Opinions, recommendations?

Remember our webscale'd 2.0 and loved database, MongoDB? And how it, in some cases, didn't persist all the records? Welp, now it doesn't even RETURN all the records for a query! YAY!

>Specifically, if a document is updated while the query is running, MongoDB may not return it from the query—even if it matches both before and after the update! If you use MongoDB, you should be aware of this subtle edge case and make sure your queries don’t fall victim to it.

So Javascript objects are pretty much the same as Ruby and Python dictionaries?

Except in Javascript the key

"string"

will be the same as the key string.

Am I learning this right?

>>54991483
Yeah, JavaScript objects are basically maps of strings to values. They're slightly different to, say, Ruby Hashes because they don't allow any type of object to be a key, just strings (and recently, Symbols.) If you use something that isn't a string as an index, it's coerced to a string, so

myObject[7]

is the same as

myObject['7']

.

Also you shouldn't actually use JavaScript objects like real dictionaries unless you're aware of all the edge cases, it's just convenient to think of them like that. For example, if you use an object to map usernames to user objects, someone could make a user with the name '__proto__' and just ruin your day.

>>54991483
>>54991656
There's also this if you want a proper key/value map:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Map

>>54991280
>MongDB
Not even once.

>>54991483
>>54991656
Also, for actual dictionaries in JS, use ES6 Map(). https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Map

>>54991656
What's wrong with the name '__proto__'?

>>54991797
It's an internal property used by JavaScript to keep track of the object's prototype chain. I can't remember if it's just not writable or if assigning to it changes the prototype because you're not supposed to use it directly. It might depend on the browser/runtime.

I'm working on my first Node.js project ever (a MAL clone).
Should I look into Meteor.js or Express.js?
Which technologies / environments would be the best for such a project?

Express is fine. Meteor uses MongoDB, so avoid like the plague.

>>54993015
which type of database would you recommend then?
All I've ever tried is MySQL, but I bet it's not the preferable option nowadays.

>>54993079
mariadb, postgre

>>54993079
Use postgresql.

>>54993079
MySQL is still the industry standard. MariaDB is a modern fork that most people (and big companies use. It has the reliability of MySQL but with modern features and it's hella fast.

Would node.JS be suitable for a website selling digital products? I've already learned quite a bit of Python because I was going to learn Django but I'm not sure if I should anymore.

>>54993079
Depends on how your data is structure. If you make a document per user and query statistics with map-reduce-*, NoSQL is fine. I recommend RethinkDB, Riak or CouchDB. Otherwise PostgreSQL/MariaDB.

>>54993155
Python would do the job fine, you don't have to use django

>>54990991

You know what I always found ironic?

Is there a good crash course to Ruby on Rails and Angular.js for a backend developer, to be able to do stuff in 1 to 2 months?

I'm going to read the tools and use their official documentation/handbooks I wanted to ask the /g/entoomen present because I trust the opinion random strangers with above average IQ.

is there something like learn Angular/RoR in the same fashion as Laracasts or Learn C/Python the hardway?

I do NOT know node.js, and I assume that if I know javascript I can take up angular fairly easy or in parallel while learning Angular. I come from a Groovy (Java), Django, Laravel (etc like Worpdress, Joomla) background so using MVC or DevOps stuff like vagrant, docker, aws, PaaSes, isn't something new to me.

I want a better job since where I currently am, only do small php backends or Wordpress themes, and I think while it is fairly easy it will stagnate my development in the long run.

Legitimately? Or are we talking "Cali start up" high demand.

Why didn't any of you niggers tell me about Elm before? It's fantastic.

>>54996429
it's too new to tell if it's actually gonna be popular. if it was just angular but better it would be for sure, but it's completely changed.

>>54996464
Because TypeScript exists. Admittedly the Java parts of it are cancer, but the ES6/7 parts are solid.

elm is pretty good
if elm doesn't do enough for you (e.g. server side rendering), try purescript + pux

Javascript: The Good Parts - 7/10 informative, but it doesn't tell you a variety of things to avoid. It's mostly just patterns

angularjsbook.com - Just starting it. I probably won't use angular at any point considering it's a very heavy framework and Django is already a heavy framework, but I am loving the idea of it. I'll probably read up on knockout.js, react.js, backbone.js, etc just to see which one would fill my need most

What the HTML attribute that already has text contained inside say an input box. A placeholder is greyed out, but some ones do have text that can be posted?

Sorry for explaining like a retard

>>54999303

<input type="text" name="text" value="default value">

>>54999303
Are you sure the box actually lets you post it unfilled purely through html? It's possible that in the backend, it changes an unfilled box's text into the default placeholder

>>54999392
What I am looking to do is input a URL to the front end, back end processes the HTML, parses it and scrapes of stuff it needs. From the scrapings, that populates the form. In the meantime while regexes get nurtured, the user can check the input and amend if necessary before it gets posted to the web server.

I've been working on an imageboard software that I wrote. A kind anon in a previous thread "hacked" it (put some js into a text-box I'd forgotten to escape or filter.) This is useful to me, as it helps me find bugs I may not have otherwise discovered so soon, so please continue to do this if you feel so inclined.
I'm also looking for someone to help me with the front-end; I don't have an eye for design. I'd also like any opinions or suggestions you have to improve the software.

The software is free and open-source, and can be found here: https://github.com/4tran/VIB

>>54999574
Why is it called tran? Are you a tranny?

Also, I'm not sure about the black, a softer colour may be more appropriate, a really light pastel colour.

You also need to harmonise the font colour, perhaps make divs a different colour from the background too

>>54999617
I'm not very creative. Whenever I name something, I kind of just pick whatever pops into my head. Fortran is what first came to me, and then I thought "if I replaced the for with a 4, then it'd look sorta like 4chan."

Working on an expense tracker web thingy. Most of the UI is built with google closure library controls, but I want to style them.

What's a good CSS framework that does not impose their own JS functionality, i.e. style-only? Preferrably themeable.

Bourbon looks good, or would you go with something simpler like purecss or skeleton and modify it?

>>54999574
>I'd also like any opinions or suggestions you have to improve the software.

Try to keep your view and actual code separate. The file thread.php alone is a clusterfuck for me to understand since it mixes both the view and the logic to retrieve a thread and its posts. You usually try to keep these 2 apart.

Second, your commit log is all but helpful since with nearly all commits I can't make out what you've actually changed.

>>54999804
I'm new to php (which I'm sure is obvious to you.) I'm also new to project management in general. Could you go into further depth what you mean by "separate view and logic," as well as provide an example of what that would look like/how I would manage to do such a thing?
Also, you're right, my update log isn't really helpful. I'm terrible at commenting and such, but I'm going to work on it.

http://colors.findthedata.com/saved_search/Pastel-Colors

Basically, this link should help. The background colour of your imageboard should be the lighter colour and your divs should be darker.

In your case, black could work, but you need to make your divs charcoal, or gun metal gray. Text should maybe me black again or a softer grey with more white.

I would personally go with a nice pastel blue on the background and dark pastel blue as the div, try it out see what it looks like. It's quite similar to this board.

One thing I should mention, don't worry about copying other site's styles. Just think, Facebook and Twitter both have a blue theme, just imagine if they both were red or green, wouldn't look right would it? So safe bet is always blue, some people I'm sure have done research on why blue is better which you can read up on, connotations of calm or whatever bullshit, but your own eyes won't lie.

Look at orange + green, if you think its horrible then you have an eye for what goes. If it doesn't bother you then yeah, you need someone else to help

>>55001172
I've learned a little c#, a little python, js, etc. I'm not too picky about the language, I see benefits and practical uses for all of them.
Another learning project I did was:
https://github.com/BigLoadGames/GodSmite
it was supposed to be a little js game similar to risk, but around the same time I started this project, I also got into project euler. So most of the actually learning is in a file called math.js, which is basically just project euler problems in functions. I find the functions a lot more fun than the game itself, personally, as in most of the functions I didn't just complete the problems, I also made it so you could mess around with some variables and see what you get for an answer if you input other things.

I need to build a website, what do I need to know?

in api.js change it to

var mysql = require('blahblah').mysql_connection;

For the love of me, I can't fucking wrap my head around higher order functions and reduce.

Say I have an array:

var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];

If I use reduce to get the sum of everything in the array:

console.log(arr.reduce(function (a, b) {
  return a + b;
}
));

The function returns the sum of all the numbers in the array which is 28.

So it uses the first item in the array as the accumulator?

But the following code:

console.log(arr.reduce(function (a, b) {
  a[b] = b * b;
  return a;
}), { });

It seems to use { } as the accumulator which is a in the function. If the function runs and it starts with

a = { }

won't a[b] be undefined and cause it to crash? It instead returns an object with the square of each key:

Object: {1: 1, 2: 4, 3: 9, 4: 16, 5: 25, 6: 36, 7: 49}

Send help

>>55003159
>So it uses the first item in the array as the accumulator?
No. It doesn't use anything supplied as an accumulator.
"a" is always a copy of the return value of the previous execution of the callback (or the supplied initial value for the first execution)
"b" is always the value of the element in the array being reduced at the index "c" (the execution iteration number)

>It seems to use { } as the accumulator
No. Stop.

>If the function runs and it starts with a = { } won't a[b] be undefined
Yes. "b" is "1" in this first iteration, and a[1] is currently undefined.
>and cause it to crash?
What? Why? You're doing assignment. "Set a[1] to 1*1"
It doesn't need to be defined before that. You're defining it now.

You should really get more comfortable with basic aspects of the language before trying to tackle a clusterfuck like reduce.

>>55003159
>won't a[b] be undefined and cause it to crash? I
Not at all. This is javascript. You don't need to define a key inside an object (a is an object here) before assigning it a value. In fact, you define it when you assign a value to that key.

/g/ im desperate
I have two websites

I have a form to select a file & send it to a php file on MySite.com
My php file should then forward the file to a php file on MyOtherSite.com
MyOtherSite.com then responds with either upload failed or a direct text link to the file

Now I tested just uploading on MyOtherSite.com, works fine, so the php there is good to go
However when I try to forward a file from MySite.com to MyOtherSite.com, it always responds with upload failed.

I KNOW my php code must be forming the request wrong, i know it must be a simple mistake, but i cannot see it

heres my code -

php file which hosted on MySite.com which forwards the file to upload it to MyOtherSite.com

if you see my picture, the other site responds, it just responds that the upload failed

if it was an origin issue that would not happen, the response would be blank, CORS would block any text from returning from the second site

also i have enabled proper cross origin rules on both sites

anyway thank you, i know my php code is just messed up somewhere

Simply put, friendo, I made a cool contact form in html and css, then a php page on the server sends automagically all the data to me, but in this php file there's my email address written in plain text: since anyone can request this php page I have on the server, is there a way to avoid the email address from showing crystal clear to everybody?

guys, I'm trying to solve something in jquery:

I want to remove all elements but one, which is deep down in the DOM tree.

This code works (even leaves html tags, I am ok with that):

var save = $('#divname').detach();
$('html').empty().append(save);

However, isn't there a neater way, something like:

$('html').not('#divname').remove();

However, this removes everything.

Can anyone assist me with this?

I have an input box, a user should enter a URL into this and click the button.

Backend, the Controller, should scrape off the title using bs4 and search for other things in the HTML. This should then populate a field for the user, where the can make changes before posting to a database.

Now I have the website already set up working perfectly, and I also have the code for scraping HTML which works in a single script.

How do I implement it into my web app?

Should I put the code in my controller (app.py) a model .py file and reference it within the controller?

Anyone have any documentation or tutorials which tries to run scripts when a button is pressed but not do database stuff?

i dont want to sound too rude again, but im having a hard time understanding that post

in what step is "that page"s php content visible to the outside? does php not parse&execute it sometimes? does it crash and spit some debug code onto the response?

your first try at it bretty gud, you need to preserve the element outside of the dom tree and re-add it.
even if you are selecting all the nodes that are not the one to delete, once jquery reaches the parent of th elem that you are truing to save its going to remove it, and subsequently its children, effectively removing your element from the dom. sowwy

If everything is fine with all the fields, mail.php sends an email to me; the user never goes through mail.php but waits for his mail to be sent in contact-form.htm (a notify appears when it's finished). Even if the user does not see mail.php, this file is on the web server and anybody can see my email address in it. I feel bad, I'm a total noob with php.

Again, thank you very much.

I'm using Node.js/Express, and I'm doing my best to write a good looking backend. When you nest, how far do you let yourself nest in before you write a different function to make it cleaner?

On top of that, how long do you usually let your functions be?

- Ruby on Rails
- Django (Python)
- Phoenix (Elixir)
- Grails (Groovy/JVM languages)
PHP is best thought of as a programming language with half a Web framework bolted on out of the box. The frameworks/language pairs listed above will be pretty much equivalent to each other if you are a beginner to intermediately skilled developer. Choose any one.
