UML

how objects are connected, how they react/communicate.
Visualize and design
UML used to visualize the design
  • Associations simply show that there are some relationships between entities,static relation. ex: department offer courses.
    • 0..* zero or more (on both sides "many to many" )
    • 0..1 zero or one (one to one)
    • 1..* one or more (one to many)
  • Aggregation "has a" more specific than association "an association that represents (a whole part/ part) of a relation ship". ex: when a class is a collection/container of another class but the contained class doesn't have strong dependency on the container "if container destroyed, contents don't" (class container, students contained)
  • Composition "Owns"  more specific than aggregation, a strong life cycle dependency between instance of the container class and the contained, if container is destroyed, normally every instance that it contains is destroyed (school container, classes contained).
  • Generalization "Is a" (extends) solid.
  • Realization "one model implements the behavior of the other" dashed.
i.e:
relationship between entities have to be abstract so that unnecessary details doesn't hide the relationships between them

Micro-Service with mind-map

  If we were to give a definition to micro service, what will it be? A simple one is an architectural style, that functionally decomposes an application into a set of services, each service has a focused, cohesive set of responsibilities. Similar to most, it has to have some properties & practices, which we can categorize to a general ones and detailed ones “12-factors”.  Away from the 12 factor, Some general practice that be considered while decomposing a services:  Loosely coupled: minimum communication between Services. Cohesion: elements that are tightly related to each other and change together should stay together "Common Closure Principle (CCP)". Single responsibility principal (SRP): every micro-service should do one thing and do it exceptionally. When constructing an application or defining its architecture, we follow below three-step process: Identifying the system operations, functional requirement, which are the user stories and their associated user scena...

Not all Ps sting

  If someone meant to say Ps and pronounce it Bees. would this confuse you :). Ps is for the P that is the start of Properties and Practice Each application should have some properties and follow certain practices. Properties: Below are 5 properties we should try to have in our application with a small description of how to include them Scalable, Scale => Increase workload (horizontally scaling) Statless, no state should be shared among different application instances,  Concurrency, concurrent processing = Threads. Loosely coupled, decompose the system into modules, each has minimal dependencies on each other "modularization", encapsulating code that changes together "High cohesion".  API first, Interfaces, implementation can be changed without affecting other application. favor distribution of work across different teams.  Backing Services, "DB, SMTP, FTP ..." , treating them as attached resources, meaning they can easily be changed. Manageable, changi...

regex

Regular expressions are a kind of language within a language, designed to help programmers with their searching task. in general, a regex search runs from left to right, and once a source's character has been used in match, it can't be reused. metacharacter: \d  digit \s  white space  \w word character (letter, digit or "_") [a-f] range from a to f  [a-fA-F]  looking for the occurrences of a-f or A-f not fA combination ^ to negate the character specified nested brackets  to create a union set && to specify intersection of a set quantifiers "allows to specify number of occurrences to match against " +  one or more *  zero or more ?  zero or one greedy: read first the whole string, if no match, move backward character by character till a match is found. reluctant , however, take the opposite approach: They start at the beginning of the input string,...
