Cut down, deliver early and often

By Matthew Smith

Deliver all the things

There’s idealistic people in the world and that’s fine (thanks for reading by the way :) ), and there’s pragmatic people, I want to go through how you can provide solutions that give a pragmatic approach to delivering value and doing it in a way that gets it done on time but still helps you get to your idealistic goals.

Often when sitting down and planning with senior management bods a feature list as long as your arm comes out, the reality is even if this is thought to be the bear minimum list, in reality it probably isn’t and is instead a bloated minimum, there’s always room to cut out features, so agree some prioritisation on the features and operate a bucket approach, one in one out.

After the features are agreed you can now start about delivering them, cutting where necessary.

Deadlines for Deadlines sake

When it comes to deadlines people take them a bit like marmite, you either love it or you hate it. Some people feel that having a deadline is a sure fire way of creating a bad product as corners are cut, others think that if you have a deadline you can at least work towards something with an end in sight rather than running off into the wild forever and ever.

To deliver the features needed it’s better to have a deadline, and one that stretches you and forces you to make some cuts, it’s not about not delivering or delivering badly it’s just about delivering what is needed, worse case scenario you have to deliver everything, but this way at least you do it in stages.

Certainly with a deadline you can help focus people on delivering what is important, I think sometimes people get caught up in trying to deliver everything perfectly for the deadline rather than delivering the value they already have. Some of my colleagues and mysef are currently working on a monitoring and metrics platform that integrates fully with nagios style checks but also allows you to write them in the web browser and test them on a server of your choice before distributing. The idea being that you can take the monitoring up to a real time level while reporting back business level reporting and everything in between so you have one place to go to to find out why something isn’t working and how well it has been doing, how many people have signed up; it’s a devops dashboard really.

Anyway, for a couple of months we have been identifying the core technologies and implementing various key functionality to the product but with at no point was any of it “working” some bits sort of worked but not quite, some bits just weren’t there. There was no real end date to this project as it’s something that will keep involving until it works and is useful however we need something to work towards and after a couple of months of sorting out the technology a deadline was set to do a demo and within a week we had the product up and working with the pages we needed with the correct functionality and everything working fine. Writing a nagios check on the fly, pushing it to the server distributing it to all the others and then reporting all in less than 30 seconds, wonderful.

I’m not saying what we did in that week was “production ready” but if our livelihood depended on it, it was good enough, and thats what being agile and lean is about. What is the least amount of work I can do to get me to the minimum product I need in the least amount of effort. The key is to obviously not get stuck delivering bear minimum all the time, with every sprint you need to improve upon what was there as well as add the new stuff; I think it is necessary to always fix something up when adding new features to get the product better and it certainly works for us.

Alternatively, of course, we could have not had a deadline and kept drifting aimlessly into the distance ensuring that the technology was “just right” all the time but the reality is we have to deliver something somewhere.

Iterate

Anyone that is familiar with Agile, Scrum, Extreme programming etc knows it’s better to deliver in small bite size pieces than in large chunks, you can provide value back to the business quicker and you focus on doing the task rather than doing it well. Not all tasks can be done by cutting a few corners but there’s normally a quick way, a good way and the right way fo doing it, so choose one and go for it, if it is a bit of angular that pulls down a list of plugins, go the quick way, if it’s a graphing engine that needs to draw lots of graphs and is used everywhere do it the right way; you’re sensible people, find a balance.

I’ve been talking all about software development which is where most of these methodologies come from, but they can be applied to systems administration as well, I think the same goes for sysadmins as it does programmers, they tend to get stuck in doing the best solution rather than the solution the business needs. Just to dispel any hopes and dreams, maybe save some time by realising that the business cares it works and is stable not how elegant or easy to maintain it is. So when coming up with a load balancing solution, maybe version 1 is haproxy with basic config and version 2 is a bit more in depth, version 3 is F5 & haproxy, version 4 is F5, haproxy and caching…. By all means have the hopes and dreams of the gold solution, but deliver the bronze one okay. If people really use the system and it provides more value iteratively make it better, maybe a bronze + a bit of silver, litle chunks, often.

Summary

Don’t get stuck in the end goal, think about what does the client really need or the business really need, bear minimum; deliver that, measure usage, iterate and improve.

Bash-off – a way to relieve your self

By Matthew Smith

Bash off!

In our team at work we have this concept which we call a “Bash off” the idea is simple. Take something that you could do very simply in bash in several steps with manual fudging in the middle to end up with a result. The sort of thing that may take you an hour to brute force your way through. Now in your programming language of choice, automate the entire process.

Sounds simple right ? I remember the first task we had which was to grab two unique columns of data and to stream them onto the screen, I think it was originally done with watch, tail and tee, took about 20 mins of playing with bash. As a team we chose our own languages and went for it, an hour later we all had a working prototype, another hour later we all had our programs really efficient.

Obviously these are really pointless, but they do have a couple of benefits that help a DevOps person stay good at what they do. It gets you to do more with your language of choice than you normally would and it also causes you to think about how you’re structuring code to make it more efficient, it also helps bond the team together with a bit of healthy competition.

To clarify just because it is called a bash off that dosen’t mean that a solution can’t be in bash. So if it was a very manual human process that you believe you can fully automate in bash, Go for it :)

The challenge

This weeks challenge came from our friends in finance, they have a spreadsheet with some 14k rows in it, two of the columns have many duplicated fields in them and the have a one to many mapping between them. So the challenge is to get from 14k rows down to just the unique entries in each of these two columns and to then make sure the mapping in the spreadsheet can be looked up from a database (where the spreadsheet results must end up)

Due to some meetings I was late to the game on this task, pesky meetings; we had a bash driven prototype which we excluded because it required the excel spreadsheet to be turned into a csv and a python one that sort of got some fields from the spreadsheet and pushed them into the DB.

This is where I picked it up, sort of working; I’ve not done a lot of python so I forked the code and me and my boss went our separate ways to achieve the task, in the end it took us a couple of hours to get this working and for us to have the same results. All in all it we had achieved the processing of 14k rows of data and the manipulation into a db with the correct data, but was that enough? No We decided that it taking about 1 min was not good enough so we started focusing on making it better, I think my run time was 58 seconds and my bosses 40.

We had both chosen different ways of doing it, I had chosen to use the DB to ensure the fields were unique by checking if that field existed in the DB and if not to create it and returned the id, if it was in the DB it would return the id. My bosses approach was better, he created lists with the data in and then made the lists unique. I decided I had to get mine down to a similar speed so I started hacking it around; I decided I would store the unique entries in a list for each table and then before calling the method that puts the data in the database I would check if that unique value was already there. The first issue with this is I lost the ID number which I needed to add to the lookup table so I had to change the list to a dictionary.

I also found by moving the commit messages for the database out side of any of the methods and just dropping it at the end saved a few seconds, I was also able to remove a couple of additional DB queries all of this helped bring the time down. One of the best changes I did was on the lookup table when doing a query only pulling back one ID, rather than two; I didn’t even need it but I couldn’t see a way of querying sql alchemy with out having a field to bring back that would be quick.

As the night progressed we both made good progress, my Boss got his down to 14.1 seconds I managed to get mine down to 21 seconds so we had both made massive improvements in our codes efficiency. My boss was making use of gevent but when I tried this it slowed my program down so I left it out not understanding it anyway. I kept pluggin away and I made it down to 13.5 seconds.

Summary

I urge you to take an afternoon out in your team and to push your skills forward with a programming challenge and to see what happens, it will make you better, you will learn stuff, it is fun, it does bond the team and you will enjoy it, it is also a waste of time but what else were you going to do ?

Yummy, Jira Jelly Escalations

By Matthew Smith

Who doesn’t like Jelly?

At work we have some SOC2 fun stuff to attend to, one of the areas that I’m looking at is incident management, we’ve been doing incident management and analysis of incidents for a while so this was really about formalising it all. We use a highly customisable ticketing system called Jira which is good at its job although getting to grips with its configuration can be tricky.

One of the areas we have to ensure process is followed is with escalation of incident tickets, our incident tickets are identified with an issue type of “Incident” and we have a special “incident priority” field which is simple P1, P2 or P3

Incident priority

So the challenge for us was how do we make sure that each tier of escalation gets notified and that it is clearly documented the ticket has been escalated?

This is where Jelly comes in, Jira has Jelly which is an XML defined way of doing programatic actions within Jira, a good link to open and read later will be this one all about Jira:Jelly and if like me who only found it afterwards these will be useful docs for Jelly: email http SOAP SQL core

Defining Filters

To get the escalations to work I used filters to show me all tickets that matched a certain pattern, so to do the first tier of escalation the filter looks for all tickets in the project and that are of the issue type “incident” and have an incident priority of “P1″ and are older than X mins. To stop this coming up more than once the filter was also given some extra parameters to only show when it wasn’t assigned to the current escalation person or one of the higher up escalations. If it was assigned to anyone else it would then be escalated.

project = PROJECTID AND issuetype = Incident AND
status in (Open, "In Progress", Reopened) AND
"Incident Priority" = P1 AND created <= -30m AND
assignee not in (escalation1, escalation2, escalation3)

I won’t explain this too much, but “PROJECTID” will be the short code for the project in jira, and the escalations at the end are the usernames of those in the escalation tiers.

Here’s tier 2 as well so you can see how it filters for the next tier:

project = PROJECTID AND issuetype = Incident AND
status in (Open, "In Progress", Reopened) AND
"Incident Priority" = P1 AND created <= -45m AND
assignee in (escalation1) AND
assignee not in (escalation2, escalation3)

and the third for completeness:

project = PROJECTID AND issuetype = Incident AND
status in (Open, "In Progress", Reopened) AND
"Incident Priority" = P1 AND created <= -75m AND
assignee in (escalation2) AND assignee not in (escalation3)

As long as “assignee in” has the person of the previous tier in it and the “assignee not in” has those still left to be assigned to it should work okay…

All these filters do is show tickets at various stages of the escalation process, because of that it is possible to associate that with a jira jelly script to actually carry out actions on it.

Jira Jelly

Remember that link earlier? the one to the Jelly page? well that will help with the others above… Now you need to know what to do.

You have a way of filtering out the tickets so you can now write a script to do something at each stage of the escalation as needed. In our case we need to maker sure the user receives a notification and that a comment appears in the ticket so it is clear it has been updated.

The first attempt of this was to simply add a comment with the newish @user mentioning system which then automatically lets the user know they were mentioned. Unfortunately when using the add comment method it simply puts this in as text and when expanding the short hand to the full [~user] it just entered as text which means this method was not viable for us so instead we just simply assigned the ticket which has the affect of also adding the person to the watchers.

To do this sensibly it requires a few steps, a Login, the use of the filter to find the relavent tickets, a comment added and an assignment to happen.

<JiraJelly xmlns:jira="jelly:com.atlassian.jira.jelly.enterprise.JiraTagLib" xmlns:core="jelly:core" xmlns:log="jelly:log" >
  <log:info>Running 'Escalation for Incidents - t1' service</log:info>
  <jira:Login username="escalationuser" password="XXXXXXX">
    <!--  Escalation People -->
    <core:set var="escalate" value="escalation1" />
    <!-- Run the SearchRequestFilter Filter is Open PROJECTID P1's-->
    <jira:RunSearchRequest filterid="FILTERID" var="issues" />
    <core:forEach var="issue" items="${issues}">
      <log:warn>Escalating ${issue.key}</log:warn>
      <jira:AssignIssue key="${issue.key}" assignee="${escalate}"/>
      <jira:AddComment issue-key="${issue.key}" comment="Escalating to ${escalate}"/>
    </core:forEach>
  </jira:Login>
</JiraJelly>

The filterid can be found by simply viewing the filter and copying the number from the end of the URL, hopefully everything else is self explanatory. for each escalation simply copy the file, update the filter ID and the escalation user

Install

1, Copy files to the server and put somewhere sensible that tomcat has access too, ensure the files are owned by tomcat and that tomcat can write to that directory.
2, In Jira, go to Administration -> System -> Advanced -> Services and add a new service, give it a name and select the built in jelly runner. Enter the location of the script and provide a log location.

jelly service config

That’s it. I noticed that having server access was invaluable, mainly because I was using VI and some syntax errors made it in which were hard to spot with out seeing the log, you can test your scripts using the Jelly runner which is also useful.

In short that’s it, hopefully that will be useful for people :)

Time for an idea

By Matthew Smith

Why not

It’s been a while since I’ve thrown myself into an idea and tried to come out the other side, so I’ve spent the last couple of days just thinking about what’s missing. It doesn’t take much to have an idea; but making sure it’s a good idea, making sure it is unique in it’s offering and making sur eit’s better than anything else is not easy.

At work we are working on an idea, a concept of some sort of DevOps tool that takes a lot of what we do already and simplifies it and merges multiple tools into one place, the driving goal is easy of use, take an entire system, data centre what ever you want and within minuets you’ll have the whole thing monitored, feeding metrics back for reporting, performing real time analysis and trending. It’s still very much prototype phase but it’s a very exciting project that wraps up several elements that we as a team are passionate about, ease of use, efficiency, performance, monitoring, measurements and of course, cool technology; but with that said I still have this urge to do something else, I’m not really sure why, I’m busy enough as it is but I feel like the world is missing something that is more than just an amalgamation of parts, or a re-skin of an existing thing, I feel like it’s missing something, the question is as always what?

There’s a saying “All the good ideas are gone” probably true, but that doesn’t stop people striving for new things, look at Glass I’m not convinced it has a long term future in that styling, but wearable tech certainly does, look at this wrist computer from the tv show chuck, just what I’ve always wanted.

Wristcomputer

a lot of the best ideas today are based on things that have come before and re-envisioned, walkman -> ipod; iPaq -> iPad; alta vista -> google

Just because it’s been done in a similar way before doesn’t mean you can’t do it better, or take from their ideas and make it work and half of the battle is the conviction to want to do it better or different. Which is why everyone should try a new idea and everyone should try something new, to make something better.

What to do

This is the bit I’m struggling with, and it’s the hardest bit of the whole thing, for me it’s not good enough to take an idea and make it better, if someone gives you a product and says make it better it wouldn’t take long for a few ideas to bubble up. I’m thinking more along the lines of taking some wacky out there thinking and making it a reality in a way that works and works well.

I think over the next few weeks I’m just going to just write some things down and see which ones stand out, which ones seem stupid/crazy to do and then probably come up with one that works.

I’m not really sure what that is at all, I could take something like sentinel and munge that into something else, but it just doesn’t feel like the right idea. I had an idea a long time ago, probably 3 years ago, which I talked my self out of because it would take me forever to make and I didn’t have the skills, but things have changed, it isn’t even ground breaking it’s just another internet site.

Either way I’ll keep on plodding along for now and see if I can come up with something but until then much more scribbling on paper and throwing things at a wall.

To IDE or not

By Matthew Smith

What’s in an IDE!

Over the last 15 years or so I have used a few IDE’s for programming “proper” applications in Pascal, Delphie, C/C++ or Java but since moving to the darker side of computing, the linux world I never really needed an IDE and they were just bloated text editors. I don’t think much has changed but there are some good points and I’m at a cross roads as to what to do.

Should I spend some time making Vim, the best text editor the world will ever see better or give up and use an IDE, it’s not as straight forward as I would like to think or as anyone else would probably think so I wonder how it will turn out.

The basics

I’m currently, and probably most likely to be doing web based development and Ruby / python. Up until recently I had just used Vim to get any Ruby programming I needed done, and to be honest it worked okay. I typically just opened a new terminal tab and then changed to the repo directory and started opening files, So I had to cd to a directory before opening the file it wasn’t killing me. I was able to just open and get on with making changes with no real hassle and with syntax high lighting it worked out quite well. Recently I have started to do more web based things and have started using an IDE for that and that’s what’s lead to this blog, there’s a few features of an IDE that I think I’m missing from Vim.

1, Being able to see the entire project directory easily and visually navigating to supporting files to have a quick view / edit is nice.
2, Refactoring, simple things like changing a variable name can be a real bugger in Vim, yes you can find and replace but that is not the same as refactoring, to refactor like an IDE does Vim would need to understand to some degree the codes structure and not to treat it all like text
3, Hiding chunks of code, being able to rol up / down sections of code can make it a lot easier to focus on what’s actually going on
4, Word completion, IDE’s know about the libs being used and the other variabels so can offer hints to complete the words being typed which is very handy
5, Short hand, being able to type short hand to do lots of things, like starting a html tag and having it auto completed speeds up development which must be good

I think if I could get the above features in Vim I probably would struggle to justify not using Vim, lets see what happens.

Vim IDE

1, This is seemingly an easy oen to address with something like NERD tree Initially this looks good so I’m saying point 1 is solved, just need some better aliases (:help 40.2)

2, In short, no, I’ve only seen normal find / replace or basically using grep, There does seem to be language specific ones like This but who wants to find a new refactoring plugin (if someone wrote it) for every new language…

3, This is again easy if you know what to look for Folding is not new and from my quick play seems good.

4, Again language specific it seems possible: this one for ruby, but what about python? javascript? etc etc

5, This one is a simple one that vim does do: Here but it’s almost like you have to hand crank it all!

Summary

So from what I can see I can spend some time making Vim do what I need, and no doubt there’s some stuff there for Ruby and Python that would make it a lot more useful to use as an IDE but it still doesn’t make it easy and will be rather language specific in terms of making it work well out of the box. It does seem that IDE’s are better at those specific tasks above, not to mention debugging and break points etc, maybe Vim can do more of that too and I just don’t know how.

Either way it coped better with the 5 original points than I thought it would and I have found some things out that suggest it may be worth tweaking my current vim to make it better. In the mean time I think I will continue to persevere with learning the IDE and it’s short cuts as it appears that it could dramatically speed up my development by just simply using the tools already there.

I wasn’t expecting to find vi to be as good as it was but in my head even though I prefer Vim at the moment I think the IDE will cope better in the long run, time will tell.

Pain and suffering with AngularJS

By Matthew Smith

What a week!

Over the last month or so I have been steadily learning Javascript, Bootstrap, NodeJS and AngularJS well last week added to that mix was D3JS. I must have got to the end of my tether every day last week. I’m pretty sure I was suffering from information overload and before going any further I will say D3JS is really powerful and looks to be a tool I’d like to learn to use, the only downside is even after a week of drawing circles, bar charts and trying line graphs I am still struggling, but hopefully my struggling has not been in vein I learn some good things and if I’d known them before I’d started a lot less pain and suffering would have ensued.

The problems

So I don’t know angular, I also really struggle to read large chunks of text like the APIs, I did do the tutorial which helps but not really… There were a number of issues, not knowing how angular worked interms of where the right place to put things was a big set back, not knowing how to get data between the various components and updated was another. Another area of challenge was the asynchronous nature of Angular, making a $http.get request and not having data available instantly is odd but easily over come once you know how.

In importance order…

Callbacks

A long while a go I wrote a blog called What University forgot to mention about programming, it turns out this was one of those things that would have been really useful to be learning if the course wasn’t dumbed down to cater for those that didn’t come from an IT background at college.

In short I was doing this:

var data = [];

function getData(){
  $http.get('/api/data').success(function(response) {
    data = response;
  });
}
getData();
alert("data is 0!? " + data.length);

The problem with this is that getData is called and initiates the $http.get which does not return data, it returns the promise of having data; When it actually gets a response it moves on to the function declared in then(). Remember the way Javascript works is we passed in that function as an Object which then gets run when the data returns, it passes in the response for us to then handle. Because $http.get returns a promise that function is done, everything executed, the anonymous function we declared is a parameter that has been forked in the browser or language somewhere and is running isolated from everything else.

The way around this is to structure code in a way that allows for the callback to then do what you needed so….

function getData(cb) {
  $http.get('/api/data').success(function(response){
    cb(response);
  })
}

function drawGraph(newData) {
  //some code to draw a graph omitted...
}

//Draw a graph
getData(drawGraph);

By using the above method you only draw the graph when there is data, take this; rinse and repeat and all will be well, except this method is only really good for a one time graph. Controllers only get called once, they can be used to set up functions to be used in the view etc but they are ultimately only run once.

Data Binding

Firstly, read about Data binding. This first mistake I made was trying to do everything in a controller, it’s the most natural as everything in there gets run like when you include a normal js file, but it just makes life harder than it needs to be.

Originally I was doing something like this:

function getData(cb) {
  $http.get('/api/data').success(function(response){
     cb(resp);
  });
}

function updateData(data){
  drawGraph(data);
}

function drawGraph(data){
  //some code to draw a graph omitted...
  getData(updateData);
}

//Draws initial graph and then kicks off an infinite loop of getting data/drawing graphs 
getData(drawGraph);

I was using this to update and draw a graph. This works sort of but I was not able to get it to work because of my understanding of D3Js at the time, I’m sure smarter people than I could make it work but that’s not how it should be done; theres a better way like explained in the link above about data binding.

If you take your partial (template) and put certain triggers in it, even manual like ng-click you can do this a lot simpler, you can even use $watch to continuously update. so if you were to define a function or two like this…

In your controller:

$scope.updateGraph = function() {
  getData(reDrawGraph);
}

function reDrawGraph() {
  //code to RE-DRAW not draw the graph
  //Enter new, Transition, exit... more later...
}

In your partial:

<button class="btn btn-success" ng-click="updateGraph()">

You can make it update as you go. One step further would be to use $scope.data and just have a loop in the controller that sets that when data comes back, combined with a $watch to always re-draw.

Directives

Okay, so directives are useful, Until I learnt about them I was drawing all of my graphs from the controller and by far the must successful graphs I did were all in the directives area. I still think there was a better way because I was struggling to get it to work with $watch either way by having this layer you achieve two things, less crap in the controllers, and a nice location to do the DOM manipulation, which for graph drawing is kind of handy. Because this links right in with the html it is easier to manipulate.

Summary

These are just some of the major hurdles I overcame while trying to get D3JS working, and there’s more to come when I get on to D3JS which I have to admit I only got basic graphs drawn but I do think it’s an area worthy of diving into with more detail. All in all these experiences have made my understanding of Angular a lot better I am now able to quickly and easily make changes to pages to do basic things like looping through JSON data to display lists of data or forms to submit data.

A day of Javascript

By Matthew Smith

Urghh!

Today I’ve been trying, trying really hard to apply some of that JavaScript knowledge to a simple problem, something that if I was doing it in HTML and PHP would have taken about an hour, and I’ve not done PHP for as long as I haven’t done JavaScript, but that’s not a fair comparison as like most people that used JavaScript in the past I did very limited things like pop up a window or an alert when something went wrong. I only had one thing to do today, add some functionality to a web app to upload files and store them locally on the server.

I’ve only spent 12 hours on it so far, and it sort of works if you ignore the fact that Drag and Drop won’t work an the progress bar doesn’t appear / update or that it doesn’t close the upload popup at some point, but if you’re willing to apply some manual intervention it will upload a file eventually and it will (after you’ve closed the upload dialog and refreshed the page…) display the new item.

I think some of the challenge is the many layers to the app, with html, css, javascript, bootstrap, angular, jquery and nodeJS; there’s just a lot of places doing stuff and it’s not all quite settled into my head yet… combine that with only recently having played with all of those and it’s a little confusing. I spent a lot of time trying to steal peoples code to save time from various open sourced git repos, I basically found that after stealing 5 and none working that I was wasting my time so I just took one as an example and went from there, This one in fact.

With in a couple of hours I had most of it down but not working, having dedicated this sprint to button first development I got the UI looking just right before moving on to any code. I then set about making the javascript bits work and I managed to get everything working apart from drag and drop, so it wasn’t posting data but it was showing files. For some reason the drop event I had setup was not getting triggered, every time I dropped something on it it did nothing ad the browser just opened it as a file.

Annoying, I imagine that something I’ve done in bootstrap or angular has had an impact on it but I don’t know and have just had to abandon it for now, maybe it’s the modal? maybe it’s some weird local issue, either way I’ll have to come back to it.

Some lessons learned

What’s the point in wasting a day on various elements of JavaScript if I’m not going to learn anything. Well I learnt loads! I learnt how to use the debugger in Webstorm which was pretty neat, once I’d clicked that button I found my issue in my node code really quickly, next time that will hopefully save me 2 hours :)
I also learnt that at my level of skill, using someone else’s complicated library for stuff is a bit hit and miss, especially if it requires working with multiple technologies that I’m also not familiar with…

In short at least by writing it my self / re-writing it from other’s examples I had some time to digest it and understand it, of course it doesn’t work but I fell better for having a go :) I am still relatively hopeful that in a few months this will all be second nature, but which time I would have probably forgotten all the ruby I know :)

Anyway, a short one today, more programming tomorrow and hopefully after another full day I would have the upload box working.
