Workaround for ApplicationInsights-node.js #1411 - Error.cause chain support

Error.cause Chain Workaround for Application Insights Node.js

Workaround for microsoft/ApplicationInsights-node.js#1411.

Problem

Node.js v16.9+ supports Error.cause for chaining exceptions, but the Application Insights Node.js SDK only captures the top-level error. The TelemetryExceptionData.exceptions array always contains a single entry even though the schema supports chains via id/outerId.

Updating expired GPG keys and their backup 🔑🔐💻

I use a GPG key to sign my git commits.

An error like this one might be a sign of an expired GPG key.

error: gpg failed to sign the data fatal: failed to write commit object

ssh tunneling and port forwarding

###Single hop tunelling:

ssh -f -N -L 9906:127.0.0.1:3306 user@dev.example.com

where,

  • -f puts ssh in background
  • -N makes it not execute a remote command

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
