Letsencrypt wildcard certificate

To enable a Letsencrypt wildcard certificate do the following steps

1. Create a DNS entry *.[domain_name].[domain_extension]
for example *.plaatsoft.nl

2. Run following certbot command to create a wildcard certificate
sudo certbot certonly -d *.plaatsoft.nl –manual

3. Certbot will ask you to add an extra DNS entry (TXT) with a unique token
Add this record in your DNS

4. Press “yes”. Then wildcard certifate is created

5. Add new certificate to Apache or HaProxy.

6. Case closed

Create GIS database in PostgreSQL

1. Install PostgreSQL database (for example 9.6)

2. Install postgis module (for example 2.5.1)

3. Start pgAdmin 4

4. Create database

5. Enable GIS features in database with following command:
CREATE EXTENSION postgis;

6. Now shapefile can be loaded with PostGIS 2.0 shapefile tool

7. Set GEO input format (for example Rijksdriehoek)
SELECT UpdateGeometrySRID(‘wegvakken’,’geom’, 28992);

8. Create WGS84 geog column and fill it.
ALTER TABLE wegvakken ADD COLUMN geog geography(geometry);
UPDATE wegvakken SET geog = ST_Transform(geom, 4326);
CREATE INDEX wegvakken_geog_idx ON wegvakken USING GIST (geog);

9. Now pgAdmin4 can show GEO layer with OpenStreetMap layer as base.

10. Set center point of RijksDriehoek (Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren (‘Lange Jan’) in Amersfoort.)
SELECT * FROM wegvakken ORDER BY geom <-> ‘SRID=28992;POINT(155000 463000)’::geometry LIMIT 1;

11. select ST_X(geom), ST_Y(geom) from shapefile

Windows 10 upgrade takes hours

This afternoon my Quad Core 3GHZ Desktop finally received the Windows 10 creator patch. It took my desktop more than 4 hours to install it. Why is a Windows 10 patch always so slow? If i upgrade a Raspberry Pi Quad Core 1.2GHZ Linux kernel it’s only take 10 minutes. Strange that low end linux hardware upgrades are must faster than high end Windows hardware. I think that the Microsoft staff must go on training to learn how to patch Operating Systems fast and without reboots 🙂

Raspberry Pi Noobs cleanup

If you want to have a nice and clean Raspberry Pi Noobs installation. Execute te followings commands to remove unless tools:

sudo apt-get purge wolfram-engine (Reduce image size with 683MB)
sudo apt-get purge sonic-pi (Reduce image size with 151MB)
sudo apt-get purge scratch (Reduce image size with 93MB)
sudo apt-get purge scratch2 (Reduce image size with 147MB)
sudo apt-get purge scratch3 (Reduce image size with 147MB)
sudo apt-get autoclean

This initial Noobs image size will now be arround 4GB 🙂

Google Charts zoom in dataset example

google-chartsI took me a while to understand how Google Charts can be extended with a zoom/drill in data set feature. You have to add then google.visualization.events.addListener method which fetch the selected datapoint of a graph. With some extra javascript code you can reload the chart with a more detailed dataset. See example below!

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      google.load("visualization", "1", {packages:["bar"]});
      google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
      function drawChart() {

      var options = {
          bars: "vertical",
          bar: {groupWidth: "90%"},
          legend: { position: "none"},
          vAxis: {format: "decimal"},
          isStacked:true,colors: ["#0066cc", "#808080"],vAxis: { format:"decimal", viewWindow: { min: 0, max: ".round($max_forecast+100)." } }, series: {
            3: {
                targetAxisIndex: 1
            }
          }
        };

        var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([['','Low (kWh)','Normal (kWh)','Solar (kWh)','Forecast (kWh)'],['2006',0,0,0,0],['2007',0,0,0,0],['2008',0,0,0,0],['2009',0,0,0,0],['2010',0,0,0,0],['2011',0,0,0,0],['2012',0,0,0,0],['2013',0,0,0,0],['2014',0,0,0,0],['2015',0,0,0,0],['2016',20,20,11,278.75]]);
        var chart = new google.charts.Bar(document.getElementById("chart_div"));
        chart.draw(data, google.charts.Bar.convertOptions(options));

        google.visualization.events.addListener(chart, "select", selectHandler);

        function selectHandler(e)     {
           var year = data.getValue(chart.getSelection()[0].row, 0);
           link("pid=30&eid=88&date="+year+"-1-1");
        }
      }

function link(value)
{
	var form = document.forms['plaatenergy'];
	var newInput = document.createElement('input');
	newInput.setAttribute('type','hidden');
	newInput.setAttribute('name','token');
	newInput.setAttribute('value',value);
	form.appendChild(newInput);		
		
	form.submit();
