Next app...



I'm having a new app deploying to the Android Play Store. This experiment it's a result of Node.js, Heroku and Android.
The app gets his resources from a scrapper in node.js, with a timer for working some times in the week, i will give some explanation of how this works later on.

The app saves every value the app needs into a MongoDB database, and the second server delivers this data to the Android client via Json and Rest techniques that gives some velocity to develop of the server and adds simplicity that can be lost in more complex models. This is all for now I'll post some code in short.

Bye

I hate the PDF format

Image
The other day I was trying to get a graphical novel from the web but the only format that I found was PDF. In some manner, I was sure it was all that I needed but the PDF format was messing with the images on my Kindle Paper White.  The solution: Extract the images. The problem: PDF. The PDF format its crap, because of everyone it's trying to get a piece of the action behind it. So every extractor, converter or creator costs money or its freemium(for paying later) or its a scam. I searched for an open-source way of a deal with it and I came across this tool. It was fantastic! Pkpdfconverter lets you export text images tex + images in an elegant and simple way the interface look kind of old but it deserves being checked out. Here is the link to the project in Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pkpdfconverter/

I'll write the steps to reproduce the free DNS setup via CloudFlare, that by the way its an excellent way to manage the DNS for free. Step 1 In the first place, you need to add the domain to Cloudflare after creating an account in  Cloudflare . After that, we must provide the DNS of Cloudflare to our national domains service, usually, they are: fred.ns.cloudflare.com pola.ns.cloudflare.com Step 2 The next step it's to locate the "configuration area" in Blogspot > Settings > Basic > Publishing >  Blog Address > "+ Set up a third-party URL for your blog - Point your own registered URL to your blog." Step 3 In there is an input box for setting your domain URL including the subdomain www o blog or whatever... after you put it,

The Video converter I needed

Handbrake it's an open-source video transcoder and a lifesaver!  For people that don't have a lot of time for transcoding or don't know a lot about video. I was trying to get working an OGM file on my TV and the format was not recognized by it. It even wasn't visible by Plex that is a great server-client app for organizing video. So I decided to convert those stupid files.  The solution... Handbrake it was like magic!  It let me: Choose the format to convert the files Select various types of files Remove annoying audio tracks on the file Add some subtitles  Force subtitles that were necessary for the video. So I give you the link for this miraculous and simple app that lets you work on all your videos at once. https://handbrake.fr/rotation.php?file=HandBrake-1.3.1-x86_ 64-Win_GUI.exe The web site for this guy is  https://handbrake.fr/  go check it out.
