Advanced journey for passport and typescript

Release 0.4 - Progressing

To understand well for oauth2 and passport, I studied and googled it. It basically provides authentication service using well known sites like google, facebook and github.

Passportjs provides a number of strategies for OAuth2. Here is the official site. Since passport uses strategy pattern, most of them are very similar and just change some of urls and which information will be used in the strategy. Of course, I spent a lot of time to understand how it worked and actually there were many things I needed to study such as session, cookie and so on.

Also, Typescript is very helpful. I cannot added any property as it is ok on Javascript. When I added githubId in user, it automatically gave me an error and I needed to figure out where I need to add it. It is not really difficult since I studied OOP a lot but I am pretty sure I will be a fan of it.

After I spent some time, I added them successfully and made a PR. However, the CI show me test error although on my local, I passed all of test cases.

Hopefully I will figure out what is the problem.

Concluding...

The experience on open source world is really great. They are teaching not only the technology skills but also how to communicate and willing to share their valuable experience. I am really happy to become a self-learner.

Getting more difficult?

Release 0.2.4 Now I am at almost the end of release 0.2 and I chose the telescope as the final contribution. To be honest, this is huge, well organized and great project and it is first time to take a look. Unlike my previous assignment during the previous terms, there are tons of what I have never seen. First, docker compose is great and the document for contribution is very clear. Of course, I had no idea when read it first, but every time as my professor mentioned, there was a great guy, helper?, helping me a lot to set up the project. Although I had no idea about Elastic-search and Redis-cache server, I was happy to take a time to look though the codes and to understand. Again, trying to understand an issue is always hard for me and sometimes I am really not happy when somebody does not understand my question. This happened again. The reason why I attached the picture is that I am still confused about the whole process of this project especially about why frontend didn't get ...

Finally, release my first open source.

Starting... This lab is to release my product to install easily. Instead of cloning or downloading and setting it up manually, it provides a lot of convenience for users to install it. I chose NPM since I used nodejs. NPM is a great site to help develpers to release their git repository in the site. Progressing... First, I signed up on npmjs.com and logged in the site on the console to release my repository. I had to set up a lot of things like 'npm init', modifying readme and package.json to be ready. Second, I tried to release my repository by the command, 'npm publish --access public'. Unfortunately, the name, http-parser, was already taken, so I needed to change my name. I chose my name as http-checker and tried to release it again. At this time, I got 403, forbidden error. I spent a lot of time to figure out but it was actually due to not verified account. Once I got the verified email account, finally, I got the release version of my repository. Here is my...

Elastic search and more

Release 0.3.1 Now it is time to learn what is Elastic search since the chosen issue is about adding more fields for our model in telescope. This is very new for me so I was very scared when I started to work for this but now I think I am more confident. First, Elastic search is such a great supportive database especially for index search. The good thing is that it is not only the index search for whole value but, partial keyword as well. Of course, it may be wrong since I also just started to study it. Anyway, It was very careful when I read codes one line by one. Following the official document , I tried to add some fields, but it made some test failed so I needed to fix them. The below content is from the official document: Mapping edit Mapping is the process of defining how a document, and the fields it contains, are stored and indexed. For instance, use mappings to define: which string fields should be treated as full text fields. which fields contain numbers, dat...
