How to Use AI for Code Documentation - A DocuWriter Tutorial
We uploaded one of Googleās sample Python scripts to Docuwriter to test some of the code documentation types, starting with General Documentation:
-
What I've Coded This Week (Week 1āWWCode '100 Days of Code' Challenge)
Google has documentation and 'getting started' resources for the GMail API, but the sample script implemented in their 'Python Quickstart' guide is using syntax that is documented separately in the Google API Python Client docs and GMail API docs.

How to speed up API call requests?
I'd recommend using one of the clients vs trying to assemble the requests yourself. The Python client is a good place to start.

Trying Google Nest API with Postman and Python
The main functionality is handled by the Thermostat class. On creation it creates a service object using the Google Python API Client. That's used later to help build and execute API requests. At app exit the service object is closed.

How to generate valid OAuth2 Client Credentials
At first, to simplify the procedure, I started with the credentials of an open source email client. I then used the tool mutt_oauth2.py (which is a streamlined version of google-api-python-client).

Access Gmail API
Based on my understanding, this is now only possible via through OAUTH2. After several failed attempts, it seems I found the official supported library, that is google-api-python-client.

I just refuse to host on GCP anymore! (my anti google rant)
Documentation. I've encountered several non documented requirements on various services that are just frustrating for no reason, until you find the correct answer on StackOverflow or GitHub. This can be a known issue that is unfixed for years, even though it's only a change in documentation. Again, Google's support teams keep claiming to file "internal bug reports" that go nowhere for years. Google is so busy always developing the "next big thing" that they forget to invest in their own existing tools that developers count on. See this example Issue from 2015 that was still gaining comments in 2021!

Bug in std:shared_mutex on Windows
Former AWS here.
My literal job for the last part of my time at AWS was "help triage bugs in the AWS SDK." This is by far the best repro I've ever seen for such an in-depth event.
Most of the tickets you get in open ticket trackers are incomplete [ https://github.com/boto/boto3/issues/4011 ] nonsensical [ https://github.com/boto/boto3/issues/4018 ] or weird [ https://github.com/boto/boto3/issues/358 ].

AWS Boto3: Clients vs Resources - DynamoDB
Recently, my colleague brought up the difficulty of using the AWS SDK for Python (Boto3) while working with DynamoDB, especially the cumbersome mapping of AttributeValue objects on the Table operations. One of the easiest ways to get around this difficulty is to switch from the clients interface to the resources interface.

Beginning Python: Project Management With PDM
A majority of software in the modern world is built upon various third party packages. These packages help offload work that would otherwise be rather tedious. This includes interacting with cloud APIs, developing scientific applications, or even creating web applications. As you gain experience in python you'll be using more and more of these packages developed by others to power your own code. In this example I've decided to expand our math functionality with NumPy. pdm add is what's used to add dependencies like this to our project:

Creating RSS feeds for language/module specific AWS SDK updates
The updates could be parsed from the github repo's CHANGELOG files (ex: javascript, java, python). I'm picturing an RSS feed generated for a specific language and module (ex: python s3, javascript s3, java sqs)

Teaching boto3 to store floats and datetime objects in DynamoDB
This can be quite annoying because it makes you wonder why the high-level API isn't able to deal with these common data types. Part of the reason for this is most likely that floats in Python can be counter-intuitive, so Decimal is a better data type if you want numbers to behave as non-computer-scientists expect it. To learn more about these complexities, check out this discussion on GitHub about implementing float support in boto3 and the Python documentation on the subject. Additionally, DynamoDB has no native DateTime data type, so there is no straightforward mapping.

Interacting with Amazon S3 using AWS Data Wrangler (awswrangler) SDK for Pandas: A Comprehensive Guide
AWS Data Wrangler is a Python library that simplifies the process of interacting with various AWS services, built on top of some useful data tools and open-source projects such as Pandas, Apache Arrow and Boto3. It offers streamlined functions to connect to, retrieve, transform, and load data from AWS services, with a strong focus on Amazon S3.

Migrate 5 TB S3 bucket from one AWS account to another
Alternatively, you could create a Python script using either Boto3 or her asynchronous sister, aioBoto3 that will spin through the contents of the origin bucket and move it over to the destination.

Growing Outside of Work: My Journey with the Cloud Resume Challenge
Once my site was stood up, I needed to build out the user count API. Through the console, I set up a DynamoDB table and created a user count item. Getting my lambda to interface with AWS resources was a breeze with the Boto3 SDK. You can see my Python code that increments the user count whenever someone visits the site here. The key is the usage of the update_item method that comes from Boto3.

Logging code mess
If you want to get a feel for what kind of logging and how much logging is done in projects, boto3 is a very widely used SDK created by Amazon: https://github.com/boto/boto3
