I use Docker to create encapsulated, versioned development environments for my projects. That way I can have different package versions installed side by side, and can easily rollback environment changes. See my Luffer project for details.

Nice - thank you. Can you talk about you local dev experience? Do you cerate a docker image locally and work against that?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, I run the docker container locally in detached mode, with the base directory of my project mapped into it, and use docker exec to send it commands. This is all automated / abstracted away by Luffer, the tool I mentioned earlier.

Excellent. Thank you for the info.

I use VMWare/VMPlayer when I need to test my development under different environments.
I believe Docker, or its original incarnation, was initially created to develop applications that would run within their own OS\VM-like process so that applications could be distributed without any concerns for the configuration of the host operating systems.
That phase of this development appeared to have petered out a number of years ago leaving everyone with the new construct that the current version of Docker is today.
Technically, I never understood the need for such implementations if an organization is primarily supporting one major operating system. Those that support multiple operating systems are doing it for one of two reasons; the organization has a definitive requirement to do so or they are simply stupid and like to have additional complexity in their environments so they can feel important.
In any event, though the explanations here as to what Docker actually is may be correct; to me nonetheless, it is just another form of virtualization even if the Docker supporters deny this...

I am still trying to educate myself as to all the differences and pros and cons between containers vs VMs, and it's not easy to read past the marketing hype.

My naïveté made me think that I could run an ASP.NET app on Docker on Linux. It was not fun and it did not work (for me).
|
|
|
|
|
ASP.NET Core should run okay, at least in theory. What problems did you run into if I may ask?
|
|
|
|
|
This was in 2015, ASP.NET core didn't exist. I tried to install Mono and the components that supported ASP.NET on Mono but I could not install them correctly, mostly due to my lack of experience.

I'm certainly no fan of rednecks - but it just occurs to me . . . (you should have expected this):
As a Welshman, you'd feel right at home in that environment, no? Admittedly they have more hogs than sheep, but, well, you know.

B'out anything.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I love a good stereotype joke as much as the rest, especially when it's about Kiwis, but I found this read really interesting:
Quote: by the 1910s, the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) was fighting for pay equality, and requiring an oath from every member not to discriminate against any fellow member by “creed, or color, or nationality”.
Its first paid organizer in West Virginia was a black man.
...
“I call it a darn solid mass of different colors and tribes, blended together, woven together, bound, interlocked, tongued and grooved together in one body.”
Absolutely no comment on the joke - I was just dumbfounded how little I knew about the term 'redneck' and I love when long held assumptions are completely turned upside down.
cheers

My final and parting comment on this is a quote from the late Robert Muldoon, former Prime Minister of New Zealand
"New Zealanders moving to Australia raised the IQ of both countries”.

Hi All,
I seem to remember there being a Python Q&A on CP, now I come to use it I can't find it! I should be able to see it (with Delphi etc. as it's not M$) or am I stuck with SO ?

There is no specific Python forum: Discussion Boards list[^] but QA accepts questions about all languages.
Enter there at your own risk, however!

I thought not, wait if the answer was random does that mean it could really be yep, or maybe.
