Travis-Ci & Saucelabs Environment Variables

Firebase's example on how to auto deploy with Travis shows us a more secure way rather than how I did.  fassetar/jquery-maskmoney  if I can create a similar approach with this project I would feel better about the security. https://github.com/fassetar/site/blob/master/.travis.yml https://github.com/fassetar/jquery-maskmoney/blob/master/.travis.yml https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/environment-variables/ https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/encryption-keys/ https://saucelabs.com/platforms More coming soon...

Firebase Database with App Indexing

 Since the release of MyPatco a lot has improved and one of the major improvements was changing the backend architect. For the user this meant faster data in real-time. As well as a smaller app because most the data is handled in the plugin. However recently I've been contacting the firebase team with little success on making a firebase datase indexable for Google search. This is by design as the sitemap for the domain on the database prevents indexing. Note that the domin used for your firebase database is different from your your firebase hosting. The only solution currently around this as I know is hosting the database in gcloud as well as the website to edit the sitemap. As of 4/20/2017 from firebase team - " Our engineering team has confirmed that we don't support crawling non-HTTP network traffic like UDP, and the crawl failures you see in Search   Console's   Fetch As Google tool won't   block   your apps from being indexed by Google and getting re-engag...

My Patco Now Runs on Firebase

   Over the past two months I've do to made a critical decision due to costs and completely redid the backend for mypatco. Of course there was breaking changes but that wasn't related to the bad reviews that came in (caused by another developer). Instead of using azure now the app is hosted on firebase which everything I need starts out for free. Key Features Free Https Later needed for Geolocations Free use of Custom Domain  *Databasing (real-time) Json type database greatly reduces time for developing with api's Static Hosting Plugins for Angular with Database Authentication The first two really sold me on the idea but the static hosting had me worried since a lot of my data was handle at the middle tier level. Pretty soon though I had my data flatten and it just made sense but the process of updating my database is still in the works luckily though not all my code had to be scraped. To get the database corrected I still have my azure code to handle ...

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...
