2020 February Updates (belated)

I know I'm late when I publish this. Please ignore the dates. I drafted this update in Feb but delayed to publish. As of now, Covid 19 is spreading and I'll cover them in later updates.

February 2020 was nice a little nice, mainly because it doesn't have 30 days and the month ends at weekends.
[don't expect any complete sentences in this post. consider this as scratches.]

Outline

  1. Chippy having her big day!
  2. Komal getting new gifts!
  3. Manyu leaving
  4. Generator-ts-np 3.2.0 being released!
  5. Valentine's day updates
  6. Initial releases of log-to-json and log-to-json-cli
  7. Favourites.

Chippy having her big day!

She got married to Jerin. Treats are pending. After her holidays, she joined a new company.
Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness.


Oh, I forgot to emphasis something...
Treats are pending 👈

Shajan is also having a new job this month. Best wishes.

Komal getting priceless 💖 gifts

She likes them. Everyone else too.


Manyu leaving

Wishing him all the best.

Releasing generator-ts-np v3.2.0

ts-np is a yeoman generator for building node packages with TypeScript.

2 things mainly covered with this release:

1. Critical Issue #59

Even though previous versions(<v3.2.0) were working properly locally every time, they seem to fail sometimes in the final stage when installed from npm.

Troubleshooting this was very tiring. Because the observed error message mislead me to other places and when I try locally everything works fine.

The root cause was identified to be the inconsistent npm installs.
It was fixed by shipping the shrinkwrap.json along with the package (note that package lock files are not deployed to registries).

2. Generator fails when attempting to make a call to GitHub API's (#54)

Check the issue link for more.

Valentine's day updates

Cute, at least I'm not rejected. 

Generator-ts-np v3.2.0 was released on Feb 13th. So I personally call it Valentine's Day Special Release. However, showing this release to your crush may not help workout your evil plan.

Also, I'm carrying a big secret from Koraty. I can't wait to yell it out. But I don't have any plans right now to get hurt.
Anyway, it's going officially public in a few weeks (Update[May 4]: still not published).

Initial releases of log-to-json and log-to-json-cli

Past few weeks I've been dealing with GBs of JSON like log files, but not JSON. Sometimes we required them to be converted to JSON. So I built and released them.
If you need to use it in programs, use log-to-json. As a CLI, use log-to-json-cli.

Favourites

I started liking the YouTube Music App.

Extras

Corona is spreading.

Talky Messenger Documentation & Setup

( Github ) Just created a chat app that runs in Node and Socket. the attempt was worthy. Talky is a messenger app built with Node, Express, Socket, Angular & Bootstrap. It's like a server-client structure. (But obviously not like the one we done at OS lab using shared memory). It has a broadcasting structure. Talky does not keep a log on chat. i.e., It doesn't have a memory or database. When we close the browser window, chat history is lost. There I also added a basic console, protected by a password, to send real-time notifications to active clients. The name 'Talky' was suggested by a friend of mine. (hey, thank you for that. The fact is that I am not really good at naming...😝) What if sometimes your college blocks WhatsApp? Try Talky. ( There is also a website on internet in the name of 'Talky' which has no connection with this one. ) Download Talky Messenger To use Talky, all you need is 3 things: Node server Source code

Repairing my keyboard gone wrong and then right.

Few months ago I tried to repair an old unused keyboard. I opened it cleaned and put everything back in place. But didn't work. Thinking it has met it's end-of-life, I gave it to my sister's daughter, 2 year old Komal. She went hard with it. Once she even thrown it. To my surprise, after a few throws, it's now working properly 🙆.

Formia - A Simulation of Google Forms. Part 1 - My Experience

This time I would like to share one of the exciting moments in my life, in which I understood what the Client - Server Concept means and by the Grace of God , simulated one of the Internet Giant's product, Google Forms from scratch. I finished the project a couple of months ago. Here is the story. (and the project ). Analysis page, See more screenshots Screenshots Install Formia. What it is? Formia is an incredible web application for Massive Feedback Analysis. Developed on May 2015. More than  4000 lines of codes. Flexible. Well structured. This can be viewed as a simulation of  Google Forms , a product hosted by the  Internet Giant, Google. Service available in  mobile, laptop, tabs . Languages Formia is constructed on  7 languages , including PHP, AJAX, JS, SQL etc. The Analysis part utilizes  Google APIs  which is one of the coolest (and  hottest ) feature. Usability Formia is optimized for easiness. User friendly just like Google For
