Semantic Commit Messages

See how a minor change to your commit message style can make you a better programmer.

Format: <type>(<scope>): <subject>

<scope> is optional

Example

wojteklu

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

1. Follow standard conventions.
2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

// Usage:
//   Copy and paste all of this into a debug console window of the "Who is Hiring?" comment thread 
//   then use as follows:
//
//   query(term | [term, term, ...], term | [term, term, ...], ...)
// 
// When arguments are in an array then that means an "or" and when they are seperate that means "and"
//
// Term is of the format:
//    ((-)text/RegExp)  ( '-' means negation )

Working with ansible-vault

---

I've been using a lot of Ansible lately and while almost everything has been great, finding a clean way to implement ansible-vault wasn't immediately apparent.

What I decided on was the following: put your secret information into a vars file, reference that vars file from your task, and encrypt the whole vars file using ansible-vault encrypt.

Let's use an example: You're writing an Ansible role and want to encrypt the spoiler for the movie Aliens.

    .on('entry', function (entry) {
        entry.pipe(csv2()).on('data', console.log);
    })
;
