In this tutorial, I show steps to modify and edit sikulix under OSX environment. This should not be different with other *nix environment. However, for windows environment, you may need to adjust yourself. Modify your code Clone from the repository Open the repository as maven project in netbeans. You can easily use this button to open the project You will see that the cloned project appeared in open windows like the following Open the project. It will be like this Modify any part you want to modify Clean and build the maven project. If you open other sub project of sikulix, make sure that you clean and build only the main sikulix maven project Create Installer Go to File Finder in the repository folder. You will see one file named runSetup. Using your terminal and cd to the folder and run the setup. $ runSetup It will bring you to SikuliX installation. Please remember that if you build yourself, ALWAYS do it in offline mode, means that you are n...

Komodo is a lightweight and great programming IDE. Recently, I use the IDE to work on python. However, I got problem because I need to run the python from some virtual environments. To make it happen, this is what I did: 1. Create a shell script to run the virtual environment. For example we name the shell script runpyenv.sh, we may run the script with runpyenv.sh mycode.py. The code $1 will take the first input argument after the shell script name. source ~/arwanenv/bin/activate python $1 2. Now make the shell script to be executable sudo chmod +x runpyenv.sh 3. Now you put the shell script inside the command of your Komodo. It will be better if you make the file parameter to be automatic. Here is the command in your Komodo ~/runpyenv.sh %F Enjoy. Share your ideas in the comment if you have better idea.

I am a big fans of unix terminal. Today I found something interesting I can do with ubuntu terminal i.e. stream online radio via terminal. Here are the steps needed to stream your chosen radio via terminal Install mplayer Update your ubuntu repository to ensure that you use the latest update then install mplayer using apt-get $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install mplayer Find the IP address of the radio you want to listen.  You might find it from anywhere, but I prefer to choose from https://www.xatworld.com/radio-search/. In the following screen capture, I show you when I was trying to find IP address for MQ FM (it is a moslem radio in Indonesia). You just need to supply the radio name, press "search", after it is found then you can just press "Find IP" button. Voila! Your radio IP address is there.   Open your radio using mplayer Now it's the showtime! You can play your radio now. Type this in your terminal $ mplayer http://202...

Followings are steps needed to install Android Studio on Ubuntu 14.04: There are some tutorials that suggest the installation using PPA. However, sometime it does not work because the PPA listed is no longer available or for any other reasons. In this post, I write manual way for installation. This way is much safer and more guarantee that it will work. Please let me know if you have any problem. Preparation If you run 64-bit ubuntu, install the following packages first. If you run 32-bit, you may skip this step and go to the next step $ sudo apt - get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2 - 1.0 lib32stdc ++ 6 Download JDK from Oracle You can download from their website. When I write this post, the download page is located here . However, they may move the download page. In case you don't find in that link, you can ask Google to find the download page for you. Extract JDK You can use Files Manager or use terminal. If you want to use terminal, you can use this command...

I am a big fan of Python, and I am a big fan of TDD (Test Driven Development). The problem that I face for team development was that it is quite difficult to communicate the testing results to the team, because the results are in terminal so only us and God know :D Fortunately, somebody out there know my problem and create this amazing HTMLTestRunner.py. This tool is very handy and very easy to use. It almost feels like you don't need to do anything. OK, here's one example on how we use HTMLTestRunner. Ah, forget it. Download HTMLTestRunner.py from this website , and put somewhere in your computer. Say in this example, I put in ~/Downloads/HTMLTestRunner folder import unittest import sys _path = r"Downloads/HTMLTestRunner" sys.path.append(_path) import HTMLTestRunner class TestDemo(unittest.TestCase):     def testA(self):         assert True     def testB(self):         assert False class TestDemo2(unittest.Test...

When we need to import python script into sikulix workspace, here is one of the way to do: 1. Import sys 2. Append the path to the script into sys.path 3. Import your python script Here is an example import sys sys.path.append("/Users/arwankhoiruddin/Downloads/python_packages/HTMLTestRunner") import HTMLTestRunner However, it has some limitations. You should refer to this document: https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+faq/1114

If we write SikuliX code to check app on different operating system, we may need to define characteristic for each OS (e.g. image library or specific code). To check it, we can use built-in SikuliX script. Following is an example of OS checking if Settings.isWindows():     print "I am running on Windows" elif Settings.isLinux():     print "I am running on Linux" elif Settings.isMac():     print "I am running on Mac" That's it. Hope it helps.

"why not just use IDE or something like gedit?" I had that question long ago and that made me stick to GEdit and other IDEs. However, when I have to do some works on files in server, I just realise that I have to familiarise myself to command-based editor. And, that's the beginning for me to know vi. When I open it, the appearance is so boring. No line number, no syntax color. So, I decided to make at least that two things to make vi to be IDE like. Hahaha... Here's what I did: $ vi ~/.vimrc then type these lines in vimrc file set number   syntax on colorscheme desert ==== set number will add line number on the left part of vi syntax on will add colour of the syntax colorscheme desert will set the colour scheme to be "desert" That's it. I hope I can add some more customization of vi in the future. I feel that I am falling in love for the second time. Oh, vi... I love you.
