Include CSS and Javascript in my django template

Read this https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/:

For local development, if you are using runserver or adding staticfiles_urlpatterns to your URLconf, you’re done with the setup – your static files will automatically be served at the default (for newly created projects) STATIC_URL of /static/.

And try:

~/tmp$ django-admin.py startproject myprj
~/tmp$ cd myprj/
~/tmp/myprj$ chmod a+x manage.py
~/tmp/myprj$ ./manage.py startapp myapp

Then add 'myapp' to INSTALLED_APPS (myprj/settings.py).

~/tmp/myprj$ cd myapp/
~/tmp/myprj/myapp$ mkdir static
~/tmp/myprj/myapp$ echo 'alert("hello!");' > static/hello.js
~/tmp/myprj/myapp$ mkdir templates
~/tmp/myprj/myapp$ echo '<script src="{{ STATIC_URL }}hello.js"></script>' > templates/hello.html

Edit myprj/urls.py:

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from django.views.generic import TemplateView

class HelloView(TemplateView):
    template_name = "hello.html"

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^$', HelloView.as_view(), name='hello'),
)

And run it:

~/tmp/myprj/myapp$ cd ..
~/tmp/myprj$ ./manage.py runserver

It works!

SET NAMES utf8 in MySQL?

Thanks @all!

don't use: query("SET NAMES utf8"); this is setup stuff and not a query. put it right afte a connection start with setCharset() (or similar method)

some little thing in parctice:

status:

mysql server by default talks latin1
your hole app is in utf8
connection is made without any extra (so: latin1) (no SET NAMES utf8 ..., no set_charset() method/function)

Store and read data is no problem as long mysql can handle the characters. if you look in the db you will already see there is crap in it (e.g.using phpmyadmin).

until now this is not a problem! (wrong but works often (in europe)) ..

..unless another client/programm or a changed library, which works correct, will read/save data. then you are in big trouble!

How to add elements of a string array to a string array list?

Arrays.asList() method simply returns List type

char [] arr = { 'c','a','t'};    
ArrayList<Character> chars = new ArrayList<Character>();

To add the array into the list, first convert it to list and then call addAll

List arrList = Arrays.asList(arr);
chars.addAll(arrList);

The following line will cause compiler error

chars.addAll(Arrays.asList(arr));

How do I split a string with multiple separators in JavaScript?

Not the best way but works to Split with Multiple and Different seperators/delimiters

html

<button onclick="myFunction()">Split with Multiple and Different seperators/delimiters</button>
<p id="demo"></p>

javascript

<script>
function myFunction() {

var str = "How : are | you doing : today?";
var res = str.split(' | ');

var str2 = '';
var i;
for (i = 0; i < res.length; i++) { 
    str2 += res[i];

    if (i != res.length-1) {
      str2 += ",";
    }
}
var res2 = str2.split(' : ');

//you can add countless options (with or without space)

document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = res2;
</script>

is of a type that is invalid for use as a key column in an index

A unique constraint can't be over 8000 bytes per row and will only use the first 900 bytes even then so the safest maximum size for your keys would be:

create table [misc_info]
( 
    [id] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY NOT NULL, 
    [key] nvarchar(450) UNIQUE NOT NULL, 
    [value] nvarchar(max) NOT NULL
)

i.e. the key can't be over 450 characters. If you can switch to varchar instead of nvarchar (e.g. if you don't need to store characters from more than one codepage) then that could increase to 900 characters.

git commit error: pathspec 'commit' did not match any file(s) known to git

The command line arguments are separated by space. If you want provide an argument with a space in it, you should quote it. So use git commit -m "initial commit".

How can I call controller/view helper methods from the console in Ruby on Rails?

If you need to test from the console (tested on Ruby on Rails 3.1 and 4.1):

Call Controller Actions:

app.get '/'
   app.response
   app.response.headers  # => { "Content-Type"=>"text/html", ... }
   app.response.body     # => "<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n\n<head>\n..."

ApplicationController methods:

foo = ActionController::Base::ApplicationController.new
foo.public_methods(true||false).sort
foo.some_method

Route Helpers:

app.myresource_path     # => "/myresource"
app.myresource_url      # => "http://www.example.com/myresource"

View Helpers:

foo = ActionView::Base.new

foo.javascript_include_tag 'myscript' #=> "<script src=\"/javascripts/myscript.js\"></script>"

helper.link_to "foo", "bar" #=> "<a href=\"bar\">foo</a>"

ActionController::Base.helpers.image_tag('logo.png')  #=> "<img alt=\"Logo\" src=\"/images/logo.png\" />"

Render:

views = Rails::Application::Configuration.new(Rails.root).paths["app/views"]
views_helper = ActionView::Base.new views
views_helper.render 'myview/mytemplate'
views_helper.render file: 'myview/_mypartial', locals: {my_var: "display:block;"}
views_helper.assets_prefix  #=> '/assets'

ActiveSupport methods:

require 'active_support/all'
1.week.ago
=> 2013-08-31 10:07:26 -0300
a = {'a'=>123}
a.symbolize_keys
=> {:a=>123}

Lib modules:

> require 'my_utils'
 => true
> include MyUtils
 => Object
> MyUtils.say "hi"
evaluate: hi
 => true

Resolve promises one after another (i.e. in sequence)?

This is to extend on how to process a sequence of promises in a more generic way, supporting dynamic / infinite sequences, based on spex.sequence implementation:

var $q = require("q");
var spex = require('spex')($q);

var files = []; // any dynamic source of files;

var readFile = function (file) {
    // returns a promise;
};

function source(index) {
    if (index < files.length) {
        return readFile(files[index]);
    }
}

function dest(index, data) {
    // data = resolved data from readFile;
}

spex.sequence(source, dest)
    .then(function (data) {
        // finished the sequence;
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
        // error;
    });

Not only this solution will work with sequences of any size, but you can easily add data throttling and load balancing to it.

Filter Linq EXCEPT on properties

Construct a List<AppMeta> from the excluded List and use the Except Linq operator.

var ex = excludedAppIds.Select(x => new AppMeta{Id = x}).ToList();                           
var result = ex.Except(unfilteredApps).ToList();

Bootstrap 3 Horizontal and Vertical Divider

You can achieve this by adding border class of bootstrap

like for border left ,you can use border-left

working code

<div class="row">

Force drop mysql bypassing foreign key constraint

Drop database exist in all versions of MySQL. But if you want to keep the table structure, here is an idea

mysqldump --no-data --add-drop-database --add-drop-table -hHOSTNAME -uUSERNAME -p > dump.sql

This is a program, not a mysql command

Then, log into mysql and

source dump.sql;

JavaScript property access: dot notation vs. brackets?

You have to use square bracket notation when -

The property name is number.

var ob = {
  1: 'One',
  7 : 'Seven'
}
ob.7  // SyntaxError
ob[7] // "Seven"

The property name has special character.

var ob = {
  'This is one': 1,
  'This is seven': 7,
}  
ob.'This is one'  // SyntaxError
ob['This is one'] // 1

The property name is assigned to a variable and you want to access the property value by this variable.

var ob = {
  'One': 1,
  'Seven': 7,
}

var _Seven = 'Seven';
ob._Seven  // undefined
ob[_Seven] // 7

How to remove numbers from string using Regex.Replace?

As a string extension:

    public static string RemoveIntegers(this string input)
    {
        return Regex.Replace(input, @"[\d-]", string.Empty);
    }

Usage:

"My text 1232".RemoveIntegers(); // RETURNS "My text "

How does Access-Control-Allow-Origin header work?

Whenever I start thinking about CORS, my intuition about which site hosts the headers is incorrect, just as you described in your question. For me, it helps to think about the purpose of the same origin policy.

The purpose of the same origin policy is to protect you from malicious JavaScript on siteA.com accessing private information you've chosen to share only with siteB.com. Without the same origin policy, JavaScript written by the authors of siteA.com could make your browser make requests to siteB.com, using your authentication cookies for siteB.com. In this way, siteA.com could steal the secret information you share with siteB.com.

Sometimes you need to work cross domain, which is where CORS comes in. CORS relaxes the same origin policy for domainB.com, using the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header to list other domains (domainA.com) that are trusted to run JavaScript that can interact with domainA.com.

To understand which domain should serve the CORS headers, consider this. You visit malicious.com, which contains some JavaScript that tries to make a cross domain request to mybank.com. It should be up to mybank.com, not malicious.com, to decide whether or not it sets CORS headers that relax the same origin policy allowing the JavaScript from malicious.com to interact with it. If malicous.com could set its own CORS headers allowing its own JavaScript access to mybank.com, this would completely nullify the same origin policy.

I think the reason for my bad intuition is the point of view I have when developing a site. It's my site, with all my JavaScript, therefore it isn't doing anything malicious and it should be up to me to specify which other sites my JavaScript can interact with. When in fact I should be thinking which other sites JavaScript are trying to interact with my site and should I use CORS to allow them?

Java out.println() how is this possible?

Well, you would typically use

System.out.println("print something");

which doesn't require any imports. However, since out is a static field inside of System, you could write use a static import like this:

import static java.lang.System.*;

class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        out.println("print something");
    }
}

Take a look at this link. Typically you would only do this if you are using a lot of static methods from a particular class, like I use it all the time for junit asserts, and easymock.

How to run .jar file by double click on Windows 7 64-bit?

This is my way:

Create file bat (example openJar.bat).

@echo off
start javaw -jar "%1" %*
exit

Cut it and paste to C:\Program Files\Java\\bin (this step is unnecessary, but you should it).
Right click jar file > Properties > Choose open with (Change button ) and select your file bat.
Double click your jar file to test it.

How to show another window from mainwindow in QT

Implement a slot in your QMainWindow where you will open your new Window,
Place a widget on your QMainWindow,
Connect a signal from this widget to a slot from the QMainWindow (for example: if the widget is a QPushButton connect the signal click() to the QMainWindow custom slot you have created).

Code example:

MainWindow.h

// ...
include "newwindow.h"
// ...
public slots:
   void openNewWindow();
// ...
private:
   NewWindow *mMyNewWindow;
// ...
}

MainWindow.cpp

// ...
   MainWindow::MainWindow()
   {
      // ...
      connect(mMyButton, SIGNAL(click()), this, SLOT(openNewWindow()));
      // ...
   }
// ...
void MainWindow::openNewWindow()
{
   mMyNewWindow = new NewWindow(); // Be sure to destroy your window somewhere
   mMyNewWindow->show();
   // ...
}

This is an example on how display a custom new window. There are a lot of ways to do this.

Get table column names in MySQL?

I made a PDO function which returns all the column names in an simple array.

public function getColumnNames($table){
    $sql = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE table_name = :table";
    try {
        $core = Core::getInstance();
        $stmt = $core->dbh->prepare($sql);
        $stmt->bindValue(':table', $table, PDO::PARAM_STR);
        $stmt->execute();
        $output = array();
        while($row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
            $output[] = $row['COLUMN_NAME'];                
        }
        return $output; 
    }

    catch(PDOException $pe) {
        trigger_error('Could not connect to MySQL database. ' . $pe->getMessage() , E_USER_ERROR);
    }
}

The output will be an array:

Array (
[0] => id
[1] => name
[2] => email
[3] => shoe_size
[4] => likes
... )

Sorry for the necro but I like my function ;)

P.S. I have not included the class Core but you can use your own class.. D.S.

NoSql vs Relational database

The biggest advantage of NoSQL over RDBMS is Scalability.
NoSQL databases can easily scale-out to many nodes, but for RDBMS it is very hard.
Scalability not only gives you more storage space but also much higher performance since many hosts work at the same time.

CS0234: Mvc does not exist in the System.Web namespace

None of previous answers worked for me.

I noticed that my project was referencing another project using the System.Web.Mvc reference from the .NET Framework.

I just deleted that assembly and added the "Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc" NuGet package and that fixed my problem.

Way to get number of digits in an int?

Enter the number and create an Arraylist, and the while loop will record all the digits into the Arraylist. Then we can take out the size of array, which will be the length of the integer value you entered.

ArrayList<Integer> a=new ArrayList<>();

while(number > 0) 
{ 
    remainder = num % 10; 
    a.add(remainder);
    number = number / 10; 
} 

int m=a.size();

Convert binary to ASCII and vice versa

I'm not sure how you think you can do it other than character-by-character -- it's inherently a character-by-character operation. There is certainly code out there to do this for you, but there is no "simpler" way than doing it character-by-character.

First, you need to strip the 0b prefix, and left-zero-pad the string so it's length is divisible by 8, to make dividing the bitstring up into characters easy:

bitstring = bitstring[2:]
bitstring = -len(bitstring) % 8 * '0' + bitstring

Then you divide the string up into blocks of eight binary digits, convert them to ASCII characters, and join them back into a string:

string_blocks = (bitstring[i:i+8] for i in range(0, len(bitstring), 8))
string = ''.join(chr(int(char, 2)) for char in string_blocks)

If you actually want to treat it as a number, you still have to account for the fact that the leftmost character will be at most seven digits long if you want to go left-to-right instead of right-to-left.

String length in bytes in JavaScript

Here is an independent and efficient method to count UTF-8 bytes of a string.

_x000D_

//count UTF-8 bytes of a string_x000D_
function byteLengthOf(s){_x000D_
 //assuming the String is UCS-2(aka UTF-16) encoded_x000D_
 var n=0;_x000D_
 for(var i=0,l=s.length; i<l; i++){_x000D_
  var hi=s.charCodeAt(i);_x000D_
  if(hi<0x0080){ //[0x0000, 0x007F]_x000D_
   n+=1;_x000D_
  }else if(hi<0x0800){ //[0x0080, 0x07FF]_x000D_
   n+=2;_x000D_
  }else if(hi<0xD800){ //[0x0800, 0xD7FF]_x000D_
   n+=3;_x000D_
  }else if(hi<0xDC00){ //[0xD800, 0xDBFF]_x000D_
   var lo=s.charCodeAt(++i);_x000D_
   if(i<l&&lo>=0xDC00&&lo<=0xDFFF){ //followed by [0xDC00, 0xDFFF]_x000D_
    n+=4;_x000D_
   }else{_x000D_
    throw new Error("UCS-2 String malformed");_x000D_
   }_x000D_
  }else if(hi<0xE000){ //[0xDC00, 0xDFFF]_x000D_
   throw new Error("UCS-2 String malformed");_x000D_
  }else{ //[0xE000, 0xFFFF]_x000D_
   n+=3;_x000D_
  }_x000D_
 }_x000D_
 return n;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
var s="\u0000\u007F\u07FF\uD7FF\uDBFF\uDFFF\uFFFF";_x000D_
console.log("expect byteLengthOf(s) to be 14, actually it is %s.",byteLengthOf(s));

_x000D_

Note that the method may throw error if an input string is UCS-2 malformed

What is the instanceof operator in JavaScript?

There's an important facet to instanceof that does not seem to be covered in any of the comments thus far: inheritance. A variable being evaluated by use of instanceof could return true for multiple "types" due to prototypal inheritance.

For example, let's define a type and a subtype:

function Foo(){ //a Foo constructor
    //assign some props
    return this;
}

function SubFoo(){ //a SubFoo constructor
    Foo.call( this ); //inherit static props
    //assign some new props
    return this;
}

SubFoo.prototype = Object.create(Foo.prototype); // Inherit prototype
SubFoo.prototype.constructor = SubFoo;

Now that we have a couple of "classes" lets make some instances, and find out what they're instances of:

var 
    foo = new Foo()
,   subfoo = new SubFoo()
;

alert( 
    "Q: Is foo an instance of Foo? "
+   "A: " + ( foo instanceof Foo ) 
); // -> true

alert( 
    "Q: Is foo an instance of SubFoo? " 
+   "A: " + ( foo instanceof SubFoo ) 
); // -> false

alert( 
    "Q: Is subfoo an instance of Foo? "
+   "A: " + ( subfoo instanceof Foo ) 
); // -> true

alert( 
    "Q: Is subfoo an instance of SubFoo? "
+   "A: " + ( subfoo instanceof SubFoo ) 
); // -> true

alert( 
    "Q: Is subfoo an instance of Object? "
+   "A: " + ( subfoo instanceof Object ) 
); // -> true

See that last line? All "new" calls to a function return an object that inherits from Object. This holds true even when using object creation shorthand:

alert( 
    "Q: Is {} an instance of Object? "
+   "A: " + ( {} instanceof Object ) 
); // -> true

And what about the "class" definitions themselves? What are they instances of?

alert( 
    "Q: Is Foo an instance of Object? "
+   "A:" + ( Foo instanceof Object) 
); // -> true

alert( 
    "Q: Is Foo an instance of Function? "
+   "A:" + ( Foo instanceof Function) 
); // -> true

I feel that understanding that any object can be an instance of MULTIPLE types is important, since you my (incorrectly) assume that you could differentiate between, say and object and a function by use of instanceof. As this last example clearly shows a function is an object.

This is also important if you are using any inheritance patterns and want to confirm the progeny of an object by methods other than duck-typing.

Hope that helps anyone exploring instanceof.

HTML: How to make a submit button with text + image in it?

You can do this:

HTML code:

    <form action="submit.php" method="get" id="form">        
    <a href="javascript: submitForm()">        
    <img src="save.gif" alt="Save icon"/>        
    <br/>        
    save        
    </a>        
    </form>

note: you can use and action and method of your choice and Id and any text starting from href="javascript: and ending to ()" but make sure that when I type the same things such as id and some text you type in your replacement in the same places(java script and HTML code).

java script code:

    var form=document.getElementById("form");        
    function submitForm()        
    {        
    form.submit();       
    }

Is there a php echo/print equivalent in javascript

You can use document.write or even console.write (this is good for debugging).

But your best bet and it gives you more control is to use DOM to update the page.

Git: Recover deleted (remote) branch

If your organization uses JIRA or another similar system that is tied into git, you can find the commits listed on the ticket itself and click the links to the code changes. Github deletes the branch but still has the commits available for cherry-picking.

How to set environment variable for everyone under my linux system?

As well as /etc/profile which others have mentioned, some Linux systems now use a directory /etc/profile.d/; any .sh files in there will be sourced by /etc/profile. It's slightly neater to keep your custom environment stuff in these files than to just edit /etc/profile.

    GetColLetter = Split(Cells(1, colID).Address, "$")(1)
End Function

Go install fails with error: no install location for directory xxx outside GOPATH

Careful when running

export GOPATH=$HOME

Go assume that your code exists in specific places related to GOPATH. So, instead, you can use docker to run any go command:

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/go/src/github.com/<organization name>/<repository name> golang

And now you can use any golang command, for example:

go test github.com/<organization name>/<repository name>

Passing environment-dependent variables in webpack

To add to the bunch of answers:

Use ExtendedDefinePlugin instead of DefinePlugin

npm install extended-define-webpack-plugin --save-dev.

ExtendedDefinePlugin is much simpler to use and is documented :-) link

Because DefinePlugin lacks good documentation, I want to help out, by saying that it actually works like #DEFINE in c#.

#if (DEBUG)
        Console.WriteLine("Debugging is enabled.");
#endif

Thus, if you want to understand how DefinePlugin works, read the c# #define doucmentation. link

How to detect if JavaScript is disabled?

I assume that you're trying to decide whether or not to deliver JavaScript-enhanced content. The best implementations degrade cleanly, so that the site still operates without JavaScript. I also assume that you mean server-side detection, rather than using the <noscript> element for an unexplained reason.

There is not a good way to perform server-side JavaScript detection. As an alternative it is possible to set a cookie using JavaScript, and then test for that cookie using server-side scripting upon subsequent page views. However this would not be suitable for deciding what content to deliver as it would not be able to distinguish visitors without the cookie from new visitors or visitors who are blocking cookies.

Create a string of variable length, filled with a repeated character

The best way to do this (that I've seen) is

var str = new Array(len + 1).join( character );

That creates an array with the given length, and then joins it with the given string to repeat. The .join() function honors the array length regardless of whether the elements have values assigned, and undefined values are rendered as empty strings.

You have to add 1 to the desired length because the separator string goes between the array elements.

Get device token for push notification

In order to get the device token use following code but you can get the device token only using physical device. If you have mandatory to send the device token then while using simulator you can put the below condition.

  if(!(TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR))
    {
        [infoDict setValue:[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] valueForKey:@"DeviceToken"] forKey:@"device_id"];
    }
    else
    {
        [infoDict setValue:@"e79c2b66222a956ce04625b22e3cad3a63e91f34b1a21213a458fadb2b459385" forKey:@"device_id"];
    }



- (void)application:(UIApplication*)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData*)deviceToken
{
    NSLog(@"My token is: %@", deviceToken);
    NSString * deviceTokenString = [[[[deviceToken description] stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString: @"<" withString: @""] stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString: @">" withString: @""]   stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString: @" " withString: @""];

Calculating text width

Expanding on @philfreo's answer:

I've added the ability to check for text-transform, as things like text-transform: uppercase usually tend to make the text wider.

$.fn.textWidth = function (text, font, transform) {
    if (!$.fn.textWidth.fakeEl) $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl = $('<span>').hide().appendTo(document.body);
    $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl.text(text || this.val() || this.text())
        .css('font', font || this.css('font'))
        .css('text-transform', transform || this.css('text-transform'));
    return $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl.width();
};

library not found for -lPods

I ran into an issue where I had created my own .xcworkspace which kept pods form createing it's own (where is where it attaches it's library).

solution

I moved the .xcworkspace I had created, ran pod install again and then manually merged my .xcworkspace with the one pods created by openeing both workspaces and dragging files from one workspace to the other.

Why doesn't indexOf work on an array IE8?

Versions of IE before IE9 don't have an .indexOf() function for Array, to define the exact spec version, run this before trying to use it:

if (!Array.prototype.indexOf)
{
  Array.prototype.indexOf = function(elt /*, from*/)
  {
    var len = this.length >>> 0;

    var from = Number(arguments[1]) || 0;
    from = (from < 0)
         ? Math.ceil(from)
         : Math.floor(from);
    if (from < 0)
      from += len;

    for (; from < len; from++)
    {
      if (from in this &&
          this[from] === elt)
        return from;
    }
    return -1;
  };
}

This is the version from MDN, used in Firefox/SpiderMonkey. In other cases such as IE, it'll add .indexOf() in the case it's missing... basically IE8 or below at this point.

Using Mockito to stub and execute methods for testing

SHORT ANSWER

How to do in your case:

int argument = 5; // example with int but could be another type
Mockito.when(mockMyAgent.otherMethod(Mockito.anyInt()).thenReturn(requiredReturnArg(argument));

LONG ANSWER

Actually what you want to do is possible, at least in Java 8. Maybe you didn't get this answer by other people because I am using Java 8 that allows that and this question is before release of Java 8 (that allows to pass functions, not only values to other functions).

Let's simulate a call to a DataBase query. This query returns all the rows of HotelTable that have FreeRoms = X and StarNumber = Y. What I expect during testing, is that this query will give back a List of different hotel: every returned hotel has the same value X and Y, while the other values and I will decide them according to my needs. The following example is simple but of course you can make it more complex.

So I create a function that will give back different results but all of them have FreeRoms = X and StarNumber = Y.

static List<Hotel> simulateQueryOnHotels(int availableRoomNumber, int starNumber) {
    ArrayList<Hotel> HotelArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Rome, 1, 1));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Krakow, 7, 15));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Madrid, 1, 1));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Athens, 4, 1));

    return HotelArrayList;
}

Maybe Spy is better (please try), but I did this on a mocked class. Here how I do (notice the anyInt() values):

//somewhere at the beginning of your file with tests...
@Mock
private DatabaseManager mockedDatabaseManager;

//in the same file, somewhere in a test...
int availableRoomNumber = 3;
int starNumber = 4;
// in this way, the mocked queryOnHotels will return a different result according to the passed parameters
when(mockedDatabaseManager.queryOnHotels(anyInt(), anyInt())).thenReturn(simulateQueryOnHotels(availableRoomNumber, starNumber));

Change drawable color programmatically

I have wrote a generic function in which you can pass context, icon is id drawable/mipmap image icon and new color which you need for that icon.

This function returns a drawable.

public static Drawable changeDrawableColor(Context context,int icon, int newColor) {
    Drawable mDrawable = ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, icon).mutate(); 
    mDrawable.setColorFilter(new PorterDuffColorFilter(newColor, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN)); 
    return mDrawable;
} 

changeDrawableColor(getContext(),R.mipmap.ic_action_tune, Color.WHITE);

How to use split?

If it is the basic JavaScript split function, look at documentation, JavaScript split() Method.

Basically, you just do this:

var array = myString.split(' -- ')

Then your two values are stored in the array - you can get the values like this:

var firstValue = array[0];
var secondValue = array[1];

How to set up default schema name in JPA configuration?

I had to set the value in '' and ""

spring:
   jpa:
     properties:
       hibernate:
          default_schema: '"schema"'

How can I find all the subsets of a set, with exactly n elements?

Here's some pseudocode - you can cut same recursive calls by storing the values for each call as you go and before recursive call checking if the call value is already present.

The following algorithm will have all the subsets excluding the empty set.

list * subsets(string s, list * v) {

    if(s.length() == 1) {
        list.add(s);    
        return v;
    }
    else
    {
        list * temp = subsets(s[1 to length-1], v);
        int length = temp->size();

        for(int i=0;i<length;i++) {
            temp.add(s[0]+temp[i]);
        }

        list.add(s[0]);
        return temp;
    }
}

So, for example if s = "123" then output is:

How to check if two words are anagrams

Two words are anagrams of each other if they contain the same number of characters and the same characters. You should only need to sort the characters in lexicographic order, and determine if all the characters in one string are equal to and in the same order as all of the characters in the other string.

Here's a code example. Look into Arrays in the API to understand what's going on here.

public boolean isAnagram(String firstWord, String secondWord) {
     char[] word1 = firstWord.replaceAll("[\\s]", "").toCharArray();
     char[] word2 = secondWord.replaceAll("[\\s]", "").toCharArray();
     Arrays.sort(word1);
     Arrays.sort(word2);
     return Arrays.equals(word1, word2);
}

Creating a singleton in Python

How about this:

def singleton(cls):
    instance=cls()
    cls.__new__ = cls.__call__= lambda cls: instance
    cls.__init__ = lambda self: None
    return instance

Use it as a decorator on a class that should be a singleton. Like this:

@singleton
class MySingleton:
    #....

This is similar to the singleton = lambda c: c() decorator in another answer. Like the other solution, the only instance has name of the class (MySingleton). However, with this solution you can still "create" instances (actually get the only instance) from the class, by doing MySingleton(). It also prevents you from creating additional instances by doing type(MySingleton)() (that also returns the same instance).

    beforeShow: function(o, o2) {
    var ret = $j("#" + CSS.escape("${status.expression}")).prop("disabled")
        || $j("#" + CSS.escape("${status.expression}")).prop("readOnly");

    if (ret){
        return false;
    }

    return o2;
}
});

Converting a PDF to PNG

To convert pdf to image files use following commands:

For PNG gs -sDEVICE=png16m -dTextAlphaBits=4 -r300 -o a.png a.pdf

For JPG gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -dTextAlphaBits=4 -r300 -o a.jpg a.pdf

If you have multiple pages add to name %03d gs -o a%03d.jpg a.pdf

What each option means:

sDEVICE={jpeg,pngalpha,png16m...} - filetype
-o - output file (%stdout to stdout)
-dTextAlphaBits=4 - font antialiasing.
-r300 - 300 dpi

What's the difference between including files with JSP include directive, JSP include action and using JSP Tag Files?

Possible Duplicate Question

<@include> - The directive tag instructs the JSP compiler to merge contents of the included file into the JSP before creating the generated servlet code. It is the equivalent to cutting and pasting the text from your include page right into your JSP.

Only one servlet is executed at run time.
Scriptlet variables declared in the parent page can be accessed in the included page (remember, they are the same page).
The included page does not need to able to be compiled as a standalone JSP. It can be a code fragment or plain text. The included page will never be compiled as a standalone. The included page can also have any extension, though .jspf has become a conventionally used extension.
One drawback on older containers is that changes to the include pages may not take effect until the parent page is updated. Recent versions of Tomcat will check the include pages for updates and force a recompile of the parent if they're updated.
A further drawback is that since the code is inlined directly into the service method of the generated servlet, the method can grow very large. If it exceeds 64 KB, your JSP compilation will likely fail.

<jsp:include> - The JSP Action tag on the other hand instructs the container to pause the execution of this page, go run the included page, and merge the output from that page into the output from this page.

Each included page is executed as a separate servlet at run time.
Pages can conditionally be included at run time. This is often useful for templating frameworks that build pages out of includes. The parent page can determine which page, if any, to include according to some run-time condition.
The values of scriptlet variables need to be explicitly passed to the include page.
The included page must be able to be run on its own.
You are less likely to run into compilation errors due to the maximum method size being exceeded in the generated servlet class.

Depending on your needs, you may either use <@include> or <jsp:include>

HMAC-SHA256 Algorithm for signature calculation

Try this

Sorry for being late, I have tried all above answers but none of them is giving me correct value, After doing the lot of R&D I have found a simple way that gives me exact value.

Declare this method in your class

private String hmacSha(String KEY, String VALUE, String SHA_TYPE) {
try {
    SecretKeySpec signingKey = new SecretKeySpec(KEY.getBytes("UTF-8"), SHA_TYPE);
    Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(SHA_TYPE);
    mac.init(signingKey);
    byte[] rawHmac = mac.doFinal(VALUE.getBytes("UTF-8"));
    byte[] hexArray = {(byte)'0', (byte)'1', (byte)'2', (byte)'3', (byte)'4', (byte)'5', (byte)'6', (byte)'7', (byte)'8', (byte)'9', (byte)'a', (byte)'b', (byte)'c', (byte)'d', (byte)'e', (byte)'f'};
    byte[] hexChars = new byte[rawHmac.length * 2];
    for ( int j = 0; j < rawHmac.length; j++ ) {
        int v = rawHmac[j] & 0xFF;
        hexChars[j * 2] = hexArray[v >>> 4];
        hexChars[j * 2 + 1] = hexArray[v & 0x0F];
    }
    return new String(hexChars);
}
catch (Exception ex) {
    throw new RuntimeException(ex);
}

}

Use this like

Log.e("TAG", "onCreate: "+hmacSha("key","text","HmacSHA256"));

What is the difference between ManualResetEvent and AutoResetEvent in .NET?

Yes. It's like the difference between a tollbooth and a door. The ManualResetEvent is the door, which needs to be closed (reset) manually. The AutoResetEvent is a tollbooth, allowing one car to go by and automatically closing before the next one can get through.

How can I call PHP functions by JavaScript?

I created this library, may be of help to you. MyPHP client and server side library

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <title>Page Title</title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
</head>
<body>

    <!-- include MyPHP.js -->
    <script src="MyPHP.js"></script>

    <!-- use MyPHP class -->
    <script>
        const php = new MyPHP;
        php.auth = 'hashed-key';

        // call a php class
        const phpClass = php.fromClass('Authentication' or 'Moorexa\\Authentication', <pass aguments for constructor here>);

        // call a method in that class
        phpClass.method('login', <arguments>);

        // you can keep chaining here...

        // finally let's call this class
        php.call(phpClass).then((response)=>{
            // returns a promise.
        });

        // calling a function is quite simple also
        php.call('say_hello', <arguments>).then((response)=>{
            // returns a promise
        });

        // if your response has a script tag and you need to update your dom call just call
        php.html(response);

    </script>
</body>
</html>

Equivalent of LIMIT and OFFSET for SQL Server?

The equivalent of LIMIT is SET ROWCOUNT, but if you want generic pagination it's better to write a query like this:

;WITH Results_CTE AS
(
    SELECT
        Col1, Col2, ...,
        ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY SortCol1, SortCol2, ...) AS RowNum
    FROM Table
    WHERE <whatever>
)
SELECT *
FROM Results_CTE
WHERE RowNum >= @Offset
AND RowNum < @Offset + @Limit

The advantage here is the parameterization of the offset and limit in case you decide to change your paging options (or allow the user to do so).

Note: the @Offset parameter should use one-based indexing for this rather than the normal zero-based indexing.

Android M - check runtime permission - how to determine if the user checked "Never ask again"?

Please don't throw stones at me for this solution.

This works but is a bit "hacky".

When you call requestPermissions, register the current time.

        mAskedPermissionTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

Then in onRequestPermissionsResult

if the result is not granted, check the time again.

 if (System.currentTimeMillis() - mAskedPermissionTime < 100)

Since the user did cannot possibly click so fast on the deny button, we know that he selected "never ask again" because the callback is instant.

Use at your own risks.

How to check if a registry value exists using C#?

For Registry Key you can check if it is null after getting it. It will be, if it doesn't exist.

For Registry Value you can get names of Values for the current key and check if this array contains the needed Value name.

Example:

public static bool checkMachineType()
{    
    RegistryKey winLogonKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"System\CurrentControlSet\services\pcmcia", true);
    return (winLogonKey.GetValueNames().Contains("Start"));

How to style a select tag's option element?

It's a choice (from browser devs or W3C, I can't find any W3C specification about styling select options though) not allowing to style select options.

I suspect this would be to keep consistency with native choice lists.
(think about mobile devices for example).

3 solutions come to my mind:

Use Select2 which actually converts your selects into uls (allowing many things)
Split your selects into multiple in order to group values
Split into optgroup

how to log in to mysql and query the database from linux terminal

I had the same exact issue on my ArchLinux VPS today.

mysql -u root -p just didn't work, whereas mysql -u root -pmypassword did.

It turned out I had a broken /dev/tty device file (most likely after a udev upgrade), so mysql couldn't use it for an interactive login.

I ended up removing /dev/tty and recreating it with mknod /dev/tty c 5 1 and chmod 666 /dev/tty. That solved the mysql problem and some other issues too.

javascript object max size limit

There is no such limit on the string length. To be certain, I just tested to create a string containing 60 megabyte.

The problem is likely that you are sending the data in a GET request, so it's sent in the URL. Different browsers have different limits for the URL, where IE has the lowest limist of about 2 kB. To be safe, you should never send more data than about a kilobyte in a GET request.

To send that much data, you have to send it in a POST request instead. The browser has no hard limit on the size of a post, but the server has a limit on how large a request can be. IIS for example has a default limit of 4 MB, but it's possible to adjust the limit if you would ever need to send more data than that.

Also, you shouldn't use += to concatenate long strings. For each iteration there is more and more data to move, so it gets slower and slower the more items you have. Put the strings in an array and concatenate all the items at once:

var items = $.map(keys, function(item, i) {
  var value = $("#value" + (i+1)).val().replace(/"/g, "\\\"");
  return
    '{"Key":' + '"' + Encoder.htmlEncode($(this).html()) + '"' + ",'+
    '" + '"Value"' + ':' + '"' + Encoder.htmlEncode(value) + '"}';
});
var jsonObj =
  '{"code":"' + code + '",'+
  '"defaultfile":"' + defaultfile + '",'+
  '"filename":"' + currentFile + '",'+
  '"lstResDef":[' + items.join(',') + ']}';

How to reset Android Studio

We can no longer reset android studio to it's default state by the answers/methods given in this question from android studio 3.2.0 Here is the updated new method to do it (It consumes less time as it does not require any update/installation).

For Windows/Mac

Open my computer
Go to C:\Users\Username\.android\build-cache
Delete the cache/files found inside the folder build-cache
Note: do not delete the folder named as "3.2.0" and "3.2.1" which will be inside the build-cache
Restart Android studio.

and that would completely reset your android studio settings from Android studio 3.2.0 and up.

Excel to JSON javascript code?

@Kwang-Chun Kang Thanks Kang a lot! I found the solution is working and very helpful, it really save my day. For me I am trying to create a React.js component that convert *.xlsx to json object when user upload the excel file to a html input tag. First I need to install XLSX package with:

npm install xlsx --save

Then in my component code, import with:

import XLSX from 'xlsx'

The component UI should look like this:

<input
  accept=".xlsx"
  type="file"
  onChange={this.fileReader}
/>

It calls a function fileReader(), which is exactly same as the solution provided. To learn more about fileReader API, I found this blog to be helpful: https://blog.teamtreehouse.com/reading-files-using-the-html5-filereader-api

Can I use a case/switch statement with two variables?

Yes you can also do:

    switch (true) {

     case (var1 === true && var2 === true) :
       //do something
       break;
     case (var1 === false && var2 === false) :
       //do something
       break;

      default:

    }

This will always execute the switch, pretty much just like if/else but looks cleaner. Just continue checking your variables in the case expressions.

What is the difference between .yaml and .yml extension?

As @David Heffeman indicates the recommendation is to use .yaml when possible, and the recommendation has been that way since September 2006.

That some projects use .yml is mostly because of ignorance of the implementers/documenters: they wanted to use YAML because of readability, or some other feature not available in other formats, were not familiar with the recommendation and and just implemented what worked, maybe after looking at some other project/library (without questioning whether what was done is correct).

The best way to approach this is to be rigorous when creating new files (i.e. use .yaml) and be permissive when accepting input (i.e. allow .yml when you encounter it), possible automatically upgrading/correcting these errors when possible.

The other recommendation I have is to document the argument(s) why you have to use .yml, when you think you have to. That way you don't look like an ignoramus, and give others the opportunity to understand your reasoning. Of course "everybody else is doing it" and "On Google .yml has more pages than .yaml" are not arguments, they are just statistics about the popularity of project(s) that have it wrong or right (with regards to the extension of YAML files). You can try to prove that some projects are popular, just because they use a .yml extension instead of the correct .yaml, but I think you will be hard pressed to do so.

Some projects realize (too late) that they use the incorrect extension (e.g. originally docker-compose used .yml, but in later versions started to use .yaml, although they still support .yml). Others still seem ignorant about the correct extension, like AppVeyor early 2019, but allow you to specify the configuration file for a project, including extension. This allows you to get the configuration file out of your face as well as giving it the proper extension: I use .appveyor.yaml instead of appveyor.yml for building the windows wheels of my YAML parser for Python).

On the other hand:

The Yaml (sic!) component of Symfony2 implements a selected subset of features defined in the YAML 1.2 version specification.

So it seems fitting that they also use a subset of the recommended extension.

Try/catch does not seem to have an effect

I was able to duplicate your result when trying to run a remote WMI query. The exception thrown is not caught by the Try/Catch, nor will a Trap catch it, since it is not a "terminating error". In PowerShell, there are terminating errors and non-terminating errors . It appears that Try/Catch/Finally and Trap only works with terminating errors.

It is logged to the $error automatic variable and you can test for these type of non-terminating errors by looking at the $? automatic variable, which will let you know if the last operation succeeded ($true) or failed ($false).

From the appearance of the error generated, it appears that the error is returned and not wrapped in a catchable exception. Below is a trace of the error generated.

How to calculate number of days between two given dates?

It also can be easily done with arrow:

import arrow

a = arrow.get('2017-05-09')
b = arrow.get('2017-05-11')

delta = (b-a)
print delta.days

Python how to write to a binary file?

You can use the following code example using Python 3 syntax:

from struct import pack
with open("foo.bin", "wb") as file:
  file.write(pack("<IIIII", *bytearray([120, 3, 255, 0, 100])))

Here is shell one-liner:

python -c $'from struct import pack\nwith open("foo.bin", "wb") as file: file.write(pack("<IIIII", *bytearray([120, 3, 255, 0, 100])))'

Create space at the beginning of a UITextField

Simple swift 3 solution - add code to viewDidLoad:

let indentView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 10, height: 20))
textField.leftView = indentView
textField.leftViewMode = .always

No need for ridiculously long code

How to check command line parameter in ".bat" file?

You need to check for the parameter being blank: if "%~1"=="" goto blank

Once you've done that, then do an if/else switch on -b: if "%~1"=="-b" (goto specific) else goto unknown

Surrounding the parameters with quotes makes checking for things like blank/empty/missing parameters easier. "~" ensures double quotes are stripped if they were on the command line argument.

Best way to change font colour halfway through paragraph?

Send file via cURL from form POST in PHP

Here is some production code that sends the file to an ftp (may be a good solution for you):

// This is the entire file that was uploaded to a temp location.
$localFile = $_FILES[$fileKey]['tmp_name']; 

$fp = fopen($localFile, 'r');

// Connecting to website.
$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "[email protected]:password");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'ftp://@ftp.website.net/audio/' . $strFileName);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 86400); // 1 Day Timeout
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILE, $fp);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION, 'CURL_callback');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE, 128);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, filesize($localFile));
curl_exec ($ch);

if (curl_errno($ch)) {

    $msg = curl_error($ch);
}
else {

    $msg = 'File uploaded successfully.';
}

curl_close ($ch);

$return = array('msg' => $msg);

echo json_encode($return);

How do I find the location of my Python site-packages directory?

A solution that:

outside of virtualenv - provides the path of global site-packages,
insidue a virtualenv - provides the virtualenv's site-packages

...is this one-liner:

python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())"

Formatted for readability (rather than use as a one-liner), that looks like the following:

from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib
print(get_python_lib())

How to start nginx via different port(other than 80)

You have to go to the /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ and if this is the default configuration, then there should be a file by name: default.

Edit that file by defining your desired port; in the snippet below, we are serving the Nginx instance on port 81.

server {
    listen 81;
}

To start the server, run the command line below;

sudo service nginx start

You may now access your application on port 81 (for localhost, http://localhost:81).

Reading/Writing a MS Word file in PHP

I don't know about reading native Word documents in PHP, but if you want to write a Word document in PHP, WordprocessingML (aka WordML) might be a good solution. All you have to do is create an XML document in the correct format. I believe Word 2003 and 2007 both support WordML.

Live search through table rows

I took yckart's answer and:

spaced it out for readability
case insensitive search
there was a bug in the comparison that was fixed by adding .trim()

(If you put your scripts at the bottom of your page below the jQuery include you shouldn't need document ready)

jQuery:

 <script>
    $(".card-table-search").keyup(function() {
        var value = this.value.toLowerCase().trim();

        $(".card-table").find("tr").each(function(index) {
            var id = $(this).find("td").first().text().toLowerCase().trim();
            $(this).toggle(id.indexOf(value) !== -1);
        });
    });
 </script>

If you want to extend this have it iterate over each 'td' and do this comparison.

How to store array or multiple values in one column

Well, there is an array type in recent Postgres versions (not 100% about PG 7.4). You can even index them, using a GIN or GIST index. The syntaxes are:

create table foo (
  bar  int[] default '{}'
);

select * from foo where bar && array[1] -- equivalent to bar && '{1}'::int[]

create index on foo using gin (bar); -- allows to use an index in the above query

But as the prior answer suggests, it will be better to normalize properly.

How to stop flask application without using ctrl-c

If you are just running the server on your desktop, you can expose an endpoint to kill the server (read more at Shutdown The Simple Server):

from flask import request
def shutdown_server():
    func = request.environ.get('werkzeug.server.shutdown')
    if func is None:
        raise RuntimeError('Not running with the Werkzeug Server')
    func()
    
@app.route('/shutdown', methods=['GET'])
def shutdown():
    shutdown_server()
    return 'Server shutting down...'

Here is another approach that is more contained:

from multiprocessing import Process

server = Process(target=app.run)
server.start()
# ...
server.terminate()
server.join()

Let me know if this helps.

Efficient iteration with index in Scala

There's nothing in the stdlib that will do it for you without creating tuple garbage, but it's not too hard to write your own. Unfortunately I've never bothered to figure out how to do the proper CanBuildFrom implicit raindance to make such things generic in the type of collection they're applied to, but if it's possible, I'm sure someone will enlighten us. :)

def foreachWithIndex[A](as: Traversable[A])(f: (Int,A) => Unit) {
  var i = 0
  for (a <- as) {
    f(i, a)
    i += 1
  }
}

def mapWithIndex[A,B](in: List[A])(f: (Int,A) => B): List[B] = {
  def mapWithIndex0(in: List[A], gotSoFar: List[B], i: Int): List[B] = {
    in match {
      case Nil         => gotSoFar.reverse
      case one :: more => mapWithIndex0(more, f(i, one) :: gotSoFar, i+1)
    }
  }
  mapWithIndex0(in, Nil, 0)
}

// Tests....

@Test
def testForeachWithIndex() {
  var out = List[Int]()
  ScalaUtils.foreachWithIndex(List(1,2,3,4)) { (i, num) =>
    out :+= i * num
  }
  assertEquals(List(0,2,6,12),out)
}

@Test
def testMapWithIndex() {
  val out = ScalaUtils.mapWithIndex(List(4,3,2,1)) { (i, num) =>
    i * num
  }

  assertEquals(List(0,3,4,3),out)
}

How to make a section of an image a clickable link

If you don't want to make the button a separate image, you can use the <area> tag. This is done by using html similar to this:

<img src="imgsrc" width="imgwidth" height="imgheight" alt="alttext" usemap="#mapname">

<map name="mapname">
    <area shape="rect" coords="see note 1" href="link" alt="alttext">
</map>

Note 1: The coords=" " attribute must be formatted in this way: coords="x1,y1,x2,y2" where:

x1=top left X coordinate
y1=top left Y coordinate
x2=bottom right X coordinate
y2=bottom right Y coordinate

Note 2: The usemap="#mapname" attribute must include the #.

EDIT:

I looked at your code and added in the <map> and <area> tags where they should be. I also commented out some parts that were either overlapping the image or seemed there for no use.

<div class="flexslider">
    <ul class="slides" runat="server" id="Ul">                             
        <li class="flex-active-slide" style="background: url(&quot;images/slider-bg-1.jpg&quot;) no-repeat scroll 50% 0px transparent; width: 100%; float: left; margin-right: -100%; position: relative; display: list-item;">
            <div class="container">
                <div class="sixteen columns contain"></div>   
                <img runat="server" id="imgSlide1" style="top: 1px; right: -19px; opacity: 1;" class="item" src="./test.png" data-topimage="7%" height="358" width="728" usemap="#imgmap" />
                <map name="imgmap">
                    <area shape="rect" coords="48,341,294,275" href="http://www.example.com/">
                </map>
                <!--<a href="#" style="display:block; background:#00F; width:356px; height:66px; position:absolute; left:1px; top:-19px; left: 162px; top: 279px;"></a>-->
            </div>
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>
<!-- <ul class="flex-direction-nav">
    <li><a class="flex-prev" href="#"><i class="icon-angle-left"></i></a></li>
    <li><a class="flex-next" href="#"><i class="icon-angle-right"></i></a></li>
</ul> -->

Notes:

The coord="48,341,294,275" is in reference to your screenshot you posted.
The src="./test.png" is the location and name of the screenshot you posted on my computer.
The href="http://www.example.com/" is an example link.

Change/Get check state of CheckBox

Using onclick instead will work. In theory it may not catch changes made via the keyboard but all browsers do seem to fire the event anyway when checking via keyboard.

You also need to pass the checkbox into the function:

function checkAddress(checkbox)
{
    if (checkbox.checked)
    {
        alert("a");
    }
}

HTML

<input type="checkbox" name="checkAddress" onclick="checkAddress(this)" />

process.waitFor() never returns

Asynchronous reading of stream combined with avoiding Wait with a timeout will solve the problem.

Is a GUID unique 100% of the time?

GUID algorithms are usually implemented according to the v4 GUID specification, which is essentially a pseudo-random string. Sadly, these fall into the category of "likely non-unique", from Wikipedia (I don't know why so many people ignore this bit): "... other GUID versions have different uniqueness properties and probabilities, ranging from guaranteed uniqueness to likely non-uniqueness."

The pseudo-random properties of V8's JavaScript Math.random() are TERRIBLE at uniqueness, with collisions often coming after only a few thousand iterations, but V8 isn't the only culprit. I've seen real-world GUID collisions using both PHP and Ruby implementations of v4 GUIDs.

Because it's becoming more and more common to scale ID generation across multiple clients, and clusters of servers, entropy takes a big hit -- the chances of the same random seed being used to generate an ID escalate (time is often used as a random seed in pseudo-random generators), and GUID collisions escalate from "likely non-unique" to "very likely to cause lots of trouble".

To solve this problem, I set out to create an ID algorithm that could scale safely, and make better guarantees against collision. It does so by using the timestamp, an in-memory client counter, client fingerprint, and random characters. The combination of factors creates an additive complexity that is particularly resistant to collision, even if you scale it across a number of hosts:

How can I compare two lists in python and return matches

Using __and__ attribute method also works.

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> b = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
>>> set(a).__and__(set(b))
set([5])

or simply

>>> set([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]).__and__(set([9, 8, 7, 6, 5]))
set([5])
>>>

Angular 2 declaring an array of objects

I assume you're using typescript.

To be extra cautious you can define your type as an array of objects that need to match certain interface:

type MyArrayType = Array<{id: number, text: string}>;

const arr: MyArrayType = [
    {id: 1, text: 'Sentence 1'},
    {id: 2, text: 'Sentence 2'},
    {id: 3, text: 'Sentence 3'},
    {id: 4, text: 'Sentenc4 '},
];

Or short syntax without defining a custom type:

const arr: Array<{id: number, text: string}> = [...];

How do I return to an older version of our code in Subversion?

Most of the previous answers have been using a reverse merge, and that's usually the right answer. However, there's one situation (which just happened to me) where it's not.

I accidentally changed a file with Unix line endings to DOS line endings when making a small change, and committed it. This is easily undone, either by changing the line endings and committing again, or by a reverse merge, but it has the effect of making svn blame list my edit as the source of every line of the file. (Interestingly, TortoiseSVN on Windows doesn't get affected by this; only the command line svn blame.)

If you want to maintain the history as reported by svn blame, I think you need to do the following:

Delete the file and commit.
In the repository, copy the previous good copy of the file into the head, and commit.
Restore any edits that you do want to keep.

The deletion is a little scary, but remember you always have the file saved in the repository, so restoring it is not a big deal. Here's some code to illustrate the steps. Assume that xxx is the revision number of the last good copy.

svn rm svn+ssh://path/to/file
svn copy svn+ssh://path/to/file@xxx svn+ssh://path/to -m"Restore good copy"
svn update
<restore the edits>
svn commit -m"Restore edits"

Note that for a copy in the repository, the destination needs to be a directory, not a filename.

How to add an element to Array and shift indexes?

Have a look at commons. It uses arrayCopy(), but has nicer syntax. To those answering with the element-by-element code: if this isn't homework, that's trivial and the interesting answer is the one that promotes reuse. To those who propose lists: probably readers know about that too and performance issues should be mentioned.

Getting an attribute value in xml element

Below is the code to do it in vtd-xml. It basically queries the XML with the XPath of "/xml/item/@name."

import com.ximpleware.*;

public class getAttrs{

   public static void main(String[] s) throws VTDException{
         VTDGen vg = new VTDGen();
         if (!vg.parseFile("input.xml",false)) // turn off namespace
              return;
         VTDNav vn = vg.getNav();
         AutoPilot ap =  new AutoPilot(vn);
         ap.selectXPath("/xml/item/@name");
         int i=0;
         while( (i=ap.evalXPath())!=-1){
              System.out.println(" item name is ===>"+vn.toString(i+1)); 
         }
   }
}

How to set a header for a HTTP GET request, and trigger file download?

There are two ways to download a file where the HTTP request requires that a header be set.

The credit for the first goes to @guest271314, and credit for the second goes to @dandavis.

The first method is to use the HTML5 File API to create a temporary local file, and the second is to use base64 encoding in conjunction with a data URI.

The solution I used in my project uses the base64 encoding approach for small files, or when the File API is not available, otherwise using the the File API approach.

Solution:

        var id = 123;

        var req = ic.ajax.raw({
            type: 'GET',
            url: '/api/dowloads/'+id,
            beforeSend: function (request) {
                request.setRequestHeader('token', 'token for '+id);
            },
            processData: false
        });

        var maxSizeForBase64 = 1048576; //1024 * 1024

        req.then(
            function resolve(result) {
                var str = result.response;

                var anchor = $('.vcard-hyperlink');
                var windowUrl = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
                if (str.length > maxSizeForBase64 && typeof windowUrl.createObjectURL === 'function') {
                    var blob = new Blob([result.response], { type: 'text/bin' });
                    var url = windowUrl.createObjectURL(blob);
                    anchor.prop('href', url);
                    anchor.prop('download', id+'.bin');
                    anchor.get(0).click();
                    windowUrl.revokeObjectURL(url);
                }
                else {
                    //use base64 encoding when less than set limit or file API is not available
                    anchor.attr({
                        href: 'data:text/plain;base64,'+FormatUtils.utf8toBase64(result.response),
                        download: id+'.bin',
                    });
                    anchor.get(0).click();
                }

            }.bind(this),
            function reject(err) {
                console.log(err);
            }
        );

Note that I'm not using a raw XMLHttpRequest, and instead using ic-ajax, and should be quite similar to a jQuery.ajax solution.

Note also that you should substitute text/bin and .bin with whatever corresponds to the file type being downloaded.

The implementation of FormatUtils.utf8toBase64 can be found here

What is the best way to iterate over a dictionary?

How to create query parameters in Javascript?

A little modification to typescript:

  public encodeData(data: any): string {
    return Object.keys(data).map((key) => {
      return [key, data[key]].map(encodeURIComponent).join("=");
    }).join("&");
  }

Vertical Align Center in Bootstrap 4

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-6">
     <img src="/assets/images/ebook2.png" alt="" class="img-fluid">
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-6 my-auto">
     <h3>Heading</h3>
     <p>Some text.</p>
   </div>
</div>

This line is where the magic happens <div class="col-md-6 my-auto">, the my-auto will center the content of the column. This works great with situations like the code sample above where you might have a variable sized image and need to have the text in the column to the right line up with it.

Return multiple values from a function in swift

Swift 3

func getTime() -> (hour: Int, minute: Int,second: Int) {
        let hour = 1
        let minute = 20
        let second = 55
        return (hour, minute, second)
    }

To use :

let(hour, min,sec) = self.getTime()
print(hour,min,sec)

"for" vs "each" in Ruby

Never ever use for it may cause almost untraceable bugs.

Don't be fooled, this is not about idiomatic code or style issues. Ruby's implementation of for has a serious flaw and should not be used.

Here is an example where for introduces a bug,

class Library
  def initialize
    @ary = []
  end
  def method_with_block(&block)
    @ary << block
  end
  def method_that_uses_these_blocks
    @ary.map(&:call)
  end
end

lib = Library.new

for n in %w{foo bar quz}
  lib.method_with_block { n }
end

puts lib.method_that_uses_these_blocks

Prints

quz
quz
quz

Using %w{foo bar quz}.each { |n| ... } prints

foo
bar
quz

Why?

In a for loop the variable n is defined once and only and then that one definition is use for all iterations. Hence each blocks refer to the same n which has a value of quz by the time the loop ends. Bug!

In an each loop a fresh variable n is defined for each iteration, for example above the variable n is defined three separate times. Hence each block refer to a separate n with the correct values.

What are the performance characteristics of sqlite with very large database files?

Correct way to integrate jQuery plugins in AngularJS

Yes, you are correct. If you are using a jQuery plugin, do not put the code in the controller. Instead create a directive and put the code that you would normally have inside the link function of the directive.

There are a couple of points in the documentation that you could take a look at. You can find them here:
Common Pitfalls

Using controllers correctly

Ensure that when you are referencing the script in your view, you refer it last - after the angularjs library, controllers, services and filters are referenced.

EDIT: Rather than using $(element), you can make use of angular.element(element) when using AngularJS with jQuery

pandas how to check dtype for all columns in a dataframe?

To go one step further, I assume you want to do something with these dtypes. df.dtypes.to_dict() comes in handy.

my_type = 'float64' #<---

dtypes = dataframe.dtypes.to_dict()

for col_nam, typ in dtypes.items():
    if (typ != my_type): #<---
        raise ValueError(f"Yikes - `dataframe['{col_name}'].dtype == {typ}` not {my_type}")

You'll find that Pandas did a really good job comparing NumPy classes and user-provided strings. For example: even things like 'double' == dataframe['col_name'].dtype will succeed when .dtype==np.float64.

When do I have to use interfaces instead of abstract classes?

Many cases can be implemented in both class types.

Interfaces are usefull when you want to define a class that has to have at least basic functions. Like a real interface for example USB.

interface USB {
    public function sendPower(); //charge iphone for example
    public function sendData(); //itunes
    public function recieveData();
}

Use abstract classes when there are several ways to to implement an object.

abstract class MobilePhone {
    public function isIphone();

    public function charge() {
        //get some power, all phones need that
    }
}

class iPhone extends MobilePhone {
    public function isIphone() { return true; }
}

select a value where it doesn't exist in another table

This would select 4 in your case

SELECT ID FROM TableA WHERE ID NOT IN (SELECT ID FROM TableB)

This would delete them

Python CSV error: line contains NULL byte

I bumped into this problem as well. Using the Python csv module, I was trying to read an XLS file created in MS Excel and running into the NULL byte error you were getting. I looked around and found the xlrd Python module for reading and formatting data from MS Excel spreadsheet files. With the xlrd module, I am not only able to read the file properly, but I can also access many different parts of the file in a way I couldn't before.

I thought it might help you.

TypeScript: Property does not exist on type '{}'

Access the field with array notation to avoid strict type checking on single field:

data['propertyName']; //will work even if data has not declared propertyName

Alternative way is (un)cast the variable for single access:

(<any>data).propertyName;//access propertyName like if data has no type

The first is shorter, the second is more explicit about type (un)casting

You can also totally disable type checking on all variable fields:

let untypedVariable:any= <any>{}; //disable type checking while declaring the variable
untypedVariable.propertyName = anyValue; //any field in untypedVariable is assignable and readable without type checking

Note: This would be more dangerous than avoid type checking just for a single field access, since all consecutive accesses on all fields are untyped

Laravel - Pass more than one variable to view

Came across a similar problem, but if you do not necessarily want to return a view with view file, you can do this:

return $view->with(compact('myVar1', 'myVar2', ..... , 'myLastVar'));

Handlebars.js Else If

The spirit of handlebars is that it is "logicless". Sometimes this makes us feel like we are fighting with it, and sometimes we end up with ugly nested if/else logic. You could write a helper; many people augment handlebars with a "better" conditional operator or believe that it should be part of the core. I think, though, that instead of this,

{{#if FriendStatus.IsFriend}}
  <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-mail-closed"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-mail-closed"></span></div>
{{else}}
  {{#if FriendStatus.FriendRequested}}
    <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-check"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-check"></span></div>
  {{else}}
    <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-plusthick"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-plusthick"></span></div>
  {{/if}}
{{/if}}

you might want to arrange things in your model so that you can have this,

{{#if is_friend }}
  <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-mail-closed"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-mail-closed"></span></div>
{{/if}}

{{#if is_not_friend_yet }}
    <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-check"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-check"></span></div>
{{/if}}

{{#if will_never_be_my_friend }}
    <div class="ui-state-default ui-corner-all" title=".ui-icon-plusthick"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-plusthick"></span></div>
{{/if}}

Just make sure that only one of these flags is ever true. Chances are, if you are using this if/elsif/else in your view, you are probably using it somewhere else too, so these variables might not end up being superfluous.

Keep it lean.

Uses of content-disposition in an HTTP response header

This header is defined in RFC 2183, so that would be the best place to start reading.

Permitted values are those registered with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA); their registry of values should be seen as the definitive source.

Parsing a JSON array using Json.Net

You can get at the data values like this:

string json = @"
[ 
    { ""General"" : ""At this time we do not have any frequent support requests."" },
    { ""Support"" : ""For support inquires, please see our support page."" }
]";

JArray a = JArray.Parse(json);

foreach (JObject o in a.Children<JObject>())
{
    foreach (JProperty p in o.Properties())
    {
        string name = p.Name;
        string value = (string)p.Value;
        Console.WriteLine(name + " -- " + value);
    }
}

Include of non-modular header inside framework module

I came across this issue as well and originally thought it was a CocoaPods issue, but it was an issue in the apps build settings where someone (probably me) had set ${PODS_ROOT} in Header Search Paths and set it to be a recursive search. This was allowing it to find headers that were not intended to be used when building the app. Once I set this to use non-recursive everything was fine. using recursive search is a terrible hack to try to find the proper headers. Lesson learned.

MySQL Like multiple values

Why not you try REGEXP. Try it like this:

Creating a data frame from two vectors using cbind

Vectors and matrices can only be of a single type and cbind and rbind on vectors will give matrices. In these cases, the numeric values will be promoted to character values since that type will hold all the values.

(Note that in your rbind example, the promotion happens within the c call:

> c(10, "[]", "[[1,2]]")
[1] "10"      "[]"      "[[1,2]]"

If you want a rectangular structure where the columns can be different types, you want a data.frame. Any of the following should get you what you want:

> x = data.frame(v1=c(10, 20), v2=c("[]", "[]"), v3=c("[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]"))
> x
  v1 v2      v3
1 10 [] [[1,2]]
2 20 [] [[1,3]]
> str(x)
'data.frame':   2 obs. of  3 variables:
 $ v1: num  10 20
 $ v2: Factor w/ 1 level "[]": 1 1
 $ v3: Factor w/ 2 levels "[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]": 1 2

or (using specifically the data.frame version of cbind)

> x = cbind.data.frame(c(10, 20), c("[]", "[]"), c("[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]"))
> x
  c(10, 20) c("[]", "[]") c("[[1,2]]", "[[1,3]]")
1        10            []                 [[1,2]]
2        20            []                 [[1,3]]
> str(x)
'data.frame':   2 obs. of  3 variables:
 $ c(10, 20)              : num  10 20
 $ c("[]", "[]")          : Factor w/ 1 level "[]": 1 1
 $ c("[[1,2]]", "[[1,3]]"): Factor w/ 2 levels "[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]": 1 2

or (using cbind, but making the first a data.frame so that it combines as data.frames do):

> x = cbind(data.frame(c(10, 20)), c("[]", "[]"), c("[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]"))
> x
  c.10..20. c("[]", "[]") c("[[1,2]]", "[[1,3]]")
1        10            []                 [[1,2]]
2        20            []                 [[1,3]]
> str(x)
'data.frame':   2 obs. of  3 variables:
 $ c.10..20.              : num  10 20
 $ c("[]", "[]")          : Factor w/ 1 level "[]": 1 1
 $ c("[[1,2]]", "[[1,3]]"): Factor w/ 2 levels "[[1,2]]","[[1,3]]": 1 2

How is a CRC32 checksum calculated?

In addition to the Wikipedia Cyclic redundancy check and Computation of CRC articles, I found a paper entitled Reversing CRC - Theory and Practice^* to be a good reference.

There are essentially three approaches for computing a CRC: an algebraic approach, a bit-oriented approach, and a table-driven approach. In Reversing CRC - Theory and Practice^*, each of these three algorithms/approaches is explained in theory accompanied in the APPENDIX by an implementation for the CRC32 in the C programming language.

What is the "continue" keyword and how does it work in Java?

If you think of the body of a loop as a subroutine, continue is sort of like return. The same keyword exists in C, and serves the same purpose. Here's a contrived example:

for(int i=0; i < 10; ++i) {
  if (i % 2 == 0) {
    continue;
  }
  System.out.println(i);
}

This will print out only the odd numbers.

Using getResources() in non-activity class

In simple class declare context and get data from file from res folder

public class FileData
{
      private Context context;

        public FileData(Context current){
            this.context = current;
        }
        void  getData()
        {
        InputStream in = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.file11);
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
        //write stuff to get Data

        }
}

In the activity class declare like this

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity 
{
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        FileData fileData=new FileData(this);
     }

}

What is the perfect counterpart in Python for "while not EOF"

You can imitate the C idiom in Python.

To read a buffer up to max_size number of bytes, you can do this:

with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
    while True:
        buf = f.read(max_size)
        if not buf:
            break
        process(buf)

Or, a text file line by line:

# warning -- not idiomatic Python! See below...
with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
    while True:
        line = f.readline()
        if not line:
            break
        process(line)

You need to use while True / break construct since there is no eof test in Python other than the lack of bytes returned from a read.

In C, you might have:

while ((ch != '\n') && (ch != EOF)) {
   // read the next ch and add to a buffer
   // ..
}

However, you cannot have this in Python:

 while (line = f.readline()):
     # syntax error

because assignments are not allowed in expressions in Python (although recent versions of Python can mimic this using assignment expressions, see below).

It is certainly more idiomatic in Python to do this:

# THIS IS IDIOMATIC Python. Do this:
with open('somefile') as f:
    for line in f:
        process(line)

Update: Since Python 3.8 you may also use assignment expressions:

 while line := f.readline():
     process(line)

How to make the HTML link activated by clicking on the <li>?

As Marineio said, you could use the onclick attribute of the <li> to change location.href, through javascript:

<li onclick="location.href='http://example';"> ... </li>

Alternatively, you could remove any margins or padding in the <li>, and add a large padding to the left side of the <a> to avoid text going over the bullet.

        Scanner scan = new Scanner(mysz);

        String result = "";
        while(scan.hasNext()) {
            result += scan.next();
        }
        System.out.println(result);
    }

How to resize an image to a specific size in OpenCV?

For your information, the python equivalent is:

cv.Resize( imageBuffer, smallerImage , interpolation=cv.CV_INTER_CUBIC )
cv.SaveImage( strDst, smallerImage )

What is thread safe or non-thread safe in PHP?

Apache MPM prefork with modphp is used because it is easy to configure/install. Performance-wise it is fairly inefficient. My preferred way to do the stack, FastCGI/PHP-FPM. That way you can use the much faster MPM Worker. The whole PHP remains non-threaded, but Apache serves threaded (like it should).

So basically, from bottom to top

Linux

Apache + MPM Worker + ModFastCGI (NOT FCGI) |(or)| Cherokee |(or)| Nginx

PHP-FPM + APC

ModFCGI does not correctly support PHP-FPM, or any external FastCGI applications. It only supports non-process managed FastCGI scripts. PHP-FPM is the PHP FastCGI process manager.

Facebook OAuth "The domain of this URL isn't included in the app's domain"

The problem, and the answers, keep changing as FB tightens up the login procedure. Today, I started getting this horror message "The domain of this URL isn't included in the app's domains. To be able to load this URL, add all domains and subdomains of your app to the App Domains field in your app settings."

The answer was: now FB wants the full redirect uri. So for me, where it used to be just https://www.example.com it now wants https://www.example.com/auth/facebook/callback. This has to go in the "Valid OAuth redirect URIs" field (Developer/Facebook login->setting)

How to initialize an array in Java?

If you want to initialize an array in a constructor, you can't use those array initializer like.

data= {10,20,30,40,50,60,71,80,90,91};

Just change it to

data = new int[] {10,20,30,40,50,60,71,80,90,91};

You don't have to specify the size with data[10] = new int[] { 10,...,91} Just declare the property / field with int[] data; and initialize it like above. The corrected version of your code would look like the following:

public class Array {

    int[] data;

    public Array() {
        data = new int[] {10,20,30,40,50,60,71,80,90,91};
    }

}

As you see the bracket are empty. There isn't any need to tell the size between the brackets, because the initialization and its size are specified by the count of the elements between the curly brackets.

How to access html form input from asp.net code behind

jQuery: value.attr is not a function

The second parameter of the callback function passed to each() will contain the actual DOM element and not a jQuery wrapper object. You can call the getAttribute() method of the element:

$('#category_sorting_form_save').click(function() {
    var elements = $("#category_sorting_elements > div");
    $.each(elements, function(key, value) {
        console.info(key, ": ", value);
        console.info("cat_id: ", value.getAttribute('cat_id'));
    });
});

Or wrap the element in a jQuery object yourself:

$('#category_sorting_form_save').click(function() {
    var elements = $("#category_sorting_elements > div");
    $.each(elements, function(key, value) {
        console.info(key, ": ", value);
        console.info("cat_id: ", $(value).attr('cat_id'));
    });
});

Or simply use $(this):

$('#category_sorting_form_save').click(function() {
    var elements = $("#category_sorting_elements > div");
    $.each(elements, function() {
        console.info("cat_id: ", $(this).attr('cat_id'));
    });
});

AWS : The config profile (MyName) could not be found

Working with profiles is little tricky. Documentation can be found at: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/topic/config-vars.html (But you need to pay attention on env variables like AWS_PROFILE)

Using profile with aws cli requires a config file (default at ~/.aws/config or set using AWS_CONFIG_FILE). A sample config file for reference: `

[profile PROFILE_NAME]
 output=json
 region=us-west-1
 aws_access_key_id=foo
 aws_secret_access_key=bar

Env variable AWS_PROFILE informs AWS cli about the profile to use from AWS config. It is not an alternate of config file like AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY are for ~/.aws/credentials.

Another interesting fact is if AWS_PROFILE is set and the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables are set, then the credentials provided by AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY will override the credentials located in the profile provided by AWS_PROFILE.

How do you set the Content-Type header for an HttpClient request?

You can use this it will be work!

How do I do string replace in JavaScript to convert ‘9.61’ to ‘9:61’?

Do it like this:

value = value.replace(".", ":"); // value = 9:61
// can then use it as
$("#anothertext").val(value);

Updated to reflect to current version of jQuery. And also there are a lot of answers here that would best fit to any same situation as this. You, as a developer, need to know which is which.

Replace all occurrences

Check if an array contains any element of another array in JavaScript

Not sure how efficient this might be in terms of performance, but this is what I use using array destructuring to keep everything nice and short:

const shareElements = (arr1, arr2) => {
  const typeArr = [...arr1, ...arr2]
  const typeSet = new Set(typeArr)
  return typeArr.length > typeSet.size
}

Since sets cannot have duplicate elements while arrays can, combining both input arrays, converting it to a set, and comparing the set size and array length would tell you if they share any elements.

Running a CMD or BAT in silent mode

I think this is the easiest and shortest solution to running a batch file without opening the DOS window, it can be very distracting when you want to schedule a set of commands to run periodically, so the DOS window keeps popping up, here is your solution. Use a VBS Script to call the batch file ...

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell" ) 
WshShell.Run chr(34) & "C:\Batch Files\ mycommands.bat" & Chr(34), 0 
Set WshShell = Nothing

Copy the lines above to an editor and save the file with .VBS extension. Edit the .BAT file name and path accordingly.

How to consume REST in Java

As others have said, you can do it using the lower level HTTP API, or you can use the higher level JAXRS APIs to consume a service as JSON. For example:

How to specify Memory & CPU limit in docker compose version 3

I know the topic is a bit old and seems stale, but anyway I was able to use these options:

    deploy:
      resources:
        limits:
          cpus: '0.001'
          memory: 50M

when using 3.7 version of docker-compose

What helped in my case, was using this command:

docker-compose --compatibility up

--compatibility flag stands for (taken from the documentation):

If set, Compose will attempt to convert deploy keys in v3 files to their non-Swarm equivalent

Think it's great, that I don't have to revert my docker-compose file back to v2.

Where to change the value of lower_case_table_names=2 on windows xampp

I have same problem while importing database from linux to Windows. It lowercases Database name aswell as Tables' name. Use following steps for same problem:

Open c:\xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini in editor.
look for

# The MySQL server

[mysqld]

3 . Find

lower_case_table_names

and change value to 2

if not avail copy this at the end of this [mysqld] portion.

lower_case_table_names = 2

This will surely work.

No module named 'openpyxl' - Python 3.4 - Ubuntu

I still was not able to import 'openpyxl' after successfully installing it via both conda and pip. I discovered that it was installed in '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages', so this https://stackoverflow.com/a/59861933/10794682 worked for me:

import sys 
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages')

Hope this might be useful for others.

store return json value in input hidden field

It looks like the return value is in an array? That's somewhat strange... and also be aware that certain browsers will allow that to be parsed from a cross-domain request (which isn't true when you have a top-level JSON object).

Anyway, if that is an array wrapper, you'll want something like this:

$('#my-hidden-field').val(theObject[0].id);

You can later retrieve it through a simple .val() call on the same field. This honestly looks kind of strange though. The hidden field won't persist across page requests, so why don't you just keep it in your own (pseudo-namespaced) value bucket? E.g.,

$MyNamespace = $MyNamespace || {};
$MyNamespace.myKey = theObject;

This will make it available to you from anywhere, without any hacky input field management. It's also a lot more efficient than doing DOM modification for simple value storage.

Java string replace and the NUL (NULL, ASCII 0) character?

Does replacing a character in a String with a null character even work in Java? I know that '\0' will terminate a c-string.

That depends on how you define what is working. Does it replace all occurrences of the target character with '\0'? Absolutely!

String s = "food".replace('o', '\0');
System.out.println(s.indexOf('\0')); // "1"
System.out.println(s.indexOf('d')); // "3"
System.out.println(s.length()); // "4"
System.out.println(s.hashCode() == 'f'*31*31*31 + 'd'); // "true"

Everything seems to work fine to me! indexOf can find it, it counts as part of the length, and its value for hash code calculation is 0; everything is as specified by the JLS/API.

It DOESN'T work if you expect replacing a character with the null character would somehow remove that character from the string. Of course it doesn't work like that. A null character is still a character!

String s = Character.toString('\0');
System.out.println(s.length()); // "1"
assert s.charAt(0) == 0;

It also DOESN'T work if you expect the null character to terminate a string. It's evident from the snippets above, but it's also clearly specified in JLS (10.9. An Array of Characters is Not a String):

In the Java programming language, unlike C, an array of char is not a String, and neither a String nor an array of char is terminated by '\u0000' (the NUL character).

Would this be the culprit to the funky characters?

Now we're talking about an entirely different thing, i.e. how the string is rendered on screen. Truth is, even "Hello world!" will look funky if you use dingbats font. A unicode string may look funky in one locale but not the other. Even a properly rendered unicode string containing, say, Chinese characters, may still look funky to someone from, say, Greenland.

That said, the null character probably will look funky regardless; usually it's not a character that you want to display. That said, since null character is not the string terminator, Java is more than capable of handling it one way or another.

Now to address what we assume is the intended effect, i.e. remove all period from a string, the simplest solution is to use the replace(CharSequence, CharSequence) overload.

System.out.println("A.E.I.O.U".replace(".", "")); // AEIOU

The replaceAll solution is mentioned here too, but that works with regular expression, which is why you need to escape the dot meta character, and is likely to be slower.

Python: CSV write by column rather than row

Let's assume that (1) you don't have a large memory (2) you have row headings in a list (3) all the data values are floats; if they're all integers up to 32- or 64-bits worth, that's even better.

On a 32-bit Python, storing a float in a list takes 16 bytes for the float object and 4 bytes for a pointer in the list; total 20. Storing a float in an array.array('d') takes only 8 bytes. Increasingly spectacular savings are available if all your data are int (any negatives?) that will fit in 8, 4, 2 or 1 byte(s) -- especially on a recent Python where all ints are longs.

The following pseudocode assumes floats stored in array.array('d'). In case you don't really have a memory problem, you can still use this method; I've put in comments to indicate the changes needed if you want to use a list.

# Preliminary:
import array # list: delete
hlist = []
dlist = []
for each row: 
    hlist.append(some_heading_string)
    dlist.append(array.array('d')) # list: dlist.append([])
# generate data
col_index = -1
for each column:
    col_index += 1
    for row_index in xrange(len(hlist)):
        v = calculated_data_value(row_index, colindex)
        dlist[row_index].append(v)
# write to csv file
for row_index in xrange(len(hlist)):
    row = [hlist[row_index]]
    row.extend(dlist[row_index])
    csv_writer.writerow(row)

Catching "Maximum request length exceeded"

Hi solution mentioned by Damien McGivern, Works on IIS6 only,

It does not work on IIS7 and ASP.NET Development Server. I get page displaying "404 - File or directory not found."

Any ideas?

EDIT:

Got it... This solution still doesn't work on ASP.NET Development Server, but I got the reason why it was not working on IIS7 in my case.

The reason is IIS7 has a built-in request scanning which imposes an upload file cap which defaults to 30000000 bytes (which is slightly less that 30MB).

And I was trying to upload file of size 100 MB to test the solution mentioned by Damien McGivern (with maxRequestLength="10240" i.e. 10MB in web.config). Now, If I upload the file of size > 10MB and < 30 MB then the page is redirected to the specified error page. But if the file size is > 30MB then it show the ugly built-in error page displaying "404 - File or directory not found."

So, to avoid this, you have to increase the max. allowed request content length for your website in IIS7. That can be done using following command,

appcmd set config "SiteName" -section:requestFiltering -requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength:209715200 -commitpath:apphost

I have set the max. content length to 200MB.

After doing this setting, the page is succssfully redirected to my error page when I try to upload file of 100MB

Refer, http://weblogs.asp.net/jgalloway/archive/2008/01/08/large-file-uploads-in-asp-net.aspx for more details.

c++ compile error: ISO C++ forbids comparison between pointer and integer

A string literal is delimited by quotation marks and is of type char* not char.

Example: "hello"

So when you compare a char to a char* you will get that same compiling error.

char c = 'c';
char *p = "hello";

if(c==p)//compiling error
{
}

To fix use a char literal which is delimited by single quotes.

Example: 'c'

when I try to open an HTML file through `http://localhost/xampp/htdocs/index.html` it says unable to connect to localhost

instead of

 http://localhost/xampp/htdocs/index.html

try just

http://localhost/index.html

or if index.html is saved in a folder in htdocs then

http://localhost/<folder-name>/index.html

Converting Float to Dollars and Cents

Personally, I like this much better (which, granted, is just a different way of writing the currently selected "best answer"):

money = float(1234.5)
print('$' + format(money, ',.2f'))

Or, if you REALLY don't like "adding" multiple strings to combine them, you could do this instead:

money = float(1234.5)
print('${0}'.format(format(money, ',.2f')))

I just think both of these styles are a bit easier to read. :-)

(of course, you can still incorporate an If-Else to handle negative values as Eric suggests too)

Using column alias in WHERE clause of MySQL query produces an error

Maybe my answer is too late but this can help others.

You can enclose it with another select statement and use where clause to it.

SELECT * FROM (Select col1, col2,...) as t WHERE t.calcAlias > 0

calcAlias is the alias column that was calculated.

C library function to perform sort

qsort() is the function you're looking for. You call it with a pointer to your array of data, the number of elements in that array, the size of each element and a comparison function.

It does its magic and your array is sorted in-place. An example follows:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int comp (const void * elem1, const void * elem2) 
{
    int f = *((int*)elem1);
    int s = *((int*)elem2);
    if (f > s) return  1;
    if (f < s) return -1;
    return 0;
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) 
{
    int x[] = {4,5,2,3,1,0,9,8,6,7};

    qsort (x, sizeof(x)/sizeof(*x), sizeof(*x), comp);

    for (int i = 0 ; i < 10 ; i++)
        printf ("%d ", x[i]);

    return 0;
}

use .loc instead of apply.

it improves vectorization.

.loc works in simple manner, mask rows based on the condition, apply values to the freeze rows.

java, get set methods

your panel class don't have a constructor that accepts a string

try change

RLS_strid_panel p = new RLS_strid_panel(namn1);

RLS_strid_panel p = new RLS_strid_panel();
p.setName1(name1);

Step out of current function with GDB

You can use the finish command.

finish: Continue running until just after function in the selected stack frame returns. Print the returned value (if any). This command can be abbreviated as fin.

Facebook Access Token for Pages

The documentation for this is good if not a little difficult to find.

Facebook Graph API - Page Tokens

After initializing node's fbgraph, you can run:

var facebookAccountID = yourAccountIdHere 

graph
.setOptions(options)
.get(facebookAccountId + "/accounts", function(err, res) {
  console.log(res); 
});

and receive a JSON response with the token you want to grab, located at:

res.data[0].access_token

Good Java graph algorithm library?

http://neo4j.org/ is a graph database that contains many of graph algorithms and scales better than most in-memory libraries.

How can I send JSON response in symfony2 controller

If your data is already serialized:

a) send a JSON response

public function someAction()
{
    $response = new Response();
    $response->setContent(file_get_contents('path/to/file'));
    $response->headers->set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    return $response;
}

b) send a JSONP response (with callback)

public function someAction()
{
    $response = new Response();
    $response->setContent('/**/FUNCTION_CALLBACK_NAME(' . file_get_contents('path/to/file') . ');');
    $response->headers->set('Content-Type', 'text/javascript');
    return $response;
}

If your data needs be serialized:

c) send a JSON response

public function someAction()
{
    $response = new JsonResponse();
    $response->setData([some array]);
    return $response;
}

d) send a JSONP response (with callback)

public function someAction()
{
    $response = new JsonResponse();
    $response->setData([some array]);
    $response->setCallback('FUNCTION_CALLBACK_NAME');
    return $response;
}

e) use groups in Symfony 3.x.x

Create groups inside your Entities

<?php

namespace Mindlahus;

use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Annotation\Groups;

/**
 * Some Super Class Name
 *
 * @ORM    able("table_name")
 * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="SomeSuperClassNameRepository")
 * @UniqueEntity(
 *  fields={"foo", "boo"},
 *  ignoreNull=false
 * )
 */
class SomeSuperClassName
{
    /**
     * @Groups({"group1", "group2"})
     */
    public $foo;
    /**
     * @Groups({"group1"})
     */
    public $date;

    /**
     * @Groups({"group3"})
     */
    public function getBar() // is* methods are also supported
    {
        return $this->bar;
    }

    // ...
}

Normalize your Doctrine Object inside the logic of your application

<?php

use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Mapping\Factory\ClassMetadataFactory;
// For annotations
use Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationReader;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Mapping\Loader\AnnotationLoader;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Serializer;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Normalizer\ObjectNormalizer;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Encoder\JsonEncoder;

...

$repository = $this->getDoctrine()->getRepository('Mindlahus:SomeSuperClassName');
$SomeSuperObject = $repository->findOneById($id);

$classMetadataFactory = new ClassMetadataFactory(new AnnotationLoader(new AnnotationReader()));
$encoder = new JsonEncoder();
$normalizer = new ObjectNormalizer($classMetadataFactory);
$callback = function ($dateTime) {
    return $dateTime instanceof \DateTime
        ? $dateTime->format('m-d-Y')
        : '';
};
$normalizer->setCallbacks(array('date' => $callback));
$serializer = new Serializer(array($normalizer), array($encoder));
$data = $serializer->normalize($SomeSuperObject, null, array('groups' => array('group1')));

$response = new Response();
$response->setContent($serializer->serialize($data, 'json'));
$response->headers->set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
return $response;

Create an array with random values

Here is a ES6 function that allows a min and a max and will generate an array of unique values in random order that contain all the number from min to max inclusive:

const createRandomNumbers = (min, max) => {
  const randomNumbers = new Set()
  const range = max - min + 1

  while (randomNumbers.size < range) {
    randomNumbers.add(~~(Math.random() * range))
  }

  return [...randomNumbers]
}

Android image caching

Late answer but I think this library will help a lot with caching images : https://github.com/crypticminds/ColdStorage.

Simply annotate the ImageView with @LoadCache(R.id.id_of_my_image_view, "URL_to_downlaod_image_from) and it will take care of downloading the image and loading it into the image view. You can also specify a placeholder image and loading animation.

Detailed documentation of the annotation is present here :- https://github.com/crypticminds/ColdStorage/wiki/@LoadImage-annotation

Hide HTML element by id

I found that the following code, when inserted into the site's footer, worked well enough:

<script type="text/javascript">
$("#nav-ask").remove();
</script>

This may or may not require jquery. The site I'm editing has jquery, but unfortunately I'm no javascripter, so I only have a limited knowledge of what's going on here, and the requirements of this code snippet...

jQuery UI DatePicker to show month year only

I combined many of above good answers and arrive on this:

    $('#payCardExpireDate').datepicker(
            {
                dateFormat: "mm/yy",
                changeMonth: true,
                changeYear: true,
                showButtonPanel: true,
                onClose: function(dateText, inst) { 
                    var month = $("#ui-datepicker-div .ui-datepicker-month :selected").val();
                    var year = $("#ui-datepicker-div .ui-datepicker-year :selected").val();
                    $(this).datepicker('setDate', new Date(year, month, 1)).trigger('change');
                },
                beforeShow : function(input, inst) {
                    if ((datestr = $(this).val()).length > 0) {
                        year = datestr.substring(datestr.length-4, datestr.length);
                        month = datestr.substring(0, 2);
                        $(this).datepicker('option', 'defaultDate', new Date(year, month-1, 1));
                        $(this).datepicker('setDate', new Date(year, month-1, 1));
                    }
                }
            }).focus(function () {
                $(".ui-datepicker-calendar").hide();
                $("#ui-datepicker-div").position({
                    my: "center top",
                    at: "center bottom",
                    of: $(this)
                });
            });

This is proved working but facing many bugs so I was forced to patch in several places of datepicker:

if($.datepicker._get(inst, "dateFormat") === "mm/yy")
{
    $(".ui-datepicker-calendar").hide();
}

patch1: in _showDatepicker : to smooth the hide;

patch2: in _checkOffset: to correct month picker positioning (otherwise when the field is at the bottom of the browser, the offset check is off);

patch3: in onClose of _hideDatepicker: otherwise when closing the date fields will flash for a very short period which is very annoying.

I know the my fix was far from good but for now it's working. Hope it helps.

How do I login and authenticate to Postgresql after a fresh install?

The error your are getting is because your-ubuntu-username is not a valid Postgres user.

Java Package Does Not Exist Error

If you are facing this issue while using Kotlin and have

kotlin.incremental=true
kapt.incremental.apt=true

in the gradle.properties, then you need to remove this temporarily to fix the build.

After the successful build, you can again add these properties to speed up the build time while using Kotlin.

JS regex: replace all digits in string

You forgot to add the global operator. Use this:

_x000D_

var s = "04.07.2012";_x000D_
alert(s.replace(new RegExp("[0-9]","g"), "X"));

_x000D_

How to disable the parent form when a child form is active?

What you could do, is to make sure to pass the parent form as the owner when showing the child form:

  Form newForm = new ChildForm();
  newForm.Show(this);

Then, in the child form, set up event handlers for the Activated and Deactivate events:

private void Form_Activated(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.Owner != null)
    {
        this.Owner.Enabled = false; 
    }
}

private void Form_Deactivate(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.Owner != null)
    {
        this.Owner.Enabled = true;
    }
}

However, this will result in a truly wierd behaviour; while you will not be able to go back and interact with the parent form immediately, activating any other application will enable it, and then the user can interact with it.

If you want to make the child form modal, use ShowDialog instead:

  Form newForm = new ChildForm();
  newForm.ShowDialog(this);

How to create helper file full of functions in react native?

I am sure this can help. Create fileA anywhere in the directory and export all the functions.

export const func1=()=>{
    // do stuff
}
export const func2=()=>{
    // do stuff 
}
export const func3=()=>{
    // do stuff 
}
export const func4=()=>{
    // do stuff 
}
export const func5=()=>{
    // do stuff 
}

Here, in your React component class, you can simply write one import statement.

import React from 'react';
import {func1,func2,func3} from 'path_to_fileA';

class HtmlComponents extends React.Component {
    constructor(props){
        super(props);
        this.rippleClickFunction=this.rippleClickFunction.bind(this);
    }
    rippleClickFunction(){
        //do stuff. 
        // foo==bar
        func1(data);
        func2(data)
    }
   render() {
      return (
         <article>
             <h1>React Components</h1>
             <RippleButton onClick={this.rippleClickFunction}/>
         </article>
      );
   }
}

export default HtmlComponents;

How to git clone a specific tag

How do I get only directories using Get-ChildItem?

How do I start a process from C#?

Declare this

[DllImport("user32")]
private static extern bool SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr hwnd);
[DllImport("user32")]
private static extern bool ShowWindowAsync(IntPtr hwnd, int a);

And put this inside your function (note that "checkInstalled" is optional, but if you'll use it, you have to implement it)

if (ckeckInstalled("example"))
{
    int count = Process.GetProcessesByName("example").Count();
    if (count < 1)
        Process.Start("example.exe");
    else
    {
        var proc = Process.GetProcessesByName("example").FirstOrDefault();
        if (proc != null && proc.MainWindowHandle != IntPtr.Zero)
        {
            SetForegroundWindow(proc.MainWindowHandle);
            ShowWindowAsync(proc.MainWindowHandle, 3);
        }
    }
}

NOTE: I'm not sure if this works when more than one instance of the .exe is running.

Passing in class names to react components

You can achieve this by "interpolating" the className passed from the parent component to the child component using this.props.className. Example below:

export default class ParentComponent extends React.Component {
  render(){
    return <ChildComponent className="your-modifier-class" />
  }
}

export default class ChildComponent extends React.Component {
  render(){
    return <div className={"original-class " + this.props.className}></div>
  }
}

Use jQuery to scroll to the bottom of a div with lots of text

No need to calculate the actual height of the contents; you can just scroll down a lot:

$(function () {
  $('.messageScrollArea').scrollTop(1E10);
});

How can I send large messages with Kafka (over 15MB)?

The idea is to have equal size of message being sent from Kafka Producer to Kafka Broker and then received by Kafka Consumer i.e.

Kafka producer --> Kafka Broker --> Kafka Consumer

Suppose if the requirement is to send 15MB of message, then the Producer, the Broker and the Consumer, all three, needs to be in sync.

Kafka Producer sends 15 MB --> Kafka Broker Allows/Stores 15 MB --> Kafka Consumer receives 15 MB

The setting therefore should be:

a) on Broker:

message.max.bytes=15728640 
replica.fetch.max.bytes=15728640

b) on Consumer:

fetch.message.max.bytes=15728640

How do I specify the columns and rows of a multiline Editor-For in ASP.MVC?

In ASP.NET MVC 5 you could use the [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)] attribute. It will render a TextArea tag.

public class MyModel
{
    [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)]
    public string MyField { get; set; }
}

Then in the view if you need to specify the rows you can do it like this:

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.MyField, new { htmlAttributes = new { rows = 10 } })

Or just use the TextAreaFor with the right overload:

@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.MyField, 10, 20, null)

What does the shrink-to-fit viewport meta attribute do?

As stats on iOS usage, indicating that iOS 9.0-9.2.x usage is currently at 0.17%. If these numbers are truly indicative of global use of these versions, then it’s even more likely to be safe to remove shrink-to-fit from your viewport meta tag.

After 9.2.x. IOS remove this tag check on its' browser.

You can check this page https://www.scottohara.me/blog/2018/12/11/shrink-to-fit.html

What arguments are passed into AsyncTask<arg1, arg2, arg3>?

Refer to following links:

You cannot pass more than three arguments, if you want to pass only 1 argument then use void for the other two arguments.

1. private class DownloadFilesTask extends AsyncTask<URL, Integer, Long> 


2. protected class InitTask extends AsyncTask<Context, Integer, Integer>

An asynchronous task is defined by a computation that runs on a background thread and whose result is published on the UI thread. An asynchronous task is defined by 3 generic types, called Params, Progress and Result, and 4 steps, called onPreExecute, doInBackground, onProgressUpdate and onPostExecute.
