How to visualize my first post with octopress? - octopress

I installed octopress (git,RVM) as documented on octopress.org
I created one post and executed the commands:
rake generate
rake preview
This last command is never finished !?
Any explanation ?
Ruby version 2.0.0
The command
rake watch
also loops

rake preview is a command which launches your site running locally on port 4000. Therefore if you execute that command and browse to localhost:4000 you should see your site. The command will appear to be running constantly (until you ctrl-c out) as it is running a server.
This is covered under the blogging basics - http://octopress.org/docs/blogging/
rake watch will also run continually as all it is designed to do is monitor for changes in your source and sass then if any are detected will automatically run a generate task.

Show Fastlane Spaceship sandbox logs when running script

When I run the Fastlane Spaceship sandbox via bundle exec fastlane spaceship there are pretty nice and useful logs showing what is happening during the process and on which step it is currently.
I'm using Thor to run a Spaceship script on its own as CLI, and I would like to have those same logs shown during the process. Is there a way to do that?
The logs of each run can be found after the process is finished but they are different from the ones shown in the sandbox and pretty verbose.

How to find the right version of Ruby

I'm currently working on a build pipeline that uses Jenkins and GitLab to trigger builds for the project. Basically, the build is triggered when someone pushes to the repository. Also, some Ruby scripts are executed as part of the build process. These scripts run some checks on the projects and perform some fixes, like synchronizing an Xcode project with added and deleted files from the source directory - in this case they are not the same.
I'm using several tools to configure the pipeline. The builds run on a machine that is physically located on the build slave. Jenkins is deployed to an AWS machine. For this reason, I used pritunl to connect the two on a virtual network. I can use local IPs to communicate between the machines and SSH is working fine both ways.
When I push to the remote the build starts correctly on the slave, but it fails to complete. However, if I manually access using SSH through the terminal, the build performs fine. This is the output I get from Jenkins:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require': cannot load such file -- xcodeproj (LoadError)
from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require'
from /Users/jenkins/workspace/Core/platform/ios/scripts/pbxsync.rb:58:in `<main>'
As you can see, it fails to require Xcodeproj, causing the build to fail. Still, this only happens if the build is triggered by Jenkins, not manually.
This makes me think that Jenkins is using some different installation of Ruby, or at least a different environment. Basically what I need is to install gems for the same Ruby environment that Jenkins is using, but I don't know which one that is. Any ideas?
Jenkins has a console that runs Groovy scripts on the remote slave. I've been playing with it a bit, but not many conclusions so far. Maybe that helps.
This may be important; this is the shebang I'm using for the Ruby scripts: #!/usr/bin/env ruby
On the terminal, I'm using the same user as Jenkins is to access the slave machine. It's called "jenkins".
One thing I forgot to mention is that the output is telling me the right version: /Users/jenkins/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.4.0. At least that's the path it's indicating it's trying to load the gem from. So I tried the following:
: /Users/jenkins/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.4.0/bin/ruby
require 'xcodeproj'
Then I press ctrl+D and get no output - that installation of ruby is finding the gem properly.
If you are using Jenkins Slave plugin to communicate between Jenkins Master and Jenkins Slave, every command that u specify will be run in non-interactive shell. That means that Jenkins will only have access to system ruby in your case.
So if you want to install something that needs to be installed you have to do it in system ruby. You are using rvm so: rvm use system and you can install gem to system ruby.
If you want to use different Ruby version than system ruby you need to add RVM to $PATH for non-interactive shell. Here is basic setup that should help: https://rvm.io/rvm/basics
I finally managed it. As #Cosaquee indicated in another response, it's important to distinguish between interactive and non-interactive shells. The main reason for this is because, depending on how you call SSH, it makes a difference. As the man page indicates:
If command is specified, it is executed on the remote host instead of
a login shell.
This is meaningful, because the Launch Command for the node I have set for Jenkins is this one:
ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x java -jar ~/bin/slave.jar
In the meanwhile, I was logging in with the standard ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x from the terminal, which starts a login shell. It makes sense that I was getting different results because the two shells load different initial scripts. Basically, if you use ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x to login into the machine ~/.bash_profile is loaded, while if you specify a command, such as ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x whatever, then ~/.bashrc is loaded instead. As such, I added this line to ~/.bashrc:
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
Without it I got:
RVM is not a function, selecting rubies with 'rvm use ...' will not
work.
The advantage was that I could now use RVM from the same environment Jenkins was using. The rest is easy:
ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x rvm --default use 2.3
And:
ssh jenkins#x.x.x.x
rvm --default use 2.3
And both are now using the same version of ruby.

Running selenium tests in ruby with Jenkins

I'm trying to set up CI on my local machine running on Mac. To do so I use Xubuntu virtual machine, Jenkins, and some simple selenium tests. tests on github
I get fresh install of Xubuntu, where I install Jenkins using official manual.
In Jenkins I installed some plugins(git, ruby, rake, rbenv).
In job config I use rbenv wrapper(2.1.0) with ignorance of os versions, also I use this gemlist:
bundler,rake,rspec,selenium-webdriver,capybara
and running that job with
rspec spec
And when I run this job I recieve something like that for every test:
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError:
unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
full output is here
it looks like jenkins user have no access to display to run/see firefox.
Anyone know how to make it work?
We ran into this at work recently and actually opted for Capybara and set the driver to poltergeist. This seemed better than trying to figure out how to run FF on our VM's.
That said, we were able to get a small test suite running by following the instructions here
Answer was not so simple as I think.
The problem is that jenkins service has no access to displays (when it installed via native package). Thats why when I try to start Firefox it's throw me a error. try:
$ sudo su - jenkins && firefox
So it's need access to display to start browser successfully.
This is how I done it:
first of all I used answer form here where I changed to my local user.
Then I installed xvfb plugin to Jenkins, and in my build job preset display to '0' - which is my actual user display. with that option all my tests would run 'headless' but on actual display.
This could be not the best way to solve my problem, but it definitely works for me.

unable to connect to chromedriver http://127.0.0.1:50299 (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError) [duplicate]

I get this error when I run my cucumber tests:
"*Unable to either launch or connect to Chrome. Please check that ChromeDriver is up-to-date. Using Chrome binary at: /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError)
*"
I downloaded the chromdriver, unzip it, copy it to the path (/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome ) and sudo chmod +x /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome.
which google-chrome : /usr/bin/google-chrome
which chromedriver : /usr/share/ruby-rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p318/bin/chromedriver
capybara (1.1.2)
cucumber (0.9.4)
cucumber-rails (0.3.2)
selenium-webdriver (2.20.0)
I searched my error but none of the answers worked for me!
When I run my test I do not see chrome starts!
I really dont know what is wrong! I tried two different versions of chromedriver!
Jenkins should run/executes my tests in CI.The tests work when you run them but not when Jenkins runs them? I could run them by another user and then I installed jenkins and I get this error. I get the same error when I run my tests in terminal at terminal as well.Did you read https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/My+software+builds+on+my+computer+but+not+on+Jenkins ? I couldnt find much about my problem here. xvfb: I installed the plugin in the jenkins but in the build environment if I click "run xvfb before the build and shut it down after", I get this error: "FATAL: null java.lang.NullPointerException"
Please provide more details. How does this question relate to Jenkins? Is Jenkins executing the tests? The tests work when you run them but not when Jenkins runs them? You do not go so far as to say that out loud, but I will assume it because it is what people usually need help with.
Did you read https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/My+software+builds+on+my+computer+but+not+on+Jenkins ?
If you are executing Chrome inside a Jenkins job, do you have something like https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvfb+Plugin or https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvnc+Plugin installed?
chromedriver can be installed in two ways: downloading, decompressing the zip and putting the file in "/usr/bin" or adding the "chromedriver-helper" gem in your Gemfile.
Choose one or another way because doing both many time it causes problems. If you are installing chromedriver from google, be sure to uninstall the gem:
gem uninstall chromedriver-helper
and be sure chromedriver is in your path:
which chromedriver
Give this a try instead => https://github.com/flavorjones/chromedriver-helper
Finally I found the answer:
if you want to run GUI tests on Jenkins CI running on Windows do not
configure it as a windows service instead run it from the command
prompt or set it up as a scheduled task to run on windows logon using
the command “java -jar jenkins.war”

Heroku Cedar Stack and command heroku run console

In my old Ruby 1.9.2 Sinatra apps running on Bamboo stack, heroku console provided a shell that not only initialized Active Record but also logged to a history file in my .heroku directory.
After moving to Heroku Cedar stack and using Ruby 1.9.3, I found heroku run console did not load any of my Active Record models. I fixed that by writing a small ruby script to initialize Active Record and load my models.
I execute this using the awkward heroku run 'bundle exec irb -r ./console'
This IRB console fires up fine and gives me access to my model data, but no history is logged.
1) Why is heroku run console so neutered?
2) How can I get my console sessions to log to history?
Please?
Thanks
Add the following line to your Procfile:
console: bundle exec irb -r ./console
Keeping the history is not easily possible, as it will spin up a dyno for every new invocation (cedar stack doesn't keep the history for Rails console, either). You could try using rlwrap to keep your history on the local machine.
From the docs:
You can use heroku console as a stand-in for Rails’s script runner, to
run one-time commands directly from the command line
and
Without an argument, heroku console launches an interactive console
similar to irb or the Rails script/console command
run console is aimed at running the Rails console, or irb.
