What is the default port number of MariaDB database server? (Remembering defaults is surprisingly hard since usually you don't need to specify them..)

Answer A: How to run Gitlab CI jobs only in specific branches?
Compare `$CICOMMITBRANCH` to your desired branch name in `rules`: ```yaml .gitlab-ci.yml stages: - test - deploy This job will run always. test-job: stage: test image: bash script: - echo Test successful! deploy-job: stage: deploy rules: # Run only in main...

Question How to run Gitlab CI jobs only in specific branches?
By default Gitlab CI jobs run on any commit. I would like to restrict some of them to run only on commits to specific branches. How to do this in `.gitlab-ci.yml`?

Answer A: What is the point of triggering CI/CD with an empty git commit?
There's no point. It just causes unnecessary clutter and confusion. The correct way is to configure a manual way for triggering the CI/CD pipeline. In most systems there should be an API endpoint for this. Or e.g. in Gitlab you can just navigate to Project > Pipelines and click `Run pipeline`.

Comment Post #290188 Thanks for the response! Force pushing with lease is a good addition. It can be done from the cli also: `git push --force-with-lease`

Answer A: How to compare a git stash to the current working tree?
Well it was easier than I thought: ```bash git diff stash ``` A note about the direction: This will show things which are present in the working directory but not present in the stash as added `+`. And vice versa with removed things. If this sounds counterintuitive, you can reverse it with th...

Question How to compare a git stash to the current working tree?
In git you can put your current changes aside for a moment with `git stash`. This is really neat but what often ends up happening is that you forget what was in there, and what was the state of the branch at the time of stashing. There's `git stash show`, but it only displays the differences to th...

Comment Post #290099 Yes, I wouldn't recommend writing a general purpose web server yourself, as there are good open source options to choose from. It's more of a question of how to implement the web application: As a separate process or baked into the server itself?

Comment Post #290066 So you hold that there's no point in working with gateway protocols (CGI etc.), if you anyway have a reverse proxy in front (and your tooling doesn't force you to do so)?

Answer A: How to use docker hub with podman?
Add the following to `/etc/containers/registries.conf`: ```toml unqualified-search-registries = ["docker.io"] [[registry]] location = "docker.io" ``` Now you can pull just like you would in docker: ```bash podman pull dshanley/vacuum ``` Just note that podman defines a bunch of al...

Question How to use docker hub with podman?
Unlike docker, Podman won't (understandably) use docker hub by default. You can use it explicitly like this: (just using a random example here, it's an OpenAPI linter) ```bash podman pull docker.io/dshanley/vacuum ``` But how to do it without the `docker.io` prefix?

Comment Post #290066 Yes, a reverse proxy is a good idea, but this doesn't really address the architectural dilemma of the service behind it. An interesting thought: A reverse proxy can be remarkably similar to the web server in path 1. You could say that it's just a difference of protocol (HTTP or e.g. CGI). But as ...

Question Using an existing web server vs writing your own
When writing a dynamic web service, you broadly speaking have two paths: 1. Use an existing web server (e.g. Apache, Nginx or Lighttpd) to handle the "raw" web requests and implement your own code as a separate process that communicates with the server using a gateway protocol (e.g. FastCGI). A ty...

Answer A: Git add/stage only part of a file's changes
Git's interactive mode has a patch action. This is the shortcut for it: ```bash git add --patch ``` It will split the file into hunks and interactively ask which one's to add. It has a plethora of options but selecting `?` explains them nicely: ```txt (1/2) Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,j...

Question Git add/stage only part of a file's changes
Say I've made a bunch of changes to a file and would like to split those changes into two or more commits. Normal `git add` however stages the whole file in one go. So how to add only some of the changes in a file?

Answer A: How to validate Ansible role dictionary argument's "additionalProperties"
Apparently there just isn't an equivalent of `additionalProperties` in Ansible. The way around this is to break the dictionary argument into a list of key/value pairs: ```yaml argumentspecs: main: options: dictionaryargument: description: A map from string to integers. ...

Question How to use Ansible extract filter in map with an external dictionary
Ansible's extract filter is supposedly made for use in map, but at the time of writing the documentation doesn't actually show how to use it together with the map filter. The following outputs VARIABLE IS NOT DEFINED!, so clearly it's missing something. I would like it to output [1, 2]. ```yaml...
