Configure Google domain email in Vercel with ImprovMX

posted in Architecture on 2021-01-27   vercel email google improvmx

Back in February last year I blog on topic Email not working after DNS change. Well, I had kinda similar situation but not exactly. This time I bought a domain from Google and wanted to use an email with it. The setup wasn't obvious for me so I decided to document the process.

Copy files and directories from and to Kubernetes pods

posted in Architecture on 2020-12-11   Kubernetes copy pods ssh

At work we have a project that uses node:10-jessie image as a base for its docker container. That image has no vi inside so I wondered how to check the content of a file. Luckily kubectl has a neat command to copy files from and to a pod.

Email not working after DNS change

posted in Architecture on 2020-02-07   email dns not working zeit domain working google mx record mail server services thing

I just recently moved my outset.ws domain to Zeit name servers. That's my 13 years old domain which I'm not using it anymore. It makes sense to point to krasimirtsonev.com. The thing is that I have an email which is used all over the net. I of course want to keep that email. And suddenly I wasn't able to receive messages to it. I started missing some very important emails. Like bills that have to be paid and GitHub notifications.

Running Prettier for specific Git branch

posted in Architecture on 2020-01-14   prettier git bash script branch file awk print echo file awk run prettier line column file mode files project

I'm working on a project in my own git branch. At the end of my working day I want to do one thing - run Prettier so my code is nicely formatted before I submit the PR for code review. Of course I know about the VSCode Prettier extension but right now my editor is kinda broken and I don't want to mess with it. I'm still on my branch and I run Prettier from the terminal. All good but the amount of changes that happened is so big that my 50+ loc updates are like a needle in a haystack. It is like that because apparently there are already malformatted files in the project. It is definitely not possible to understand what I did because of so much noise. So ... I want to run Prettier but only on the files that I touched in that particular branch.

Apache .htaccess for HTML5 push state manipulations

This is a quick post so I document my two hours research. I'm working on a open source library for routing in the browser. Or in other words JavaScript library that uses the history API. The thing is that locally I'm using Apache as a dev server and I wanted all the request to specific folder to be redirected to index.html.

Git under windows (console mode)

posted in Architecture on 2013-05-29   git windows powershell file aliases function command status alias set

I'm a Windows user. I also have a virtual machine with Ubuntu installed and coding there from time to time. I use Git a lot and in general I prefer console mode over the GUI. Under Unix everything works just great, but Windows's command prompt requires more efforts from our side. However I found some helpful tips, which could make your life easier.

SVN: Ignoring files and directories

I really like GIT and I think that is a better version control system than SVN. Anyway, I still have to use SVN for some projects and ignoring files is always a problem.

How To Design A Good API and Why it Matters

posted in Architecture on 2012-10-27   developers api

Every day around the world, software developers spend much of their time working with a variety of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Some are integral to the core platform, some provide access to widely distributed frameworks, and some are written in-house for use by a few developers. Nearly all programmers occasionally function as API designers, whether they know it or not. A well-designed API can be a great asset to the organization that wrote it and to all who use it. Good APIs increase the pleasure and productivity of the developers who use them, the quality of the software they produce, and ultimately, the corporate bottom line ...

Why we should think about our CSS

posted in Architecture on 2012-06-05   css browsers block rendering tv device ratio print tv device g print tv e g print browsers download css page browsers download white page browsers experience white page

_The evil that CSS do:- Browsers block rendering until all CSS arrives. With the worst possible experience: white page.- Browsers download CSS they don't need, e.g. print, tv, device-ratio... And most browsers block rendering because of these too- Sometimes CSS blocks the other downloads too (not just block rendering, but block images and scripts that follow) - when followed by an inline SCRIPT or when it's a CSS in conditional comment for IE_Read the full artcile by Stoyan Stefanov here.

In my opinion that principle is really important and stays in the fundamentals of software design._In the context of the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) we define a responsibility to be "a reason for change." If you can think of more than one motive for changing a class, then that class has more than one responsibility. This is sometimes hard to see._Read more about this principle here.
