Application Session Management With OAuth

Fun with AngularJS & Ionic

---

I don't know about other developers -- but one of the most frustrating things in my mind to get going when starting a new hybrid application is session/authorization management. Do you use OAuth 1, OAuth 2, generic email login, facebook...even thinking about it stresses me out. Unfortunately, no good hybrid (or mobile for that matter) application can escape the need for good authorization (unless it is a stateless app, like a calculator, or something easy).

Personally -- I have come to love the OAuth 2 standard for its simplicity, and standards of operation. It takes some of the stress out of the decision making process when coming up with how to manage application state flow -- something which is especially necessary in [most] mobile (or native) applications. This article is going to focus on one of those pain points -- hybrid mobile app state management, and how to solve it with regards to the marriage of AngularJS & Ion

Regular Expression to Insert Character after every X Characters

I had a simple problem today. I needed to validate some files, but all of the line breaks were missing. I was dealing with a fixed width format data. A quick regular expression later and I had readable data.

Here's a few examples to demo the idea.

Insert a line break after every 94 characters

Find (.{94}) Replace \1\n

Insert a comma after every 10 characters

		case 'alnum':
			$pool = '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
			break;
		case 'alpha':
			$pool = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
			break;
		case 'hexdec':

SPARQL Queries (with cURL command) on Wikidata

This gist resulted to be just the spark for a proper article, and won't be maintained here anymore.

The SPARQL endpoint is http://wdqs-beta.wmflabs.org/bigdata/namespace/wdq/sparql and it has a Web form to fire queries. However http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/P31 ("instance of") tells you what the entity is.

The repository doesn't have named graphs, or at least the SPARQL endpoint rejects graph queries. The classes of entities (rdf:type) are not described in the repository.

To find the HTML page of an entity (such as https://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q866405), simply replace /entity/ with /wiki/.
