Couchbase EBS RAID Backup on Scalarium
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# Backs up the mounted EBS RAID storage used by Couchbase of an EC2 instance using the Scalarium API.
#
# Before running the snapshot it stops Couchbase disk writes and then freezes the file system.
# File system must be XFS.
#
# Usage: Backup.new(<scalarium api token>, <mount point for ebs raid>, <name of couchbase bucket to back up>).start (must be run on the EC2 instance).

Spring + Rubymine
In shell:
export RUBYLIB=/path/to/RubyMine/rb/testing/patch/common:/path/to/RubyMine/rb/testing/patch/bdd
spring rspec spec/ # to launch spring server
In Rubymine:
Uncheck bundler
Select custom runner script as spring_rspec.rb
add same variable to environment variables:
RUBYLIB=/path/to/RubyMine/rb/testing/patch/common:/path/to/RubyMine/rb/testing/patch/bdd
#!/bin/bash
# by http://github.com/jehiah
# this prints out some branch status (similar to the '... ahead' info you get from git status)
# example:
# $ git branch-status
# dns_check (ahead 1) | (behind 112) origin/master
# master (ahead 2) | (behind 0) origin/master
