MongoDB and unofficial LINE API

Today I am not in a good status.

I try to auto-generated a detail webpage for each stickers. I put some images and some customized information to sell the stickers. What most important is that, I add Disqus at the bottom of webpage.

Disqus is so easy to use, I most admit that it should be the model of web app service. The result looks great and now I have one Pinterest-like sticker showcase page with each click will link to detailed page with comment feature. I transfer from plain text to database now. And with search feature, I provide one additional feature which official site do not provided.

I install mongodb and mongo-express. I wrote a script to put all information into it. The first impression is good. And because I am not quite satisified by CouchDB, I should transfer to mongodb totally ( if there exist no accident tomorrow).

Next thing to do is add customized tag to each...

Start new website for LINE Sticker 3rd-Party seller

I start to work with my relatives who host online business provider. Recently I start to start to work with them as Software Engineer. And I focus in LINE Sticker business currently.

Previously, whenever LINE publish new stickers, our teammate will generate snapshot from mobile or from LINE official site.

Last week I start to use Ruby+Nokogiri+Sinatra to automatically generate one customized Pinterest-like webpage from LINE official site. By using Nokogiri, I can retrieve all sticker public information in few seconds. And I add some webpage attributes like CSS and some javascript plugins to make the site more human-friendly.

I use CSS to generate Pinterest-like webpage and use simple javascript and search box for dynamic filtering. But the problem is that, user need to load all sticker before browsing. And half second may lose one possible customer, I think I need to improve it.

I...

Finish “Ruby under a microscope”

It’s really exciting to me to finish reading this book. It gave many new knowledge to me, in each chapter. I really appreciate Pat’s great effort in writing this book. The description is really helpful and clear. I really enjoy reading this book. Highly recommended.

I already think about next move. I think I will try to finish all the English translated chapter of Ruby Hacking Guide . And then I will try to select some chapter in original Japanese website. Although the compiler engine is changed since Ruby 1.9, there should exist some jewel in it. I will try to dig some out of it.

One reason is that I have some interest in Garbage Collection. And I notice that implementer of Ruby Garbage Collection is writing a book for it. ガベージコレクションのアルゴリズムと実裝 . I have interest in it, but I have no confidence to read all Japanese technical book, also in new field. But I want to try it. So I will try...

StartPoint

Recently I create this blog.

The start point is that I found the discussion thread in Hackernews.

What source code is worth studying?

I like this thread. Because I have desire to learn more about coding.

One way is to code more, which I will do in daily life.

But it’s also helpful to learn from others. I can read book, blog, or more directly, code.

But there’s tons of code and projects there. But I have limited time. And this thread looks good to me.

My first read is @marijnjh works for JS1k. It’s interesting to me. It gives me the idea how to use function array just for shorter function name storage. I don’t know this usage before!!

The second one is one coding game - Untrusted.

Just into level 14. It’s also interesting to me. I think game will encourage me to solve the problem. And learn code by gaming is really exciting experience to me. And I love the difficulty of this game...
