  • Buildpacks and Paketo with Ram Iyengar
    4 projects | dev.to | 15 Sep 2021
    Ram: Yeah. I'm glad you asked that question because, like I mentioned, there are like two peaks to the Buildpacks adoption sort of curve. In the first version or first avatar of Buildpacks, they weren't very agile in terms of the platform, the end platform that they would deploy to. So Heroku started off with this. I think they open-sourced a lot of the internals. And then Cloud Foundry, which was Pivotal back in the day, had their own version of Buildpacks with their own version of the life cycle and everything. And so, it was very distinct in terms of what the target platform was for the Buildpacks to go out and make a deployment. Between the first and the second sort of peaks, Docker, or rather the popularity of containers, really took off. So Docker happened. I am just using Docker and containers very interchangeably, so; please forgive me for that.

    Cloud Foundry is an open-source tool for writing code in any language, with any framework, on any Kubernetes cluster. Provides a highly secure environment in which you can bypass complex configuration and routine operational tasks. Integrates with your environment and tools, including CI/CD and IDEs. Security patches are implemented quickly in response to vulnerabilities, so it stays secure for sensitive, mission-critical application development.

  • From zero to hero: using SQL databases in Node.js made easy
    3 projects | dev.to | 19 Mar 2024
    Node.js, MySQL and PostgreSQL servers installed on your machine
  • I Deployed My Own Cute Lil’ Private Internet (a.k.a. VPC)
    8 projects | dev.to | 18 Mar 2024
    Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).
  • How to dump and restore a Postgres DB with new table ownership
    2 projects | dev.to | 14 Mar 2024
    I've used MySQL for years. But recently, I found myself working PostgreSQL and simple things like dumping and restoring a database are different enough that I decided to document the process. It's straightforward enough once I knew how.
  • Test Driving a Rails API - Part One
    11 projects | dev.to | 11 Mar 2024
    A running Rails application needs a database to connect to. You may already have your database of choice installed, but if not, I recommend PostgreSQL, or Postgres for short. On a Mac, probably the easiest way to install it is with Posrgres.app. Another option, the one I prefer, is to use Homebrew. With Homebrew installed, this command will install PostgreSQL version 16 along with libpq:

  • Preventing SQL injection attacks in Node.js
    6 projects | dev.to | 22 Feb 2024
    To better understand how SQL injection works, let's quickly create a vulnerable app using Node.js, Express, and a PostgreSQL database. The application takes user input from a form, constructs a SQL query, and executes it against the database to fetch some data.

    In my usual NodeJS tech stack, which includes GraphQL, NestJS, SQL (predominantly PostgreSQL with MikroORM), I encountered these limitations. To overcome them, I've developed a new stack utilizing Rust, which still offers some ease of development:
