Release 0.2, Third PR

-
This week I was contributing to an open source project called Marquez. It is a metadata service for the collection, aggregation, and visualization of a data ecosystem's metadata. It also maintains the provenance of how datasets are consumed and produced, provides global visibility into kob runtime and frequency of dataset access, centralization of dataset lifecycle management, and much more. 

 The technologies this project uses are the following:
  • Java 8+
  • PostgreSQL 9.6 
For my third PR I picked an issue some of the classes that are used throughout the code. So I was looking for all occurrences of those replacing them with a new name. After creating a branch and making my changes I made sure that all tests pass locally using ./gradlew test command. Another important thing before pushing my changes and creating a pull request was to check if all .java files are formatted properly. I did that using ./gradlew spotlessJavaCheck command and noticed that a bunch of tests is failing because I forgot to alphabetically sort imports, so I ran ./gradlew spotlessApply in order to fix my mistakes.

fs.rmdir() vs fs.rmdirSync() in Node.js

-
The main purpose of rmdir() and rmdirSync() methods in the fs module is to remove a directory. If you are going to use any of these two methods, you should also remember that using them it is only possible to remove an empty directory. In case your goal is to get rid of the folder which contains another files or directories you would need to install the additional fs-extra module that would add more features on top of the fs. You can use remove() method from the fs-extra module to delete directories that contain something. fs.rmdir(path, callback) Removes a directory asynchronously. If the directory isn’t empty the function will throw an exception. Passed Parameters: path – string, path to the directory which you want to remove. The function won’t work if you will pass a path to the file instead of the directory (will result in ENOENT error on Windows and an ENOTDIR error on POSIX) callback – function, returns an error. Source code:  function rmdir(path, call...

Discovering Open Source Projects

Go (Golang) Go is a compiled programming language. Like all others, it wants to be "better than C." The language development is supported by Google (the creators of the language are Rob Pike, Robert Griesemer and Ken Tompson). Go is completely open-source, and a large number of people not from Google also take part in its development. I got interested in the language because of its simplicity and unusual approach to OOP and multithreading.  The main advantages of Golang: Simple and clear syntax Excellent performance Rich standard library Highly Concurrent Go compiler (Error checking, cross-compiling) Open source Charming logo So looking for an open source project, I found 3 that might be interesting to contribute to:  Kubernetes Its io Moby  Kubernetes What is Kubernetes?  "Kubernetes is a portable, extensible open-source platform for managing containerized workloads and services, that facilitates both declarative confi...

Release 0.4, First Blog

-
For the Final release, I have a few projects to work on in mind. The first one is  VS Code , and I'm also looking into  Filer  issues. Here's the one ticket I'm trying to do now:  https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/71690 It requires adding a border around the vscode window, in order to be able to differentiate vs code from Visual Studio when using both at the same time, and their windows overlap. In order to set up this project, I used:  yarn watch  to start TypeScript incremental builder. And then:  .\scripts\code.bat   to test the changes. In case this ticket won't work out, I'm planning to continue working on  Vibranium  project from my previous release. Issue:  https://github.com/kelvinkamau/Vibranium/issues/63
