How is git commit sha1 formed

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

A way to integrate FosUserBundle and HWIOAuthBundle

I have managed to install this… and make it work. I implemented it for Facebook and Google, but you can extend it. My solution it is mostly as described in #116, with a bit of more code presented. The key aspects that lack in the #116 presentation (IMO) are:

  • the registration as service of your custom FOSUBUserProvider (with the necessary parameters)
  • set the service for oauth_user_provider in the security.yml with your custom created service

Here are the steps:

  1. Routing. In routing.yml I have added all the routes for both bundles.
  2. Configuration. I have set the config.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle.
  3. Security. I have set the security.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle (though my routes are using /login pattern, not /connect). Also, the oauth_user_provider is set for my custom service.

How to change Pantheon Terminal's color scheme

How to change Pantheon Terminal's color scheme

Many of us spend many hours of our days using their terminal. Plus, we all have different tastes when it comes to color schemes. That's why the ability to change the color scheme of a terminal is one of its more important featuresl. Throughout this tutorial, I'll teach you how you can change the looks of your terminal, step by step.

This tutorial is aimed at elementary OS users, but it also works for any Ubuntu user. Start by installing dconf-tools:

sudo apt-get install dconf-tools

Secondly, you need to decide which theme you're going to apply. You can find dozens of terminal color schemes online, you can even design your own using this web application. Design the color scheme, hit "Get Scheme" and choose "Terminator". You'll get a raw text file with a background color, a foreground color and a palette. Those strings define your color scheme. In this tutorial, I'll post an

Symfony2 : How to easily implement a REST API with oAuth2 (for normal guys)

It's still a work in progress...

Intro

As William Durand was recently explaining in his SOS, he "didn't see any other interesting blog post about REST with Symfony recently unfortunately". After spending some long hours to implement an API strongly secured with oAuth, I thought it was time for me to purpose my simple explanation of how to do it.

Ok, you know the bundles

You might have already seen some good explanation of how to easily create a REST API with Symfony2. There are famous really good bundles a.k.a. :

Using Erlang observer/appmon remotely

Using OTP's observer (appmon replacement) remotely

$ ssh remote-host "epmd -names"
epmd: up and running on port 4369 with data:
name some_node at port 58769

Note the running on port for epmd itself and the port of the node you're interested in debugging. Reconnect to the remote host with these ports forwarded:

$ ssh -L 4369:localhost:4369 -L 58769:localhost:58769 remote-host
