Installing Postgres via Brew

Pre-Reqs

Brew Package Manager

In your command-line run the following commands:

brew doctor
brew update

Enable SSL in Apache (OSX)

The following will guide you through the process of enabling SSL on a Apache webserver

The instructions have been verified with OSX El Capitan (10.11.2) running Apache 2.4.16
The instructions assume you already have a basic Apache configuration enabled on OSX, if this is not the case feel free to consult Gist: "Enable Apache HTTP server (OSX)"

Apache SSL Configuration

Create a directory within /etc/apache2/ using Terminal.app: sudo mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl
Next, generate two host keys:

Local SSL websites on macOS Sierra

These instructions will guide you through the process of setting up local, trusted websites on your own computer.

These instructions are intended to be used on macOS Sierra, but they have been known to work in El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, and Mountain Lion.

NOTE: You may substitute the edit command for nano, vim, or whatever the editor of your choice is. Personally, I forward the edit command to Sublime Text:

alias edit="/Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl"

Better Jasmine Tests With `this`

On the Refinery29 Mobile Web Team, codenamed "Bicycle", all of our unit tests are written using Jasmine, an awesome BDD library written by Pivotal Labs. We recently switched how we set up data for tests from declaring and assigning to closures, to assigning properties to each test case's this object, and we've seen some awesome benefits from doing such.

The old way

Up until recently, a typical unit test for us looked something like this:

describe('views.Card', function() {

	if [ -L $0 ] ; then
	BASEDIR=$(cd "$(dirname "$(readlink $0)")"; pwd -P) # for symbolic link
	else
	BASEDIR=$(cd "$(dirname "$0")"; pwd -P) # for normal file
	fi
