Today, I learned about using interval to easily select a range of time.While reviewing data from a logging table, I needed to select records from the past 30 days. On a whim, I decided to see if PostgreSQL provided any clever ways to do this. My searches lead me to learn about a new data type: interval.1 Here’s a link to the docs, as well as the post I stumbled upon that demonstrated how to write this type of query. Let’s take a closer look.https://blog.mattclemente.com/2021/05/18/postgresql-select-date-range.html Blog - Luis Majano - Ortus Solutions - cbValidation v3.1.0 ReleasedI am so excited to bring you the release of cbValidation to version 3.1.0. This has been a great collaboration between Wil De Bruin and Eric Peterson. Thanks so much guys for all that you do for open source. You can see all of the release notes below with some of the major improvements of this release.

I discuss its merits in an earlier article: "Testing: A Horror Story". You can probably work out my opinion of the inbuilt testing framework - RocketUnit - from the title. That's really all you need to know to contextualise why I am now going to get TestBox working in a CFWheels context. One would expect that this would simply be a matter of installing TestBox and then using the CFWheels API to call methods on its classes to… um… use it. Not so fast there chief.https://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/05/cfwheels-running-testbox-instead-of.html Blog - Ben Nadel - GetBaseTagData() Works Differently In Adobe ColdFusion 2018 And Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47For a few weeks now, I've been slowly rolling out my ColdFusion custom tag DSL for HTML emails at InVision. And, it's been great! So, yesterday, I decided to start using it on my blog for the comment emails. However, InVision runs on Lucee CFML and my blog runs on Adobe ColdFusion 2018; and, it turns out that the getBaseTagData() function - which is a critical part of my DSL architecture - works completely different in the two ColdFusion runtimes.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4050-getbasetagdata-works-differently-in-adobe-coldfusion-2018-and-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Using The Elvis / Null Coalescing Operator To Loop Past Array Boundaries In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47The Elvis / null coalescing operator (?:) in Lucee CFML allows us to evaluate expressions that have fallback values if the left operand results in a null / undefined value. It's a powerful operator; and, can even replace the safe-navigation operator under certain circumstances. One place that I've been using it lately is when looping over an Array wherein I need to "cycle back" to the opposite end of the array upon hitting a boundary condition. I feel like it expresses the intent of the code quite cleanly. As such, I wanted to make a quick demo in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4049-using-the-elvis-null-coalescing-operator-to-loop-past-array-boundaries-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Pro Tip: Using The say Voice Synthesis Command After A Long-Running TaskThis is a pro-tip that I picked up from Aaron Lerch - using the say voice synthesis command after a long-running command-line task. Often times, at work, I'll have to run some sort of compilation process that can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes. And, in order to maximize my productivity, I'll use this compilation "down time" to perform other duties. However, so as to not let myself go down a rabbit hole, I'll append the say command so that I am alerted to the completion of the compilation.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4048-pro-tip-using-the-say-voice-synthesis-command-after-a-long-running-task.htm Blog - Brad Wood - Ortus Solutions - Have you taken the State of the CF Union 2021 survey?Our friends at TeraTech help put together a comprehensive survey of the entire CFML community to get a feel for how it's evolving, what new technologies are getting picked up, and what the current pain points are.  We use this data at Ortus to help us decide what CF engines to support and how to help the community.https://www.ortussolutions.com/blog/have-you-taken-the-state-of-the-cf-union-2021-survey Guide - Lucee - Installing and running Lucee with CommandBox on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Server and Apache2A step by step guide about installing and running Lucee with CommandBox behind Apache2 with AJP. The setup is made from a remote computer with Windows 10 using SSH X11 forwarding and Ubuntu's lightweight display manager lightdm from desktop interface xfce4. The first two steps are equal to the first two videos of the 'Installing Lucee on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Server Apache2 - Video Guide'.https://docs.lucee.org/guides/installing-lucee/installation-linux/linux-install-ubuntu-commandbox.html Tweet - Brad Wood - Lucee TricksTwo fun Lucee tricks for today. You can pass a Java InputStream into toString() and get back a single String without looping over the stream manually.toString( inputStream )Also, arrays can be dereferenced as arr[42]ORarr.42 and both work the same. #CFML #ColdFusionhttps://twitter.com/bdw429s/status/1392489753728192518 https://twitter.com/bdw429s Blog - Matthew Clemente - Group By or Order By Column Position in a SQL QueryFile this under interesting SQL features that I just learned - you can GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY the numeric column position in your SELECT statement, rather than writing out the full column identifier. If that’s unclear, an example should help clarify.https://blog.mattclemente.com/2021/05/11/sql-group-order-by-column-position.html Tweet - James Moberg - Yes and No vs True and False.@coldfusion YES & NO strings are allegedly treated as boolean values, but boolean values YES/NO.CFHTTP throws a hard error if you pass true/false instead of stringified YES/NO values. (Lucee #cfml logically accepts both data types.)WORKAROUND: Use YesNoFormat(). #lamehttps://twitter.com/gamesover/status/1392175380040192005 https://twitter.com/gamesover Blog - Wil De Bruin - Using commandbox Lucee for production This question will come back now and then on the coldfusion and boxteam slack, and until recently I would say: no problem! As CTO and owner of a hosting company I decided this setup was capable for production for several of our customers.
