i cant do that ofc👍

[mild lance]

I think pycharm prefers that you use a different name in the walrus assignment

it doesn't like that you are reassigning the value mass directly after looping over it

[mild lance]

In docker desktop I can see a bunch of images with grey text interfacer-bot, the tag I've been using for builds, but, besides that there are a bunch of randomly generated names. Does it create a new image on each build and am I intended to delete the old ones?

And in that case, what are the randomly generated names and what is the actual image name?

[mild lance]

Also, somewhat unrelated, but what's "different" about postgresql images. It looks like they aren't built, but just run directly. It seems like only one can be available because I see the container referred to as postgres in docker compose

docker run --name some-postgres
ah okay, so they can be differentiated

So, now I'm just wondering the two things:

1. What are all of the different images I see in docker desktop?
2. How come postgres images are "just ran" rather than built?

[mild lance]

3. How can my other different container access the 5432 port of my database container? (It's working fine, but I'm not sure why 😅)
   Here's my docker-compose.yml:

version: "3.8"
services:
  db:
    image: postgres
    restart: always
    environment:
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: postgres
      POSTGRESS_USER: postgres
      POSTGRES_DB: interfacer
    volumes:
      - "./pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data"
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"

  bot:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    depends_on:
      - db

I'm connecting to the database in the bot service with these creds:

    credentials = {"user": "postgres", "password": "postgres",
                   "database": "interfacer", "host": "db", "port": "5432"}

[eternal flicker]

1. I have no idea since I do not use docker desktop
2. Those images are basically pre-written Dockerfiles that you can directly use, rather than having to write your own.
3. They're on the same network (https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/container-networking/) and therefore are allowed to communicate with one another through iptables rules (Docker handles this). Docker also uses iptables to prevent cross-network communication for example (https://docs.docker.com/network/iptables/).

[obtuse saddle]

Can anyone explain why when I launch Python script with env variables set in Anaconda env via conda env config vars set my_var=value in Pycharm, I can't retrieve them via os module? I want to set them on per-environment basis and I don't want to manually create and modify shell script files. I can set them up in run configuration, but it's annoying to do that for every entry point (including tests).

[rich nymph]

How do I make it so that my application would automatically pull, and restart, when a merge happens in github?

[rich nymph]

Hey guys even though for vsc my font is set to Fira Code, why isn't it changing it???

[gloomy trellis]

anyone here work with codeartifact and docker

[pine fern]

azure vs. gcp vs. aws

[cold gate]

For me, they're just all something to get used to. They're massive platforms and when you first start out, they all look like a jungle of different services that you have to find your way in (at least to me). I know @clever raven likes GCP the best of the three, if I remembered that correctly; I have no real opinion yet, but I'm trying to have an open mind, because I'll probably have to work with all three at some point due to the nature of my job.

[clever raven]

eh, yeah.

AWS is the one I'm familiar with. GCP is the one I'd like to learn more about, because it just looks a bit less painful - but I'm sure there's a minefield of hidden complexity there too

[warm pollen]

I’ve heard some good things about GCP from sysadmins

AWS is also a good choice, or DO and Linode if you prefer independent providers

It is easy to get trapped in the AWS pricing methods though

[clever raven]

AWS is a nightmare to work with, for many reasons. there's tons of surface complexity, but there's also a lot of hidden complexity. Stuff like, services not being supported in all regions, instance types not being available in all regions, extremely poor documentation, mismatches between different versions of awscli, or between the UI and the CLI tools...

every time you want to do something complicated (like migrate stuff to a new region), you just get hit by a tidal wave of invisible complexity.

and every single error message is cryptic as fuck

but it's very powerful

a tip for europeans - don't use eu-west-1, it's super slow compared to more recent regions (like eu-north-1)

[solid frost]

they each excel in various areas depending on your use case, i don't know enough to recommend one over the other

[pine fern]

this is all good stuff to keep in mind

its funny that you mention different regions bc my classmate is a cloud engineer and sometimes has to work with clients that are european (we are stateside)/has to open instances in those regions and he says you can get in big legal trouble due to the GDPR (since in the states theyre used to doing whatever)

[soft axle]

I'm using PyCharm, and a recurring issue I've encountered is that the output console seems to update once every half second. Is there any way to change that? Thanks in advance!

[pliant meadow]

Hi, I need a bit of help with something that I wasn't sure where to ask, and figured this channel could be suitable: I want to test the limits of my laptop, but not interested in going full advanced computing stuff, I want to get an idea of how my laptop fares, in a determined task in a somewhat standard use. In other words, I have a code, that not only requires a lot of memory to process data, but at the same time I need extra memory to save data from that algorithm. Now I want to study the trade-off of how much I can compute, and how much data I can save, and I can't stream data to a file while the algorithm runs, everything will be stored in python's kernel (I'm not sure that's the correct use of the word kernel tbh). Is there a tool that will help me? Something like a monitor of ram used against available ram?

I wanna learn python can anyone help me find a good ide for mobile plz

[torn creek]

pydroid 3 is a good one for mobile

[heavy knot]

Thank you

[wooden ibex]

There is not, that's the problem

if you are needs are simple, it's great, if they are complex (like security requirements or anything else), it's painful experience

at work, it's been really frustrating laying over 3rd party stuff to make up for Google lack of features, my work just decided that going Kubernetes was "CLOUD!" and called it done so we can't use a ton of serverless stuff

also, I'm finding their Python libraries for various serverless stuff to be hit or miss, like Firestore in Python is really really weird

[pine fern]

good to know about GCP too

Hello all, anyone using VScode for python3 development?

[night quest]

Why not PyCharm?

[sly sleet]

why not vscode?

[night quest]

PyCharm is like a smart guy out of the box

VS Code is like "I can be smart with some plugins"

[sly sleet]

pycharm has a bunch of random features that I will never use

[wooden ibex]

Bunch of people use VScode

It’s second most popular behind py charm

[calm mirage]

hi, this is probably my first message on this channel,
I would like to ask you what tools do you use for programming?
I use my text editor (i.e vscode) and git.
anything else I could use to improve productivity and workflow?

[night quest]

All depends what are you creating

[calm mirage]

hmm?

[night quest]

If you are creating some kind of APIs you should consider downloading something like Insomnia to easy test it

perhaps related to how output is set in your project? have you tried printing somewhere else in the project?

[night quest]

Are you sure? Which IDE are you using?

[arctic flicker]

it's pycharm. I've moved on from that, but these mysterious, minor issues keep popping

[night quest]

Are you sure that are you watching on console output? In PyCharm there are Frames and Console tabs

I apologize if this is in the wrong help section. I am new to programming. I have two issues that I can't seem to fix independently. It's very frustrating. The core problem is, I want to use Scrapy but I can't get scrapy to download successfully with the latest python, pycharm, and Windows OS.
Through googling I have discovered that Windows users just need to have miniconda/anaconda to use Scrapy, and pip itself will throw many errors otherwise.
So, I'm on Windows trying to install miniconda or anaconda. I can't get either.
I have tried to download miniconda from docs.conda.io on two different days. Every time I click on the corresponding Python+Windows download link, it states "Connecting..." then the error, "This site can't be reached. repo.ananconda.com took too long to respond."
Alternatively, I have visited https://www.anaconda.com/download/#windows and tried to download the full Anaconda. I get the same error here as well.
My internet is working fine on all other websites and my popup blocker is disabled. Any idea why I can't download either of these? Any advice is welcome. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

hi guys im here

i need some help in pycharm

[rain belfry]

does anyone here know what the difference between github's repository secret and environment secret is?

[small light]

@rain belfry I can only imagine repository secret being bound to the fact that you have commited the code to a repository. While environment secret is a secret that is local to your environment, eg the pc ur developing on. but when testing / building you are using the repository secret

[rain belfry]

both of them are on the github repository page, which can then be used in the github actions for example. so they are unrelated to my pc

[small light]

ah.. you are talking about github! dooo

yea so.. an environmental is literally that,e.g production environment / testing / build environment and dev environment

so you have a set of variables for each of those stages. E.g dev always uses sqlite for database.

but maybe a specific repository needs to special care for an environment, you just specify that in repository secret

[rain belfry]

hmm

so its just like a namespace? giving Environment priority over Repository ?

[small light]

not sure about priority 😛

[rain belfry]

I do know that Environment has priority over Repository

but what I don't understand is,
If I want to add lets say a certain token to be used by Github Actions to push code somewhere, should I put that in Environment or Repository secrets?

[small light]

let's say that you have a central server for authentication, for dev ti's always id.dev.server.local - that go into environment secret. ALll repository shares this.

just add it to repository 😛

unless u plan on using multiple environments and complicated stuff

[rain belfry]

oki, thanks 🙂

hey, did i do something stupid and turn something off accidentally?

i can no longer follow stack traces and quickly jump to lines in code when ctrl clicking in the terminal

now when i hold ctrl over terminal text it just highlights small parts of it and if i click it, it puts them into the top input box that pops up for some shortcuts

always saying "no results found", but i don't even know what it's doing exactly, it's not searching for it in the document or anything, seems to be something else

like, this pops up

I have two SQL docker containers, one development, one is production, on different servers

What's the best way to move the development data to the production server? I

I'm thinking exporting the data (it's not much, under 5000 entries) and putting it into the dockerfile, or exposing the production database, with a third database for fallback if something goes wrong

I'm hoping someone can suggest a better solution, or improve on one of mine. Please tag me if you think of anything. Cheers!

Export the data from the development and re-import to prod?

[worldly marlin]

Anyone know of a guide that will let me know how to setup my pypi package to be globally available after pip install? For example I did pip install twine, then I was just able to do python -m twine.

I'd like to do that with my own package.

[dusty maple]

@worldly marlin If your package has a __main__.py module, you should be able to do that in a relatively straightforward manner

[worldly marlin]

ah, would an __init__.py do the same thing or does it have to be __main__.py

[dusty maple]

They're distinct

[worldly marlin]

kk, i'll test out adding the __main__.py thanks

[worn forum]

hi im working on a bot rn and ive been using repl.it but just got VS
im so confused on how to use it

i want to make a bot that replies to every message with a 🍌 emoji and makes a copy of chat

[upper oyster]

Are you using VS or VS Code?

@worn forum

[worn forum]

idk the dif

[upper oyster]

Well you should be able to tell which one you have from the name of the thing you installed :)

But anyway

Visual Studio is a full fat IDE

Visual Studio Code is more of a lightweight text editor

[worn forum]

i have just vs

[upper oyster]

Ok, while you can do Python programming in full-fat Visual Studio, I know basically know one who does

The most common choices are PyCharm if you want an IDE, or Visual Studio Code if you want a text editor

[worn forum]

i have it i just am havig troubl wit things like windows for errors or shells or terminal and idk how to change the appearance so the numbers are on the side of each line

[upper oyster]

Which one do you have?

[worn forum]

VS

[upper oyster]

I'd recommend not to use VS for Python

[worn forum]

ok

what should i use

[upper oyster]

Especially if you are going from repl.it

Visual Studio Code

[worn forum]

ok

[upper oyster]

You'll find it much simpler to use

[worn forum]

okee

thank you

[upper oyster]

What made you install Visual Studio for Python in the first place?

[barren iron]

@small light yes. Ideally something that would work through the equivalent of GitHub actions to K8s

I don't actually use these programs, but I use equivalent versions I've coded myself

[final sky]

Anyone knows any good IDE for Python? PyCharm is taking seconds just to validate stuffs and it didn't even catch simple things like undeclared attributes...

[upper oyster]

PyCharm usually catches that stuff. It's possible your PC is too slow for it though.

Use VS Code instead

Not technically an IDE but still

[final sky]

Probably, ughh...

[upper oyster]

What are your PC specs?

[final sky]

But it didn't catch something like this:

class A:
    def __init__(self):
        self._do_thing()
    def _do_thing(self):
        pass

class B(A):
    def _do_thing(self):
        self._some_attr = 10
    def another_thing(self):
        self._some_atts = 11  # <--- didn't catch undefined attribute
        self._some_attr = 12  # <--- didn't autocomplete the attribute

[final sky]

i5 with 8GB RAM

Probably insufficient RAM

[upper oyster]

I would expect PyCharm to run on something like that, but that would be the minimum requirement really

If you are running PyCharm and Chrome and a bunch of other stuff, you really want 16GB

And I'm pretty sure PyCharm would catch those issues. Let me boot up my PC real quick

so there's issue 1

And that's issue 2

I've literally just turned on my PC and it's already using 7GB out of 16GB

[final sky]

Let me check if I still have this problem

[upper oyster]

That's with no chrome

[final sky]

It works now, huh

[upper oyster]

Lol

[final sky]

Probably it was the cache or insufficient RAM

I had to copy, paste, and modify the same code over and over again. But I need to change the method definition like in the example I gave.

It was broken most of the time

[upper oyster]

Sounds like your PC is struggling to use PyCharm

Do note that if you see PyCharm "indexing" or "generating skeletons" then you might not get this analysis show up, or as quickly

Hi, I build the tool lifecockpit.com. Can somebody help test it?

[real coral]

devops?

[remote olive]

so this is my first time working, like professionally, on a project. The project is growing and everytime I add a feature, I just test if the feature is working properly and ship the project to my client. The problem is - sometimes, when I add a feature, some previous code generates errors, and because the project is quite big, I dont test every thing in the project (literally just the code I added and ship), I found out about unit testing and currently using it, the problem is, I don't think unittesting is what I'm looking for since as I'm testing it, it gathers data from external environment. Can anyone direct me which way to go from here on?

[thorny mauve]

hi at which value is the chr() funktion out of rage?

pls help

[remote olive]

@thorny mauve go to AVAILABLE HELP CHANNELS

[thorny mauve]

oh sry im not native english speaker and i was to lazy to do all the channel names on the google translater

[upper oyster]

@remote olive it would be good if you could isolate the parts of your codebase that call out to get data from external environments

That way, you could unit test the parts that don't connect

And just do, say, in memory processing of the data

[thorny mauve]

@remote olive lol where is this channel i can not find it :C

[remote olive]

@upper oyster I see, but what about the parts of my code that requires those data? is unit testing appropriate for those as well?

#help-lemon @thorny mauve

[thorny mauve]

ah thx

[upper oyster]

Depends how much you've managed to isolate the parts that connect to the external environment

If you think a function needs testing and it does connect externally, and it can't easily be isolated any further, you can look into using mocks

unittest.mock

You can replace any function or class with a Mock() item during testing

It's useful to have and to use, but don't go crazy with it, especially for unit testing

If you are doing an integration test, then obviously mocking is fine

[remote olive]

is there any, module perhaps?, for doing integration testing?

just like unittest for unit testing?

or you just manually write some test script for it?

[upper oyster]

I'm not aware of any

What would you want a module to do?

[remote olive]

am not exactly sure, I guess I have to look more into automated testing, rn my client is complaining cuz of the silly errors, looks like I know where to go now, thanks a lot man

[upper oyster]

No worries :)

Yeah, automated tests are so important

I could never have the confidence to make any changes to my work codebase without them

By not testing, you've built up quite a bit of tech debt

[remote olive]

I see, I just realized that there's also that part in software engineering, are you using any frameworks or tools in doing automated testing of your projects?

[upper oyster]

So, unit testing is automated testing

Using tools like unittest you build up an automated test suite

And then you can run it every time you make a change to your project

And it's automatically testing all your code for regression, as well as the new stuff

[remote olive]

yea that's exactly what I'm looking for, but my problem is, like, say I have a class named MyClass and I have two methods like method1 and method2, and I have to test both methods, I have to instantiate MyClass twice

something I find uncomfortable so I thought it wasn't unittesting am looking for

[upper oyster]

So what if you have to create the class twice?

Like, how long does the class take to instantiate

Is your concern performance or code reuse?

[remote olive]

code reuse in the testing suite perhaps, say you have this class:```
class MyCar:
def start():
pass
def stop():
pass

how should I test both methods?

[upper oyster]

I would have no problem with creating two test methods that instantiated the class twice

Now, unittest has a concept of a setUp method

That runs before each test method in a class

So you can have something like this

class TestMyCar(unittest.TestCase):

    def setUp(self):
        self.car = MyCar()

    def test_mycar_start(self):
        self.car.start() ...

    def test_mycar_stop(self):
        self.car.stop() ...

However, you don't really need to write it like that. Code reuse isn't really achieving much here, and is making the code slightly more difficult to read (nothing crazy though)

Tests don't have to be DRY like code, and you can redefine the class multiple times even if there's a little bit of repetition

[remote olive]

ahh I see, now I get a better look at how things get done here. Man that's very very helpful, thanks a ton. my only problem now is if I should look back and make a proper test suite for the whole project, lel hahaha, I should have known about this from the start, but anyway this is almost life changing, thanks a ton man

[upper oyster]

So, here's the thing

To prevent yourself from regression issues, yes, you will need to create a full test suite

And so, by skipping the tests, you've gotten yourself into what's called "tech debt"

It would have been quicker to write tests as you went along

At least, quicker in the long term

But for short term speed, now you have to slow down, and you have to slow down more than if you had just written tests as you went along

Cos you have to write tests for code written a while back

[remote olive]

I guess I haven't noticed about this before cuz the project was not that big, but now, I spend a whole lot of time doing manual testing on almost every corner of the project

[upper oyster]

Right

[remote olive]

majority of my time now is really just spent on testing before shipping to client, it's a good thing I followed my curiosity to here

[upper oyster]

How long do you think it would take you to write a full regression test suite?

[remote olive]

am not sure, I was thingking of trying to rewrite majority of the codebase from scratch cuz it got quite messy, I looked into this as well, like how to systematically do things, but am considering rewriting majority of the codebase from scratch, and I suppose the test suite along with it

[upper oyster]

Oh no, don't rewrite without tests

Especially if it's already too big for you to handle

Write the tests first, and then refactor

Like, if you have to rewrite from scratch, you could introduce all kinds of bugs that aren't present in the current system

You need tests to protect you from introducing regression errors

[remote olive]

I don't follow, do you mean I write test scripts before writing the actual project scripts?

or did I misunderstood?

[upper oyster]

I'm saying that, if you completely rewrite your code from scratch, you could introduce errors not present in the original system

Here's an article you should probably read first

From the founder of Stack Overflow. It's a bit dated but it's still relevant IMO

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/04/06/things-you-should-never-do-part-i/

[remote olive]

man I really need this, I started coding as a hobby, I never imagined I would find some occupation in this industry so I really never tried to understand the system of software engineering

[upper oyster]

Right

This article was actually quoted by Guido himself when talking about the Py2 to Py3 migration

In the migration, they upgraded the codebase, they didn't rewrite it completely

[remote olive]

I think I noticed on a few of my side projects before as well, some that I rewrote from scratch again, it never really went bigger than the original one cuz I guess I got quite bored tryin to rewrite the whole thing

[upper oyster]

Lol, well that's a different issue lol

When you are being paid for it, that will motivate you instead

But your problem will be more around, can you ensure you won't introduce regression when you rewrite?

And how very different will the rewrite be anyway?

Presumably you'll use the same language. Will your new system be significantly architecturally different?

If not, then for sure there's no reason to rewrite

[remote olive]

I suppose I better not, I mean, I tried to make the code as stable as possible, by stable, I mean try it's best not to brick and be able to properly report properly if something was not handled well, my only problem is, there's some (if not a lot) of inconsistencies, like first I used snake case, then moved to camel case, then some internal philosophies now change and conflict overtime, prolly cuz I found something better.

but I think I should just do my best to go through those one by one, and making unit tests in each area in the process

[upper oyster]

Right - that kind of stuff you can fix really easily without a rewrite

As the Stack Overflow owner said, you can fix that in 5 minutes with a macro in Emacs

[remote olive]

reading the article, I guess I understand more what you mean introducing more bugs into the code

[upper oyster]

Not saying you have to use Emacs of course

I wouldn't wish that on anybody :P

But you get what they mean :)

[turbid hollow]

Hi @ all

i'm using VS -Code

Is there a good way to Colorize the SourceCode like that for Python

[upper oyster]

You mean syntax highlighting?

You should get that from installing the Python extension

You don't need anything more than that

Unless you want to customise the colours as well?

[turbid hollow]

exactly

I think it is easier to read

if for example Int(), float(), str() had another color

[upper oyster]

Not sure if you can customise it to that extent

[turbid hollow]

there is something like MagicPython

i install it but somehow it doesn't work for me

[wooden ibex]

It's working fine in my VSCode, make sure you have both Python/Pylance running

[turbid hollow]

How does it look

??

Would you send me a Screenshot

for comparrison

[wooden ibex]

Discord upload is broken

[turbid hollow]

Oh ok

i installed Pylance but nothing changed

[turbid hollow]

do i neet to configure something?

[stray pine]

Anyone here familiar with scrapy

[stray pine]

What u trying to do?

[turbid hollow]

Highlighting the Syntax

[turbid hollow]

like that

[stray pine]

Which editor are u using

[turbid hollow]

VsCode

[stray pine]

Sorry, not too sure

[turbid hollow]

Same Same 😄

What are you trying to do with scrapy?

[stray pine]

Attention VSCode users: MagicPython is used as the default Python highlighter in Visual Studio Code. Don't install it unless you want or need the cutting edge version of it. You will likely see no difference because you're already using MagicPython.

Ummm..... No it's not

I read that but it doesn't look like the Image

I was thinking the same

[wooden ibex]

Pretty sure it's been replaced

[turbid hollow]

[wooden ibex]

Are you using Pylance?

[wooden ibex]

Did it activate?

[turbid hollow]

before i get every time a Message to install it

[wooden ibex]

Go into Preferences

[turbid hollow]

mom

[wooden ibex]

It will require VSCode restart quite possibly

[wooden ibex]

then not sure what to tell you

[turbid hollow]

i don't know

Story of my life 😆

[turbid hollow]

But tank you for trying

[stray pine]

How do run my code in a python venv in vs code

U can’t have venv/Scripts/activate in vs code terminal

Why is that

[wooden ibex]

Create venv, VSCode will pick up on it

[stray pine]

I did

[wooden ibex]

I think it has to be named .env/.venv/env/venv

[stray pine]

I got to that

But how do I run it in vs terminal

[wooden ibex]

OS?

[stray pine]

Windows

[wooden ibex]

So sometimes default Powershell Windows it creates doesn't pick up on it

generally creating a new one will

[stray pine]

python3 file name.py in vs terminal uses main base

[wooden ibex]

is it activated?

[stray pine]

It is in cmd

But can’t get that in vs code

[wooden ibex]

That's Powershell, no clue about Cmd, I don't use it

[stray pine]

How do you get that in vscode

[wooden ibex]

it mostly activates automatically for me but if it doesn't, it's <env folder>/scripts/Activate.ps1

[stray pine]

Thanks for the help, not working for me

[wooden ibex]

Are you using Powershell

what does default terminal say?

[stray pine]

Nope

[wooden ibex]

PS will be PS

Cmdline will be <I'm ancient and shouldn't be looked at>

[stray pine]

I can get it to work in cmd and powershell

But I want it to work in vs code terminal

[wooden ibex]

Terminal by default uses Powershell so if it works in Powershell, it should work fine in terminal

[stray pine]

Anyways, getting late 💤

Thanks though

how do i add threads

to my tool

[night quest]

Using threading.Thread for example?

!d threading.Thread

[rancid schooner]

`threading.Thread`

class threading.Thread(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={}, *, daemon=None)```
This constructor should always be called with keyword arguments. Arguments are:

*group* should be `None`; reserved for future extension when a `ThreadGroup` class is implemented.

*target* is the callable object to be invoked by the [`run()`](#threading.Thread.run "threading.Thread.run") method. Defaults to `None`, meaning nothing is called.

*name* is the thread name. By default, a unique name is constructed of the form “Thread-*N*” where *N* is a small decimal number.

*args* is the argument tuple for the target invocation. Defaults to `()`.

*kwargs* is a dictionary of keyword arguments for the target invocation. Defaults to `{}`.

If not `None`, *daemon* explicitly sets whether the thread is daemonic. If `None` (the default), the daemonic property is inherited from the current thread.

If the subclass overrides the constructor, it must make sure to invoke the base class constructor (`Thread.__init__()`) before doing anything else to the thread.... [read more](https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html#threading.Thread)

Oh i had that too

this is about policy

[stray pine]

did you manage to fix it?

[turbid hollow]

yes it was not so hard

only a one liner in PowerShell

let me check

[stray pine]

How do you change the theme?

[turbid hollow]

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

[turbid hollow]

wich theme?

[stray pine]

I've downloaded pylance, but I can't get it to work

[turbid hollow]

i tell you

one by one

let us check your executionpolicy first

[stray pine]

you ran that line in powershell?

[turbid hollow]

1. You need to Run PowerShell as Admin

2. Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

3. J or A

That's it

There are 2 posibility's unrestricted or RemoteSigned i would recommend RemoteSigned as long as it works for you

[stray pine]

Thanks, much appreciated

[turbid hollow]

Restart VsCode and run you script

does it work for you?

[stray pine]

ye

[turbid hollow]

if you type

Get-ExecutionPolicy

You can check it

and change the policy again if you need that

[stray pine]

How would you revert back to normal

[turbid hollow]

it should be restricted

[stray pine]

How did you change pylance

[turbid hollow]

restricted

which theme do you use?

[stray pine]

Markdown Editor dark

[mighty condor]

How do I disable logging for a specific docker container? I have a docker-compose.yml with a pgadmin image there, among others. I want to see output from all other containers, but pgadmin one is cluttering my view. Seems the spam is coming from flask pgadmin frontend, but I'm not sure.
At this point, I'm thinking I can redirect standard output to null on the pgadmin container, but not sure how to do that with environment variable (or if possible)

Welp after an hour of looking, I found it right after posting here. What you need is:

logging:
      driver: "none"

for the container you want to disable logging in

[tawny temple]

How about specifing all services except the pgadmin service?

docker-compose logs service1 service2

[mighty condor]

I would do that if I ran with docker-compose up -d right? Right now I run in attached mode

[tawny temple]

Yeah

Your solution is more convenient

[mighty condor]

Ok cool to learn, thanks!

[tawny temple]

Though I probably wouldn't completely nuke the logs

[graceful patio]

that's a problem with their computer

[soft citrus]

right, but I was wondering if there is some way to get pip to use zip files instead
I thought python could interpret zip files of python files as a module, and I thought that was more or less what an egg was, but I'm probably wrong

I've been searching for an automation framework in Python - something to let me write and schedule small tasks like copying information from an email to an API, uploading a file to somewhere, accepting information to a webhook, etc., etc., and handle the scheduling and storage (and ideally secrets/credentials) for those tasks for me.
I've actually written my own framework for this but it's not very good and I imagine someone else must have already written this.

Things like Ansible and Nornir seem to be more about managing devices than performing data-oriented tasks.

I have a feeling that this thing must exist and I just don't know the words to use to find it.

[wooden ibex]

Nope, there is too many variables to make a framework viable

Question... So I lost some data on github right, my local folder got messed up cause of bad onedrive sync and hDD went down, so not all files synced and some other drama... so I had to re-initialize the repo... However, now whenever I make a push, I have to go to the site and create a pull request and merge it... but that's alot more than I was doing before...

It's still my account so why doesn't it sync back up like how it was before... and if possible, how can I get it to?

[sand thistle]

uhhh

how do i undo a git push

[tawny temple]

By using git reset and force pushing

Another way is to use an interactive rebase and drop the commits, then force push

That's git push -f. It rewrites history. If you want to avoid that, use git revert. All that does is create a new commit that undoes the changes.

For any Mac people here. What editor or IDE do you use? Seems PyCharm is loved by most but don't know if I should stick to something like sublime text (my normal editor) while learning or just jump in and learn with PyCharm?

[worldly marlin]

vscode

[molten haven]

I'd recommend IDLE if you're new to Python and software development in general.

[sly sleet]

they already use sublime

idle would be a big step down

tbh if you're experienced with sublime you can just stick with it

maybe install some python-specific extensions

[candid juniper]

thanks all!

Am new to python but not programming in general having some C and C++ experience

Just getting my head around the tools commonly use like pyenv, virtualenv etc

[upper oyster]

If you are new to Python I'd stick with pip and venv to begin with

[candid juniper]

yeah seems venv is the best option for a beginner 👍

dunno if its just because im new but god the python tools world is kinda messy with so many tools that do mostly the same thing lol

[upper oyster]

Yeah it can be quite daunting with all the different tools

Those don't even include pipenv, conda, poetry and others

But, in that article, you can ignore a bunch of them

pyvenv is basically dead

venv is just a subset of virtualenv that is in Python 3 standard library

And pyenv seems to be just to manage different Python versions more than anything else.

[spark falcon]

if i have a python thread running and I can't kill the thing by crtl+c in the terminal, are the threads terminated if i close the terminal?

say like if I started th thread with this

x = threading.Thread(target=thread_func, args=(str(i),))
x.start()

[sly sleet]

yeah, threads are tied to the process

[spark falcon]

ah

[spark falcon]

i see isee, but why can't i crtl+c when threads are running in the process? i always have to close the terminal

[sly sleet]

if you have running threads, python will wait until all of them stop before exiting the process

just set a flag when a sysinterrupt occurs in main thread and check that in your bg threads

[spark falcon]

set the flag? like when im running the python file?

[sly sleet]

something like this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/323972/is-there-any-way-to-kill-a-thread

alr thx

so exiting the program close the threads right?

so what if i create a while loop listening for keyboard interrupt, if so, then exit the program, but i tried that, it doesnt work

I'm thinking IDEs fall under tools-and-devops here ...

I'm just trying out idle while I await some way to support PyCharm on this linux host

so far, idle seems to fall pretty far short vs. pycharm

[warm pollen]

IDLE isn't an IDE

[abstract jay]

oh

well, it does syntax highlighting and in-context argument hinting

[warm pollen]

Yep, but that's about it

[abstract jay]

and it has a basic debugger. WHat is it lacking

[warm pollen]

It is lacking a lot of more advanced features

[abstract jay]

well, anyway, I found idle's features fall quite short of Pycharm's

the variable explorer in pycharm is miles ahead

[warm pollen]

Like jump to definition, type checking and such

Yep

[abstract jay]

pycharm has line numbering and visible breakpoint dots

pycharm shows a link to the source line at each error

Our apt repository is down just now, so I haven't been able to try eric as another possible IDE

some feature chart on WP suggests eric might be more capable, but I have not tried it yet

The big thing idle has going for it just this moment is 'dpkg -l idle' says ''ii''

so ... not idle, I'm gonna say

the eric website screen shots look more promising than idle, at least

[upper oyster]

IDLE is just a simple Python text editor that is included with Python to fulfil its "batteries included" philosophy

You can code in it, but it's a "gets the job done" kind of deal

[brisk lake]

whenever i would commit something, black would append � this character to my requirements.txt file

[upper oyster]

But its strength is that it's nice for beginners. It doesn't have the myriad of options that PyCharm has and so doesn't overwhelm

i didnt change any of the settings, been committing code with no issue until last night

i would get errors with decoding my requirements on heroku, but i couldnt commit any code without that happening, so i just uninstalled it at the end

how do I access redis that is running localhost in docker?

[fleet geyser]

http://localhost:<port>?

[cloud elbow]

nope that's not how that works I think. because I tried

[fleet geyser]

do you expose the port?

[cloud elbow]

of course

I should've used container_name as host

I guess

[fleet geyser]

if you try to access it from the docker network, yes, otherwise not

are you sure, it is, actually running?

did you check with docker ps?

[small light]

I know I'm late, but you are asking for help how you connect and you denying @fleet geyser answer? "That is not how it works"
Yes , that is how it works.
You said that the container is running LOCALLY THAT IS localhost: 127.0.0.1

I'll give you an example: (written from my head using Linux shell)

# spawn the container
$ docker run -d -p 6379:6379 bitnami/redis:latest
# you should see a running container. 
$ docker ps
# testing the connection using netact by sending ping to redis you should see `pong` in the shell
$ echo -e '*1\r\n$4\r\nPING\r\n' | nc localhost 6379
PONG

[cloud elbow]

"compiled by my head"

thanks for the answer though, and yes I am still denying the barba's answer

[small light]

Are you still having issues though?

[cloud elbow]

this solved it

[small light]

👍

[cloud elbow]

but you know, I tried everything, localhost and 0.0.0.0

[small light]

wait, were you trying to connect to the redis container from another container? In that case you have to use the container name

[cloud elbow]

yes, and I guess my question was not correct at the beginning. oops. bed england

[small light]

Whelp, no wonder why you were having issues 😆

@cloud elbow anywaay, localhost = local to the machine. When you are running containers, you can think of each container as separate machine, but your computer as a whole has access to all the containers as localhost, but the containers them self can only access stuff in other containers using their IP / hostname.

[cloud elbow]

thank you. lesson learned

ok so just one question: i used pyinstaller to convert some small test file into a .exe file, and it grew in size, by a lot. before, it was 613 bytes, and after, it was 6.54MB? is this normal?

[graceful patio]

well it includes the entire python programming language @opal tapir

[opal tapir]

ahh, it has to store that information if someone doesnt have python installed?

well yeah it relies on the person not having python installed

Hello, i have a problem with visual studio code and python, it says i need to select python interpreter... These are the options:

And when i press it to select:

bottom right

Can anyone help me pls?

[winter isle]

run as admin?

[cold gate]

Could you expand the error message?

I think this has to do with modifying the PYTHONPATH rather than the location of an interpreter

[hexed ermine]

Me?

[winter isle]

Did u run as admin?

[cold gate]

I don't think it's related to that

[hexed ermine]

What's that?

[cold gate]

Could you open your user settings file? It should be a JSON-based file.

There may be an error in there

[hexed ermine]

This is what it says when o [ress the link in the error message

[hexed ermine]

Where is it? in what file?

Is it in python files?

And if it is where are those?

[cold gate]

Probably it's your_user_folder\AppData\Code\User\settings.json

The error you get is saying that something goes wrong with trying to set a value in that user settings file, probably because there's an error in there of some sort

There could be some other reasons for why this happens though

[hexed ermine]

I'll search for the files

[cold gate]

Another option would be your workspace settings file

It could have a missing curly brace, comma, or another JSON-related mistake in there

[hexed ermine]

I can't find the files

Is it one of these

[cold gate]

No, it's in a different location, but maybe we can do it in a different way. Let me open up VSCode myself to try something. I'm not super familiar with it; I just use it on the side from time to time.

[hexed ermine]

Ok, thank you

Maybe

[cold gate]

Do you have a workspace open in VSCode?

[hexed ermine]

What's that?

And how do i do that?

[cold gate]

If you haven't saved a workspace, then it's probably not that, but that's another json file

[hexed ermine]

Just so you know, when i type python code there, it works, but no normally pressing F5

Only when i press the file itself

[cold gate]

What do you see when you do:

• ctrl+shift+p
• type "configure language specific settings" and hit enter

[cold gate]

select python

[hexed ermine]

I went to python there

[cold gate]

ah

there's an error

add a comma at the end of line 3

[hexed ermine]

This is a comma right: ,

[cold gate]

yes, the same as at the end of the other lines

[hexed ermine]

"html": "cd $dir && start chrome $fileName"
"javascript": "node" ,

[cold gate]

What happens here is that JSON wants a , as a separator between the different key->value pairs

[hexed ermine]

there is a comma

[cold gate]

Not after "html": "cd $dir && start chrome $fileName"

That's line 3

[hexed ermine]

yes i see it

Should i save it and try again?

[cold gate]

yeah, it will probably work now

unless there's another mistake somewhere

[hexed ermine]

Oh it worksss

You are the best

But one second

[cold gate]

sure

I do have to get back to work soon

[hexed ermine]

When i press the arrow and type:
print("test")
Where is it supposed to show me the output?

This is what it shows me when i try it

[hexed ermine]

Oh if you can't it is ok you already helped me alot

Sorry for the burden

[cold gate]

It claims that it can't find Python as a command on your PC

It probably means that it's trying to use the python command, but you did not add Python to PATH during the installation

It's something you'd have to manually select

[hexed ermine]

How?

Do you know?

[flat star]

Are you on Windows? @hexed ermine

I would imagine you have to figure your interpreter in VSCode directly and specify the directory to your python installation, however if you're on Windows you could do:
(1) Windows Key + Type "Edit System Environment Variables"
(2) Click "Environment Variables"
(3) Look at the lower section entitled "System Variables"
(4) Click on "Path"
(5) Click on "Edit"
(6) Click "New"
(7) Copy the full path of your python folder: e.g. C:\Users\NIR\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37 or wherever it will be
(8) Click "OK" "OK" "OK"
(9) Re-open VSCode and see if that works.

Otherwise, you will have to search "Setting interpreter VSCode" or something along those lines.

I also don't use VScode so I could very well be slightly off here.

[hexed ermine]

Ok @flat star

There is nothing

[warm pollen]

You have two spaces between system and environment, not sure ir it would do anything

[hexed ermine]

Still won't work

@flat star Are you sure this is ok?

Anyone?

[night quest]

Is it to hard to check it in some search? Are your system is in EN lang?

Try to start typing env...

[elfin rivet]

@heavy knot are you using html?

[heavy knot]

yes

[elfin rivet]

I can help you

[heavy knot]

i just need a command which counts the lines in my private site

it is shown on the picture under the preffered qualiffications

[elfin rivet]

Waittt, will u use python for counting

[heavy knot]

no

[elfin rivet]

Ohk, full html

[heavy knot]

[elfin rivet]

Are you done with bold heading

And lists

[heavy knot]

yes yes

[elfin rivet]

Welp, 🤔 u want to count the num of lines in the list of preferred qualifications

Right

Some unicode letters aren't rendering properly in the integrated terminal of VSCode

How can I fix that?

so like this is what it is supposed to be

but it's showing this on VSCode

I don't mind the colors

how do I get the letters?

this is one

I am using oh-my-bash with the Agnoster theme

please ping me if you reply

[severe cradle]

Has anyone faced an issue named "driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint" when running docker-compose up

?

It has something to do with iptables

[severe cradle]

I noticed that people tend to separate them

For example, telegram does this.

[severe cradle]

Already solved a problem. In case you are interested, run iptables -t filter -F and iptables -t filter -X

This will clear all iptables chains. And don't forget to restart a docker service

[sly sleet]

@pastel topaz you need to install powerline symbols

[pastel topaz]

Is it some extension? or what? how do I do it?

wait I think I understood what you mean

one second

Nope it isn't working

@sly sleet how would we do it?

[sly sleet]

https://github.com/powerline/fonts install a font from here

then you can set terminal.integrated.fontFamily to a powerline patched font

[pastel topaz]

okie thanks!

[pastel topaz]

It's working!

[night quest]

I have different repos for desktop/server/mobile apps

It's easy to merge repos but you need some work to split them out

[proper shadow]

recommendations for vs code plugins for beginners? I have the extension pack which is pretty helpful.

Hi, every time I push a branch from master to prod, GitHub tells me that there was a push to prod and if I want to merge prod into master - which would result in 0 changes. Any idea how to "untrack" pushes to prod? Only a mild inconvenience, but still

[warm pollen]

Hmm maybe adding a branch protection rule will prevent that

[wooden ibex]

Branch protection but it’s unusual to have prod branch, generally master/main are prod branch

[frozen anchor]

well, I have prod, master and dev as branches but I guess I could cut the prod branch, it just overcomplicates things

[wooden ibex]

Just saying, that workflow is unusual and Github is making wrong assumptions

[rancid mulch]

Hi, Everyone. I have a question regarding flask and AWS Lambda. I'm seeing a lot of tutorials on running Flask on AWS Lambda. I don't understand the point of it. If I can just have an API Gateway and Lambda linked up then why would I even need an entire web backend written in a single Lambda? Can't I just make separate Lambdas for each functionality? Wouldn't that shrink and make my codebase more manageable?
Can anyone describe the use cases for this please.

Hey there. Anyone who could help me to deploy discord.py applications over Heroku ? It seems my worker also start a web-runner, that I don't need to :(

[strong mica]

does anyone know a program to help me not get ddosed or how ever you spell it?

[night quest]

Hide your server behind Cloudflare for example?

[strong mica]

no like a program or something so i can plug my laptop into my xbox

so i dont get ddosed

[night quest]

I don't know any open source software that prevents from DDoS attacks

[strong mica]

oh alright

[night quest]

You should also note that even if you have any there still exists a limit for your hardware

[strong mica]

oh alright thanks

what does python do?

[night quest]

What are you asking for? Python is programming language so it makes everything like any other programming languages

[strong mica]

like in simple terms, what can you do with python whats the purpose of it?

im new to it

[night quest]

You can create HTTP server, game or any other desktop app

[lunar holly]

I am helping with a project, github/tda-api. tda-api depends on pyreadline and pyreadline requires that your OS is configured to use a utf-8 character set that supports multi-byte characters. Pyreadline will fail to build its binaries if you attempt to on an improperly configured OS.

Unforntunately, Ubuntu's official docker image is a minimal install and that image doesn't come with a multibyte characterset installed. Instead it comes configured to use something called C.UTF-8. Which I believe stands for Computer.UTF-8, and it only supports single byte characters.

Anyway... my question is this... is it possible to setup your requirements file or setup.py or something like that (I am VERY inexperienced messing with this stuff), so that when someone runs pip3 install tda-api en_us.utf-8 gets installed and configured, but only for the current environment? Is this even an advisable thing to try and do?

As far as I can tell, some of the source in pyreadline uses umlauts in some of the comments and that is causing the issue. For example:

  Contributors to this release:

    - Jörgen Stenarson, maintainer

possible a reverse proxy in front of your network? There are a lot of steps to reducing the risk of DDoS attack, I'd research a little bit about preventing DDoS attacks and best practice.

[silk steeple]

i am getting this error if i try to run my phyton document which i converted to a .exe

why

i am running this on a virtual machine to test it

[sly sleet]

its very unlikely for you to get ddosed on your home computer anyways

unless you're running a webserver or something on your home network, which is a bad idea in the first place

I bought the M1 Macbook Pro recently. Unfortunately VSCode is not fully compatible with the current version of Mac OS that supports the new chip. I seemed to have issues installing pip extensions too, but that may have just been VSCode. Do you have any IDE or Text Editor recommendations?

I wouldn’t get invested in Atom. It’s Got shaky future since both VScode and Atom are Microsoft. It’s open source so it’s not going to disappear but I could see development slowing.

[spark falcon]

hello, I'm having some problems with GIT and stuff. Basically, I wanna push to an existing github branch on my repo (not the main branch or the default branch). I have basically tried everything I can find on the internet and none of them work and I got a lot of errors and stuff.
does anyone know what commands I should use? like the flags I should use for git remote add or git push, or at least the way you do it

[night quest]

Have you tried --set-upstream flag for git push command? https://git-scm.com/docs/git-push#Documentation/git-push.txt---set-upstream

[spark falcon]

Oh but what if the branch already have some contents in it, like this is not a initial push

Would it work?

[night quest]

If you type git push without setting remote git should generate some advice with ready-to-copy command to push with setting upstream in one command

[night quest]

There is no matter whether your branch is brand-new or has some commits already

[spark falcon]

Oh Um ok thx, but do I not need to do git remote add and stuff if I use that? How do I specify the repo?

[night quest]

I assumed that you have already cloned your repo and has set at least one remote..
Can you describe your situation?

[spark falcon]

Alr so basically I have this repo where I downloaded it and then I made some changes, I wanna push it to the side branch and then make a PR to merge it to the main one (which is irrelevant from this question since it can be done afterwards). And then, basically idk how to specify the branch to the side one instead of the main one, I tried all I could find

Yo ima have to be back in few minutes

But I brb

[night quest]

So...

$ git clone ...
...
$ git checkout -b test
Switched to a new branch 'test'
$ git add ...
...  # add changes
$ git push
fatal: The current branch test has no upstream branch.
To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use

    git push --set-upstream origin test
$ git push --set-upstream origin test
...  # success

After all you are going to have your changes on test remote branch.

[spark falcon]

Yo thanks, I mean I’ll try that

[night quest]

Your welcome

[spark falcon]

oh um @night quest sorry for da ping but unfrotnuately i gave me this error src refspec new-commits does not match any and I couldnt find information online that helps with this issue

so basically new-commits is the branch i wanna push to and it does exist

oh wait nvm

one sec

[night quest]

If branch exists on remote then you have two options:

1. Use git fetch to get remote changes.
2. DANGEROUS Use git push --force to force overwrite remote changes. (it removes remote branch and replaces it with local changes!)

[spark falcon]

oh i see

lemme try the first one

wait isn't it "pull"?

[night quest]

Right, use git pull

[spark falcon]

so basically i ran this command
$ git push --set-upstream origin2132 new-commits
and it gave me this
Everything up-to-date Branch 'new-commits' set up to track remote branch 'new-commits' from 'origin2132'.

[night quest]

As far as I understand it means that your changes have been already pushed - "Everything up-to-date"

[spark falcon]

yea, but its not, idk

[night quest]

How about?

$ git push --set-upstream origin2132 another-one-branch

[spark falcon]

so this it everything i ran

git init &&
git add . &&
git remote add origin2132 https://link-to-my-repo.git &&
git push --set-upstream origin2132 new-commits

[spark falcon]

yea dat what i did

[night quest]

Where is git commit? 🙂

[spark falcon]

oh crap

i forgot

so do i do it before remtoe add origin?

[night quest]

No matter but before git push (between add and push)

[spark falcon]

kk

oh wait

still

idk man

[night quest]

Is it working?

[spark falcon]

no doesnt work 🥲

it keeps giving me this "Everything up-to-date"

but its not

[night quest]

Try git push originxyz new-commits
https://stackoverflow.com/a/28969139

[spark falcon]

ok thx

oh yea i tried that

still doesnt work

i have no idea

lol

[night quest]

From GitHub help, I have tested it and it works.

$ echo "# test-repo" >> README.md
$ git init
$ git add README.md
$ git commit -m "first commit"
$ git branch -M master
$ git remote add origin [e-mail]:githubuser/test-repo.git
$ git push -u origin master

[spark falcon]

oh so add the -u tag?

[night quest]

If it's not working in your case check your git configuration (both client and server)

[spark falcon]

oh man

ok yea i will

hopefully this works

like i think everything i need is to specfiy the branch to "new-commits", and i have no idea how

i think it never was set to it

brub you wanna know what happened?

it deleted all my files on my local folder

oh my ||fucing|| god!

dude im like so close to dying

how do i recover them?

like dude

it deleted everything

bruh

im like

omfg!!!!

stoopid git

what did i do?

like all i did is git checkout new-commits and then it deleted everything in my folder

oh thank god i still have my things on the main branch

i had to clone them again

dude but what the heck was that? why did it delete my folders and files?

alr u know what? im just gonna use github desktop

git bad

like idk, everytime i use it, theres gotta be an issue

github desktop, i only need to do fetch and then push

ez

hehe

bet

[night quest]

I haven't told you to just paste those commands... You can use man or something to check what those commands/flags do.

Anyway, it's really hard to help when I don't know at least nothing about your environment and what do you want to achieve.

[spark falcon]

Ye I understand

But idk

[turbid hollow]

hi@all

is anyone familiar with Docker

??

[warm pollen]

Sure, what’s up @turbid hollow ?

You can ask right away, no need to ask to ask

[turbid hollow]

@warm pollen
I saw some instructions to push a Linux OS into a Container and i'm wondering why to use Docker instead of an so called traditional VM.

[night quest]

Linux OS inside Docker container? I am not following latest releases but as far as I know there is no possibility to put whole OS inside container because it is a "lightweight" virtual machine

[turbid hollow]

https://hub.docker.com/_/ubuntu

[night quest]

Hm? I know this image

[turbid hollow]

this is also a good one

https://hub.docker.com/_/docker

[night quest]

I don't know what those links proof

https://www.docker.com/resources/what-container

Lightweight: Containers share the machine’s OS system kernel and therefore do not require an OS per application, driving higher server efficiencies and reducing server and licensing costs

Like I said, containers are not full-packed VMs

[turbid hollow]

i don't want to proof something. I'm confused

[night quest]

Check link above

[turbid hollow]

I read this. but isn't it a guest OS if i push a linux distro inside

[night quest]

For example - if your Docker image uses some kernel-specific methods (like GPU drivers) you need to install them in the host OS

[night quest]

This is not whole distro but just tools like package manager and so on

If you want to have lightweight virtual machine with different kernel you have User-Mode Linux

[turbid hollow]

@night quest
Korrekt me if i'm wrong. If i Develop something inside a Docker Container there is no need for building a Python venv because the Docker Container is isolated.

right?

[warm pollen]

Yep!

[turbid hollow]

Is it easy to handle for a Beginner?

[night quest]

Right!

[night quest]

You need to learn how to create images using Dockerfiles

It's not hard to learn but you need to understand some concepts (like what is an image or a layer)

Later you can build more complex structures using Docker Compose

[turbid hollow]

@night quest
So you have BareMetal > ServerOS > Docker Engine (Deamon)> DockerContainer (Images)

[night quest]

As far as I know you are correct

[turbid hollow]

HM hope it is worth to spend time

[hearty basin]

If memory is increasing but the garbage collection objects aren't increasing, what does that mean?

[night quest]

That your objects didn't be collected by GC?

Idk, I guess

[hearty basin]

Ah. So thats a possibilty?

Would you know of a way how to handle this increasing memory then?

[spark falcon]

yo hello @night quest so I took a look into my .git/config file, basically I wanna push the origin000 to the dev branch but it keeps giving me this src refspec dev does not match any
Here's my config file, do u see anything wrong?

what do heads and refs mean?

idk

looks fine to me

btw how i push it is that git push origin000 dev

[vocal quiver]

Can I have a sqlite database on ibm cloud?

[open spear]

Their database service is called db2 https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/services/db2

But I don't think sqlite is provided, since sqlite is generally not used in production environments.

Generally, if you wanted to use sqlite, you would just create the db on whatever system would use the database.

[vocal quiver]

Thanks I'll check it out

[vocal quiver]

you would just create the db on whatever system would use the database.
Sorry, I didn't understand that.

I'll try to switch to postgress, but is there a big difference between that and sqlite?.

[open spear]

It depends. If you are using an ORM like SQLAlchemy or Django's ORM, then there's hardly any difference.

If you're doing something a little lower level, like writing SQL statements by hand, there may be some slight syntax changes you need to make between dialects.

[open spear]

Because sqlite databases are just a simple file, you would typically just create the database on whatever server would otherwise access the database. In other words, there's usually not much point in having a machine dedicated to running sqlite.

[vocal quiver]

Ok, Thanks

[night quest]

You can try to manually call GC as far as I know, what do then?

Just remove two spaces before except. Indentation in Python defines logic so you must take care about that.

[flat marlin]

I've read that installing the Insider version of VSCode via Homebrew eliminates the problems I'm having

[spark falcon]

hello guys, all I wanna do is a simple "push to a remote branch and then merge it to the main branch". But it turns out to be really difficulty for me as I couldn't find resources online that instructs me about it, I have tried various types of commands and they all ended up failing, does anyone have an idea of what i can do?

i tried

git init
git add .
git commit -m "changes"
git remote add origin https://url-to-the-repo.git
git checkout -b branch
git push -u origin branch

and then after that, to merge the <branch> to <main>, but the last line of the commands in the above code block gives me this error

! [rejected]        branch -> branch (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://url-to-repo.git'
hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind
hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes (e.g.
hint: 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

I tried git pull or git pull --rebase (just tried everything) and then none works so idk

just really frustrated with git and i got this project that's due in just few days and im stuck on this stoobei stuff

nahh i was jk

dont take it too seriously

[fast pivot]

Does anyone use LOC (lines of code) as a measure measurement KPI for devops?

for complexity measurement?

[rough ice]

Hi, I need to use Jinja2 to copy values, the main aim is to automate a testing process, I've never worked with template libraries, can I ask about Jinja in this text channel?

[fast pivot]

@rough ice #web-development ?

[fading rivet]

Maybe you need to push force this

Sometimes when I need to rebase something, this message appears to me even not having anything new on the branch to pull. When I push force, it works with no problem

[wooden ibex]

Terrible KPI

[fast pivot]

Why?

[wooden ibex]

People can increase LOC because of measurement

[fast pivot]

XD

backwards my dude

you want LOC to go down

[wooden ibex]

No, then you one line messes

[fast pivot]

LOC measures complexity. The less code there is the less there is to maintain, the better the porject. (minus cutting tests because lol tests are code.)

[lone linden]

it's more of an approximate measure then an indicator of anything concrete i imagine

doesn't tell you much except maybe a couple of basic thresholds a la small/intermediate/huge

[tawny temple]

I think what your commands did is create a new local branch that was not based off the remote. If you just want to push local changes to a remote branch, do this

git init
git remote add origin https://url-to-the-repo.git
git fetch origin
git switch master

git add .
git commit -m "changes"
git push -u origin

If you want to work with separate branches then you'll need to use git merge to merge changes from one branch into another before pushing.

[wooden ibex]

No, sometimes it's better to write little more code so it's easy to read. For example, at my company, we frown heavily on Lambdas because number of times we had to break Lambdas out because of requirement changes. So even if it's python def add(x, y): return x + y We would do that because never know when requirement comes to return 100 if it's greater then 100

[sly sleet]

LOC calculations just lead to stuffing a bunch of stuff on one line

its better to use cyclomatic complexity or something better

[fast pivot]

I agree. Type hinting for example is amazing.

[fast pivot]

The issue I've run into on many dev teams/companies is rampant product development. Devs have a limit on how much code they can operationally maintain

Product abandonment is functionally lost WIP

For example, @wooden ibex, how many LOC do you manage professionally and on the side?

14 million?

1000?

If there is a vulnerability how confident are you that you'd be aware enough to catch it?

[sly sleet]

yes, thats what cyclomatic complexity measures

except in a way that isn't easily cheesed by one liners

[fast pivot]

Oh cool. I didn't know about that

What tool do you use to measure cyc. In your projects @sly sleet ?

[runic pond]

Does anyone know why vs code might be not recognizing virtual environments and python interpreters?

also why it started to execute text from a website as commands in the terminal on its own?

[runic pond]

I have python installed and in path but when I press Ctrl+Shift+P and choose 'Python: Select Interpreter' nothing shows up

[fast pivot]

Sure. It does depend if your question is in the right channel

[wooden ibex]

ALot and not as much

[wooden ibex]

Zero

but that's the case for most teams

[spark falcon]

yo thx, i eventually did solve my problem, i just didnt know how it works, now i do lol

[spark falcon]

yo thx

[sand thistle]

hoping someone can help me with an issue on git/github

my github branch is ahead technically with changes

but i actually want to keep what I have local

but it's asking me to git pull before I push

but i dont want the content of the current github branch

just the local

[upper oyster]

@sand thistle how did the GitHub branch get ahead of your local branch?

Are you sharing it with other people? If not, I'm curious to know how it happened

The safest thing is to git pull and then apply your local changes on top. That would align the two repos again

But I'm curious to know how it got that way in the first place

[sand thistle]

uhh well we branched to refactor some code

and something went wrong a long the way

[sand thistle]

its shared

[upper oyster]

Ok then you need to pull first

You can't push if you are behind the GitHub version

When you pull then you should be able to resolve any conflicts between the pull and your latest commits

[sand thistle]

right but if there are a lot of differences

cant i rebase

[upper oyster]

You should rebase only if you know exactly what you are doing lol

So, you should never rebase any commits that you already pushed

But, if all the commits are local only to your machine, then yes, you can rebase

Do git pull --rebase if the local commits are in the same branch and you just want to replay them on top of the GitHub commits

Or git rebase if you are rebasing local commits from another branch

[sand thistle]

well

i did a git pull rebase

and this is not the desired result, it combined both files

i just want my local commit

to be the head

i dont understand why its so hard

[upper oyster]

Yeah a git pull will do this

[sand thistle]

thats not my object

i tried resetting the head to the commit on the test branch, before these issues came about
