Monitoring ColdFusion with FusionReactor
February 22, 2012
If your CF server starts acting up, how do you go about resolving problems? If you're on ColdFusion 8 or 9 Enterprise, you may know that you have a built-in ColdFusion Server Monitor. Did you know there is an alternative tool that supplements it well? FusionReactor is a commercial third-...

There's been quite a bit of buzz
about ClojureScript
since it's launch last July but it is a fast-moving target and a but
daunting to get started with. Fortunately, there's a
simple Leiningen
plugin called lein-cljsbuild that can make it pretty simple to
get up and running!
I'm going to assume you've already
got Leiningen
installed so let's get a small
FW/1
application up and running and then add some ClojureScript to
it.
First off, we'll install
the Leiningen
plugin fo...

In the immortal words of John Cleese "And now for something completely different." Please note that this post is intended to be funny. As a geek with a sort of geek sense of humor I have to say that up front or some folks may miss it. The Muse does not typically castigate sales people over the phone unless they are calling from a NY boiler room (the stock kind - I actually have an affinity for maintenance people). I'm generally nice with the goal of getting off the phone as quickly as possible...

Last week, I started to talk about chaining asynchronous Validation rules using jQuery Deferred objects .

I am beginning work on a personal project and I started writing unit/integration tests as one of the first steps. As I started, I realized this is the first project I am setting up from scratch and starting to write tests. (Other projects I have worked on I was brought in after the initial round of tests were already written. I simply needed to write new tests for new functionality we were adding.)
This lead me to think, how should I handle this? Should I write a bunch of tests, that I know wil...

Yesterday I posted an example of highlight/fadeout effects done with jQuery. It wasn't necessarily that exciting, but it's not something I've done before so it was fun to build. Fellow evangelist (and my boss, so yeah, his comments get special attention) Kevin Hoyt commented that what I had achieved would be possible with CSS and transitions.
Now - I will admit to being a bit codependent on jQuery. It's not like I'm addicted. I can stop using jQuery whenever I want to. In fact, I went out of my...

Over the weekend, I read an excellent book on building RESTful web services - the REST API Design Rulebook by Mark Masse . In the book, Masse describes how the various HTTP methods (also known as Verbs) are intended to be used to create, access, update, delete, and augment data within a RESTful web service API. As far as HTTP verbs go, I'm extremely familiar with GET and POST - the two ve ... Read More »...

Yesterday I blogged a simple example of how to turn an RSS feed into a tag cloud. Today reader JP commented that it would be cool if I could mimic an effect he saw in a Flash based tag cloud. Basically, as you mouse over each word, they light up. Here's what I came up with.
First off - I tweaked my data a bit. Instead of working with an RSS feed, I decided to hit my copy of CFBloggers and scan all the category data. My local database is a good 6 months old, but still has 48 thousand entries. Th...

Well,
For those of you not listening to the podcast, www.cfhour.com, after many years at Disney I decided to change jobs. Leaving Disney was not a decision I took lightly. The decision process caused many sleepless nights and many moments of panic. But with the help of family and friends I was, obviously, able to make a final decision.
I have to say, leaving somewhere you have been for just shy of 11 years is tough. There is nothing that can prepare you for that day you resign nor the ...

Earlier today Mike Henke asked if there was a way to generate a tag cloud from an RSS feed. While he was able to find a solution quick enough (Wordle), I thought it would be kind of fun to try this myself. I knew that Pete Freitag had already blogged on tag clouds and ColdFusion, so all I had to do was generate my word data and pass it to his code. Here's what I came up with.
I began with a simple call to my RSS URL to generate a query of data. For my testing, this was the only thing I cached. ...

In a synchronous processing workflow, the Return statement tends to indicates the end of a given function's execution. In an asynchronous processing workflow, callbacks are more generally used to indicate the desired end of a given function's execution. That said, it is critical that a Return statement is also used in an asynchronous workflow in order to ensure that multiple callbacks are not invoked accidentally. This is a mistake that I have made many times and it always comes back to bite .....

Last year I attended the first OpenCF Summit and I thought it was a great event for a number of reasons.
It's back again this year, Feburary 24-26, in the same great location and it's just $72 for three days of collaborative education. What makes this conference so unique in the CFML world is that bridges beyond our community to worlds that would never normally see our favorite language. Last year, Chris Schalk came from Google to talk about their (free) platform services and to showcase CFML ru...
