Common Options

-#, --progress-bar Make curl display a simple progress bar instead of the more informational standard meter.

-b, --cookie <name=data> Supply cookie with request. If no =, then specifies the cookie file to use (see -c).

-c, --cookie-jar <file name> File to save response cookies to.

Intention

As Nylas customer, we experienced quite some issues with distinct emails getting merged under the same thread. By documenting the use cases hopefully this will help understand that the algorithm is flawed for some common use cases & need to be addressed ASAP.

Context:

gregory

var http = require('http');
var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();

/* GET users listing. */
router.get('/', function(req, res) {
  var request = require('request');

  var url = req.query.url;

Just a Handy Nylas client based on curl

From Meteor's documentation:

In Meteor, your server code runs in a single thread per request, not in the asynchronous callback style typical of Node. We find the linear execution model a better fit for the typical server code in a Meteor application.

This guide serves as a mini-tour of tools, trix and patterns that can be used to run async code in Meteor.

Basic async

Sometimes we need to run async code in Meteor.methods. For this we create a Future to block until the async code has finished. This pattern can be seen all over Meteor's own codebase:

# add something like this to config.ru

  require 'unicorn/worker_killer'
  # Max memory size (RSS) per worker
  use Unicorn::WorkerKiller::Oom, (350*(1024**2)), (400*(1024**2)), 30, true
