set -e, -u, -o, -x pipefail explanation

set -e, -u, -o, -x pipefail

The set lines

  • These lines deliberately cause your script to fail. Wait, what? Believe me, this is a good thing.
  • With these settings, certain common errors will cause the script to immediately fail, explicitly and loudly. Otherwise, you can get hidden bugs that are discovered only when they blow up in production.
  • set -euxo pipefail is short for:
set -e
set -u

Installing latest cmake and git versions on Rhel/Centos, and setting it as the default commands

Installing the latest git/cmake versions on RHEL/Centos

This should work on other Fedora-based distributions and for other packages, but I have not done extensive testing

Introduction

Using up-to-date versions of software on RHEL is a pain. I understand the eneterprise benefits, but configuring a development environment can be confusing, with most people using a combination of symlinks, adding folders to PATH, and enabling an scl_source

While this is still generally acceptable, there exists an alternative method (sorry).

The alternatives essentially creates a symlink, but it actually is a symbolic link to the alternatives directory, which in turn is a symbolic link to the actual program.

This allows for better package management and confines all sysadmin changes to the /etc directory, all while making switching back easier. It feels to me a lot like virtualenv in python

Use openssl to create an x509 self-signed certificate authority (CA), certificate signing request (CSR), and resulting private key with IP SAN and DNS SAN
# Define where to store the generated certs and metadata.
DIR="$(pwd)/tls"
# Optional: Ensure the target directory exists and is empty.
rm -rf "${DIR}"
mkdir -p "${DIR}"
# Create the openssl configuration file. This is used for both generating
# the certificate as well as for specifying the extensions. It aims in favor
# of automation, so the DN is encoding and not prompted.

Convert Movie(.mov) file to Gif(.gif) file in one command line in Mac Terminal

This notes is written by Sheldon. You can find me with #iOSBySheldon in Github, Youtube, Facebook, etc.

Need

Convert .mov/.MP4 to .gif

Reason

As a developer, I feel better to upload a short video when I create the pull request to show other viewers what I did in this PR. I tried .mov format directly got after finishing recording screen using Quicktime, however, gif offers preview in most web pages, and has smaller file size.

This is not limited to developer, anyone has this need can use this method to convert the files.

Getting a Shell in the Docker Desktop Mac VM

2021 Update: Easiest option is Justin's repo and image

Just run this from your Mac terminal and it'll drop you in a container with full permissions on the Docker VM. This also works for Docker for Windows for getting in Moby Linux VM (doesn't work for Windows Containers).

docker run -it --rm --privileged --pid=host justincormack/nsenter1
