I've read this guide on Mongoose and MongoDB. The tutorial uses a cloud-based database whereas I want to set up a local one instead. The instructions it gives to me is simply this:

Note: If you prefer you can set up a MongoDb database locally by downloading and installing the appropriate binaries for your system. The rest of the instructions in this article would be similar, except for the database URL you would specify when connecting.

Can anyone help me make sense of what I have to do in clearer terms? Maybe provide me a step by step.

The article I'm referring to: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Express_Nodejs/mongoose#Mongoose_primer

>>61689405
Go download and install mongodb for your operating system. When referring to the database, the url will be localhost or 127.0.0.1 or something.

are you one of these idiot bootcamp boys I've been hearing so much about?

>>61689427
What was the point of the second part of your post? Keep your personal problems to yourself.

wow wdg is really a peace of shit

>>61689436
Sorry to upset you sir, I just thought that maybe an emotionally intelligent adult such as yourself might be able to download and install software without reaching out to /g/ for help.

>>61689427
Anyway you didn't really help me out much.
>the url will be localhost or 127.0.0.1 or something.
Can you provide something more specific? How does it work? Why is my localhost the reference to my database?

>>61689438
>wow wdg is really a peace of shit

Quality man right here.

What do you guys think about Laravel?

>>61689447
So asking for help is against your own terms? You're not making much sense.

In your example, the mongodb server is hosted remotely (mlab, for example), so you connect to that remote db by using it's URI ex:

"uri": "mongodb://<username>:<password>@xxxx.mlab.com:21182/<db>"

In the case you want to host your db yourself, you will be having to point mongoose to your local pc (localhost) or (127.0.0.1) where you will be hosting the mongodb server:

"uri": "mongodb://<username>:<password>@127.0.0.1: 27017/<db>"

So you need to install the mongodb package, install it, en configure user, password, port and db.

>>61689247
Assuming the rest of the code is correct, why doesn't this update work? Have created the objects before and assigned the properties.

 collection.update(query, {$set: plupdate}, {$set: update} 

>>61689451
ok

127.0.0.1 is what's known as a loopback ip address, which refers to your own computer.
You could even say it loops back!

localhost is a machine-specific dns record, pointing to 127.0.0.1

DNS or Domain Name system is a world wide web system which stores names and IP addresses. It helps us get around the internet without plugging in IP addresses.

When you install MongoDB and you need a URL (Universal Resource Locator!) to refer to it, you can refer to
1. Your machine with localhost or 127.0.0.1
2. Your MongoDB via a secondary number, known as a port number

the url may in the end look something like this!
> localhost:27017

Let me know if you have any more questions you fucking moron. Please end your life I seriously hope you did not "graduate" whatever "Educational Institution" you "attended" without finding out what an IP address or DNS record is.

Which is faster, getElementByClassName() or querySelectorAll()?

I forget sometimes that /wdg/ is on 4chan since I have a bookmarklet for it in my webdev bookmarks folder which means I never need to browse any other part of the site. I hope that you get through whatever is troubling you, kid

>>61689742

Referring to Mongoose. Are schemas/models essentially blueprints to derive instances from?

>>61689729
thanks desu

How do I append multiple elements in Javascript?

function buildQuiz() {
  firstq.textContent = question1.question;
  list.appendChild(listitem).innerHTML = question1.answers.a;
  list.appendChild(listitem).innerHTML = question1.answers.b;
}

Building a quiz and would like to have four answers appended to each question. I would like to retain the innerHTML property since I will be adding checkboxes. Any thoughts, /wdg/?

>>61689722
The UI has a sort of harsh business-vibe to it as is. If you're going to use Windows and write your application's UI as a webapp, you may as well keep the harsh business-vibe.

>>61689919
Forgot to add that my issue at the moment is the latter appendChild replacing the first one, so the string from answers.b shows up instead of answers.a.

node.js core dumps why
I'm not smart enough to debug this shit

>>61689713
why not go to jsperf and try it out

>>61689919

appendChild just moves the element. So by appending twice you are moving the element into the list, then out of the list and back into the list.

>>61689919
>>61690188

Follow up, you could do it like this.

var list = document.getElementById('list'),
    answers = ['op', 'is', 'a', 'faggot'];

answers.forEach(function(answer){
    var elem = document.createElement('div');
  elem.innerHTML= answer;
  list.appendChild(elem);
})

>>61689663
>Let me know if you have any more questions you fucking moron. Please end your life I seriously hope you did not "graduate" whatever "Educational Institution" you "attended" without finding out what an IP address or DNS record is.

You're the fucking moron here, for not knowing that /wdg/ is 90% self-taught neets trying to catch their first break. Yeah, not all of us knew what a DNS record was before we started programming.

>>61689663
That was a good explanation, but jesus dude, get off your high horse.

That attitude will keep you back in your career. No one wants to hire a cancerous asshole who makes people feel stupid for asking honest questions. The question anon was asking was a good question and isn't an easy one to google if you don't know where to start. It's one thing to shout people down for asking questions they can easily find answers for, but this is the kind of question that one should ask a human.

Ignorance is a temporary problem that goes away as soon as a person asks for and receives a answer. You can keep people around you ignorant by discouraging them from asking questions, but that doesn't make you smarter. It lowers the level of everyone around you and makes you dumb, which (unlike ignorance) is often a terminal affliction.

Assuming you're new to the tech job market, get your shit together before it's too late. You really don't want to be known as the brilliant asshole who brings down the overall level of whatever team you join.

So I'm learning how to use express js. I read the MDN tutorial on it and now I'm trying to replicate the instructions, but on my own project. I chose to utilize the express application generator. I'm also trying to use the Blizzard API for some data I'd like to use on my website. My question is do I treat the url that I'm given from the API site and simply paste it onto a get method formed on my routes directory?

So would my code look like this

var express = require('express);
var router = express.Router();

router.get('https://us.api.battle.net/wow/leaderboard/3v3?locale=en_US&apikey=private', controller.randomFunction);

I'm really trying to make sense of all this but it seems like I'm turning out to be a slow learner. No bully plz.

>>61692086
just try calling the api and see if this works
for requests about user data you might need to authenticate with oauth

The url works fine by itself. I was previously using the xmlhttprequest and just using regular javascript to call the api. Now I'm trying to move on to express js and wondering if instead of using the xml module I was using before, if the new way is the

router.get('url', callback function);

way

I'm trying my hardest to be clear.

Guys, I am new to this whole wordpress thing, got a sideproject suddenly. Is buying a kewl wp theme a good route? Do they charge monthly?

>>61692926
depends on how much money and time you're willing to spend on this
i have lots of free time and no moneyz so i usually just take an existing free theme, customize it through ui and then slightly edit theme files if i need further customization

if you have some moneyz but no time just buy a good looking theme

if you have more time and basic design skills you could try making your own theme

>>61692926

So, you either need to use the built in http module, or the request module (makes it easier). You're code should look something like this

app.get('/', (req, res, next) => {
  axios.get('blizzardApi.url')
  .then(data => res.json(data))
})

essentially, you should be calling the api request inside the express route

>>61692086
var express = require('express');
var request = require('request');

var app = express();

app.get('wewlad', (req, res, next) => {
request({
method: 'get',
uri: 'https://us.api.battle.net/wow/leaderboard/3v3?locale=en_US&apikey=private'
}, (err, res, body) => {
try {
res.json(JSON.parse(body));
}catch(e){
res.end(500);
}
});
});

app.listen(3000);

Should I just go ahead and learn jQuery since a lot of people use it? Or should I stick to my guns and not learn any external libraries unless it is absolutely necessary, e.g. node.js?

>>61699786
jquerry used to be the shit, especially since it helps you support old brosers
now there's a bazillion of js libs and frameworks, you should learn one of these frameworks instead and use it for bigger projects while still not using external stuff for small projects

Had the final round interview for "senior hybrid mobile developer/specialist" at bigasshealthcarecompany today

6 people in a big meeting room, hour and a half technical.

There was 30 or so questions, mostly about my approach to problems, ionic2, angular 4, typescript.

How would you display 5000 items in a list accounting for performance?

Then about half an hour on interacting with offshore teams in various time zones.

Challenges i faced as team lead in current role.
Methodology used. Interacting with higher ups, executives, clients.

Office looked like Facebook, really nice location out of Toronto but same paygrade.

I did very well on the interview, recruiter that found me said I'll have an answer by tomorrow.
Wish me luck nerds.

If I put up a landing page that is well designed, with six or so web site projects in my protfolio of basic ecommerce/landing page stuff, can I realistically expect to find any freelance or in-house work?

How long can I get away without my backend being completely asynchronous? I can understand wanting IO to be async, but every small operation?

>>61700582
You would probably need more portfolio pieces with more desirable skills for freelance.

You could make Shitty WordPress sites and get paid shit but what's the fun in that

>>61700348
the extra abstraction layer allows you to decouple db calls from rest of the application
so it will suck if you use rdbms specific functions and those change over a version for some reason or if you have to change rdbms alltogether at some point
otherwise you probably shouldn't give a fuck, except that writing sql requests might take more lines than calling an orm function

>>61700471
gud lucc nerd

>>61700627
Depending on what you're using, you can go quite far without making everything asynchronous. Plenty of major websites rely on older languages/frameworks that don't support that kind of thing and do just fine. You can pretty much always just run multiple app instances. If you're talking about node, it's pretty well optimized for async stuff so you generally want to take advantage of it where you can.

How strong is your programming background?

If you really want a job, read the entire documentation for typescript, then angular.

Like every page they have available, write out the examples and modify.

Make some app that reads Reddit or some shit and you could go get in as junior.

You'll save yourself time if you spend time to seriously familiarize yourself with Javascript.

>>61689877
Yes. Schemas are essentially table 'formats' in mongodb (and, consequently, mongoose). So:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');

var userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
    name:String,
    password:String,
    salt:String,
    age:Number,
    activities:[{
        name:String,
        time:Date,
        type:Number
    }]
}, { collection: 'Players' });

mongoose.model('Players', userSchema);

would create a schema for a table 'Players' with five fields.

>>61689602
Assuming you include the closing parens as >>61691260 says, what exactly are you trying to do here? Unless I'm mistaken, I believe $set requires an object, containing the field to update as well as the new contents. So for a document:

{
    name:'bob',
    age:'54',
    location:'moon'
}

in a collection "spaceDudes", you'd do 'collection.update({name:"bob"}, {$set{location:'uranus'}},callbackFn())';
Normally you don't actually need to use $set, and instead can just do 'collection.update({name:"bob"}, {location:'uranus'},callbackFn())'.
Finally, is either plupdate or update some sort of function run on the document (i.e., an instance method or something)? If so, update won't work here; you'll need to use findOne() and save() instead

Hi PHP gurus! My php json_encode is outputting extra values.
I have no idea where those extra values came from. I googled and
found like 3 answers saying to use

mysql_fetch_assoc

. I tried it but still no change.
Does anyone ever encountered this?
Pic related is the phpmyadmin table

Here is the echo of json_decode:
As you can see there are the extra values:

{
  "id": "24",
  "0": "24",
  "first_name": "changed1",
  "1": "changed1",
  "last_name": "Rambo",
  "2": "Rambo",
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "3": "[email protected]"
}

The expected result should be:

{
  "id": "24",
  "first_name": "changed1",
  "last_name": "Rambo",
  "email": "[email protected]",
 }

Here is the php code:

okay guys learning the basics of JS now.

When should I move onto learning a JS framework? No job wants a jr dev who doesn't have a JS framework under their belt.. I just know basic HTML/CSS and learning JS like I said so I have a long way to go but just curious.

>>61702912
when you are able to use javascript for everything you need

>>61701888
It's mostly shit like this

 
var movieQueue = [];

//ex. <tr> <td class='movie-id hidden'>tt0133093</td> <td class='movie-title'>The Matrix</td> <td class='movie-score'>4.25</td> <td> <input name='queuedMovie' type='checkbox'> </td> </tr>
$('input[name=queuedMovie]:checked').each(function(i,row){
    movieQueue.push({
        "id": $(row).parent().parent().find('.movie-id').html(),
        "title": $(row).parent().parent().find('.movie-title').html(),
        "rating": parseFloat($(row).parent().parent().find('.movie-score').html())
    });
});

The extend of my learning is like some 2 hour HTML/Jquery tutorial from 2012

>>61702912
jQuery is a good start.

It's pretty shit desu, but a lot of jobs still use it. Both I've had in the last 6 months have used it.

Caved and bought a shitty old thinkpad for linux. Windows + python = utter bullshit

>>61694398
This I really hate the syntax it's really ugly

>>61689454
It's THE PHP framework to use.

Should I just learn Typescript if I don't know Javascript? Sounds like it's better in every conceivable way.

>>61702912
Eh, honestly, and to be completely unhelpful... when you feel ready. It's good that you recognize you've got a road ahead of you, but there's unfortunately no magic 'test'. What you DON'T wanna do is jump into a framework before you really understand the essential principles of JS - prototypal inheritance, async JS, object vs function oriented programming, probly some concepts i'm forgetting.
I'm actually gonna disagree with >>61703110 a bit. I think as long as you have a good FOUNDATION in JS, learning a certain framework and seeing how they do certain things might help you understand the language better.

>>61702848

how can i copy the player and realm names and inject them onto a url that I will use to make an http request to a 3rd party api?

>>61705598
There's a Python scraping library but you'd be better off checking the html source to see if there's any class/id tagging of the column fields that could be used.

The best solution is to acquire the table data as json in the first place, possibly from the same API you want to interrogate.

>>61705627
I'm not sure what you're saying.

>>61705761
Then you're probably not at the stage where you can write code to do web functions.

>>61703565
>why do you use json here
People here have mentioned before that its better for php to spit out json then just fetch it via ajax/axios for display/manipulating the data. They said that it separates the backed from frontend code. Actually I tried that approach earlier and it works nice, just those goddamn "extra values" are fucking annoying

>>61705915
okay how about you try to reiterate in a clearer manner instead of resorting to immature and insulting remarks.

>>61706028
It's as clear as it gets. If you don't understand that then you aren't ready to be coding web apps. Learn some programming first.

You mean you roped in some other gullible person to go your learning for you. If you can't read the most basic concepts from the millions of tutorials, but instead need another human to waste their time explaining it to you, you are not ready for the programming industry. The people who did this at uni dropped out after the first year. The best advice anyone can give you, is learn how to google, learn how to read, learn how you learn best (without resorting to wasting other people's time.)

Self-righteous is almost the opposite of bitter, that's what makes it so insufferable for others, it's so comfy being self-righteous that it looks like those people are avoiding karma.

>>61706028
He isn't being insulting; If you don't know what checking the HTML source, or class/id means, you cannot seriously expect to... what was it? 'inject them onto a url'?

Note that all the input values must be between 0 and 1, so you'll need to normalise your data beforehand. This is so I can scale the Canvas element to any size and preserve the graph. Also note that the Canvas axis is an inverted Cartesian plane (both x and y are flipped), so I am reversing all the values (1 - open) etc.

I'm trying to learn web dev through the MDN tutorials and I'm finding out that I can't make any sense of most of the stuff that's written on there. What should I do?

>>61699894
Without ever intending to, I learned jQuery. It's not hard, it makes sense, and it's a dependency for other things, so it's handy to have on your toolbelt.
>>61699841
But yeah, there's other stuff.
Angular = Ruby on Rails for the browser
React = the DirectX API for the browser. ALso the V in MVC
Underscore = functional shit for the browser
Backbone = The M (and C ?) in MVC
Also see Vue, although I forget what for.
Also see Bootstrap, for widgets, it's quite popular
There's things like sockets.io and express.js which handle limited scope (_almost_ UNIXy although there ain't norhting UNIXy about the web)

>>61712549
I'm selfish, your certificate probably is not.
Before renting online space, compare prices, and look for (valid) reviews about the hosting provider on tech forums.
The emails will be created for you, they don't come automatically with a domain registration.

>>61712549
Get your domain independent from your hosting. Never get them in one bundle.
With shared hosting providers you usually have offers like
>X subdomains,
>Y databases
>Z mailboxes
etc.

With a VPS you have complete freedom but also have to do everything yourself.
GSuite from google is a good option for emails on your own custom domain, if you don't mind the botnet.

I do it all the time, especially when doing feeds. eg:

<span class="container-inner">

</span>
</a>

There is no such thing as true randomness.

You can simulate true randomness just like the real world does by increasing variables to a ridiculous degree, getting random numbers through external scripts, turn the webcam on with item recognition to count room objects, total keypresses while on your site. Then add it all together and get the average.

High stress, not great wages

>>61715264
It's cool.

rails or node?

>>61708749
Exactly. That's basically what a server does in general. When you go to "mysite.com/somePage", you aren't actually navigating to the "/somePage" folder on that server's "drive". Instead, you're saying to the server, "gimme whatever response is appropriate to /somePage".
This allows you to do stuff with the router that DOESN'T involve specifically going to a resource. For example, a (badly-named) route might be "mySite.com/goToProfileButRecordMeFirst", where the router first records your visit, and THEN sends you to the profile (and presumably does neither if your login fails).
In the case of express/node (and presumably most routers), remember that the ORDER of routes matters. So in the case of:

// the * means "all routes")
router.get('*',function(req,res,next){
 //do some stuff
 res.send('hi!');
});
router.get('/someSpecificRoute',function(req,res,next){
 //do some stuff
 res.send('A specific route!');
});

then "/someSpecificRoute" will never trigger, because there's already a route registered for every route (including the /someSpecificRoute route). As such, you'd never see the message "A specific route!".

extremely low entry barrier which means dumbasses think they can waltz in and make 300k to get people to sign up for wordpress
working on a team is hell due to a bunch of unnecessary steps added in so fags don't go ruining an entire company with one action
being a sole front end or back end dev is agony, put in some effort to understand 'the other side' so communication is faster
clients can be a fucking pain in the ass and the reason why you have 20+ projects basically finished but still no response

overall ok but fun

reading this thread is painful

so many people who have no business touching code getting mad at anon's who answer their question in realistic ways.

if you dont know what http is, what a restful api is, what a mean stack is, the difference between mongodb and mysql you need to read a fucking book lmao

i lurk to see banter and some interesting projects, but all i've been seeing lately is children(or worse, adults) who don't know anything about programming trying to make web apps.

if you really want to learn webdev, learn vanilla js for a few months, learn node, and then move onto some frameworks

>>61715958
How badly do you want this? Because it's not gonna be easy to roll your own. It looks like you'll need to write a plugin that connects to the scanner, since the browser can't do it on its own. And since two of the examples you provided seem to only support Windows, it looks like you'd have to have a version for each OS you want to support.

What exactly do you need scanning capabilities for?

>Use curl to download the html and grab what you need with regex.
Not that that's necessarily wrong but regexing html is usually insane.

>>61716494
Yeah, I'm with you. That ain't going to be easy.

What would be way easier is if you could interact with the user's phone and have them scan/photograph the image. That would work much better if it's good enough for anon's purposes.

>>61716494
Actually I just need it for Windows. But those options in this momment are a bit expensive for me.

Basicly I want this:
>user scanning documents inside the website
>system saves scanned file path in some column in table "Documents"
>user clicks in some button for file visualization
>system looks for path and open the file

Maybe in future I'll change saving file paths to saving the file in DB.

>>61716579
I saw some people taking this approach in Chrome OS until someone made a chrome extension. But for me it would be very time consuming for scanning 15 or more pages wich is a regular case in application my context.

Anyone with a webdev related job that travels a lot for work? I kind of would like a job that requires me to travel around the world a lot but I feel like webdevs just sit behind their desk all day.

>>61716775
>Maybe in future I'll change saving file paths to saving the file in DB.
Why?

>>61716775
Does this absolutely need to be done with a website? Because it might be a lot easier to do with a native app, especially considering it's only on Windows. There are probably libraries available that would be easier to integrate into a native app than a web app.

>>61716579
This is actually easier than you might think; I looked into the options for a website I considered making recently.

You can get camera input and render it to an HTML5 canvas (and snapshot it) really easily on devices that support it.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaDevices/getUserMedia
https://davidwalsh.name/browser-camera

And on devices that don't, there's an option on HTML form inputs to launch the camera directly from the site, and directly upload a photo taken.
https://mobilehtml5.org/ts/?id=23

Combined with websockets, you could effectively connect a user's desktop session to their mobile device session and make it work pretty well.

>>61716852
You're going to be sitting behind a desk regardless lol

>>61716997
I don't know actually.
It's like a team project decision but I didn't measure the pros and cons with them. Sounds like a huge weight for DB tho.

>>61717036
Sadly yes. But this is a possibility too.
Also thank you for these informations.

Currently learning RoR to be employable, I'm sick of being an underpaid front-end dev, what should I do to be the most employable RoR dev? Learn TDD? Specialize myself into some specific gems? Jump on the ReactJS meme?

>>61717594
Yeah right, people said that years ago but I've never seen more offers for RoR devs where I live, I know companies that literally recruits PHP devs and train them to RoR because it's just so hard to find.

RoR projects are here to stay, you have to be pretty delusional to think otherwise.

>>61716852
You could find a remote position. That way you can travel where ever you want, as long as you get the hours done.

am I retarded for using explicit return statements in my nodejs code? i see code like >>61715495
a lot, but I _always_ use return because I feel like its much safer. am i doing it wrong?

>>61718080
for example

router.get('/products', function(req, res, next) {
  return Product.find({}, function(err, products) {
    return res.render('index', {
      products: products
    });
  });
});

I have an idea for part of my portfolio website. Basically, a list like pic related, but each item is an accordion that expands to reveal the challenge prompt and solution code. How do I make this a reality? I'm comfortable with C++, starting to get into algorithms/data structures now. I know a bit of HTML/CSS from "making websites" when I was younger, but almost no JS, and no clue about frameworks/libraries/etc. I found this https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_accordion.asp which I would be fine modifying, but it'd be cool if it could be more elegant than just all the code copy-pasted into the HTML. I'm not asking for a solution, just hints on what I should search for to learn more.

>>61718099
If I understand currently, res. will automatically fulfill the return, so you don't have to explicitly return it. Of course, the Product.find would have to be returned though.

Do you suppose someone with working knowledge of general programming could go from 0 experience in web dev to creating a small but working and professional-looking website in the space of three weeks?

Yes.

>>61718878
just stack two divs, one for 'question' + questionNum, one for 'answer' + questionNum. Set answer display to none.

pass the questionNum to an onclick. Check if the question div is hidden, if it is, show it and hide answer. Otherwise do the opposite.

A noter que elseif et else if sont traités de la même façon seulement quand des accolades sont utilisées, comme dans l'exemple ci-dessus. Quand vous utilisez ":" pour définir votre condition if/elseif, vous ne devez pas séparer else if en deux mots, sans quoi PHP soulèvera une erreur d'interprétation.

>>61717158
>Sounds like a huge weight for DB tho
DBs are easily optimised for large binary data though and can usually store it compressed as well.

I know fuckall about coding or frameworks, here's a grocery list-type thing I'm working on. The actual list is stored on a mysql database and the view in pic related interacts with it through API calls

Whenever a create/update/delete call succeeds, I pull the entire grocery list from the database and paste that into the table markup. This feels really dumb and inefficient, what would be a better way of updating the view every time the database is altered?

>>61720054

WAKE ME UP

I'm trying to learn PHP and Wordpress, so I'm making a theme. And I want to do something special in certain categories. For which I used a simple array:

if (in_category( array ('large-something', 'medium-something', 'small-something')))

But instead of mentioning every category individually, is it possible to select all categories that contains the word 'something'?

>>61725291
Never mind, i found a solution:

$theurl = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$urlcontainssomething = strpos($theurl, 'something');

if ($urlcontainssomething!==false) {
    //url contains 'something'
}

>>61725120
How is that a problem? Just use the final syntax and some autoprefixer to solve your issues.

>>61725443
But now I'm wondering if this is vulnerable to injections.

>>61725520
>some autoprefixer
the question is, which one?

>>61726247
I'm using the gem of https://github.com/postcss/autoprefixer and I never had any issues with my flex rules. Tested most of the browsers with Browserstack.
