Language tips

Try to be mindful of your words in written communications. Here are some tricks to leaving a good impression with written words online.

Avoid "do" and "don't"

When writing imperative sentences, try not to start your sentences with "don't." Try the word "avoid" instead.

• ⚠️ "Don't use big words."
  This imperative command can make the reader feel like they have no choice on the matter. It implies that the decision lies solely on you, which implies that you don't want to listen to their feedback.

Google Drive File Picker Example

This is an example of how to use the Google Drive file picker and Google Drive API to retrieve files from Google Drive using pure JavaScript. At the time of writing (14th July 2013), Google have good examples for using these two APIs separately, but no documentation on using them together.

Note that this is just sample code, designed to be concise to demonstrate the API. In a production environment, you should include more error handling.

See a demo at http://stuff.dan.cx/js/filepicker/google/

app.directive('ngFocus', ['$parse', function($parse) {
  return function(scope, element, attr) {
    var fn = $parse(attr['ngFocus']);
    element.bind('focus', function(event) {
      scope.$apply(function() {
        fn(scope, {$event:event});
      });
    });
  }
}]);

/*
 * Decide on your cache-busting strategy.  In this example, we use the current timestamp, which will
 * force a change every time the app is visited, but not every time the partial is loaded within a 
 * visit.  Even better would be to use a hash of the file's contents to ensure that the file is always
 * reloaded when the file changes and never reloaded when it isn't.

var cacheBustSuffix = Date.now();

// Optionally, expose the cache busting value as a constant so other parts of your app can use it.
ngModule.constant("cacheBustSuffix", cacheBustSuffix);

// DON'T use the delete operator, it leaves a hole in the array:
var arr = [4, 5, 6];
delete arr[1]; // arr now: [4, undefined, 6]
