You have to make sure that the versions of TensorFlow, CUDA, cuDNN match up. Missing one small detail can throw everything off.
Luckly, Google provides some [pre-configured Docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/tensorflow/tensorflow) so you don't have to deal with this hassle. But there is still a bit of a hassle in managing the container, right?
Making things even easier, the lovely folks from System76 created [Tensorman](https://github.com/pop-os/tensorman), which abstracts away all the complexity of pulling the container, running our app, stopping, removing the container, etc.
## Running TensorFlow with Tensorman
With Tensorman installed (`apt install tensorman` from PopOS), it's as easy as:
```
$ tensorman run --gpu python -- ./script.py
```
This takes care of everything, even stopping and removing the container once the process goes down.
## Testing
Here's a sample script if you want to test it out:
```
import tensorflow as tf
print("TensorFlow version:", tf.__version__)
print("CUDA support:", tf.test.is_built_with_cuda())
print("GPU available:", tf.config.list_physical_devices('GPU'))
matrix1 = tf.constant([[1., 2., 3.], [4., 5., 6.], [7., 8., 9.]])
matrix2 = tf.constant([[1., 2., 3.], [4., 5., 6.], [7., 8., 9.]])
product = tf.matmul(matrix1, matrix2)
print("Matrix multiplication result: ", product.numpy())
```
## Removing NUMA warning messages
When running my sample script I got my output as expected:

Ugh, I don't want all those NUMA warning messages on my output. Here's how I've disable it (thanks to this [gist](https://gist.github.com/zrruziev/b93e1292bf2ee39284f834ec7397ee9f)):
```
$ lspci | grep -i nvidia
10:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 [GeForce RTX 2060] (rev a1)
10:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 HD Audio Controller (rev a1)
10:00.2 USB controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 USB 3.1 Host Controller (rev a1)

$ sudo echo 0 | sudo tee -a "/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:10:00.0/numa_node"
0
```
Running again:

Still noisy, but much better.

1,897,232 | Computer Science Challenge: Recursion | This is a submission for DEV Computer Science Challenge v24.06.12: One Byte Explainer. ... | 0 | 2024-06-22T17:24:40 | https://dev.to/darshanraval/computer-science-challenge-recursion-2c8h | devchallenge, cschallenge, computerscience, beginners | *This is a submission for [DEV Computer Science Challenge v24.06.12: One Byte Explainer](https://dev.to/challenges/cs).*
## Explainer
Recursion: Recursion is a programming method that involves a function calling itself to address versions of an issue until it reaches a base scenario. This technique plays a role, in activities such as navigating trees and organizing data making the code more straightforward and less complicated, by dividing challenges into easier-to-handle components.
## Additional Context
<!-- Please share any additional context you think the judges should take into consideration as it relates to your One Byte Explainer. -->
Recursion, in programming, involves a technique where a function calls itself to address instances of a problem. This method continues until it reaches a base case, which is a condition where the problem becomes simple enough to be solved stopping further recursive calls. The use of recursion is crucial in tasks such as navigating trees, where each node's subtrees are processed sequentially, and in sorting algorithms like quicksort and mergesort which divide arrays into segments for sorting. Through recursion complex problems are broken down into parts resulting in code that is often simpler and easier to understand. It is important to use recursion to prevent issues like loops and stack overflow errors, which can arise when the base case is not reached or the recursion depth becomes too high. Having a grasp of recursion aids, in developing elegant solutions for various computational challenges.

1,897,181 | Documenting my pin collection with Segment Anything: Part 4 | Welcome to the fourth entry in my series where I document my journey of cataloguing my enamel pin... | 27,656 | 2024-06-22T17:21:30 | https://blog.feregri.no/blog/documenting-my-pin-collection-with-segment-anything-part-4/ | jquery, javascript, html, python | Welcome to the fourth entry in my series where I document my journey of cataloguing my enamel pin collection. If you missed the previous posts, you can catch up [**here**](https://dev.to/feregri_no/series/27656). Previously, [I introduced a simple app](https://dev.to/feregri_no/documenting-my-pin-collection-with-segment-anything-part-3-4iam) that segments each pin, assigning unique identifiers and names. Although I shared some future enhancements at the end of my last post, it dawned on me that I had slightly deviated from my main objective: **effectively showcase my collection**.
In this update, I'll take you through the process of integrating all previous developments into a single interactive webpage. This page highlights each pin, with detailed information accessible via mouse hover, all crafted using HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery.
As always, let me show you what the end product looks like:
{% youtube 2uNkWPo6XAI %}
And the live web page of my [pin collection showcase v2 here](https://pins.feregri.no/v2/).
## Improving the quality of the cutout
Before getting into the front-end development, I wanted to try a couple of things to improve the quality of the cutout.
If you remember, from a previous post, the output of the Segment Anything Model is a set of masks covering where the segmented object is, however, for my use case the edges of the masks always ended up being a bit jagged, too pointy and complex, so I created the following function in an attempt to simplify the edges of the mask:
```python
def refine_mask(image, mask):
polygons = [Polygon(poly) for poly in sv.mask_to_polygons(mask)]
single_polygon = unary_union(polygons)
if single_polygon.geom_type == "Polygon":
selected_polygon = single_polygon
elif single_polygon.geom_type == "MultiPolygon":
selected_polygon = max(single_polygon.geoms, key=lambda x: x.area)
else:
raise ValueError(f"Unexpected geometry type: {single_polygon.geom_type}")
simplified_polygon = simplify(selected_polygon, 1.0)
selected_polygon = simplified_polygon.buffer(10, join_style=1).buffer(-10.0, join_style=1)
polygon = []
for x, y in zip(selected_polygon.exterior.xy[0], selected_polygon.exterior.xy[1]):
polygon.append(x)
polygon.append(y)
new_mask = sv.polygon_to_mask(
np.array(selected_polygon.exterior.coords, dtype=np.int32),
(image.shape[1], image.shape[0]),
)
return new_mask, polygon
```
A brief description of the function behaviour is:
### Parameters
- **image**: This is the original image associated with the mask. It is used to determine the dimensions for the new mask.
- **mask**: This is a binary mask produced by SAM where the areas of interest are marked.
### Function Body
#### Convert Mask to Polygons
```python
polygons = [Polygon(poly) for poly in sv.mask_to_polygons(mask)]
```
Converts the mask into a list of `shapely`’s `Polygon` objects. It is achieved by detecting contours or similar features in the mask using the `supervision` library’s `mask_to_polygons`.
#### Merge Polygons
```python
single_polygon = unary_union(polygons)
```
Combines these polygons into a single polygon using `shapely.ops.unary_union`, which efficiently merges overlapping or adjacent polygons.
#### Select Largest Polygon (if necessary)
```python
if single_polygon.geom_type == "Polygon":
selected_polygon = single_polygon
elif single_polygon.geom_type == "MultiPolygon":
selected_polygon = max(single_polygon.geoms, key=lambda x: x.area)
else:
raise ValueError(f"Unexpected geometry type: {single_polygon.geom_type}")
```
Checks the geometry type of the resultant polygon. If it's a `MultiPolygon` (which in my case happens quite often), it selects the polygon with the largest area, assuming that that largest area is one that contains the pin.
#### Simplify Polygon
```python
simplified_polygon = simplify(selected_polygon, 1.0)
```
Simplifies the polygon's shape to reduce the number of vertices, making the shape easier to handle and process, the `simplify` function comes from the `shapely` module.
#### Buffering
```python
selected_polygon = simplified_polygon.buffer(10, join_style=1).buffer(-10.0, join_style=1)
```
Applies a buffer of 10 units outward and then -10 units inward to smooth and regularise the edges, potentially cleaning up the polygon's boundary.
#### Extract Coordinates
```python
polygon = []
for x, y in zip(selected_polygon.exterior.xy[0], selected.polygons.exterior.xy[1]):
polygon.append(x)
polygon.append(y)
```
Extracts the x and y coordinates from the exterior of the selected polygon and stores them in a list where the coordinates are laid like this: `[x1, y1, x2, y2, ..., xn, yn]`, which is useful when showing the polygon in the front end as image maps.
#### Convert Polygon to Mask
```python
new_mask = sv.polygon_to_mask(
np.array(selected_polygon.exterior.coords, dtype=np.int32),
(image.shape[1], image.shape[0]),
)
```
Finally, converts the simplified polygon back into a mask format with the original image's dimensions.
### Returns
- **new_mask**: The refined mask derived from the largest or simplified polygon.
- **polygon**: The coordinates of the simplified polygon.
### Some results

In this image, it is possible to see how in the original cutout there was an extra bit of image that does not belong to the pin badge, with the refining function we got rid of it.

The refining function not only helps in removing the unwanted bits of the image but also helps in removing empty spaces that should not be there.

However, the benefits of the refining function is not always visible, as shown above.
## Front-end
Now, on to the front-end, where most of the time was invested.
### A new `view` endpoint
I added a new endpoint to my FastAPI app, this endpoint serves the existing masks rendered into an HTML that will show the original image along with an [HTML `map` element](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/map):
```python
@app.get("/view/")
def get_view(request: Request):
existing_cutouts = load_selected_cutouts()
return templates.TemplateResponse(
"view.html.jinja",
{
"request": request,
"imageWidth": og_image.width,
"imageHeight": og_image.height,
"existing_cutouts": existing_cutouts,
"image": turns_image_to_base64(og_image),
},
)
```
### The `view.html.jinja` template:
The template is quite simple since most of the interactivity and functionality is in the JavaScript code that I will explain later:
```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<!-- Code omitted for brevity -->
</head>
<body>
<img src="{{image}}" alt="Enamel Pins Collection" id="canvasMapContainer" usemap="#pinmap">
<map name="pinmap" id="pinmap">
{%- for cutout in existing_cutouts %}
<area shape="poly" coords="{{cutout.polygon | join(',')}}"
data-name="{{cutout.name}}"
{%- if cutout.description %}
data-description="{{cutout.description}}"
{%- endif %}
alt="{{cutout.name}}" data-key="{{cutout.uuid}}" href="#">
{%- endfor %}
</map>
<!-- Modal -->
<dialog id="modal">
<article>
<header>
<h3 id="infoPinNameModal"></h3>
</header>
<p id="infoPinDescriptionModal"></p>
</article>
</dialog>
<!-- Tooltip -->
<div id="tooltip" style="display: none;">
<article>
<header><h3 id="infoPinNameTooltip"></h3></header>
<p id="infoPinDescriptionTooltip" style="display: none;"></p>
</article>
</div>
<script>
/* Functionality described below */
</script>
</body>
</html>
```
There are five key pieces to this app:
- The `img` tag with `canvasMapContainer` as id. This image will show the image containing all the pins. This image is the same I have been working with across these series of posts. The tag has `src="{{image}}"` where the image is provided via the server as a base46 image. Another thing to note about this image tag is that it has the property `usemap` set to `"#pinmap"`, this lets the browser know that there is an image map attached to this image.
- The `map` tag contains areas that correspond to different parts of the enamel pin canvas, notice how the map’s `name` property matches the value set as `usemap` in the image above. These values are set dynamically at render time, the loop `{%- for cutout in existing_cutouts %}` allows us to create an `area` element with information such as polygon coordinates, name and descriptions for each of the pins.
- A `dialog` tag with `modal` as id. This element is used to display more detailed information about a selected pin. This element is hidden by default and only shown whenever a user clicks on a pin.
- A `div` that works as a floating tooltip that displays basic information about the pin over which the user is hovering the cursor. Just like the modal dialog above, this tooltip is hidden initially and shown on certain interactions defined in the script below.
- The fifth element is a `script` that orchestrates the whole functionality of the app, it requires more than a simple paragraph to explain its functionality, continue reading to learn more about it.
### The app’s logic
**Dependencies**
1. **jQuery**: A fast, small, and feature-rich JavaScript library, some people may think it is quite outdated, however, it simplifies things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, and even animation.
2. **ImageMapster**: A jQuery plugin that provides interactive image maps functionality. It allows images to be used with areas that can be manipulated and interacted with in various ways.
**Functionality**
Everything happens after the document has been loaded, inside a `$(document).ready(function() { });` definition.
**Modal and Tooltip Interaction**:
The script initialises variables for modal and tooltip elements, as well as several configuration variables for classes and animation timing.
```jsx
const $modal = $("#modal");
const isOpenClass = "modal-is-open";
const openingClass = "modal-is-opening";
const closingClass = "modal-is-closing";
const scrollbarWidthCssVar = "--pico-scrollbar-width";
const animationDuration = 400; // ms
const padding = 10;
const $tooltip = $("#tooltip");
const $infoPinNameTooltip = $("#infoPinNameTooltip");
const $infoPinNameModal = $("#infoPinNameModal");
const $canvasMapContainer = $("#canvasMapContainer");
let visibleModal = null;
```
It defines functions to toggle, open, and close the modal. The modal can be opened or closed either by clicking on an area of the image map or using the Escape key.
```jsx
// Toggle modal
const toggleModal = () => {
if (!$modal.length) return;
$modal[0].open ? closeModal() : openModal();
};
// Open modal
const openModal = () => {
$("html").addClass(isOpenClass).addClass(openingClass);
setTimeout(() => {
visibleModal = $modal;
$("html").removeClass(openingClass);
}, animationDuration);
$modal[0].showModal();
};
// Close modal
const closeModal = () => {
visibleModal = null;
$("html").addClass(closingClass);
setTimeout(() => {
$("html").removeClass(closingClass).removeClass(isOpenClass);
$("html").css(scrollbarWidthCssVar, '');
$modal[0].close();
}, animationDuration);
};
// Close with a click outside
$(document).on("click", (event) => {
if (visibleModal === null) return;
const isClickInside = $(visibleModal).find("article").has(event.target).length > 0;
if (!isClickInside) closeModal();
});
// Close with Esc key
$(document).on("keydown", (event) => {
if (event.key === "Escape" && visibleModal) {
closeModal();
}
});
```
**Interactive Image Map Setup**
The image map is initialized with the ImageMapster plugin, which is configured to not allow selection (highlighting) of map areas but to react to mouse events – [this plugin’s documentation](https://jamietre.github.io/ImageMapster/reference/configuration-reference/) is top-notch.
```jsx
$canvasMapContainer.mapster({
enableAutoResizeSupport: true,
autoResize: true,
isSelectable: false,
stroke: false,
strokeColor: '00FF00',
strokeWidth: 5,
mapKey: 'data-key',
fillOpacity: 0.0,
// ....
```
On clicking an image map area, the script fetches the area's data attributes (like name), updates the modal's content, and toggles the modal's visibility.
```jsx
onClick: function (data) {
$infoPinNameModal.text(data.e.target.dataset.name);
toggleModal();
}
```
On mouseover, the tooltip's content is updated based on the hovered area's data attributes, and its position is dynamically calculated to appear near the cursor but adjusted to avoid overflowing the viewport.
```jsx
onMouseout: function() {
$tooltip.hide();
},
onMouseover: function(data) {
// ... see below for the dynamic positioning
```
**Dynamic Positioning**:
The tooltip's position is calculated based on the coordinates of the hovered area. The script ensures that the tooltip does not overflow the window edges by adjusting its position relative to the image map area's boundaries.
Position calculations take into account the current scroll position and the tooltip's dimensions to ensure it is always visible.
```jsx
const coords = $(this).attr('coords').split(',').map(coord => parseInt(coord, 10));
const xCoords = coords.filter((_, i) => i % 2 === 0);
const yCoords = coords.filter((_, i) => i % 2 === 1);
const x1 = Math.min(...xCoords);
const y1 = Math.min(...yCoords);
const x2 = Math.max(...xCoords);
const y2 = Math.max(...yCoords);
const centerX = (x1 + x2) / 2;
$infoPinNameTooltip.text(data.e.target.dataset.name);
const infoWidth = $tooltip.width();
const infoHeight = $tooltip.height();
let positionX = "centre";
if (x1 - infoWidth - padding < 0) {
positionX = "left";
} else if (x2 + infoWidth + padding > $canvasMapContainer.width()) {
positionX = "right";
}
let positionY = "top";
if (y1 - infoHeight - padding < $(window).scrollTop()) {
positionY = "bottom";
}
const positionXmap = {
"left": x2 + padding,
"centre": centerX - infoWidth / 2,
"right": x1 - infoWidth - padding
};
const positionYmap = {
"top": y1 - padding - infoHeight,
"bottom": y2 + padding
};
$tooltip.css({
top: positionYmap[positionY],
left: positionXmap[positionX],
}).show();
```
In a real-world production app, this script probably should exist in its own file, however, as this is just a toy project, it is currently inlined along with the HTML code.
## Conclusion
This project has been an enriching learning experience, and although the results haven't fully met my expectations yet, I believe it's time for a pause. Juggling multiple interests and responsibilities, including learning, writing, and teaching, demands that I prioritise my commitments.

> A game is the complete exploration of freedom within a restrictive environment.
**_Set Your Goals_**
Before you start learning game development, it's crucial to define your goals. Set a clear set of goals in front of you before starting the development of games. Its involves
- What kind of game do you have in mind?
- Do you want to make 2D games or 3D games?
- Which type of games do you wish to design; for mobile, console, or perhaps for the PC?
By having a clear vision of what you want to achieve, you can work on your learning process and on the specific skills and tools needed for your chosen path.
**_Choose Your Game Engine_**
Game engines are the backbone of game development. They help facilitate and define how your creative visions will be implemented. Some of the best game engine out there are [Unity3D](https://unity.com/), [Unreal](https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US), and [Godot](https://godotengine.org/). All of which comes set of features, extensive documentation, and a vibrant community. Spent more time to test the various engines available so as to determine the most appropriate one depending on the on the persons style and the intended plan. You can skip this step for small game projects.
**_Explore Game Art_**
To bring your game worlds to life, learning concepts like concepts of Sprite, 3D modeling & sculpting, animation, texturing and Shader system is a valuable skill set. Dive into the world of software like [Blender](https://www.blender.org/), or [Maya](https://www.autodesk.com/in) and start creating your own 3D assets. Learn the basics of modeling, texturing, and rigging. Additionally, mastering animation techniques will allow you to give movement and personality to your creations, making your games even more immersive and visually stunning.
**_Learn the Basics of Programming_**
I can agree with the fact that game engines facilitate the game development but it’s always better to know programming basics. Familiarize yourself with programming languages such as C# (for Unity), C++ (for Unreal Engine), or Python (for Godot). You can even try Block Coding. Besides, there are numerous video tutorials, articles, and online courses you are try if you’re starting your journey. Always practice coding everyday at least for some time to maintain a strong knowledge of what you are doing and to build your confidence.
**_Start Small and Prototype_**
Game development can be overwhelming, especially for beginners. To avoid getting lost in the complexity, start with small projects and prototypes. Simple games like Pong or Breakout are excellent starting points. Prototyping allows you to experiment, learn, and iterate quickly, giving you a taste of the game development process without feeling overwhelmed.
**_Embrace the Art of Game Design_**
Game development is more than writing programs and compiling a series of coding languages, it is about interesting games. Dive into the world of game design, where you can unleash your creativity and make games that truly engage players.
**_Join the Community_**
The game development community is a treasure of knowledge, support, and inspiration. Engage with fellow game developers through forums, social media, and local meetups. Participate in game jams, where you'll collaborate with others to create games within a limited timeframe. Sharing your work (best when shared with me), receiving feedback, and learning from experienced developers will accelerate your growth and keep you motivated.
**_Never Stop Learning_**
Game development is a continuously evolving field. New technologies, techniques, and trends emerge regularly. Stay updated by following industry blogs (Like this blog), attending conferences, and experimenting with new tools and frameworks. Remember, learning is a lifelong journey, and every step you take will bring you closer to becoming a game development wizard.

1,897,180 | PageRequest | PageRequest, Spring Data JPA'nın veri kümesini sayfalara bölmek ve sıralamak için kullandığı bir... | 0 | 2024-06-22T17:19:56 | https://dev.to/mustafacam/pagerequest-52ob | `PageRequest`, Spring Data JPA'nın veri kümesini sayfalara bölmek ve sıralamak için kullandığı bir sınıftır. Sayfalama, büyük veri kümeleriyle çalışırken performansı artırmak ve kullanıcılara daha iyi bir deneyim sunmak için önemli bir tekniktir. Sayfalama, tüm veri kümesini tek seferde yüklemek yerine, verileri belirli büyüklükteki parçalara (sayfalara) bölerek yükler.
### PageRequest ve Sayfalamanın Faydaları
1. **Performans İyileştirmesi**:
- Büyük veri kümeleriyle çalışırken, tüm verileri tek seferde yüklemek veritabanı ve uygulama performansını olumsuz etkileyebilir. Sayfalama, sadece ihtiyaç duyulan verileri yükleyerek bu sorunu azaltır.
2. **Bellek Kullanımı**:
- Tüm veri kümesini bellek üzerinde tutmak yerine, sadece istenen sayfayı bellek üzerinde tutarak bellek kullanımını optimize eder.
3. **Kullanıcı Deneyimi**:
- Kullanıcılara daha hızlı yanıt süreleri sunar. Kullanıcılar genellikle tüm veri kümesini görmek istemezler; bunun yerine verileri sayfalar halinde görmek daha kullanışlıdır.
4. **Sıralama**:
- Verileri belirli bir alana göre sıralama imkanı sunar. Örneğin, ürünleri fiyatlarına göre artan veya azalan sırada gösterebilirsiniz.
### `PageRequest` Kullanımı
Kod örneğimizde `PageRequest`'in nasıl kullanıldığını inceleyelim:
```java
public Set<ProductResponse> getAll(ProductSearchRequest request) {
Specification<Product> productSpecification = ProductSpecification.initProductSpecification(request);
// Sayfalama ve sıralama için PageRequest oluşturulması
PageRequest pageRequest = PageRequest.of(request.getPage(), request.getSize(), Sort.by(Sort.Direction.ASC, "amount"));
// Sayfalama ve spesifikasyon ile ürünlerin getirilmesi
Page<Product> products = productRepository.findAll(productSpecification, pageRequest);
log.info("db'den getirildi. product size:{}", products.getSize());
return ProductConverter.toResponse(products.stream().toList());
}
```
### Açıklama
1. **PageRequest Oluşturulması**:
```java
PageRequest pageRequest = PageRequest.of(request.getPage(), request.getSize(), Sort.by(Sort.Direction.ASC, "amount"));
```
- `PageRequest.of(int page, int size, Sort sort)` metodu, belirli bir sayfa numarası (`page`), sayfa başına kayıt sayısı (`size`) ve sıralama kriteri (`sort`) ile bir `PageRequest` nesnesi oluşturur.
- `request.getPage()`: Hangi sayfanın yükleneceğini belirtir (0 tabanlı indeks).
- `request.getSize()`: Sayfa başına kaç kaydın yükleneceğini belirtir.
- `Sort.by(Sort.Direction.ASC, "amount")`: Kayıtların `amount` alanına göre artan sırada sıralanacağını belirtir. Bu, ürünleri fiyatlarına göre artan sırada sıralar.
2. **Veritabanı Sorgusu**:
```java
Page<Product> products = productRepository.findAll(productSpecification, pageRequest);
```
- `productRepository.findAll(Specification spec, Pageable pageable)` metodu, belirli bir spesifikasyona ve sayfalama kriterlerine göre veritabanından kayıtları getirir.
- Bu örnekte, `productSpecification` ve `pageRequest` kullanılarak, belirli bir sayfaya ait ürünler `amount` alanına göre sıralanmış olarak getirilir.
3. **Sonuçların Dönüşümü**:
```java
return ProductConverter.toResponse(products.stream().toList());
```
- Veritabanından getirilen `Product` nesneleri `ProductResponse` nesnelerine dönüştürülür ve set olarak döner.
### Özet
`PageRequest`, Spring Data JPA'nın veri kümesini sayfalara bölmek ve sıralamak için kullandığı bir sınıftır. Bu, büyük veri kümeleriyle çalışırken performansı artırmak, bellek kullanımını optimize etmek ve kullanıcılara daha iyi bir deneyim sunmak için önemli bir tekniktir. `PageRequest` kullanarak, sadece belirli bir sayfadaki kayıtları yükleyebilir ve verileri belirli bir alana göre sıralayabilirsiniz. | mustafacam | |

`JpaRepository`, Spring Data JPA tarafından sağlanan ve JPA (Java Persistence API) tabanlı veri erişim katmanını kolaylaştırmak için kullanılan bir arayüzdür. `JpaRepository` arayüzü, CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) işlemlerini gerçekleştirmek için çeşitli metodlar sağlar. Bu arayüz, `PagingAndSortingRepository` arayüzünü genişletir, bu nedenle veri kümesini sayfalandırma ve sıralama desteği de sunar.
#### Sağladığı Metodlar
`JpaRepository` arayüzü, veritabanı işlemleri için bir dizi hazır metod içerir:
- **save(S entity)**: Verilen varlığı kaydeder veya günceller.
- **findById(ID id)**: Verilen kimlik değeri ile varlığı bulur.
- **findAll()**: Tüm varlıkları döner.
- **findAll(Pageable pageable)**: Tüm varlıkları sayfalandırılmış biçimde döner.
- **deleteById(ID id)**: Verilen kimlik değeri ile varlığı siler.
- **count()**: Varlıkların toplam sayısını döner.
- **existsById(ID id)**: Verilen kimlik değeri ile bir varlığın olup olmadığını kontrol eder.
#### Kullanım
`JpaRepository` arayüzünü kullanarak, veritabanı işlemleri için gerekli temel metodları kolayca ekleyebilirsiniz. İşte bir örnek:
```java
package com.example.demo.repository;
import com.example.demo.model.Product;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
@Repository
public interface ProductRepository extends JpaRepository<Product, Long> {
// Ekstra sorgular buraya eklenebilir
}
```
### JpaSpecificationExecutor
`JpaSpecificationExecutor`, Spring Data JPA tarafından sağlanan ve JPA kriter tabanlı sorgularını gerçekleştirmek için kullanılan bir arayüzdür. Bu arayüz, dinamik ve esnek sorgular oluşturmayı sağlar.
#### Sağladığı Metodlar
`JpaSpecificationExecutor` arayüzü, kriter tabanlı sorgular için çeşitli metodlar içerir:
- **findAll(Specification<T> spec)**: Verilen spesifikasyona uygun tüm varlıkları bulur.
- **findAll(Specification<T> spec, Pageable pageable)**: Verilen spesifikasyona uygun tüm varlıkları sayfalandırılmış biçimde bulur.
- **count(Specification<T> spec)**: Verilen spesifikasyona uygun varlıkların sayısını döner.
- **exists(Specification<T> spec)**: Verilen spesifikasyona uygun varlıkların olup olmadığını kontrol eder.
#### Kullanım
`JpaSpecificationExecutor` arayüzü, dinamik sorgular oluşturmak için kullanılır. Bu sorgular, `Specification` arayüzü kullanılarak tanımlanır. İşte bir örnek:
```java
package com.example.demo.repository;
import com.example.demo.model.Product;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaSpecificationExecutor;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
@Repository
public interface ProductRepository extends JpaRepository<Product, Long>, JpaSpecificationExecutor<Product> {
// Ekstra sorgular ve spesifikasyonlar buraya eklenebilir
}
```
### Specification Kullanımı
`Specification` arayüzü, kriter tabanlı sorgular oluşturmak için kullanılır. İşte bir örnek:
```java
package com.example.demo.specification;
import com.example.demo.model.Product;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.Specification;
public class ProductSpecification {
public static Specification<Product> hasName(String name) {
return (root, query, criteriaBuilder) ->
criteriaBuilder.equal(root.get("name"), name);
}
public static Specification<Product> hasPrice(BigDecimal price) {
return (root, query, criteriaBuilder) ->
criteriaBuilder.equal(root.get("price"), price);
}
}
```
Bu spesifikasyonlar daha sonra repository metodlarında kullanılabilir:
```java
import com.example.demo.model.Product;
import com.example.demo.repository.ProductRepository;
import com.example.demo.specification.ProductSpecification;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import java.math.BigDecimal;
import java.util.List;
@Service
public class ProductService {
@Autowired
private ProductRepository productRepository;
public List<Product> findProductsByNameAndPrice(String name, BigDecimal price) {
return productRepository.findAll(
Specification.where(ProductSpecification.hasName(name))
.and(ProductSpecification.hasPrice(price))
);
}
}
```
Bu şekilde, `JpaRepository` ve `JpaSpecificationExecutor` arayüzleri ile CRUD işlemleri ve dinamik sorgular için güçlü ve esnek bir veri erişim katmanı oluşturabilirsiniz. | mustafacam | |

Closures A closure is the combination of a function bundled together... | 0 | 2024-06-22T17:13:22 | https://dev.to/rajatoberoi/javascript-main-concepts-in-depth-part-2-2mfn | beginners, tutorial, node, codenewbie | [click for Part 1](https://dev.to/rajatoberoi/javascript-main-concepts-edg)
## 6. Closures
A closure is the combination of a function bundled together (enclosed) with references to its surrounding state (the lexical environment).
- A closure gives you access to an outer function's scope from an inner function.
```
let b = 3;
function impureFunc(a) {
return a + b;
}
```
In order to call a function in our code, JS interpreter needs to know about the function it self and any other data from the surroundings environment that it depends on.
Everything needs to be neatly closed up into a box before it can be fed into the machine.

A pure function is a function where the output is determined solely by its input values, without observable side effects. Given the same inputs, a pure function will always return the same output.
```
//Stored in call stack
function pureFunc(a, b) {
return a + b;
}
```
Stack Memory:
A: 2
B: 3
Call Stack:
pureFunc(2, 3)
An impure function is a function that interacts with or modifies some state outside its own scope, which means its output can vary even with the same inputs.
- In below example, in order to interpreter to call this function and also know the value of this free variable, it creates a closure and store them in a place in memory from where they can be access later. That area of memory is called the Heap.
- Call stack memory is short lived, and heap memory can keep data indefinitely. Later memory gets freed using GC.
- So a closure is a combination of a function with it's outer state or lexical environment.
- Closure requires more memory than pure functions.
```
let b = 3;//free variable
function impureFunc(a) {
return a + b;
}
```
- Impure functions often rely on external state. Closures can encapsulate and manage this state within a function scope, making it possible to create stateful functions without resorting to global variables.
```
function createCounter() {
let count = 0; // This is the external state
return function() {
count += 1; // Impure function: modifies the external state
return count;
};
}
const counter = createCounter();
console.log(counter()); // 1
console.log(counter()); // 2
console.log(counter()); // 3
```
- The count variable is encapsulated in the closure created by createCounter.
- This allows the count variable to persist between function calls, while keeping it private and preventing it from being modified directly from the outside.
So,
- Closures are often used in JavaScript to create functions with "private" variables or to maintain state across multiple function calls.
Memory Management and Closures:
- In JavaScript, closures involve storing function references along with their surrounding state. This state is stored in memory, typically in the heap, as it needs to persist beyond the scope of the function execution.
- When a function with a closure is no longer referenced, the memory it occupies can be garbage collected (GC). However, as long as there are references to the closure, the variables in its scope will not be freed.
Use Case of closure: Memoization
The Fibonacci sequence is a classic example where memoization can significantly improve performance. The naive recursive approach has exponential time complexity due to repeated calculations of the same values.
Naive Recursive Fibonacci Function(inefficient):
```
function findFabonacciRecursive(number) {
if (number < 2) {
return number;
}
return findFabonacciRecursive(number - 1) + findFabonacciRecursive(number - 2);
}
console.log(findFabonacciRecursive(10)); // 55
```
In this approach, the same values of fibonacci(n) are recalculated multiple times, leading to inefficiency. By memoizing the results of the function calls, we can avoid redundant calculations and improve the performance.
Memoized Fibonacci Function:
```
// Memoized Fibonacci function using a closure
function fibonacciMaster() {
let cache = {};
return function fib(n) {
if (n in cache) {
return cache[n];
} else {
if (n < 2) {
cache[n] = n; // Cache the base case result
return n;
} else {
cache[n] = fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2);
return cache[n];
}
}
};
}
const fasterFib = fibonacciMaster();
console.log(fasterFib(10)); // 55
console.log(fasterFib(50)); // 12586269025
```
## 7. JavaScript Let vs Var vs Const
Using let: It has block scope. So it is not accessible outside of a block i.e. curly braces {}
```
function start() {
for(let counter = 0; counter < 5; counter++) {
console.log(counter);
}
//console.log(counter)//ReferenceError: counter is not defined
}
start();
```
Output:
0
1
2
3
4
Using var: It has function scope. It's scope is not limited to the block in which it is defined but is limited to the function scope.
```
function start() {
for(var counter = 0; counter < 5; counter++) {
console.log(counter);
}
console.log(counter)//last value of counter after the for loop ends i.e. value 5
}
start();
```
Output:
0
1
2
3
4
5
Another example of var:
```
function start() {
for(var counter = 0; counter < 5; counter++) {
if(true) {
var color = 'red';
}
}
console.log(color)
}
start();
```
- When we use var outside of a function, it creates a global variable and attaches that global variable window object in browser. variables declared with let (or const) do not get attached to the global object.

- window object is central, suppose we are using a third party library and it has a variable with a same name and so that variable can override our variable. Hence, we should avoid adding stuff to window object.
So, Avoid using var keyword.
Key Differences Between var and let:
Scope:
- var is function-scoped, meaning it is accessible throughout the entire function in which it is declared.
- let(& const) is block-scoped, meaning it is only accessible within the block (enclosed by {}) where it is declared.
Hoisting: Check 8. headline to understand hoisting further.
- Variables declared with var are hoisted to the top of their scope and initialized with undefined.
- Variables declared with let(& const) are also hoisted, but they are not initialized. Accessing them before declaration results in a ReferenceError.
Example Illustrating Scope and Hoisting:
```
function testVar() {
console.log(varVar); // Outputs: undefined (due to hoisting)
var varVar = 'I am var';
console.log(varVar); // Outputs: 'I am var'
}
function testLet() {
// console.log(letVar); // Would throw ReferenceError (temporal dead zone)
let letVar = 'I am let';
console.log(letVar); // Outputs: 'I am let'
}
testVar();
testLet();
```
Const keyword:
- The const keyword in JavaScript is used to declare variables that are constant, meaning their value cannot be reassigned after they are initialized.
- The binding (the reference to the value) of a const variable cannot be changed, but this does not mean the value itself is immutable. For example, if the value is an object or an array, its properties or elements can still be modified.
```
const y = 5;
// y = 10; // TypeError: Assignment to constant variable.
const obj = { name: 'Alice' };
obj.name = 'Bob'; // This is allowed
console.log(obj.name); // Outputs: 'Bob'
```
## 8. Hoisting
In JavaScript, hoisting is a concept where variable and function declarations are moved to the top of their containing scope during the compilation phase, before the code is executed. This means that regardless of where variables and functions are declared within a scope, they are treated as if they are declared at the top.
Scope in JavaScript refers to the visibility and accessibility of variables, functions, and objects in particular parts of your code during runtime
Variable Hoisting:
- When variables are declared using var, let, or const, the declaration (not the initialization) is hoisted to the top of the scope.
- However, only the declaration is hoisted, not the initialization. This means that variables declared with var are initialized with undefined whereas variables declared with let or const are not initialized until the actual line of code where the declaration is made.
- Variables declared with let or const are hoisted to the top of their block scope, but they are not initialized until their actual declaration is evaluated during runtime. This is known as the "temporal dead zone" (TDZ).
```
console.log(y); // ReferenceError: Cannot access 'y' before initialization
let y = 10;
```
Function Hoisting:
- Function declarations are completely hoisted, including both the function name and the function body.
- This allows you to call a function before it is declared in the code.
```
foo(); // "Hello, I'm John Wick!"
function getName() {
console.log("Hello, I'm John Wick!");
}
```
- Function expressions (functions assigned to variables) are not hoisted in the same way. Only the variable declaration is hoisted, not the function initialization.
```
getName(); // Error: getName is not a function
var getName = function() {
console.log("Hello, I'm John Wick!");
};
```
## 9. IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expression)
An Immediately Invoked Function Expression (IIFE) is a function in JavaScript that runs as soon as it is defined. It is a common JavaScript pattern used to create a private scope and avoid polluting the global namespace.
Here is the basic structure of an IIFE:
```
(function() {
// Your code here
})();
```
- The function is defined within parentheses () to treat it as an expression, and it is immediately invoked with another set of parentheses ().
```
(function() {
console.log("This is an IIFE");
})();
```
Why Use IIFE?
- Avoid Global Variables: IIFEs help in avoiding global variables by creating a local scope.
- Encapsulation: They encapsulate the code, making it self-contained.
- Immediate Execution: Useful for running setup code for testing on local that should not be run again.
Examples:
With Parameters
```
(function(a, b) {
console.log(a + b);
})(5, 10);
```
Returning Values:
```
let result = (function() {
return "Hello, World!";
})();
console.log(result); // Outputs: Hello, World!
```
Using Arrow functions:
```
(() => {
console.log("This is an IIFE with arrow function");
})();
```
## Q. What does this code log out?
```
for (var counter = 0; counter < 3; counter++) {
//Closure as it depends on variable outside of it's scope.
const log = () => {
console.log(i);
}
setTimeout(log, 100);
}
```
Output:
3
3
3
- var has global scope. with var we are mutating over and over again.
- As we are using a closure, it keeps reference to counter variable in heap memory where it can be used later after timeout is achieved.
- The time the setTimeout callbacks (the log functions) execute, the counter variable in the outer scope has been incremented to 3. Thus, each log function logs the final value of counter, which is 3.
```
for (var let = 0; counter < 3; counter++) {
//Closure as it depends on variable outside of it's scope.
const log = () => {
debugger;
console.log(i);
}
setTimeout(log, 100);
}
```
Output:
0
1
2
- let is block scope. with let we are creating a variable that is scoped to for loop. i.e. it is local to the for loop and cannot be accessed outside of it.
- In case of let, closure is capturing the log function with counter variable for each iteration of loop which is 0, 1 and 2.
- Closure and Execution Context: Because let is block-scoped, each log function captures a unique counter variable from its respective iteration of the loop. Therefore, when each log function executes after 100 milliseconds, it logs the value of counter as it existed at the time of its creation.

## Demo
{% embed https://www.youtube.com/embed/dm1YYX46k3Q %}




## Twilio and AI
I utilized the Cohere API to generate AI-driven content, such as daily motivational quotes and personalized workout plans based on user input. When a user fills out the form, a workout plan is dynamically generated, including meal suggestions.
For communication, I integrated the Twilio API to send messages. Upon completing their workout, users can enter details in a specific format like "10 10 50 200". Twilio then sends this data to a Flask server via its API. The Flask server interprets the message to update the dashboard with details such as 10 reps, 10 sets, 50 minutes, and 200 calories burned.
I could not have achieved this functionality without Twilio Kudos to Twilio team.
Also I had already written [Blog](https://devspotlight.hashnode.dev/message-delivery-with-twilio-api-and-google-sheets) around Twilio so I had little experience with Twilio API and Whatsapp business API.
I wanted to use Twilio Whatsapp business API but time was less as it takes verification so I sticked to using Whatsapp Sandbox.

1,897,168 | Scalability in React Native: Ensuring Future- Proof Applications | Scalability in React Native: Ensuring Future-Proof Applications Scalability is a critical aspect of... | 0 | 2024-06-22T17:00:13 | https://dev.to/nmaduemmmanuel/scalability-in-react-native-ensuring-future-proof-applications-569f | **Scalability in React Native: Ensuring Future-Proof Applications**
Scalability is a critical aspect of modern application development, especially when it comes to mobile apps built with React Native. Scalability refers to the ability of an app to handle a growing number of users or transactions without compromising performance or user experience.
**Why is Scalability Important in React Native?**
React Native is a popular framework for developing cross-platform mobile applications using JavaScript and React. Its importance for scalability lies in several factors:
- **Code Reusability**: React Native allows developers to write once and deploy on both iOS and Android platforms, which means scalability needs to be considered for multiple ecosystems.
- **Performance**: As the user base grows, the app must maintain its performance without lag or crashes.
- **Maintenance**: Scalable code is easier to maintain and update, which is crucial for the longevity of an app.
- **Resource Management**: Efficient use of device resources such as memory and CPU is essential for scalability.
**Coding Examples for Scalable Practices in React Native:**
To ensure scalability in your React Native applications, consider the following practices:
*1. State Management:*
Using a robust state management solution like Redux or Context API can help manage state more efficiently in large-scale applications.
```javascript
import { createStore } from 'redux';
// Action
const increment = () => {
return {
type: 'INCREMENT'
};
};
// Reducer
const counter = (state = 0, action) => {
switch (action.type) {
case 'INCREMENT':
return state + 1;
default:
return state;
}
};
// Store
let store = createStore(counter);
// Display it in the console
store.subscribe(() => console.log(store.getState()));
// Dispatch
store.dispatch(increment());
```
*2. Component Optimization:*
Optimizing components with `React.memo` and `shouldComponentUpdate` can prevent unnecessary re-renders.
```javascript
import React, { memo } from 'react';
const MyComponent = memo(function MyComponent(props) {
/* render using props */
});
```
*3. Lazy Loading:*
Lazy loading components with `React.lazy` and `Suspense` can improve initial load times and overall performance.
```javascript
import React, { Suspense, lazy } from 'react';
const LazyComponent = lazy(() => import('./LazyComponent'));
function MyComponent() {
return (
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
);
}
```
*4. Efficient Networking:*
Using libraries like Axios for network requests can help manage API calls more effectively.
```javascript
import axios from 'axios';
axios.get('/user?ID=12345')
.then(function (response) {
// handle success
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
// handle error
console.log(error);
});
```
**Advanced Strategies for Scalability in React Native**
To further enhance the scalability of your React Native applications, consider implementing the following advanced strategies:
*5. Modular Architecture:*
Designing your app with a modular architecture can greatly improve scalability. It allows individual features or components to be developed, tested, and debugged independently.
```javascript
// Example of a modular file structure
src/
|-- components/
| |-- Button.js
| |-- Card.js
|-- screens/
| |-- HomeScreen.js
| |-- ProfileScreen.js
|-- utils/
| |-- api.js
| |-- helpers.js
```
*6. Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD):*
Implementing CI/CD pipelines can streamline the development process, making it easier to scale your team and codebase.
```yaml
# Example of a CI/CD configuration file for React Native
name: Build and Deploy
on:
push:
branches: [ main ]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Install Dependencies
run: npm install
- name: Run Tests
run: npm test
- name: Build App
run: npm run build
deploy:
needs: build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Deploy to App Store and Google Play
run: ./deploy.sh
```
*7. Performance Monitoring and Analytics:*
Integrating performance monitoring tools like Flipper or Reactotron can help identify bottlenecks as your app scales.
```javascript
// Example of integrating Flipper in a React Native app
if (__DEV__) {
const { connectToDevTools } = require('react-devtools-core');
connectToDevTools({
hostname: 'localhost',
port: 8097,
});
}
```
*8. Scalable Backend Services:*
Ensure that your backend services are scalable to match the growth of your front-end application. Consider serverless architectures or containerization for backend scalability.
```javascript
// Example of using AWS Lambda for a serverless backend function
exports.handler = async (event) => {
// Your serverless function logic here
};
```
**Conclusion:**
Scalability is not an afterthought; it's a fundamental consideration from the start of your React Native project. By adopting scalable practices early on, you ensure that your application remains robust, performant, and maintainable as it grows. Remember that scalability is about preparing for success—anticipating more users, more data, and more interactions. With these scalable practices in place, your React Native app will be well-positioned to thrive in an ever-evolving mobile landscape. | nmaduemmmanuel | |

1,897,163 | Guia Básico para tratar dados com Pandas em Python | Olá, esse guia tem como objetivo apresentar algumas formas de tratamento de dados com a biblioteca... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:42:01 | https://dev.to/rvinicius396g/guia-basico-para-tratar-dados-com-pandas-em-python-4f2f | pandas, python, dataframe, datascience | Olá, esse guia tem como objetivo apresentar algumas formas de tratamento de dados com a biblioteca pandas do Python, umas das mais utilizadas por profissionais na área de dados.
Primeiro, vamos fazer a importação das respectivas bibliotecas que utilizaremos
`
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pylab as plt
#Agora, faremos a leitura da nossa base de dados
url= "https://cf-courses-data.s3.us.cloud-object-storage.appdomain.cloud/IBMDeveloperSkillsNetwork-DA0101EN-SkillsNetwork/labs/Data%20files/auto.csv"
`
Note que, ao fazermos a importação da base de dados, a mesma não tem cabeçalho, então para criar o cabeçalho faremos o processo abaixo:
`
#Criacao do cabeçalho em uma lista com seus respectivos valores
cabecalho = ["symboling","normalized-losses","make","fuel-type","aspiration", "num-of-doors","body-style",
"drive-wheels","engine-location","wheel-base", "length","width","height","curb-weight","engine-type",
"num-of-cylinders", "engine-size","fuel-system","bore","stroke","compression-ratio","horsepower",
"peak-rpm","city-mpg","highway-mpg","price"]
#Adicionando o cabeçalho ao dataset que não tem cabeçalho + leitura do dataset no formato csv
df = pd.read_csv(url, names = cabecalho)
`
Nesse exemplo, o valores pendentes vão estar como “?” (interrogação). Alguma dúvidas podem surgir: o que fazer com esses valores que não vieram ? Como tratar ? Posso deletar ? …
A resposta é: Depende.. Existe algumas técnicas que podemos utilizar:
- Apagar a coluna completa que está sem as informações;
- Apagar a linha completa que está sem as informações;
- Substituir os dados pela média/frequência/etc;
Essas são algumas, existem várias outras forma de lidarmos com esses dados pendentes
`
#Para visualizar alguns dados,usarmos o comando abaixo
df.head()
`
Note que, como havia informado anteriormente, alguns dados pendentes estão como “?” , agora, vamos substituir esses valores por NaN (Not a number)

`
import numpy as np
#O comando abaixo substituirá ? por NaN;
# O parâmetro inplace = True, salva as alterações realizadas no dataframe que estamos usando (df)
df.replace('?', np.nan, inplace = True)
#Ao executar o head(), você notará que o símbolo de interrogação foi substituido por NaN
df.head()
`
## Tratando (substituindo) os dados pendentes
No algoritmo abaixo, iremos substituir os valores NaN da coluna normalized-losses pela média, depois que convertermos para o tipo float
`avg_norm_loss = df["normalized-losses"].astype("float").mean(axis=0)
print("Média da normalized-losses:", avg_norm_loss)
#substituir os valores NaN da coluna normalized-losses pela média
df["normalized-losses"].replace(np.nan, avg_norm_loss, inplace=True)
`
E assim podemos dar prosseguimento para todas as outras colunas que tiverem informações pendentes. Algumas dúvidas podem surgir, porque foi feita a conversão da normalized-losses para float ? A respota é: Normalized-losses é do tipo objetct, que seria semelhante a “string”, dessa forma não é possível realizarmos operações matemáticas nesse tipo de objeto, por isso fizemos a conversão.
`avg_bore=df['bore'].astype('float').mean(axis=0)
print("Média da bore:", avg_bore)
#Substituindo valores NaN da coluna Bore pela média
df["bore"].replace(np.nan, avg_bore, inplace=True)
#Substituindo valores NaN da coluna stroke pela média
stroke_mean = df['stroke'].astype('float').mean(axis=0)
df['stroke'].replace(np.nan, stroke_mean, inplace=True)
avg_horsepower = df['horsepower'].astype('float').mean(axis=0)
#Substituindo os valores NaN da coluna 'horsepower' pela média
df['horsepower'].replace(np.nan, avg_horsepower, inplace=True)
`
No exemplo abaixo, vamos deletar todos os registros (linhas) que não tem dados da coluna price:
`df.dropna(subset=["price"], axis=0, inplace=True)`
Algumas informações que podem ser importantes:
- axis = 0 >> O zero refere-se as linha .\. 1 refere-se as colunas
- inplace >> Salva as alterações realizadas no dataframe
## Conversão de dados
Como já foi apresentado anteriormente, outra parte fundamental do tratamento dos dados são os tipos de dados na biblioteca pandas: object, float, int,datetime, etc. Afinal, não conseguimos calcular a média de uma variável do tipo string, certo ? Então, precisamos converter o seu data type para que isso seja possível.

Para analisarmos os tipos de dados em pandas, podemos usar a função dtype
`#Verificando o datype em python
#Ela retornara o datatype de todas as variáveis (colunas) do nosso data frame
df.dtypes
# Abaixo, realizamos a conversão dos data types para float, int e atribuimos a conversão a propria
# variável para "salvar" as alterações. Passamos no parâmetro astype("valordavariável")
df[["bore", "stroke"]] = df[["bore", "stroke"]].astype("float")
df[["normalized-losses"]] = df[["normalized-losses"]].astype("int")
df[["price"]] = df[["price"]].astype("float")
df[["peak-rpm"]] = df[["peak-rpm"]].astype("float")`
Antes de fazer a conversão, sempre procure análisar o data type atual da variável com (dtypes) e analisar novamente após a conversão, para garantir que a alteração foi realizada com sucesso.
> Esse foi um guia básico e prático de como trabalhar com tratamento de dados utilizando a biblioteca Python, as informações disponibilizadas aqui foram colhidas do curso de Análise de dados com Python — IBM da Cousera, recomendo a todos que estão estudando e procurando ampliar o seu conhecimento nessa área darem uma olhada ou até mesmo realizarem o curso, que apesar de básico é muito bom ! Obrigado a todos por lerem até aqui !

Blockchain é uma tecnologia que trabalha como um sistema de... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:35:24 | https://dev.to/starch1/o-que-e-blochchain-e-como-a-tecnologia-funciona-24b0 | blockchain, begginer, programmers, braziliandevs |
### Como Blockchain Funciona?
Blockchain é uma tecnologia que trabalha como um sistema de registro distribuído e descentralizado. A tecnologia fundamentalmente cria um registro digital de transações compartilhado por uma rede de computadores. Cada transação é agrupada em blocos, que são conectados ao bloco anterior, formando uma cadeia contínua de blocos, daí o nome "blockchain". Essa estrutura permite a manutenção de um histórico imutável de transações, proporcionando transparência e confiança sem a necessidade de intervenção de autoridades superiores(Como bancos).
### Descentralização
Uma das grande vantagens do blockchain é a descentralização. Ao contrário dos sistemas tradicionais que dependem de uma entidade central para validar transações, o blockchain permite que múltiplos participantes na rede verifiquem e registrem transações. Isso melhora a segurança e a transparência, já que não há um único ponto de falha que possa comprometer toda a rede. A descentralização também promove a democratização do controle, onde todos os participantes têm acesso igual à informação e ao poder de validação.
### Redes Peer-to-Peer (P2P)
Blockchain funciona em redes peer-to-peer (P2P), onde cada nó possui uma cópia completa do registro digital. Isso elimina a necessidade de uma autoridade central e permite que transações sejam conduzidas diretamente entre os participantes da rede. As redes P2P são fundamentais para a descentralização e a resistência do blockchain, pois distribuem o poder computacional e os dados entre todos os participantes, tornando a rede mais robusta e menos suscetível a ataques.
### Proof of Work
O Proof of Work é um mecanismo usado por algumas blockchains, como o Bitcoin, para validar e processar transações. Neste processo, os nós da rede competem pra resolver problemas matemáticos complexos. O primeiro nó a resolver o problema é recompensado com criptomoedas e adiciona um novo bloco à blockchain. Esse método intensivo em recursos computacionais garante a segurança da rede. Contudo, ele também é criticado por seu alto consumo de energia e por contribuir para a centralização da mineração em áreas com eletricidade barata.
### Proof of Stake
Em resposta às limitações do Proof of Work, algumas blockchains adotaram o Proof of Stake como mecanismo de consenso. No Proof of Stake, os validadores são escolhidos com base na quantidade de criptomoeda que possuem e estão dispostos a "apostar" como garantia de seu compromisso com a rede. Esse método é mais eficiente em termos energéticos e reduz o risco de centralização, já que não depende de poder computacional para validar transações.
### Funções de Criptografia Hash
As funções de criptografia hash atual na segurança de redes blockchain. Elas transformam dados de tamanho variável em uma sequência de comprimento fixo, conhecida como hash. Isso garante que cada bloco na blockchain seja único e identificável, proporcionando integridade e segurança aos dados. Exemplo de algoritmo hash bastante usado SHA-256. Os hashes são fundamentais para a estrutura de dados do blockchain, garantindo que qualquer alteração em um bloco seja facilmente detectável.
### SHA-256 Hash
SHA-256 é um algoritmo de hash criptográfico essencial em várias blockchains, incluindo o Bitcoin. Ele gera hashes de 256 bits e é vital para garantir a segurança e a integridade da blockchain. Qualquer modificação nos dados de um bloco resulta em um hash completamente diferente, facilitando a detecção de fraudes ou alterações não autorizadas. O uso do SHA-256 contribui para a robustez do sistema, tornando as transações seguras contra tentativas de falsificação e corrupção.
### Smart Contracts
Smart contracts, são programas que executam automaticamente os termos de um contrato quando certas condições são atendidas. Eles são armazenados e executados no blockchain, o que garante transparência e imutabilidade. Os smart contracts tem potencial para revolucionar várias indústrias ao automatizar processos que tradicionalmente requerem intermediários, reduzindo custos e aumentando a eficiência.
### Casos de Uso
Além das criptomoedas, o blockchain possui uma ampla gama de aplicações potenciais. Exemplos incluem registros médicos eletrônicos que garantem privacidade e acessibilidade, cadeias de suprimentos transparentes que rastreiam produtos desde a origem até o consumidor final, e sistemas de votação eletrônica seguros que aumentam a confiança pública. A capacidade do blockchain de oferecer segurança sem intermediários tem o potencial de transformar vários segmentos. No setor financeiro, contratos inteligentes podem automatizar processos como empréstimos e seguros, enquanto em governos, podem garantir a integridade dos processos eleitorais e da administração pública.

1,897,157 | Enable Touch ID Authentication for sudo on macOS Sonoma 14.x | Operating Environment: OS: MacOS Sonoma 14.5 Device: M1 MacBook Pro ... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:22:46 | https://dev.to/siddhantkcode/enable-touch-id-authentication-for-sudo-on-macos-sonoma-14x-4d28 | macos, touchid, security, productivity | ### Operating Environment:
- **OS:** MacOS Sonoma 14.5
- **Device:** M1 MacBook Pro
## Explanation
In macOS Sonoma, a new method has been introduced to enable Touch ID when running `sudo` commands, making it more persistent across system updates. Previously, editing the `/etc/pam.d/sudo` file was necessary, but these changes would often revert after an update, requiring reconfiguration. With Sonoma, the settings can be added to a separate file `/etc/pam.d/sudo_local`, which isn't overwritten during updates, allowing Touch ID to remain enabled for `sudo` commands consistently.
## Steps to Enable Touch ID for `sudo`
### 1. Create and Edit the Configuration File
Create a new configuration file based on the template provided in macOS Sonoma.
```sh
sudo cp /etc/pam.d/sudo_local.template /etc/pam.d/sudo_local
```
Edit the newly created file with your preferred text editor:
```sh
sudo vim /etc/pam.d/sudo_local
```
In the file, locate the following line, Uncomment it by removing the `#`:
```diff
- #auth sufficient pam_tid.so
+ auth sufficient pam_tid.so
```
### Alternative Method Using `sed` and `tee`
You can achieve the same result with a single command using `sed` and `tee`:
```sh
sed -e 's/^#auth/auth/' /etc/pam.d/sudo_local.template | sudo tee /etc/pam.d/sudo_local
```
### 2. Confirm the Operation
Open a new terminal session and run a `sudo` command to test the setup:
```sh
sudo ls
```
You should be prompted to authenticate using Touch ID. If the command executes after Touch ID authentication, the setup is complete.
<img width="270" alt="Screenshot 2024-06-22 at 4 48 00 PM" src="https://gist.github.com/assets/55068936/ce9c32f4-a1e2-44bb-99e2-7a31af15309f">
### Background
Previously, enabling Touch ID for `sudo` required modifying `/etc/pam.d/sudo`, but these changes did not persist through macOS updates. By leveraging the new `/etc/pam.d/sudo_local` configuration in macOS Sonoma, we can ensure that Touch ID settings for `sudo` remain intact even after system updates.
The `/etc/pam.d/sudo` file now includes the following:
```plaintext
# sudo: auth account password session
auth include sudo_local
auth sufficient pam_smartcard.so
auth required pam_opendirectory.so
account required pam_permit.so
password required pam_deny.so
session required pam_permit.so
```
This configuration ensures that the settings in `/etc/pam.d/sudo_local` are loaded and used, maintaining Touch ID functionality for `sudo` commands.
Please note that for macOS versions earlier than Sonoma, manual editing of `/etc/pam.d/sudo` is still required to enable Touch ID for `sudo` commands. | siddhantkcode |
1,897,115 | Leave Switch Behind: The Power of Maps and Patterns in JavaScript Development | In this post, we'll explore the limitations of using switch statements in JavaScript and discuss... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:19:18 | https://dev.to/waelhabbal/leave-switch-behind-the-power-of-maps-and-patterns-in-javascript-development-2hhj | development, solidprinciples, webdev, javascript | In this post, we'll explore the limitations of using `switch` statements in JavaScript and discuss alternative approaches using maps and patterns. We'll cover how maps can be used for dynamic lookups and how patterns can be used to encapsulate complex logic.
**The Case Against Overusing Switch Statements**
While `switch` statements are efficient for simple value comparisons, they have several limitations:
* Readability: Long chains of case statements become difficult to read and debug.
* Extensibility: Adding new cases requires modifying the existing structure.
* Default Handling: The default case can become a catch-all, potentially hiding errors.
**Enter Maps: Key-Value Pairs for Dynamic Lookups**
Maps (introduced in ES6) offer a powerful alternative:
* Key-Value Pairs: Store data as associations between keys and values.
* Dynamic Lookups: Retrieve values efficiently based on keys.
* Flexibility: Easily add, remove, or modify key-value pairs without altering the core logic.
Example: User Role Permissions (Map vs. Switch)
Using Switch:
```javascript
function getUserPermissions(role) {
switch (role) {
case 'admin':
return ['read', 'write', 'delete'];
case 'editor':
return ['read', 'write'];
case 'reader':
return ['read'];
default:
return [];
}
}
```
Using Map:
```javascript
const permissionsMap = new Map([
['admin', ['read', 'write', 'delete']],
['editor', ['read', 'write']],
['reader', ['read']],
]);
function getUserPermissions(role) {
return permissionsMap.get(role) || []; // Return empty array for missing roles
}
```
**Patterns for Encapsulating Behavior**
Sometimes, complex logic within a `switch` case deserves its own reusable function. Here's how patterns come in:
* Strategy Pattern: Define an interface for different behavior types and create concrete implementations for each case.
* Command Pattern: Encapsulate actions within objects, allowing decoupled execution.
Example: Discount Calculations (Pattern vs. Switch)
Using Switch:
```javascript
function calculateDiscount(productType, quantity) {
switch (productType) {
case 'electronics':
return quantity > 5 ? 0.1 : 0.05;
case 'clothing':
return 0.1;
default:
return 0;
}
}
```
Using Strategy Pattern:
```javascript
interface DiscountStrategy {
calculateDiscount(quantity: number): number;
}
class ElectronicsDiscount implements DiscountStrategy {
calculateDiscount(quantity: number) {
return quantity > 5 ? 0.1 : 0.05;
}
}
class ClothingDiscount implements DiscountStrategy {
calculateDiscount() {
return 0.1;
}
}
function calculateDiscount(productType: string, quantity: number) {
const strategies = {
electronics: new ElectronicsDiscount(),
clothing: new ClothingDiscount(),
};
return strategies[productType]?.calculateDiscount(quantity) || 0;
}
```
**Applying SOLID Principles**
* Single Responsibility Principle: switch often mixes data logic with control flow. Maps and patterns help isolate responsibilities.
* Open/Closed Principle: Maps and patterns allow extending behavior without modifying existing code.
* Liskov Substitution Principle: Patterns like Strategy ensure interchangeable behavior based on interfaces.
* Interface Segregation Principle: Maps provide a clean interface for data lookup.
* Dependency Inversion Principle: Patterns encourage relying on abstractions (interfaces) rather than concrete implementations (switch).
Conclusion:
By embracing maps and patterns, you can improve code readability and maintainability, enhance flexibility for future changes, and adhere to SOLID principles for better design. Remember, the best approach depends on the complexity of your logic. Consider using switch for simple cases, but for more intricate scenarios, maps and patterns are more suitable alternatives. | waelhabbal |

When they occur, a... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:16:31 | https://dev.to/preciousanyi/how-to-write-an-effective-postmortem-a-use-case-example-57g8 | webdev, beginners, programming, devops | In the world of IT and web services, outages and system failures are inevitable. When they occur, a detailed postmortem is crucial for understanding what went wrong and preventing similar issues in the future. This blog post will guide you through the process of writing an effective postmortem using a real-life use case example.

## Why Write a Postmortem?
A postmortem helps teams:
- Understand the root cause of the issue.
- Document the timeline of events and actions taken.
- Identify areas for improvement and implement preventative measures.
- Communicate transparently with stakeholders about what happened and what will be done to prevent recurrence.
## Structure of a Postmortem
A well-structured postmortem includes the following sections:
- Issue Summary
- Timeline
- Root Cause and Resolution
- Corrective and Preventative Measures
Let’s dive into each section with a use case example.
## Use Case Example
Scenario: An e-commerce website experienced an outage on June 12, 2024. Here’s how the postmortem was structured and written.
### Issue Summary
Duration of the Outage:
Start: June 12, 2024, 09:00 AM (WAT)
End: June 12, 2024, 11:30 AM (WAT)
**Impact:**
The e-commerce website was completely inaccessible, affecting approximately 95% of users. This resulted in lost sales and numerous customer complaints. Over 200 complaints were received within the first hour.
**Root Cause:**
The root cause was a misconfigured database connection pool that led to the exhaustion of available connections, preventing the web application from accessing the database.
### Timeline
09:00 AM (WAT): Issue detected through a monitoring alert indicating high database connection usage.
09:05 AM (WAT): Engineering team notified via pager duty.
09:10 AM (WAT): Initial investigation focused on the web server load and potential DDoS attack.
09:30 AM (WAT): Misleading path: assumed high traffic causing server overload, but server metrics were normal.
09:45 AM (WAT): Database team brought in for further investigation.
10:00 AM (WAT): Identified issue with the database connection pool limits.
10:15 AM (WAT): Escalated to the senior database administrator.
10:45 AM (WAT): Senior DBA confirmed connection pool misconfiguration.
11:00 AM (WAT): Connection pool configuration updated and increased.
11:15 AM (WAT): Web application restarted, and database connections restored.
11:30 AM (WAT): Service fully restored and confirmed stable.
### Root Cause and Resolution
**Root Cause:**
The outage was caused by a configuration error in the database connection pool settings. The connection pool was set to a maximum of 50 connections, which was insufficient for handling peak traffic loads. As a result, the application exhausted all available connections, leading to timeouts and an inability to process any database queries.
**Resolution:**
The database connection pool settings were reviewed and updated. The maximum number of connections was increased to 200, providing enough capacity to handle peak loads. After updating the configuration, the web application was restarted to apply the changes. Monitoring tools confirmed the restoration of normal operations.
### Corrective and Preventative Measures
**Improvements:**
1. **Review and Adjust Connection Pool Settings:** Regularly review and adjust database connection pool settings based on traffic patterns and load testing results.
2. **Enhanced Monitoring:** Implement more granular monitoring for database connection usage to detect issues before they lead to outages.
3. **Automated Scaling:** Explore the implementation of automated scaling solutions for the database connection pool based on real-time demand.
**Tasks:**
1. **Increase Connection Pool Limit:**
Update the database configuration to set a higher default connection pool limit.
2. **Implement Connection Pool Monitoring:**
Add detailed monitoring for connection pool usage and set up alerts for unusual patterns.
3. **Conduct Load Testing:**
Perform load testing to determine optimal connection pool settings for peak traffic.
4. **Automate Scaling Solutions:**
Research and implement an automated scaling solution for the database connection pool to dynamically adjust based on load.
5. **Review Configuration Management:**
Establish a regular review process for all configuration settings related to the database and web application to ensure they meet current traffic demands.
6. **Update Documentation:**
Document the configuration changes and update the runbooks to include steps for adjusting the connection pool settings.
Writing a detailed postmortem helps your team understand the root cause of an outage, improve your processes, and communicate effectively with stakeholders. By following the structured approach outlined in this post and our use case example, you can ensure your postmortems are thorough and actionable, leading to a more resilient and reliable service. | preciousanyi |
1,878,084 | CSRF leads to Open redirect | Reward: 15$ Overview of the Vulnerability Open redirects occur when an application accepts user... | 0 | 2024-06-05T13:49:11 | https://dev.to/c4ng4c31r0/csrf-leads-to-open-redirect-1n5a | **Reward: 15$**
**Overview of the Vulnerability**
Open redirects occur when an application accepts user input that is not validated into the target of a redirection. This input causes a redirection to an external domain, manipulating a user by redirecting them to a malicious site. An open redirect was identified which can impact users' ability to trust legitimate web pages. An attacker can send a phishing email that contains a link with a legitimate business name in the URL and the user will be redirected from the legitimate web server to any external domain. Users are less likely to notice subsequent redirects to different domains when an authentic URL with a valid SSL certificate can be used within the phishing link.
This type of attack is also a precursor for more serious vulnerabilities such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), or successful phishing attempts where an attacker can harvest users' credentials or gain users' OAuth access by relaying them through an Open Redirection, to a server they control (and can see the inbound requests from).
**Business Impact**
Open redirects can result in reputational damage for the business as customers' trust is negatively impacted by an attacker sending them to a phishing site to extract login credentials, or coercing them to send a financial transaction.

1,897,147 | Diferença entre Listas, Tuplas e Dicionários no Python | Como muitos já devem saber, o Python é uma das linguagens que vem crescendo exponencialmente na... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:15:12 | https://dev.to/rvinicius396g/diferenca-entre-listas-tuplas-e-dicionarios-no-python-490o | python, listas, tuplas, dicionário | Como muitos já devem saber, o Python é uma das linguagens que vem crescendo exponencialmente na análise de dados, assim como tem vários conceitos básicos que precisamos dominar par um melhor aproveitamento. Sendo assim, vou explicar o conceito de alguns itens que eu considero fundamentais e mostrar na prática nesse artigo.
Os exemplos apresentados foram executados no Jupyter Notebook, então, não estranhe a ausência do Print()
## **Listas**
Uma lista é uma estrutura de dados de forma sequencial na qual cada item é acessado a partir de um índice (a partir do zero), que representa sua posição inicial.. A lista é mutável, ou seja, pode ter seus valores alterados.
```
#Criando uma lista
listadomercado = [“ovos, farinha, leite, maças”]
# Imprimindo a lista
print(listadomercado)
# Imprimindo um item da lista
listadomercado[2]
#Adicionando mais informações a uma lista
listadomercado.append(‘Trigo’)
# Atualizando um item da lista
listadomercado[2] = “chocolate”
# Imprimindo lista alterada
print(listadomercado)
# Deletando um item específico da lista
del listadomercado[3]
# Imprimindo o item com a lista alterada
listadomercado
```
## **Listas de listas (Listas aninhadas)**
Listas de listas são matrizes em Python, em outras palavras possuem linhas e colunas
`# Criando uma lista de listas
listas = [[1,2,3], [10,15,14], [10.1,8.7,2.3]]
# Imprimindo a lista
print(listas)
`
```
# declaração de 2 listas
lista_s1 = [34, 32, 56]
lista_s2 = [21, 90, 51]
# Concatenando listas
lista_total = lista_s1 + lista_s2
print(lista_total)
```
## **Dicionários**
Dicionários são utilizados para representar chaves e valores {Key : Value}. Diferente das listas que são ordenadas pelo índice (que começa do 0), nos dicionários nós podemos definir as chaves e os valores, sendo assim, os dicionários são muito utilizados para projetos complexos.
```
# Isso é um dicionário
estudantes_dict = {“Mateus”:24, “Fernanda”:22, “Tamires”:26, “Cristiano”:25}
#Imprimindo dicionário
print(estudantes_dict)
#Podemos acessar o valor de um chave, da seguinte maneira
print(estudantes_dict[“Fernanda”])
#Limpando um dicionário
estudantes_dict.clear()
#Aqui é importante ressaltar, que ao limparmos o dicionário ele continua #existindo. No entanto, agora temos um dicionário estudantes_dict vazio !
#Adicionando mais itens ao dicionário
estudantes_dict[“Pedro”] = 23
#Deletando um dicionário, ao deletarmos ele deixa de existir
del estudantes_dict
#Exibindo toda as chaves de um dicionário
estudantes_dict.keys()
#Exibindo todas os valores de um dicionário
estudantes_dict.values()
#exibindo os itens de um dicionário (keys + values)
estudantes_dict.items()
#Exibindo o comprimento de um dicionário
print( len(estudantes_dict) )
#As chaves e valores podem ser iguais, mas apresentam informações diferentes. Ainda assim, não é recomendado criar dicionários com chaves e valores iguais, porque pode causar confusão para o entendimento de outros analistas, dificultar a manutenção etc.
dic1 = {“a”:”a"}
```
## **Tuplas**
São sequências de informações (strings, inteiros, listas, etc.) não mutáveis. Ou seja, depois que definidas não podem ter seus valores alterados. É indicado a sua utilização, somente para situações em que o valor nunca será alterado. (Ex: Fechamento da cotação de uma moeda, data de nascimento, etc.)
```
# Criando uma tupla
tupla1 = (“Geografia”, 23, “Elefantes”)
# Imprimindo a tupla
tupla1
# Tuplas não suportam append()
tupla1.append(“Chocolate”)
# Tuplas não suportam delete de um item específico
del tupla1[“Gatos”]
# Tuplas podem ter um único item
tupla1 = (“Chocolate”)
# Verificando o comprimento da tupla
len(tupla1)
# Tuplas não suportam atribuição de item
tupla1[1] = 21
# Deletando a tupla
del tupla1
# Tuplas não suportam atribuição de item
tupla1[3] = 21
```
Se precisarmos fazer alteração de uma informação na tupla, o que fazemos ?
Podemos converter para uma lista, fazemos as alterações necessárias, por fim, convertemos novamente para tupla.
```
# Convertemos tupla1 para lista
a= list(tupla1)
a.append(“test3”)
# Depois, convertemos a lista para tupla fazendo atribuição
tupla1 = tuple(a)
```

Memoization stores the results of expensive operations and returns them quickly when needed, saving time and effort. Think of a video game save point! Instead of replaying the same level every time you lose, you save your progress. Don't hate your cache!
Also huge shoutout to my team member @vedangit !!

## Is is possible?
### Can enumerations implement interfaces?
Yes.
[Source: enumeration PHP](https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.enumerations.php)
### Is it possible to "Multi catch" in PHP?
Yes.
Instead of doing that:
```PHP
try {
} catch(MyException $e) {
} catch(AnotherException $e) {
}
```
Do that:
```PHP
try {
} catch(MyException | AnotherException $e) {
}
```
[Source: PHP - exceptions](https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.exceptions.php)
### Can an interface extend another interface?
Yes.
Unlike with classes, you can even have multiple inheritance:
```php
interface A
{
public function foo();
}
interface B
{
public function bar();
}
interface C extends A, B
{
public function baz();
}
```
[Source: object interfaces](https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.interfaces.php)
## Do you need it?
### Does your enum need an interface?
It's usually a good practice, as you can type check for that interface quite conveniently:
```PHP
interface Colorful {
public function color(): string;
}
enum Suit implements Colorful {
case Hearts;
case Diamonds;
case Clubs;
case Spades;
public function color(): string {
return match($this) {
Suit::Hearts, Suit::Diamonds => 'Red',
Suit::Clubs, Suit::Spades => 'Black',
};
}
}
function paint(Colorful $c) { ... }
paint(Suit::Clubs);
```
[Source: RFC - enumerations](https://wiki.php.net/rfc/enumerations)
### Do you need Multi catch blocks?
It depends.
This syntax works:
```PHP
try {
} catch(MyException | AnotherException $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
```
However, ensure your exceptions implement the same methods.
In contrast, using several catch blocks can be handy to catch different classes of exceptions.
Although, if you need to group your exceptions, avoid the following:
```PHP
try {
} catch(AnException | AnotherException2 | AnotherException3 | AnotherException4 | AnotherException5 | AnotherException6 | AnotherException7 | AnotherException8 | AnotherException9 $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
```
While it's valid, it can give the false impression of clean code. Having too much exceptions is not a good [de]sign.
### Inheritance with interfaces
I must admit I rarely use that one, but it's good to know:
```PHP
interface Writable
{
public function write();
}
interface Document extends Writable
{
public function edit();
}
```
Do you need it?
It depends. If your interface contains too much methods, it probably means you are breaking the Interface Segregation Principle. | spo0q |

1,897,139 | Documenting a Spring REST API Using Smart-doc | If you are developing a RESTful API with Spring Boot, you want to make it as easy as possible for... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:10:19 | https://dev.to/yu_sun_0a160dea497156d354/documenting-a-spring-rest-api-using-smart-doc-46ic | springboot, restapi, java | If you are developing a RESTful API with Spring Boot, you want to make it as easy as possible for other developers to understand and use your API. Documentation is essential because it provides a reference for future updates and helps other developers integrate with your API. For a long time, the way to document REST APIs was to use Swagger, an open-source software framework that enables developers to design, build, document, and consume RESTful Web services. In 2018, to address the issues of code invasiveness and dependency associated with traditional API documentation tools like Swagger, we developed `smart-doc` and open-sourced it to the community.
In this article, we will explore how to use `Smart-doc` to generate documentation for a Spring Boot REST API.
## What is Smart-doc?
`Smart-doc` is an interface documentation generation tool for Java projects. It primarily analyzes and extracts comments from Java source code to produce API documentation. Smart-doc scans standard Java comments in the code, eliminating the need for specialized annotations like those used in Swagger, thus maintaining the simplicity and non-invasiveness of the code. It supports multiple formats for document output, including `Markdown`, `HTML5`, `Postman Collection`, `OpenAPI 3.0`, etc. This flexibility allows developers to choose the appropriate documentation format based on their needs. Additionally, Smart-doc can scan code to generate JMeter performance testing scripts.
For more features, please refer to the [official documentation](https://smart-doc-group.github.io/#/README)
## Steps to use Smart-doc for documenting APIs
**Step 1: Maven Project**
- Create a Maven project with the latest version of Spring Boot
- Add the Web dependencies to the project

**Step 2: Add Smart-doc Into the Project**
- Add `smart-doc-maven-plugin` to the project's `pom.xml`
```xml
<plugin>
<groupId>com.ly.smart-doc</groupId>
<artifactId>smart-doc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>[latest version]</version>
<configuration>
<configFile>./src/main/resources/smart-doc.json</configFile>
<projectName>${project.description}</projectName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
```
- Create the `smart-doc.json` file in the resources directory of the module where the project startup class is located.
```json
{
"outPath": "/path/to/userdir"
}
```
**Step 3: Create a Rest Controller**
Now let's create a controller class that will handle HTTP requests and return responses.
- Create a controller class that will be sent as a JSON response.
```java
public class User {
/**
* user id
*
*/
private long id;
/**
* first name
*/
private String firstName;
/**
* last name
*/
private String lastName;
/**
* email address
*/
private String email;
public long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getFirstName() {
return firstName;
}
public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
}
public String getLastName() {
return lastName;
}
public void setLastName(String lastName) {
this.lastName = lastName;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
}
```
- Now create a service class
```java
@Repository
public class UserRepository {
private static final Map<Long, User> users = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
static {
User user = new User();
user.setId(1);
user.setEmail("123@gmail.com");
user.setFirstName("Tom");
user.setLastName("King");
users.put(1L,user);
}
public Optional<User> findById(long id) {
return Optional.ofNullable(users.get(id));
}
public void add(User book) {
users.put(book.getId(), book);
}
public List<User> getUsers() {
return users.values().stream().collect(Collectors.toList());
}
public boolean delete(User user) {
return users.remove(user.getId(),user);
}
}
```
- Create the RestController Class.
```java
/**
* The type User controller.
*
* @author yu 2020/12/27.
*/
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/v1")
public class UserController {
@Resource
private UserRepository userRepository;
/**
* Create user.
*
* @param user the user
* @return the user
*/
@PostMapping("/users")
public ResponseResult<User> createUser(@Valid @RequestBody User user) {
userRepository.add(user);
return ResponseResult.ok(user);
}
/**
* Get all users list.
*
* @return the list
*/
@GetMapping("/users")
public ResponseResult<List<User>> getAllUsers() {
return ResponseResult.ok().setResultData(userRepository.getUsers());
}
/**
* Gets users by id.
*
* @param userId the user id|1
* @return the users by id
*/
@GetMapping("/users/{id}")
public ResponseResult<User> getUsersById(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long userId) {
User user = userRepository.findById(userId).
orElseThrow(() -> new ResourceNotFoundException("User not found on :: " + userId));
return ResponseResult.ok().setResultData(user);
}
/**
* Update user response entity.
*
* @param userId the user id|1
* @param userDetails the user details
* @return the response entity
*/
@PutMapping("/users/{id}")
public ResponseResult<User> updateUser(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long userId, @Valid @RequestBody User userDetails) {
User user = userRepository.findById(userId).
orElseThrow(() -> new ResourceNotFoundException("User not found on :: " + userId));
user.setEmail(userDetails.getEmail());
user.setLastName(userDetails.getLastName());
user.setFirstName(userDetails.getFirstName());
userRepository.add(user);
return ResponseResult.ok().setResultData(user);
}
/**
* Delete user.
*
* @param userId the user id|1
* @return the map
*/
@DeleteMapping("/user/{id}")
public ResponseResult<Boolean> deleteUser(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long userId) {
User user = userRepository.findById(userId).
orElseThrow(() -> new ResourceNotFoundException("User not found on :: " + userId));
return ResponseResult.ok().setResultData(userRepository.delete(user));
}
}
```
**Step 4: Generate document**
You can use the Smart-doc plugin in `IntelliJ IDEA` to generate the desired documentation, such as `OpenAPI`, `Markdown`, etc.

Of course, you can also use the Maven command to generate:
```shell
mvn smart-doc:html
// Generate document output to Markdown
mvn smart-doc:markdown
// Generate document output to Adoc
mvn smart-doc:adoc
// Generate Postman.
mvn smart-doc:postman
// Generate OpenAPI 3.0+
mvn smart-doc:openapi
```
**Step 4: Import to Postman**
Here we use `Smart-doc` to generate a `Postman.json`, then import it into `Postman` to see the effect.

Since smart-doc supports generating documentation in multiple formats, you can choose to generate `OpenAPI` and then display it using `Swagger UI` or import it into some professional API documentation systems.
## Conclusion
From the previous examples, it can be seen that Smart-doc generates documentation by **scanning standard Java comments in the code**, without the need for specialized annotations like Swagger, thus maintaining the simplicity and non-invasiveness of the code, and also not affecting the size of the service Jar package. It supports multiple formats for document output, including `Markdown`, `HTML5`, `Postman Collection`,` OpenAPI 3.0`, etc. This flexibility allows developers to choose the appropriate document format for output based on their needs. The `Maven` or `Gradle` plugins provided by smart-doc also facilitate users in integrating document generation in `Devops pipelines`.
Currently, Swagger also has its advantages, such as more powerful UI features, and better support for Springboot Webflux.

## Dashboards operacionais

Tem como finalidade dar uma visão em tempo real (real time) do desempenho de determinada operação, apresenta métricas bem definidas que garantem a tomada de decisão mais adequada para o momento. Sendo assim, é normal termos um número grande de informações, como por exemplo:
- Painéis com informações real-time sobre ligações recebidas/realizadas;
- Monitoramento de ligações atendidas/perdidas de um call center;
- Chamados acumulados para determinada área;
- Google Analystics com informações de trafego de um site;
## Dashboard Estratégicos

Tem como principal característica apresentar informações de uma forma simples e rápida, para que os tomadores de decisão possam acompanhar o seu negócio;
Para Few (2006, p. 41), “O uso primários de Dashboards nos dias de hoje é para propósitos estratégicos (…), [pois eles] oferecem uma rápida visão que os tomadores de decisão precisam para monitorar a saúde e as oportunidades de um negócio (…)”.

1,897,142 | Unlocking Twitter's Advanced Search: A Guide to Finding What Matters | Unlocking Twitter's Advanced Search: A Guide to Finding What Matters Twitter isn't just a place to... | 0 | 2024-06-22T16:07:29 | https://dev.to/learn_with_santosh/unlocking-twitters-advanced-search-a-guide-to-finding-what-matters-13a8 | twitter, tips | **Unlocking Twitter's Advanced Search: A Guide to Finding What Matters**
Twitter isn't just a place to share thoughts; it's a vast treasure trove of real-time information waiting to be explored. Whether you're a casual user or a savvy professional, mastering Twitter's advanced search capabilities can significantly enhance your experience and knowledge. Here’s how you can harness its power effectively:
### Why Use Advanced Search?
Twitter's basic search bar is great for finding recent tweets on popular topics, but advanced search takes it a step further. It allows you to pinpoint specific conversations, discover trending hashtags, follow discussions from particular users, and filter by location or sentiment. It's like having a finely tuned radar for what’s happening right now, tailored to your interests.
### How to Use Advanced Search Formulas
1. **Basic Keyword Search**: Start by typing keywords related to your interest or query into the search bar. This retrieves tweets containing those exact words or phrases.
2. **Exact Phrase Search**: Use quotation marks around phrases like "artificial intelligence" to find tweets where the words appear exactly as typed.
3. **OR Operator**: Combine related terms with OR (uppercase) to broaden your search. For example, searching for AI OR machine learning will fetch tweets containing either term.
4. **Exclude Terms**: Use a minus sign (-) before a word to exclude tweets containing that word. For instance, if you search for programming -java, you'll see tweets about programming except those mentioning Java.
5. **Hashtags**: Explore trending topics or follow specific themes by searching for hashtags like #DigitalMarketing or #MachineLearning.
6. **From a Specific User**: Type from:username to see tweets exclusively from a particular user. For example, from:NASA will show tweets from NASA's official account.
7. **To a Specific User**: Use to:username to see tweets directed at a specific user. For instance, to:elonmusk shows tweets directed to Elon Musk.
8. **Mentioning a Specific User**: Use @username to find tweets mentioning a specific user. For example, @SpaceX will show tweets referencing SpaceX.
9. **Retweets**: Include retweets in your search results with include:retweets. This helps you find popular tweets on a particular topic.
10. **Near Operator**: Find tweets from a specific location using near:city or near:"latitude,longitude,distance". For example, near:New York shows tweets from New York City.
11. **Date Range**: Narrow down results within a specific timeframe using since:yyyy-mm-dd and until:yyyy-mm-dd. This is useful for tracking developments over time.
12. **Question Search**: Add a question mark (?) to find tweets that are questions. For example, "future of AI ?" will show tweets where users are asking about the future of AI.
13. **Language Filter**: Use lang:xx to filter tweets by language. For example, crypto lang:en shows tweets about cryptocurrency in English.
14. **Sentiment Analysis**: Use :) for positive or :( for negative sentiment. For example, "quantum computing :)" will show tweets with positive sentiment about quantum computing.
### Putting It Into Practice

Given an array of stock prices on different days, find the maximum profit when only one buy and one sell is allowed.
This is pretty straightforward and an online search provides a number of examples.
```
func FindSingleBestBuySell(prices []float64) float64 {
buy := prices[0]
maxProfit := 0.0
for i := 0; i < len(prices); i++ {
if buy > prices[i] {
buy = prices[i]
} else if prices[i]- buy > maxProfit {
maxProfit = prices[i] - buy
}
}
return maxProfit
}
```
The solution is to maintain a buy price and a profit. Start by assuming a buy at the initial price, then step through the array. If you find a lower price, then that becomes the new buy price. Otherwise we can check potential profit; so if the potential profit is greater than that seen previously, we can sell at the current price.
Are there any gotchas here? Post your thoughts in the comments.

1,897,137 | AVIF vs JPG: A Comparative Analysis | What Are the Differences Between AVIF and JPG? AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) and JPG (or... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:58:54 | https://dev.to/msmith99994/avif-vs-jpg-a-comparative-analysis-372j | ## What Are the Differences Between AVIF and JPG?
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) and JPG (or JPEG - Joint Photographic Experts Group) are two image formats that serve different purposes and come with their own set of characteristics. Understanding these differences can help you choose the right format for your specific needs.
### AVIF
**- Compression:** AVIF uses both lossy and lossless compression based on the AV1 video codec, which offers superior compression efficiency. This results in significantly smaller file sizes compared to other formats like JPEG.
**- Color Depth:** Supports high dynamic range (HDR) and 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit color depths, which can display a wide range of colors and brightness levels.
**- Transparency:** Supports alpha channels, allowing for full transparency.
**- File Size:** Generally smaller due to highly efficient compression.
**- Quality:** Provides high image quality even at smaller file sizes.
### JPG
**- Compression:** JPG uses lossy compression, which reduces file size by discarding some image data. This can result in a loss of quality, especially at higher compression levels.
**- Color Depth:** Supports 24-bit color, displaying millions of colors, making it ideal for photographs and detailed images.
**- Transparency:** Does not support transparency.
**- File Size:** Generally larger compared to AVIF for the same image quality.
**- Quality:** Quality decreases with higher compression levels and repeated saving.
## Where Are They Used?
### AVIF
**- Web Graphics:** Ideal for high-quality images with smaller file sizes, enhancing website loading speeds and performance.
**- Photography:** Used for storing high-resolution images with minimal loss in quality.
**- Mobile Applications:** Helps in optimizing storage and performance in mobile apps by reducing image file sizes.
**- E-commerce:** Employed to showcase product images with high quality and fast loading times.
### JPG
**- Digital Photography:** Standard format for digital cameras and smartphones due to its balance of quality and file size.
**- Web Design:** Widely used for photographs and complex images on websites because of its quick loading times.
**- Social Media:** Preferred for sharing images on social platforms due to its universal support and small file size.
**- Email and Document Sharing:** Frequently used in emails and documents for easy viewing and sharing.
## Benefits and Drawbacks
### AVIF
**Benefits:**
**- Superior Compression:** Provides significantly smaller file sizes compared to other formats without sacrificing quality.
**- High Quality:** Supports HDR and higher bit depths, offering excellent image quality.
**- Transparency:** Includes support for alpha channels, allowing for transparency.
**- Performance Optimization:** Ideal for web use, enhancing loading speeds and overall performance.
**Drawbacks:**
**- Limited Compatibility:** Not as widely supported as older formats like PNG and JPEG.
**- Processing Power:** Requires more processing power for encoding and decoding compared to simpler formats.
**- Adoption:** Being a newer format, it is still gaining traction and widespread use.
### JPG
**Benefits:**
**- Small File Size:** Effective lossy compression reduces file sizes significantly.
**- Wide Compatibility:** Supported by almost all devices, browsers, and software.
**- High Color Depth:** Capable of displaying millions of colors, ideal for photographs.
**- Adjustable Quality:** Compression levels can be adjusted to balance quality and file size.
**Drawbacks:**
**- Lossy Compression:** Quality degrades with higher compression levels and repeated edits.
**- No Transparency:** Does not support transparent backgrounds.
**- Limited Editing Capability:** Cumulative compression losses make it less ideal for extensive editing.
## When You Should Use Each One
**Use AVIF When:**
- You need high-quality images with small file sizes to optimize web performance.
- You want to take advantage of high dynamic range (HDR) and higher bit depths.
- You require images with transparency support for complex web graphics.
- Your target audience uses modern browsers and devices that support AVIF.
**Use JPG When:**
- You need a widely compatible format that works across almost all devices and platforms.
- You are working with digital photography and need a good balance of quality and file size.
- You need to share images on social media or through email, where universal support is essential.
- You are dealing with simpler images that do not require transparency or high dynamic range.
## Final Thoughts
[AVIF and JPG](https://cloudinary.com/tools/avif-to-jpg) are both essential image formats with distinct advantages and use cases. AVIF excels in providing high-quality images with superior compression efficiency, making it ideal for modern web applications and high-resolution photography. JPG remains a staple for digital photography, web design, and social media due to its wide compatibility and balance of quality and file size.
Understanding the differences between AVIF and JPG, and knowing when to use each format, allows you to optimize your images for the best performance and quality. Whether you need the advanced capabilities of AVIF or the broad compatibility of JPG, mastering these formats ensures you can handle any digital image requirement effectively. | msmith99994 | |

However, one common issue with Render is that instances can spin down due to inactivity. This results in delayed responses of up to a minute when the instance has to be redeployed. This behavior is clearly mentioned by Render:

**The Problem**
Render instances spin down when inactive, leading to delays when the server is accessed after a period of inactivity. This can be particularly annoying as it affects the user experience with slow response times.
**The Solution**
To keep your instance active even when no one is using the site, you can add a self-referencing reloader in your app.js or index.js file. This will periodically ping your server, preventing it from spinning down.
Here’s a simple snippet of code to achieve this:
```
const url = `https://yourappname.onrender.com/`; // Replace with your Render URL
const interval = 30000; // Interval in milliseconds (30 seconds)
//Reloader Function
function reloadWebsite() {
axios.get(url)
.then(response => {
console.log(`Reloaded at ${new Date().toISOString()}: Status Code ${response.status}`);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(`Error reloading at ${new Date().toISOString()}:`, error.message);
});
}
setInterval(reloadWebsite, interval);
```
**How It Works**
- Self-Referencing Reload: This code snippet sets an interval to ping your server every 30 seconds.
- Keep Alive: By continuously pinging the server, it remains active, preventing it from spinning down.
- Logs: You can monitor the logs to see the periodic checks and ensure the server is active.
**Implementation**
1. Add the Code: Insert the above code into your app.js or index.js file.
2. Start Your Server: Deploy your application to Render as usual.
3. Monitor: Check the logs in your Render dashboard to verify that the server is being pinged regularly.
**Benefits**
1. No Downtime: Your server remains active, providing quick responses.
2. Simple Solution: Easy to implement without complex configurations.
3. Scalability: Works well for small to medium-level hobby projects.
**Managing Multiple Backends**
For projects with multiple backends, you can consolidate the reloaders into a single backend. This approach ensures all instances remain active without each backend needing its own reloader.
**Conclusion**
By adding a simple reloader script to your backend, you can prevent Render instances from spinning down due to inactivity. This ensures that your server remains responsive, providing a better user experience for your hobby projects. This solution is effective for small to medium-level projects and helps maintain constant activity on your server.

# Introduction
I'm a developer since 2010, and I have been working with ObjectScript since 2013.
So roughly 10 years of experience with ObjectScript.
Since 2021 and the release of Embedded Python in IRIS, I put my self a challenge :
* Learn Python
* Do as much as possible everything in Python
When I started this journey, I had no idea of what Python was. So I started with the basics, and I'm still learning every day.
# Starting with Python
The good thing with Python is that it's easy to learn. It's even easier when you already know ObjectScript.
**Why ?** They have a lot in common.
| ObjectScript | Python |
| ----------- | ------ |
| Untyped | Untyped |
| Scripting language | Scripting language |
| Object Oriented | Object Oriented |
| Interpreted | Interpreted |
| Easy C integration | Easy C integration |
</br>
**So, if you know ObjectScript, you already know a lot about Python.**
But, there are some differences, and some of them are not easy to understand.
# Python is not ObjectScript
To keep it simple, I will focus on the *main differences* between ObjectScript and Python.
For me there are mainly 3 differences :
* Pep8
* Modules
* Dunders
## Pep8
What the hell is **Pep8** ?
It's a set of rules to write Python code.
[pep8.org](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/)
Few of them are :
* naming convention
* variable names
* snake_case
* class names
* CamelCase
* indentation
* line length
* etc.
**Why is it important ?**
Because it's the way to write Python code. And if you don't follow these rules, you will have a hard time to read other people's code, and they will have a hard time to read your code.
As ObjectScript developers, we also have some rules to follow, but they are not as strict as Pep8.
*I learned Pep8 the hard way.*
For the story, I'm a sales engineer at InterSystems, and I'm doing a lot of demos. And one day, I was doing a demo of Embedded Python to a customer, this customer was a Python developer, and the conversation turned short when he saw my code. He told me that my code was not Pythonic at all (he was right) I was coding in python like I was coding in ObjectScript. And because of that, he told me that he was not interested in Embedded Python anymore. I was shocked, and I decided to learn Python the right way.
So, if you want to learn Python, learn Pep8 first.
## Modules
*Modules are something that we don't have in ObjectScript.*
Usually, in object oriented languages, you have classes, and packages. In Python, you have classes, packages, and modules.
**What is a module ?**
It's a file with a .py extension. And it's the way to organize your code.
You didn't understand ? Me neither at the beginning. So let's take an example.
Usually, when you want to create a class in ObjectScript, you create a .cls file, and you put your class in it. And if you want to create another class, you create another .cls file. And if you want to create a package, you create a folder, and you put your .cls files in it.
In Python, it's the same, but Python bring the ability to have multiple classes in a single file. And this file is called a module.
FYI, It's `Pythonic` to have multiple classes in a single file.
**So plan head how you will organize your code**, and how you will name your modules to **not end up like me with a lot of modules with the same name as your classes**.
*A bad example* :
MyClass.py
```python
class MyClass:
def __init__(self):
pass
def my_method(self):
pass
```
To instantiate this class, you will do :
```python
import MyClass.MyClass # weird right ?
my_class = MyClass()
```
**Weird right ?**
## Dunders
**Dunders are special methods in Python.** They are called dunder because they start and end with *double underscores*.
They are kind of our `%` methods in ObjectScript.
They are used for :
* constructor
* operator overloading
* object representation
* etc.
Example :
```python
class MyClass:
def __init__(self):
pass
def __repr__(self):
return "MyClass"
def __add__(self, other):
return self + other
```
Here we have 3 dunder methods :
* `__init__` : constructor
* `__repr__` : object representation
* `__add__` : operator overloading
**Dunders methods are everywhere in Python**. It's a major part of the language, but don't worry, you will learn them quickly.
## Conclusion
**Python is not ObjectScript**, and you will have to learn it. But it's not that hard, and you will learn it quickly.
Just keep in mind that you will have to learn Pep8, and how to organize your code with modules and dunder methods.
*Good sites to learn Python :*

# Embedded Python
Now that you know a little bit more about Python, let's talk about Embedded Python.
## What is Embedded Python ?
**Embedded Python** is a way to execute Python code in IRIS. It's a new feature of **IRIS 2021.2+**.
This means that your python code will be executed in the same process as IRIS.
For the more, every ObjectScript class is a Python class, same for methods and attributes and vice versa. 🥳
This is neat !
## How to use Embedded Python ?
There are 3 main ways to use Embedded Python :
* Using the language tag in ObjectScript
* Method Foo() As %String [ Language = python ]
* Using the ##class(%SYS.Python).Import() function
* Using the python interpreter
* python3 -c "import iris; print(iris.system.Version.GetVersion())"
But if you want to be serious about Embedded Python, you will have to **avoid using the language tag**.

Why ?
* Because it's not Pythonic
* Because it's not ObjectScript either
* Because you don't have a debugger
* Because you don't have a linter
* Because you don't have a formatter
* Because you don't have a test framework
* Because you don't have a package manager
* Because you are mixing 2 languages in the same file
* Because when you process crashes, you don't have a stack trace
* Because you can't use virtual environments or conda environments
* ...
Don't get me wrong, it works, it can be useful, if you want to test something quickly, but IMO it's not a good practice.
So, what did I learn from this 2 years of Embedded Python, and how to use it the right way ?
# How I use Embedded Python
For me, you have two options :
* Use Python libraries as they were ObjectScript classes
* with ##class(%SYS.Python).Import() function
* Use a python first approach
## Use Python libraries and code as they were ObjectScript classes
You still want to use Python in your ObjectScript code, but you don't want to use the language tag. So what can you do ?
"Simply" use Python libraries and code as they were ObjectScript classes.
Let's take an example :
You want to use the `requests` library ( it's a library to make HTTP requests ) in your ObjectScript code.
## With the language tag
```objectscript
ClassMethod Get() As %Status [ Language = python ]
{
import requests
url = "https://httpbin.org/get"
# make a get request
response = requests.get(url)
# get the json data from the response
data = response.json()
# iterate over the data and print key-value pairs
for key, value in data.items():
print(key, ":", value)
}
```
**Why I think it's not a good idea ?**
Because you are mixing 2 languages in the same file, and you don't have a debugger, a linter, a formatter, etc.
If this code crashes, you will have a hard time to debug it.
You don't have a stack trace, and you don't know where the error comes from.
And you don't have auto-completion.
## Without the language tag
```objectscript
ClassMethod Get() As %Status
{
set status = $$$OK
set url = "https://httpbin.org/get"
// Import Python module "requests" as an ObjectScript class
set request = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("requests")
// Call the get method of the request class
set response = request.get(url)
// Call the json method of the response class
set data = response.json()
// Here data is a Python dictionary
// To iterate over a Python dictionary, you have to use the dunder method and items()
// Import built-in Python module
set builtins = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("builtins")
// Here we are using len from the builtins module to get the length of the dictionary
For i = 0:1:builtins.len(data)-1 {
// Now we convert the items of the dictionary to a list, and we get the key and the value using the dunder method __getitem__
Write builtins.list(data.items())."__getitem__"(i)."__getitem__"(0),": ",builtins.list(data.items())."__getitem__"(i)."__getitem__"(1),!
}
quit status
}
```
**Why I think it's a good idea ?**
Because you are using Python as it was ObjectScript. You are importing the `requests` library as an ObjectScript class, and you are using it as an ObjectScript class.
All the logic is in ObjectScript, and you are using Python as a library.
Even for maintenance, it's easier to read and understand, any ObjectScript developer can understand this code.
The drawback is that you have to know how to use duners methods, and how to use Python as it was ObjectScript.
## Conclusion
Belive me, this way you will end up with a more robust code, and you will be able to debug it easily.
At first, it's seems hard, but you will find the benefits of learning Python faster than you think.
# Use a python first approach
This is the way I prefer to use Embedded Python.
I have built a lot of tools using this approach, and I'm very happy with it.
Few examples :
* [iop](https://github.com/grongierisc/interoperability-embedded-python)
* [iris-python-interoperability-template](https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-python-interoperability-template)
* [iris-imap-adapter](https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-imap-python-adaptor)
* [iris-chemicals-properties](https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-chemicals-properties)
* [rest-to-dicom](https://github.com/grongierisc/RestToDicom)
* [iris-fhir-python-strategy](https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-fhir-python-strategy)
*So, what is a python first approach ?*
There is only one rule : **Python code must be in .py files, ObjectScript code must be in .cls files**
*How to achieve this ?*
**The whole idea is to create ObjectScript wrappers classes to call Python code.**
---------
Let's take the example of `iris-fhir-python-strategy` :
# Example : iris-fhir-python-strategy
First of all, we have to understand how IRIS FHIR Server works.
Every IRIS FHIR Server implements a `Strategy`.
A `Strategy` is a set of two classes :
| Superclass | Subclass Parameters |
| ---------- | ------------------- |
| HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy | `StrategyKey` — Specifies a unique identifier for the InteractionsStrategy.<br> `InteractionsClass` — Specifies the name of your Interactions subclass.|
| HS.FHIRServer.API.RepoManager | `StrategyClass` — Specifies the name of your InteractionsStrategy subclass.<br> `StrategyKey` — Specifies a unique identifier for the InteractionsStrategy. Must match the StrategyKey parameter in the InteractionsStrategy subclass.|
Both classes are `Abstract` classes.
* `HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy` is an `Abstract` class that must be implemented to customize the behavior of the FHIR Server.
* `HS.FHIRServer.API.RepoManager` is an `Abstract` class that must be implemented to customize the storage of the FHIR Server.
## Remarks
For our example, we will only focus on the `HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy` class even if the `HS.FHIRServer.API.RepoManager` class is also implemented and mandatory to customize the FHIR Server.
The `HS.FHIRServer.API.RepoManager` class is implemented by `HS.FHIRServer.Storage.Json.RepoManager` class, which is the default implementation of the FHIR Server.
## Where to find the code
All source code can be found in this repository : [iris-fhir-python-strategy](https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-fhir-python-strategy)
The `src` folder contains the following folders :
* `python` : contains the python code
* `cls` : contains the ObjectScript code that is used to call the python code
## How to implement a Strategy
In this proof of concept, we will only be interested in how to implement a `Strategy` in Python, not how to implement a `RepoManager`.
To implement a `Strategy` you need to create at least two classes :
* A class that inherits from `HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy` class
* A class that inherits from `HS.FHIRServer.API.Interactions` class
## Implementation of InteractionsStrategy
`HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy` class aim to customize the behavior of the FHIR Server by overriding the following methods :
* `GetMetadataResource` : called to get the metadata of the FHIR Server
* this is the only method we will override in this proof of concept
`HS.FHIRServer.API.InteractionsStrategy` has also two parameters :
* `StrategyKey` : a unique identifier for the InteractionsStrategy
* `InteractionsClass` : the name of your Interactions subclass
## Implementation of Interactions
`HS.FHIRServer.API.Interactions` class aim to customize the behavior of the FHIR Server by overriding the following methods :
* `OnBeforeRequest` : called before the request is sent to the server
* `OnAfterRequest` : called after the request is sent to the server
* `PostProcessRead` : called after the read operation is done
* `PostProcessSearch` : called after the search operation is done
* `Read` : called to read a resource
* `Add` : called to add a resource
* `Update` : called to update a resource
* `Delete` : called to delete a resource
* and many more...
We implement `HS.FHIRServer.API.Interactions` class in the `src/cls/FHIR/Python/Interactions.cls` class.

The `FHIR.Python.Interactions` class inherits from `HS.FHIRServer.Storage.Json.Interactions` class and `FHIR.Python.Helper` class.
The `HS.FHIRServer.Storage.Json.Interactions` class is the default implementation of the FHIR Server.
The `FHIR.Python.Helper` class aim to help to call Python code from ObjectScript.
The `FHIR.Python.Interactions` class overrides the following methods :
* `%OnNew` : called when the object is created
* we use this method to set the python path, python class name and python module name from environment variables
* if the environment variables are not set, we use default values
* we also set the python class
* we call the `%OnNew` method of the parent class
```objectscript
Method %OnNew(pStrategy As HS.FHIRServer.Storage.Json.InteractionsStrategy) As %Status
{
// First set the python path from an env var
set ..PythonPath = $system.Util.GetEnviron("INTERACTION_PATH")
// Then set the python class name from the env var
set ..PythonClassname = $system.Util.GetEnviron("INTERACTION_CLASS")
// Then set the python module name from the env var
set ..PythonModule = $system.Util.GetEnviron("INTERACTION_MODULE")
if (..PythonPath = "") || (..PythonClassname = "") || (..PythonModule = "") {
// use default values
set ..PythonPath = "/irisdev/app/src/python/"
set ..PythonClassname = "CustomInteraction"
set ..PythonModule = "custom"
}
// Then set the python class
do ..SetPythonPath(..PythonPath)
set ..PythonClass = ..GetPythonInstance(..PythonModule, ..PythonClassname)
quit ##super(pStrategy)
}
```
* `OnBeforeRequest` : called before the request is sent to the server
* we call the `on_before_request` method of the python class
* we pass the `HS.FHIRServer.API.Service` object, the `HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Request` object, the body of the request and the timeout
```objectscript
Method OnBeforeRequest(
pFHIRService As HS.FHIRServer.API.Service,
pFHIRRequest As HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Request,
pTimeout As %Integer)
{
// OnBeforeRequest is called before each request is processed.
if $ISOBJECT(..PythonClass) {
set body = ##class(%SYS.Python).None()
if pFHIRRequest.Json '= "" {
set jsonLib = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("json")
set body = jsonLib.loads(pFHIRRequest.Json.%ToJSON())
}
do ..PythonClass."on_before_request"(pFHIRService, pFHIRRequest, body, pTimeout)
}
}
```
* `OnAfterRequest` : called after the request is sent to the server
* we call the `on_after_request` method of the python class
* we pass the `HS.FHIRServer.API.Service` object, the `HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Request` object, the `HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Response` object and the body of the response
```objectscript
Method OnAfterRequest(
pFHIRService As HS.FHIRServer.API.Service,
pFHIRRequest As HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Request,
pFHIRResponse As HS.FHIRServer.API.Data.Response)
{
// OnAfterRequest is called after each request is processed.
if $ISOBJECT(..PythonClass) {
set body = ##class(%SYS.Python).None()
if pFHIRResponse.Json '= "" {
set jsonLib = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("json")
set body = jsonLib.loads(pFHIRResponse.Json.%ToJSON())
}
do ..PythonClass."on_after_request"(pFHIRService, pFHIRRequest, pFHIRResponse, body)
}
}
```
* And so on...
## Interactions in Python
`FHIR.Python.Interactions` class calls the `on_before_request`, `on_after_request`, ... methods of the python class.
Here is the abstract python class :
```python

"""
@abc.abstractmethod
def post_process_read(self,
fhir_object:dict) -> bool:
"""

"""
@abc.abstractmethod

"""

param rs: the search result iris.HS.FHIRServer.Util.SearchResult
param resource_type: the resource type
return: None
"""
```
## Implementation of the abstract python class
```python
from FhirInteraction import Interaction
class CustomInteraction(Interaction):
def on_before_request(self, fhir_service, fhir_request, body, timeout):
#Extract the user and roles for this request
#so consent can be evaluated.
self.requesting_user = fhir_request.Username
self.requesting_roles = fhir_request.Roles
def on_after_request(self, fhir_service, fhir_request, fhir_response, body):
#Clear the user and roles between requests.
self.requesting_user = ""
self.requesting_roles = ""
def post_process_read(self, fhir_object):
#Evaluate consent based on the resource and user/roles.
#Returning 0 indicates this resource shouldn't be displayed - a 404 Not Found
#will be returned to the user.
return self.consent(fhir_object['resourceType'],
self.requesting_user,
self.requesting_roles)
def post_process_search(self, rs, resource_type):
#Iterate through each resource in the search set and evaluate
#consent based on the resource and user/roles.
#Each row marked as deleted and saved will be excluded from the Bundle.
rs._SetIterator(0)
while rs._Next():
if not self.consent(rs.ResourceType,
self.requesting_user,
self.requesting_roles):
#Mark the row as deleted and save it.
rs.MarkAsDeleted()
rs._SaveRow()
def consent(self, resource_type, user, roles):
#Example consent logic - only allow users with the role '%All' to see
#Observation resources.
if resource_type == 'Observation':
if '%All' in roles:
return True
else:
return False
else:
return True
```
# Too long, do a summary
The `FHIR.Python.Interactions` class is a wrapper to call the python class.
IRIS abstracts classes are implemented to wrap python abstract classes 🥳.
That help us to keep python code and ObjectScript code separated and for so benefit from the best of both worlds. | intersystemsdev |

It allows to simulate real-world scenarios and identify potential issues or bugs before they impact end-users. Moreover, testing with representative data sets allows to optimize performance, identify bottlenecks, and fine-tune algorithms or processes as needed. Ultimately, having a comprehensive set of test data helps to deliver a higher quality product, reducing the likelihood of post-production issues and enhancing the overall user experience. </p>
<p>In this article, let's look at how one can use generative AI, namely <a href="https://gemini.google.com/" target="_blank">Gemini by Google</a>, to generate (hopefully) meaningful data for the properties of multiple objects. To do this, I will use the RESTful service to generate data in a JSON format and then use the received data to create objects.</p>

<p><!--break--></p>
<p>This leads to an obvious question: why not use the methods from <code>%Library.PopulateUtils</code> to generate all the data? Well, the answer is quite obvious as well if you've seen the list of methods of the class - there aren't many methods that generate meaningful data.</p>
<p>So, let's get to it.</p>
<p>Since I'll be using the Gemini API, I will need to generate the API key first since I don't have it beforehand. To do this, just open <a href="https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey" target="_blank">aistudio.google.com/app/apikey</a> and click on Create API key.</p>

<p>and create an API key in a new project</p>

<p>After this is done, you just need to write a REST client to get and transform data and come up with a query string to a Gemini AI. Easy peasy 😁</p>
<p>For the ease of this example, let's work with the following simple class</p>

<pre class="codeblock-container" idlang="0" lang="ObjectScript" tabsize="4"><code class="language-cls hljs cos"><span class="hljs-keyword">Class</span> Restaurant.Dish <span class="hljs-keyword">Extends</span> (<span class="hljs-built_in">%Persistent</span>, <span class="hljs-built_in">%JSON.Adaptor</span>)
{
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Name <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%String</span><span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Description <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%String</span>(MAXLEN = <span class="hljs-number">1000</span>)<span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Category <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%String</span><span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Price <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%Float</span><span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Currency <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%String</span><span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-keyword">Property</span> Calories <span class="hljs-keyword">As</span> <span class="hljs-built_in">%Integer</span><span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
}</code></pre>
<p>In general, it would be really simple to use the built-in <code>%Populate</code> mechanism and be done with it. But in bigger projects you will get a lot of properties which are not so easily automatically populated with meaningful data.</p>
<p>Anyway, now that we have the class, let's think about the wording of a query to Gemini. Let's say we write the following query:</p>
<pre class="codeblock-container" idlang="3" lang="JSON" tabsize="4"><code class="language-json hljs">{<span class="hljs-attr">"contents"</span>: [{
<span class="hljs-attr">"parts"</span>:[{
<span class="hljs-attr">"text"</span>: <span class="hljs-string">"Write a json object that contains a field Dish which is an array of 10 elements. Each element contains Name, Description, Category, Price, Currency, Calories of the Restaurant Dish."</span>}]}]}</code></pre>
<p>If we send this request to <a href="https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-pro:generateContent?key=APIKEY" target="_blank">https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-pro:generateContent?key=APIKEY</a> we will get something like:</p>
<div class="spoiler">
<div class="spoiler-title">
<div class="spoiler-toggle show-icon"> </div>

<div class="spoiler-content" style="display: none;">

<p>Of course, since it's just an example, don't forget to add status checks where necessary.</p>
<p>Now, when I run it, I get a pretty impressive result in my database. Let's run a SQL query to see the data.</p>

<p>The description and category correspond to the name of the dish. Moreover, prices and calories look correct as well. Which means that I actually get a database, filled with reasonably real looking data. And the results of the queries that I'm going to run are going to resemble the real results.</p>
<p>Of course, a huge drawback of this approach is the necessity of writing a query to a generative AI and the fact that it takes time to generate the result. But the actual data may be worth it. Anyway, it is for you to decide 😉</p>

1,079,615 | Allow remote access to postgresql database | Allowing remote access to your PostgreSQL database can be necessary for various reasons, such as... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:35:33 | https://dev.to/yousufbasir/allow-remote-access-to-postgresql-database-mho | postgres | Allowing remote access to your PostgreSQL database can be necessary for various reasons, such as connecting from different servers or enabling remote management.
### Step 1: Modify the PostgreSQL Configuration File
First, you need to modify the PostgreSQL configuration file to allow connections from remote hosts. This file is typically located in `/etc/postgresql/<version>/main/postgresql.conf`. Replace `<version>` with your PostgreSQL version number.
For example, if you are using PostgreSQL version 13, you would run:
```bash
sudo nano /etc/postgresql/13/main/postgresql.conf
```
Locate the following line:
```plaintext
#listen_addresses = 'localhost'
```
Uncomment this line and change `'localhost'` to `'*'` to allow connections from any IP address:
```plaintext
listen_addresses = '*'
```
### Step 2: Configure Client Authentication
Next, you need to configure PostgreSQL to accept remote connections by editing the `pg_hba.conf` file, which controls client authentication.
Open the `pg_hba.conf` file:
```bash
sudo nano /etc/postgresql/13/main/pg_hba.conf
```
Add the following line at the end of the file to allow connections from any IP address using MD5 password authentication:
```plaintext
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5
```
### Step 3: Restart PostgreSQL Service
For the changes to take effect, you need to restart the PostgreSQL service. Use the following command:
```bash
sudo systemctl restart postgresql
```
### Step 4: Configure Your Firewall
Ensure your firewall allows incoming connections on PostgreSQL's default port (5432). If you are using UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall), you can allow connections to this port by running:
```bash
sudo ufw allow 5432/tcp
```
### Step 5: Verify Remote Access
To verify that your PostgreSQL database is accessible remotely, you can use a PostgreSQL client tool like `psql` from a remote machine. For example:
```bash
psql -h <your_server_ip> -U <your_username> -d <your_database>
```
Replace `<your_server_ip>`, `<your_username>`, and `<your_database>` with your server’s IP address, PostgreSQL username, and database name, respectively.
### Security Considerations
Allowing remote access to your PostgreSQL database opens up potential security risks. Here are a few best practices to mitigate these risks:
1. **Use Strong Passwords:** Ensure that all your PostgreSQL user accounts have strong passwords.
2. **Restrict IP Addresses:** Instead of allowing connections from any IP address, restrict access to specific IP addresses or ranges by modifying the `pg_hba.conf` file.
3. **Enable SSL:** Configure PostgreSQL to use SSL for encrypted connections.
4. **Regular Updates:** Keep your PostgreSQL installation and all related packages up to date to ensure you have the latest security patches.
### Conclusion
By following these steps, you can configure your PostgreSQL database to allow remote connections. Always remember to balance accessibility with security to protect your data. With the proper configuration and security measures, remote access can be both convenient and safe. | yousufbasir |

## Explainer
Machine learning is a system that learns from data and improves over time without writing extra programming. Machine learning models first train on the given data and then test the data by making decisions or predictions based on the given data.
## Additional Context
Whenever studying machine learning, we often get confused about how it works, why we need testing and training data, and the functioning of models. I simply explain: the roles of data, and how models work.

1,897,126 | What is code pollution and how to fix it - A dependency injection lesson | What is code pollution? Code pollution is an antipattern that takes place when you... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:31:23 | https://dev.to/rogeliogamez92/what-is-code-pollution-and-how-to-fix-it-a-dependency-injection-lesson-54jd | programming, beginners, testing, csharp | ## What is code pollution?
_Code pollution_ is an antipattern that takes place when you introduce additional code to your production code base to enable unit testing. [1]
This antipattern appears in two forms:
1. As a new method only called from the unit tests.
2. As a flag that changes the behavior of a class to indicate that it is called from a unit test.
Remember that _code is a liability, not an asset_. Adding code to production for the sole purpose of unit testing decreases the project's maintainability.
## Examples of code pollution
Case 1: Adding a method that is only called from the unit tests.
```csharp
public class MyClass
{
private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
public MyClass(IConfiguration configuration)
{
_configuration = configuration;
}
public string Run()
{
if (GetConfigurationValue() == "FooBar")
{
return "Do cool stuff";
}
return string.Empty;
}
// Only used for testing
internal string GetConfigurationValue()
{
return _configuration["ConfigurationValue"];
}
}
[TestClass]
public class MyTest()
{
[TestMethod]
public void TestConfigurationValue()
{
string configurationValue = "FooBar";
IConfiguration configuration = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.AddInMemoryCollection(
new Dictionary<string, string>() { "ConfigurationValue", configurationValue })
.Build();
MyClass myClass = new MyClass(configuration);
Assert.AreEqual(configurationValue, myClass.GetConfigurationValue());
}
}
```
Case 2: Injecting a flag to change the class or method behavior.
```csharp
public class MyClass
{
private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
private bool _isTestEnvironment;
public MyClass() {}
internal MyClass(IConfiguration configuration, bool isTestEnvironment)
{
_configuration = configuration;
_isTestEnvironment = isTestEnvironment;
}
public void Run(string createValue, string executeValue)
{
Repository myRepository;
if (_isTestEnvironment)
{
// Stuff for test environment
myRepository = CreateTestRepository(createValue);
}
else
{
// Stuff for normal environment
myRepository = CreateRepository(_configuration, createValue);
}
myRepository.DoStuff(executeValue);
}
}
```
## How to fix code pollution
Case 1. Fixing method or property pollution.
If you are exposing private properties or methods, you are exposing implementation details. In that case, you should change your unit test to actually test the system's behavior.
```csharp
[TestClass]
public class MyTest()
{
[TestMethod]
public void TestConfigurationValue()
{
string configurationValue = "FooBar";
IConfiguration configuration = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.AddInMemoryCollection(
new Dictionary<string, string>() { "ConfigurationValue", configurationValue })
.Build();
MyClass myClass = new MyClass(configuration);
Assert.AreEqual("Do cool stuff", myClass.Run());
}
}
```
Case 2. Fixing injection pollution.
If you need to inject a parameter or configuration to test the system, you are not applying dependency injection properly.
In our example, we use a `bool` flag to indicate our program to create a test `Repository` instead of the normal one to avoid using production dependencies `IConfiguration`.
Instead, we should inject `Repository` as a method dependency, or inject a `RepositoryBuilder` as a constructor dependency.
```csharp
// Method injection
public class MyClass
{
public MyClass() {}
public void Run(Repository repository, string executeValue)
{
repository.DoStuff(executeValue);
}
}
// Constructor injection
public class MyClass
{
private readonly RepositoryBuilder _repositoryBuilder;
public MyClass(RepositoryBuilder repositoryBuilder)
{
_repositoryBuilder = repositoryBuilder;
}
public void Run(string executeValue)
{
_respositoryBuilder.Build().DoStuff(executeValue);
}
}
```
This way, we can inject the testing repo from our unit test, and the production repo in the production code base.

Today was one of the most productive days I've had in a while and it felt great to get a lot of work done. I'm surprised how much you can do if you don't have any distractions and you set your mind to something. I got my landing page completed and spent a lot of time studying many concepts on generative AI which was fun.
**What's next?**
I will try absolute best to continue this pace and will try to up number of productive of hours on daily basis. I have one more landing page I want to work on and will do that before getting started on my portfolio landing page.
**Improvements required**
I think I have to re-figure my daily schedule in order to fit my work hours and get as many productive sessions in day as I can.
Wish me luck! | zain725342 |

Despite its benefits, it brings significant challenges, particularly in [data synchronization](https://learn.glassflow.dev/blog/articles/event-driven-design-rethinking-systems-architecture) across various services. By leveraging PostgreSQL, Debezium, and NATS, we can establish an efficient and reliable method for synchronizing data across microservices.
This guide provides a step-by-step approach to building a data synchronization stack using popular technologies. You'll get an introduction to Change Data Capture (CDC), understand the challenges, and receive ready-to-use code snippets.
## The Challenge of Data Synchronization in Microservices
Microservices are designed to be loosely coupled and independently deployable, with each having its own database. While this independence is advantageous, it presents a significant challenge in maintaining data consistency throughout the system. Traditional batch processing methods, such as ETL (extract, transform, load), can be cumbersome and often fail to provide real-time updates, which are essential for many modern applications.
## Introduction to Change Data Capture (CDC)
Change Data Capture (CDC) is a process that tracks all data changes in a database and extracts them so they can be reflected in other systems, ensuring they have accurate and up-to-date copies.
For a more in-depth discussion on this topic, refer to our previous article, "[Understanding Database Synchronization: An Overview of Change Data Capture.](https://learn.glassflow.dev/blog/articles/understanding-database-synchronization)"
## The Pipeline Components

Although PostgreSQL is used as the source database in this example, the same principles can be applied to other databases like MySQL or MariaDB. Below are brief descriptions of the components used:
### PostgreSQL: A Robust Database Solution
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database system known for its advanced features and reliability. In a microservices architecture, each service uses its own PostgreSQL instance, ensuring data isolation and integrity.
### Debezium: Change Data Capture
Debezium is an open-source platform for Change Data Capture (CDC). It monitors databases and captures row-level changes, emitting them as event streams. When integrated with PostgreSQL, Debezium captures every change made to the database in real time.
### NATS: The Messaging Backbone
NATS is a central messaging system known for its lightweight design, high throughput, and low latency. It acts as the conduit for communicating data changes across different microservices.
## Setting Up PostgreSQL
To enable CDC with PostgreSQL, several key concepts need to be understood:
Database Write-Ahead Log (WAL): WAL ensures data integrity by logging all changes before they are applied to the database files. In PostgreSQL, WAL records every change, maintaining the atomicity and durability of transactions.
Replication Slot: Replication slots are crucial for streaming replication. They ensure that the master server retains the necessary WAL logs for replicas, even if the replicas are temporarily disconnected. PostgreSQL supports two types of replication slots: physical and logical.
To configure PostgreSQL for CDC, the wal_level must be set to logical. Additionally, you may need to adjust the max_level_senders and max_replication_slots settings. Below is an example of a docker-compose file for setting up PostgreSQL:
```yaml
version: '3.9'
services:
postgres:
image: postgres:latest
command: "-c wal_level=logical -c max_wal_senders=5 -c max_replication_slots=5"
environment:
POSTGRES_DB: glassflowdb
POSTGRES_USER: glassflowuser
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: glassflow
ports:
- "5432:5432"
volumes:
- ./data/postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data
```
We can now start the database by running:
```bash
docker compose up
```
Let’s create a simple table that we will track later on. Here is an example of how to create a table in PostgreSQL:
```sql
$ psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U glassflowuser -d glassflowdb
Password for user glassflowuser:
psql (14.10, server 16.1 (Debian 16.1-1.pgdg120+1))
WARNING: psql major version 14, server major version 16.
Some psql features might not work.
Type "help" for help.
glassflowdb=# CREATE TABLE accounts (
user_id serial PRIMARY KEY,
username VARCHAR ( 50 ) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
password VARCHAR ( 50 ) NOT NULL,
email VARCHAR ( 255 ) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
created_on TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
last_login TIMESTAMP
);
```
## Setting up NATS
Update the docker compose yaml to include the NATs server configuration:
```yaml
nats:
image: nats:latest
ports:
- "4222:4222"
command:
- "--debug"
- "--http_port=8222"
- "--js"
```
## Setting Up Debezium
We are going to use a ready-to-use version of Debezium. Update the docker compose yaml to include the Debezium service configuration:
```yaml
debezium:
image: docker.io/debezium/server:latest
volumes:
- ./debezium/conf:/debezium/conf
depends_on:
- postgres
- nats
```
To get it working, we need to define a configuration for Debezium. This configuration is specified in a file named `application.properties`.
```properties
debezium.source.connector.class=io.debezium.connector.postgresql.PostgresConnector
debezium.source.offset.storage.file.filename=data/offsets.dat
debezium.source.offset.flush.interval.ms=0
debezium.source.database.hostname=postgres
debezium.source.database.port=5432
debezium.source.database.user=glassflowuser
debezium.source.database.password=glassflow
debezium.source.database.dbname=glassflowdb
debezium.source.topic.prefix=glassflowtopic
debezium.source.plugin.name=pgoutput
debezium.sink.type=nats-jetstream
debezium.sink.nats-jetstream.url=nats://nats:4222
debezium.sink.nats-jetstream.create-stream=true
debezium.sink.nats-jetstream.subjects=postgres.*.*
```
It is important to note that the source connector for PostgreSQL is typically set up using Debezium's default decoderbufs plugin. In this article, however, we will use pgoutput instead, so we need to set debezium.source.plugin.name=pgoutput.
### How Debezium Achieves CDC with PostgreSQL
Before proceeding, let's discuss how Debezium implements Change Data Capture (CDC) with PostgreSQL.
1. Debezium connects to PostgreSQL as a replication client, which involves setting up a Debezium connector for PostgreSQL. This requires PostgreSQL to be configured with wal_level set to logical.
2. When set up, Debezium creates a logical replication slot in PostgreSQL. This slot ensures that relevant WAL entries are retained until Debezium processes them, preventing data loss even if the Debezium connector goes offline temporarily.
3. Debezium reads changes from the WAL through the replication slot. It decodes these changes from their binary format into a structured format (e.g., JSON) that represents the SQL operations.
4. Each decoded change is then emitted as a separate event. These events contain all necessary information about the database changes, such as the type of operation (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE), the affected table, and the old and new values of the modified rows.
5. Debezium acts as a NATS producer, publishing each change event to a NATS topic (usually one topic per table).
6. Consumers can subscribe to these NATS topics to receive real-time updates about database changes. This enables applications and microservices to react to data changes as they happen.
## Testing Our Setup
If everything is set up correctly, any changes made to the PostgreSQL database, such as updates to the accounts table, will be sent to NATS.
```bash
$ psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U glassflowuser -d glassflowdb
glassflowdb=# INSERT INTO "public"."accounts" ("username", "password", "email", "created_on")
VALUES ('user2', 'beseeingya', 'user2@email.com', NOW());
glassflowdb=# DELETE FROM accounts WHERE username = 'user3';
```
When we create a consumer, we can observe all the events sent by Debezium.
```bash
$ nats consumer add DebeziumStream viewer --ephemeral --pull --defaults > /dev/null
$ nats consumer next --raw --count 100 DebeziumStream viewer | jq -r '.payload'
{
"before": null,

```
## Why It Matters
Integrating Debezium with PostgreSQL and NATS for Change Data Capture (CDC) is essential for building advanced, real-time data pipelines. Once set up, this integration offers numerous possibilities for data utilization and integration across various systems and applications. For instance, change events captured from the database can be streamed to a data lake, allowing organizations to aggregate large amounts of data in a centralized repository for complex analysis and machine learning purposes. These data streams can also be fed directly into analytics dashboards, providing real-time insights and decision-making capabilities. This is particularly useful for [monitoring key metrics](https://learn.glassflow.dev/docs/tutorials/use-cases/real-time-clickstream-analytics), [detecting anomalies](https://learn.glassflow.dev/docs/tutorials/use-cases/real-time-log-data-anomaly-detection), or understanding user behavior in near real-time.
Additionally, the system can trigger automated workflows in response to specific data changes, such as sending notifications or updating other systems. The flexibility and scalability of this setup make it an ideal foundation for building comprehensive and responsive data-driven ecosystems, catering to a wide range of use cases from business intelligence to operational monitoring.
## Conclusions
Synchronizing data across microservices can be challenging, but using PostgreSQL, Debezium, and NATS offers a robust solution. This setup ensures real-time data consistency across services while adhering to the principles of microservices architecture. By leveraging these technologies, we can build scalable, resilient, and efficient systems that meet the demands of modern application development.
Remember, this guide is a starting point. Depending on your specific requirements, further customization and configuration may be necessary.

Good luck, and I hope this material proves helpful in your preparation.
## **What is React?**
React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces, focusing on component-based architecture, virtual DOM for performance, JSX syntax for rendering, and one-way data flow. It's widely used for creating interactive web applications efficiently.
It is used for handling view layer for web and mobile apps based on components in a declarative approach.
## **What are the key characteristics of React?**
- Component-based architecture.
- Virtual DOM for efficient rendering.
- JSX for declarative UI syntax.
- Unidirectional data flow.
- Hooks for functional components.
- Rich ecosystem with libraries like Redux and React Router.
## **What is JSX?**
JSX stands for JavaScript XML. It's an extension to JavaScript syntax that allows developers to write HTML-like code within JavaScript. JSX makes it easier to create and manipulate the DOM structure in React applications.
- Combines JavaScript and HTML: JSX allows you to write HTML elements and JavaScript together in a single file.
- Syntax extension: It provides syntactic sugar for React.createElement(component, props, ...children) function calls.
- Compile-time transformation: JSX code is transformed into regular JavaScript objects during build time using tools like Babel.
> Code-snippet of JSX:
```
import React from 'react';
const element = <h1>Hello, JSX!</h1>;
function App() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Welcome to my React App</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph rendered using JSX.</p>
{element}
</div>
);
}
export default App;
```
In the above example, `<h1>Hello, JSX!</h1>` is JSX syntax that gets transformed into React.createElement('h1', null, 'Hello, JSX!') behind the scenes. This simplifies the process of writing and visualizing UI components in React applications.
## **What is state in React?**
In React, state is a built-in object that allows components to keep track of their internal data. It represents the mutable data that influences the component's rendering and behavior. The important point is whenever the state object changes, the component re-renders.
## **What are props in React?**
In React, props (short for properties) are a way of passing data from one component to another. They are similar to function arguments in JavaScript or parameters in other programming languages. Props are read-only and help to make components more dynamic and reusable by allowing them to be configured with different values.
_OR_
Data passed from a parent component to a child component. They are immutable (read-only) and allow components to be customizable and reusable.
> Example
Consider a parent component passing a name prop to a child component:
```
// ParentComponent.jsx
import React from 'react';
import ChildComponent from './ChildComponent';
function ParentComponent() {
const name = "Alice";
return (
<div>
<ChildComponent name={name} />
</div>
);
}
export default ParentComponent;
```
```
// ChildComponent.jsx
import React from 'react';
function ChildComponent(props) {
return <p>Hello, {props.name}!</p>;
}
export default ChildComponent;
```
- ParentComponent: Renders ChildComponent and passes a name prop with the value "Alice".
- ChildComponent: Receives name as a prop (props.name) and displays a greeting using that prop (Hello, {props.name}!).
> Above Example
- name is a prop passed from ParentComponent to ChildComponent.
- Props allow ChildComponent to dynamically display different names based on what ParentComponent passes.
## **What is the difference between state and props?**
> State
- Managed internally by the component itself.
- Can be updated using setState() method in class components or using Hooks in functional components.
- Changes trigger re-rendering of the component and its children.
- Mutable (can be modified within the component).
- Used for managing internal state and data that may change over time.
- Enhances component reusability when used effectively with local state management.
> Props
- Passed from parent to child component.
- Read-only (immutable) within the receiving component.
- Used to configure a component and provide data from parent to child.
- Components become more reusable as they can be configured differently via props.
- Cannot be modified by the receiving component.
- Used for passing data and callbacks between components in a component hierarchy.
## **What are react fragments?**
React Fragments provide a way to group multiple children elements without adding extra nodes to the DOM. They allow you to return multiple elements from a component's render method without needing to wrap them in a container element like a `<div>` or `<span>`. Fragments were introduced in React 16.2 as a lightweight syntax for grouping elements.
## **What is the difference between Component and Element?**
> Component
- Definition: A component is a JavaScript function or class that optionally accepts inputs (props) and returns a React element.
- Purpose: It defines reusable UI pieces.
- Types: Functional components (using functions) and class components (using ES6 classes).
- Usage: Components manage their own state (with Hooks or setState for class components) and lifecycle.
> Example
```
function Welcome(props) {
return <h1>Hello, {props.name}</h1>;
}
```
> Element
- Definition: An element is a plain object representation of a React component.
- Purpose: It describes what you want to see on the screen.
- Created with: JSX syntax or React.createElement() function.
- Immutable: Elements are immutable and represent the UI at a certain point in time.
> Example
```
const element = <h1>Hello, world!</h1>;
```
## **What is key in React?**
In React.js, the key prop is a special attribute used to give a unique identity to each element or component in an array or iterable list of children. It's primarily used by React internally to efficiently manage and update the component's UI when items are added, removed, or rearranged in a list.
Purpose of key:
**_Identifying Elements_**: When rendering multiple elements from an array or iterating over components, React uses keys to differentiate between items. This helps React determine which items have changed, are added, or are removed.
**_Optimizing Reconciliation_**: React uses keys during its reconciliation process (diffing algorithm) to minimize DOM updates. By having a stable identity for each item, React can efficiently update the UI without re-rendering unchanged components or losing component state.
## **What is prop drilling in React?**
Prop drilling in React refers to the process where props are passed from a higher-level component to a lower-level component through intermediary components that do not actually use the props themselves. This happens when data needs to be passed down multiple levels of nested components, even though some intermediate components don't need the data themselves.
Prop drilling is a common pattern in React where props are passed through multiple levels of nested components to reach a deeply nested child component that needs the data. While it's straightforward to implement, it can lead to code complexity and inefficiencies. Using React's Context API or state management libraries can provide cleaner solutions for managing and passing data across components in complex applications.
## **What are error boundaries?**
Error boundaries are React components that catch JavaScript errors anywhere in their child component tree, log those errors, and display a fallback UI instead of crashing the entire React application. They are used to manage and gracefully handle errors that occur during rendering, in lifecycle methods, and in constructors of React components.
## **What is Virtual DOM?**
The Virtual DOM (Document Object Model) is a concept in React and other virtual DOM-based libraries that represents a lightweight copy of the real DOM tree. It's a programming concept and an abstraction layer used for efficiently updating the UI.
- Definition: The Virtual DOM is a JavaScript representation of the actual DOM elements and their properties (attributes, styles, etc.) created by React.
- Purpose: It serves as an intermediary representation of the UI. When changes are made to the state or props of React components, React first updates the Virtual DOM rather than the real DOM directly.
- Working Principle: React compares the current Virtual DOM with a previous version (reconciliation process) to identify what has changed. This comparison is efficient because manipulating the Virtual DOM is faster than directly interacting with the actual browser DOM.
- Efficiency: Once React identifies the differences (diffing algorithm), it only updates the parts of the real DOM that have changed. This minimizes costly DOM manipulation operations and helps in achieving better performance.
- Example: Suppose you have a React component that updates its state. React will update the Virtual DOM first, compare it with the previous Virtual DOM state, and then apply the necessary changes to the real DOM.
## **What are the differences between controlled and uncontrolled components?**
Controlled and uncontrolled components are two different approaches to managing form input elements in React. The main differences lie in how they handle and manage state, especially with regards to form data.
> Controlled Components:
- State Handling: In controlled components, form data is handled by React state (typically within the parent component).
- Data Flow: The value of the form input elements (like `<input>`, `<textarea>`, `<select>`) is controlled by the state and is passed to the components as props.
- Event Handling: Changes to the form elements are handled using onChange event handlers, where the state is updated with each change.
> Uncontrolled Components:
- State Handling: Uncontrolled components rely on the DOM itself to manage form data.
- Ref Usage: References (ref) are typically used to access the DOM elements directly to get their values.
- Event Handling: Events like onSubmit, onClick, or directly accessing DOM events (element.value) are used to retrieve form data.

1,897,121 | Thread In Java | A thread is a small part of a process capable of execute independently. Java supports... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:22:08 | https://dev.to/anupam_tarai_3250344e48cd/thread-in-java-2f6e | java | - A thread is a small part of a process capable of execute independently.
- Java supports multithreading, allowing a process to be divided into multiple threads. These threads can be scheduled by the CPU to execute in parallel, improving the performance of the application.
## Creation of a Thread
- We can create a thread by extending the 'Thread' class or implementing the 'Runnable' interface. Override the run method inside the thread.
## CODE
```
class A extends Thread{ //A is a thread that extends "Thread" class
public void run(){ //Override the run method
for (int i=0; i<10; i++){
System.out.println("AAAA");
try {
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
}
}
class B implements Runnable{ //B is a thread that impliments "Runnable" interface
public void run(){ //Override the run method
for (int i=0; i<10; i++){
System.out.println("BB");
try {
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
}
}
public class Server {
public static void main(String[] args){
A a = new A();
B b = new B();
Thread Tb = new Thread(b); // we need to pass that runnable into the costructor of thread class to create a thread
a.start();
try {
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
Tb.start();
}
}
Output:
AAAA
AAAA
BB
BB
AAAA
AAAA
BB
AAAA
BB
BB
AAAA
BB
AAAA
AAAA
BB
BB
AAAA
BB
AAAA
BB
```
Here we have two classes, A and B, both representing threads. When we start the threads using the start method, both threads begin executing in parallel.
## Methods in the Thread Class
- **start():** Starts the thread's execution; the JVM calls the thread's run method.
- **run():** Contains the code to be executed by the thread.
- **join():** Waits for the thread to die. If called on a thread, the calling thread will wait until the thread on which join was called finishes.
- **sleep(long millis):** Causes the current thread to sleep for the specified number of milliseconds.
- **interrupt():** Interrupts the thread, causing it to stop its current task and handle the interruption (if it checks for interruptions).
## CONCLUSION
> Threads are helpful in large applications that require more time and resources to execute. By dividing such applications into multiple threads and executing them in parallel, the performance of the application can be significantly increased.

It’s a... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:17:16 | https://dev.to/parthchovatiya/unlocking-the-magic-of-javascript-beyond-the-basics-1jo7 | webdev, javascript, programming, beginners | JavaScript. The language that powers the web, runs on servers, and even controls drones! It’s a language that has evolved tremendously since its inception in 1995. If you're a web developer, chances are JavaScript is a significant part of your toolkit. But how well do you really know it?
In this post, we'll dive deep into some of the lesser-known features and powerful capabilities of JavaScript that will make you appreciate the language even more. Let's embark on this journey and explore the magic that makes JavaScript so unique and powerful.
## 1. 🎩 The Power of Closures
Closures are one of the most powerful features of JavaScript. They allow functions to access variables from an outer function’s scope even after the outer function has returned. This can lead to some incredibly powerful patterns.
```
function makeCounter() {
let count = 0;
return function() {
count++;
return count;
}
}
const counter = makeCounter();
console.log(counter()); // 1
console.log(counter()); // 2
console.log(counter()); // 3
```
Understanding closures can open up a world of possibilities in your code, from data encapsulation to creating factory functions.
## 2. 🚀 Async/Await: Making Asynchronous Code Synchronous
Asynchronous JavaScript was once the bane of many developers' existence, with callbacks leading to the dreaded "callback hell." Enter async/await, a syntactic sugar built on Promises that allows us to write asynchronous code in a synchronous manner.
```
async function fetchData() {
try {
let response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
let data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error fetching data:', error);
}
}
fetchData();
```
This modern approach not only makes your code easier to read and maintain but also keeps it free from deeply nested callback structures.
## 3. 🌐 Proxies: Intercepting and Customizing Operations
Proxies are a lesser-known but incredibly powerful feature that allows you to intercept and customize operations performed on objects. This can be useful for various tasks, such as validation, formatting, or even implementing reactive programming.
```
const handler = {
get: function(target, property) {
return property in target ? target[property] : `Property ${property} not found`;
}
};
const person = new Proxy({ name: 'Alice', age: 25 }, handler);
console.log(person.name); // Alice
console.log(person.gender); // Property gender not found
```
Proxies can be a game-changer when it comes to adding dynamic behavior to your objects.
## 4. 🧩 Generators and Iterators: Advanced Control Flow
Generators provide a powerful way to handle iteration in JavaScript, allowing you to define an iterative algorithm by writing a single function whose execution is not continuous.
```
function* idGenerator() {
let id = 1;
while (true) {
yield id++;
}
}
const gen = idGenerator();
console.log(gen.next().value); // 1
console.log(gen.next().value); // 2
console.log(gen.next().value); // 3
```
Generators can pause and resume their execution, making them perfect for managing asynchronous workflows or large datasets.
## 5. 🌠 Tagged Template Literals: Custom String Interpolation
Tagged template literals give you more control over string interpolation, allowing you to create custom string processing functions. This feature can be particularly useful for things like internationalization, custom syntax parsing, or even creating domain-specific languages.
```
function highlight(strings, ...values) {
return strings.reduce((acc, str, i) => `${acc}${str}<mark>${values[i] || ''}</mark>`, '');
}
const name = 'JavaScript';
const adjective = 'awesome';
console.log(highlight`Learning ${name} is ${adjective}!`);
// Learning <mark>JavaScript</mark> is <mark>awesome</mark>!
```
With tagged template literals, the sky's the limit for what you can achieve in terms of string manipulation.
## 🌟 Conclusion
JavaScript is a language with immense depth and versatility. By exploring these advanced features, you can take your coding skills to the next level and unlock new possibilities in your projects. Whether you're managing complex asynchronous operations with async/await, adding dynamic behavior with Proxies, or creating custom string templates, there's always something new to discover.
So, what are you waiting for? Dive into these features, experiment with them, and let the magic of JavaScript enhance your coding journey!
Happy coding! 🎉

1,897,116 | Going Global: Building Highly Resilient Systems with Multi-Region Active-Active Architectures | Going Global: Building Highly Resilient Systems with Multi-Region Active-Active... | 0 | 2024-06-22T15:15:50 | https://dev.to/virajlakshitha/going-global-building-highly-resilient-systems-with-multi-region-active-active-architectures-3bk8 | 
# Going Global: Building Highly Resilient Systems with Multi-Region Active-Active Architectures
In today's digital landscape, high availability and fault tolerance are not just buzzwords, they're essential requirements. As businesses expand their reach and user bases grow, the need for uninterrupted service becomes paramount. This demand has driven the adoption of multi-region active-active architectures, a sophisticated approach to ensuring application resilience. This blog post delves into the world of multi-region active-active architectures on AWS, exploring their benefits, use cases, and how they stack up against solutions from other cloud providers.
### What are Multi-Region Active-Active Architectures?
Traditional disaster recovery models often rely on a single primary region with a secondary region on standby. While this approach offers basic protection against regional failures, it often comes with increased latency for users in the secondary region and potential data loss depending on the replication strategy employed.
Multi-region active-active architectures, on the other hand, fundamentally change the game. Instead of a passive secondary region, applications are deployed actively in multiple regions. Traffic is distributed across these regions, meaning users are always routed to a nearby active instance of the application.
Let's break down the core characteristics:
* **Active-Active Deployment:** Both (or all) regions handle live traffic, eliminating the concept of a passive standby region.
* **Data Replication and Synchronization:** Real-time or near real-time data replication ensures data consistency across regions. This is crucial for maintaining data integrity and application state.
* **Global Load Balancing:** Traffic is intelligently routed to the optimal region based on factors like proximity, resource availability, or even cost optimization.
### Why Choose a Multi-Region Active-Active Architecture?
The benefits of this approach are substantial:
1. **Enhanced Availability:** With workloads distributed across multiple regions, your application remains operational even if an entire AWS region experiences an outage.
2. **Reduced Latency:** By directing users to the closest active region, latency is minimized, leading to a better user experience.
3. **Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity:** In the event of a regional disruption, traffic seamlessly fails over to other active regions with minimal to no disruption.
4. **Improved Scalability:** The distributed nature allows you to scale your application horizontally across multiple regions to handle peak loads more effectively.
5. **Compliance and Data Sovereignty:** For organizations operating in multiple geographic locations, multi-region deployments can aid in meeting data residency requirements.
### Use Cases: Where Active-Active Shines
1. **Global Ecommerce Platforms:** Imagine a global online retailer. A multi-region active-active architecture ensures customers worldwide experience minimal latency and uninterrupted shopping experiences, even during peak seasons or unforeseen events. Data consistency safeguards against issues like inventory discrepancies.
2. **Financial Trading Applications:** In the fast-paced world of finance, milliseconds matter. A multi-region active-active setup ensures traders have consistent low-latency access to trading platforms and real-time market data, regardless of their location.
3. **Media Streaming Services:** By distributing content and streaming capacity across multiple regions, media companies can deliver buffer-free streaming to a global audience, even during high-demand periods.

**Advanced Use Case: Building a Global Real-Time Fraud Detection System**
**The Challenge:** A global financial institution needs to analyze transactions in real-time to detect and prevent fraudulent activity. The system must be highly available and operate with minimal latency to effectively combat fraud attempts in real-time.
**Solution Architecture:**
1. **Global Data Ingestion:** Transactions originating from various geographical regions are ingested into Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. Each region has its own dedicated Kinesis stream to ensure low latency data ingestion.
2. **Real-time Data Processing:** Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics (KDA) processes the incoming transaction data streams in real-time. KDA applications, deployed in each active region, utilize machine learning models to analyze transactions for fraudulent patterns.
3. **Multi-Region Data Synchronization:** To enable cross-region analysis and rule enforcement, Amazon DynamoDB Global Tables are utilized. These tables replicate transaction data and model results across all active regions, ensuring consistency and enabling a unified view of potential fraud across the globe.
4. **Global Rule Enforcement:** Based on the analysis performed by KDA and the synchronized data in DynamoDB, real-time decisions are made regarding the legitimacy of transactions. These rules can trigger actions such as flagging transactions for further review or even blocking them entirely.
5. **Centralized Monitoring and Alerting:** Amazon CloudWatch monitors the health and performance of all system components across all regions. It collects metrics, logs, and events, triggering alerts to notify administrators of any anomalies or potential issues.
**Benefits of this Architecture:**
* **Global Coverage and Low Latency:** The multi-region deployment allows for real-time analysis of transactions regardless of their origin, significantly reducing the time window for potential fraudsters to exploit.
* **High Availability and Fault Tolerance:** Even if an entire AWS region experiences an outage, the system continues to operate seamlessly in other active regions, ensuring uninterrupted fraud detection capabilities.
* **Scalability and Elasticity:** Amazon Kinesis, KDA, and DynamoDB offer the scalability to handle massive and fluctuating volumes of transaction data, ensuring optimal performance even during peak periods.
This example illustrates the power and flexibility of multi-region active-active architectures on AWS. By leveraging the right combination of services, organizations can build highly resilient, scalable, and low-latency applications capable of meeting the demands of today's global digital landscape.

1,897,076 | Top State management libs for React Native ✨ | State Management in React Native: A Comprehensive Guide State management is a crucial... | 0 | 2024-06-22T14:49:52 | https://dev.to/manjotdhiman/top-state-management-libs-for-react-native-1dl5 | reactnative, redux, alternative, statemanagement | ### State Management in React Native: A Comprehensive Guide
State management is a crucial aspect of developing robust and scalable React Native applications. It involves managing the state of your app, ensuring that your components reflect the correct data at all times. In this article, I'll explore various state management techniques in React Native, comparing different libraries and approaches to help you choose the best one for your needs.
#### Understanding State in React Native
In React Native, state refers to a data structure that determines how a component renders and behaves. State is mutable, meaning it can change over time, usually in response to user actions or network responses. Proper state management ensures that your app's UI updates correctly when the state changes.
### Built-in State Management
React Native provides a built-in way to manage state using the `useState` hook for functional components and `this.setState` for class components. This method is ideal for simple state management within individual components.
**Example using `useState`:**
```javascript
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
const CounterApp = () => {
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
return (
<View>
<Text>{count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={() => setCount(count + 1)} />
</View>
);
};
export default CounterApp;
```
### Context API
For managing state across multiple components, React Native offers the Context API. It allows you to share state without passing props down manually through every level of the component tree.
**Example using Context API:**
```javascript
import React, { createContext, useState, useContext } from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
const CountContext = createContext();
const CountProvider = ({ children }) => {
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
return (
<CountContext.Provider value={{ count, setCount }}>
{children}
</CountContext.Provider>
);
};
const Counter = () => {
const { count, setCount } = useContext(CountContext);
return (
<View>
<Text>{count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={() => setCount(count + 1)} />
</View>
);
};
const App = () => (
<CountProvider>
<Counter />
</CountProvider>
);
export default App;
```
### Redux
Redux is a popular library for managing state in React and React Native applications. It provides a predictable state container and ensures that state changes are traceable and manageable. Redux is ideal for larger applications with complex state logic.
**Example using Redux:**
1. **Install Redux and React-Redux:**
```bash
npm install redux react-redux
```
2. **Create a Redux Store:**
```javascript
import { createStore } from 'redux';
const initialState = { count: 0 };
const reducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
switch (action.type) {
case 'INCREMENT':
return { ...state, count: state.count + 1 };
default:
return state;
}
};
const store = createStore(reducer);
```
3. **Create React Components and Connect to Redux:**
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import { Provider, useDispatch, useSelector } from 'react-redux';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import store from './store'; // Import your store
const Counter = () => {
const count = useSelector((state) => state.count);
const dispatch = useDispatch();
return (
<View>
<Text>{count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={() => dispatch({ type: 'INCREMENT' })} />
</View>
);
};
const App = () => (
<Provider store={store}>
<Counter />
</Provider>
);
export default App;
```
### MobX
MobX is another state management library that uses observables to track state changes. It is known for its simplicity and flexibility, making it an excellent choice for developers who prefer a more straightforward approach than Redux.
**Example using MobX:**
1. **Install MobX and MobX-React:**
```bash
npm install mobx mobx-react
```
2. **Create a MobX Store:**
```javascript
import { observable, action } from 'mobx';
class CounterStore {
@observable count = 0;
@action increment = () => {
this.count += 1;
};
}
export default new CounterStore();
```
3. **Create React Components and Connect to MobX:**
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import { observer } from 'mobx-react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import counterStore from './store'; // Import your store
const Counter = observer(() => (
<View>
<Text>{counterStore.count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={counterStore.increment} />
</View>
));
const App = () => <Counter />;
export default App;
```
### Zustand
Zustand is a lightweight state management library that provides a more flexible and straightforward approach compared to Redux and MobX. It uses hooks for state management, making it very easy to integrate into React Native applications.
**Example using Zustand:**
1. **Install Zustand:**
```bash
npm install zustand
```
2. **Create a Zustand Store:**
```javascript
import create from 'zustand';
const useStore = create((set) => ({
count: 0,
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
}));
export default useStore;
```
3. **Create React Components and Use Zustand:**
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import useStore from './store'; // Import your Zustand store
const Counter = () => {
const count = useStore((state) => state.count);
const increment = useStore((state) => state.increment);
return (
<View>
<Text>{count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={increment} />
</View>
);
};
const App = () => <Counter />;
export default App;
```
### Valtio
Valtio is another lightweight state management library that uses proxies to manage state. It provides a simple and reactive way to manage state in your React Native applications.
**Example using Valtio:**
1. **Install Valtio:**
```bash
npm install valtio
```
2. **Create a Valtio Store:**
```javascript
import { proxy, useSnapshot } from 'valtio';
const state = proxy({ count: 0 });
const increment = () => {
state.count += 1;
};
export { state, increment };
```
3. **Create React Components and Use Valtio:**
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import { useSnapshot } from 'valtio';
import { state, increment } from './store'; // Import your Valtio store
const Counter = () => {
const snapshot = useSnapshot(state);
return (
<View>
<Text>{snapshot.count}</Text>
<Button title="Increment" onPress={increment} />
</View>
);
};
const App = () => <Counter />;
export default App;
```
### Conclusion
Choosing the right state management solution depends on the complexity and scale of your React Native application. For simple applications, the built-in state management and Context API are often sufficient. For larger applications with more complex state logic, Redux, MobX, Zustand, or Valtio can provide the necessary tools to manage state effectively.
By understanding and implementing the appropriate state management techniques, you can ensure your React Native application remains maintainable, scalable, and responsive to user interactions.
Valtio is my personal favourite for small or medium-sized apps.❤️

Whether you’re building web or mobile applications, having a solid grasp of system design can set you apart and significantly improve your ability to create robust, scalable solutions. In this blog, I’ll demystify system design, explore its origins, discuss key design patterns leading companies use, and provide simple examples to illustrate these concepts.
### What is System Design
System design defines the architecture, components, modules, interfaces, and data for a system to satisfy specified requirements. It involves a high-level understanding of how different parts of a system interact and how they can be organized to handle various tasks efficiently.
### The Origin of System Design
The term "system design" has been around for decades, evolving with the advancement of technology and the increasing complexity of systems. While there isn't a single person credited with coining the term, it has been influenced by pioneers in computer science and software engineering, such as Frederick P. Brooks and his seminal work "The Mythical Man-Month," which emphasizes the importance of design in software projects.
### Why System Design is Important for Developers
Understanding system design is crucial for several reasons:
Scalability: As user bases grow, systems need to handle increased loads without degrading performance.
Maintainability: Well-designed systems are easier to maintain and extend.
Efficiency: Proper design ensures that resources are used optimally, reducing costs.
Reliability: Systems designed with redundancy and fault tolerance in mind are more reliable.
Team Collaboration: A clear design allows team members to understand the system's structure and work together more effectively.
### Design Patterns Used by Companies
Reputed companies like Google, Facebook, and Amazon use various design patterns to build their systems. Here are a few key patterns:
Microservices Architecture: This pattern involves breaking down a large system into smaller, independent services that communicate through APIs. Each service handles a specific business function. Companies like Netflix and Amazon use this pattern to build scalable and maintainable systems.
Example: Imagine an online shopping platform. The platform can be broken down into microservices like user authentication, product catalog, shopping cart, and payment processing. Each service operates independently, allowing for easier updates and scaling.
Load Balancing: To handle high traffic, companies use load balancers to distribute incoming requests across multiple servers, ensuring no single server is overwhelmed.
Example: Think of a restaurant with multiple waiters. Instead of one waiter taking all the orders, the restaurant manager distributes customers evenly among the waiters, ensuring prompt service.
Caching: Caching involves storing frequently accessed data in a temporary storage location to reduce the time taken to retrieve data from the main database. Companies like Facebook use caching to speed up access to user profiles and posts.
Example: Consider a library where popular books are kept on a special shelf near the entrance. This way, readers can quickly find and borrow these books without searching the entire library.
Database Sharding: This technique splits a large database into smaller, more manageable pieces called shards. Each shard contains a subset of the data, which helps improve performance and scalability.
Example: Imagine splitting a massive phone book into smaller sections, each covering a specific region. When looking up a number, you only search the relevant section, saving time and effort.
Stay curious, keep learning, and happy coding!

## What I Built
I have created a GalaxyBot, an informative WhatsApp chatbot that delivers detailed information about stars and galaxies. The bot uses Laravel for the backend, Twilio for WhatsApp messaging, and Cloudflare's AI for generating responses.
- **User Interaction and processing:** Users send the bot queries about stars and galaxies.
- **AI Integration:** The bot passes the query to Cloudflare's AI model, which returns detailed information about the star or galaxy.
- **Response Delivery:** GalaxyBot sends the information back to the user's WhatsApp via Twilio.
## Twilio and AI
I have used **Twilio Messaging API** to set the communication channel for WhatsApp and the AI model `@cf/meta/llama-2-7b-chat-fp16` from **Cloudflare Workers AI** using REST API.
**1. Seamless Messaging:** Twilio's WhatsApp API allows to receive user messages and send responses seamlessly, providing a robust messaging platform.
**2. Dynamic Responses:** Using Cloudflare's AI, the bot generates dynamic and accurate information based on user queries. I am using Cloudflare Workers AI.
**3. Efficient Communication:** The integration of Twilio with AI ensures that users receive detailed and relevant information promptly, making the bot an effective educational tool.
**Demo**
This application is currently running in a sandbox environment. To test the application you can send a message `alphabet-theory` to the number `+14155238886` or scan the QR code from your mobile.

**Code Structure**
This is the arrangement of code in a programming language. it encompasses the use of formatting techniques like whitespace and indentation. The goal of a good structure is reliability and maintainability.
**Python code Structures**
There are various parameters that are used in describing the Python language. There are basic ones that you must grasp. Let's look at some of them:
Comments:
These are used to make the code easy to understand. They start with "#"
Variables:
They are used to store data or values in your code.
Function:
They are used to exercise a certain function once called. They are either built in function or user defined function.
Data Types
Python Supports lots of built in data types including strings and integers.
Operators:
They are used to perform different operations on data and variables.
**Let's Apply these Structures**:
```py
#This right here is a comment
#Defining Variables
a=10
y="happy"
#Defining Arithmetic operation
answer= a+8
#Now for functions
#Examples of built in functions
Print()
Input()
#For user defined functions
Def Applaud (name)
Print("congratulations + name + !")
#Using the function
Applaud ("Meghan")
```

1,897,079 | Demystifying Web Components | Components are individual pieces of code which can be used in different contexts; they often... | 24,065 | 2024-06-22T14:24:28 | https://jamesiv.es/blog/frontend/javascript/2024/03/26/demystifying-web-components | webdev, webcomponents, javascript, beginners | Components are individual pieces of code which can be used in different contexts; they often represent a reusable piece of a design, such as a button or badge, and sometimes even as complex as more prominent elements like carousels and lightboxes. One of the many goals of a component is to bring consistency and cohesion, preventing multiple one-off implementations of the same thing across a codebase or several codebases. Components come in many flavours. For instance, they can be written in a framework like [React](https://react.dev/), [Angular](https://angular.io/), or just [plain CSS](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS). These are all great options, but these days, I've gravitated more towards [Web Components](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components).

## But Why Web Components?
A Web Component is a reusable custom HTML element that encapsulates its functionality and styling; they are built using a set of web platform APIs that are part of the HTML and DOM specifications, including [Custom Elements](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_custom_elements), [Shadow DOM](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_shadow_DOM), and [HTML Templates](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_templates_and_slots). Web components can be used in any JavaScript framework or library or with plain HTML and JavaScript, making them highly [interoperable](https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/interoperable).
```html
<daily-greeting></daily-greeting>
```
Consider Web Components in scenarios where you maintain multiple applications, especially if you have an active design system with a component library. Maintaining a component library written in a specific framework can often result in future applications being built in that same framework, as it's easier to integrate with your design system, even if that framework isn't the right choice for the project. Alternatively, suppose you're creating a new design system with existing legacy applications. In that case, the technology may already be all over the place, making Web Components an attractive choice.
> Several companies have adopted Web Components already, most notably YouTube, GitHub, Adobe, and Alaska Airlines. All of these companies have been around for a long time and have a lot of applications they maintain.
There are more reasons besides interoperability, though. One of the big ones is the Shadow DOM. When used, components placed on a page become shielded from exterior factors, meaning external stylesheets and general document queries cannot mutate your components. This level of protection can be great for a design system, as an element will always look the same way no matter how and where you use it. If you need to support some degree of customization, you can leverage [CSS variables](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Using_CSS_custom_properties) as, by nature, they pierce the Shadow DOM. [You can also use the `part` pseudo-element](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::part) to allow external CSS to target specific things.
```css
daily-greeting::part(message) {
color: #333;
}
daily-greeting {
--message-color: #333;
}
```
Additionally, the Shadow DOM provides the ability to build compositional components with the help of [slots](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/slot). Using these, you can provide an API for consumers to slot their elements into particular parts of a component. Slots are helpful as they allow for customization without being too restrictive. For example, suppose you want to support a header by providing it via a slot instead of an attribute. In that case, you can allow consumers to give a header tag relevant to where the component appears on their page to keep their DOM structure in a logical order. They also allow you to slot whole other components into one another, enabling you to build smaller atomic pieces that form more significant components and patterns when pieced together.
```html
<section>
<h1>My Page</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
<daily-greeting>
<h2 slot="header">Hello, world!</h2>
<daily-icon slot="icon" icon="thumbs"><daily-icon>
</daily-greeting>
</section>
```
Ultimately, adopting Web Components depends on your current and future scenarios. It's easy to become vendor-locked, and Web Components could be a way to avoid that.
## Building a Web Component
So, how are these built? You'd be wrong to expect them to be overly complex and niche. Here's an example of a basic component that uses the `connectedCallback` lifecycle to show a greeting.
```javascript
class DailyGreeting extends HTMLElement {
connectedCallback() {
this.render()
}
render() {
let date = new Date()
let currentHour = date.getHours()
let greeting = ''
if (currentHour < 12) {
greeting = 'Good morning!'
} else if (currentHour < 18) {
greeting = 'Good afternoon!'
} else {
greeting = 'Good evening!'
}
this.shadowRoot.innerHTML = `
<div part="message">
${greeting}
</div>
`
}
}
window.customElements.define('daily-greeting', DailyGreeting)
```
We can easily support slots by adding a `slot` element. In the following example, I've added a default slot to a component which allows you to insert content to create a scrollable list. The following example includes more than slots; it covers several concepts, including attributes.
```javascript
class ScrollSnapCarousel extends HTMLElement {
static get observedAttributes() {
return ['alignment']
}
constructor() {
super()
this.shadow = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' })
this.alignment = 'start';
this.scrollToNextPage = this.scrollToNextPage.bind(this)
this.scrollToPreviousPage = this.scrollToPreviousPage.bind(this)
}
attributeChangedCallback(name, oldValue, newValue) {
if (name === 'alignment') {
this.alignment = newValue
}
}
connectedCallback() {
this.render()
this.gallery = this.shadowRoot.querySelector('#paginated-gallery')
this.galleryScroller = this.gallery.querySelector('.gallery-scroller')
this.calculateGalleryItemSize()
this.gallery
.querySelector('button.next')
.addEventListener('click', this.scrollToNextPage)
this.gallery
.querySelector('button.previous')
.addEventListener('click', this.scrollToPreviousPage)
window.addEventListener('resize', this.calculateGalleryItemSize)
}
disconnectedCallback() {
window.removeEventListener('resize', this.calculateGalleryItemSize)
}
calculateGalleryItemSize() {
const slotElement = this.galleryScroller.querySelector('slot')
const nodes = slotElement.assignedNodes({ flatten: true })
const firstSlottedElement = nodes.find(
(node) => node.nodeType === Node.ELEMENT_NODE,
)
this.galleryItemSize = firstSlottedElement.clientWidth
}
scrollToPreviousPage() {
this.galleryScroller.scrollBy(-this.galleryItemSize, 0)
}
scrollToNextPage() {
this.galleryScroller.scrollBy(this.galleryItemSize, 0)
}
render() {
this.shadowRoot.innerHTML = `
<style>
</style>
<div id="paginated-gallery" class="gallery">
<button class="previous" aria-label="Previous"></button>
<button class="next" aria-label="Next" ></button>
<div class="gallery-scroller">
<slot></slot>
</div>
</div>
`
}
}
window.customElements.define('scroll-snap-carousel', ScrollSnapCarousel)
```
You can project content into specific areas by giving the slot a name. For example, if we wanted to add some disclaimer text beneath the carousel, we could do so by adding another slot for it with the name `disclaimer`.
```javascript
render() {
this.shadowRoot.innerHTML = `
<style>
</style>
<div id="paginated-gallery" class="gallery">
<button class="previous" aria-label="Previous"></button>
<button class="next" aria-label="Next" ></button>
<div class="gallery-scroller">
<slot></slot>
</div>
</div>
<slot name="disclaimer"></slot>
`
}
```
With the custom element registered, all you'd need to do is place the following in the HTML to use the component.
```html
<scroll-snap-carousel alignment="start">
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3ZTvsUeQkOM?si=iNSnBcZRKWsMUB2e" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

```
This is what our component looks like. [You can test it on Codepen, too, if you'd like to mess around with the API and get a more in-depth explanation of what all the methods do](https://codepen.io/jamesives/pen/WNWOojO). If you have never encountered a Web Component before, especially one that utilizes the Shadow DOM, [open up your browser debugger](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/overview) to inspect it!
{% codepen https://codepen.io/jamesives/pen/WNWOojO %}
### The Shadow DOM Is Optional
You don't need to use the Shadow DOM; it's optional. Not using the Shadow DOM could be a good choice if you intend to provide smaller components with the expectation that others will apply additional styling or logic and don't want to offer part selectors or CSS variables for everything. However, removing the Shadow DOM also eliminates the ability to slot content, which is a significant loss and could make building specific components that rely on composition more challenging.
Using the previous example, I worked around the lack of slots by manipulating the tree with `document.createDocumentFragment` and appending child items in the correct spot after the component connects. It could be better, but it does work. As with anything, use your best judgment based on your needs to determine whether you should leverage the Shadow DOM. It can be more of a hindrance not to use it if you have a sound system for supporting variables as you lose the encapsulation benefits.
```javascript
class ScrollSnapCarousel extends HTMLElement {
static get observedAttributes() {
return ['alignment']
}
constructor() {
super()
this.alignment = 'start'
this.scrollToNextPage = this.scrollToNextPage.bind(this)
this.scrollToPreviousPage = this.scrollToPreviousPage.bind(this)
this.calculateGalleryItemSize = this.calculateGalleryItemSize.bind(this)
this.ingestChildren = this.ingestChildren.bind(this)
}
attributeChangedCallback(name, oldValue, newValue) {
if (name === 'alignment') {
this.alignment = newValue
}
}
connectedCallback() {
this.ingestChildren()
this.render()
this.gallery = this.querySelector('#paginated-gallery')
this.galleryScroller = this.gallery.querySelector('.gallery-scroller')
this.galleryScroller.appendChild(this.fragment)
this.gallery
.querySelector('button.next')
.addEventListener('click', this.scrollToNextPage)
this.gallery
.querySelector('button.previous')
.addEventListener('click', this.scrollToPreviousPage)
this.calculateGalleryItemSize()
window.addEventListener('resize', this.calculateGalleryItemSize)
}
disconnectedCallback() {
window.removeEventListener('resize', this.calculateGalleryItemSize)
}
ingestChildren() {
this.fragment = document.createDocumentFragment()
Array.from(this.children).forEach((child) => {
this.fragment.appendChild(child)
})
}
calculateGalleryItemSize() {
const nodes = Array.from(this.galleryScroller.children)
const firstElement = nodes.find(
(node) => node.nodeType === Node.ELEMENT_NODE,
)
this.galleryItemSize = firstElement.clientWidth
}
scrollToPreviousPage() {
this.galleryScroller.scrollBy(-this.galleryItemSize, 0)
}
scrollToNextPage() {
this.galleryScroller.scrollBy(this.galleryItemSize, 0)
}
render() {
this.innerHTML = `
<style>
</style>
<div id="paginated-gallery" class="gallery">
<div class="gallery-scroller"></div>
<button class="previous" aria-label="Previous"></button>
<button class="next" aria-label="Next" ></button>
</div>
`
}
}
window.customElements.define('scroll-snap-carousel', ScrollSnapCarousel)
```
If you want to try it out, [the example above is available on Codepen](https://codepen.io/jamesives/pen/jORwKQZ). Like the previous example, [open your browser debugger to see how it's constructed](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/overview), and you'll notice the lack of shadow root in the component tree.
{% codepen https://codepen.io/jamesives/pen/jORwKQZ %}
[A very active thread on GitHub discusses the concept of a Shadow DOM that supports a stylable root](https://github.com/WICG/webcomponents/issues/909). Still, it's in the discussion phase, so it will be long before this manifests into something usable.
### Consider a Framework
Consider adopting something like [Lit](https://lit.dev/) or [Stencil](https://stenciljs.com/) to build Web Components. These frameworks provide standard utilities for working with Web Components and handle everyday tasks such as change detection, server-side rendering, localization, etc. I've personally worked with Lit and find it helpful for preventing common mistakes and pitfalls. Additionally, they provide a series of best practices for authoring components, which I often refer to. [Something Stencil provides which is unique is a polyfill for `slot` for usage in non-Shadow DOM components](https://ionic.io/blog/enhanced-support-for-slots-outside-of-shadow-dom), which may be attractive to some.
Here's an example of a basic Lit element with TypeScript support. It's similar to my previous examples and ultimately results in something similar through class extensions.
```typescript
import {html, css, LitElement} from 'lit';
import {customElement, property} from 'lit/decorators.js';
@customElement('simple-greeting')
export class SimpleGreeting extends LitElement {
static styles = css`p { color: blue }`;
@property()
name = 'Somebody';
render() {
return html`<p>Hello, ${this.name}!</p>`;
}
}
```
The philosophy of these frameworks is similar to that of any other: they help you move faster. With these, you get all the benefits of using Web Components without writing lots of boilerplates every time you write a component.
### General Tips
I've learned a lot after working with Web Components for a while. Here's a general list of things I've picked up.
* <b>Be careful with inheritance in cases where a component doesn't define its own DOM tree and instead renders a pre-configured version of another.</b> If you have components that follow this pattern, you run the risk of exploding your applications with additional DOM nodes, especially if you forward slots. Consider using a class extension instead, or reconsider if a new component is necessary.
* <b>Document your components.</b> Tooling is available to [analyze JSDoc comments and produce artefacts from the output](https://custom-elements-manifest.open-wc.org/analyzer/getting-started/), such as README files. [An excellent add-on for Storybook will take that output and automatically generate controls for your component API](https://github.com/break-stuff/wc-storybook-helpers).
* <b>Use a linter and write unit tests.</b> Web Components have a habit of silencing errors, which can be frustrating to track down. The more tooling you add around them, the better your developer experience. [Lit for example provides a linter that can catch common mistakes](https://lit.dev/docs/v1/lit-html/tools/#linting).
* <b>Keep tabs on the industry.</b> Web components are still evolving, and some things are constantly being discussed or considered. Get involved in the conversation!
> You'll make mistakes, especially if it's your first time working with Web Components. While they are similar to working with other frameworks, they have their unique quirks that aren't always obvious at first.
## Conclusion
Overall, I really enjoy working with Web Components. While some have given them a bad rap, the technology is progressing in a favourable way, and many teams are starting to seriously consider them. They are the backbone to the design system I work on and have been a great way to ensure consistency across our applications.

Forex trading, also known as foreign exchange trading or currency trading, is the act of buying and selling currencies with the aim of making a profit. Central to this market are trading pairs, which are the foundation of all forex transactions. Understanding trading pairs is crucial for anyone looking to succeed in forex trading.
#### Explanation of What Trading Pairs Are
In forex trading, currencies are traded in pairs. This means that when you trade, you are simultaneously buying one currency and selling another. Each currency pair represents the exchange rate between two currencies. For example, in the EUR/USD pair, the first currency (EUR) is the base currency, and the second currency (USD) is the quote currency. The value of the pair indicates how much of the quote currency is needed to purchase one unit of the base currency.
[CLICK HERE TO OPEN TRADING ACCOUNT
](https://one.exnesstrack.net/a/ctauzaa2ge)
For instance, if the EUR/USD pair is quoted at 1.2000, it means that 1 Euro is equivalent to 1.20 US Dollars. If the exchange rate rises to 1.2500, the Euro has strengthened against the Dollar, meaning it now takes 1.25 US Dollars to buy 1 Euro.
#### Basic Concept of Currency Pairs in Forex Trading
Forex pairs can be broadly categorized into three groups:
1. **Major Pairs**: These pairs include the most traded currencies globally, typically featuring the US Dollar (USD) as one half of the pair. Examples include EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and USD/JPY. Major pairs are known for their high liquidity and lower spreads.
2. **Minor Pairs**: These pairs do not include the US Dollar but consist of other major currencies. Examples are EUR/GBP, AUD/JPY, and GBP/CAD. Minors are less liquid than majors and can have higher spreads.
3. **Exotic Pairs**: These pairs involve one major currency and one currency from an emerging or smaller economy, such as USD/TRY (US Dollar/Turkish Lira) or EUR/SGD (Euro/Singapore Dollar). Exotics can be more volatile and have higher spreads due to lower liquidity.
#### Importance of Choosing the Right Pairs for Trading Success
Choosing the right currency pairs to trade is a critical decision that can significantly impact your trading success. Different pairs offer different trading conditions, such as varying levels of volatility, liquidity, and spread costs. Here’s why selecting the appropriate pairs is important:
1. **Volatility**: Some currency pairs, like exotic pairs, are more volatile than others. Higher volatility can mean larger price swings and more trading opportunities, but it also means higher risk. Traders need to choose pairs that match their risk tolerance and trading style.
[

2. **Liquidity**: Major pairs are highly liquid, meaning they are easier to buy and sell without causing significant price changes. High liquidity ensures that traders can enter and exit positions with minimal slippage. For day traders and scalpers, trading pairs with high liquidity is often preferable.
3. **Spread Costs**: The spread is the difference between the bid and ask price of a currency pair. Lower spreads reduce trading costs, which is particularly important for high-frequency traders. Major pairs typically have lower spreads compared to minor and exotic pairs.
#### How Selecting Appropriate Pairs Can Influence Trading Outcomes
The choice of currency pairs can greatly influence your trading outcomes in several ways:
1. **Profit Potential**: Different pairs offer varying levels of profit potential. While major pairs may provide steadier, more predictable movements, exotic pairs might offer greater profit opportunities due to their higher volatility.
2. **Risk Management**: Selecting pairs that align with your risk management strategy is essential. Trading highly volatile pairs without proper risk management can lead to significant losses. Conversely, trading more stable pairs can help in managing risk effectively.
3. **Market Analysis**: Some pairs are more influenced by specific economic events or geopolitical developments. Understanding the factors that impact your chosen pairs allows for better market analysis and more informed trading decisions.
4. **Trading Strategy Compatibility**: Certain pairs may be more suitable for specific trading strategies. For example, pairs with high volatility are ideal for breakout strategies, while more stable pairs might be better for trend-following strategies.

1,285,729 | Setting Up Nginx with Certbot for HTTPS on Your Web Application | Securing your web application with HTTPS is crucial for protecting data integrity and privacy. This... | 0 | 2024-06-22T14:18:05 | https://dev.to/yousufbasir/setting-up-nginx-with-certbot-for-https-on-your-web-application-n1i | nginx, certbot, ssl, webdev | Securing your web application with HTTPS is crucial for protecting data integrity and privacy. This guide will walk you through the steps to set up Nginx as a reverse proxy and use Certbot to obtain a free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt.
### Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
1. A domain name pointing to your server's IP address.
2. A server running Ubuntu (or any other Linux distribution).
3. Nginx installed on your server.
### Step 1: Configure Nginx
First, we need to set up Nginx to proxy requests to our web application. Open your Nginx configuration file or create a new one for your domain:
```bash
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/my.website.com
```
Add the following configuration:
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name my.website.com www.my.website.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:5173;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
}
```
This configuration listens for HTTP requests on port 80 and proxies them to your web application running on `localhost:5173`.
### Step 2: Enable the Nginx Configuration
Create a symbolic link to enable the configuration:
```bash
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/my.website.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
```
Test the Nginx configuration for syntax errors:
```bash
sudo nginx -t
```
If the test is successful, reload Nginx to apply the changes:
```bash
sudo systemctl reload nginx
```
### Step 3: Install Certbot
Certbot is a tool that automates the process of obtaining and renewing SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt. Install Certbot and the Nginx plugin:
```bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
```
### Step 4: Obtain an SSL Certificate
Run Certbot to obtain an SSL certificate and configure Nginx to use it:
```bash
sudo certbot --nginx
```
Follow the interactive prompts. Certbot will:
1. Detect your Nginx configuration.
2. Allow you to select the domain you want to secure.
3. Automatically obtain and install the SSL certificate.
4. Modify your Nginx configuration to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS.
Certbot will update your Nginx configuration to something like this:
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name my.website.com www.my.website.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
listen [::]:443 ssl;
server_name my.website.com www.my.website.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.website.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.website.com/privkey.pem;
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:5173;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
}
```
### Step 5: Verify HTTPS
After Certbot completes, verify that your site is accessible via HTTPS by navigating to your website url (e.g. `https://my.website.com` ) in your browser.
### Conclusion
You have successfully set up Nginx as a reverse proxy for your web application and secured it with an SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt using Certbot. This setup not only secures your web application but also improves its trustworthiness and SEO ranking.

1,897,051 | AWS : IAM : Root Account | This article on DEV Community explains AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) and its capabilities... | 0 | 2024-06-22T14:17:29 | https://dev.to/oladipupoabeeb/aws-iam-root-account-2mb4 | aws, cloud, terraform, webdev | This article on DEV Community explains AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) and its capabilities for managing users, groups, and permissions within AWS. It highlights how IAM allows creating users with unique credentials and assigning permissions through policies. The article includes examples of using Terraform to automate the creation of IAM users, access keys, and policies.
Link:[WHAT IS IAM](https://dev.to/oladipupoabeeb/aws-identity-access-management-iam-16d8)
IAM is a service that allows you to create and manage users and groups, and to assign permissions that control access to AWS resources.
**The Root Account** is the initial account created when you sign up for AWS. It has full administrative access to all AWS services and resources in the account. The root account is identified by the email address used during account creation.
**Important:** The root account should only be used for tasks requiring unique permissions. For everyday administrative tasks, create IAM users with the necessary permissions.
## How to Secure the Root User
## 1. Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
· Log in to the AWS Management Console using your root account.
· Navigate to the IAM service.
· In the left-hand navigation pane, click on Dashboard.
· Under the Activate MFA on your root account section, click on Manage MFA.
· Follow the instructions to set up MFA for your root account.
## 2. Create an admin group and assign the appropriate permission
**_Step-by-Step Guide to Creating an "Admins" Group in AWS IAM_**
**Log in to AWS Management Console:**
Open your web browser and go to the AWS Management Console. Log in with your credentials.
**Navigate to IAM:**
In the AWS Management Console, type "IAM" in the search bar and select IAM to open the Identity and Access Management dashboard.
**Create a New Group:**
In the left-hand navigation pane, click on User groups.
Click the Create group button.
**Set Group Name:**
On the Create user group page, enter a name for your group. For example, "Admins".
Click Next to proceed.


**Attach Permissions Policies:**
On the Attach permissions policies page, you need to add the policies that will define the permissions for the group.
Scroll through the list or use the search bar to find the policy named AdministratorAccess.
Check the box next to AdministratorAccess. This policy provides full access to AWS services and resources.

**Review and Create the Group:**
Review the group details, ensuring that the correct policy is attached.
Click Create Group.

## 3. Create a User account for admins
- Navigate to the IAM service.
- In the left-hand navigation pane, click on Users and then Create User.

- Enter a username (e.g., UserAdmin).
- Select Programmatic access and AWS Management Console access.
- Set a custom password or allow the user to create one at first sign-in.
- Click Next: Permissions.

- In the policy list, search for AdministratorAccess.
- Check the box next to AdministratorAccess and click Create group.

- Ensure the new group is selected and click Next: Tags.
- Add any tags if necessary and click Next: Review.
- Review the details and click Create user.


## 4. Add users to the admin group

7. Monitoring and Troubleshooting
8. Conclusion
## 1. Introduction to Nginx
Nginx is an open-source web server that can also be used as a reverse proxy, load balancer, mail proxy, and HTTP cache. Due to its event-driven architecture, it handles multiple client requests efficiently, making it suitable for high-traffic websites and applications.
### Key Features of Nginx:
- High concurrency
- Load balancing
- Reverse proxy capabilities
- Static file serving
- SSL/TLS support
- HTTP/2 support
## 2. Installing Nginx
To install Nginx, you need to have root or sudo privileges on your server. The following steps demonstrate how to install Nginx on a typical Linux-based system such as Ubuntu.
### Installation on Ubuntu:
First, update your package list:
```sh
sudo apt update
```
Then, install Nginx:
```sh
sudo apt install nginx
```
### Verify Installation:
After installation, you can verify that Nginx is installed correctly by checking its version:
```sh
nginx -v
```
You can also start the Nginx service and check its status:
```sh
sudo systemctl start nginx
sudo systemctl status nginx
```
## 3. Setting Up Your Application
For the purpose of this guide, we will deploy a simple web application. You can replace this with your actual application.
### Example Application:
Let’s assume we have a simple Node.js application. Here’s a basic example:
**app.js:**
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.send('Hello, world!');
});
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(`Server is running on port ${PORT}`);
});
```
### Running the Application:
Make sure you have Node.js and npm installed. Then, you can run your application with:
```sh
node app.js
```
Your application should now be accessible at `http://localhost:3000`.
## 4. Configuring Nginx
Nginx configuration files are typically located in the `/etc/nginx` directory. The main configuration file is `nginx.conf`, and additional site-specific configurations are often stored in the `/etc/nginx/sites-available` directory with symlinks in the `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled` directory.
### Create a Configuration File:
Create a new configuration file for your application:
```sh
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp
```
Add the following configuration:
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
server_name your_domain_or_IP;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
}
```
Replace `your_domain_or_IP` with your actual domain name or IP address.
### Enable the Configuration:
Create a symlink in the `sites-enabled` directory:
```sh
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
```
### Test Nginx Configuration:
Before restarting Nginx, test the configuration for syntax errors:
```sh
sudo nginx -t
```
### Restart Nginx:
If the configuration test is successful, restart Nginx to apply the changes:
```sh
sudo systemctl restart nginx
```
Your application should now be accessible through Nginx at `http://your_domain_or_IP`.
## 5. Starting and Enabling Nginx
To ensure Nginx starts on boot, enable the service:
```sh
sudo systemctl enable nginx
```
You can start, stop, and restart Nginx using the following commands:
```sh
sudo systemctl start nginx
sudo systemctl stop nginx
sudo systemctl restart nginx
```
## 6. Securing Your Deployment with SSL
For production applications, securing your site with SSL is crucial. We will use Let’s Encrypt to obtain a free SSL certificate.
### Install Certbot:
Certbot is a client for Let’s Encrypt that automates the process of obtaining and renewing SSL certificates.
On Ubuntu, you can install Certbot and the Nginx plugin with:
```sh
sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
```
### Obtain an SSL Certificate:
Run Certbot to obtain a certificate and configure Nginx:
```sh
sudo certbot --nginx -d your_domain
```
Follow the prompts to complete the setup. Certbot will automatically edit your Nginx configuration to use the obtained SSL certificate.
### Automatic Renewal:
Let’s Encrypt certificates are valid for 90 days, but Certbot can handle renewals automatically. To set up automatic renewal, add a cron job:
```sh
sudo crontab -e
```
Add the following line to run the renewal twice daily:
```sh
0 0,12 * * * /usr/bin/certbot renew --quiet
```
## 7. Monitoring and Troubleshooting
### Checking Nginx Logs:
Nginx logs are helpful for troubleshooting issues. By default, they are located in `/var/log/nginx`.
- Access logs: `/var/log/nginx/access.log`
- Error logs: `/var/log/nginx/error.log`
### Common Commands:
- Reload Nginx after changes: `sudo systemctl reload nginx`
- Check Nginx status: `sudo systemctl status nginx`
- View Nginx logs: `sudo tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log`
### Troubleshooting Tips:
1. **502 Bad Gateway**: This usually indicates that Nginx cannot connect to your application. Ensure your application is running and check the port configuration.
2. **403 Forbidden**: This error occurs due to permission issues. Check the permissions of your web root and the Nginx configuration.
3. **404 Not Found**: Ensure your application routes are correctly defined and the server block in the Nginx configuration points to the correct location.
## 8. Conclusion
Deploying an application using Nginx as a web server involves several steps, from installing Nginx and setting up your application to configuring Nginx and securing your deployment with SSL. With the above guide and relevant code snippets, you should be able to deploy your application efficiently and securely.

1,896,668 | Simplifying Persistent Storage in Kubernetes: A Deep Dive into PVs, PVCs, and SCs | In the world of Kubernetes, managing persistent storage efficiently stands as a cornerstone for... | 0 | 2024-06-22T13:19:39 | https://dev.to/piyushbagani15/simplifying-persistent-storage-in-kubernetes-a-deep-dive-into-pvs-pvcs-and-scs-1p3c | kubernetes, storage, persistent, volume | In the world of Kubernetes, managing persistent storage efficiently stands as a cornerstone for deploying resilient and scalable applications. Kubernetes not only orchestrates containers but also offers robust solutions for handling persistent data across these containers.
This blog dives into the critical components of Kubernetes storage management: Persistent Volumes (PV), Persistent Volume Claims (PVC), Storage Classes (SC), and Volume Claim Templates. These elements are pivotal in making Kubernetes a powerhouse for maintaining stateful applications amidst the dynamic nature of containerized environments.
## Persistent Volumes (PV)
Persistent Volumes are one of the building blocks of storage in Kubernetes. A PV is a networked storage unit in the cluster that has been provisioned by an administrator or automatically provisioned via Storage Classes. It represents a piece of storage that is physically backed by some underlying mass storage system, like NFS, iSCSI, or a cloud provider-specific storage system.
### Characteristics of PVs:
- Lifecycle Independence: PVs exist independently of pods' lifecycles. This means that the storage persists even after the pods that use them are deleted.
- Storage Abstraction: PVs abstract the details of how storage is provided from how it is consumed, allowing for a separation of concerns between administrators and users.
- Multiple Access Modes: PVs support different access modes like ReadWriteOnce, ReadOnlyMany, and ReadWriteMany, which dictate how the volume can be mounted on a node.
## Persistent Volume Claims (PVC)
Persistent Volume Claims are essentially requests for storage by a pod. PVCs consume PV resources by specifying size and access modes, like a kind of "storage lease" that a user requests to store their data.
### How PVCs Work:
- Binding: When a PVC is created, Kubernetes looks for a PV that matches the PVC’s requirements and binds them together. If no suitable PV exists, the PVC will remain unbound until a suitable one becomes available or is dynamically provisioned.
- Dynamic Provisioning: If a PVC specifies a Storage Class, and no PV matches its requirements, a new PV is dynamically created according to the specifics of the Storage Class.
## Storage Classes (SC)
Storage Classes define and classify the types of storage available within a Kubernetes cluster. They enable dynamic volume provisioning by describing the "classes" of storage (different levels of performance, backups, and policies).
### Features of SCs:
- Provisioning: Admins can define as many Storage Classes as needed, each specifying a different quality of service or backup policy.
- Automation: Based on the Storage Class specified in a PVC, Kubernetes automates the volume provisioning, without manual PV creation by the administrator.
## Example:
Consider a scenario where a Kubernetes cluster needs to dynamically provide storage for a database application:
```
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: db-storage
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
storageClassName: fast-disk
resources:
requests:
storage: 100Gi
```
This PVC requests a 100 GiB disk with read-write access on a single node. The fast-disk Storage Class is designed to provision high-performance SSD-based storage, tailored for database applications.
## How It Works:
- PVC Creation: The above PVC is created, requesting specific storage characteristics.
- Dynamic Provisioning: If no existing PV matches the PVC, the Storage Class fast-disk triggers the dynamic creation of a new PV that fits the criteria.
- Binding: The newly created PV is automatically bound to the PVC, ensuring the database application has the necessary storage.
## Conclusion
Understanding PVs, PVCs, and SCs is crucial for effectively managing storage in Kubernetes. These components offer a flexible, powerful way to handle persistent data, ensuring applications can be highly available and resilient. As Kubernetes continues to evolve, the capabilities and complexity of managing storage will likely increase, offering even more robust solutions for cloud-native environments.
## In a nutshell
- PVs act as a bridge between the physical storage and the pods, offering a lifecycle independent of the pods.
- PVCs allow pods to request specific sizes and access modes from the available PVs.
- SCs automate the provisioning of storage based on the desired characteristics, facilitating dynamic storage allocation without manual intervention. | piyushbagani15 |

In multi-threaded environments, when multiple threads interact with the same object or collection concurrently, there is a risk of ConcurrentModificationException due to unsynchronized modifications.
## Background
> **ConcurrentModificationException** is thrown by List in Java when the collection is structurally modified (e.g., adding or removing elements) during iteration. This is due to the **modification count** maintained internally by the list, which is checked by iterators to detect **concurrent modifications**. If the modification count changes unexpectedly, it signals that the collection's structure has been altered concurrently, ensuring safe and consistent iteration behavior.
## Solution:
Ensure thread safety by using synchronized blocks or concurrent data structures to manage access and modifications to shared objects or collections.
1. Java ConcurrentModificationException (Without Synchronization)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Example demonstrating ConcurrentModificationException when modifying a collection concurrently without proper synchronization.
```java
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;
public class ConcurrentModificationExample{
public static void main(String[] args) {
List<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<>();
numbers.add(1);
numbers.add(2);
numbers.add(3);
// Thread 1: Iterating and modifying the list
Thread thread1 = new Thread(() -> {
Iterator<Integer> iterator = numbers.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
Integer number = iterator.next();
System.out.println("Thread 1::value=>"+number);
}
});
// Thread 2: Adding an element to the list concurrently
Thread thread2 = new Thread(() -> {
try {
numbers.add(4);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
});
thread1.start();
thread2.start();
System.out.println("List after modification: " + numbers);
}
}
/*
Output:
Exception in thread "Thread-0" java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
at java.base/java.util.ArrayList$Itr.checkForComodification(ArrayList.java:1043)
at java.base/java.util.ArrayList$Itr.next(ArrayList.java:997)
at ConcurrentModificationExample.lambda$main$0(ConcurrentModificationExample.java:16)
at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:829)
*/
```
2. Java ConcurrentModificationException Avoided (With Synchronization)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Example demonstrating how to avoid ConcurrentModificationException by using proper synchronization.
```java
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;
public class ConcurrentModificationExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
List<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<>();
numbers.add(1);
numbers.add(2);
numbers.add(3);
// Thread 1: Iterating and removing elements with proper synchronization
Thread thread1 = new Thread(() -> {
synchronized (numbers) {
Iterator<Integer> iterator = numbers.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
Integer number = iterator.next();
System.out.println("Thread 1::value=>"+number);
}
}
});
// Thread 2: Adding an element to the list concurrently
Thread thread2 = new Thread(() -> {
synchronized (numbers) {
numbers.add(4);
}
});
thread1.start();
thread2.start();
System.out.println("List after modification: " + numbers);
}
}
/*Output:
Thread 1::value=>1
Thread 1::value=>2
Thread 1::value=>3
List after modification: [1, 2, 3, 4]
*/
```
## Explanation:
- **ConcurrentModificationException Example:** The first example demonstrates a scenario where Thread 1 attempts to iterate over element s from the list while Thread 2 adds an element concurrently, leading to ConcurrentModificationException due to lack of synchronization.
- **ConcurrentModificationException Avoided Example:** The second example shows how to avoid ConcurrentModificationException by using synchronized blocks around critical sections of code where the list is being iterated or modified. This ensures that only one thread accesses the list at a time, preventing concurrent modification issues.
## Conclusion:
Implementing proper synchronization techniques such as using synchronized blocks or concurrent data structures from java.util.concurrent package is essential when working with shared mutable data structures in multi-threaded environments. This ensures thread safety and prevents runtime errors like ConcurrentModificationException in Java programs. | manishthakurani |

So, I woke up at 7 AM :alarm_clock: today, did some morning walk, yoga for 30 mins. Went to temple & then started the routine.
## Today's Plan - :100:
- **June 22 (Sat)**: Study linked lists, practice easy problems. (4 hours)
Watch the videos for linked list from Udemy Course.
[Master the Coding Interview: Data Structures + Algorithms
](https://www.udemy.com/share/1013ja3@8z3jnE8L7842ZCmS_vaEAdTJmJKxuxPyDvHeXHPejNI9tEGIqTlqmNy897xhr198/)
**:white_check_mark: What is linked list?** :chains:
- A linked list is a linear data structure that stores a collection of data elements dynamically.
- Nodes represent those data elements, and links or pointers connect each node.
- Each node consists of two fields, the information stored in a linked list and a pointer that stores the address of its next node.
- The last node contains null in its second field because it will point to no node.
- A linked list can grow and shrink its size, as per the requirement.
- It does not waste memory space.
**:white_check_mark: The linked list mainly has three types, they are:**
1. Singly Linked List
2. Doubly Linked List
3. Circular Linked List

**:white_check_mark: Essential Operation on Linked Lists** :traffic_light:
1. Traversing: To traverse all nodes one by one.
2. Insertion: To insert new nodes at specific positions.
3. Deletion: To delete nodes from specific positions.
4. Searching: To search for an element from the linked list.
**:white_check_mark: Application of a Linked List**
- A linked list is used to implement stacks and queues.
- A linked list also helps to implement an adjacency matrix graph.
- It is used for the dynamic memory location.
- The linked list makes it easy to deal with the addition and multiplication of polynomial operations.
- Implementing a hash table, each bucket of the hash table itself behaves as a linked list.
- It is used in a functionality known as undo in Photoshop and Word.
- With that, you have reached the end of this tutorial on Linked Lists.
**:white_check_mark: Some leet code question which I solved today** :man_technologist:
1. [linked-list-cycle](https://leetcode.com/problems/linked-list-cycle/description/)
2. [Merge Two Sorted Lists](https://leetcode.com/problems/merge-two-sorted-lists/description/)
3. [Remove Duplicates from Sorted List](https://leetcode.com/problems/remove-duplicates-from-sorted-list/description/)
4. [Intersection of Two Linked Lists](https://leetcode.com/problems/intersection-of-two-linked-lists/description/)
All the above leet code questions are solved from my end, I hope you will also try the same. If you can't solve it no problem. Learn it and try again. Never give up.
