🌀 A nonsense activity generator

genact - a nonsense activity generator

Pretend to be busy or waiting for your computer when you should actually be doing real work! Impress people with your insane multitasking skills. Just open a few instances of genact and watch the show. genact has multiple scenes that pretend to be doing something exciting or useful when in reality nothing is happening at all.

Installation

You don't have to install anything! For your convenience, prebuilt binaries for Linux, OSX and Windows are provided here that should run without any dependencies. Additionally, there is a web version at https://svenstaro.github.io/genact/

It's compatible with FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, Windows, and most modern web browsers that support WebAssembly.

On FreeBSD: You don't have to do anything special here. Just run

pkg install genact
genact

On Linux: Download genact-linux from the releases page and run

chmod +x genact-linux
./genact-linux

On macOS: Download genact-osx from the releases page and run

chmod +x genact-osx
./genact-osx

A homebrew package is also available. To install it this way, run

brew install genact

On macOS, you can also install via MacPorts:

sudo port install genact

On Windows: Download genact-win.exe from the releases page and double click it.

It is also available on Scoop:

scoop install genact

With Cargo: If you have a somewhat recent version of Rust and Cargo installed, you can run

cargo install genact
genact

Running

To see a list of all available options, you can run

./genact -h

or

cargo run -- -h

or (on Docker)

docker run -it --rm svenstaro/genact -h

Usage

A nonsense activity generator

Usage: genact [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -l, --list-modules                               List available modules
  -m, --modules <MODULES>                          Run only these modules [possible values: ansible, bootlog, botnet, bruteforce, cargo, cc,
                                                   composer, cryptomining, docker_build, docker_image_rm, download, julia, kernel_compile, memdump,
                                                   mkinitcpio, rkhunter, simcity, terraform, weblog]
  -s, --speed-factor <SPEED_FACTOR>                Global speed factor [default: 1]
  -i, --instant-print-lines <INSTANT_PRINT_LINES>  Instantly print this many lines [default: 0]
      --exit-after-time <EXIT_AFTER_TIME>          Exit after running for this long (format example: 2h10min)
      --exit-after-modules <EXIT_AFTER_MODULES>    Exit after running this many modules
      --print-completions <shell>                  Generate completion file for a shell [possible values: bash, elvish, fish, powershell, zsh]
      --print-manpage                              Generate man page
  -h, --help                                       Print help
  -V, --version                                    Print version

Web usage

In the web version, you can run specific modules by providing them as ?module parameters like this: https://svenstaro.github.io/genact?module=cc&module=memdump

You can also provide a ?speed-factor like this: https://svenstaro.github.io/genact?speed-factor=5

Building

You should have a recent version of rust and cargo installed.

Then, just clone it like usual and cargo run to get output:

git clone https://github.com/svenstaro/genact.git
cd genact
cargo run --release

Releasing

This is mostly a note for me on how to release this thing:

• Make sure CHANGELOG.md is up to date.
• cargo release <version>
• cargo release --execute <version>
• Releases will automatically be deployed by GitHub Actions.
• Update Arch package.

genact's Issues

Termux support

It would be fun to have it running on Android using Termux and do some Watch_Dogs stuff!

Implement some kind of graphing module

It would be sooo cool to have animated drawille graphs that change while the module is running.

Imagine this but animated:

Module: Malware / Rootkit Check

Implement a module that runs anti malware checks, for example like rhunter:

Could also display bold warnings like "Machine infected" or something like that.

Add global speed option

All sleep calls have a base speed but I think it'd be pretty cool if a global speed factor could be provided to slow down/speed up everything.

Problem When Using Index.html

When I Download The Genact-Master And Run The Index.html File Half Of The Webpage Is Black And The Other Side Is White
Please Fix This
Btw Im On Chromebook So That Might Explain The Problem

Module: Docker build process

I already implemented the Docker image/container deletion but just had the idea of an even better module: the Docker build process. Building images with Docker usually takes a lot of time and there's many generic output.

$ docker build .

How to exit?

This might be obvious, but I couldn't find a key combination to exit.

Of course I could kill the process from another terminal, but...

This felt like just the first time that I typed the command "vi" in terminal

EDIT: nevermind... OSX messed with my keyboard again and CTR-C didn't work as expected.. sorry!

Build a module using rain

https://crates.io/crates/rain

I think it's just so cool.

Use fake-factory for some things

Feature request: exit after x amount of clusters

I love this little program it added some fun boot gibberish top a little fake program i am writing together. Provided a little screenshot from it below.

One thing i would love to have is a param similar to the -s that limits amount of blocks used instead of a set time.
This especially useful for the botnet or downloading simulations were you want it to stop after a set amount of gibberish.

Feature request: Screensaver

Would it be possible to turn this into a screensaver for macOS?

Thanks!

[suggestion] add ansible module

Running an average ansible playbook lakes a lots of outputs and takes a good amount of time.

That would make a great module IMHO.

Investigate whether we can use tui

https://github.com/fdehau/tui-rs

This might be a problem in the web version.

Module list (`genact --help` & `genact --list-modules`) is unordered.

As the title says, module list output of genact --help or genact --list-modules is unordered,
will change of each run. Also, I noticed the random module choice does not rely on HashMap's randomness.

Wanted to know if someone else has faced this issue before and ways to solve this.

Will the npm command be added?

deep learning feature

using gpt-2/transformer pretrain NLP mdoel to generat more real log

and deep network trainning process generator

Docker support

Could you create a docker image and push to docker hub for running it without downloading any additional files? This seems to be quick option to get new users as they only have to run single command instead of trying to download correct binaries and then figure out how to launch them.

Time to Live support

It will be perfect if we have a ttl feature. We could setup something like -t 15m and the program will stop dumping after 15 minutes.

Switch from wasm-pack to trunk

Once trunk is a little more mature, we should switch from wasm-pack as it's more in line with what we're doing here. wasm-pack never was a perfect fit.

add genact-osx to Homebrew

make genact-osx available in package manager for macOS Homebrew so it can be installed like:

brew install genact

build-web generate a index file that resource path contains /genact

When I use trunk build --release build a web page, The resource path of the index.html file contains /genact.

I need you to recognize just how awesome this project, and you, are - seriously, fucking brilliant **)

False positives?

When you scan the windows binaries on virustotal 5 scanners detect a trojan. Are these false positives or is this actual malware?
With these Terminal applications this happens quite often to me that these get flagged.

Terraform module hangs in the web version

The Terraform module hangs with the message "Acquiring state lock. This may take a few moments..." when accessed via the web version at https://svenstaro.github.io/genact/

The issue appears to be with the code, where the sleep command doesn't terminate:

print("Acquiring state lock. This may take a few moments...\r\n").await;
csleep(500).await;

Or could the problem lie with a subsequent operation that fails to execute?

The implementation of the sleep function is consistent with its use in other modules.

Switch to weak_rng?

Certainly seems no need for cryptographic security here. I've got code for it if you like.

Mac OSX binaries missing

It looks like the OSX binaries are missing from the releases page: https://github.com/svenstaro/genact/releases

Add some line bursting mode to bootlog

It would be cool if the bootlog module behaved a bit more realistically in the way that it would sometimes burst a bunch of lines really quickly.

我是罪人，我不努力工作，我上班摸鱼，我摸鱼就用genact！

Thanks!

Reimplement old module: botnet

golang implementation for genact

Hi, @svenstaro

Thanks for your brilliant works. genact is an awesome project and I have ported the code to the Go language named oscar

here is the project link: https://github.com/chenjiandongx/oscar

Now I can take a rest and drink coffee seriously. lol 🐶

Add web server logging modules

There should modules simulating web server logs.

nice and fun app

But Can I get a App format so that I can install and run on MacOSX . also supports M1 /. M2 chips? Thanks.

which compile tools do you used?

which compile tools do you prebuilt binaries for Linux?

Add an on-screen percentage based on the -exitafter time given

Thanks for creating such a handy little tool. It would be great if a percentage could be shown on the screen that correlated with the time given in the -e or -exitafter switches, so that the percentage complete was calculated based on the remaining time until the process will stop.

Maybe it can use a fixed row at the bottom of the terminal, with the output continuing above it?

Also compile this for the web and host it on Github pages

Publish to crates.io

This would make installation better.

[Feature Request] fill up screen on start

Is there a way to have the first n lines printed immediately upon execution, so it appears that the activity is already in progress? I'd imagine something like setting any pauses to 0 for the first n lines of code.

make it a windows screen saver?

Investigate compressing data files

Maybe I can cut the size down by compressing stuff in data/ during build time (with build.rs) and then decompressing it during runtime. Gotta investigate.

Compiled on Termux

As I tried to compile it on Android 9 with Last Termux and last rust and cargo
Cargo It's fine and rust is working

Android : 9
Rust : 1.40.0

The error was this :
I think its need some changes in Cargo.toml

Module: Docker image / container deletion

If you work a lot with Docker you probably used the prune function. Docker then deletes old stuff, the deletion of images is the most interesting one as if generates a lot of output.

So it's basically two lines with a randomly generated package name and then a bunch of lines with SHA256 hashes. The number of lines depends on the size of the image.
Inspirations for package names can be found in the Docker Hub.

Heads-up: FreeBSD port is on its way

FYI, genact is going to be included in the FreeBSD ports collection soon.

The PR is available here: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=228306

When it's pulled it will be able to install a prebuilt genact package with:

pkg install genact

Nice and easy. You can start generating nonsense in no time.

Cheers! 😄
