How to Progamatically Validate a Mongoose Model Instance

When using built-in validations in a mongoose model, it's possible to trigger a model validation. For example if you received user inputs, and created a new instance of your model, well it's possible to make sure the models fits your needs. It's pretty convenient if you want to make sure that what you are going to insert fits your requirements without actually querying the database server.

let user = new User({username:"jack", age:38});
await user.validate();

Installing Postgres on Linux Lite (Ubuntu)

I have followed these instructions from the Postgres documentation : # Create the file repository configuration: sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt $(lsb_release -cs)-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list' # Import the repository signing key: wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add - # Update the package lists: sudo apt-get update # Install the latest version of PostgreSQL. # If you want a specific version, use 'postgresql-12' or similar instead of 'postgresql': sudo apt-get -y install postgresql   After that, I was having trouble authenticating to Postgresql after installing the db server on Linux Lite.  This stackoverflow answer was very helpful. Open the file pg_hba.conf . For Ubuntu, use for example /etc/postgresql/13/main$ sudo nano pg_hba.conf and change this line at the bottom of the file, it should be the first line of the settings: local all ...

Fixing x-invalid-end-tag lint error on Vuejs

  My situation is: Coding with vue in a Vue file. Using the Vetur plugin in VS code It then generates an error of type x-invalid-end-tag in a quite random fashion. To solve it, I have found one simple trick in this github issue: // .eslintrc.js module.exports = {  //... rules:  { 'vue/no-parsing-error': [2, { 'x-invalid-end-tag': false }]  }  }

Building a chess game in Go

Context  I have recently decided to focus my efforts on the Go programming language. I have used it professionally before and it is a pleasure to go back to it. I really enjoy working with it. In order to practice, I have created a very crude chess game. You can see the code on Github here: https://github.com/nakurai/go-chess-game.    I have tried several time to build the chess logic, and gave up every time. I am very happy to have completed it. I used the most naive data structures and algorithms in this logic, but that's how I was able to complete it. To handle the UI, I used Ebitengine . The documentation is quite sparse (at least for now) but it is a very neat library. I would like to do more with it in the future. As you can see in the video, the "AI" is for now very trivial. It just picks a move randomly among all the possible ones available. Challenges  In terms of challenges, learning how to use the game engine while ramping up my skills in Go was the main c...
