| 10:51 | <@jerith> | Hey Reiver. |
| 10:51 | <@Reiver> | hihi! |
| 10:51 | <@Reiver> | wassup? |
| 10:51 | <@jerith> | I'm very upset with the S3 people, |
| 10:51 | <@jerith> | Their Ruby library is pretty crap. |
| 10:52 | <@jerith> | So now I have to write a wrapper around it. |
| 10:52 | <@Reiver> | Woe? |
| 10:53 | <@jerith> | Woe. |
| 10:54 | <@jerith> | I'm still not entirely comfortable in Ruby. |
| 10:55 | | * Mahal offers sympathies from an unknowing distance. |
| 10:55 | <@Reiver> | (jerith is a dirty bloody south african.) |
| 10:55 | <@Reiver> | (Now you know distance!) |
| 10:56 | <@jerith> | But this library gives me raw XML back. |
| 10:56 | <@jerith> | And it doesn't do things like untruncate file listings. |
| 10:58 | <@Reiver> | ... |
| 10:58 | <@Reiver> | That's... unhealthy... |
| 10:59 | <@jerith> | S3 will only give you back a thousand files at a time. |
| 10:59 | <@jerith> | But you can ask it for a list with an offset. |
| 10:59 | <@jerith> | So if you have 2.5k files in your bucket, you need to do three lists. |
| 11:00 | <@Reiver> | ...Lovely. |
| 11:00 | <@jerith> | And check for the "truncated" bit in each so that you know where to stop. |
| 11:00 | <@Reiver> | >.< |
| 11:01 | <@jerith> | Now, it's trivial to wrap that in a loop. |
| 11:02 | <@jerith> | trunc=true; offset=0; files=[]; while(trunc) {files.append(getlist(offset)); offset += 1000} |
| 11:02 | <@jerith> | Or somesuch. |
| 11:03 | <@jerith> | (Pseudocode, obviously) |
| 11:03 | <@Reiver> | Yet it is a workaround to something that would have been nice to avoid needing at all... |
| 11:06 | | * jerith nods. |
| 11:06 | <@jerith> | I can see cases where you might want a lower level library, but that's easy to solve. |
| 11:07 | <@jerith> | Expose the lower level stuff as well as the higher level stuff or just have a new wrapper object. |
| 11:07 | | * Reiver nods. |
| 11:07 | <@jerith> | And this stupid terminal doesn't like my backspace key. :-( |
| 11:07 | <@jerith> | It sees it as delete. |
| 11:07 | <@Reiver> | Ow. |

| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | Please tell me we have somebidy around that can help me not be a complete numpty with ubuntu. |
| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | I'm fine in redhat base installs. |
| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | I know how to make what I need to go go in there. |
| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | I can't do it in ubuntu and I'm dying. |
| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | Nor do I have time to find out the normal way, because this is for work and needs done asap. |
| 23:57 | <@Mahal> | >.< |
| 23:58 | <@Vornicus-Latens> | Ubuntu uses Apt as its package manager. Administration -> Package Manager or something, or aptitude in the command line. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | I can ssh out of it. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | I can't ssh IN. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | it's a server install. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | command line only. |
| 23:58 | <@Vornicus-Latens> | okay, aptitude it is. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | I have no issues with that fact, I'm used to it with redhat. |
| 23:58 | <@Mahal> | (it's doing an apt-get upgrade at this precise moment.) |
| 23:59 | <@Mahal> | Right, done |

| 23:59 | | * Mahal flail at not being able to SSH into a /default install/ |
| 23:59 | <@Vornicus-Latens> | you're going to need ssh-d |
