Tech Stuff example

Because if you put some code in your blog, you would at least make it:

Searchable
Good looking

Search on code

Search should be working even for complicated escape symbols.

sed -i 's/\"hostname\"\:.*$/\"hostname\"\: \"'$IPADDR'\"\,/g' open-falcon/agent/config/cfg.json

Or try searching for partial of a command, like this article should be returned when looking for “find grep”

find /etc -type f -exec cat '{}' \; | tr -c '.[:digit:]' '\n' | grep '^[^.][^.]*\.[^.][^.]*\.[^.][^.]*\.[^.][^.]*$'

Code highlighting examples

Because you might put code in your blog post and you want to make sure it will look good in here. And that the search function is working!

Java

java example

import java.util.*;

@Example
public class Demo {
  private static final String CONSTANT = "String";
  private Object o;
  /**
   * Creates a new demo.
   * @param o The object to demonstrate.
   */
  public Demo(Object o) {
    this.o = o;
    String s = CONSTANT + "Other example of text";
    int i = 123 - 33 % 11;
  }
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Demo demo = new Demo();
    System.out.println(demo.o.toString())
  }
}

HTML

html example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <body>
    <div class="content">
        This is an example
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Javascript

/**
 * Does a thing
 */
function helloWorld(param1, param2) {
  var something = 0;

  // Do something
  if (2.0 % 2 == something) {
    console.log('Hello, world!');
  } else {
    return null;
  }

  // @TODO comment
}

Python

import os

def some_function(param_one="", param_two=0):
    r'''A docstring'''
    if param_one > param_two: # interesting
        print("Greater")
    return (param_two - param_one + 1 + 0b10) or None

class SomeClass:
    """ dunno what I am doing """
    
    def __init__(self):
        pass

YAML

You can also render some yaml, like this _config.yml:

# Welcome to Jekyll!
#
# This config file is meant for settings that affect your whole blog, values
# which you are expected to set up once and rarely edit after that. If you find
# yourself editing this file very often, consider using Jekyll's data files
# feature for the data you need to update frequently.
#
# This file, "_config.yml" is *NOT* reloaded automatically when you use
# 'bundle exec jekyll serve'. If you change this file, please restart the server process.

# Site settings
# These are used to personalize your new site. If you look in the HTML files,
# you will see them accessed via NLP4Prog Workshop 2021, , and so on.
# You can create any custom variable you would like, and they will be accessible
# in the templates via .

# SITE CONFIGURATION
baseurl: "/Type-on-Strap"
url: "https://sylhare.github.io"

# THEME-SPECIFIC CONFIGURATION
title: Type on Strap                                    # site's title
description: "A website with blog posts and pages"      # used by search engines
avatar: assets/img/triangle.png                         # Empty for no avatar in navbar
favicon: assets/favicon.ico                             # Icon displayed in the tab

remote_theme: sylhare/Type-on-Strap                     # If using as a remote_theme in github
