To schedule backup mongodb to AWS S3 could be done extremely easy in any docker pipeline, here is an example using DroneCI docker pipeline and cronjob feature. The complete code example could be found here: https://github.com/Asing1001/mongodb-s3-backup.

  1. Create .drone.jsonnet file using docker pipeline
  2. Use mongodump in step1 to create archive

  3. Upload the archive by s3 plugin in step2

    local backupLocation = 'mongo-archive.gz';

    [{
      kind: 'pipeline',
      name: 'default',
      steps: [
        {
          name: 'mongodump',
          image: 'mongo:3.6.5',
          environment: {
            DB_URI: {
              from_secret: 'db_uri'
            },
          },
          commands: [
            'mongodump --gzip --uri="$DB_URI" --archive=' + backupLocation,
          ],
        },
        {
          name: 'upload',
          image: 'plugins/s3',
          settings: {
            bucket: 'mongo-backup',
            access_key: {
              from_secret: 'aws_access_key_id',
            },
            secret_key: {
              from_secret: 'aws_secret_access_key',
            },
            source: backupLocation,
            target: '/',
          },
        },
      ],
      trigger: {
        event: ['cron', 'push'],
        branch: 'master'
      },
    }]

  4. Activate the project in DroneCI and fill up variables aws_access_key_id, aws_secret_access_key, db_uri

  5. Setup Cron jobs in Drone project’s settings
    drone-mongo

  6. Push the repository and verify the job :)

For Android

Only type="search" is required on <input>

For IOS

It is required to wrap <input type="search"> inside a <form action>, note that the attribute action is must-have.

Google Tag Manager(GTM) is a back office for quickly managing HTML on webpages, basically, it enables the maintainer to do Everything on their website without changing the code base. There are three major elements in GTM which are Tag, Variable, and Trigger.

Tag

A Tag will be triggered by the Trigger you set and passing both the system defined variables and the user-defined variables to your Tag, then you could take the action such as sending it to GA or manipulate DOM on your pages.

Variable

Other than System defined variables, you could create your own by Javascript:
Select User-Defined Variables, then select the type Custom Javascript

    if (!element || !elementClass) return
    var selector = '.' + elementClass.split(' ').join('.')
    var list = document.querySelectorAll(selector)
    var order = [].indexOf.call(list, element) + 1
    return order
  } catch (e) {
    if (window.dataLayer.filter(function (obj) {
      return obj.errorMsg === e.message;
    }).length == 0) {
      window.dataLayer.push({

學徒模式一書的架構是以一篇篇的主題連接起完整的學徒Roadmap，每篇中以情境 問題 解決方案 行動來引領學徒如我邁向軟體工藝之路，本次再讀此書深覺應身體力行，決定把一些書中提及的的行動實行於部落格內

正視你的無知

明天我將顯得更加愚昧，並習慣他。

大意

本篇訴說儘管已經熟悉某些技能並讓他人倚重，但總是會遇到自身所缺的知識，此時勇於放下自尊顯露無知，說不知道，問身邊的專家為什麼才是最快的學習途徑，特別是當你問問題的對象認為你知道問題的答案！

行動 - 列出五件工作中你不理解的事放在大家看的到的地方並持續更新這份清單

  1. WebAssembly
  2. Web Worker
  3. How Vue core works?
  4. How to write a Compiler?
  5. How to build a LIFF Application?
