Comment on Splitting Rails DOM ids with RegEx Look Aheads by Joshua Pinter

Joshua Pinter — Thu, 28 Jul 2022 18:51:26 +0000

Super handy! Here’s a little snippet to take it further and convert it to ActiveRecord objects:

“`
dom_ids = params[ :dom_ids ].split( “,” ) # “facility_2035637462,diagram_184″ => [ "facility_2035637462", "diagram_184" ]

objects = dom_ids.collect do |dom_id|
klass, id = dom_id.split( /_(?!.*_)/ ) # Parse out the class and the id from the dom_id String.
klass.classify.constantize.find( id )
end
“`

Comment on How to set the timezone on Ubuntu Server by Leroy Tennison

Be careful when using timedatectl, it will let you set timezones with set-timezone that aren’t in the list-timezone output (for example: EST). The problem is that doing so may be wrong since you probably want EDT (daylight savings). This caused problems on “daylight savings weekend) when the system had EST as a timezone but the same time as Central Daylight Savings. I used ‘dpkg-reconfigure tzdata’ to fix the problem – it seems to be “smarter” than timedatectl.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Still works well for Melbourne or any other cities on 16.04.

In 16.04 you use:

sudo timedatectl set-timezone Australia/Melbourne

Very helpful thanks. Didn’t know that dpkg-reconfigure command – sometimes it’s nice just to launch a GUI to make certain changes. And particularly liked the fact you recommend restarting cron
