Object-Oriented JavaScript — Metaprogramming and Proxies

JavaScript is partly an object-oriented language.

To learn JavaScript, we got to learn the object-oriented parts of JavaScript.

In this article, we’ll look at JavaScript metaprogramming with proxies.

Metaprogramming and Proxies

Metaprogramming is a programming method where a program is aware of its structure and manipulating itself.

There’re multiple ways to do metaprogramming.

One is introspection. This is where we have read-only access to the internals of a program.

Self-modification is making structural changes to the program.

Intercession is where we change language semantics.

In JavaScript, we can do this with proxies.

They let us control how objects are accessed and set.

Proxy

We can use proxies to determine the behavior of an object.

The object being controlled is called the target.

We can define custom behaviors for basic operations on an object like property lookup, function call, and assignment.

A proxy needs 2 parameters,

One is the handler, which is an object with methods to let us change the behavior of object operations.

Target is the target that we want to change the operations to.

For instance, we can create a proxy to control an object by writing:

const handler = {
  get(target, name) {
    return name in target ? target[name] : 1;
  }
}
const proxy = new Proxy({}, handler);
proxy.a = 100;
console.log(proxy.a);
console.log(proxy.b);

We created a proxy with handler with the handler object.

The get method lets us control how properties are retrieved.

target is the object that we’re controlling.

The name is the property name we want to access.

In the get method, we check if the name proxy exists.

If it does we return the target value, otherwise we return 1.

Then we create a proxy with the Proxy constructor.

A first argument is an empty object.

handler is our handler for controlling the operations.

proxy.a is defined, so its value is returned.

How to Find Ulimit For user on Linux

How can I find the correct ulimit values for a user account or process on Linux systems?

For proper operation, we must ensure that the correct ulimit values set after installing various software. The Linux system provides means of restricting the number of resources that can be used. Limits set for each Linux user account. However, system limits are applied separately to each process that is running for that user too. For example, if certain thresholds are too low, the system might not be able to server web pages using Nginx/Apache or PHP/Python app. System resource limits viewed or set with the NA command. Let us see how to use the ulimit that provides control over the resources available to the shell and processes.

How to configure AWS SES with Postfix MTA

How do I configure Amazon SES With Postfix mail server to send email under a CentOS/RHEL/Fedora/Ubuntu/Debian Linux server?

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a hosted email service for you to send and receive email using your email addresses and domains. Typically SES used for sending bulk email or routing emails without hosting MTA. We can use Perl/Python/PHP APIs to send an email via SES. Another option is to configure Linux or Unix box running Postfix to route all outgoing emails via SES.

  • » Remove sendmail
  • » Install postfix
  • » Configuring postfix for SES
  • » Test postfix

Procedure to configure AWS SES with Postfix

Before getting started with Amazon SES and Postfix, you need to sign up for AWS, including SES. You need to verify your email address and other settings. Make sure you create a user for SES access and download credentials too.

Step 1 – Uninstall Sendmail if installed

If sendmail installed remove it. Debian/Ubuntu Linux user type the following apt command/apt-get command:

$`` sudo apt --purge remove sendmail

CentOS/RHEL user type the following yum command or dnf command on Fedora/CentOS/RHEL 8.x:

$`` sudo yum remove sendmail

$`` sudo dnf remove sendmail

Sample outputs from CentOS 8 server:

FreeBSD s3cmd failed [SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED]

When I install s3cmd package on my FreeBSD system and try to use the s3cmd command I get the following error:

_ERROR: Test failed: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (ssl.c:1091)

How do I fix this problem on FreeBSD Unix system?

Amazon Simple Storage Service (s3 ) is object storage through a web service interface or API. You can store all sorts of files. FreeBSD is free and open-source operating systems. s3cmd is a command-line utility for the Unix-like system to upload, download files to AWS S3 service from the command line.

ERROR: Test failed: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed error and solution

This error indicates that you don’t have packages correctly installed, especially SSL certificates. Let us see how to fix this problem and install s3cmd correctly on FreeBSD to get rid of the problem.

How to install s3cmd on FreeBSD

Search for s3cmd package:

$ pkg search s3cmd

Execute the following command and make sure you install Python 3.x package as Python 2 will be removed after 2020:

$ sudo pkg install py37-s3cmd-2.1.0
