SSH Fails to Connect

Symptom

sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed for RSA

Solution, make sure your ~/.ssh/id_rsa has the proper permissions, it should be read/write for the owner and none for anyone else.

Mac Chrome Fresh

Create a bash file, something like "chrome-fresh.sh" with the following, it will randomize a file for a new user profile in your temp folder

#!/bin/bash
tfile=$(mktemp /tmp/chrome.XXXXXXXXX)
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --user-data-dir=/tmp/$tfile

Or Launch a Single browser, delete the temp folder when you want a fresh one.

cd /tmp
rm -rf james_bonds_browser
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --user-data-dir="/tmp/james_bonds_browser"

If you launch a chrome fresh grab yourself some plug-ins if you need them.

Announcing Httpbin.org

June 12, 2011
The development of Requests, the Python HTTP Module for Humans, led to some annoying testing practices. Relying on random websites and services in order to test different capabilities of the HTTP client became annoying quickly. PostBin.org was perfect for testing POST request behavior, but is usless for other situations. I was hoping to extend its functionality to other request types, but it turns out that PostBin runs on the Google App Engine platform. No.

Thus, httpbin.org was born.

Example Endpoints

To get a feel for what HttpBin does, here are a few endpoint examples:

$ curl http://httpbin.org/ip :

{"origin": "::ffff:24.127.96.129"}
$ curl http://httpbin.org/user-agent :

{"user-agent": "curl/7.19.7 (universal-apple-darwin10.0) libcurl/7.19.7 OpenSSL/0.9.8l zlib/1.2.3"}

NodeJS Connection Pooling

Refer: https://github.com/oracle/node-oracledb/blob/master/doc/api.md#connpoolcache

12.4.3 Connection Pool Cache
When pools are created, they can be given a named alias. The alias can later be used to retrieve the related pool object for use. This facilitates sharing pools across modules and simplifies getting connections.

Pools are added to the cache by using a poolAlias property in the poolAttrs object::

oracledb.createPool (
  {
    user: 'hr',
    password: mypw,  // mypw contains the hr schema password
    connectString: 'localhost/XEPDB1',
    poolAlias: 'hrpool'
  },
  function(err) {  // callback 'pool' parameter can be omitted
    . . . // get the pool from the cache and use it
  }
);
