How to recover lost Python source code if it's still resident in-memory

How to recover lost Python source code if it's still resident in-memory

I screwed up using git ("git checkout --" on the wrong file) and managed to delete the code I had just written... but it was still running in a process in a docker container. Here's how I got it back, using https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyrasite/ and https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncompyle6

Attach a shell to the docker container

Install GDB (needed by pyrasite)

apt-get update && apt-get install gdb

Recreating Promise.all with async/await
View promise-dot-all.js
/*
Let us re-create `Promise.all`
`Promise.all` method returns a promise that resolves when all of the promises in the iterable argument have resolved,
or rejects with the reason of the first passed promise that rejects.
Read more about `Promise.all` on MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise/all
A basic example would be something like this:

A clear convention for a CRUD with standard Ember + Ember Data
View README.md

CRUD with Ember (+ Data)

Compatible with Ember 1.13.0+ Compatible with Ember Data 1.13.0+

Ember's official documentation describes a number of low-level APIs, but doesn't talk much about how to put them together. As a result, a simple task such as creating a simple CRUD application is not obvious to a newcomer.

Using Python 3.x and Google Cloud Vision API to OCR scanned documents to extract structured data
View README.md

Using Python 3 + Google Cloud Vision API's OCR to extract text from photos and scanned documents

Just a quickie test in Python 3 (using Requests) to see if Google Cloud Vision can be used to effectively OCR a scanned data table and preserve its structure, in the way that products such as ABBYY FineReader can OCR an image and provide Excel-ready output.

The short answer: No. While Cloud Vision provides bounding polygon coordinates in its output, it doesn't provide it at the word or region level, which would be needed to then calculate the data delimiters.

On the other hand, the OCR quality is pretty good, if you just need to identify text anywhere in an image, without regards to its physical coordinates. I've included two examples:
