This summer, I had the privilege of interning at Google on the i18n team under the guidance of Manish Goregaokar and Shane Carr. My team worked on a project called ICU4X, which is an open source internationalization library written in Rust. Although I contributed to this a little near the end, I spent most of my time working on the supplemental foreign function interface (FFI) tool, Diplomat.

Monday to-do list:

• Open new branch to continue integration.
• Open new branch to do refactoring changes suggested.

My project: integrating Tokio tracing into Kanidm

Some clarification: my project is not at all related to my proposal. My mentor, William, made it clear before day 1 that I wasn’t strictly bound to my proposal, and I decided I wanted to pursue other avenues.

On Monday, I started out by reviewing William’s PR comments on “Tracing Logging”. I had accidentally committed a few junk files, so the first thing I did was take care of those by adding them to the .gitignore, or by moving the changes to different branches.

June 1

My first “official” day of Google Summer of Code! I started by reading @yaleman’s post about logs, which I thought looked like fun to implement. The first thing I did was read his blog post about the subject, and then read another article he linked about using the tracing Rust crate. After I felt like I had a decent understanding, I followed William’s recommendation to look into the daemon/unix files as a starting place for implementing. However, I ran into a few problems right away.

Google Summer of Code with Kanidm

I’m super excited this summer to be working on Kanidm through Google Summer of Code! This post is here to provide some logistics, discuss how I will track my progress, and outline my goals for the summer.
