**Ok so I've been taking some courses on codecademy on coding and programming and wanted to start a project to test out some of what I've learned. I want to build a Instant Messenger Chat app for phones and after much research I've decided to use AppGyver to build my mobile app.
On the forum I asked what to use and someone informed me that Composer is pretty easy because of the drag option and other stuff but that started frustrating me, there are no good tutorials that show me what everything does on there, esp for what I wanted my app to look like (plus I don't have an Apple smartphone or anything like that so that scanner thing was unnecessary) so since I am familiar with HTML from codecademy I decided to try my luck with that, there are more tuts on that (video of course) and I'm having issues. I went through the steps on the website and everytime I got to the step that asks for me to post this in Node.js
-- npm install steroids -g --
I get a message that keeps saying the same thing--that Python is installed just fine but the error is command 'git' not found. What did I do wrong?
Also I can't seem to locate a repository for Git GUI, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do there either. Could I get some help as to what my problem is? Thank You in advance.**
I assume you've used the install wizard on the site? It has comprehensive instructions for installing git, which is required for the npm install to work. If you are using Windows, remember to check the "use Git from Windows Command Prompt" checkbox when running the Git installer, after which restart your terminal window and continue with the guide. For further assistance, you should turn to the AppGyver forums.

I want to use Cppcheck's XML report for SonarQube.
https://github.com/SonarOpenCommunity/sonar-cxx/wiki/Code-checkers
But on Cppcheck's official site, I did not find any help with the installation on a Linux server.
Has somebody any working solution for this?
Edit:
I like how the sonarqube tag disappeared, thank you #G. And again, for the constant "support". How convenient just to remove it, instead of helping, or letting someone to help who had these issues as well. Unrelated to the question, yes.
Then guess what: My boss wanted to demo this tool, but certainly told him now not to buy the commercial edition. Everything is unrelated with everything. Good marketing for 2017.
As far as I know, there are no Cppcheck packages built for Linux. However, you may easily clone the Cppcheck repository from GitHub (https://github.com/danmar/cppcheck) and build it yourself. It has no extra dependencies and therefore is easy to build:
cd cppcheck-master
make
Also, I'm not sure about integrating Cppcheck with SonarQube, but there's a detailed article about SonarQube configuration, probably you may find something useful there: https://www.viva64.com/en/m/0037/
I am trying to learn and build my own version of mozilla with customizations. But I have no idea where to start and how to proceed. Can someone enlighten me in the following aspects:
1.Where to clone the latest open source code for mozilla
2.Where to learn the browser architecture and file structure(For linux/Ubuntu) So that I can customize the codes and add my own custom
addons.
3.How to debug and build the browser for Linux.
I heard its purely HTML,CSS and javascript. I have a low level expertise in all of this but no idea where to put together all of these. Please enlighten me with any resources. Basically I need a kickstart. Googling didn't gives me any such basic tutorials. I hope someone here would have tried these things before :) Any help is much appreciated.
There's a very handy guide on how to build Mozilla Firefox on MDN. Here's an outline of the steps:
Install the build prerequisite for Linux as described here - wget -q https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py -O bootstrap.py && python bootstrap.py
Clone the repository locally using mercurial - hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central
Change the current working directory to mozilla-central and then issue the ./mach build command. This will produce a vanilla version of Firefox, unbranded (aka developer build).
Once building is complete, you can run your copy using ./mach build or package it using ./mach package.
In order to customize your build, you need to both change the code and the building options. The latter can be done by creating a .mozconfig file in the mozilla-central directory and adding the desired build options there.
Where to learn the browser architecture and file structure(For
linux/Ubuntu) So that I can customize the codes and add my own custom
addons.
To understand a bit more about the structure of the Firefox source code, you can have a look at this nice overview. Basically, each top directory represents a component of the browser (e.g. dom, browser, toolkit, ...). Depending on what you need, you have to change the code in the related directory. When you're lost and trying to find what to change, DXR can come to the rescue: it's the official Mozilla code search engine.
You mentioned addons: I'm not sure what's your objective, but if you just need to develop an addon, then you don't really need to build Firefox from scratch. There's a lot of documentation about how to create addons, if needed.
How to debug and build the browser for Linux.
The first part of this answers explains how to build. In order to debug, once you've built Firefox, simply run it with the command ./mach run --debugger. This will allow you to debug the C++ core of Firefox. However, for most of the front end code (which lives in browser/*), that's not needed: you can simply run Firefox and use the Browser Toolbox.
I've new to app development and I thought of trying Phonegap. I've already downloaded Node.js and git.client. I have 4 questions:
1) So, I'm installing the PhoneGap and as soon as I type the first line of code from : into Terminal on my Mac, I keep getting asked a password. What password are they asking for and how do I type it in? Or do I just move on without a password?
2)Once I'm done with that, I move on to docs.phonegap.com and head to the Command Line Interface guide. I'm running the code on terminal and can't seem to run the platforms for android, blackberry10 and amazon fireos as said in:
Does this mean I need to install other things in order to get the different platforms running?
3) Moving on and working on the ios platform, I'm suppose to test the app on a emulator or a device, just like this:
All I did was change the "android" to "ios" in the code, but when I do that, it seems I need to download something from GitHub or Nodejs. What do I install?
4) When I'm at GitHub, a lot of the downloads are clones. Does this mean it is illegal?
As you can see, so stuck! Would really appreciate your help :)
You will need to sign up for their developer program and then enter that password
1.) It asking your PC login password, because you are installing a new SW.
2.) Yes, you must install many other SW for diferrent platforms. Cordova is only FW, not IDE...
Android need istall Eclipse, into it ADT plugin and android developer tools, and so on with the other platforms. Things you are need to know are in in docs for every platform.
How you can ask question No. 3 before you don't have answer on the first and the second question?
I need your help. Because I've no idea what I'm doing.
There is this nice plugin vim-instant-markdown I recently stumbled onto. Basically, it's a live preview in a browser, running in the background, while you're writing your text in markdown plugin, and I like the concept.
So, I've tried to get it to work on Windows,
installed Ruby (rubyinstaller-1.9.3-p125)
installed Ruby-DevKit (DevKit-tdm-32-4.5.2-20111229-1559-sfx)
followed instructions on https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Development-Kit
gem install redcarpet pygments.rb
installed node (node-v0.6.10)
npm -g install instant-markdown-d
So far so good,
I open a markdown file in Vim, and it opens (pause button works here) a command line window with my text inside. Browser not seen anywhere.
In the plugin there is an /dev/null "thing" (I'm not an unix guy, more than I needed to be, which wasn't very much - just an ordinary user for most part). /dev doesn't exist on Windows.
To put long story short, my question is - can this be made to work on Windows, the way it should work, or is it a waste of effort even to try it to get it to work?
I'm welcoming all constructive ideas and suggestions.
glad you found this useful enough to want a Windows port! I think it definitely can be done, you just might need more dependencies and hackage.
First of all, understand that there's a server component that is used apart from the actual .vim file to make this work, which is started and stopped on demand. You will definitely need to look at its code, which can be found here.
The server uses open on OSX and xdg-open on Linux to open a browser window, neither of which exist on Windows. On Windows, you can use start (more here). Try to find a way to make the browser window open in the background, and not steal focus, otherwise it will be very annoying.
Also, curl is used to send commands to the server, and curl doesn't exist for Windows. Indeed, I don't think anything similar exists. There is a curl Windows port, though IMO it kinda sucks to add such a thing as a requirement for the plugin...
It seems that you've taken this on at least partially as a learning experience, so I hope you can make it work and send back a pull request! (Of course feel free to keep asking questions if you're stuck) But in the (hopefully unlikely) event that you lose interest or give up, create an issue in github requesting Windows compatibility, and I'll see if I have time to implement it. Also, keep in mind that some questions/comments will be better suited to the project's issues area than here.
Good luck!
Just riding on the BDD wave for the past 2 days.. I was intrigued with Aslak Hellesoy's InfoQ video on RSpec. Specifically with the language agnostic integration testing framework claims.. SO I was looking at testing a .Net app with Cucumber which seems to be the latest avatar of the BDD story runner.
Followed the examples on cukes.info and the wiki pages to do this. Installed IronRuby too..
However the end-result was different in that I get a huge stacktrace.
Posted a comment on the IronRuby Issue Tracking page for the bug
If anyone has worked around this or knows whats up... please leave a response. Thanks.
I spent yesterday working with IronRuby and Cucmber. I don't have a solution to your codeplex ticket, but here's what worked for me.
I used IronRuby 0.9 in c:\ironruby and with ir built from DLR change set 27223 (I have those two on my machine).
I added c:\ironruby\bin to my path, so cucumber.bat can find ir.exe.
I used igem install rspec followed by igem install cucumber
I had to steal rubygem files from my ruby install and put them in my source files to bring rubygems up from 1.2 to > 1.3. igem update --system didn't want to work for me.
I then forced an install of hoe (which had been failing) igem install hoe
At that point, I wrote a cucumber feature, had the step definitions look at White.Core.dll to exercise my app under test, and ran c:\ironruby\lib\ironruby\gems\1.8\bin\cucumber --no-color features with success on XP SP3. The --no-color flag is important, or you'll get terminal codes all over the screen.
I avoid the shared gems model if at all possible. I got confused when I tried that, so I went with what seemed easiest. It's worked for me since 0.6.
JFYI - Got this working after a bit of thrashing about with cryptic errors. Although this is supposed to be fixed in the next release as per the IronRuby developers, Posting my steps to get this working as of today with the 0.9 release
