Getting started

Install Redis. On most platforms it's as easy as grabbing the sources, running make and then putting the redis-server binary in the PATH.

Once you have it installed, you can execute redis-server and it will run on localhost:6379 by default. Check the redis.conf file that comes with the sources if you want to change some settings.

If you don't have Ohm, try this:

$ [sudo] gem install ohm

Or you can grab the code from http://github.com/soveran/ohm.

Now, in an irb session you can test the Redis adapter directly:

>> require "ohm"
=> true
>> Ohm.redis.call "SET", "Foo", "Bar"
=> "OK"
>> Ohm.redis.call "GET", "Foo"
=> "Bar"

Connecting to a Redis database

Ohm uses a lightweight Redis client called Redic. To connect to a Redis database, you will need to set an instance of Redic, with an URL of the form redis://:<passwd>@<host>:<port>/<db>, through the Ohm.redis= method, e.g.

require "ohm"

Ohm.redis = Redic.new("redis://127.0.0.1:6379")

Ohm.redis.call "SET", "Foo", "Bar"

Ohm.redis.call "GET", "Foo"
# => "Bar"

Ohm defaults to a Redic connection to "redis://127.0.0.1:6379". The example above could be rewritten as:

require "ohm"

Ohm.redis.call "SET", "Foo", "Bar"

Ohm.redis.call "GET", "Foo"
# => "Bar"

All Ohm models inherit the same connection settings from Ohm.redis. For cases where certain models need to connect to different databases, they simple have to override that, i.e.

require "ohm"

Ohm.redis = Redic.new(ENV["REDIS_URL1"])

class User < Ohm::Model
end

User.redis = Redic.new(ENV["REDIS_URL2"])

Models

Ohm's purpose in life is to map objects to a key value datastore. It doesn't need migrations or external schema definitions. Take a look at the example below:

Example

class Event < Ohm::Model
  attribute :name
  reference :venue, :Venue
  set :participants, :Person
  counter :votes

  index :name
end

class Venue < Ohm::Model
  attribute :name
  collection :events, :Event
end

class Person < Ohm::Model
  attribute :name
end

All models have the id attribute built in, you don't need to declare it.

This is how you interact with IDs:

event = Event.create :name => "Ohm Worldwide Conference 2031"
event.id
# => 1

# Find an event by id
event == Event[1]
# => true

# Update an event
event.update :name => "Ohm Worldwide Conference 2032"
# => #<Event:0x007fb4c35e2458 @attributes={:name=>"Ohm Worldwide Conference"}, @_memo={}, @id="1">

# Trying to find a non existent event
Event[2]
# => nil

# Finding all the events
Event.all.to_a
# => [<Event:1 name='Ohm Worldwide Conference 2032'>]

This example shows some basic features, like attribute declarations and querying. Keep reading to find out what you can do with models.

Attribute types

Ohm::Model provides 4 attribute types:

  • Ohm::Model.attribute,
  • Ohm::Model.set
  • Ohm::Model.list
  • Ohm::Model.counter

and 2 meta types:

  • Ohm::Model.reference
  • Ohm::Model.collection.

attribute

An attribute is just any value that can be stored as a string. In the example above, we used this field to store the event's name. You can use it to store numbers, but be aware that Redis will return a string when you retrieve the value.

set

A set in Redis is an unordered list, with an external behavior similar to that of Ruby arrays, but optimized for faster membership lookups. It's used internally by Ohm to keep track of the instances of each model and for generating and maintaining indexes.

list

A list is like an array in Ruby. It's perfectly suited for queues and for keeping elements in order.

counter

A counter is like a regular attribute, but the direct manipulation of the value is not allowed. You can retrieve, increase or decrease the value, but you can not assign it. In the example above, we used a counter attribute for tracking votes. As the increment and decrement operations are atomic, you can rest assured a vote won't be counted twice.

reference

It's a special kind of attribute that references another model. Internally, Ohm will keep a pointer to the model (its ID), but you get accessors that give you real instances. You can think of it as the model containing the foreign key to another model.

collection

Provides an accessor to search for all models that reference the current model.

Tracked keys

Besides the provided attribute types, it is possible to instruct Ohm to track arbitrary keys and tie them to the object's lifecycle.

For example:

class Log < Ohm::Model
  track :text
  
  def append(msg)
    redis.call("APPEND", key[:text], msg)
  end
  
  def tail(n = 100)
    redis.call("GETRANGE", key[:text], -(n), -1)
  end
end

log = Log.create
log.append("hello\n")

assert_equal "hello\n", log.tail

log.append("world\n")

assert_equal "world\n", log.tail(6)

When the log object is deleted, the :text key will be deleted too. Note that the key is scoped to that particular instance of Log, so if log.id is 42 then the key will be Log:42:text.

Persistence strategy

The attributes declared with attribute are only persisted after calling save.

Operations on attributes of type list, set and counter are possible only after the object is created (when it has an assigned id). Any operation on these kinds of attributes is performed immediately. This design yields better performance than buffering the operations and waiting for a call to save.

For most use cases, this pattern doesn't represent a problem. If you are saving the object, this will suffice:

if event.save
  event.comments.add(Comment.create(body: "Wonderful event!"))
end

Working with Sets

Given the following model declaration:

class Event < Ohm::Model
  attribute :name
  set :attendees, :Person
end

You can add instances of Person to the set of attendees with the add method:

event.attendees.add(Person.create(name: "Albert"))

# And now...
event.attendees.each do |person|
  # ...do what you want with this person.
end

Sorting

Since attendees is a Ohm::Model::Set, it exposes two sorting methods: Ohm::Model::Collection#sort returns the elements ordered by id, and Ohm::Model::Collection#sort_by receives a parameter with an attribute name, which will determine the sorting order. Both methods receive an options hash which is explained below:

:order

Order direction and strategy. You can pass in any of the following:

  1. ASC
  2. ASC ALPHA (or ALPHA ASC)
  3. DESC
  4. DESC ALPHA (or ALPHA DESC)

It defaults to ASC.

Important Note: Starting with Redis 2.6, ASC and DESC only work with integers or floating point data types. If you need to sort by an alphanumeric field, add the ALPHA keyword.

:limit

The offset and limit from which we should start with. Note that this is 0-indexed. It defaults to 0.

Example:

limit: [0, 10] will get the first 10 entries starting from offset 0.

:by

Key or Hash key with which to sort by. An important distinction with using Ohm::Model::Collection#sort and Ohm::Model::Collection#sort_by is that sort_by automatically converts the passed argument with the assumption that it is a hash key and it's within the current model you are sorting.

Post.all.sort_by(:title)     # SORT Post:all BY Post:*->title
Post.all.sort(by: :title) # SORT Post:all BY title

Tip: Unless you absolutely know what you're doing, use sort when you want to sort your models by their id, and use sort_by otherwise.

:get

A key pattern to return, e.g. Post:*->title. As is the case with the :by option, using Ohm::Model::Collection#sort and Ohm::Model::Collection#sort_by has distinct differences in that sort_by does much of the hand-coding for you.

Post.all.sort_by(:title, get: :title)
# SORT Post:all BY Post:*->title GET Post:*->title

Post.all.sort(by: :title, get: :title)
# SORT Post:all BY title GET title

Associations

Ohm lets you declare references and collections to represent associations.

class Post < Ohm::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  collection :comments, :Comment
end

class Comment < Ohm::Model
  attribute :body
  reference :post, :Post
end

After this, every time you refer to post.comments you will be talking about instances of the model Comment. If you want to get a list of IDs you can use post.comments.ids.

References explained

Doing a Ohm::Model.reference is actually just a shortcut for the following:

# Redefining our model above
class Comment < Ohm::Model
  attribute :body
  attribute :post_id
  index :post_id

  def post=(post)
    self.post_id = post.id
  end

  def post
    Post[post_id]
  end
end

The only difference with the actual implementation is that the model is memoized.

The net effect here is we can conveniently set and retrieve Post objects, and also search comments using the post_id index.

Comment.find(post_id: 1)

Collections explained

The reason a Ohm::Model.reference and a Ohm::Model.collection go hand in hand, is that a collection is just a macro that defines a finder for you, and we know that to find a model by a field requires an Ohm::Model.index to be defined for the field you want to search.

# Redefining our post above
class Post < Ohm::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body

  def comments
    Comment.find(post_id: self.id)
  end
end

The only "magic" happening is with the inference of the index that was used in the other model. The following all produce the same effect:

# easiest, with the basic assumption that the index is `:post_id`
collection :comments, :Comment

# we can explicitly declare this as follows too:
collection :comments, :Comment, :post

# finally, we can use the default argument for the third parameter which
# is `to_reference`.
collection :comments, :Comment, to_reference

# exploring `to_reference` reveals a very interesting and simple concept:
Post.to_reference == :post
# => true

Modules

If your models are defined inside a module, you will have to define the references and collections as in the following example:

module SomeNamespace
  class Foo < Ohm::Model
    attribute :name
  end
  
  class Bar < Ohm::Model
    reference :foo, 'SomeNamespace::Foo'
  end
end

Indices

An Ohm::Model.index is a set that's handled automatically by Ohm. For any index declared, Ohm maintains different sets of objects IDs for quick lookups.

In the Event example, the index on the name attribute will allow for searches like Event.find(name: "some value").

Note that the methods Ohm::Model::Set#find and Ohm::Model::Set#except need a corresponding index in order to work.

Finding records

You can find a collection of records with the find method:

# This returns a collection of users with the username "Albert"
User.find(username: "Albert")

Filtering results

# Find all users from Argentina
User.find(country: "Argentina")

# Find all active users from Argentina
User.find(country: "Argentina", status: "active")

# Find all active users from Argentina and Uruguay
User.find(status: "active").combine(country: ["Argentina", "Uruguay"])

# Find all users from Argentina, except those with a suspended account.
User.find(country: "Argentina").except(status: "suspended")

# Find all users both from Argentina and Uruguay
User.find(country: "Argentina").union(country: "Uruguay")

Note that calling these methods results in new sets being created on the fly. This is important so that you can perform further operations before reading the items to the client.

For more information, see SINTERSTORE, SDIFFSTORE and SUNIONSTORE

Uniques

Uniques are similar to indices except that there can only be one record per entry. The canonical example of course would be the email of your user, e.g.

class User < Ohm::Model
  attribute :email
  unique :email
end

u = User.create(email: "foo@bar.com")
u == User.with(:email, "foo@bar.com")
# => true

User.create(email: "foo@bar.com")
# => raises Ohm::UniqueIndexViolation

Ohm Extensions

Ohm is rather small and can be extended in many ways.

A lot of amazing contributions are available at Ohm Contrib make sure to check them if you need to extend Ohm's functionality.

Upgrading

Ohm 2 breaks the compatibility with previous versions. If you're upgrading an existing application, it's nice to have a good test coverage before going in. To know about fixes and changes, please refer to the CHANGELOG file.

Usage

Things you need to know

All functions for creating dl4j objects return code by default

  • All of these functions have an option to return the dl4j object
    • :as-code? = false
  • This because all builders require the code representation of dl4j objects
    • this requirement is not going to change
  • INDarray creation fns default to objects, this is for convenience
    • :as-code? is still respected

API functions return code when all args are provided as code

API functions return the value of calling the wrapped method when args are provided as a mixture of objects and code or just objects

The tests are there to help clarify behavior, if you are unsure of how to use a fn, search the tests

  • for questions about spark, refer to the spark section bellow

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:
