I made a very nice customized view for my various hudson jobs. I was wondering if it is possible to set a default hudson view so I when go to hudson it gives me my very nice customized view with build history, and pie and bar graphs. Just makes it easier since I open and work with it everyday.
It could cut crucial seconds off my development time :P
Thanks.
Under "Manage Hudson" > Configure System
There is an option to choose the default view.
You can set your default view under your user preferences: click on your username, then Configure.
Or you can set the default view for all users under Manage Hudson -> Configure System.

I've been experimenting with using Chrome DevTools as my primary authoring tool, and am now mostly using them.
As I continue to increase my usage, I'm running into some pain points.
Usually, when I begin working on a project, I now create a dedicated Chrome profile for it. I do this automatically by invoking Chrome with the --user-data-dir flag and storing the browser profile right within the project.
Then I go into the tools, set up my workspace, map my local directories, and so forth. This works great.
What doesn't work so great is that this is a very repetitive process. I'd love to be able to specify the workspace mappings within the project somehow, and then generate the appropriate profile. I'd also love to be able to set other preferences (like indentation, and various other settings on the DevTools "General" page) in a standard way.
I've thought of three ways this might be possible:
There might be an API for this, but I doubt it, as programmatic manipulation of browser preferences obviously is disfavored (but would someone have carved out an exception for DevTools?),
There might be a way to import/export DevTools preferences, and I might be able to generate the import format,
I might be able to figure out where they're stored in the user directory, and manipulate them myself (so far I haven't, though).
There's also one partial solution I've considered:
I might be able to copy a "template" browser profile to get some of the shared settings above. Then I'd still have to do the workspace mapping each time, but I might be able to get away with not doing the rest.
One really elaborate strategy I could try would be to use browser automation, as suggested in Google Chrome - how can i programmatically enable chrome://flags some of the modules from disable mode to enabled mode? ... but that seems like overkill even as I start using the stuff more heavily; I don't think I'm quite ready to invest that kind of up-front effort in it.
Is anyone familiar enough with how the Chrome DevTools preferences work to judge which strategies might be most promising?
There is no way easily sync DevTools settings. They are stored in localstorage scoped to the DevTools. Which means they are in a special sqlite DB which isn't easy to transfer between machines (plus you'd bring all the other stuff with it.)
Sadly, you are left porting this all around by-hand with each new machine.
I have two system wide keyboards pre-installed on my Tizen Wearable device, the first one is a stock Samsumg's keyboard, the second one - Custom. The first one is a user's default selected in Settings.
I don't want to change the system's default, but I want my application to use the Custom keyboard.
In native API I've seen Tizen::Ui::InputConnection object that can be used as a property in Edit or TextArea controls, but I didn't see anything like this in HTML5 API. Searching Tizen's forum didn't help.
I've also seen in Tizen's SDK IME's WebHelperClient example a number of undocumented commands used to talk to a Tizen's service through a websocket. Probably there is a command to select an active keyboard, but I didn't find it.
Any leads are appreciated.
IMO that is not possible for either web apps or native apps.
Reason:
1. In gear, simultaneously two Keyboard can't be active at the same time.
Also, suppose there is an API available which you can use to change to custom keyboard while your app is running, but what if you close your application not using the normal hardware exit(i.e. Swiping down), rather you close it from "Recent Applications" then the custom keyboard that you activated for your app will be set for other applications as well.
Also the documentation available here doesn't explain anything which you are asking

Once I have deployed my application on Openshift, what is the recommended way / best practice of collecting the: 1) CPU, 2) network, 3) memory, 4) disk storage usage of the app? Basically to monitoring an app.
The best would be if they could be displayed in a time series format. Is it possible to link it with 3rd party service (e.g. New Relic) to do that?
Thanks.
I would say that new relic would be the best way to go for most folks. OpenShift does have a marketplace that brings in lots of different 3rd-party solutions like and makes them super easy to integrate. New Relic is available and best of all you can do it for free. You can go to marketplace.openshift.com to add new relic and there's even a KB that will walk you through it step by step here: https://help.openshift.com/hc/en-us/articles/203467070-How-do-I-add-New-Relic-to-my-application-in-the-OpenShift-Marketplace-.
For the sake of stackoverflow, here are the contents of that article:
1. Go to marketplace.openshift.com and login in
2. Locate New Relic
3. Click on "Try the Free Edition"
4. Complete checkout steps.
This will create your www.newrelic.com account. You can confirm this by going to
purchased products at the top of the page. Then to your new relic add-on and click on "New Relic". This should bring you over to newrelic.com and automatically log you in with your OpenShift marketplace account.
To add New Relic to an individual OpenShift application.
Click on Purchased Products
In the New Relic Section, you should have something like "newrelic_6a260 Standard" and a "add to apps" button.
Click on the "add to apps" button
Select the application you want to add New Relic to.
There are two other options you can use.
AppDynamics - I have used their tools and I really like it for monitoring. It is available as well through the Online Store
DataDog - I have not used them but I have seen the demos at their booth and it looks really good as well.
Would love to hear what you choose and your experience.
You should consider Sysdig Container Monitoring
Of all the tools mentioned, it's the only one that was purpose-built for containers. It uses the metadata from openshift to allow you to group containers dynamically into services (namespaces, deployments, etc).
It gives you host, container, and application metrics, including response time of containers and services using network data.
It provides custom alerting and dashboarding as well.
Finally, if you're the service provider, they have a functionality that enables "service-based access controls" - basically allowing you to limit data access to certain services, again, based on the Openshift's metadata.
Sysdig can be used as a cloud service or as on-premise software depending on your use case. Here is a link to their open shift commons briefing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-w-OD78Hno0
I am trying to provide my users with the option to have my application launch automatically and complete a task at a certain time every week.
I can make my application launch at log in using NativeApplication.nativeApplication.startAtLogin=true but I then want to detect if the time is the time they selected and if it isn't then run the application in the background until the time does match or the user shuts down their computer.
Does anyone know of a way to do this? On Adobe's webpage comparing Flex web apps and desktop apps it implied to me that applications could be run in the background but I'm struggling to find anything.
You can close the initial native window without killing the process
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.autoExit = false;
NativeWindow(this.stage.nativeWindow).close();
OR
You can close the initial native window and create a new window that acts as a desktop widget without appearing in the taskbar with either the UTILITY or LIGHTWEIGHT window type.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/reference/html/flash/display/NativeWindowInitOptions.html#type
Either you keep the process running which times when the next 'job' should be ran, or you can set a system cron job (or something similar) which is specific to the OS. You'll want to use the NativeWindow option of 'LIGHTWEIGHT' so that your application doesn't show up to the user.
Personally, for these kinds of processes, I don't even try to use Air since it isn't really made for this kind of stuff. It's meant to be used for UI based apps and not process based. Use Java or C# instead.
I'm looking for a tool and I'm not even sure of the proper name. Please be patient with me as I explain.
I'm doing a lot of HTML/MVC 2 work. Using the standard MVC 2 view engine, I would like to have an editor that shows real time changes in the browser. If I re-arrange div elements containing standard HTML and some server side components, I would like the browser to update without a manual refresh.
Are there any tools that are currently available that would meet that requirement?
If you use firefox, you can use ReloadEvery plugin and set up refresh every x seconds. This will simulate real time editing.
There's an automatic refresh-on-change tool for IE. It's called ReloadIt, and is available at http://reloadit.codeplex.com . Free. It works with ASPNET MVC, or any server side technology. It does not require IIS. It does require IE.
It's not an add-on to IE, just a companion tool. It does not change the IE install, does not install a BHO or anything like that. So very low-impact installation.
You choose a URL that you'd like to auto-reload, and specify one or more directory paths to monitor for changes. Press F12 to start monitoring.
After you set it, minimize it. Then edit your content files, in whatever tool you prefer to use. When you save, the page gets reloaded. like this:
Similar to what #LukLed suggested, XRefresh is a plug in that will refresh your browser screen automatically.
Instead of refreshing every X seconds, XRefresh will watch a directory tree/set of files and only refresh when one of them changes.
It's great in multi-monitor setups, and saves a few seconds when switching between windows in single monitor setups.
