What is Middlewares in Mern Stack ?
Tags: mern, react, webdev
Published: 2024-03-30 15:55:32

In a MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js) project, middleware refers to software components that facilitate communication between different layers of the application stack. Middleware sits between the client-side and server-side components, intercepting requests and responses to perform various tasks such as authentication, logging, error handling, data parsing, and more.

Here's a breakdown of the role of middleware in each part of the MERN stack:

- Express.js Middleware: In the backend, Express.js middleware are functions that have access to the request and response objects. They can modify these objects, execute code, and end the request-response cycle. Express.js middleware are often used for tasks like authentication (using packages like Passport.js), logging, handling CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing), parsing request bodies, error handling, etc.
- Node.js Middleware: Node.js itself doesn't have middleware built into its core like Express.js does, but Express.js is a web framework for Node.js that provides middleware functionality.
- React.js Middleware: In the frontend, middleware might refer to Redux middleware. Redux middleware provides a third-party extension point between dispatching an action and the moment it reaches the reducer. This can be used for logging actions, handling asynchronous actions, routing, etc.
- MongoDB Middleware: MongoDB doesn't have middleware in the same sense as Express.js or React.js. However, it does support middleware-like functionality through features like triggers, which allow executing custom logic before or after certain database operations.

Overall, middleware in a MERN project helps in enhancing the functionality, security, and performance of the application by intercepting and processing requests and responses at various stages of the application flow.

Published: 2024-03-30 15:40:39

Writing a blog post can sometimes feel like navigating through uncharted territory. You might have the knowledge, but putting it into practice requires a different kind of skill. Much like driving, theory can only take you so far; the real learning happens when you take the wheel and hit the road.

In this article, we'll break down the process of crafting an exceptional blog post into five simple steps. Whether you're a seasoned blogger or just dipping your toes into the world of content creation, these steps will help you create compelling posts that resonate with your audience.

**Step 1: Planning**
Before you start writing, take some time to plan your post. Consider your target audience, the purpose of your post, and the key points you want to convey. Outline the structure of your post to ensure a clear and logical flow of ideas.

**Step 2: Write Your Headline**
Your headline is the first thing readers will see, so make it count. Craft a headline that is attention-grabbing, descriptive, and relevant to your content. Use power words or numbers to pique curiosity and compel readers to click.

![Headline exmaple image](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/lh9krkg3za7or6i5565f.jpg)



**Step 3: Draft Your Post**
With your outline and headline in place, it's time to start drafting your post. Write in a clear and concise manner, keeping your audience's needs and interests in mind. Use subheadings to break up your content and make it easier to read.

![writing process exmaple image](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/tl8wfo8j7hyo6dqu2724.jpg)

**Step 4: Add Images**
Visuals can enhance the appeal of your blog post and help convey your message more effectively. Incorporate relevant images, infographics, or videos to support your content and break up large blocks of text.

**Step 5: Edit Your Blog Post**
Before publishing your post, take the time to edit and proofread it carefully. Check for spelling and grammar errors, ensure consistency in formatting, and refine your language for clarity and impact. Consider asking a colleague or friend to review your post for feedback.

![Document review exmaple image](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/63gnyajcfrp29tkzu55i.jpg)

By following these five steps, you can write blog posts that not only attract readers but also keep them engaged and coming back for more. So, the next time you sit down to write a blog post, remember to plan, craft a compelling headline, draft your content, add visuals, and edit thoroughly. Happy blogging!
Filament has SPA mode!
Tags: filament, laravel
Published: 2024-03-30 15:32:39

Did you know, with Filament you can enable SPA mode for your panel.

You need to add `->spa()` in your PanelProvider.

```php
<?php

class AdminPanelProvider extends PanelProvider
{
    public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
    {
        return $panel
            ->default()
            ->id('admin')
            ->spa()
            // ...
    }
}

```

In SPA mode, you visit the any page, Filament will cache the assets. So next time when you visit the page asset will load from the cache.

and there you go!..
Exclude node_modules folder from Time Machine backup
Tags: productivity, node
Published: 2024-03-30 15:24:10

**Note**: This post was originally published on [my blog](https://blog.stefankolb.de/posts/tips-and-tricks-4-exclude-node_modules-folder-from-time-machine-backup-short).

On macOS, TimeMachine is a great tool for backing up your Mac. However, if you work on a lot of JavaScript projects, you probably have a couple of `node_modules` folders that don't need to be included in your backup. Here is how you can list, add and remove folders from your Time Machine backup.

```shell
# List currently excluded node_modules folders
$> sudo mdfind "com_apple_backup_excludeItem = 'com.apple.backupd'" | grep "node_modules"

# Exclude a folder from backup
$> tmutil addexclusion ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_FOLDER

# Remove folder from the list of excluded folders
$> tmutil removeexclusion ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_FOLDER
```

Of course, this also works with any other folder, not only `node_modules`.

If you don't want to use the terminal, you can also use macOS' system settings: `System Settings -> General -> Time Machine -> Options` (for macOS Sonoma).
After the last product launch, I spent 2 days developing a website to make AI ICONS
Published: 2024-03-30 15:01:04

Talk about a little about my recent experience developing a site
Using nextjs to develop a project again, different from the last ai wallpaper station, I have been familiar with the whole link of developing products with nextjs full-stack. The last product development was almost from scratch, from front-end technology, oauth, graph bed to database, every link had to be explored for a long time, and it took a month on and off. This time, it only took 2 days to develop the icon making station after finding out.
About making ICONS, I have observed many other AI-generated icon websites. They are very powerful. In addition to quickly generating ICONS through prompts, you can also customize colors, styles, etc. However, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, part of the icon generation is not quite in line with the aesthetic 😂, most of the use scenarios are not the same, so we made an icon station for mobile application scenarios, and now only supports the input of English prompt words.

At present, the general process has been completed, and there are still many details to be improved. It is necessary to pay attention to the following: in order to get the desired icon, such as: "icon design for shopping", etc.

Import excel into database automatically-ExcelToDatabase
Published: 2024-03-30 14:39:58


![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/6t3n0o6au33c6t5cxsmq.png)

## What is it?
**ExcelToDatabase** is a productivity tool that can automatically import excel into a database. Supports excel files in xls/xlsx/xlsm/xlsb/csv/txt format, imported into databases including mysql/oracle/sql server/postgresql/access/hive/sqlite/dm. ***Automation*** is its main feature, because it can automatically generate table information based on excel to establish contact with the database, and finally import the data into the database table. ***Batch*** is another feature of it, because it can be automated, so you can import thousands of tables at one time instead of importing them one by one. ***Scheduled*** import and export, real-time refresh, to achieve seamless connection between Excel data and database table data.

## Features
### Automatic
  The tool can automatically generate table names, column names, column types and lengths based on excel, and finally create tables and import data, or automatically match and append or update data based on the generated table information and database tables.
  
### Batch
  Usually you can only use other tools to manually import excel into the database one by one, but now, you can import thousands of tables at once.

### Simple
  Just provide the excel file location and target database connection information, and the tool will start working until all excel is imported.

### Fast
  It takes 3s to import all 10 excel sheets with 10,000 rows x 20 columns x 1MB each. 
  It only takes 3m24s to import a large excel with 1 million rows x 50 columns x 300MB.
  It only takes 5m35s to import a giant csv with 10 million rows x 30 columns x 4GB. 
  and importing a giant excel with 10 sheets totaling 10 million rows x 50 columns x 2GB only takes 31m25s 
  (normal notebook test)

### Smart
  Do you often encounter errors when importing manually? do not worry! Tools can easily avoid or automatically correct them.

### Timing
  You can use the built-in scheduled task function or combine it with other scheduled task programs to achieve scheduled import.

### Real-time
  Using scheduled tasks, when excel data is updated, it can be updated synchronously to the database in real-time.
  
### Security
  The software is green and requires no installation, and can work under any network conditions.

Quick Guide: Publish Your First App on Google Play Console in Simple Steps
Tags: android, androiddev, google, developers
Published: 2024-03-30 14:20:16


Hi. I am zm soft, I registered as a developer last year (end of '23) and started releasing apps. I have also released [an app for developers](https://zmsoft.org/about-apps/androiddeveloperspayforward) to help developers cooperate with each other to overcome closed testing. Please check it out if you like.

In this article, I will describe the tasks that are required after developer registration at PlayConsole before an app can be released.
This article is for those who have registered as a developer but do not know what to do before releasing the app.

The UI of PlayConsole is quite unique and confusing.
I myself had trouble figuring out what to do when registering an app for the first time, so I put together a video about it.
The content is focused on "what you should do in the minimum/shortest steps" and touches on the following points that you may have trouble with at the time of initial registration.
 
 * Choosing a test pattern
 * How to write a privacy policy
 * Recommended items in the selections such as paid/free, email list/GoogleGroups, etc.
 * Items that can be skipped (even though they seem necessary at first glance in the UI)

Please take a look at this for reference if you like. We would appreciate a high rating.

I’m thrilled to announce I recently passed the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate (SAA-C03) Exam! Earning this certification has been an incredibly rewarding experience, and I wanted to share the strategies that helped me find success.

##The Strategy

###Here's a breakdown of the steps that paved my way:

- Understanding the Blueprint: I began by diving into the official AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate Exam Guide ([[invalid URL removed])). This provided a crystal-clear outline of the specific skills I needed to master and the different AWS services I should be intimately familiar with.

- AWS Skill Builder Learning Path: Next, I completed the AWS Solutions Architect course on the AWS Skill Builder platform (https://explore.skillbuilder.aws/). This was pivotal in understanding common exam patterns, the types of questions to expect, and the core concepts I needed to solidify.

- Digital Cloud Training Deep Dive: The Solutions Architect playlist by Digital Cloud Training (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5gnoVjpfWxU) proved invaluable. This resource helped me refine my knowledge and conquer those last tricky details.

- Practice Makes Perfect: The AWS Solutions Architect Associate practice exam, also available on AWS Skill Builder, was a fantastic way to gauge my readiness. Simulating the real exam environment helped me identify areas for improvement and boosted my confidence.

##Additional Tips

###Beyond these primary resources, here's what else helped me along the way:

- Flashcards: I created flashcards for key service definitions and architectural best practices. This was especially useful for quick revision sessions.
- Hands-on Practice: There's no substitute for experimenting! Spinning up a free-tier AWS environment let me play around with different services to cement my understanding.
