// ----------
// Cancel function!
// ----------
// NOTE:
// This allows us to externalize the cancel function..
// kind of like a inversion of control

let expensiveApplication = delayMs => new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, delayMs))

// Long Running Process - LRP with cancel function!

/**
 * Sends a String of data to the Mac OSX Buffer, this is very helpful if 
 * you are doing something in scratch pad and want to copy it somewhere.
 * 
 * this beats Pipe-ing the output to pbcopy directly. 
 *
 * @param {string} data - Required UTF-8 String to be copied to the buffer.
 *
 * @return {void}

Exact Copy

Copy everything from one directory to another directory on a different volume in Unix, while retaining permissions, ownership, structure, as well as all creation and modification dates (timestamps)

When Destination is Fresh

rsync -avHAX --numeric-ids /source/directory/ /destination/directory/

Caution - removes destination files

To find all files with the extensions .yaml or .yml recursively in Unix / Mac OSX, you can use the find command with this pattern:

find . \( -name '*.yaml' -o -name '*.yml' \)

How to "Action" when a Mac Reboots

If your Mac reboots, and you want to be notified that it has rebooted.

How to launch a Script when your mac reboots

Create a .plist file at /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.YOUR_COMPANY.rebootnotification.plist. Change YOUR_COMPANY to your domain name in the .plist file. The contents will look like the following, change /path/to/your/script.sh to your script. This .plist file and the /path/to/your/script.sh should be owned by root:wheel my advise is to make it only executable by root. I take no responsiblities for any Security issues.

SIPS (Scriptable Image Processing System)

SIPS (Scriptable Image Processing System) is a command-line utility available on macOS that enables users to perform various image manipulation tasks directly from the command line. It supports a wide range of image file formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, and more

Example usage:

• Scale an image (without aspect ratio): sips -z width height input_image --out output_image
• Scale an image (maintain aspect ratio): sips -z 800 0 original.jpg --out scaled.jpg
• Query image properties: sips -g dpiHeight -g dpiWidth image.jpg

## One liner to remove Duplicates from an array and keep order.

old = ['a', 'b', 'a', 'c', 'b', 'a']
new = list(dict.fromkeys(old).keys())
