Whirlwind tour of correct `npm` usage

This is a quick tour of how to get started with NPM, how to use it, and how to fix it.

I'm available for tutoring and code review :)

You may reuse all my gists for any purpose under the WTFPL / CC0 (whichever you prefer).

Starting a new project

Create a folder for your project, preferably a Git repository. Navigate into that folder, and run:

Got flaky tests? Shampoo them away with a quick JUnit rule. Apache 2.
import org.junit.rules.TestRule;
import org.junit.runner.Description;
import org.junit.runners.model.Statement;
/** Got flaky tests? Shampoo them away. */
public final class ShampooRule implements TestRule {
private final int iterations;
public ShampooRule(int iterations) {
if (iterations < 1) throw new IllegalArgumentException("iterations < 1: " + iterations);

Exercism and IntelliJ IDEA

So, you want to use IntelliJ IDEA for your Exercism.io Java exercises?

Here’s my workflow. Note, using IntelliJ IDEA CE 14.

Gradle setup

  • [ ] cd to $EXERCISM_DIR/java/the-exercise
  • [ ] Run gradle idea to generate the *.iml* and =.idea files/dirs
Unless specified otherwise, all of the below tinting applies to both Lollipop and pre-Lollipop using AppCompat v21.
To use the support version of these attributes, remove the android namespace.
For instance, "android:colorControlNormal" becomes "colorControlNormal".
These attributes will be propagated to their corresponding attributes within the android namespace
for devices running Lollipop. Any exceptions to this will be noted by including the "android:" prefix.

With the new theming in AppCompat, a lot of assets are tinted automatically for you via theme attributes. That has often led me to wonder "where the hell did this color come from?" You can replace your normal theme with this debug theme to help figure out the source of that color.
<!-- You can change the parent around to whatever you normally use -->
<style name="DebugColors" parent="Theme.AppCompat">
<!-- System colors -->
<item name="android:windowBackground">@color/__debugWindowBackground</item>
<item name="android:colorPressedHighlight">#FF4400</item>
<item name="android:colorLongPressedHighlight">#FF0044</item>
<item name="android:colorFocusedHighlight">#44FF00</item>
<item name="android:colorActivatedHighlight">#00FF44</item>

# A hook script that checks the length of the commit message.

# Called by "git commit" with one argument, the name of the file
# that has the commit message. The hook should exit with non-zero

Android Studio Shortcuts (Mac)

Notes:

  • Two of the most useful shortcuts utilize the Fn (function) keys. It is therefore recommended that you enable the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" option [System Preferences > Keyboard].
  • Be sure to enable the Mac OS X 10.5+ keymap in Android Studio [Preferences > Keymap].
  • A fairly complete shortcut list can be found here.
