.com/self-deleting-scheduled-task-via-powershell/).

+VMware vCenter does wonders for abstracting away the layers of complexity involved in managing a large virtual infrastructure, but when something goes wrong it can be challenging to find exactly where the problem lies. And it can be even harder to proactively address potential issues before they occur.
 
 Fortunately there's a super-handy utility which can making diagnosing vCenter significantly easier, and it comes in the form of the [vSphere Diagnostic Tool Fling](https://flings.vmware.com/vsphere-diagnostic-tool). VDT is a Python script which can be run directly on a vCenter Server appliance (version 6.5 and newer) to quickly check for problems and misconfigurations affecting:

 - Lookup Service
 - Active Directory

-- vCenter NTP

-- vCenter Port

-- Root Account

-- vCenter Services

 - VCHA
 
 For any problems which are identified, VDT will provide simple instructions and/or links to Knowledge Base articles for more detailed instructions on how to proceed with resolving the issues. Sounds pretty useful, right? And yet, somehow, I keep forgetting that VDT is a thing. So here's a friendly reminder to myself of how to obtain and use VDT to fix vSphere woes. Let's get started.

I just used that generator to spawn a new repository in my GitHub account ([`jbowdre.github.io`](https://github.com/jbowdre/jbowdre.github.io)).
