Welcome to our first blog post about automation! This is a sample post to get you started.

What’s New in Automation

Here’s a cool Python script that demonstrates automated task scheduling:

import schedule
import time
from datetime import datetime

class AutomationBot:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.status = "idle"
    
    def execute_task(self, task_name):
        print(f"🤖 [{datetime.now()}] Bot {self.name} executing: {task_name}")
        self.status = "running"
        # Simulate task execution
        time.sleep(2)
        self.status = "completed"
        
    def get_status(self):
        return f"Status: {self.status}"

# Create an instance of our bot
cyber_bot = AutomationBot("CyberBot-X9")

# Schedule some tasks
def daily_routine():
    cyber_bot.execute_task("System Optimization")
    print(cyber_bot.get_status())

schedule.every().day.at("03:00").do(daily_routine)

And here’s how we can set up a modern Node.js automation server:

const express = require('express');
const { Worker } = require('worker_threads');
const neon = require('neon-js');  // Fictional package for cool effects

class AutomationServer {
    constructor() {
        this.app = express();
        this.tasks = new Map();
        this.init();
    }

    async init() {
        // Configure neon effects
        neon.configure({
            color: '#00ff9f',
            intensity: 0.8,
            pulse: true
        });

        // Set up API endpoints
        this.app.post('/api/tasks', (req, res) => {
            const taskId = crypto.randomUUID();
            this.tasks.set(taskId, {
                status: 'initializing',
                timestamp: Date.now()
            });
            
            // Start task in background
            const worker = new Worker('./taskWorker.js');
            worker.postMessage({ taskId });
            
            res.json({ taskId });
        });
    }
}

// Start the server
const server = new AutomationServer();
console.log('🚀 Server ready for cyber-operations');

You can also use shell scripts for automation:

#!/bin/bash

# Cyber-style status function
function show_status() {
    echo -e "\e[38;5;51m[*] $1\e[0m"
}

# Main automation loop
while true; do
    show_status "Scanning system..."
    
    # Check system resources
    MEMORY=$(free -m | awk 'NR==2{printf "%.2f%%", $3*100/$2}')
    CPU=$(top -bn1 | grep "Cpu(s)" | awk '{print $2}')
    
    show_status "Memory Usage: $MEMORY"
    show_status "CPU Load: $CPU%"
    
    sleep 5
done

Advanced Features

Here’s some CSS for styling your automation dashboard:

.dashboard {
    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.9);
    border: 2px solid #00ff9f;
    box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(0, 255, 159, 0.3);
}

.metric {
    color: #00ccff;
    font-family: 'Courier New', monospace;
    animation: pulse 2s infinite;
}

@keyframes pulse {
    0% { text-shadow: 0 0 5px #00ccff; }
    50% { text-shadow: 0 0 20px #00ccff; }
    100% { text-shadow: 0 0 5px #00ccff; }
}

These code examples demonstrate different aspects of automation while showcasing our cyberpunk theme’s code highlighting capabilities.
