Ideas/Notes

Just a place for me to jot down some general ideas:

  • Mod Ideas
  • Faction with semi-random quests (ala Daggerfall), many medium-large pre-randomly generated dungeons
  • In-game strategy (ala Civilization). Build 'cities' within the game, gather resources to create buildings, gain prestige to get involved with the province politics (quest line).
  • Luggage (ala Pratchett's Disc World). A large trunk follows you around with a mind, and set of sharp teeth, of its own.


Handy MediaWiki Queries

  • Count of Daily Edits
     SELECT COUNT( * ) , LEFT( rev_timestamp, 8 ) AS revdate
     FROM `revision` 
     GROUP BY revdate
Add a WHERE rev_minor_edit=0 to not count minor edits.
  • Count of Daily Edits from a Given Date by User
     SELECT COUNT(*) as cnt, rev_user, rev_user_text, LEFT(rev_timestamp, 8) as revdate 
     FROM revision 
     WHERE rev_timestamp > "20121101" 
     GROUP BY rev_user
     ORDER by cnt;

Useful Commands

  • List Processes Using Port 80
 fuser 80/tcp
  • Memory Usage
 free -m
 top
  • Disk Usage
 df
 du
  • Group Apache Log Errors
  egrep "\[.*\] \[error\] \[client .*\]" error_log | gawk -F ']' '{print $4}' | sort | uniq -c | sort > errors.txt
  • Sorting the Apache Error Log
  awk -vFS=']' '/\[.*\] \[error\] \[client .*\]/ { a[$4]++; } END { for (i in a) print a[i], i; }' < error_log | sort -n > errors.txt
  • Extract Database from Full Dump File
  sed -n '/^-- Current Database: `dbname`/,/^-- Current Database: `/p' alldbs.sql > dbname.sql
  • Extract Pages from Squid Log and Purge
  awk '{print $7}' access.log > allpages.txt
  grep  "/wiki/" allpages.txt > mainpages.txt
  grep "www.uesp.net" mainpages.txt > wwwpages.txt
  egrep "m.uesp.net|mobile.uesp.net" mainpages.txt > mobilepages.txt
  sort wwwpages.txt > wwwpagesort.txt
  uniq wwwpagesort.txt > wwwpagesuniq.txt
  php purgeList.php --purge < wwwpagesuniq.txt
  • Use yum EPEL Repo
   yum install epel-release

Custom Scripts

  • Counts all connections per IP address and displays sorted list. Add an optional connection type parameter (TIME_WAIT, ESTABLISHED, LISTEN, etc...) to only list connections in that state.
  • Helper script for banning/unbanning IP addresses using iptables at the server level.


Setting up Eclipse for Remote Development

Eclipse can be setup for remote development of PHP (and anything else) directly from the UESP servers:

  • Download the base version of Eclipse
  • Install/extract to a desired directory and run
  • Go to Help--Install New Software
  • Select All Sites from the drop down list
  • Find and select the following add-ons:
  • PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature
  • JavaScript Development Tools
  • Eclipse Web Developer Tools
  • Remote System Explorer End-User Runtime
  • Install the add-ons and restart Eclipse
  • Open a Remote System Explorer perspective (or from within Window--Show View--Other)
  • Define a new connection using a SSH session to content3.uesp.net (you need to have a shell login on content3)
