Grunt task for cycling through each item in a directory on an interval and creating a symlink which points to it. This is helpful for cycling through logs, or an archive of data captured over time. Coupled with a server, it serves as a good simulated data endpoint. This should be defined after grunt.initConfig inside your Gruntfile, or you can r…

Standalone getScript. This performs the same ability as jQuery.getScript, including the optional callback, but doesn't support the Promises implementation shared with all the other jQuery.ajax methods.

colingourlay / Array.apply
Last active May 28, 2018 09:35
Function.prototype.apply 's handling of an object instead of an array. It forces the object through Array.prototype.slice function as 'this' to create an array, pretty much what we do to turn an arguments object into a real array.
Array.apply(null, [1, 2, 3])
> [1, 2, 3]
Array.apply(null, [1, 2, 3]).length
> 3
Array.apply(null, {length:3})
> [undefined, undefined, undefined]
Array.apply(null, {length:3}).length
