SSH
I was having to enter my personal access token everytime I push cjanges to GitHub when writing in my blog because I am using Ubuntu on Windows Subsystem for Linux so it is not recognizing it as my host machine so today I learned how to add an SSH key to my GitHub account and then use it to push changes to my blog. The process was pretty straight forward and I really had no problems with it.

School starts back up in one week I am excited and nervous about it. I will have a lot more to write about once school starts up because I will be taking C# 2, Javascript, Security Fundamentals and writing 101. These are all classes that will make me a better developer so I am super excited to continue my coding journey and working with Carol on some new things and ideas that I will have.

After finishing my docker-compose file to connect MySQL database to the flask app I ran into another problem with creating the database tables, I thought this would be a straight forward thing to do and apparently it is not from all the research I have done on the issue so far. I will continue to document everything I try, what works and what does not, hopefully it will help someone with similar issues.

Today I was able to fix both of my problems I was having. The first one with creating a docker image with my flask app I was able to use a different python image from docker hub that was not labeled with “-alpine”, after that the build went successfully. My second issue was not being able to serve my hugo blogs web pages locally, I was able to fix this by going into the themes folder and running “git submodule init” & “git submodule update” which this actually solves two problems for me now I can get to the themes files so I should be able to add some CSS and style some of my pages the way I want to.
Read moreDOCKER BUILD ERRORS
I ran into a problem when building my docker image for my flask_app. When installing the requirements.txt file it breaks when it gets to pyscopg2, I tried to install the pyscopg2-binary because that seemed to work on another project when I ran into a similar problem but that did not work. I also updated Ubuntu on my desktop computer and the Hugo server is not working properly after that update. I will continue to document my progress and these are all things that are learning experiences.

I was able to solve the linked list problem on hacker rank and it was nowhere near as hard as I thought it was going to be. Although the way they set the problem up was a little different than any problem I seen when researching how linked list work in python. I also am trying to network with people more that way I can get different perspectives on things and see how other people solve the same problem.
Read moreLINKED LIST
Today I looked at my next problem to solve for 30 Days of Code on Hacker Rank and it is a Linked List problem this is all new to me and I am having a little trouble with it. I need to complete an insert functionso that it creates a new node and inserts it at the tail of the linked list refrenced by the head parameter. I think this will be the hardest problem to solve that I have had so far but after some research on the subject I am sure I will be able to solve it.

Today I added my certifications to my blog. I am trying to figure out how to add color to the text to kind of give it little style to my page so far everything I have read and tried has been unsuccessful. I have also been reading through Django’s documentation to try and get a better understanding of how to use the Django framework.
PORTFOLIO SETUP
Today I added some content to my portfolio. I have really been working hard on building projects to add to my portfolio and I am really happy with the result. This new blog using hugo is has really made things a lot easier for me to write and publish my content.
