Plugin Development: Providers
This page documents how to add support for new providers to Vagrant, allowing Vagrant to run and manage machines powered by a system other than VirtualBox. Prior to reading this, you should be familiar with the plugin development basics.
Prior to developing a provider you should also be familiar with how providers work from a user standpoint.
Warning: Advanced Topic! Developing plugins is an advanced topic that only experienced Vagrant users who are reasonably comfortable with Ruby should approach.
Example Provider: AWS
The best way to learn how to write a provider is to see how one is written in practice. To augment this documentation, please heavily study the vagrant-aws plugin, which implements an AWS provider. The plugin is a good example of how to structure, test, and implement your plugin.
Definition Component
Within the context of a plugin definition, new providers are defined like so:
provider "my_cloud" do
require_relative "provider"
Provider
end
Providers are defined with the provider
method, which takes a single argument specifying the name of the provider. This is the name that is used with vagrant up
to specify the provider. So in the case above, our provider would be used by calling vagrant up --provider=my_cloud
.
The block argument then lazily loads and returns a class that implements the Vagrant.plugin(2, :provider)
interface, which is covered next.
Provider Class
The provider class should subclass and implement Vagrant.plugin(2, :provider)
which is an upgrade-safe way to let Vagrant return the proper parent class.
This class and the methods that need to be implemented are very well documented. The documentation done on the class in the comments should be enough to understand what needs to be done.
Viewing the AWS provider class as well as the overall structure of the plugin is recommended as a strong getting started point.
Instead of going in depth over each method that needs to be implemented, the documentation will cover high-level but important points to help you create your provider.
Box Format
Each provider is responsible for having its own box format. This is actually an extremely simple step due to how generic boxes are. Before explaining you should get familiar with the general box file format.
The only requirement for your box format is that the metadata.json
file have a provider
key which matches the name of your provider you chose above.
In addition to this, you may put any data in the metadata as well as any files in the archive. Since Vagrant core itself doesn't care, it is up to your provider to handle the data of the box. Vagrant core just handles unpacking and verifying the box is for the proper provider.
As an example of a couple box formats that are actually in use:
-
The
virtualbox
box format is just a flat directory of the contents of aVBoxManage export
command. -
The
vmware_fusion
box format is just a flat directory of the contents of avmwarevm
folder, but only including the bare essential files for VMware to function. -
The
aws
box format is just a Vagrantfile defaulting some configuration. You can see an example aws box unpacked here.
Before anything with your provider is even written, you can verify your box format works by doing vagrant box add
with it. When you do a vagrant box list
you can see what boxes for what providers are installed.
You do not need the provider plugin installed to add a box for that provider.
Actions
Probably the most important concept to understand when building a provider is the provider "action" interface. It is the secret sauce that makes providers do the magic they do.
Actions are built on top of the concept of middleware, which allow providers to execute multiple distinct steps, have error recovery mechanics, as well as before/after behaviors, and much more.
Vagrant core requests specific actions from your provider through the action
method on your provider class. The full list of actions requested is listed in the comments of that method on the superclass. If your provider doesn't implement a certain action, then Vagrant core will show a friendly error, so don't worry if you miss any, things won't explode or crash spectacularly.
Take a look at how the VirtualBox provider uses actions to build up complicated multi-step processes. The AWS provider uses a similar process.
Built-in Middleware
To assist with common tasks, Vagrant ships with a set of built-in middleware. Each of the middleware is well commented on the behavior and options for each, and using these built-in middleware is critical to building a well-behaved provider.
These built-in middleware can be thought of as a standard library for your actions on your provider. The core VirtualBox provider uses these built-in middleware heavily.
Persisting State
In the process of creating and managing a machine, providers generally need to store some sort of state somewhere. Vagrant provides each machine with a directory to store this state.
As a use-case example for this, the VirtualBox provider stores the UUID of the VirtualBox virtual machine created. This allows the provider to track whether the machine is created, running, suspended, etc.
The VMware provider actually copies the entire virtual machine into this state directory, complete with virtual disk drives and everything.
The directory is available from the data_dir
attribute of the Machine
instance given to initialize your provider. Within middleware actions, the machine is always available via the :machine
key on the environment. The data_dir
attribute is a Ruby Pathname object.
It is important for providers to carefully manage all the contents of this directory. Vagrant core itself does little to clean up this directory. Therefore, when a machine is destroyed, be sure to clean up all the state from this directory.
Configuration
Vagrant supports provider-specific configuration, allowing for users to finely tune and control specific providers from Vagrantfiles. It is easy for your custom provider to expose custom configuration as well.
Provider-specific configuration is a special case of a normal configuration plugin. When defining the configuration component, name the configuration the same as the provider, and as a second parameter, specify :provider
, like so:
config("my_cloud", :provider) do
require_relative "config"
Config
end
As long as the name matches your provider, and the second :provider
parameter is given, Vagrant will automatically expose this as provider-specific configuration for your provider. Users can now do the following in their Vagrantfiles:
config.vm.provider :my_cloud do |config|
# Your specific configuration!
end
The configuration class returned from the config
component in the plugin is the same as any other configuration plugin, so read that page for more information. Vagrant automatically handles configuration validation and such just like any other configuration piece.
The provider-specific configuration is available on the machine object via the provider_config
attribute. So within actions or your provider class, you can access the config via machine.provider_config
.
Best practice: Your provider should not require provider-specific configuration to function, if possible. Vagrant practices a strong convention over configuration philosophy. When a user installs your provider, they should ideally be able to vagrant up --provider=your_provider
and have it just work.
Parallelization
Vagrant supports parallelizing some actions, such as vagrant up
, if the provider explicitly supports it. By default, Vagrant will not parallelize a provider.
When parallelization is enabled, multiple actions may be run in parallel. Therefore, providers must be certain that their action stacks are thread-safe. The core of Vagrant itself (such as box collections, SSH, etc.) is thread-safe.
Providers can explicitly enable parallelization by setting the parallel
option on the provider component:
provider("my_cloud", parallel: true) do
require_relative "provider"
Provider
end
That is the only change that is needed to enable parallelization.

"Hello, my name is Ross and this is my review." Man on the Moon
By Ross Anthony
Don't arrive late, the five minute introduction is marvelously unique and quintessentially Kaufman. The entertaining film that follows, though documentary in nature ... "is not an historical biography and it's not always faithful to the facts," director Milos Forman admits (in the press notes) "It is, however, always faithful to the spirit of the facts."
Jim Carrey portrays the eccentric, controversial comic Andy Kaufman (1949-1984) who charmed audiences with his Latka character on the 1970's sitcom "Taxi," shocked millions with his disruptive antics on the live-taped "Fridays," baffled all of us with his incitingly sexist challenges to wrestle women on TV, and finally left us in 1984 wondering if his death was just another prank. Robin Williams once referred to Kaufman as the "kamikaze of comedians" because he didn't care if he bombed.
Carrey, once known as the "man with the rubber face" for his ability to actually look like the celebrities he imitated, can't shake off the fame surrounding his own. That said, Carrey is absolutely rock solid conveying the Andy Kaufman persona in voice and eye movement. He never falters. Even though he looks like Jim Carrey, this is not a Jim Carrey movie. Critics of Carrey's acting ability won't be able to ignore this disciplined performance.
Danny DeVito (responsible for the film's conception and realization) leads us through the production while portraying George Shapiro (Andy's agent). In the "Taxi" sequences, only original cast members appear (though DeVito's Louie character is conveniently elsewhere). Especially with DeVito in a lead role along with wrestler Jerry Lawler's cameos (he does a fine job, by the way), this lends a warm, friendly, sentimental feel to the film for those of us who knew the "TV" Kaufman. It also serves to reassure us that the film's portrayal of this enigmatic comedian is authentic. Lastly, it appends to the memory of Andy, a sense of family and belated forgiveness for pulling our legs and yanking our chains.
Courtney Love's performance as Lynne Margulies (who was on the set virtually everyday) confirms her talent as an actress, making the transition from the rock world with more grace than, personally, I'd have expected.
The film sheds light on the mysteriously odd death of Andy Kaufman, but can't resist casting a shadow of a doubt on its audience during a slightly unnecessary last scene. Ultimately "Man on the Moon" is a strong film, unique and enlightening; even after the many Kaufman documentaries released in anticipation of it. As for those of you unfamiliar with Andy's work I'd be very curious to hear your reaction to this film (email@rossanthony.com).
"Thank you very much."

We need more staff for the NHS, but not from the poorest countries
by LettersClinicians are putting our faith in the next government to get to grips with the workforce crisis, writes Prof Andrew Goddard. At present the UK is employing over 7,000 doctors from the 57 poorest countries, writes Rachel Jenkins
It’s exasperating that when NHS staff are buckling under significant workforce shortages and growing patient need, one government department continues to ignore a quick win that could alleviate that pressure and improve patient care. (‘No-brainer’ plans to allow more foreign doctors into UK blocked by the Home Office, 4 November).
Clinicians are putting our faith in the next government to get to grips with the health and care workforce crisis. Time after time the stats show just how short of staff we really are, but anyone working on the frontline will tell you the real situation is even worse.
The next government must deliver for hardworking and dedicated NHS staff. We need to double the number of medical students and rapidly increase the numbers of doctors, nurses and other clinicians in training, while also creating an environment where our people are valued, recognised and rewarded.

President, Royal College of Physicians
• Your article fails to consider the impact of the loss of those doctors on the source countries. The UK already employs over 66,000 doctors from outside the EU, mostly from low- and middle-income countries (LAMIC), which have much lower doctor-to-population ratios than our own, and whose populations suffer a much greater disease burden. Thus despite decades of medical training schemes in LAMIC, Africa still has only 1.3% of the global health workforce and 25% of the disease burden. The numbers returning to their source countries after specialist training in the UK is extremely small – only 175 over the last five years.
The UK is a signatory to the World Health Organization code of practice on the international recruitment of health personnel 2010, which recommends that member states discourage active recruitment from LAMICs facing critical shortages of health workers (and never recruits from the 57 poorest countries), and create their own sustainable health workforce.
At present the UK is employing over 7,000 doctors from the 57 poorest countries. It is time to stop behaving like a plumber who, when called to mend a burst pipe, instead pours in more water, and indeed acquires such water from countries suffering extreme drought. The UK has unfilled medical posts because of a very high rate of premature retirement across all age groups, and it is this issue that needs to be tackled, together with further expansion of UK medical training, rather than continuing to damage health systems in LAMIC.

MLA inaugurates anganwadi building
Children were made to sit in a community hall for three years
by Staff ReporterMADURAI
Madurai (Central) MLA P.T.R.P. Thiagarajan inaugurated an anganwadi building, constructed at a cost of ₹8.70 lakh under the MLA Constituency Development Fund, at Poonga Nagar (ward 14) here on Monday.
The need for a new anganwadi arose as the children were made to sit in an old community hall for the past three years. “The children were moved to the community hall as the old anganwadi building was in a dilapidated condition,” said Krishnaveni, who is in-charge of the anganwadi.
Inaugurating the 66th project supported by his Constituency Development Fund, Mr. Thiagarajan said, “Anganwadis play an important role in providing nutrition to the poorer sections of society. But sadly most of the anganwadis are now functioning in dilapidated buildings.” He was planning to inaugurate at least seven more anganwadis in his constituency, he added.
A total of 15 children are enrolled in the facility, which also provides nutrition supplements to seven pregnant women.
Paintings depicting the ancient Keeladi civilisation and the artefacts unearthed there adorn the walls of the new building.
Mr. Thiagarajan also distributed slates and sweets to the children.

This package contains a program that reads a show file, and transforms all image assets to a mosaic. It does this using a fairly brute-force "first fit" algorithm that's almost certainly non-optimal, but is sufficient at least to demonstrate the concept of a mosaic. When run, this program produces a modified set of assets to be used with the show file. The show file itself doesn't need to be modified, because a "map" file is produced that maps the filename of the original image to a set of coordinates within a matrix file. Just package up the map file and the matrixes, and leave out the original images in the disc image.
This is a build-time tool that runs with the JDK. It requires parts of the GRIN library to run, so you should probably just build the whole thing. In order to test this with Ryan's Life, you can try something like this:
rm -rf build/classes/compiled_assets java -Xmx512m -cp build/classes com.hdcookbook.grin.build.mosaic.Main \ -assets /com/hdcookbook/grin/test/assets/ \ -show ryan_show.txt \ -out build/classes/compiled_assets java -cp build/classes com.hdcookbook.grin.test.bigjdk.GrinTestRyan \ -assets /com/hdcookbook/grin/test/assets/ -assets /compiled_assets \ -imagemap images.map
In your application, you need to tell GRIN where the image map file
is. For debugging purposes, It's sometimes handy to set an xlet up so
that it will work with either the discrete images or the mosaic, to
speed build times. In the HD cookbook menu, I did this, right after
setting AssetFinder
's search path:
if (AssetFinder.tryURL("images.map") != null) { if (Debug.LEVEL > 0) { Debug.println("Found images.map, using mosaic."); } AssetFinder.setImageMap("images.map"); } else if (Debug.LEVEL > 0) { Debug.println("No images.map, not using mosaic."); }
As of this writing, the mosaic construction algorithm isn't highly optimized, and the mosaic image can only be in PNG. Some players decode JPEG faster than PNG, but JPEG doesn't support alpha and you have to worry about setting the quality of JPEG output if you go that route. This tool presently doesn't have a way of grouping related images together, which would be important for managing image loading and unloading if you can't just keep everything in memory.


I specialise in value focused digital transformation. My work spans enterprise and startups in financial services, automotive, transportation and logistics, retail, UK government and healthcare.
I believe that “digital” is much more than technology - it’s about applying the culture, practices, processes & technologies of the Internet-era to respond to people’s raised expectations.*
I work with organisations to help them become digital businesses. This often means redesigning the organisation and it’s services, and introducing ways of working that are second-nature to digital native businesses.
I am fascinated with emergent tech and its impact on society. I currently live in Sweden with my wife and beautiful daughters Erin and Erika.

Reports any synchronized
block which locks on an object which is initialized with a literal.
String literals are interned and Character, Boolean and Number literals can be allocated from a cache.
Because of this, it is possible that some other part of the system
which uses an object initialized with the same literal, is actually holding a
reference to the exact same object. This can create unexpected dead-lock situations,
if the lock object was thought to be private.
Use the checkbox below to warn on any synchronization on String, Character, Boolean and Number objects.

We’ve recently read Thinking, Fast and Slow in the book club at work. The book took its toll in the form of everybody except three people giving up sooner or later, and I’ll admit that I found it hard work to get through: I’d have to highlight while reading, and then write a short summary for each chapter, or everything would be a total blur after a few weeks.
I’m not going to summarize the book—there are a lot of summaries out there already—and I’m not really going to review it (see Goodreads for more than 9000 reviews in English alone). Instead, I want to summarize my concrete takeaways.
Chapter 4 (“The Associative Machine”) talks about an “honesty box” that was set up in a university kitchen: people put money in it for the milk they took. Next to the box was a picture, and the observation was that the amount left per litre of milk increased when there was a poster with eyes on the wall (as opposed to, say, flowers). The context is “priming”.
At work, I’m sometimes annoyed when people leave their dirty dishes in the sink (or I used to be, before working from home full-time). I always wanted to put up a picture of a security camera as a tongue-in-cheek reminder, and the experiment seems to confirm that this kind of thing would actually have a measurable impact.
The takeaway would be to put up such a picture for real; I’ll revisit next year, I guess!
In Chapter 7 (“A Machine for Jumping to Conclusions”), the Halo effect is discussed; an example is judging essays, where the quality of the first essay by a student would affect how the second one would be judged. Kahneman describes how he adopted a new procedure where he’d judge all first answers, then all second answers, and made sure to not see how the first one was graded when looking at the second one.
A side effect of this was feeling less confident about the grading.
My takeaway: when soliciting ideas in a meeting or discussing a candidate after an interview, everybody should write down what they want to say first; otherwise, the first statement is going to bias all others.
Chapter 12 (“The Science of Availability”) has an example where couples were asked how much they think they contribute to doing household chores, and the answers always summed up to more than 100% per couple.
I know of 100% of the instances where I did something (because I was there), but I’m going to miss work others did—I shouldn’t assume it didn’t happen just because I’m not aware of it.
People are poor judges when evaluating complex information; as per Chapter 21 (“Intuition vs. Formulas”), simple algorithms perform better than experts. There are great examples with an algorithm that predicts wine prices based on a few weather inputs, and the Apgar test to assess if the breathing of a newborn should be considered normal or not.
Applied to interviews, the recommendation is to use a list of qualities desired in a candidate with associated questions each, and the interviewer should more or less just go through these questions. If the interviewer does not make the final decision on hire / no hire, they can be allowed to add a summary judgment, which can be given quite some weight; if they make the decision, they should only use the list of questions.
People overestimate how good they are at something something because they substitute that assessment by how comfortable they feel doing it; this results in everybody thinking they’re an above average driver, or many movie releases falling on the same weekend (Chapter 24, “The Engine of Capitalism”).
Optimism can help with resilience, and in some cases, falsehoods are preferred to honest uncertainties (from a doctor, for example); it can also lead to entrepreneurs continuing their efforts even when they have been told reliably that their chances are bad.
The premortem is a method to remedy the planning fallacy somewhat: when close to a decision, people should describe how, one year in the future, the plan completely and utterly failed. This can overcome groupthink, legitimize doubt, and uncover threats.
When faced with a gamble, people tend to prefer a guaranteed gain of less than the expected value over the risk of not getting anything at all (Chapter 31, “Risk Policies”).
Instead, one should prefer the gamble if the expected value is higher—over the course of many gambles, they’ll approximate their expected values. The gambles should satisfy these conditions:
A concrete application of this is checking one’s investments infrequently, for example just once a quarter.
I found a few more parts very interesting, but couldn’t translate them to something concrete enough to be considered a “takeaway”.
This is discussed in Chapter 26 (“Prospect Theory”); the fear of losing $100 is stronger than the hope of gaining $150. A takeaway could be that if you want somebody to want something, instead of telling them how great the thing is, you give it to them and then take it away again—like a car salesperson letting you test drive a car all by yourself.
How something is remembered is dominated by its most extreme moment and its end (Chapter 35, “Two Selves”). An example is how pain is remembered: longer duration of the pain overall is preferable to shorter with a painful end.
And there you have it! Six concrete things to actually do.

◆ discard_data_segment()
template<typename ser_typ >
One of the actions taken when the state machine is tasked to obtain the payload data. This function represents the action to discard the payload data. (Run for message types that are not supported, or not implemented, where the data does not concern us)
One byte of serial data is read in, and subsequently discarded.
- Note
- Increments the message_data_received variable.
Alters one variable of non-local scope
◆ get_widget_parameters_acq_data()
template<typename ser_typ >
◆ obtain_data_bytes()
template<typename ser_typ >
◆ obtain_end_byte()
template<typename ser_typ >
Processor state machine function. Checks that the next incoming byte is indeed the end delimiter byte.
No matter the validity of the next incoming byte as a end delimiter byte, the state machine is reset.
- Note
- Alters the state of the state machine
- Precondition
- The state machine has already acquired a the payload of the message
- Postcondition
- The state machine is now waiting a start byte again
- Return values
-
| true | A valid message has been received |
| false | A non-valid message was received |
◆ obtain_length_bytes()
template<typename ser_typ >
Processor state machine function. Reads in the next two length bytes, and checks that the resulting length value derived from those two bytes is valid.
- Note
- The message_data_length variable is also updated with this received length value.
If the payload length is not valid, the state machine is reset. Otherwise, the state machine is advanced, such that it is now acquiring the payload of the message.
- Note
- Alters the state of the state machine, and updates one variable of non-local scope.
- Precondition
- The state machine has already acquired the label byte
- Postcondition
- The state machine is now acquiring the payload of the message
◆ obtain_start_byte()
template<typename ser_typ >
Processor state machine function. Checks that the next incoming byte is indeed the start byte.
If the next incoming byte is not the start byte, the state machine is reset, such that it waits for a start byte again.
- Note
- Alters the state of the state machine
- Precondition
- The state machine has been reset
- Postcondition
- The state machine is now waiting for the type byte (label byte in ENTTEC nomenclature)
◆ obtain_type_byte()
template<typename ser_typ >
Processor state machine function. Stores the next incoming value as the type byte.
- Note
- The message_label value is updated with this type byte.
Alters the state of the state machine, and updates one variable of non-local scope.
- Precondition
- The state machine has already acquired a start byte
- Postcondition
- The state machine is now waiting for the two length bytes
◆ operator[]()
template<typename ser_typ >
Obtains the DMX data value for a particular DMX channel.
- Parameters
-
| [in] | c | the DMX channel to obtain the DMX data value for |
- Warning
- Bounds checking is not performed. If RAM storage has not been reserved for this DMX channel's data, then the access may result in a dereference of an invalid pointer.
- Returns
- DMX data value [0,255] for that particular DMX channel
◆ process()
template<typename ser_typ >
Processes the incoming packet stream from the Host PC and returns events based on the processed packets.
- Warning
- This function must be called regularly in order to prevent a communications buffer overflow, which may result in lost packets. This is because this library does not handle any packet processing in the background. Any packet processing is done synchronously. Users may wish to implement asynchronous functionality themselves.
- Return values

Disaster at Costco:
A Tutorial on When to Use an Array or a Hash ... TO SAVE YOUR LIFE!!!
Arrays and hashes are both objects in Ruby that that primarily used for storing data. Their difference lies in how they retrieve data, which we will explore using my weekly shopping list of: fish, yogurt, and milk--yes. yes. I know, milk was a bad choice.
An array pairs each piece of information stored in it with an integer index value. For example, I want to store my shopping list as strings: "fish," "yogurt," "milk," you could do so in an array by doing the follow. Please note that an array can store any Ruby object: strings, integers, floats, other arrays, hashes, etc.
shopping_list = ["fish", "yogurt", "milk"]Now each item in your array has a unique index number based on its current position. In this case they are as follows:
shopping_list = ["fish", "yogurt", "milk"] 0 1 2Arrays use a base-0 counting system, so instead of "fish" being the first item it is the zeroth item in your list. If I want to call one of my items I can simply say:
puts shopping_list[1] "yogurt"Now with an array you can change the order of the items in your list using numerous of different methods and paramters. For the sake of this example we will use the .sort! method. When we don't give it any paramters it is going to sort our items alphabetically (for integers it will change the order from smallest to largest).
shopping_list.sort! puts food ["fish", "milk", "yogurt"]Now be careful! Fish still has an index position of 0, but now when I call food[1] ruby is going to return "milk" not "yogurt." Lesson: If you change the order of your array you will need to know the new index numbers to call our desired item--Ruby won't remember it for you! This concept is particularly important when you begin to add and remove items from your array. Adding items at the beginning (ex. array method .unshift("what you want to add") will push back all of your previous entries by one.
Which is a nice segue into hashes. Say you want to store a bunch of items but you don't really care about the order. Or maybe when you retrieve them you don't want to have to know its arbitrary integer index value. Maybe it makes more sense to call it based on some other attribute. Meet hashes!
Hashes perform the same function as arrays insofar as they store information, but instead of index values, each value you enter (think of this as the item you want to store--it can be any Ruby object that you'd like) is associated with a key (this is analogous to the integer index number in array except that this key can be any ruby object you'd like).
So let's go back to my shopping list. While an array was a pretty simple way to hold that information and look at it all together, the index values don't actually add any functionality to my list, but a hash could. Let's say, I shop at Costco, which is huge! So when I pull up my shopping list on my phone, I want it to show me all of the things that I want to buy in the department of the store that I'm in so that I don't have to double back--though if I do I could probably pick up some more samples.  Not even for more food. Does Costco deliver? So... I'm going to make a hash, but arrange my values with keys based on the departments in the store.
shopping_list = { "meat" => "fish" "dairy" => ["yogurt", "eggs"] }What I did here was put an array (the square brackets) as one of the values in my new hash (the curly brackets). The object before the little rocket arrow is the KEY (or what I'm going to use to call on my item) and the object after the arrow is the VALUE--the key-value system that I mentioned earlier. Now when I call on my hash in the meat department:
puts shopping_list["meat"] "fish"Yes! It reminds me to buy fish. But in the dairy department???
puts shopping_list["dairy"] ["yogurt", "milk"]Also great! It reminds me that I want to buy yogurt AND milk! We could work on the Ruby so that it would display what I want in the dairy department without the square brackets, but for now it's just a shopping list, so we don't care. And this is a blog post about the difference between hashes and arrays, not a beauty school, so we doubly don't care!
So next time you want to store multiple items in ruby, take a second to stop and think about how using an array versus a hash is going to add meaning and functionality to your storage system. There are certainly many cases where it's just not going to matter that much. And if you're feeling really indecisive you can make a hash where each key is just an integer. But I've found that more often than not, either an array or hash is going to make more sense based on how you want to retrieve your information and what you want to do with it once its stored.

A simple stereo-panning implementation
The Stereo suite (stereoActor, stereoHand, stereoAlg) implements a basic
stereo panning algorithm and its associated handler and actor. Stereo
inputs are panned such that both channels will get sent "hard right" if
the pan position is hard right, and such that the channels remain unaltered
and separated if the pan position is dead center. (The input channels
are processed separately, not merely summed.)
Note that all Generator Actors understand the SetPan message. If you just
want to pan around a monophonic source, use that instead of the
StereoActor. The StereoActor is intended for panning sounds,
particularly stereo sounds, into a two-channel stream
which other Processor Actors will modify.
To use this stereo implementation,
load stereo.so and create an actor of type StereoActor.
StereoActor messages
In addition to the messages understood by all generator actors, the StereoActor understands the following messages:
- SetPan hActor x
- Set the default pan position for new instances
created by this actor to x (-1 to +1 is hard left to hard right).
- SetAllPan hActor x time
- Set the pan position of all children to x
(-1 to +1 is hard left to hard right),
and set the default pan position for all future children.
If time is specified, children will modulate to the new pan
position over the specified duration. Default pan position is always
set immediately regardless of time.
StereoActor handler messages
In addition to the messages understood by all handlers, the handler for
the stereo algorithm understands the following messages:
- SetInput hSound hHandler
- Set the input to come from the handler hHandler.
- SetPan hSound x time
- Set the pan position to x
(-1 to +1 is hard left to hard right). If
time is specified, move to the new pan position over the
specified duration.

AutoKeras is an open source software library for automated machine learning (AutoML). It is developed by DATA Lab at Texas A&M University and community contributors. The ultimate goal of AutoML is to provide easily accessible deep learning tools to domain experts with limited data science or machine learning background. AutoKeras provides functions to automatically search for architecture and hyperparameters of deep learning models.
Check out the AutoKeras blogpost at the RStudio TensorFlow for R blog.
Install the current released version of autokeras from CRAN:
install.packages("autokeras")
Or install the development version from GitHub:
if (!require("remotes")) {
install.packages("remotes")
}
remotes::install_github("r-tensorflow/autokeras")
Then, use the install_autokeras()
function to install TensorFlow:
autokeras
R package has a configured Docker image.
Steps to run it:
From a bash console:
docker pull jcrodriguez1989/r-autokeras:1.0.0
docker run -it jcrodriguez1989/r-autokeras:1.0.0 /bin/bash
To run the docker image, and share the current folder (in home machine) to the /data
path (in the docker machine), then do:
docker run -it -v ${PWD}:/data jcrodriguez1989/r-autokeras:1.0.0 /bin/bash
ls /data # once when the docker image is running

Now that we have made basic game engine, our next assignment is to choose a complex system and implement it. The topics suggested are:
FMOD looks to be the favored audio tool, they are also based in the same building as us, used in a number of AAA Games (World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and more) and GameEngines (eg. Unity and Unreal4).
The only issue I have had so far is that the only documentation/examples are from FMOD themselves. Their documentation and examples are very good but there are some topics I cannot find much on. So far the main issue I was having was the use of the Geometry engine built into FMOD, although through a lot of trial and error I have managed to get a cube around a sound source. With this geometry, we can control occlusion and reverberation through floating point values, the aim is to create a second unseen mesh on an object that can stop/slow sound (eg. a wall, glass pane).
Well all this would be lovely to have, we only have a few more weeks until it is due and I am still trying to fully figure out FMOD. I am having a lot of fun with this already so I am sure I will be able to get plenty done with it.

Fast Analysis of Spectra Made Automatically
EW driver
Measuring EWs from a spectrum using a line list using ARES.
The results will be send by email after the script is done running. This may take a few minutes.
The script is running when you press submit.
Please be patient.


Geometry builder lets you create your models from nodes with specified coordinates and coordinate systems. It supports 2D and 3D primitives such as lines, planes, cylinders and boxes of different shapes. Large node patterns can be generated automatically by using the geometry wizard.
Data can be acquired in experiments or imported from uff. Operational and experimental modal analysis are supported through the options of different excitations signals, such as impulse or random. National Instruments hardware is supported out of the box.
Modal parameters are identified by a process of curve fitting that is used to estimate the poles (natural frequencies and damping ratios). The LSCF and LSCE methods are available.
Measured and analyzed data can be visualized and animated revealing information about the dynamics of the structure. Each identified or measured mode is visualized based on the frequency-response spectrum.
OpenModal is built using established libraries such as Numpy, pandas, pyqtgraph, scipy and others. All the data, from measurement and analysis, is kept in pandas dataframes, which can be read and modified freely. New analysis methods can be implemented with ease to take the advantage of the visualization, measurement and analysis framework. In this way, OpenModal can be used a platform for fast implementation of latest state-of-art routines.
The OpenModal project spawned the development of Python libraries that may be useful for other projects related to signal processing, structural analysis and measurement. We will continue to provide standalone libraries when parts of OpenModal grow mature enough. So far, the following Python libraries have been made available on PyPI and on Gihtub.
Subscribe to our newsletter and be notified of new developments, such as the future releases of OpenModal or when new libraries are available. Be sure to let us know if you are interested in contributing to the code base. You can also send us an e-mail.


A closer look
Chrome now lets you use Google Lens when searching images
It appears to be for the mobile browser only.
by Jason EnglandWhat you need to know
- Google has integrated Lens with the Chrome browser on smartphones.
- It allows you to now scan images using Lens from within Chrome.
- You may have to manually enable it.
Google Lens is an incredibly useful tool when trying to identify something found in an image. As such, Google has made it a point to integrate it into as many different apps as possible. We've seen it added to Assistant, Google Photos, and it can even be found in the camera app on many phones.
Now, Google has taken it even further by adding Lens to the Chrome browser on smartphones. Although, you may have to manually enable the feature before you can use it, at least I know I did. You can do this by typing "chrome://flags" and searching for "lens." From there, you can use the drop-down menu to enable the feature.
Source: Android Central
Afterward, you'll need to relaunch Chrome for it to take effect and then you can begin using Lens from within the Chrome browser. You'll know it worked if you see the option to "Search with Google Lens" instead of "Search Google for this image" after long-pressing on an image.
Source: Android Central
This is a big improvement over the previous search by image option, because now you'll not only get results for similar images, but Lens can also identify what's in the image. For example, using it on this image of several breeds of dogs, Lens was able to identify the breeds as well as find related images. You even have the option to manually crop in on something in the image if Lens fails to identify it automatically.
The Google Lens flag is currently available for all stable versions of Chrome. Just make sure you're updated and running the latest version and you'll be able to enable it and start using it for yourself.


Teamwork is so important that it is virtually impossible for you
to reach the heights of your capabilities or make the money that
you want without becoming very good at it.
A group becomes a team when each member is sure enough of
himself and his contribution to praise the skill of the others.
No one can whistle a symphony. It takes an orchestra to play it.
The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength
of each member is the team. If you can laugh together, you can
work together, silence isn’t golden, it’s deadly.


Creating the Enterprise Bean
The enterprise bean in our example is a stateless session bean called ConverterBean. The source code for ConverterBean is in the tut-install/examples/ejb/converter/src/java/ directory.
Creating ConverterBean requires these steps:
Coding the bean’s implementation class (the source code is provided)
Compiling the source code
Coding the Enterprise Bean Class
The enterprise bean class for this example is called ConverterBean. This class implements two business methods: dollarToYen and yenToEuro. Because the enterprise bean class doesn’t implement a business interface, the enterprise bean exposes a local, no-interface view. The public methods in the enterprise bean class are available to clients that obtain a reference to ConverterBean. The source code for the ConverterBean class is as follows:
package converter.ejb; import java.math.BigDecimal; import javax.ejb.*; @Stateless public class ConverterBean { private BigDecimal yenRate = new BigDecimal("83.0602"); private BigDecimal euroRate = new BigDecimal("0.0093016"); public BigDecimal dollarToYen(BigDecimal dollars) { BigDecimal result = dollars.multiply(yenRate); return result.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP); } public BigDecimal yenToEuro(BigDecimal yen) { BigDecimal result = yen.multiply(euroRate); return result.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP); } }
Note the @Stateless annotation decorating the enterprise bean class. This annotation lets the container know that ConverterBean is a stateless session bean.
Creating the converter Web Client
The web client is contained in the following servlet class:
tut-install/examples/ejb/converter/src/java/converter/web/ConverterServlet.java
A Java servlet is a web component that responds to HTTP requests.
The ConverterServlet class uses dependency injection to obtain a reference to ConverterBean. The javax.ejb.EJB annotation is added to the declaration of the private member variable converterBean, which is of type ConverterBean. ConverterBean exposes a local, no-interface view, so the enterprise bean implementation class is the variable type:
@WebServlet public class ConverterServlet extends HttpServlet { @EJB ConverterBean converterBean; ... }
When the user enters an amount to be converted to yen and euro, the amount is retrieved from the request parameters; then the ConverterBean.dollarToYen and the ConverterBean.yenToEuro methods are called:
... try { String amount = request.getParameter("amount"); if (amount != null && amount.length() > 0) { // convert the amount to a BigDecimal from the request parameter BigDecimal d = new BigDecimal(amount); // call the ConverterBean.dollarToYen() method to get the amount // in Yen BigDecimal yenAmount = converter.dollarToYen(d); // call the ConverterBean.yenToEuro() method to get the amount // in Euros BigDecimal euroAmount = converter.yenToEuro(yenAmount); ... } ... }
The results are displayed to the user.
Building, Packaging, Deploying, and Running the converter Example
Now you are ready to compile the enterprise bean class (ConverterBean.java) and the servlet class (ConverterServlet.java) and to package the compiled classes into a WAR file.
To Build, Package, and Deploy the converter Example in NetBeans IDE
- From the File menu, choose Open Project.
- In the Open Project dialog, navigate to:
tut-install/examples/ejb/
- Select the converter folder.
- Select the Open as Main Project and Open Required Projects check boxes.
- Click Open Project.
- In the Projects tab, right-click the converter project and select Deploy.
A web browser window opens the URL http://localhost:8080/converter.
To Build, Package, and Deploy the converter Example Using Ant
- In a terminal window, go to:
tut-install/examples/ejb/converter/
- Type the following command:
ant all
This command calls the default task, which compiles the source files for the enterprise bean and the servlet, placing the class files in the build subdirectory (not the src directory) of the project. The default task packages the project into a WAR module: converter.war. For more information about the Ant tool, see Building the Examples.
Note - When compiling the code, the ant task includes the Java EE API JAR files in the classpath. These JARs reside in the modules directory of your GlassFish Server installation. If you plan to use other tools to compile the source code for Java EE components, make sure that the classpath includes the Java EE API JAR files.
To Run the converter Example
- Open a web browser to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/converter
The Servlet ConverterServlet page opens.
- Type 100 in the input field and click Submit.
A second page opens, showing the converted values.

Now I got it! If you want the output of PHP and that of Javascript to be same, use utf16to8 and utf8to16 function for javascript for javascript's string represents as utf16.
Jacob Lee

Seems to me it does work differently from PHP's when the text has multibyte character inside.
example)
in php
echo base64_encode(utf8_encode('this is the text and 한글')); // Korean characters inside
in Javascript
document.write(base64_encode(utf8_encode('this is the text and 한글)));
the php result is not the same with javascript result.

I tried this function with german umlauts ('ä') and didn't get it working. I have a login form on a UTF-8 page and must convert the user input data to ISO-8859-1 before submitting (the target server only accepts ISO-8859-1).
The conversion is done, but the login fails because of wrong credentials (due to the "ä" in the password field).
Is there a problem with converting data from user input fields?

This entire function can be replaced with the following.
function utf8_decode (str_data) {
return unescape(encodeURIComponent(str_data));
}
Brett Zamir

By the way, if you change the functions to avoid String.fromCharCode() and charCodeAt(), and just deal with an array of numbers, you can convert between the character sets more efficiently (unless you need to print to string format).

@Chris Ahrweiler: Are you sure you are using it correctly?
Please note that these functions in php.js are not related to whether the current page itself is in UTF-8 or not; JavaScript always uses UTF-16 internally.
As a little background if you weren't aware, JavaScript internally uses two-bytes to represent every character (or four bytes in some extremely rare characters--surrogate pairs which are two pseudo-characters joined together to form a single character but whose string length is 2). UTF-8, on the other hand, uses 1-4 bytes for each character, while ISO-8859-1 uses exactly 1 byte (it can do that because is far more limited, in handling only Latin characters). UTF-8 uses 1-2 bytes for the same range as ISO-8859-1 (1 bytes for the ASCII); the reason it must use 2 bytes in some cases, even though Unicode assigns the same code points as used in in ISO-8859-1, is because one of the bits in a UTF-8 byte is reserved for indicating whether the byte is a single 1-byte sequence or part of a multi-byte sequence.
So, in order to represent UTF-8 in JavaScript (and even ISO-8859-1), we are forced with either using an array of code points, where each number represents the value for a single byte, or using a string where each character has the code point value of a single byte.
Internally, JavaScript will use two bytes (or rarely 4 bytes), but we can use its strings to represent a sequence of single byte characters (ISO-8859-1) or a sequence of 1-4 byte character sequences (UTF-8). (If you put the text in an alert, our "UTF-8" will not be human-readable, while our "ISO-8859-1" will be.)
In JavaScript you can easily discover what the UTF-8 sequence for a character should be by using encodeURIComponent. For the sharp-S, it gives "%C3%9F", which, translated into a multiple single-byte string sequence is "\u00C3\u009F" or, more visually, "Ã\u009F".
In ISO-8859-1, it should simply be "\u00DF" or "ß".
In other words, we can treat regular JavaScript as though it were ISO-8859-1 since both have a fixed correspondence between a character and number of bytes (ISO-8859-1 is 1-to-1 while UTF-16 is 1 to 2, unless for rare (and non-Latin) characters not present in ISO-8859-1 where the correspondence is 1-to-4; 4-byte characters are necessary in some cases since even 2 bytes is not enough to represent all of the scripts supported by Unicode).
So, "utf8_decode" would only be used if you already have a string of characters in this artificial "UTF-8" where each "character" has up to a full byte of value (0-255)--representing a single byte in a UTF-8 1-4 byte sequence.
"utf8_encode", on the other hand, would let you encode a ISO-8859-1 string (or Latin UTF-16 strings) into such an artificial "UTF-8" sequence of 1-2 byte sequences.
If the above doesn't help, feel free to clarify exactly what you are trying to do and why.

@Walessio: The declaration was already there (and for some more variables too), but I think the syntax highlighter doesn't accurately insert newlines, so when you copy-paste, it doesn't always preserve them. To be safer, just paste from the "raw js source" link.
@Kevin, I think here's some proof that it'd be better to go back to the old commenting system... The function shows the declaration, but when people copy-paste it, some lines get merged into comments, etc. Sorry for all of these "unfunded" requests... :)

I am afraid there is a problem with this function. Try to convert "à" that is multibyte character. "str_data.length" equals "1" (char) since javascript is UTF-8 compliant. But C1 = 224 that is > 128 and you end up playing with C2 and C3 that don't even exist :-) Here is the code I propose. It simply translates the string from UTF-8 to iso-8859-15 (improved from iso-8859-1) with a translation table for all non ASCII characters. Let me know what you think. Thanks, MC.
function utf8_decode (utf8) {
// control characters are left for alignment reasons, they will not be used anyway!
var i, iso885915 = '',
utf8ToIso885915 = {

@ Ben Pettit: There has been some talk about it over at the utf8_encode function. Let's work it out over there, and then - if needed - we'll fix utf8_decode accordingly.

This function had troubles with the utf8_encode function when i included the transport.min.js file into my adobe javascript plugin, while using the md5 function.
The way i fixed it was by adding as the first line:
str_data = str_data.valueOf();
Thanks for the great open source library! I'm just trying to give back a little bit.
Cheers,
Ben.

@ Tim de Koning: thx for helping out man!
@ Otto Wyss: Can you confirm this?

@otto
PHP
utf8_encode('Sihlhölzli')
returns 'SihlhÃ¶lzli'
JAVASCRIPT
utf8_decode('SihlhÃ¶lzli');
returns 'Sihlhölzli'
Seems fine to me...?

I've a folder name "Sihlhölzli" which I utf8_encode on the server with PHP. This gives me "Sihlh\u00f6lzli" and if it's displayed by the browser it nicely shows "Sihlhölzli". Of course I can't use this name to load an image therefore use the utf8_decode in Javascript to decode the name. Unfortunately that doesn't work, not even the browser can display it. Any idea whats wrong?

There is an error in this function on the following line
} else if ((c1 > 191) && (c < 224)) {
it should be c1<224

@ Aman Gupta: Thanks I've updated all of the base64 & utf functions based on your findings.

This implementation is extremely slow in IE due to string concatenation. It is much faster to push onto an array and return array.join('').


Dart Programming Language Tutorial Part 1 | Series Introduction
Aug 27, 2018 20:15 · 436 words · 3 minute read
A general introduction to my dart programming language tutorial series. The post contains what dart is, which topics I am going to cover here and future plans. So let’s dive right into the post.
A Gentle Introduction to Dart
I am starting a new series on dart programming language. In this series I would be covering everything about dart from scratch to advanced concepts. Dart is an object oriented programming language by google that came around 2011. If you are here, then most probably you want to learn dart to write flutter apps. In that case, I have got you covered. After this series, I will start a flutter series, however if you just wanted to learn dart as a programming language, I have got you covered too. Dart can be used to write web apps, server apps, cli apps etc and we will do some standalone dart projects too.
So what is dart? Dart is a object oriented programming language i.e. everything in dart is an object, it’s syntax is very similar to c++, java and I would also say javascript. It has reactive programming, async programming, concept of futures and streams inbuilt in it and is very fast and optimized.
So what are we going to cover in this series?
We are going to start with variables, comments, functions, operators, control flow etc which are basic building blocks of any program. Function will have some sub-topics of its own.
Then we will move on to some advanced topics such as classes, generics, async programming etc. Classes will have sub-topics such as constructors, inheritance etc, while constructors will in turn have some sub-topics. Then we will branch out and do some dart projects and start a flutter series. We have a long road ahead.
Local setup
We won’t be doing any local setup in this series. For our use case, we will use dartpad. That is a good enough online text editor for learning and practicing dart (i mean the dart lang). However we will setup our local development environment when we are getting into projects, and then we will download and install our local copy of dart.
There you go guys, you made it to the end of the blog.

[telegram] <BlackJackWasTaken> Supply is now x10 more
[telegram] <BlackJackWasTaken> Is komodo got hacked??
[telegram] <BlackJackWasTaken> Marketcap is now more than $500m
[telegram] <BlackJackWasTaken> Hacker already moved coins and he start dumping
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> What coin are you talking about?
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> KMD Market Cap is $84 145 400 and circulating supply is near 111M KMD ... as always ...
(edited)
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> 31 Jul 2018 - KMD supply was 108.6M, now it's 111M ... where you see x10? )
[telegram] <Black_Bush> Dont intertain him. He probably missed the train at 1755 sats now he is creating FUD for people to dump so he can buy cheap (re @OneGuyFromInternet: 31 Jul 2018 - KMD supply was 108.6M, now it's 111M ... where you see x10? ))
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> Is this FUD working? ) Every people with brain in head can visit coinmarketcap to see current supply or just get it using other methods / resources. It's a blockchain, "every step / move is recorded".
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> Funny try ... but it didn't work in 2019 )
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> Recent snapshots of blockchain is also available. Everybody can check balance of every address )
[telegram] <OneGuyFromInternet> And sum all addresses to calc total supply.
[telegram] <t0sma> Ask to magnum wallet Telegram. They will give you support. I'm using this wallet for. My kmd with nano s and it's works fine. (re @Fascro: Hello all,
maybe somebody can help me. Until now I secured my KMD with a Ledger Nano S. Due to the staking rewards I created today a Magnum Web Wallet and linked it with my Ledger.
The problem I have is that I reslized I am not able to send KMD. Everytime after I confirm the transaction on the Ledger, I receive following error message:
{ "error": {}, "data": "16: bad-txns-in-belowout. Code:-26" }
A friend send me some KMD for testing to my adress and it arrived. But it seems that my funds are frozen and I cannot move them.
Thanks in advance!)
[telegram] <BlackJackWasTaken> Hacker is double spending huge amounts of coins (re @OneGuyFromInternet: Is this FUD working? ) Every people with brain in head can visit coinmarketcap to see current supply or just get it using other methods / resources.
