Dynamic Development to Static Deploy

   I believe this is an approach beneficial to any application for performance reason. If an application needs to be scalable but can remove the dynamic references there is a opportunity for improvement. With task runner or build process like gulp, grunt and asp.net mvc's bundle for example this is the same solution. What I'm point to is the things I want to create in javascript but don't necessarily need to be dynamic. For example Angular's template property with directives or component's and even routes. While I do like to use templateUrl in development for performances reason I want to include it in the statement as a template. If I'm trying to make the most of my code I need to inject directly
but for validation or organizational reasons I want to point it dynamically.
   This isn't a new problem in the computer science field but I think a lot of web developers will agree to injecting regardless if its development. It makes the code a little less manageable in my opinion but the performance is a higher priority. So to go back to these task runners or build processes we can change all that. This gets me to where I want to be in my development. So my code is dynamic for development but "static" or injected in this sense for deployment. I know there's probably a bad choice of words for describing this problem but its just how I've logical grouped it with similar situations where the output really is static and just pointing to a variable.
   I haven't found any grunt/gulp projects that convert the template/templateUrl properties. However I did find one that converts ng-includes. This helps out with my partial views but for now I'm looking to parse my javascript and looking for the templates to be injected.

Solutions
  • grunt-nginclude
    • With $templateCache 
  • gulp watch-partials
var templateCache = require('gulp-angular-templatecache'),
    watch = require('gulp-watch');

gulp.task('generate', function () {
    gulp.src('public/*/partials/*.html')
        .pipe(templateCache('templates.js', {module: 'YOURMODULENAME', standalone: false}))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('public/js'));
});
 gulp.task('watch-partials', function () {
    gulp.watch('public/*/partials/*.html', ['generate']);
});

Mongodb Cheatsheet

This cheat sheet is based on the latest version of mongodb, which initial had setup and didn't encounter any problems. However that all changed when I was working remote and forgot I disabled the port no my network, rather than with the server. So I went pointing around where I didn't need to and ended up messing things up. The Best tutorial out there is of course on digital ocean for my setup on ubuntu 16.04 , this articles isn't so much about getting setup. I just wanted to include it because I found myself looking back at it to see if I missed a step. Bugs/Problems Now comes all the messed up things I found and had to deal with. firewall - Port seems to be open, but connection refused try using 0.0.0.0 in the bin_ip for the /etc/mongo.conf try sudo ufw disable and check to see if it works without the firewall (probably still wont but worth a shot), then just sudo ufw enable. Make sure port 27017 is open. Then check this  linux - Connection refused to MongoDB e...

Installing Windows on Acer chromebook 15 cb3-532

Much of my notes are just small problems I faced (what's new!) haha. Either way this was a really fun project to do for a friend and I got excited once I research all the information. You can find instruction videos but what helped me the most was the coolstar website. Sadly they don't have parameters in the url so I can link the machine I used in this article. -  https://coolstar.org/chromebook/windows-install.html Scared of messing with the bios? Don't be!    So you need to first remove the screw to put a legacy bios on the machine. Its easy to backup the chrome os one and with the same steps to change it. You can go back in and revert to the chrome version bios. Its that last part that had me worried and its very easy to do.  Problems getting into Developer Mode?   Follow the instructions to the letter, during the step to disable the OS verification, press Ctrl-D to boot into os. If you hear two beeps I would go back to set one. I got in a loo...
