  Stub Mixlib::ShellOut and shell_out in Ruby unit testing

Unit testing is part of software development to ensure the tiny component of a function can work as designed. Different frameworks and tools can be used to run unit testing for different programming languages. In Ruby, one popular unit testing framework is Rspec, or Chefspec if you are writing Chef recipes. While writing Chef recipes, some low level commands(DOS commands or shell commands) need to be executed on the managed resource to perform actions or gather information. For example, lis...

  Service discovery with etcd

In previous post, we have talked about etcd and its usage. This post we will cover how to implement server discovery with etcd. Service discovery is to solve one of the most commonly seen scenarios in distributed system where how to find the corresponding target service to talk to. In short, it is to find some server which one can talk to based on some service name. A complete service discovery system include below three key functions: Service registration: A service must register itself to so...

  How to do pprof for gRPC service

gRPC is a RPC framework based on HTTP and is frequently used for communications among micro service inside the same organization network. However,  the service functions cannot be accessed via normal HTTP URL as it's not a WEB framework. In this case, how to do pprof on a gRPC service? The trick is starting a HTTP server asynchronously while starting the gRPC service. This HTTP server can be accessed to run prrof debug. go func(){ http.ListenAndServe(":10001", nil) }() Since it uses the de...

  Calculating Token Count for Claude API Using Go: A Step-by-Step Guide

When working with large language models like Claude from Anthropic, understanding how many tokens your input consumes is essential for managing costs and optimizing performance. In this blog, we’ll explore how to calculate token counts for a given input using Go. We’ll use Anthropic’s count_tokens API endpoint, which provides a straightforward way to determine token usage. Prerequisites Before diving in, ensure you have: A working Go environment (installation guide). An Anthro...

  Should we use Abstract class or Interface?

When we write programs, we may often get into a situation where we don't know whether we should use Abstract class or Interface when we want to define an abstract object. These two are very similar and they are interchangeable in many cases. On Stackoverflow, this question is asked lots of times and it's related to many programming languages. Also in the official documentation of PHP regarding the Abstract class and Interface, people are arguing about this. To understand this question, their dif...

  How to check which Ohai plugin hangs in chef client run

Ohai plugins are very important components in chef client which aims to provide resource management automation on a server. The data discovered by Ohai plugins are describing the current state of the server and they will be used to maintain the server in a desired state. Each Ohai plugin discovers a specific pierce of information about the server such as cpu, memory, middleware etc. However, there are rare occasions(well I am a bit optimistic here) someone may find that the chef client...
