RhodeCode - Developer Porn.

It's not secret, that I tend to use mercurial. It really is the James Bond of DVCS and you get far without using any third party suff. One really cool and easy to set up feature is hgwebdir. With hgwebdir you can setup up a central repository in your company or team to easily collaborate on projects. But there is a downside to hgwebdir. With a growing number of projects hgwebdir gets really really slow. Even with the apache mod_wsgi setup this becomes an issue at some point of time. Using SSH would be a solution to this problem, but we have commiters that have to use https, since they can't be allowed to ssh onto the machine or VPN into our network for security reasons. Also this would compliate the setup a lot since you would have to deal with file permissions and ssh certs.

After digging in the dirt I found RhodeCode that seems to solve this problem and gives us some more really cool features.

First of it all it's really damn fast. Cloning and committing in huge projects just takes a few seconds where hgwebdir had to think about it for a minute. It has a nice web interface where you can create new projects, add users, set the permissions for the projects, monitor projects, clone projects, browse the change logs, comment on commits or lines in the code, fork projects and manage pull requests. And did I mention that it is super fast? ;)

This is more or less a reminder for myself. If you haven't set the permission 'WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE' in the AndroidManifest.xml tracing will fail with a permission denied.

Instead of complaining about permissions a hint from the ADT would have been nice.

Splash Screens are not exactly common (or really wanted) on Android. But occasionally there are customers that want that kind of thing. When I took a look around, I found a lot of solutions with different approaches. One of the more sophisticated ones used a thread to count the remaining ...

tags: Django Python Web

This is really ugly and you will absolutely need it if you'd like to json serialize form errors in Django. Why? Because you'd like to reply to an AJAX request and just pass trough the errors your form has generated.

simplejson itself is not able to serialize the ...

Juno with WSGI

tags: Python Web

Just a quick note on the wonderful Juno framework, which I've been using for a small project. Sadly the documentation isn't quite clear when it comes to deployment with mod_wsgi. At least I had some head scratching while reading through the documentation and just had to figure out ...
