CPANTester journey - Smoking basis for windows box (en/fr)

Thanks to the CPANtesters Wiki , It was quite straightforward to setup my Windows testing box.

Typing 'cpan install CPAN::Reporter' was all needed, installing the dependencies along the way.

As I planned to do some smoking tests, I also had to install CPAN::Reporter::Smoker :
'cpan install CPAN::Reporter::Smoker'

Some modules don't play well with (automatic) testing, so configuring distroprefs is probably a good idea :
After entering "C:\Documents and settings\UserName\Mes Documents\"
you only have to create .cpan/prefs to put there the YAML files downloaded from
 DAGOLDEN's site



Then typing 'o conf init test_report'  inside the cpan shell and answering the few configuration questions should  complete the process.
  
Now every module installed (or just  tested) will produce a report that you can send (or will be automatically sent  according to your setting) and entering a smoke test is just a matter of  typing :



perl -MCPAN::Reporter::Smoker -e start 




*It will be that simple if you don't have to  struggle with email configuration, as I have to...

Grace au Wiki des CPANtesters, ca a été assez facile de configurer ma machine de 
test Windows.
Taper  'cpan install CPAN::Reporter'   a été suffisant, installant toute les dépendances au passage.



Comme je prévoyais de faire des smoking tests, j'ai aussi du installer CPAN::Reporter::Smoker :
'cpan install CPAN::Reporter::Smoker'



Certains modules ne se comportent pas très bien lors de tests (automatisés), donc configurer les distroprefs est probablement une bonne idée :
Après s'être positionné dans "C:\Documents and settings\UserName\Mes Documents\" nous n'avons plus qu'a créer .cpan/prefs pour y télécharger les fichiers YAML obtenus du  Site de DAGOLDEN




Ensuite taper 'o conf init test_report'  dans les shell cpan et répondre aux quelques questions de configuration devrait terminer le processus.
  
Dorénavant tous les modules installés (ou juste testé) produiront un rapport de test que vous pourrez envoyer (ou qui sera envoyé automatiquement selon votre configuration) et lancer un smoke test se lance facilement en tapant :



perl -MCPAN::Reporter::Smoker -e start 




*Ca sera aussi simple que ça si vous n'avez pas à vous battre, comme moi, avec la configuration du mail.

Change your Gogs admin password





















I might have missed something, but I haven't found any simple way to change my admin password (with emailing not active) in gogs.   It was quite easy to find the hash location, but as I didn't know how it was generated...   Luckily I eventually found the parameters used, so here it is for you if you need them embedded in a script :   var pbkdf2 = require('pbkdf2-sha256');  var key = 'YourChosenPasword';  var salt = 'AnyRandomValue';   var hash = pbkdf2(key, salt, 10000, 50); console.log(hash.toString('hex'));   All I had to do was then to update the table user , setting passwd  to the generated value (and updating salt  with the value used in the script).

JavaScript for Perl lovers.





















Article originally published on  Hello.js   This time I feel really qualified to write this article because believe me, I love Perl ! I think in Perl, I dream in Perl, and I really appreciate the whole Perl community. I’ve been in love with this language for more than a decade but I decided that I needed a change.   I’ve already said in a previous article why I chose to learn JavaScript this year (instead of getting involved in Perl 6 for example) but let me tell you why you might also enjoy learning JavaScript if you love Perl. Perl developers form a very unified community that all too often, resist outside influences, but learning a second language like JavaScript can really be a very enlightening experience.    It’s expressive   JavaScript, like Perl, is an expressive language. You get your work done with just a few lines of code. When talking about programming languages, I really like the tent analogy:   In a tent, you have functional things (tent fabrics) whose purpo...

What is the average salary for Perl programmers in 2020?





















   Original article published  my new blog   blog.assad.fr     If I have no definitive answer on this, the  Business Insider  has some insights:   HackerRank polled 116000 developers about their salaries and got interesting results:   Perl is associated with an average global salary of $84,025.50 (54.2% higher than the global average salary)  Scala is associated with an average global salary of $77,159.60  Go is associated with an average global salary of $72,691.30  Python is associated with an average global salary of $56,670.90  JavaScript is associated with an average global salary of $55,690    Without more information about the polled panel it's hard to state this results as “Truth” but they seems to confirm personal beliefs:   The salary is more linked to the scarsity of resources than to the trendyness of the associated technology.  Perl resources are less and less available.    You know what ? It's good to be a Perl programmer :-)
