I wrote a small .NET Core open source console app to listen to Docker container events and pipe them out to various destinations. The main reason I created this was because I hadn’t found something that did this and allowed various destinations. Also I wanted to develop something in .NET Core.
Slack is only included for now. Would love some feedback. Pull requests are welcome!
I’ve been using Docker for a while now. The idea of running everything the same anywhere is like a dream come true and not having to worry about updating a package dependency on the server and breaking everything. For example the same server running multiple Python applications which require different versions. Ever since I moved from Digital Ocean to Scaleway I have begun to use Docker for almost everything I run on my Scaleway servers.
This weekend I decided to try setting up a simple Web API with .NET Core and Docker running it on Linux. The process was really straightforward. I got it up and running almost immediately. So I decided to share the process.
When you screw up something in Git (bad merge/rebase, hard reset, etc.), you sometimes would like to go back before you screwed up, but you don’t know how. It’s very easy with the git reflog command!
I’ve decided to move my server from DigitalOcean to Scaleway. The reason for this is mainly because of the pricing. Even though DigitalOcean is not expensive, Scaleway is much cheaper and I’m getting more in return.
I have finally set this domain up on a secure connection (HTTPS). I used Let’s Encrypt service where you can get free SSL/TLS certificates. I followed this guide and it literally took 5 minutes along with setting up the cron job for auto renewal of certificates. I also set up my other domain fossari.is so now they’re both on HTTPS.
I have been using Angular for over 3 years. A few months ago Angular 1.5 came out and they introduced the .component() method, which is basically the same as an element directive but with a much simpler API. Since then I’ve fallen more and more in love with Angular so I decided to write a small todo app utilizing the component architecture along with some cool things in the Angular world.
First of all I’m not much of a designer so I want to thank TodoMVC for the UI.
Anyway, the app consists of:
I’m not gonna talk much about these in depth, only high-level about what they are and why I chose them. This article will mainly be about how I decided to structure and implement the app.
I recently started using Atom, this awesome web-based editor from GitHub. My previous editor was Sublime Text but I decided to make the move. Why? Because Sublime has a slow development.
Version 2 of Sublime Text was initially released in 2011 and last release was in July 2013. Still it’s the main version! Version 3 last release was in March 2015 — and it’s still in beta and hasn’t gotten an update for 10 months. Don’t get me wrong, Sublime is awesome, but it’s not under active development. Atom is very active and has been from the start, Sublime is not. Atom is also open-source, Sublime is not.
However, this is about my Atom setup, not a rant about why Atom is better than Sublime.
Have you ever been busy working on a branch but needed to push something to another branch without disrupting work on your current branch? Enter the worktree feature! It was introduced in Git 2.5 and is very handy when working on multiple branches simultaneously, without disrupting your work on the other branch. It got me very confused at first but it’s quite simple.
