Code Snippets

• Sendgrid's UI does not give you full control over API keys. This script does. Set two environment variables and you can view your keys, their scopes and add/remove scopes from any key. Simple utility but saves a lot of time and headache.

• Run chrome completely separate from the standard as though it has never been run before on that computer, but skip the welcome wizard stuff.

• Python function to wait for a recently published version of an npm package to become available. Too many times I've been bitten by npm publish returning but the package not becoming available for several seconds, minutes and sometimes even hours later. If you automate your deployment with python this can help you too.

  	import sys
  	import json
  	import time
  	# pip install npm
  	from npm.bindings import npm_run
  	def wait(package, version):
  	while True:
  	err, raw = npm_run('view','--json', package)
  	sys.stdout.write('.')
  	sys.stdout.flush()
  	if err:
  	raise Exception('npm view returned an error: ' + str(err))
  	info = json.loads(raw)
  	if version in info['versions']:
  	print('')
  	break
  	time.sleep(1)
  	wait(*sys.argv[1:])
  	# python wait-until-published.py PACKAGE VERSION
  	# python wait-until-published.py npm 6.9.0
  	# python wait-until-published.py @org/pkg 1.2.3

• Does it irritate anyone else as much as me when you hit the back button and the video keep on playing but all you can see is the audio and it's not clear how to make the audio stop? This fixes that on FireTV+Kodi.
