How to create linux terminal like tutorialspoint? - node.js

TutorialsPoint Java Compiler
In tutorialspoint, they have created linux terminal using term.js.
I have integrated same github library in my project, it is working fine but I am trying to understand the flow of tutorialspoint.
My assumption:
In tutroialspoint each time they are creating new user_id under root user(cg) and running terminal(nodejs server) using that user_id so every time when you reload page there will be a different user_id (run whoami in terminal), so another user can't operate other users files.
I am running nodejs server using forever.js under root user, I want to implement same type of functionality. What is correct way to do this? and if there is another way please elaborate.

I think they are creating a new user each time you visit the page and providing you a subshell of that user. It can be easily achieve by using Shell Programming techniques. Creating a new user each time thing is probably nothing more than a security measure.
So I will briefly explain the concept in 5 steps:
1 - Create a new user:
shell_exec('useradd --expiredate 2016-09-10 [username]');
http://www.computerhope.com/unix/useradd.htm
2 - Login to this newly created user account:
shell_exec('su [username]');
3 - Get user input to the PHP script using AJAX(dynamically).
4 - Execute user's command and send the output to user:
<?php
$output = shell_exec("[user's command]");
echo "<pre>$output</pre>";
?>
5 - Repeat from 3.

Drupal8 module development: hook_node_access not called

for my current site I have a content type that stores a user in an entity reference field. I want to allow the user referenced in this field to edit the data of that node. In drupal7 I would do that with a node_access hook - which I am not getting to work in drupal8.
Here is a demo code of my hook - for testing purposes I want to forbid everything. However it is never called, and no - I am not logged in as user1. Also reseted cache, uninstalled and installed the module again and rebuilt the permissions - nothing seems to make this hook work.
function mymodule_node_access(\Drupal\node\NodeInterface $node, $op, \Drupal\Core\Session\AccountInterface $account) {
$access = new AccessResultForbidden();
return $access;
}
My question is why is this hook never called - and if there is now with drupal 8 a better way to do so?
Any help will be appreciated.
Best regards,
Rambazamba
This hook is never called for user 1, since he bypasses every access control.
Try testing anonymously or as another role.
Try the following command. The tool 'drupal console' is required.
drupal node:access:rebuild

fabric -- cant run commands after user is switched

I have been recently introduced to fabric and trying to approach the following:
access remote host
su root
perform a command, for example change password for multiple users
done!
Please note that I cant use sudo, nor connect directly to the remote host using root. The commands I need to perform can only be performed if I explicitly change user to root.
I was able to approach the main concept of getting to the remote host and play with some commands, using fabric, but the problem im having is that once I switch to root "su root" I cant perform the rest of the commands unless I exit.
example of what im trying to approach:
def mytask():
with settings(user="root"):
run('whoami')
run('echo "TEST using root user"')
run('echo "ITS WORKING!!!"')
or something like this
def mytask():
run ('su root')
run ('passwd testUser')
In both cases once I enter the root password nothing would get executed, I would get the remote command line back, unless I exit back to the original user. I have seen few suggestions about using "fexpect" for prompts but not sure if that would make a difference.
I'm developing on a Linux environment.
You have to use fexpect and fexpect run command
from ilogue import fexpect
prompt = ['Password', 'mypassword'] # ('prompt', 'answer') Case sensitive
def test():
with fexpect.expecting(prompt):
fexpect.local("su -")

jenkins: setting root url via Groovy API

I'm trying to update Jenkins' root URL via the Groovy API, so I can script the deployment of a Jenkins master without manual input (aside: why is a tool as popular with the build/devops/automation community as Jenkins so resistant to automation?)
Based on this documentation, I believe I should be able to update the URL using the following script in the Script Console.
import jenkins.model.JenkinsLocationConfiguration
jlc = new jenkins.model.JenkinsLocationConfiguration()
jlc.setUrl("http://jenkins.my-org.com:8080/")
println(jlc.getUrl())
Briefly, this instantiates a JenkinsLocationConfiguration object; calls the setter setUrl with the desired value, http://jenkins.my-org.com:8080/; and prints out the new URL to confirm that it has changed.
The println statement prints what I expect it to, but following this, the value visible through the web interface at "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> "Jenkins URL" has not updated as I expected.
I'm concerned that the value hasn't been update properly by Jenkins, which might lead to problems when communicating with external APIs.
Is this a valid way to fix the Jenkins root URL? If not, what is? Otherwise, why isn't the change being reflected in the config page?
You are creating a new JenkinsLocationConfiguration object, and updating the new one, not the existing one being used
use
jlc = JenkinsLocationConfiguration.get()
// ...
jlc.save()
to get the one from the global jenkins configuration, update it and save the config descriptor back.

Run mongodb script once to insert initial data

I have a chicken and egg problem with my node server in which you need to have a user with a certain role that has certain permissions to be able to log in and start creating more users, roles, etc.
I would like to initialize the database such that I create an initial ADMIN role and initial admin user that has that role.
I.E. started with a script and ran into problems:
use mydb
db.roles.insert({
name: "ADMIN_ROLE",
description: "Administrative role",
permissions: ['ALL']
});
db.users.insert({
username: "admin",
password: "password",
role: ??? (get ADMIN_ROLE _id from above)
});
Basically I ran into a couple of problems:
1. not really sure if I can script like this.
2. How to get ADMIN_ROLE id to store in new admin user
Another idea:
Write a quick node app that connects to mongodb and inserts the proper stuff. Anyone done this before.
And yet another:
Does anything like ruby rake exist for node/mongo. I.E. the initial seed may not be the only data I need to 'manually' mess with. I.E. I might need to patch the database at some point in time. Would be nice to create patch #1 as the initial seed, and then be able to write future patches if necessary and be able to. I.E. anything like rake migrate?
Any other ideas on how to seed a mongo database?
Shoot just found this:
https://github.com/visionmedia/node-migrate
and
https://npmjs.org/package/mongo-migrate
Exactly what I was looking for.

Update deployment via linux script in weblogic

What is the script to update deployment ( from GUI, we can do this update by unlock & save changes ) in linux. Is it possible to do this ? If not what is script to redeploy ?
As Kevin pointed out, WLST is the way to go. You should probably craft a script (named wlDeploy.py, for instance), with content like follows (import clauses were omitted for the sake of simplicity):
current_app_name = '[your current deployed app name]'
new_app_name = '[your new app name]'
target_name = '[WL managed server name (or AdminServer)]'
connect([username],[pwd],'t3://[admin server hostname/IP address]:[PORT]')
stopApplication(current_app_name)
undeploy(current_app_name, timeout=60000);
war_path = '[path to war file]'
deploy(appName=new_app_name, path=war_path, targets=target_name);
And call it via something like:
./wlst.sh wlDeploy.py
Of course you can add parameters to your script, and a lot of logic which is relevant to your deployment. This is entirely up to you. The example above, though, should help you getting started.
In WebLogic you can use wlst to perform administrative tasks like managing deployments. If you google weblogic wlst, you will receive tons of information. wlst runs on the python language.
Assuming you are using weblogic 10 you can also "Record" your actions. This will save the actions into a python script which you can "replay" (execute) later.
