<title>Trello for Feelings</title>
<link>http://spencer.gibb.us/blog/2015/10/06/trello-for-feelings/</link>
<pubDate>Tue, 06 Oct 2015 09:07:07 -0600</pubDate>
<guid>http://spencer.gibb.us/blog/2015/10/06/trello-for-feelings/</guid>
<description><p>Computer geeks often don&rsquo;t know how to express their feelings very well. If <a href="http://randsinrepose.com/archives/the-nerd-handbook/">The Nerd Handbook</a> rings a bell for you or your significant other, you know what I&rsquo;m talking about. It rang true with me. The trouble I have is how to deal with someone else&rsquo;s feelings and figure out what the heck mine are. I had a thought the other day and so far it has helped.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I was sitting in a weekly project meeting where we discuss things relevant to our project: bugs, releases, hiring, problems, highlights, etc&hellip; I was listening when I had the thought, &ldquo;I wish feelings were as easy as software.&rdquo; I had seen a colleague <a href="https://twitter.com/caseywest/status/650788737614540806">tweet</a> about a <a href="http://osfeels.com/">software conference about feelings</a>. Then I thought, why not?</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve always admired <a href="http://trello.com">Trello</a> as a project management tool, but haven&rsquo;t had a really good, solid opportunity to use it. I&rsquo;ve heard friends and co-workers say they use it at home for shopping and to-do lists. What if I could use it to help me talk about feelings with my wife? I setup a short appointment (20-45 min) 3-4 times a week on our calendar. I created a private Trello <a href="https://trello.com/guide/board_basics.html">board</a> that we could use to guide our discussions. I created lists like: To Discuss, Follow Up, Completed and Goals. The first card I created was titled &ldquo;Trello&rdquo; and had a checklist to show her how to use Trello. Next was &ldquo;Outline&rdquo;, how would these discussions go.</p>
<p>The goal is for each of us to put a few things at the top of the &ldquo;To Discuss&rdquo; list for each session. It can be anything, from bugeting (our first item) to feelings about kids or each other or the in-laws. If you need to noodle on something for a day, move it to &ldquo;Follow Up&rdquo;. When you&rsquo;re done, move it to &ldquo;Completed&rdquo;. If you decide that the item discussed is really a goal you both want to pursue (you can see where this is headed), move it to &ldquo;Goals&rdquo;.</p>
<p>For me it is helpful to have an idea ahead of time what the other wants to talk about. I&rsquo;m not as anxious about how to react or what to say. It&rsquo;s nerdy too as there are good mobile apps, so you don&rsquo;t have to be in front of a computer to add ideas.</p>
<p>Not to say that this replaces all communication, but for me it&rsquo;s a good start and for my wife it&rsquo;s a relief.</p>

<title>Spring Cloud Config Push Notifications</title>
<link>http://spencer.gibb.us/blog/2015/09/24/spring-cloud-config-push-notifications/</link>
<pubDate>Thu, 24 Sep 2015 10:48:18 -0600</pubDate>
<guid>http://spencer.gibb.us/blog/2015/09/24/spring-cloud-config-push-notifications/</guid>
<description><p><a href="https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-config/commit/8d8e07a78e73c3e1e08f4277a76c6e1a4104f103">This commit (8d8e07a78)</a>
by <a href="https://github.com/dsyer">Dave Syer</a> in <a href="https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-config">spring-cloud-config</a>
added support for <a href="http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html#_push_notifications_and_spring_cloud_bus">push notifications</a>
to config clients.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> I am using <a href="https://github.com/jkbrzt/httpie">HTTPie</a> (pronounced <em>aych-tee-tee-pie</em>) for these demos. I believe it provides a more user friendly experience. To install on a mac with <a href="http://brew.sh/">Homebrew</a>: <code>brew install httpie</code>, otherwise see <a href="https://github.com/jkbrzt/httpie#installation">the install docs</a>.</p>
<h2 id="dependencies">Dependencies</h2>
<pre><code class="language-xml">&lt;parent&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-starter-parent&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;Brixton.BUILD-SNAPSHOT&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;relativePath /&gt; &lt;!-- lookup parent from repository --&gt;
&lt;/parent&gt;
&lt;dependencies&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-config-monitor&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-starter-bus-redis&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;!-- or -amqp (rabbitmq) or -kafka --&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
&lt;!-- ... --&gt;
&lt;/dependencies&gt;
</code></pre>
<p>I&rsquo;m using redis, installed via Homebrew. The bus dependency needs to be in configserver and each config client.</p>
<p>I simply modified the <a href="https://github.com/spring-cloud-samples/configserver">sample configserver</a> who&rsquo;s main method starts out like this.</p>
<pre><code class="language-java">@Configuration
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@EnableDiscoveryClient
@EnableConfigServer
public class ConfigServerApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(ConfigServerApplication.class, args);
}
}
</code></pre>
<h2 id="manual-push">Manual push</h2>
<p>The <code>/monitor</code> endpoint includes a form encoded post that you can trigger as follows:</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">http --form POST :8888/monitor path=configserver
</code></pre>
<p>This allows you to develop your own hooks. It also allows for a central api to manually trigger refresh events.</p>
<h2 id="remote-refresh-event">Remote Refresh Event</h2>
<p>Config clients need to have the following dependencies (again, assuming redis) from <code>Brixton.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</code></p>
<pre><code class="language-xml">&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-starter-config&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-starter-bus-redis&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;!-- or -amqp (rabbitmq) or -kafka --&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
</code></pre>
<p>When a successful event is received, you should see something like this in the logs:</p>
<pre><code>2015-09-24 12:15:54.257 INFO 11202 --- [enerContainer-2] o.s.cloud.bus.event.RefreshListener : Received remote refresh request. Keys refreshed [info.description]
</code></pre>
<h2 id="gitlab-webhook">Gitlab webhook</h2>
<p>The Gitlab wehbhook doesn&rsquo;t list the files that changed, so all applications will receive a refresh event. That&rsquo;s the reason I don&rsquo;t have a specific configuration in the simulation link below.</p>
<pre><code class="language-java">@Bean
public GitlabPropertyPathNotificationExtractor gitlabPropertyPathNotificationExtractor() {
return new GitlabPropertyPathNotificationExtractor();
}
</code></pre>
<p>To simulate the gitlab webhook:</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">http --json POST :8888/monitor X-Gitlab-Event:&quot;Push Event&quot; commits:='[{}]'
</code></pre>
<h2 id="github-webhook">Github webhook</h2>
<p>Github reports what files were added, deleted and modified and attempts to only send notifications to the impacted services.</p>
<pre><code class="language-java">@Bean
public GithubPropertyPathNotificationExtractor githubPropertyPathNotificationExtractor() {
return new GithubPropertyPathNotificationExtractor();
}
</code></pre>
<p>To simulate the github webhook:</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">http --json POST :8888/monitor X-Github-Event:&quot;push&quot; commits:='[{&quot;modified&quot;: [&quot;configserver.yml&quot;] }]'
</code></pre>
<h3 id="test-github-via-ngrok">Test github via ngrok:</h3>
<p><a href="https://ngrok.com/download">Install ngrok</a> first.</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">ngrok 8888
</code></pre>
<p>Add <code>https://41b2063a.ngrok.com/monitor</code> to you config repo&rsquo;s github webhooks settings. Commit changes and profit!</p>
<h2 id="filesystem-watcher">Filesystem watcher</h2>
<p>For the <code>native</code> file based repository, a watch is created that polls the filesystem for changes. If a change is found, a change event is sent.</p>
<h2 id="update-1">Update #1</h2>
<h3 id="auto-configuration">Auto-configuration</h3>
<p>You no longer need to add <code>@Bean</code>s for each extractor, it is auto-configured, and you can disable them with:</p>
<pre><code>spring.cloud.config.server.monitor.{github|gitlab|bitbucket}.enabled=false
</code></pre>
<h3 id="bitbucket-webhook">Bitbucket webhook</h3>
<p>If you create webhook for your config server <code>/watches</code> on Bitbucket, it will trigger a global config update similar to Gitlab. Bitbucket doesn&rsquo;t says what files changed.</p>
<p>To simulate the Bitbucket webhook:</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">http --json POST :8888/monitor X-Event-Key:&quot;repo:push&quot; X-Hook-UUID:123 push:='{&quot;changes&quot;: [{}]}'
</code></pre></description>
