abbeyjackson / HTML to NSAttributed String
Last active December 18, 2015 16:37
NSAttributed String from an HTML JSON response. Rather than putting it in a web view with dynamic height, can convert to an attributed string with formatting.
func getJSONData() -> NSData? {
guard let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("staticText", ofType: "json") else {
print("error finding file")
return nil
}
return NSData(contentsOfFile: path)

abbeyjackson / Add feature branch name to commit - Global
Created November 24, 2015 17:03
Add feature branch name to git commit messages. Either do the global option or to add this to a repo, you can place the file in .git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg and make that file executable http://blog.bartoszmajsak.com/blog/2012/11/07/lazy-developers-toolbox-number-1-prepend-git-commit-messages/ https://coderwall.com/p/jp7d5q/create-a-global-git-…
git config --global init.templatedir '~/.git-templates'
mkdir -p ~/.git-templates/hooks
# Create ~/.git-templates/hooks/prepare-commit-msg with the above content
chmod +x ~/.git-templates/hooks/prepare-commit-msg
# In any existing git repos you want to have this hook
git init # this will copy the hooks into the git repo, but will not overwrite any existing hooks

abbeyjackson / Protocol Delegate Pattern Explained
Created November 16, 2015 17:22
From ios-Developers Donny Wals.
Donny Wals [8:46 AM]
Imagine this, we’re going to build a house together. You are really good at the designing and overall building but plumbing isn’t your thing. So you want me to do the plumbing for you. You define a set of skills I need to have such as this list:
protocol NinjaPlumber {
func fixSink()
func layDownPipes()
func makeSureNothingIsClogged() -> Bool
func dance() // because we all need a dancing plumber
}
