As such, I had to generate a stand-alone version of the demo using "real data". And, since my Angular app was expecting said data in a particular format, I ended up using the JSON_OBJECT() function, introduced in MySQL 5.7, to generate Newline-Delimited JSON (NDJSON) data that I could plug right into my Angular app.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/3962-generating-newline-delimited-json-ndjson-using-json-object-in-mysql-5-7-32.htm Blog - Wil De Bruin - cbi18n-json-resources: localization with JSON resourcesThis week I created my first official forgebox package: cbi18n-json-resources , a cbi18n JSON ResourceService. This module tries to improve the cbi18n Ortus module by offering - json resource files instead of java resources - locales organized by directory instead of partial filenames - optional default resource file(s) - hierarchical resources, so both en_GB and en_US can be handled by the same resource file, except for the different country-specific translations - and an interceptor for missing translationshttps://shiftinsert.nl/cbi18n-json-resources/ Blog - Grae Desmond - Warm Up SketchesHow to leverage an artist’s daily routine to “warm up” and get their creative juices flowing for the day to kickstart your own daily coding. How does this practice relate to being a CFML programmer?  Well we are creative and to some extent artists ourselves in crafting solutions.  Pretty much everyone I follow in the CFML community is when I see their code compared to my own.  So the premise is that simple, do something quick and easy, or hard for a learning opportunity, to start the day.  I see three ways to pull this off: Code Wars, any other active coding challenge, and picking something in your own codebase to refactor.https://coldfusion.adobe.com/2021/01/warm-up-sketches/ Blog - Adam Cameron - Tweaks I made to my Bash environment in my Docker containersPlease note that this is a sub-article of a larger body of work that is an exercise in setting up a Vue.js-driven website backed by PHP8 and MariaDB running in Docker containers. All of this is completely new to me, so is a learning exercise, rather than some exposition of my wisdom (which I have none of). I initially intended the whole exercise to be a single article, but by the time I had finished the first two sections, it was way too long for a single read, so I've split it into the following sections, each as their own article.Whilst doing all the crap to get Nginx, PHP and PHPUnit working, I was spending an awful lot of time in and out of Bash, running various bits of code and testing stuff and the like. I found there were a few annoying things about running Bash in these containers:http://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/01/tweaks-i-made-to-my-bash-environment-in.html Tweet - Julián Duque ⬢ MNTD - 40% off Manning BooksIf you missed this opportunity you can use the code: podish19 to have a 40% discount on any @ManningBooks products https://twitter.com/julian_duque/status/1349019476092661761 https://twitter.com/julian_duque/status CFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 64 ColdFusion positions from 40 companies across 31 locations in 5 Countries  since July 1st3 new job this week.Full-Time - ColdFusion Architect at Charleston, SC - United States Posted Jan 12https://www.getcfmljobs.com/viewjob.cfm?jobid=11156 Full-Time - Software Engineer - ColdFusion at Roseville, CA - United States Posted Jan 08https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-states/SoftwareEngg-ColdFusion-at-Roseville-CA/11155 Contract - ColdFusion Developer at Omaha, Nebraska - United States Posted Jan 06https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-states/CFDev-at-Omaha-NB/11154 Ortus is hiring: Senior ColdFusion CFML DeveloperAt Ortus you will be:Modernizing web applications and helping companies move out of legacy hellTeaming up with ColdFusion Experts in order to solve complex web development problems.Testing and integrating new web technologies in order to create custom business implementationsPushed to innovate constantly and create new solutions to web development problemsLeading project teams that deliver software that mattersUS Timezone availability is a mustUS Citizen or Resident or Work Visa is a musthttps://www.ortussolutions.com/about-us/careersForgeBox Module of the WeekTinEye ColdBox Module by Sean DanielsThe TinEye API is ideally suited for image and profile verification, UGC moderation, copyright compliance and fraud detection.The API allows you to automate searching for images against TinEye's ever-growing multibillion index of web images. You will be able to find where an image came from, how it is being used or if modified versions of the image exist. If you need to confirm that images submitted to your platform are unique, need to verify content or are building a fraud detection platform, the TinEye API is your ideal solution.https://www.forgebox.io/view/tineye VS Code Hint Tips and Tricks of the WeekVS Code DayJoin the VS Code team and community at a live event just for VS Code users.
