Django logging to Firefox/Chrome devtools
"""
License: MIT - https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT
ChromeLogger is a protocol which allows sending logging messages to the Browser.
This module implements simple support for Django. It consists of two components:
* `LoggingMiddleware` which is responsible for sending all log messages
associated with the request to the browser.
* `ChromeLoggerHandler` a python logging handler which collects all messages.

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

How to copy production database on AWS RDS(postgresql) to local development database.
  1. Change your database RDS instance security group to allow your machine to access it.
    • Add your ip to the security group to acces the instance via Postgres.
  2. Make a copy of the database using pg_dump
    • $ pg_dump -h <public dns> -U <my username> -f <name of dump file .sql> <name of my database>
    • you will be asked for postgressql password.
    • a dump file(.sql) will be created
  3. Restore that dump file to your local database.
    • but you might need to drop the database and create it first
    • $ psql -U <postgresql username> -d <database name> -f <dump file that you want to restore>
  • the database is restored

django-boto3-cognito: AWS' Cognito Developer Authenticated Identities Authflow using Django/Python/Boto3 (For building stand-alone clients)
__author__ = 'dkarchmer'
'''
This script emulates a stand-alone Python based client. It relies on Boto3 to access AWS, but
requires your Django server to have an API for your user to access Cognito based credentials
Because of Cognito, the client (this script) will only get temporary AWS credentials associated
to your user and only your user, and based on whatever you configure your AIM Policy to be.
Most Cognito examples demonstrate how to use Cognito for Mobile Apps, so this scripts demonstrate
how to create a stand-alone Python script but operating similarly to these apps.
