Create a Gatling feeder file using REST calls
/*
Basic blocks of code that will build a CSV file using repsonse data from API calls
This is a "one-off" process, meaning you will
1. run Gatling script to generate CSV file using REST calls (usually POSTS, but GETS or datbase queries could work )
2. copy the file into your project
3. compile and run Gatling

Technical questions
What is the difference between "express": "^4.13.3" and "express": "~4.13.3" ?
What happens if I use `npm install <package> --save` instead of `npm install <package> --save-dev` ?

String array manipulations

Take note of length - it is used as a String[] property > strings.length AND as a method for a String

HowTo: convert Maven to Gradle && Gradle to Maven
/* MAVEN TO GRADLE */
- Navigate to directory where the POM is located
- Run gradle init
> this will convert the Maven build to Gradle build (new settings.gradle & one or more build.gradle files)
/* GRADLE TO MAVEN */
- Add Maven plugin to build.gradle file
ex.
apply plugin: 'java'
// create an alternative method for getting a list of defined enums to avoid system creating a clone of the String array
// this is the .values() method
public enum Car {
TESLA, VOLVO, TOYOTA;
}
// normally what would happen
public static Car[] values() {
return (Car[])$VALUES.clone();

While you can get the public and private IP address of your Amazon EC2 instance via the AWS Console, it may be extremely useful to query it from anywhere you can make an HTTP request, such a shell script. The operation is really simple, just make a GET request to the following URL from within your EC2 instance:
Local IP:
curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/local-ipv4
Public IP:
curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/public-ipv4
I often use this feature to pre-configure services and update configuration files, as in EC2 you get a new IP Address each time you reboot
