Config in Elixir projects

Excerpt from Elixir Cookbook -

The configuration from the imported files will override any existing configuration (with the same key) in the config.exs file. In fact, Configuration values are merged recursively. See the example at https://github.com/alco/mix-config-example.
To access configuration values, we use Application.get_env(:app, :key).

Database related - Composite Indexes

How do composite indexes work - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/795031/how-do-composite-indexes-work


https://stackoverflow.com/a/795068

Composite indexes work just like regular indexes, except they have multi-values keys.

If you define an index on the fields (a,b,c) , the records are sorted first on a, then b, then c.

Example:

| A | B | C |
-------------
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 1 | 4 | 2 |
| 1 | 4 | 4 |
| 2 | 3 | 5 |
| 2 | 4 | 4 |
| 2 | 4 | 5 |

• 12 Please note also that indexes are stored as Btree, so an (a,b,c) index will help on a search on (a) and on (a, b),
   but not on other searches like (b) or (b,c). – aexl Apr 30 '16 at 17:53

Two single-column indexes vs one two-column index in MySQL?

https://stackoverflow.com/a/2349824

"MySQL can use multiple-column indexes for queries that test all the columns in the index, or queries that test just the first column, the first two columns, the first three columns, and so on. If you specify the columns in the right order in the index definition, a single composite index can speed up several kinds of queries on the same table." - Multiple-Column Indexes – AlikElzin-kilaka Sep 9 at 4:46

up - tool for writing Linux pipes

https://github.com/akavel/up

up is the Ultimate Plumber, a tool for writing Linux pipes in a terminal-based UI interactively, with instant live preview of command results.

The main goal of the Ultimate Plumber is to help interactively and incrementally explore textual data in Linux, by making it easier to quickly build complex pipelines, thanks to a fast feedback loop. This is achieved by boosting any typical Linux text-processing utils such as grep, sort, cut, paste, awk, wc, perl, etc., etc., by providing a quick,interactive, scrollable preview of their results.
