A .pre-commit-config.yaml enforces the same checks across every contributor. - [TIL: Testing CLI Tools With pytest in Python](/til-pytest-cli-testing) (Apr 2022 · Original · TIL): pytest with subprocess or click's test runner validates CLI output, exit codes, and error messages without manual terminal checks. - [TIL: Semantic Versioning With the semver CLI](/til-semver-cli-versioning) (Mar 2022 · Original · TIL): The semver CLI validates, compares, and increments version strings from the terminal. No more manual math on MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. - [TIL: Concurrent API Calls With asyncio in Python](/til-asyncio-concurrent-python) (Feb 2022 · Original · TIL): asyncio runs multiple network requests concurrently without threads. gather() collects results as they finish, cutting wall-clock time dramatically. - [TIL: Building a CLI Tool With commander.js in Node.js](/til-commander-js-cli-node) (Jan 2022 · Original · TIL): commander.js parses flags, subcommands, and help text from a declarative config. A working CLI takes about ten lines of setup. **2021** - [TIL: Streaming JSON Parsing With ijson for Large Responses](/til-streaming-json-ijson) (Dec 2021 · Original · TIL): ijson parses JSON as it streams in, skipping the full parse. Handles multi-gigabyte responses without running out of memory. - [TIL: Converting Audio Formats With ffmpeg in One Command](/til-ffmpeg-audio-conversion) (Nov 2021 · Original · TIL): ffmpeg converts between any audio format with a single command. WAV to MP3, FLAC to OGG, sample rate changes, channel mapping — all in one line. - [TIL: Handling WebSocket Streams With the websockets Library in Python](/til-websockets-python-streaming) (Oct 2021 · Original · TIL): Python's websockets library opens a persistent connection in a few lines of async code. No polling, no HTTP overhead, just messages in both directions. - [TIL: Running GitHub Actions Locally With act](/til-act-github-actions-local) (Sep 2021 · Original · TIL): act runs your GitHub Actions workflows on your machine using Docker. No push-and-pray, iterate locally first. - [TIL: Creating Tarballs With tar for Deployment Packages](/til-tar-deployment-packages) (Aug 2021 · Original · TIL): tar bundles a directory into a single file preserving permissions and structure. One command packages your entire deployable artifact. Page 25 of 28.
