Raw direct IO file_get_contents and file_put_contents provide the ability to read/write from/to a file to/from a PHP string in a single call. file_put_contents can also be used with the FILE_APPEND bitmask flag to append to, instead of truncate and overwrite, the file. It can be used along with LO...

In Python 2, <> is a synonym for !=; likewise, `foo` is a synonym for repr(foo). Python 2.x2.7 >>> 1 <> 2 True >>> 1 <> 1 False >>> foo = 'hello world' >>> repr(foo) "'hello world'" >>> `foo` "'hello world'"...

This example starts Notepad, waits for it to be closed, then gets its exit code. #include <Windows.h> int main() { STARTUPINFOW si = { 0 }; si.cb = sizeof(si); PROCESS_INFORMATION pi = { 0 }; // Create the child process BOOL success = CreateProcessW( L"C:...

Pass dynamic inventory to ansible-playbook: ansible-playbook -i inventory/dyn.py -l targethost my_playbook.yml python inventory/dyn.py should print out something like this: { "_meta": { "hostvars": { "10.1.0.10": { "ansible_user": ...

Pass data in native Python form, for example list, dict, str, None, bool, etc. IceCream.objects.create(metadata={ 'date': '1/1/2016', 'ordered by': 'Jon Skeet', 'buyer': { 'favorite flavor': 'vanilla', 'known for': ['his rep on SO', 'writing a book'] }, ...

IceCream.objects.filter(metadata__ordered_by='Guido Van Rossum')

Get all ice cream cones that were ordered by people liking chocolate: IceCream.objects.filter(metadata__buyer__favorite_flavor='chocolate') See the note in the "Remarks" section about chaining queries.

Python 3.x3.0 Python 3 added a new keyword called nonlocal. The nonlocal keyword adds a scope override to the inner scope. You can read all about it in PEP 3104. This is best illustrated with a couple of code examples. One of the most common examples is to create function that can increment: def c...

Using subprocess.Popen give more fine-grained control over launched processes than subprocess.call. Launching a subprocess process = subprocess.Popen([r'C:\path\to\app.exe', 'arg1', '--flag', 'arg']) The signature for Popen is very similar to the call function; however, Popen will return immedi...

This assumes you have a twilio account and have purchased/reserved a phone number... If you are using bundler add the following line to your Gemfile to include twilio-ruby in your project: gem 'twilio-ruby' otherwise enter gem install twilio-ruby on the command line. You might need sudo if you'...

The vast majority of Python memory management is handled with reference counting. Every time an object is referenced (e.g. assigned to a variable), its reference count is automatically increased. When it is dereferenced (e.g. variable goes out of scope), its reference count is automatically decreas...

The only time the garbage collector is needed is if you have a reference cycle. The simples example of a reference cycle is one in which A refers to B and B refers to A, while nothing else refers to either A or B. Neither A or B are accessible from anywhere in the program, so they can safely be dest...

Removing a variable name from the scope using del v, or removing an object from a collection using del v[item] or del[i:j], or removing an attribute using del v.name, or any other way of removing references to an object, does not trigger any destructor calls or any memory being freed in and of itsel...
