How to located the installed & cache directory path for Deno?


Recently, I had installed the Deno v0.18.0 using brew on macOS. Then tried couple of samples given there. I was amazed to see, how closely it behaves like Golang. When we run the script for the first time, Deno downloads all the dependencies provided in the import statement that is required to run the script. When I ran the same script next time then it doesn't download any dependency. So that means it caches all those dependencies and uses the same next time.

Now I was eager to see the cache, but can't find it at the usual locations but after some time with the help of Google, I was able to find the correct location. So I thought it would be pretty useful to put it in blog for ready reckoner.

So here is the sample path on all major platforms

Platform / Location
Binary
Cache
Windows
C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\deno\
C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\deno\
macOS
/Users/me/.local/bin/
/Users/me/Library/Caches/deno/
Linux
/home/me/.local/bin/
/home/me/.cache/deno/

Here is the same path using the bat / bash syntax

Platform / Location
Binary
Cache
Windows
%appdata%\deno\
%localappdata%\deno\
macOS
$HOME/.local/bin/
$HOME/Library/Caches/deno/
Linux
$HOME/.local/bin/
${XDG_CACHE_HOME-$HOME/.cache}/deno/

That's it!

Unlock protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7

Recently I'd been called by Hindalco's Fabrication Plant division to unlock the protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7. They were in need to unlock those blocks since an year because of 1 million Rupees of loss per month. They want to re-program those blocks but it was locked by the man who'd done the setup. From the people working in that department, I came to know that they were trying to call that man (someone from Italy) right here but he's not coming. Actually, what he'd done was that he'd locked some of the blocks and deleted the source file. And Siemens didn't provide any feature to unlock. Department people also told me that even the people working in Siemens don't know how to do it. Being a software engineer I know that any thing can be reverse engineered. So I took up the challenge. How did I unlocked the blocks? The first thing I'd done was searched about this software at Google and read about what is this software all about. Aft...

JS: The complete code example of Crypto.js (DES)

For one of the project I was trying to use crypto.js but I found that the Quick-start Guide have some deficiency in terms of library usage. So I am writing it here as a useful note for memory recap. <script src="http://crypto-js.googlecode.com/svn/tags/3.1.2/build/rollups/tripledes.js"></script> <script> var encrypted = CryptoJS.DES.encrypt("The secret message", "secret_key"); var e_msg = encrypted.toString(); console.log(e_msg); var decrypted = CryptoJS.DES.decrypt(e_msg, "secret_key"); var d_msg = decrypted.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8); console.log(d_msg); </script>

Openmeetings Widget Wordpress Plugin

One of my client asked me to create a Wordpress plugin, so the first thing I did was to search for any existing plugin on which I can work on. Luckily I found one. It was developed by Shuki Vaknin. You can visit his plugin at:  http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/openmeetings-integration-plugin-widget/ But I had little different requirement. So I modified the Shuki Vaknin's plugin. The modification is that every session has a unique username. I choose guest as default name while adding a timestamp along with guest keyword like guest34578689 .
