1. Problem If you are using AWS Lambda and update your Runtime to Node.js 20.x, you may see the error as follows: Response { "errorType": "ReferenceError", "errorMessage": "require is not defined in ES module scope, you can use import instead", "trace": [ "ReferenceError: require is not defined in ES module scope, you can use import instead", " at file:///var/task/index.mjs:2:68", " at ModuleJob.run (node:internal/modules/esm/module_job:234:25)", " at async ModuleLoader.import (node:internal/modules/esm/loader:473:24)", " at async _tryAwaitImport (file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1008:16)", " at async _tryRequire (file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1057:86)", " at async _loadUserApp (file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1081:16)", " at async UserFunction.js.module.exports.load (file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1119:21)", " at async start (file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1282:23)", " at async file:///var/runtime/index.mjs:1288:1" ] } This is because Node.js 20.x uses ECMAScript modules (ESM) by default. You need to update your code to use import instead of require. ...

Last time when I restarted my Gitea server was when I upgraded it to 2.20.11. It has been six months. Although I almost pushed code everyday, I didn’t notice that my Gitea server was already attacked by hackers for a couple of months. I found out that the hackers created few users and repositories on my Gitea server everyday. I was lucky that I found out this issue before it was too late. ...

Today let’s have a look at how to integrate Slack to your CI pipeline. The CI platform we are using is DroneCI, which is a self-service Continuous Integration platform for busy development teams. 1. Benefits Well, there are many benefits to integrate Slack to your CI pipeline. Here are some of them: You can get notified when the CI pipeline is running, failed or succeeded. The notification will be sent to the Slack channel you specified. Therefore, you can easily track the CI pipeline status in the Slack channel. You can also get notified when someone pushes the code to the repository. This is very useful when you are working in a team. You can get notified when your team member pushes the code to the repository. Slack is a very popular communication tool. Your team is probably using it. Therefore, it’s very convenient to integrate Slack to your CI pipeline. 2. Prerequisites You have a Slack account. You have a DroneCI account. 3. Steps 3.1 Create Slack Channel Create channel for receiving the notification. Give a name, for example, #ci-pipeline. Remember the name, we will use it later. Specify the channel visibility. In this example, we will make it private. Then click Create. 3.2 Create Slack App Make sure you have the permission to create Slack App. If not, please contact your Slack administrator. ...

Let’s consider a situation where there are multiple folders located under a specific path, and we only have the names of a few folders that we want to retain while removing the rest. For instance, the folder structure is presented below, with all entries being folders: ├── 123123 ├── 123456 ├── 123678 ├── 123789 ├── target-folder-1 └── target-folder-2 To tackle this scenario, we can approach it in two logical ways: Firstly, we can move the known folders to a different folder at the same level as the target path, as a temporary measure. Then, we can delete the target path and rename the temporary folder to match the path name. Alternatively, we can traverse through the target path and eliminate all folders except those we intend to keep. In this post, I will demonstrate how to implement the second method using Golang. ...

1. Introduction No matter if you are a software developer, a quality assurance engineer, or a DevOps engineer, you may need to generate a self-signed mutual TLS(mTLS) or TLS certificates and keys for testing purposes. As the title shows, this post is not a click bait. I will show you how to generate a self-signed TLS certificate and key in 10s for both server and client. Of course, if you have mTLS certificate and key files, you can also use part of them as self-signed TLS certificate and key. ...

Traefik is a popular reverse proxy that can be used to expose internal containerized services to the public in a simple and intuitive way. However, if you want to expose internal services that are installed and configured directly on the host system instead of containerized, you may encounter some difficulties, particularly when using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This technical post will provide a step-by-step guide on how to expose internal non-containerized services to the public using Traefik on OCI. ...
