ranelpadon / issues_with_deleting_objects.py
Last active August 29, 2015 14:19
Python's __del__ has some nasty issues when dealing with objects, list, garbage collection, etc.
# Hypothetical class for saving the Universe.
class Particle:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
print self.name, 'created'
def __del__(self):
print self.name, 'deleted'
# Create new particle objects.

Create a Drupal block programmatically. This will create a block with an image and a tagline, demonstrating the use of theme function and render arrays
<?php
// HOW TO USE:
// Create a MY_MODULE.info file. See https://www.drupal.org/node/542202.
// Create a MY_MODULE.module file.
// Put the codes below in MY_MODULE.module file
// THE BIG PICTURE:
// For a block to work in Drupal, you have to do a minimum of 3 things:
// 1. Declare the block in hook_block_info().

Custom Drush Commands Demo. Rename the file as toolkit.drush.inc ($ mv toolkit.drush.inc.php toolkit.drush.inc). Make it executable ($ sudo chmod a+x toolkit.drush.inc). Put this file in ~/.drush folder so that you will have now a ~/.drush/toolkit.drush.inc file.
<?php
/**
* Implements COMMANDFILE_drush_command().
*/
function toolkit_drush_command() {
$items = array();
// Command for Clear Cache All.
// The 'cca' array key is what you type in the terminal, like: drush cca.
