Dropbucket.org repository of snippets for Drupal

image

I have long been working with Drupal for many years of practice I have accumulated a lot of snippets for different tasks. During this time I kept these pieces of code: in Notepad, in evernote, in gist, the IDE (which alternated as gloves). Whenever I needed to find a particular piece of code in order to reuse or I began the tedious search among all of this digital stacks, or simply wrote code first.

Eventually I got tired and after a long and lengthy search for a convenient online store for my snippets, and I went through Oh Oh how many decisions, it was decided to create their own, and strictly Drupal-based repository. Such a narrow focus — a tribute to the Drupal community that such a project "under itself" still had.

So there was a Dropbucket.org, which was launched a month ago and received quite a good press in the Western part of the Drupal community. To date, the website has registered 800 Drupal developers from all corners of our planet (including, of course, Russia and Ukraine).



Next, I will briefly talk about the major features of the project and that he in the end gives Drupal developer.

So the main idea Dropbucket'a — to create a place where you can save your own snippets categorizer them on themes and Drupal versions, and wish to share their experience with other developers.

Adding snippets


My main desire was to make as simple as possible the scheme of addition of the snippets. Adding form code snippet looks like this:

image


There are only two fields are mandatory: title and the code itself, other fields are optional.

Each snippet may consist of several functional pieces that are added using the button "Add another source code":

In case you do not want others to see your snippet, it's easy to make private:

Page snippet


On the page of the snippet you can obtain the "raw" version of the code elicriso to copy it to the clipboard:

image

One of the most popular features is the cloning of a snippet when you can clone any posted on the service the snippet to edit it for yourself:

But that's not all, the snippet can be added to favorites, it is possible to vote, leave comments and add to personal lists of snippets.

Each edition of code creates a separate audit, you can view the previous revisions of the code:

Personal list snippets


A week ago we added a new feature "Personal lists snippets", which allows you to create a list of all snippets:

By clicking the button "Add to list":

image

A menu appears with which there are all necessary additions to lists and create lists:

Such feature is useful for creating knowledge bases on a particular theme Drupal programming and disseminating it, for example, among team members. Imagine "the List of snippets to the database".

Search snippet


To find a suitable snippet of code among the rubble of this task is important. Its solution was the creation of a flexible filter which gives the ability to filter snippets by keywords to Drupal versions, categories and even user names:

image

Each filter can be monitored by subscribing to it through RSS reader. For example, it will look like a feed "Ajax" snippets for Drupal 7: dropbucket.org/rss.xml?keys=&field_category_tid=29&field_drupal_version_tid=4&name=. A handy feature for those who want to follow a specific category codes.

Social profile


Each user gets a profile address of the form dropbucket.org/имя_пользователяwhere you can see information about the developer, statistics, history of activity and its Drupal Karma (well, as without karma, eh?). For each correct and wrong move on the Drupal website you earn Karma, which in the future would be to hand out all sorts of buns.

Future


For the future plans a lot, after the release of the service I got a ton of ideas and proposals among which you want to filter is needed to set priorities and move forward. Among the most likely improvements:

the
    the
  • Processing of the interface categories of snippets, I'm not very happy with how it looks now;
    • the
  • the Introduction of APIs for integration with various ides;
    • the
  • the Ability to export your own snippets;
    • the
  • Great socialization and engagement.


But the most important thing is that minimum viable product is already there, it works, and solves its main task and people really like it.

Thank you for your attention and hope that the project will appeal to Russian-speaking Drupal community, despite the fact that the interface is not our native language.

Suggestions and comments please leave in the comments your opinion is valuable to me.

Monitoring PostgreSQL + php-fpm + nginx + disk using Zabbix

a Lot of information in the network according to Zabbix, and a lot of bespoke templates, I want to introduce to the audience his modification. Zabbix is a very convenient and flexible monitoring tool. Want a hundred monitor, I want a thousand stations, and do not want to — watch a single server, take the cream in all sections. I would not mind to give to github, if anyone collects similar. It so happened that we decided to put on the hosting database wrapper php-fpm+nginx. As the database is postgres. Thoughts to collect data on the machine was before the purchase of hosting is needed, this is useful! Magic kick up the backside to the implementation of the system gave the brakes a hard drive on our VDS stations at the beginning of the script every minute, put the time and measured by the speed in the file, and then build graphs in Excel to compare to as it was/became, take quantitative statistics. And this is just one option! And suddenly the fault is not VDS, and our a

Templates ESKD and GOST 7.32 for Lyx 1.6.x

for more than six months I use a word processor Lyx. Built-in templates is more than enough to write lecture notes, prepare for seminars and to do simple reports for laboratory work. But last semester I had to make two course of the project in accordance with the requirements ESKD. I have begun work in Lyx, but without special templates of documents, my reports in the editor looked like this: A little work, a little reading of the document "Customizing LyX: Features for the Advanced User" and it turned out where the beam: You can use immediately. If you have experience of working in Lyx, problems will not arise. Just in case the attached sample documents. Description of how to make such templates are not yet doing. Someone will ask — will tell.

Customize your Google

After writing this post, I was interested in the search parameters which you can use for convenient operation. Given this issue, in Runet I'm more or less full information is not found. But! It turns out Google for a long time and for all shown . Let's start simple — www.google.com/search?q=Запрос this is the simplest query, in which all options are disabled or parameters are used which are stored in your cookies. Next I will talk about the most interesting and used parameters. If you want to know more, you here . Even though it is called the search parameter, I will use the word token. So any of the marks are for the test, insert the end of the line (if your line is of the same kind as just above). Marker search by country &cr=countryRU Putting this token, we get the results from the specified country. List of acronyms used.
