In this tutorial, we will guide you through the most popular Git operations used on a daily basis and show how they can be performed from the AppCode user interface. You will learn how to add projects to the Git repository, share them on GitHub, commit and push changes, create and merge branches, investigate the files' history, and more. (more…)

In this tutorial you'll elaborate the iOSConferences application (see Create a SwiftUI application in AppCode) by making it load the up-to-date list of iOS/macOS conferences from the remote YAML file used for the cocoaconferences.com website. To parse the YAML file, you'll use the Yams library which will be added into the project by means of the CocoaPods dependency manager. Requirements: AppCode 2019.3 or later Xcode 11 or later Initial project: iOSConferences Final project: iOSConferences (more…)

In this tutorial, you'll create a simple SwiftUI application that shows a list of iOS conferences. The application will consist of two views: A list of conferences representing data from the local JSON file. Details for each conference Along the way, you'll get familiar with the basic AppCode workflow and useful features that help writing code easier and faster. Requirements: AppCode 2019.3 or later Xcode 11 or later Sample project: iOSConferences (more…)

Windows Subsystem for Linux, or WSL as it's commonly known, allows Windows 10 to run Linux inside Windows. We are going to have a look at WSL 1 since, as of the publishing of this article, WSL 2 is not officially released yet. After installing WSL 1, and enabling your preferred Linux distribution on it, you can set up Go as you would on a normal Linux installation. You should also install Go for Windows since the IDE will still run on the Windows side of things. With these two Go installations in place, some additional configuration is needed. Make sure to point the GOPATH both in Window

Hello again. This is the third, and final, article from our series on Go Modules. In this article, we'll cover how to version our project and manage the migration to a new major version. In case you missed the previous posts, here's a list of articles from the series: Starting with a new Go Module from scratch Creating a new project Adding dependencies to the project Running and debugging the application Dependencies and how to use them Changing the version of a dependency Using the vendoring mode Tidying up the modules in a project Visualizing the dependencies o

In this second article from our series on Go Modules, we'll cover how to manage project dependencies:. This series of articles is broken down into the following sections: Starting with a new Go Module from scratch Creating a new project Adding dependencies to the project Running and debugging the application Dependencies and how to use them Changing the version of a dependency Using the vendoring mode Tidying up the modules in a project Visualizing the dependencies of a project Versioning and migrating to a new major version Non-major version upgrading

Test-Driven Development, or TDD as it is commonly referred to, is the development process in which tests are written first, then the code to support them is created, and, when every test passes, code is refactored. Let's have a look at how the unique features of GoLand allow us to be proficient with this workflow. The general TDD workflow looks like this: write tests run tests to see that they fail write the code and make it pass the tests refactor the code (more…)

Development for Go Modules continues in Go 1.13 and the support GoLand has for them too. Today, we'll have a look at how to transform our development model to use them without hassle. This series of articles is broken down into the following sections: Starting with a new Go Module from scratch Creating a new project Adding dependencies to the project Running and debugging the application Dependencies and how to use them Changing the version of a dependency Using the vendoring mode Tidying up the modules in a project Visualising the dependencies of a project

When developing a web service, you would usually test it by sending all kinds of HTTP requests to it and examining what’s returned. In PhpStorm, you can do this directly in the code editor. In this post, we’ll use the github.com/JetBrains/phpstorm-http-client-tutorial example project to demonstrate. You can clone it and navigate through its commit history to get to the corresponding phase of this overview. For each phase, run composer update to install and update what’s required, and then composer start to start the PHP web server. (more…)

In this blog post, we’ll explore how to work with Go Modules when creating new Go projects or working with existing ones. First, let’s create a new project by selecting New Project from the Welcome Screen. Then choose Go Modules (vgo) as the project type. We can then specify the location of the project, which can now be set outside of the GOPATH, to any directory in your system. Ensure that GOROOT points to a Go SDK which is 1.11 or newer. While Go 1.10 with the special vgo binary installed can be used, this is not recommended as vgo is not updated as frequently to be on par with the Go re

Continuing the series of posts on how to connect DataGrip (or any other IntelliJ-based IDE) to various data sources, in this post we’ll show you how to connect to Google’s BigQuery. BigQuery is a low-cost enterprise data warehouse designed to handle data analytics at a massive scale. Currently, DataGrip does not come with a built-in connector for BigQuery, so let’s connect the IDE to it. Update: if you prefer to watch a video instead of reading this post, please see a recent version of this tutorial created in April 2019. (more…)

In the software world, there has been a solid habit of using version control to keep track and manage source code changes and collaboration. We have moved from centralized solutions like SourceSafe and TFS and now into using tools that distribute the management with Mercurial and Git. While both centralized and distributed technologies have pros and cons, we will be looking at why database professionals need to use version control and how to do it with the popular tool Git. With DataGrip’s inheritance from IntelliJ IDEA, we have the ability to use Git to store, manage edits, and allow a
