Kohana Formatting Conventions for Aptana and Titanium Studio

Tue, December 27, 2011 No Comments by Clayton McIlrath

Ever since our dev team decided to adopt Kohana’s formatting standards and conventions, we’ve found our code to be a lot more agile, and easy to work on. Since we already use the same IDE Aptana/Titanium on Windows, Mac and Ubuntu, we decided to create a format preference that can be saved and shared with each other as well as other Aptana users. This format setting **MAY** work in Eclipse as well, but I haven’t had time to test it. If we missed anything or if you have any comments or contributions to extend, please do so!

To import, download and extract the zip file. Then inside of Prefernces, select the Studio dropdown on the left, choose Formatter and then on the right select the import profile option.

Replicate or Migrate Ubuntu Packages with Apt-Get

Wed, June 15, 2011 3 Comments by Clayton McIlrath

If you’ve ever needed to upgrade Ubuntu versions, setup a new server or do any other type of migration, this is the easiest and most satisfying way to do it.. using Apt-Get!

First on our “old” server lets use apt-get to dump a list of installed packages to a packages.txt file:

dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > packages.txt

Then on the new server, lets update Apt-Get and install from our file:

apt-get update
dpkg --set-selections < packages.txt
apt-get -u dselect-upgrade

That’s it!
