ttscoff / allpinboard.rb
Created September 24, 2012 00:09
Grab all Pinboard.in bookmarks for your account, create a bookmark file for Launchbar indexing
#!/usr/bin/ruby
=begin
This script is designed to generate a simple html file with _all_ of your Pinboard.in bookmarks
The HTML file can be added to Launchbar's index as a custom bookmark file and you can search
your entire Pinboard.in collection instantly from Launchbar (by title only). It includes
any applied tags as part of the title to aid in searching.
This does no checking for deltas, it just grabs the whole bunch and overwrites the html file
every time. Don't run it too frequently.

Three ways to use it:
- Pipe indented (tabs or 2 spaces) text to the script
- e.g. `cat "mytemplate" | planter.rb
- Create template.tpl files in ~/.planter and call them by their base name

Installation tips for RVM/Ruby on OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion

Ruby, RVM and Mountain Lion

Key problems

Mountain Lion (10.8) has three main difference compared to Lion (10.7):

  • XCode 4.4 does not install Command Line Tools by default
  • X11 isn't available anymore
  • The installed version of OpenSSL has some bugs

How to work around

Turning an existing GitHub Issue into a Pull Request

Why?

This command attaches code (pull request) to an existing issue. This prevents:

  • creating a new issue when opening a new pull-request
  • splitting an on-growing discussion from an issue into an pull request issue

Usage?

You can use personal and organization github names and their branches.

git pull-request -i issue-number-without-the-# -b request-to-branch -h request-from-branch

Using Dropbox to Share Git Repositories

Using Dropbox to Share Git Repositories

First, create a Git subfolder inside your Dropbox folder. Then you can share the individual projects inside that folder with whomever you want (or just use it for instant offsite backups).

From inside a Git project:

git clone --bare . ~/Dropbox/Git/gitproject.git
git remote add dropbox ~/Dropbox/Git/gitproject.git

When you're ready to push:
