Using Dnsmasq with Ubuntu for VM web application testing

When running virtual machines under a Linux host system for testing web apps in various browsers (e.g. Internet Explorer), I found it rather tedious having to continually tweak the hosts file within each VM for the purpose of adding entries pointing back to the host machine's development web server address.

Instead the steps below will setup Dnsmasq on a Ubuntu 16.04LTS, 14.04LTS or 12.04LTS host machine for the purpose of serving both it's own DNS queries and that of virtual machine guests. Dnsmasq will parse the /etc/hosts file on your host machine where we will keep a single set of DNS entires to our test web application(s).

Method 1
- Ubuntu 16.04LTS / 14.04LTS
- Ubuntu 12.04LTS
Method 2
- Stop NetworkManager running it's own Dnsmasq

Cotação de moedas com Planilhas do Google SpreadSheet

Hoje enquanto eu tentava criar minha calculadora de importação de produtos (com tributos, Taxa ~~ilegal~~ de processamento de encomendas internacionais e IOF). Com isso precisava de dados de conversão autmática de valores em Dollar americano para o Real brasileiro (USD -> BRL). A melhor solução que encontrei foi efetuar a pesquisa de cotação na url do google finance convert em https://www.google.com/finance/converter?a=1&from=USD&to=BRL. Bem tendo a url que nos retorna um documento HTML vamos pegar o dados com a função IMPORTXML

ImportXML(url; xpath query)

Importa dados de qualquer um dos vários tipos de dados estruturados, incluindo XML, HTML, CSV, TSV e XML de feeds RSS e Atom.

Com isso tenho o resultado como texto, ai tive de converter a planilha para formatação U.S.A para usar ponto como separador decimal e usar a formula de regex [0-9]*\.[0-9]+[0-9]+para extrair apenas o valor numérico. Minha formula completa

Howto use dnsdock in Ubuntu 14.04 trusty

Using dnsdock resolves the problem of the changing IP's of containers. It is much easier to start a named container and use dns on the host to access the container simply by its name.

patch your /etc/ files so NetworkManager's dnsmasq to use the dnsdock nameserver.

sudo su -
cd
wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/fjmk/a2bc6f9e01df9966c17b/raw/ad58b0823271e2f448df21f8a2226b719dec9353/etc-dnsdock.patch
cd /etc
