Fixing "git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey)"

jastuccio — Sun, 18 Feb 2024 17:41:04 +0000

I run into this error when I haven't used GitHub in a while. There is a simple fix to reconnect your SSH key. The syntax is a bit different than most online answers because I use FISH(Friendly Interactive shell).

in BASH the command should be eval $(ssh-agent -s)
in FISH type eval (ssh-agent -c)

A slight difference but figuring this out almost drove me nuts the first time.

Next type ssh-add path/to/your/ssh-key

Now the error should be resolved.

If you need to generate SSH keys this might help

bug fix: VS Code was deleting my curly braces { } in a Sveltekit file

jastuccio — Fri, 21 Oct 2022 23:30:43 +0000

It's Friday night so of course I'll get a strange bug to work on 🤪

VS Code was auto formatting an {#if} block and removing the { } I was quick to pile blame on Prettier or maybe ESLint. It turns out this was an Emmet issue. You can see "Emmet Abreviaton" in the image. Hitting return was triggering Emmet to delete the { } "mustache brackets". I had to adjust some of the VS Code settings.

It seems I was able to resolve it after changing some setting in VS code based on info I found on Github.

NPM commands

jastuccio — Mon, 28 Jun 2021 15:04:31 +0000

Just some NPM commands I had to look up.

What NPM packages are installed?

List your global npm packages: npm list -g
- dropping the -g flag will list packages in the current directory

Removing NPM packages

Remove a package: npm r <name>
- aliases for r: remove, rm, un, unlink, uninstall (see npm uninstall docs)
Remove extraneous packages and packages that are not listed on the parent package's dependencies list: npm prune <name> (see npm prune docs)
Uninstall all npm packages (stack overflow): rm -rf node_modules && npm cache clean && npm install

JavaScript data types

jastuccio — Wed, 16 Jun 2021 15:31:10 +0000

JS is dynamically typed. You don't have to declare a type. types are determined automatically.

Values stored in variables have types, not the variables themselves.

console.log(typeof "word") logs the type (in this case string)

typeof null returns object. This is a legacy error.

creating a string without using quotes will give you an error. let string = this creates an error logs "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier"

Objects

... coming soon

Primitives

There are 7 primitive data types in JavaScript

numbers - floating point. Decimals and integers
strings - characters
boolean - true or false
undefined - empty values
- let name; declaring a variable without assigning a value will have undefined as it's value
null - the intentional absence of any object value.
- falsy.
symbol(ES2015) - guaranteed to be unique. Often used to add unique property keys to an object
BigInt(ES2020) - for larger integers than number can handle

CSS variable fallback

jastuccio — Fri, 28 May 2021 23:33:17 +0000

example: <p> tags will be --text-color variable or fall back to black


:root {
  --text-color: #212121;
}


p {
  color: var(--text-color, black);
}

Salesforce B2C Commerce storefront

jastuccio — Wed, 12 May 2021 18:14:00 +0000

Salesforce has so much terminology it can be a bit overwhelming in the beginning. I am starting a series of short posts to help me learn the definitions.

Model–View–Controller (MVC) Architecture

divides an application into three parts.

Model - the business logic, data, and rules underlying the application.
- Traditionally, models store the data that’s used to populate the view.
- In B2C Commerce, data is represented by APIs, which provide helper classes instead of storing data.
View - What the shopper sees on the storefront. It’s the landing page, the product details page, QuickView, the cart page, etc
Controller handles entry fields, button clicks, etc and turns them into actions or data that is consumed by the model or view.

Salesforce has archived the Aura open-source UI framework

They were replaced with Lightning Web Components around February 2019. Aura components and LWC can coexist and interoperate on the same page.

Aura components

are the self-contained and reusable units of an app. They represent a reusable section of the UI, and can range in granularity from a single line of text to an entire app.

Editing your fish history

jastuccio — Sun, 11 Apr 2021 17:16:20 +0000

Using your terminal history can save time or help you to remember commands you have not used in a long time. If you make typos in fish they still go into your history. There are a couple of ways to remove commands from your fish history.

Get a list and delete some or all of the commands that match the string:

history delete --contains "search string"

example:

Open your history file. You can delete the command and time stamp for any commands you want to remove.

code ~/.local/share/fish/fish_history

wipe everything clean:

history clear
