Jquery Cheatsheet

Time to time I still use jquery and honestly don't have too many complaints about using jquery over more modern frameworks. Either way keep coming back to this page for reminders or small bugs in my code that I forget to add. I think the best approach for anyone is to create plugins for their needs and just keep expending around that.

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...

Presteps to Making My Own CMS Part II

Before I try to create my own cms I looked recreating  some middlware for blogger. To be clear I didn't create my own database layer simple used Oauth and the blogger api's with a re-skinned UI/UX using Material Angular. I also created some tools for myself awhile I'm using the app and started creating a backup on github process like I talked about a few years back. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31915099/how-do-i-get-an-instance-of-iappbuilder-elsewhere-in-my-asp-net-mvc-5-2-3-applic  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32501238/how-exactly-iappbuilder-createperowincontextt-should-be-used/36044219#36044219  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19669125/send-receive-email-with-google-oauth-2-and-asp-net-mvc https://www.asp.net/downloads/starter-kits/blog-engine

Powershell Cheatsheet

   One of the things that I have been getting use to is powershell, I'm not a server administrator.  Or at least if I'm going to be one I prefer linux. Most of my server are and I'm going to have a update here once I get my lab setup. For now this is how I manage my job and correct the systems that have gone wild. http://www.anotherchris.net/misc/starting-and-stopping-all-iis-sites-in-powershell/ http://stackoverflow.com/a/21674873/1265036 https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/be3afe83-4a7e-48a0-b2e7-95fd081a7571/login-to-website-using-powershell?forum=winserverpowershell http://stackoverflow.com/a/25035181/1265036 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15528492/display-all-sites-and-bindings-in-powershell https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12789516/powershell-download-files-from-url-that-does-not-include-file-name-in-the-ur https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6204003/kill-a-process-by-looking-up-the-port-being-used-by-it-from-a-bat https://sta

Git Cheatsheet

I'm always handling the code wherever I go so maybe its time I shared my notes. I'm really surprised but I should with my experience how many developers don't know git. msysgit - git: 'credential-cache' is not a git command How do I update the password for Git? How do you attach a new pull request to an existing issue on github Squash commits! I'm always forgetting this and its really simple to do if you remember both commands. git rebase -i xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx git push --force origin master "where xxxxxxxxxx is the SHA of the commit upto which I've to squash" .  Get username git config user.name Change Email git config user.email Caching Password on Windows. git config --global credential.helper wincred More coming soon...

Gimp Cheatsheet

I really should just get a graphic's designer to do all my work but that's probably the words of every developer has said. I don't have the skills or patience but sometimes my needs are very simple and that's really what I work with for my games. Someday I'll pay for one, maybe when I make actually money off my games.

Presteps to Making My Own CMS

A lot of these notes here are just my experiences and design changes to orchard cms for the pre-setup into how I will create my own cms. For my own cms I will not be using any of orchard's code but my experiences will help, also by getting familiar with orchard so I can move forward with my employer on other legacy applications that are dependent on aspnet 4.5. So its a win on both sides. Major Design Changes: SafeMode Theme - Removed/Moved Originally I was completely against having this feature at all however with some thought I think its a matter of default behavior in the core/module features. I did something similar with the Admin Theme menu.cshtml. Instead of changing the tag element view in the core file I simple rewrote the look of the admin menu. Instead of the admin menu adding all the classes to the li tag in the for-loop they are placed in the link tag for fontawesome. The key is no css or javascript just the html. SafeMode can only be used for display purposes at

UI-Bootstrap Collapsible Sticky Footer

    I could have done this a lot of ways and ultimately I made it work with javascript modifying the class names. I also had to create multiple class names which I didn't like to much, I might come back and improve this but for now this is was I got. Also I call bootstrap+angularjs = ui-bootstrap, not sure if that's common sense but thought I should include it somewhere in my notes. Working Example: http://plnkr.co/edit/2N9ENlbw3bSvg1W9n0ch?p=preview This little css was key to prevent any kind of animation on the collapse, which would result in a scrollbar appearing on the body. A scrollbar can appear when the content's too long but not on the sticky foot duh! .no-animate { transition-duration: 0.0125s; } Research Angular-UI Bootstrap Collapse without animation - Stack Overflow http://jsfiddle.net/paulalexandru/Z2Lu5/  - Was looking at this to see if I could reuse it but I ended but just doing my own thing.

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 loop where it s
