how often does nodebbpm scan for packages - nodebb

I'm writing a plugin for NodeBB. When I publish a new version via npm it seems to take the NodeBB Package Manager (nodebbpm) an arbitrary amount of time to pick it up.
At what interval does nodebbpm scan for packages?

What's with SO cropping the beginning of my answer?
Hey #daniel-eiseinhardt -- the NodeBB package manager scans for changes in npm every 15 minutes: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-package-manager/blob/master/index.js#L46
Hope that clears up any confusion over any delays!
If you want, you can trigger a manual refresh of a specific package by calling PUT https://packages.nodebb.org/api/v1/plugins/nodebb-plugin-myplugin

How to build Chromium faster?

Following only the instructions here - https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/get-the-code I have been able to successfully build and get a Chromium executable which I can then run.
So, I have been playing around with the code (adding new buttons to the browser etc.) for learning purposes. So each time I make a change (like adding a new button in the settings toolbar) and I use the ninja command to build it takes over 3 hours to finish before I can run the executable. It builds each and every file again I guess.
I have a decently powerful machine (i7, 8GB RAM) running 64-bit Ubuntu. Are there ways to speed up the builds? (At the moment, I have literally just followed the instructions in the above mentioned link and no other optimizations to speed it up.)
Thank you very very much!
If all you're doing is modifying a few files and rebuilding, ninja will only rebuild the objects that were affected by those files. When you run ninja -C ..., the console displays the number of targets that need to be built. If you're modifying only a few files, that should be ~2000 at the high end (modifying popular header files can touch lots of objects). Modifying a single .cpp would result in rebuilding just that object.
Of course, you still have to relink which can take a very long time. To make linking faster, try using a component build, which keeps everything in separate shared libraries rather than one big onw that needs to be relinked for any change. If you're using GN, add is_component_build=true to gn args out/${build_dir}. For GYP, see this page.
You can also peruse faster linux builds and see if any of those tips apply to you. Unfortunately, Chrome is a massive project so builds will naturally be long. However, once you've done the initial build, incremental builds should be on the order of minutes rather than hours.
Follow the recently updated instructions here:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/docs/windows_build_instructions.md#Faster-builds
In addition to using component builds you can disable nacl, use jumbo builds, turn off symbols for webcore, etc. Jumbo builds are still experimental at this point but they already help build times and they will gradually help more.
Full builds will always take a long time even with jumbo builds, but component builds should let incremental builds be quite fast in many cases.
For building on Linux, you can see how to build faster at: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_build_instructions.md#faster-builds
Most of them require add build argments. To edit build arguments, you can see GN build configuration at: https://www.chromium.org/developers/gn-build-configuration.
You can edit the build arguments on a build directory by:
$ gn args out/mybuild

Updating a published color scheme on Package Control

I have a color scheme published on Package Control. I've made some changes to it in its Git repository, and I've updated its tag version and pushed the tags. However, the version on Package Control isn't updating, and it has been quite awhile now. Does it just normally take awhile or did I do something wrong?
Should update automatically:
Package Control will check it for updates approximately once per hour. The Last Seen date on the package detail page of this site will show the last time (UTC) when the package information was refreshed.

Redeploying SSIS packages - Cache?

We have noticed an issue recently that redeployed SSIS packages sometime don't seem to include the latest changes... When I search the dtsx using notepad I see the amended script in the code so the changes are definitely there.
My assumption was that script components of SSIS packages are eventually compiled into an assembly somewhere in the process - this is quite likely since I would imagine C# code cannot run without something compiling it first. So in theory if these assemblies would then end up being cached and not immediately overwritten (for some reason) that would explain this issue.
The only "evidence" that makes me think that my theory is correct is if I keep running the package at some point it suddenly shifts to the new code.
However, so far I haven't found why and how this is happening, if is... Can anybody help?
UPDATE:
MSDN says: "Unlike earlier versions where you could indicate whether the scripts were precompiled, all scripts are precompiled in SQL Server 2008 Integration Services (SSIS) and later versions." - If by pre-compiled they mean that instead of the actual package a pre-compiled version runs (I think this because the package itself does not seem to be compiled since the code is visible in Notepad) there must be a way to force the engine to overwrite the pre-compiled assembly... but how?
UPDATE:
One of the four core components of SSIS is the SQL ServerIntegration Services service, which is a windows service. Apparently this service will cache component/task metadata so that the SSIS runtime engine can poll the cache to see what is installed, which may help speed up package load times. However, if the packages are stored in the file system (not in SQL Integration Services) and executed by Agent Jobs, the agent job will use the 64 bit version of DTEXEC to execute the packages. I haven't yet found evidence that any caching would be involved there, but there are certainly options to check a number of parameters in the validation phase of the execution, such as version numbers - may be for a reason.
Have you looked at sysssispackages to compare the version build number of the package in msdb to your build number in Visual Studio / SSIS?
SELECT name, verbuild
FROM msdb.dbo.sysssispackages
WHERE name LIKE '%bla%'
(Adjust WHERE-clause as necessary to find your package. Do NOT ever "SELECT * FROM msdb.dbo.sysssispackages" as it contains the package XML in one of the columns.)
And in Visual Studio, open the package, then right-click at the background of the package and select "Properties" from the context menu. Look at the field VersionBuild. It should match the number from the SELECT above!
I know this is not an actual solution to your problem but it may help locate where the cause of the problem is. If the number is older, it means that your package deployment did not work.
This sounds somewhat familiar to something I ran into a while back. Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly when I ran into this (so I can't check for sure), but I believe the fix I found was to make sure that I explicitly invoked the Build | Build st_5bd541c294054c25b9e7eb55b92bd0e2 command from the script editor (VSTA) menu before closing the window. (The specific project name will be different for each script, obviously, since it's based on a GUID; however, there will only be one possible submenu under Build.)
Explicitly invoking the Build command ensures that the binary code for the script gets ASCII-encoded and saved in the XML of the resulting .dtsx file. I'd gotten used to SSIS 2005 always building for me whenever I closed the script editor. Apparently, there are bizarre edge cases where SSIS 2008 doesn't always build the script project when the editor closes.
BTW, the precompiled binaries appear to be stored in a tag of the source XML called BinaryItem:
<DTS:Executable DTS:ExecutableType="Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.ScriptTask, Microsoft.SqlServer.ScriptTask, Version=10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" DTS:ThreadHint="0">

It might be worth checking your source code control system history to see if that was getting updated for some of those screwy errors.
Caveat: I haven't found official Microsoft documentation on this.
This doesn't specifically solve the mystery you have, but if you are running file system-based packages and want to verify that the package that is running is the package you deployed, there is a way to do that.
Build your package.
Open the properties on your package and note down the "Version Build" property (alternatively, open the .dtsx in notepad and find the DTS:VersionBuild attribute.)
Deploy your package.
In your SQL Agent job step, go to the Verification tab.
Enter the Version Build in the "Verify package build" input box.
Execute the job step.
I don't know if this will force SSIS to throw out its cache and get the newly deployed package, but I do know if you modify the .dtsx package's build number by hand and then try to re-run the job step it fails because the package build doesn't match what it's looking for so it is definitely doing a run-time check of that value.

Maven resume from failed project on Jenkins

Is there a way to configure Jenkins to resume a (broken) Maven build from where it failed the previous time it ran?
When working with large multi-module projects, it can be very annoying to have to wait a long time for all the unchanged projects to be build after submitting a small change to fix a broken build (e.g. add a missing import after a merge error).
It can of course be done by manually changing the build config to include the -rf <module> in the build-step, but I see at least two problems with this:
I don't want manual edits, it should be automatically.
There might be additional build-steps which I want to skip. (E.g building custom library jars)
I don't think there is a way to tell jenkins to do this automatically, unless there's a plugin that i don't know of that does that.
What you can do to make the process a little more smooth is to create a parameterized build which gets as a parameter the correct module you want to run, so when you click build you could have a drop down menu or something similar to choose from.

Hudson - save artifacts only when less than 90% passes

I am new at this and I was wondering how I can setup that I save the artifacts, only if less than 90% of the tests have passed.
Any idea how I can do this?
thanks
This is not currently possible with Hudson. What is the motivation to avoid archiving artifacts on every build?
How about a rather simple workaround. You create a post build step (or additional build step) that calls your tests from the command line. Be sure to capture all errors so Hudson don't count it as a failure. Than you evaluate your condition and set the error level accordingly. In addition you need to save reports (probably outside hudson) before you set the error level, so they are available even or only when the build fails.
My assumption here is, that it is OK, not to run the tests when building the app fails. However, you can separate the building and testing in two jobs. See here.
