More interesting stuff for my neuron, and deliberate TDD (Test-Driven Development) practice.

Annalisa

A lot of new work at

https://github.com/ajlopez/Annalisa

It takes an string and extract information based on rules. For example, it can detect the brand of a product description, its weight, weight unit, etc. I put an online demo in Spanish for analyze or search into Preciosa project data:

http://preciosaannalisa.herokuapp.com/

DictSharp

I started a simple in-process, in-memory key/value store in C#:

https://github.com/ajlopez/DictSharp

A dictionary with a an internal tree, instead of using hashes. I should complete the node split operation, enumerate the keys, and compress the keys. A key is an string, and the associated value could be typed or a generic object.

SimpleGeoLoc

Motivated by a use case of Preciosa project, I wrote:

https://github.com/ajlopez/SimpleGeoLoc

A simple JavaScript module to manage a list of geolocated items (via latitude, longitude), and then retrieve the items near a point in a given radius.

OStore

I refactored my in-memory repository:

https://github.com/ajlopez/OStore

to support optional autonumeric ids, and tests using SimpleUnit. Notably, I found an issue: SimpleUnit can be installed as global module in NPM (Node Package Manager) but the bin file has a shebang (!#) in the first line, ending with \r\n (carriage return line feed). Then, Linux operating system take the shebang, and use it as the name of the program to execute the script, WITH THE CARRIAGE RETURN in the name. So, I fixed it removing the carriage return. Weird thing in the third millenium. I updated

https://github.com/ajlopez/AjGenesisNode
https://github.com/ajlopez/SimpleUnit

to have no carriage return in bin scripts.

Others

I worked on two non-public projects, using C#. I started my Python samples https://github.com/ajlopez/PythonSamples. I added some nodes to AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) in https://github.com/ajlopez/ScalaSharp.

More fun is coming.

Keep tuned!
