Serverless plugin author's cheat sheet

This cheat sheet provides a detailed overview of the exposed lifecycle events and available commands (and entrypoints) of the Serverless framework, that can be hooked by plugins (internal and external ones). The document is structured by the commands invoked by the user.

Lifecycle events are shown as the globally available outer events (all providers) and sub lifecycle events that are provider specific in the called order. Currently only the AWS provider is shown. If you have information about the other provider,

Debugging ES6 in VS Code

My current editor of choice for all things related to Javascript and Node is VS Code, which I highly recommend. The other day I needed to hunt down a bug in one of my tests written in ES6, which at time of writing is not fully supported in Node. Shortly after, I found myself down the rabbit hole of debugging in VS Code and realized this isn't as straightforward as I thought initially. This short post summarizes the steps I took to make debugging ES6 in VS Code frictionless.

What doesn't work

My first approach was a launch configuration in launch.json mimicking tape -r babel-register ./path/to/testfile.js with babel configured to create inline sourcemaps in my package.json. The debugging started but breakpoints and stepping through the code in VS Code were a complete mess. Apparently, ad-hoc transpilation via babel-require-hook and inline sourcemaps do not work in VS Code. The same result for attaching (instead of launch) to `babel-node

PostgreSQL: Fuzzy search with `levenshtein()`

Ever wanted to implement a “Did you mean?” feature in your search results? Google is said to have greatly increased its user engagement with it. Here is how to implement it simply in Postgres (v9.1+):

Install the extension:

CREATE EXTENSION fuzzystrmatch;

Common Options

-#, --progress-bar Make curl display a simple progress bar instead of the more informational standard meter.

-b, --cookie <name=data> Supply cookie with request. If no =, then specifies the cookie file to use (see -c).

-c, --cookie-jar <file name> File to save response cookies to.
