I have defined /tmp/ as my source directory. I want to backup only in1/ and in2/ subfolders from it. What lines do I need in profile's exclude file?
/tmp/a
├── in1
│ └── in.txt
├── in2
│ └── in.txt
└── out.txt
According to duplicity man page's dir/foo example, I tried:
+ in1/
+ in2/
- **
But that did not work and I got error as:
Reading globbing filelist /path/to/duply_profile/exclude
Fatal Error: The file specification
in1/
cannot match any files in the base directory
/tmp
Useful file specifications begin with the base directory or some
pattern (such as '**') which matches the base directory.
better use up-to-date man page from duplicity's website https://duplicity.us/stable/duplicity.1.html#file-selection
not sure why the example relative paths is in there, but as the error states you will need something along the lines
+ /tmp/in1/
+ /tmp/in2/
- **
feel free to post a bug ticket on https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity/-/issues so maybe someday some kind soul would make it work with relative paths.
I figured that the following specification work:
+ **in1/
+ **in2/
- **
Suppose my directory is like this:
Project
|
|
| -- Jenkinsfile
|
| -- SubFolder1
|
| -- SubFolder2
I am using a script version of Jenkinsfile. I am wondering, how can I iterate through Project and get all folder names as one string?
If I do something like:
def filenames = [];
def dir = new File("$PWD");
dir.traverse(type: FILES, maxDepth: 0) {
filenames.add(it.getName())
}
It doesn't work since $PWD doesnt seem to be the actual current Project/ directory. Thanks!
${WORKSPACE} will point to the current running job local file system path.
See: http://localhost:8080/env-vars.html/ for environment variables list
Change localhost and port to your Jenkins instance.
I've been trying to figure out best practices on implementing environment variables for API configurations in Svelte App. As far as I know, We have to use either Vite or Svite to make it work. Can anyone help me find a solution please ??
This is how I did it but I bet there are other good practices
I make use of dotenv and $lib provided by SvelteKit.
Below are my folder structure and related js:
├── sveltekit-project/ // Root
| ├── src/
| | ├── lib/
| | | ├── env.js
| | | ├── other.js
| | | ...
| | |
| | ├── routes/
| | | ├── main.svelte
| | | ...
| | ├── app.html
| | ...
| ├── .env
/** /src/lib/env.js **/
import dotenv from 'dotenv'
dotenv.config()
export const env = process.env
/** /src/lib/other.js **/
import { env } from '$lib/env'
const secret = env.YOUR_SECRET
By the way, I recommend you reading the "How do I use environment variables?" part in SvelteKit FAQ. It seems very relevant to what you concern, but I am afraid it means some workarounds are needed instead of the VITE_* variables..
There seems to be some confusion around the security issues, but it's actually quite simple.
If you want to use insensitive information, proceed like this:
create an .env and/or .env.local, .env.production file, read more here https://vitejs.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#env-files
name your variable VITE_<some name> for example VITE_API_URL to store where your backend location is. That's not sensitive information so it's ok to expose this through your svelte app to the internet.
you can then access this directly inside of the script tags in svelte like this: import.meta.env.VITE_API_URL
If you have sensitive information:
Then you shouldn't expose it in a svelte client... PLEASE don't do something like suggested in Saad's answer and expose your API key to the public! Instead you'll need a server to securely hold that information, but how to setup a server is then again a different topic.
Warning
The VITE_ prefix would expose sensitive information to client side! More info
Normally, I'd simply delete this answer, but its clear that the whole import.meta.env.VITE_SECRET_PASSWORD is not a clever design. What is the point of using a .env variable that is not secure, per the security note warning at https://vitejs.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#env-files ??
As a developer, my expectation is that I can use .env variables to store secure information.
Let this answer stand as a warning: Do not do this.
My original response below:
I spent some time struggling here..
Environment Variable file, must be named .env:
VITE_SENDGRID_API_KEY=SG.9999999999....999999999999
I spent way too much time to figure out that sendgrid.env as a filename will not work.
I added a file to the /src/lib directory called env.js. Here are the complete contents of that file:
export const ENV_OBJ = {
SENDGRID_API_KEY: import.meta.env.VITE_SENDGRID_API_KEY,
TEST: "test, test, test"
};
And then when I need it elsewhere...
import { ENV_OBJ } from '$lib/env'
// console.log("API Key.test: ", ENV_OBJ.TEST);
sgMail.setApiKey(ENV_OBJ.SENDGRID_API_KEY);
I'm using SvelteKit, Javascript, etc... No extra dotenv. Keep it simple, make it easy.
Make sure all your environment variables start with the prefix "VITE_".
Example:
VITE_API_KEY=8465313163463435434353535
Include your variable in the Svelte file using the syntax "import.meta.env.VARIABLE_NAME".
Example:
headers: {
"X-RapidAPI-Key": import.meta.env.VITE_API_KEY
}
And that's it. Hope that helps.
I have a .dockerignore file and I'm trying to allow Docker to upload only *.json files but from any of subfolders.
For example, for the next files structure:
public/readme.md
public/subfolder/a.json
public/subfolder/b.json
public/other/c.json
public/other/file.txt
I'm expecting to see only json files in the image:
public/subfolder/a.json
public/subfolder/b.json
public/other/c.json
Of course they must be located in the same directories as in original source.
I tried several ways but didn't succeed.
UP: I don't know how many subfolders will be created in the public/ directory and how deep will be the directories structure.
I think you can achieve what you want by relying on one such .dockerignore:
public/*
!public/subfolder
public/subfolder/*
!public/other
public/other/*
!**/*.json
The tricky thing is that the first line of this file is public/* but not public nor * (otherwise the !... subsequent lines won't work).
Note also that you may want to automate the generation of one such .dockerignore, to cope with possible tree structure changes.
For example:
gen-dockerignore.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash
{ echo '*' ; # header of the .dockerignore - to be changed if need be
find public -type d -exec echo -en "!{}\n{}/*\n" \; ;
echo '!**/*.json' ; } > .dockerignore
$ ./gen-dockerignore.sh would output the following file:
.dockerignore
*
!public
public/*
!public/other
public/other/*
!public/subfolder
public/subfolder/*
!**/*.json
I would like to pack my firefox extension as xpi file. I tried by adding it to archive and name it as filename.xpi
But when i try to install it on firefox am getting "package corrupted" message. Is there any way i can create a valid xpi file ?
I have installed cygwin and tried to execute zip command to create xpi file. But got zip is not a command error.
Can somebody guide me to get it done ?
If you are on windows (to install cygwin it looks like you do), you can use the windows built in tool:
Select the contents of the extension (remember, don't select the outside folder).
Right Click
Send to
Compressed (zipped) folder
Then just replace the .zip for .xpi in the filename
Looks like your problem is on completing the point 1. correctly. Select only the contents of the extension. Not the folder that contains it.
So basically your zip file should have following structure:
my_extension.zip
|- install.rdf
|- chrome.manifest
|- <chrome>
and NOT this structure:
my_extension.zip
|- <my_extension>
|- install.rdf
|- chrome.manifest
|- <chrome>
I experienced the same problems today and found the error to be that the add-on was obviously not signed by Mozilla, causing Firefox to refuse the installation. Up until recently, it was possible to by-pass this security check by setting xpinstall.signatures.required to false in about:config. However, as of Firefox 46, signing is mandatory and no by-pass is provided any longer, see https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2016/01/22/add-on-signing-update/ This means that one has to either downgrade to a previous version or use a non release channel version to test one's addons :(
Also, here's how I pack an extension for Firefox with command line 7z:
cd /the/extension/folder/
7z a ../<extension_name>.xpi * -r
(where 'a' stands for "add/create" and "-r" for recursive)
Or to update the extension with the file(s) we just edited:
cd /the/extension/folder/
7z u ../<extension_name>.xpi * -r
("u" for update the archive's content)
Two methods, using the GUI 7zFM.exe, or a command line or batch file.
1.0) GUI method. Assuming 7-Zip is installed with shell integration so you see 7-Zip show up in the context-menu (right-click of selected files) of Windows Explorer.
1.a) Go into the folder of your add-on.
1.b) Select all the files and folders you want to include in the .xpi. Assuming you don't have any files you want to ignore down in any sub-folders. If you do, you might want to use the command line option.
1.c) Right-click on the list of selected files, find the 7z icon, choose the Add to archive... option.
1.d) A dialog pops up. Edit the location and name of the zip file, change to .zip to .xpi, etc.
1.e) Note if you create the .xpi in the same folder, don't re-archive it in the future, as your add-on will fail horribly. You never want an .xpi ending up inside your .xpi by accident. I usually just create it in the parent folder, by adding ..\ to the beginning of the file name, e.g. ..\addon-1.2.3-fx.xpi
1.f) 7-Zip has a lot of powerful compression options, not all of which Firefox can handle. Choose settings which Firefox is able to process. Refer to image.
2.0) Command Line method. Assuming you're in Windows, and know how to open a command prompt, change drives and directories (a.k.a. folders).
2.a) CD to your add-on directory.
2.b) Use the most basic 7-Zip command line.
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -tzip addon-1.2.3-fx.xpi *
2.c) You can get a smaller file by finding the exact command line options which correspond to the above GUI, namely:
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -tzip -mx=9 -mm=Deflate -mfb=258 -mmt=8 "addon-1.2.3-fx.xpi" *
Note that there is no Dictionary size = 32kb option when using Deflate Compression method. Otherwise, the options are in order and correspond to the GUI.
|-----------------------|---------|--------------|
| Option / Parameter | GUI | Command line |
|-----------------------|---------|--------------|
| Archive format | zip | -tzip |
| Compression level | Ultra | -mx=9 |
| Compression method | Deflate | -mm=Deflate |
| Dictionary size | 32 KB | (none) |
| Word size | 258 | -mfb=258 |
| Number of CPU threads | 8 | -mmt=8 |
|-----------------------|---------|--------------|
| Additional Parameters | | |
|-----------------------|---------|--------------|
| Recurse into Folders | (none) | -r |
| Multiple passes | (none) | -mpass=15 |
| Preserve Timestamps | (none) | -mtc=on |
| Ignore files in list | | -x#{ignore} |
|-----------------------|---------|--------------|
Notes:
i) The multi-thread option (-mmt=8) is specific to my system which has 8 cores. You will need to lower this to 6 or 4 or 2 or 1 (i.e. remove option) if you have fewer cores, etc, or increase if you have more. Won't make much difference either way for a small extension.
ii) The option to recurse into folder may or may not be the default, so specifying this option should ensure proper recursion.
iii) The option to preserve windows timestamps (creation, access, modification) should default to on anyways, so may not be needed.
iv) The ignore files in list option is any file which has a list of files and wildcards of files you wish to exclude.
2.d) Advanced topic #1: ignore file list (examples)
|----------------|------------------------------------|
| What to Ignore | Why to Ignore |
|----------------|------------------------------------|
| TODO.txt | Informal reminders of code to fix. |
| *.xpi | In case you forget warning above! |
| .ignore | Ignore the ignore file list. |
| ignore.txt | Same thing, if you used this name. |
|----------------|------------------------------------|
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -tzip -mx9 -mm=Deflate -mfb=258 -mmt=8 -mpass=15 -mtc=on "addon-1.2.3-fx.xpi" * -x#ignore.txt
2.e) Advanced topic #2: Batch file (Windows CMD.EXE), assuming fairly recent windows, i.e. from the 21st century. This can be as simple and rigid, or complex and flexible as you care to make it. A general balance is to assume you will be in the Command Prompt, in the top level directory of the add-on you are working on, and that you have intelligently named that directory to have the same basename of the .xpi file e.g. D:\dev\addon-1.2.3-fx directory for the addon-1.2.3-fx.xpi add-on xpi. This batch file makes this assumption, and dynamically figures out the correct basename to use for the .xpi.

When pack extension using 7z, compress into .zip and then rename to .xpi, dont compress i
Do as per the following while using 7z
Select only the inner contents and not the outer folder.
Enter the filename as filename.xpi and choose archive format as zip in the prompt that appears while zipping.
You will find a valid xpi file created.
Use the created xpi for installing your extension on firefox.
It works!
Just zip all the files and folders inside my_extension folder and change the resulting zipped file's extension to my_extension.xpi
/my_extension
|- defaults/
|- locale/
|- resources/
|- install.rdf
|- ... (other files and folders)
Installation of xpi file created from zipped file of my_extension folder will result error as
"This add-on could not be installed because it appears to be corrupt." error
I try myself to build a zip in several ways because I was convinced I do something wrong 'cause all i got was "package corrupted" stuff .
well.. not anymore and I do not even need to load it from Load temporary add-on (now i drag and drop the xpi file from the desktop over Waterfox and I install it as legit xpi file!
How I do that?
'Cause I try myself the github stuff I load it first in Load temporary add-on (url:about:debugging#addons) the xpi file using the method used by user314159 with the .bat file method that use 7zip.
after you load that you should read somewhere something similar to:
Extension ID
86257e65ca311ee368ffcee50598ce25733a049b#temporary-addon
then all you should do is add inside manifest.json modifying the "applications" :
"applications": {
"gecko": {
"strict_min_version": "54.0a1",
"id": "86257e65ca311ee368ffcee50598ce25733a049b#temporary-addon"
}
},
after this push Remove to uninstall the temporary addon then you should build the xpi again like you did before
now is a normal xpi file SIGNED what you can install normal ! (here is works without modifying anything else)
I use Waterfox x64 i's seems to be problems to Firefox
the answer is you should upload your extension on the hub then to use mozilla signing api
