Install packages from git repo using pip

Packages in git repo (or hg, svn, bzr) can be installed with "pip install -e" directly. Base on the help message of "pip install", we have

  -e VCS+REPOS_URL[@REV]#egg=PACKAGE, --editable=VCS+REPOS_URL[@REV]#egg=PACKAGE
                        Install a package directly from a checkout. Source
                        will be checked out into src/PACKAGE (lower-case) and
                        installed in-place (using setup.py develop). You can
                        run this on an existing directory/checkout (like pip
                        install -e src/mycheckout). This option may be
                        provided multiple times. Possible values for VCS are:
                        svn, git, hg and bzr.


To use it, first make sure you have git installed. Such as "sudo apt-get install git-core" on ubuntu. And then you may follow the below examples(install redis-py):

# Install from master
pip install -e git+https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py.git#egg=redis-py
# Install a branch
pip install -e git+https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py.git@pubsub#egg=redis-py
# Install a tag
pip install -e git+https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py.git@2.8.0#egg=redis-py
# Install a commit
pip install -e git+https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py.git@90ba027#egg=redis-py

Base on this post in stackoverflow, you may also specify a line in the requirment file(like reqs.txt):

-e git+https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py.git@90ba027#egg=redis-py

And then, install it with "pip install -r reqs.txt".

A simple implementation of DTW(Dynamic Time Warping) in C#/python

DTW(Dynamic Time Warping) is a very useful tools for time series analysis. This is a very simple (but not very efficient) c# implementation of DTW, the source code is available at  https://gist.github.com/1966342  . Use the program as below: double[] x = {9,3,1,5,1,2,0,1,0,2,2,8,1,7,0,6,4,4,5}; double[] y = {1,0,5,5,0,1,0,1,0,3,3,2,8,1,0,6,4,4,5}; SimpleDTW dtw = new SimpleDTW(x,y); dtw.calculateDTW(); The python implementation is available at  https://gist.github.com/3265694  . from python-dtw import Dtw import math dtw = Dtw([1, 2, 3, 4, 6], [1, 2, 3, 5],           distance_func=lambda x, y: math.fabs(x - y)) print dtw.calculate() #calculate the distance print dtw.get_path() #calculate the mapping path

Install mysql-python with mariadb

mysql-python requires libmysqlclient-dev in ubuntu, but the installation of mariadb will have the lib with unmet dependenccies, so the error of "mysql_config not found" may occurred if you install mysql-python via pip. The case is that mariadb has a compatible package, if you have the ppa setup as in  http://downloads.mariadb.org/ . Just "sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev".

The default CREATE TABLE options for Aria Engine in mariadb

The official document of mariadb does not mention the default CREATE TABLE options for tables using Aria Engine.  The default options are list as below: TRANSACTIONAL,  the default value is TRANSACTIONAL=0, i.e., non-transactional. ROW_FORMAT, the default value is ROW_FORMAT=PAGE, which may suits both transactional and non-transactional tables. PAGE_CHECKSUM,  the default value will follow aria_page_checksum system variable, which has default value ON. For the TRANSACTIONAL option, you may consider create a table as below(and ALTER the TRANSACTIONAL=1): CREATE TABLE `test_table` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=Aria; If you change the ROW_FORMAT to DYNAMIC or FIXED, everything just goes fine. But if you have ALTER the table with TRANSACTION=1 and change the ROW_FORMAT to DYNAMIC or FIXED, you may got a warning: SHOW WARNINGS; +-------+------+----------------------------------------------------------+ | Level | Code | Message | +-------+--
