Heads up, glot.io v2 will release very soon. This will make glot easier to maintain and to iterate on new features, but some things, like the public api will disappear and not make it back in its current form.
Some news:
- All languages has been updated
- The root filesystem is now mounted as read-only (OWASP recommendation)
- You can now run code with cmd+enter / ctrl+enter
See more changes in the changelog: github.com/glotcode/glot/blo…
Languages are now defined in a @dhall_lang config! This makes it possible to change and add languages without recompiling.
Some of the Dhall features we take advantage of: types, multiline strings, code generation in Haskell.
Ref. github.com/glotcode/glot-www…
We will soon go down a couple of hours for maintenance.
Details:
glot-snippets has been reimplemented in glot-www and all snippets will be migrated from CouchDB to PostgreSQL.
This means we will have no more Erlang dependencies and will be easier to deploy 🥳
docker-run is the new code runner api that is used on glot.io, read more about it there: blog.glot.io/a-new-code-runn…
In other news, some of the services have been rewritten in Rust and has been live on glot.io the last couple of weeks, see: github.com/glotcode
Stay tuned for more information
All languages have been updated! Note that the perl6 image has been renamed to raku and mono to csharp/fsharp
The python:2 and javascript:es6 images has been deprecated and will not be updated anymore
Also, the images are now built with nix which gives us reproducible images!

Yeah, @digitalocean disconnected the vm from the network because someone saved a snippet that contains Windows malware. Waiting for them to connect it again.
