There is also a section about different Linux distributions. http://rivancic.com/posts/spring-scheduling/ Fri, 12 Oct 2018 03:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/spring-scheduling/ Different approaches of task scheduling in Spring framework. It can be as easy as annotating methods. The default configuration can introduce some issues in the case we have multiple methods annotated and some of them contain long running computations. This can be tackled in multiple ways. But we have the most flexibility and controll with the usage of the Spring TaskSchedulers. http://rivancic.com/posts/angular/ Wed, 10 Oct 2018 03:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/angular/ First baby steps in Angular with TypeScript.

With a lot of web services emerging, the need to have clear API documentation for adopting these services became clear. API documentation is the information that is required to successfully consume and integrate with an API. Concise and clear documentation — which allows your API consumers to adopt it into their application quickly — is no longer optional for organizations that want to drive adoption of their APIs. http://rivancic.com/posts/jenkins/ Tue, 29 Aug 2017 03:10:13 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/jenkins/ The leading open source automation server, Jenkins provides hundreds of plugins to support building, deploying and automating any project. Isolated environment variables I needed to set environment specific variables for the job. They can not be saved in the pipeline script itself which is in git repository, because it is executed from multiple different Jenkins servers. Every one of the them needs to set different variables. Also the global environmental variables of the Jenkins itself are not an option, because variables that I need are specific for just one job inside server. http://rivancic.com/posts/wordpress/ Sat, 19 Aug 2017 03:10:13 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/wordpress/ Duplicate wordpress page There is no native support for this functionality.

It is dead simple and faster compared with setting up video content.

Just save static data in JSON file. Image also includes <strong>faker</strong> and <strong>lodash</strong> modules so instead of static JSON initialization file you can script a ton of data.</p> <p>Docker image: <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/rivancic/json-server-faker/">json-server-faker</a></p> http://rivancic.com/posts/html-textview/ Fri, 11 Mar 2016 03:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/html-textview/ In most of the times, for displaying few lines of plain old text in Android application the TextView widget will be sufficient.

Saving HTML code in Android app for reuse. http://rivancic.com/posts/sonarqube/ Fri, 25 Dec 2015 23:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/sonarqube/ Most of the time we are under time pressure to deliver a product. As a consequence bad coding habits strike back. It happen also if the programmer is not yet enough experienced. Peer review can solve this problem. Still it is not easy if the product is growing fast and nobody has a full sight on whole project or if you are alone on some part of it. Solution I was searching for was tool that automatically gives a descriptive overview of code quality. http://rivancic.com/posts/proguard/ Mon, 28 Sep 2015 03:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/proguard/ ProGuard - Magic dieting pill for your app As stated in previous blog post Android Multidex tool has some limitations. I found another solution for the same problem: ProGuard can detect unused classes, methods, fields and attributes as end result the bytecode is optimized. Then it renames remaining elements what makes the reverse ingeneering a bit tougher. This is far better solution for overcoming reference count. Configure the Gradle settings for your app to run ProGuard with minifyEnabled set to true. http://rivancic.com/posts/multidex/ Sat, 26 Sep 2015 03:00:00 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/multidex/ Running Scala in Android app Because Scala language has powerful features for collection processing, Optionals support, pattern matching, type inference, I wanted to try out how mature is support with Android development&hellip; More about that maybe next time.To mention I am using the Android Studio with Gradle.

The first one is that compiling time is now 3 times longer. http://rivancic.com/posts/hugo/ Thu, 20 Aug 2015 03:10:13 +0200 http://rivancic.com/posts/hugo/ What is the best way to create a blog. The tool for building it, should be simple as possible and use latest technology. The content will not change too often and it won&rsquo;t be customizable for special user groups. Like in old days I can use static pages. From personal experiences I would like to avoid to use bloated Joomla or WordPress installation. Also there is no need to use additional server resources (RAM, CPU) even the database becomes obsolete which adds to responsiveness. http://rivancic.com/about/renato-ivancic/ Sun, 19 Jul 2015 03:10:13 +0200 http://rivancic.com/about/renato-ivancic/ http://rivancic.com/renato-ivancic/ Sun, 19 Jul 2015 03:10:13 +0200 http://rivancic.com/renato-ivancic/
