Steps:
- step:
name: ">> Invalidate AWS CloudFront (by: Khaled alam)"
script:
- pipe: atlassian/aws-cloudfront-invalidate:0.4.1
variables:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: $AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
DISTRIBUTION_ID: $TEST_CLOUDFRONT_DISTRIBUTION_ID
# PATHS: <string> # Optional
DEBUG: "true" # OptionalNote: in case you want to invalidate specific files or paths, you should define that in PATHS: <string>
Use case:
You are using Amazon Web Service(AWS) Elastic Beanstalk to handle your deployment process via some git version control pipelines and there is a step that needs to run after your code has been deployed successfully.
There are a lot of solutions that can be used e.g CloudWatch, Lambda Function,.. etc. but I decided to invent my own solution that is easy, interesting and will cost 0$ :))
Idea:
Use a unique value on pipeline level (e.g pipeline build number) and add it to new code before upload it to server then call some endpoint or file to check this value. while this value does not equal out the new unique value in the pipeline then the deployment not finished yet and we should wait!
How to add new value to new code?
– we will create special endpoint or file in our project
– in the pipeline before upload new code to server change value of this file eg. deploy_version.txt or endpoint {api_link}/current_version
e.g: set some variable value with a new unique value. (you can do that using e.g sed Unix-like command)
ex.
we have a static endpoint that returns JSON result with the value of currentVersion variable that placed in e.g `version.js`
const currentVersion='123';
in the pipeline before upload code step: - sed -i 2"s/currentVersion='123'/currentVersion='$BITBUCKET_BUILD_NUMBER'/g" src/version.js
How to validate deployment progress?
create a bash script that will send curl request to that endpoint to validate if current version from the endpoint(currently deployed code) is equal to new unique pipeline value or not.
how can this bash script look like? email me for more details(khaledalam.net@gmail.com)
Sometimes some people ask me questions that maybe kids can know the answer to and I respond with I forget or idk!
Sometimes I forget people, names, how to go to places that I already went to before, situations, information, stories, speeches, etc..
I just want to point to something related to that topic:
This is my hard drive and I used to put things that are useful really useful.
I don’t fill my head with rubbish, from time to time I clean up my head from any shit speech, stories, memories, poor talks or information always throw them to the void.
For the information that may be useful later, always save them externally on digital drives to make your head fresh and clean as much as you can!
As we technically use /dev/null device to avoid saving the three data streams, try to define a special device for your brain too.
That will make a big difference!
P.S. There are methods that help to manage and enhance your brain performance and memorization (e.g method of loci) and I believe in the future(~20 years) the ability to manage brain will be possible digitally! and we already start hear about that (e.g Neuralink)
CoolProfilePic app helps users to change their social media profile pictures automatically based on settings that they will choose such as new photo category and the changing frequency!

The idea of automate changing facebook, twitter github, etc.. profile picture came to my mind few days ago, I decided to build this self project from A to Z using some new strategy and stack as a proof of concept of some things that I want to proof personally by myself.
Current demo is version 1 of the app

When physical RAM is already in use, VM instances use swap space as a short-term replacement for physical RAM.
Contents of RAM that aren’t in active use or that aren’t needed as urgently as other data or instructions can be temporarily paged to a swap file. This frees up RAM for more immediate use.
Calculate the swap space size
As a general rule, calculate swap space according to the following:
| Amount of physical RAM | Recommended swap space |
| 2 GB of RAM or less | 2x the amount of RAM but never less than 32 MB |
| More than 2 GB of RAM but less than 32 GB | 4 GB + (RAM – 2 GB) |
| 32 GB of RAM or more | 1x the amount of RAM |
In this example dd command, the swap file is 4 GB (128 MB x 32):
$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=128M count=322. Update the read and write permissions for the swap file:
$ sudo chmod 600 /swapfile3. Set up a Linux swap area:
$ sudo mkswap /swapfile4. Make the swap file available for immediate use by adding the swap file to swap space:
$ sudo swapon /swapfile5. Verify that the procedure was successful:
$ sudo swapon -s6. Enable the swap file at boot time by editing the /etc/fstab file.
Open the file in the editor:
$ sudo nano /etc/fstabAdd the following new line at the end of the file, save the file, and then exit:
/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0Done )
run $ htop and check swp [ ] section.
