Get a Python subprocess' output without buffering. Normally when you want to get the output of a subprocess in Python you have to wait until the process finishes. This is bad for long running processes. Here's a way to get the output unbuffered (in real-time.)
import contextlib
import subprocess
# Unix, Windows and old Macintosh end-of-line
newlines = ['\n', '\r\n', '\r']
def unbuffered(proc, stream='stdout'):
stream = getattr(proc, stream)
with contextlib.closing(stream):
while True:
out = []

git pr - Global .gitconfig aliases for Pull Request Managment

Install

Either copy the aliases from the .gitconfig or run the commands in add-pr-alias.sh

Usage

Easily checkout local copies of pull requests from remotes:

  • git pr 4 - creates local branch pr/4 from the github upstream(if it exists) or origin remote and checks it out
  • git pr 4 someremote - creates local branch pr/4 from someremote remote and checks it out

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

One of the best ways to reduce complexity (read: stress) in web development is to minimize the differences between your development and production environments. After being frustrated by attempts to unify the approach to SSL on my local machine and in production, I searched for a workflow that would make the protocol invisible to me between all environments.

Most workflows make the following compromises:

  • Use HTTPS in production but HTTP locally. This is annoying because it makes the environments inconsistent, and the protocol choices leak up into the stack. For example, your web application needs to understand the underlying protocol when using the secure flag for cookies. If you don't get this right, your HTTP development server won't be able to read the cookies it writes, or worse, your HTTPS production server could pass sensitive cookies over an insecure connection.

  • Use production SSL certificates locally. This is annoying

RabbitMQ Basics

As demonstrated by the tutorials on the website, RabbitMQ can be used for everything from queuing background work to building RPC systems. To use RabbitMQ effectively, it is important to understand the core concepts: queues, exchanges, bindings, and messages. The documentation on rabbitmq.com is excellent, so I won't go into much depth, but it's worth briefly mentioning the core ideas.

Basic Terminology

Exchanges are where messages are sent. Every time a message is pushed in to RabbitMQ, it goes through an exchange.
