Storing Images and Demos in your Repo

Storing Images and Demos in your Repo

In this quick walkthough you'll learn how to create a separate branch in your repo to house your screenshots and demo gifs for use in your master's readme.

How to

1. Clone a fresh copy of your repo

In order to prevent any loss of work it is best to clone the repo in a separate location to complete this task.

2. Create a new branch

Create a new branch in your repo by using git checkout --orphan assets

Simple automated GIT Deployment using Hooks

Simple automated GIT Deployment using GIT Hooks

Here are the simple steps needed to create a deployment from your local GIT repository to a server based on this in-depth tutorial.

How it works

You are developing in a working-copy on your local machine, lets say on the master branch. Most of the time, people would push code to a remote server like github.com or gitlab.com and pull or export it to a production server. Or you use a service like deepl.io to act upon a Web-Hook that's triggered that service.

Install node & npm on Mac OS X with Homebrew

DEPRECATED as of macOS 10.13 (High Sierra). See the new GUIDE to install nvm and yarn for macOS (updated July 2019)

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.

Solution

This solution fixes the error caused by trying to run npm update npm -g. Once you're finished, you also won't need to use sudo to install npm modules globally.

Basic RESTful API with Symfony 2 + FOSRestBundle (JSON format only) + FOSUserBundle + FOSOauthServerBundle

Basic RESTful API with Symfony 2 + FOSRestBundle (JSON format only) + FOSUserBundle + FOSOauthServerBundle

The API we are creating in this gist will follow these rules :

  • The API only returns JSON responses
  • All API routes require authentication
  • Authentication is handled via OAuth2 with password Grant Type only (no need for Authorization pages and such).
  • API versioning is managed via a subdomain (e.g. v1.api.example.com)

The API will be written in PHP with the Symfony 2 framework. The following SF2 bundles are used :

PostgreSQL command line cheatsheet

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

  • -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
  • -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)
