Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

docker-compose reference YAML file with comments
# https://docs.docker.com/compose/yml/
# Each service defined in docker-compose.yml must specify exactly one of
# image or build. Other keys are optional, and are analogous to their
# docker run command-line counterparts.
#
# As with docker run, options specified in the Dockerfile (e.g., CMD,
# EXPOSE, VOLUME, ENV) are respected by default - you don't need to
# specify them again in docker-compose.yml.

GIS with pySpark.
NOTE : Take a look at the comments below !

GIS with pySpark : A not-so-easy journey

Why would you do that ?

Today, many datas are geolocalised (meaning that they have a position in space). They're named GIS datas.

It's not rare that we need to do operations on those, such as aggregations, and there are many optimisations existing to do that.
