Project Management Approach - Getting things done - Part 1

Waterfall and Agile Development - The successful mix !!!

Software development parts: planning, main development, implementing unpredicted tasks, tests & fixes, launch.

Preliminary conditions:
1) Don't start working without a plan
2) Take as much time as it takes in order to cover all project aspects (from the basic idea to every project's page)
3) Write down all project features (project description); this list will constitute the User Story (term used in Agile Development)
4) Create the Tasks List; this contains all user stories translated into programming tasks

Project implementation - depending on project size, you may change the values below:

4 day delivery
Main development - 2-3 days
Implementing unpredicted tasks - 0.5 days
Tests & fixes - 0.5 days
Launch - 0.2 days

3 day delivery
Main development - 2 days
Implementing unpredicted tasks - 0.4 days
Tests & fixes - 0.5 days
Launch - 0.1 days

In time, you will discover that planning is everything. Assuming the functionality is implemented 100% perfect, the success of the project depends ONLY on the quality of planning and specifications.

Backup local workspace to external hdd

Backup local development workspace to external hard drive or other storage devices.
Ubuntu backup files script

1. Plug in external disk

2. Create new mount point directory for the disk (/dev/sda1 in this example; to see which one is it, run df -h)
$ mkdir /mnt/My-External-Disk

3. Create backup dir
$ mkdir /mnt/My-External-Disk/backup-dir/

4. Create backup script sync-local.sh with content:

#!/bin/bash

ddir='/mnt/My-External-Disk'
bkpdir='/mnt/My-External-Disk/backup-dir/'

filesno=`ls $ddir | wc -l`
if [[ $filesno = 0 ]]; then
echo "mounting $ddir"
mount /dev/sda1 $ddir
fi

filesno=`ls $ddir | wc -l`
if [[ -d $bkpdir && $filesno > 0 ]]; then
echo "synchronizing dirs"
rsync -a --delete /home/user/dir1 $bkpdir
rsync -a --delete /home/user/dir2 $bkpdir
fi

# Make sure you check the line mount /dev/sda1 $ddir and replace with adequate device.

5. Make script executable
chmod +x sync-local.sh

6. Run it for test
$ sudo ./sync-local.sh

7. Create new cron entry for it ($ sudo mcedit /etc/crontab) and set it to run every 10 minutes:
*/10 * * * * root /path-to-script/sync-local.sh

Extra:
The script only runs if the backup directory exists. This is a protection in case another disk is plugged in and is assigned as "/dev/sda1". This way the script will always back up files only to the right disk.
