OSS Good Governance Handbook-Professional Open Source Software Management

The OSS Good Governance Handbook is intended as guide for enterprises that fosters proper use of open source software as well as safeguarding businesses from technical, legal and IP threats.

The handbook is the brain child of the newly formed Open Source Program Office (OSPO) alliance, a coalition of leading European open source non-profit organizations including OW2, Eclipse Foundation, OpenForum Europe, and Foundation for Public Code, with the mission to grow awareness for open source software and promote its structured and professional management by companies and administrations.

There are two perspectives on managing an open source software project; one is that of manager/maintainer/contributor and the other that of the enterprise relying on it. I've covered the first aspect in "The Open Source Guides To Managing Open Source Software Projects" which looks at another handbook, a set of guides by Github detailing the ins and outs of launching, managing, maintaining and contributing to open source projects.

Headless Chrome and the Puppeteer Library for Scraping and Testing the Web

With the advent of Single Page Applications, scraping pages for information as well as running automated user interaction tests has become much harder due to its highly dynamic nature. The solution? Headless Chrome and the Puppeteer library. While there's always been Selenium, PhantomJS and others, and despite headless Chrome and Puppeteer arriving late to the party, they make for valuable additions to the team of web testing automation tools, which allow developers to simulate interaction of real users with a web site or application. Headless Chrome is able to run without Puppeteer, as it can be programmatically controlled through the Chrome DevTools Protocol , typically invoked by attaching to a remotely running Chrome instance: chrome --headless --disable-gpu --remote-debugging-port=9222 Subsequently loading the protocol's sideckick module 'chrome-remote-interface' which provides a simple abstraction of commands and notifications using

Book Review : How To Create Pragmatic, Lightweight Languages

At last, a guide that makes creating a language with its associated baggage of lexers, parsers and compilers, accessible to mere mortals, rather to a group of a few hardcore eclectics as it stood until now. The first thing that catches the eye, is the subtitle: The unix philosophy applied to language design, for GPLs and DSLs" What is meant by "unix philosophy" ?. It's taking simple, high quality components and combining them together in smart ways to obtain a complex result; the exact approach the book adopts. I'm getting ahead here, but a first sample of this philosophy becomes apparent at the beginnings of Chapter 5 where the Parser treats and calls the Lexer like unix's pipes as in lexer|parser. Until the end of the book, this pipeline is going to become larger, like a chain, due to the amount of components that end up interacting together. The book opens by putting things into perspective in Chapter 1: Motivation: why do you want
