Rsync over SSH - (40MB/s over 1GB NICs)

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

  • a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
  • H: preserves hard-links
  • A: preserves ACLs

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

I recently had the following problem:

  • From an unattended shell script (called by Jenkins), run a command-line tool that accesses the MySQL database on another host.
  • That tool doesn't know that the database is on another host, plus the MySQL port on that host is firewalled and not accessible from other machines.

We didn't want to open the MySQL port to the network, but it's possible to SSH from the Jenkins machine to the MySQL machine. So, basically you would do something like

ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 remotehost

How composer actually works

Composer

the missing quick-start guide

We will assume we have a package/project called https://github.com/foo/bar

Most redistributable packages are hosted on a version control website such as Github or Bitbucket. Version control repositories often have a tagging system where we can define stable versions of our application. For example with git we can use the command:

git tag -a 1.0.0 -m 'First version.'

With this we have created version 1.0.0 of our application. This is a stable release which people can depend on. If we wanted to include "foo/bar" then we could create a composer.json and specify the tagged release we wanted:

Homebrew + RVM > Awesome

The MBP is my development machine, so I needed all of my tools installed with the ability to update them with ease. In the past, I used MacPorts to take care of my MySQL, Memcached, and Ruby installions and it worked just fine. This time around however, I wanted something new and fun. Homebrew.

Homebrew is a new package manager for OS X. Unlike Fink or MacPorts, Homebrew integrates with the core operating system, reducing the number of extra libraries to install etc. Another neat feature is the ability to write software package recipes in Ruby, awesome.

Here are some raw installation instructions (clean system). I like to keep everything under user ownership to make life more enjoyable, say no to sudo.

You will need the latest version of xcode, you can get it here. After the installation is complete, you may continue.

sudo mkdir /usr/local

This snippet of code is syntactically valid in both PHP and Java, and produces the same output in both.
/*<?php

//\u000A\u002F\u002A
class PhpJava {
static function main() {
echo(//\u000A\u002A\u002F
"Hello World!");
}}
//\u000A\u002F\u002A
PhpJava::main();
