Posted on 29 July, 2008 by chmouel

If you want to bookmark a  quick mozilla search from your house to another postcode you can use this URI :

http://journeyplanner.tfl.gov.uk/user/XSLT_TRIP_REQUEST2?language=en&sessionID=0&type_destination=locator&name_destination=DESTINATION_POSTCODE&type_origin=locator&name_origin=ORIGIN_POSTCODE&place_origin=London&place_destination=London

just change the DESTINATION and ORIGIN_POSTCODE to %s if you like or make it as static bookmark.

Eurodisney with Noah

Posted on 5 May, 2008 by chmouel

Went with noah to see that Euro Disney thing and he seems to really enjoyed it. I am not a big fan of Eurodisney personally but the kid was so enjoying it. Last time i was there was like 11 years ago, things got way more expensive now  as well.

FFAP and Ruby in Emacs

Posted on 4 May, 2008 by chmouel

If you want to use FFAP (find-file-at-point) in ruby-mode you can add this to your .emacs

(defvar ruby-program-name "ruby")
(defun ruby-module-path(module)
    (shell-command-to-string
     (concat
      ruby-program-name " -e "
      "\"ret='()';$LOAD_PATH.each{|p| "
      "x=p+'/'+ARGV[0].gsub('.rb', '')+'.rb';"
      "ret=File.expand_path(x)"
      "if(File.exist?(x))};printf ret\" "
      module)))
 
(eval-after-load "ffap"
  '(push '(ruby-mode . ruby-module-path) ffap-alist))

When you do ffap (i bind it to C-x f) near a require ‘PP’ for example it will find it in your ruby path.

Ruby XMLRPC over a Self Certified SSL with a warning

Posted on 21 March, 2008 by chmouel

If you use the XMLRPC client in ruby over a self certified SSL you have this warning :

warning: peer certificate won’t be verified in this SSL session

You can get override that warning cleanly (i have seen some people who just comment the message in the standard library) like that :

require 'xmlrpc/client'
 
require 'net/https'
require 'openssl'
require 'pp'
 
module SELF_SSL
  class Net_HTTP < Net::HTTP
    def initialize(*args)
      super
      @ssl_context = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext.new
      @ssl_context.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
    end
  end
 
  class XMLRPC_Client < XMLRPC::Client
    def initialize(*args)
      super
      @http = SELF_SSL::Net_HTTP.new( @host, @port,
                                      @proxy_host,@proxy_port )
      @http.use_ssl = @use_ssl if @use_ssl
      @http.read_timeout = @timeout
      @http.open_timeout = @timeout
    end
 
  end
 
end
 
if __FILE__ == $0
  f = SELF_SSL::XMLRPC_Client.new2("https://url")
  puts f.call("method", 'arg')
end
