Mac bash upgrade to mitigate the Shellshock exploit

	# shellshock upgrade & patch for Mac OSX
	# OSX ships with a horribly old version of bash (3.2) which is vulnerable to
	# the Shellshock exploit (CVE-2014-6271)
	# We use homebrew to get a recent version of bash, then symlink it to
	# /bin/bash and /bin/sh (because sh is really bash)
	#
	# Use this to see if you're vulnerable
	# env X="() { :;} ; echo vulnerable" /bin/bash -c "echo testing"

	brew update && brew install bash

thom-nic / Dockerfile

Last active October 19, 2025 12:43

Dockerfile that attempts to run the app as non-root user. This creates a `node` user & sets permissions on app files. Note you cannot `chown` files in a docker 'volume' during the build process, but you can at runtime (as part of your `CMD`) but in that case you can't use the `USER` command to change the UID before `CMD` runs.

	###
	# Node.js app Docker file
	#
	# Some basic build instructions:
	# ```
	# # you should delete node_modules b/c you don't want that copied during 'ADD'
	# docker build -t thom-nic/node-bootstrap .
	# # run a shell in the container to inspect the environment (as root):
	# docker run --rm -itu root thom-nic/node-bootstrap /bin/bash
	# ```

thom-nic / record.py

Created January 3, 2014 15:55

inspired by collections.namedtuple, I wanted an easy struct-type for data objects without the boilerplate __init__() method for setting all instance attributes from the argument list. I also added some features to namedtuple, most notably mutable properties & default values. It can be extended to act as a base for any class definition.

	import sys

	def Record(name, required, **defaults):
	required = tuple(required.split())

	class RecordBase(object):
	__slots__ = required + tuple(defaults.keys())

	def __init__(self, args, *kwargs):
	all_args = set()
