I recently made a script at work to act as a service when a pattern is found (or not) on a website. You can also run pre and post script if you want.
It’s a Windows binary that you can find on my GitHub or on my Git.
I did it in Perl. As described in the last post as I needed to have the interpreter embedded in the binary. I’m so bad to find good application name that I called it url_service_action.
In the past, I already made an article on how to make exe from a Perl script on Windows. I was using Strawberry or Activesync but have a preference for Strawberry as it’s totally free :-).
This time, I tried to reproduce the tips but encountered several issues. The first one was that error :
The locale codeset (cp1252) isn't one that perl can decode, stopped at Encode/Locale.pm line 94. It could simply be resolved by addressing ‘-x’ parameter to the ‘pp’ command line.
Some of you already told me how complicated the setup of my software configurations could be. Depending on which configuration you’re talking about, it may be more or less complicated to install in the good folders, launching the good commands etc…
In addition, sometimes I need to set up a quick desktop environment with my preferences and deploy all I need may take a while. That’s why I’ve written some scripts (in Python and shell script) to help on deploying all my configuration and all the packages I wish.
I saw a little bit late that MediaWiki 1.21 was out. After a quick migration I discovered errors with my plugins because of deprecated and removed functions in this new version.
I’ve updated them to recover the compatibility on MediaWiki with the latest version. You can find updated version here :

Like in most of programming languages, even if it’s not a compiled one, there is always a solution to make binaries from your sources. To make is quick and easy I’ve wrote a little documentation on it. It’s in french sorry, but you should be able to understand even if you don’t speak french (or use the translate plugin in the left bar).
Documentation is here.
It´s been a while that I was waiting for a tool that tells me if my Debian server is requesting a reboot or not. Of course GUI tools exists (like Ubuntu update-manager), but on a server machine, where there is no X server installed (thankfuly), this kind of CLI tools can be quickly interesting.
That´s why I wrote a tool called deb_reboot that gives the reboot requierement information in parsing postinstall scripts of installed packages.
Toi lecteur, si comme moi tu es un looser du design et que les sites web que tu créer ressemble a ceux du début de années 2000, alors bootstrap est fait pour toi !
Concrètement qu’est-ce que c’est ? Simplement une suite de CSS/JavaScripts/Images pour habiller ton site et en plus responsiveness. Et a mettre en place, c’est d’une facilité déconcertante.
Mais qui est l’âme charitable a avoir développé et publie ceci me diras tu ?
