Postgres Cheatsheet

This is a collection of the most common commands I run while administering Postgres databases. The variables shown between the open and closed tags, "<" and ">", should be replaced with a name you choose. Postgres has multiple shortcut functions, starting with a forward slash, "". Any SQL command that is not a shortcut, must end with a semicolon, ";". You can use the keyboard UP and DOWN keys to scroll the history of previous commands you've run.

Use the Raspberry Pi Configuration tool or sudo raspi-config to:

    # Subscribing in on_connect() means that if we lose the connection and

Testing the matrix.org client-server API

Matrix is:

an open standard for decentralised communication, providing simple HTTP APIs and open source reference implementations for securely distributing and persisting JSON over an open federation of servers.

It's pretty fantastic, if you think on the massive problem of fragmentation all across the web. They've created an easy to use API, and you can do a kludgy test using curl from the terminal (*nix, mac, win). See: http://matrix.org/docs/howtos/client-server.html

It's pretty straightforward to do a quick test. I have an account at https://matrix.org / https://vector.im, so I used that to get a token.
