Sublime Text 2 - Useful Shortcuts

Tested in Mac OS X: super == command

Open/Goto

super+t: go to file
super+ctrl+p: go to project
super+r: go to methods

Creating a Happy Git Environment on OS X

brew install git bash-completion

Configure things:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

Prerequisites

Somewhat modern version of OpenSSH
Server you have SSH access to in the region you want to stream from.

Bummed about region lock? Start up your terminal and do this:

$ ssh -N -D 9999 yourserver.com

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

OBSOLETE

This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

I still believe it is better to manually install npm separately since having a generic package manager maintain another package manager is a bad idea, but the instructions below don't explain how to do that.

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.
