Notepad++ syntax highlighting for Dockerfiles (Dark version)

Store userDefineLang_DockerfileDark.xml at %AppData%\Roaming\Notepad++\userDefineLangs\userDefineLang_DockerfileDark.xml and select Language > Dockerfile in Notepad++.

This color theme is specifically compatible with VS2015-Dark-Npp Theme.

Automatically apply style

An opinionated nextcloud ignore list for developers (sync-exclude.lst)

The latest nextcloud server versions will have ransomware detection automatically enabled, meaning that syncing common developer file types (e.g. .lock) will return errors.

Fatal webdav OCA\DAV\Connector\Sabre\Exception\Forbidden: Ransomware file detected. Prevented upload of ..py/bokeh/secrets.tar.enc because it matches extension pattern ".enc"

If you are syncing complex, nested work directories as a developer, the following

Just to memorize, these are the steps to setup webdriver (chrome) and svg-export as of Bokeh 2.4.3 / Holoviews 1.14.8

This was tested in a Debian-based Docker container, but should work in most Linux distributions.

Install Selenium

Install in your conda environment:

conda install selenium webdriver-manager -c conda-forge

The instructions below are based on rupor-github/wsl-ssh-agent and benpye/wsl-ssh-pageant/issues/33.

Install dependencies:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install socat p7zip-full

Get npiperelay.exe, store it on the Windows side and make it available in Linux with correct permissions.

I have a number of monthly manual tasks that I could not automate so far.

One of them is getting PDF from login-protected websites, saving them in specific folders with naming conventions (renaming etc.) and uploading those to my nextcloud.

The script below is for my Electricity Provider's PDFs. They are behind a simple login form (user & pw) and uploaded for the past 6 months. I always forget to check regularly enough to download all.

Two key takeaways:

Use selenium/standalone-chrome Docker image

For backwards compatibility, I wished to batch convert all the *.indd files on my drive to *.idml.

The files are spread over my whole drive.

Here are the steps:

1. Get a list of `*.idml` files and paths

Use any search tool. Since Windows Search does not work on my side, I am using WSL:

Example to retrieve all WFS Features and store as shapefile with pandas and geopandas.

Setup:

conda create -n wfs_env -c conda-forge
conda activate wfs_env
conda install owslib geopandas requests

First, check capabilities in browser :

	from fastapi import FastAPI
	from pydantic import BaseModel, validator, BaseConfig
	from geoalchemy2 import WKTElement
	from geoalchemy2.shape import to_shape

	"""Minimum working example snippet for handling lat lng coordinates and geometry types using Fastapi"""

	app = FastAPI()
