linkChek 1.0.0!

-

So this past weekend, I've finally released the CLI tool we've been working on this whole semester for its first offical release! linkChek 1.0.0 is up on npm and GitHub! Last week we were tasked by our professor for our final lab, to release our CLI program that we've been gradually working on throughout the labs for this semester and polish it up for production.

So as a Node.JS app, I had to look up how to release my program on the npm registry. The process was quite simple. I just had to edit the package.json file a little bit with info such as keywords for the npm database, final name for release, and github repo links, just to name a few. 

So I pushed my final commit on the master branch for the release, added the 1.0.0 tag and followed these instructions to publish an unscoped package up on npm website.



Now you can install and run linkChek with this command in your shell

npx linkChek

or

npm install linkChek


Here is the page on the NPM website : linkChek [https://www.npmjs.com/package/link-chek]

Here is the GitHub repo page : linkChek [https://github.com/joelazwar/linkChek]

Release 0.3 : Telescope and The Quest for Infinity.... Scroll

Welcome adventurers, sit down while I tell a little story of a brave programmer who slayed an issue so boldly, his PR request broke a record all time high of 57 comments. Alright so Release 0.3. Got it done right on time, just by the hair... I took on an issue on Telescope that was to add paging functionality to the search results, which also related to the another issue which is to enable infinite scrolling to the same component. Prior to this, humphd (our valiant maintainer and professor, whos been reviewing like a million PRs for the past few days.) has already added the SWR react hook to implement the same feature but on the home page feed. So I used that as a reference point. Issue #1222 I started work on the issue and first tried to implement the swr react hook with the current search components we had. This was confusing and tricky since with a search page we want to wait for the parameters for the search to be entered and then wait for the user to click the search button befor

Introduction

Hi everyone, welcome to my blog. My name is Joel Azwar and I'm a student/amateur programmer studying Computer Programming and Analysis in Seneca College in Toronto. I've taken up an Open Source Development course this semester and this blog is going to be dedicated to my ventures into open source technology and the progress that comes along with learning about it. So it's going to be my personal developer journal.  Open Source technology is something that's always intrigued me about the field of programming. I think it's quite fascinating how programmers all around the world can combine each other's efforts to improve, fix, or change something very drastically. Regardless of what they do, it helps advance the project one way or another which is a positive all around.  The scale of it is also quite captivating. There are millions of developers all around the world and they can contribute to any open source projects. I truly believe open source technology is a qui

Git : Rebasing Refactoring Amending

As if I still don't know everything about git. This week learn about rebasing and amending, rewriting git history as the prof described it. So let's say you're writing a word document and you're in the editing phase. You violently mash Ctrl+S every time you make a small fix. Adding punctuation, deleting a word, making a new line, you save again and again and again. Now imagine if you had a log for every time  you save that file, like a git commit. Now that's a lot of entries, and we as coders do this with git commiting as well, but with git saving and tracking each one of those commits, our logs get a bit convoluted and messy. That's why git rebasing and amending is here to save the day. So for this week's lab our prof wanted us to practice these new git concepts by polishing our code and git commiting to our hearts content, since we will be rebasing in the end. So I made my changes and made a couple of commits to the code. Once I was satisfied with the chan
