• Datasets first, APIs second - Doing any kind of aggregate analysis usually requires working with complete datasets. REST APIs aren't ideal for this use case. APIs are not data, they are a means of exposing it.
• Machine-friendly retrieval of raw datasets - Avoid the assumption that there's a human, using a web browser, manually clicking a link. For example, scripts that fetch new daily crime data via curl would be a likely scenario. Make it easy for machines by removing authentication, unnecessary redirects, JavaScript-based retrieval or POST-style retrieval.
• Document long column names - Shapefile attributes are limited to 10 characters. This makes many attributes difficult to decipher without associated metadata. For example, here are a few attributes from a Garbage Collection dataset. Include a file with the long column name mappings and include both the long and short name in the metada

Auto-deploying built products to gh-pages with GitHub Actions

This is a set up for projects which want to check in only their source files, but have their gh-pages branch automatically updated with some compiled output every time they push.

A file below this one contains the steps for doing this with Travis CI. However, these days I recommend GitHub Actions, for the following reasons:

• It is much easier and requires less steps, because you are already authenticated with GitHub, so you don't need to share secret keys across services like you do when coordinate Travis CI and GitHub.
• It is free, with no quotas.
• Anecdotally, builds are much faster with GitHub Actions than with Travis CI, especially in terms of time spent waiting for a builder.

Project Ideas for Hackers

Goals

This resource is meant to serve to different types of people:

• Someone with a lot of ideas and not enough time.
• Someone motivated to create but unsure of what they want to build or the right direction to get started.

Many of us have lots of ideas for software we would really like to exist. But don't always have the time to build them ourselves. We all also have times where we want to create

koop install terminal 6/29/2014

failed to npm install because i had somehow laid down a 'pre' version of node

with Andrew Wang 7/15/2014
overcame an error starting up the node server by calling npm update on koop's dependencies

with Mike Juniper 7/16/2014
pointed out that my koop adaptors weren't installed properly
afterward, i could run the gist and github previews once, but thats it

#Git Interactive Rebase

Scenario: We have a topic branch we've been working on. We want to combine the last few commits into one single commit. Our intention is to merge this topic branch, with one clean commit, into our main dev branch.

Solution: Git Rebase Interactive

Checkout your topic branch and look at your commit history:

$ git checkout topic-branch

# To Setup:
# 1) Save the .git-completion.bash file found here:
#    https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash

# Git branch bash completion
if [ -f ~/.git-completion.bash ]; then
  . ~/.git-completion.bash
