A week ago I was CC'd in on a thread about Linux packaging, and how to avoid doing it the wrong way (i.e. RPM, Deb, etc.). I've always used MojoSetup and I've never forced distributions to do any additional work, but this is still a new concept to a lot of people. Additionally, Amos suggested that I expand on Itch's FNA appendix, so here's a guide on how I package my games.

This is a bit of an expansion on my MAGFest 2016 presentation, which you can find here:

I would recommend looking at that first! After that, read on...

Common Options

-#, --progress-bar Make curl display a simple progress bar instead of the more informational standard meter.

-b, --cookie <name=data> Supply cookie with request. If no =, then specifies the cookie file to use (see -c).

-c, --cookie-jar <file name> File to save response cookies to.

How to generate and apply patches with git?

It sometimes happen you need change code on a machine from which you cannot push to the repo. You’re ready to copy/paste what diff outputs to your local working copy.

You think there must be a better way to proceed and you’re right. It’s a simple 2 steps process:

1. Generate the patch:

git diff &gt; some-changes.patch

README

Services declared as oneshot are expected to take some action and exit immediatelly (thus, they are not really services, no running processes remain). A common pattern for these type of service is to be defined by a setup and a teardown action.

Let's create a example foo service that when started creates a file, and when stopped it deletes it.

Define setup/teardown actions

Create executable file /opt/foo/setup-foo.sh:

Jenkins plugins

You can read more about each plugin using the SEARCH box at Jenkins homepage.

ChuckNorris Plugin: Displays a picture of Chuck Norris (instead of Jenkins the butler) and a random Chuck Norris 'The Programmer' fact on each build page.

Maintenance

thinBackup: This plugin simply backs up the global and job specific configurations (not the archive or the workspace).
JobConfigHistory Plugin: Saves copies of all job and system configurations.

	Uncensoring study.com lessons is actually pretty simple- it only requires devling into the developer-tools in Google Chrome
	NOTE: This trick only unblocks the lesson transcripts, I haven't explored getting access to the full lesson video yet.

	Here are the steps:
	1. Go to a lesson of choice on study.com and open the developer-tools in Chrome (example URL:
	http://study.com/academy/lesson/root-cap-function-definition-quiz.html)
	2. Use the page inspector tool and select the "Lesson Transcript" text. Confirm that in the Elements tab of the dev tools,
	the line "<span>Lesson Transcript</span>" is highlighted (should be under a div that has the id "transcriptHeader")
	3. Hit the dropdown triangles of "<div class="transcriptContainer articleContent" data-cname="main_content>" and
	<div id="mainArticle" class="transcript" data-cname="lesson_transcript"> (the latter should appear after the contents of

	#!/usr/bin/expect -f

	set prompt "#"
	set address [lindex $argv 0]

	spawn sudo bluetoothctl -a
	expect -re $prompt
	send "remove $address\r"
	sleep 1
	expect -re $prompt

	import logging
	from StringIO import StringIO as StringBuffer

	logger = logging.getLogger('basic_logger')
	logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

	### Setup the console handler with a StringIO object
	log_capture_string = StringBuffer()
	# log_capture_string.encoding = 'cp1251'
	ch = logging.StreamHandler(log_capture_string)

	var upgradeManagerPrefilter;
	if (!upgradeManagerPrefilter) {
	// add prefilter on first run
	$J.ajaxPrefilter(function() {
	if (upgradeManagerPrefilter) {
	upgradeManagerPrefilter.apply(this, arguments);
	}
	});
	}
