Mostly just for me to remember stuff

I might use a command once, then not again for years. Hopefully I can jog my memory quickly here.

Python

I wanted a json utc datetime for a MQTT payload. Found the arrow module that is much like moment.js for javascript.

import arrow
print (arrow.get(arrow.utcnow()).for_json()

results in: "2015-08-27T15:03:07.427351+00:00" I'd like to trim it further and replace the +00:00 with Z. ??? and less precision on the seconds.

vim

comment a block

What's a quick way to comment/uncomment lines in Vim? (Stack overflow)

ctl v (at start of block)
down arrow (to end of block)
shift I, #
  or
: s/^/# <- more likely
esc

global search and replace

Fedora fc.22

I opened up node.js on port 3000 with this command.

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=3000/tcp
# be sure to reload
 firewall-cmd --reload

# tail a log with colored warnings
#> tail -f /var/log/maillog|egrep --ignore-case  --line-buffered --color=auto 'reject|ERROR|WARN|$'

7-zip

I wanted to create a .zip file for my FDDSE project from the command line. Perhaps in a batch file.

7z a -tzip FDDSE.zip FDDSE
