Automounting NFS share in OS X into /Volumes

I have spent quite a bit of time figuring out automounts of NFS shares in OS X...

Somewhere along the line, Apple decided allowing mounts directly into /Volumes should not be possible:

/etc/auto_master (see last line):

#
# Automounter master map
#

+auto_master # Use directory service

Caching debian package installation with docker

TLDR: I now add the following snippet to all my Dockerfiles:

# If host is running squid-deb-proxy on port 8000, populate /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy
# By default, squid-deb-proxy 403s unknown sources, so apt shouldn't proxy ppa.launchpad.net
RUN route -n | awk '/^0.0.0.0/ {print $2}' > /tmp/host_ip.txt
RUN echo "HEAD /" | nc `cat /tmp/host_ip.txt` 8000 | grep squid-deb-proxy \
  && (echo "Acquire::http::Proxy \"http://$(cat /tmp/host_ip.txt):8000\";" > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy) \
  && (echo "Acquire::http::Proxy::ppa.launchpad.net DIRECT;" >> /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy) \
  || echo "No squid-deb-proxy detected on docker host"

Two commands needed to perform UTF-8 NFD to NFC decomposition on all files in a directory, and uploading the resulting directory to a webserver. Useful for treating files created on a Linux server (NFC), downloaded to Mac OS X (NFD) and needing to be uploaded back to the original server (NFC). Must, naturally, be run on Linux or at least used on…
#!/usr/bin/env bash
convmv -f utf8 -t utf8 --nfc --replace --nosmart --no-test -r uploads/

Python script for monitoring an IMAP folder
Each existing unread and subsequent new emails after the script is started are
passed as Mail objects to "process_email" function.Function header is provided
but processing implementation is left to the user. Error logs are currently sent
to a rotating log file (in the same directory as the script) and to STDOUT.
Instead of polling or checking the server for new emails every now and then,
IMAP IDLE check is utilized. Ensure that the IMAP server supports IDLE command
and allows at least 5 minutes of idling*** and uses the default ports for this
script to work. Tested to work with Gmail and default installations of MS
Exchange Server.
