Programming Notes

Earlier today I was trying to upload an app to the web for download as enterprise app.
But first, the .plist file needs to be hosted on a https server.

So I enabled Apache SSL default SSL configuration with a2enmod ssl and `service a2ensite` default-ssl (something like that) then restart the server.

HTTPS worked. So I moved all the files in enterprise folder to /var/www/ssl.

Finally was not getting some certificate error when clicking on the download link in the enterprise site, but the app couldn’t be downloaded. I move the .plist to be hosted in S3 since they have HTTPS by default, and wasted quite a lot of time and found out that the .ipa file cannot be in the HTTPS site. I think it might be due to the self-signed SSL.

Moved the .ipa file out of the SSL folder, and it finally downloads.

The .plist URL field should also be modified to the full URL pointing to the .ipa file. http://domain.com/enterprise/myapp.ipa for example.

Enter in console…

typeof object

Object can be any variable, objects, functions, strings, whatever…just play around with it.

alias nb='/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans\ 7.0.1.app/Contents/MacOS/netbeans --open'

Insert above code to ~/.profile
You can open file from terminal with nb index.php

Run

sudo vi /usr/share/vim/vimrc

Insert..
syntax on "turns on highlighting
set ai "turns on auto indent
set nu "turns on line numbers

I am not setting syntax on and set nu as auto in the rc file.
Perfer to turn them on as needed.

:sp (horizontal)
:vs (vertical)

CTRL+W hjkl or up, down, left right to move around.

Found myself stuck in Vi easy mode.

CTRL+L
:qa!

Quit without saving

Settings -> Keyboard -> Services -> New Terminal at Folder

(restart Finder with killall Finder if it doesn’t work)

Sudo Edit the file /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Refer to the examples in the file.

Insert Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf into /Applications/XAMPP/etc/httpd.conf

Edit /etc/hosts and insert an entry for your doman that points to 127.0.0.1

Edit: For Lion users, add ::1 for every localhost domain that you have. This will speed things up a lot! source: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6841421/mac-osx-lion-dns-lookup-order

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

Have to create a localhost domain when you are using virtual domains.

This is the default:

<VirtualHost *:80>
 DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs"
 ServerName localhost
 ErrorLog "logs/error_log"
 CustomLog "logs/access_log" common

 <Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs">
 Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks
 AllowOverride all
 Order allow,deny
 Allow from all
 </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Lets say you created a new branch called “testbranch” on remote.

git fetch orgin

To fetch data from remote to local.

git merge origin/testbranch

To merge new “testbranch” branch.

git push origin testbranch OR git push origin testbranch:testbranch

Former is a shorthand, latter is simply saying to push local testbranch to remote testbranch.

git diff

Shows changes between unstaged files and last commit

git diff head

Similiar to git diff

git diff --cached

Shows changes between staged files and last commit
