Node Cluster - Enhance your node app by using all the cores of your processor.

Here's all you have to do to add clustering to your node.js application.

  • save this code as cluster.js, and run cluster.js instead of server.js (or /bin/www, or whatever it's called for your project)
  • the only line you'll need to change is the last line - it needs to point to the location of your server.js file
var cluster = require('cluster');

if (cluster.isMaster) {
  // Count the machine's CPUs
 var cpuCount = require('os').cpus().length;

Run Ruby Script using cron job

If you see this error when cron job runs a ruby script:

'require': cannot load such file ...

And you are using bundler e.g. require 'bundler/setup'. It's probably because the directory where cron runs the script is not correct, resulting in bundler fails to load gems.

Simply changed the directory to fix it, i.e.

* * * * * /usr/local/bin/ruby -C /home/example/scripts example_script.rb >>/home/example/log/cron.log 2>&1

# The match method, returns true if valie, false if not.

# Use the URI library to parse the string, returning false if this fails.
