Host and deploy Angular web app using Azure and Github

I am using Angular v17 and node v18.
In simple steps;
Goto azure portal.
Create a new resource of type “Static Web App”
I choose Github as Deployment source.

Regarding Angular v17, I had problems with the github deployment build actions:

  • Node was configured as v16 but angular v17 needs node v18
  • path to index.html for dist build could not be found

After Azure has created the static web app for Github deployment the following file is pushed into the repo:

.github/workflow/azure-static-web-apps-[*].yml

I hade to set the following values correctly:

app_location: "./" # App source code path
output_location: "./dist/gps-tracker/browser" # Built app content directory - optional

The output location should point to where the index.html file is located.
You should change the ‘gps-tracker’ to your application name. To find out exactly run ‘ng build’ locally and look into the created dist folder.

Regarding setting node version to 18: I added the following in the yml file:

env:
  NODE_VERSION: '18.x'

Print screen of node version setting:

C# .NET – Generate error message when “async void” is used in code

The mentioned AsyncFixer extension and Nuget Package are super useful when dealing with async code. They both package a Roslyn analyzer that detects many async issues and provides an automatic fix for them as well in most cases. Using the .editorconfig in Visual Studio you can configure specific warnings as errors:
[*.cs] # AsyncFixer03: Fire-and-forget async-void methods or delegates dotnet_diagnostic.AsyncFixer03.severity = error
And you can set that straight from the Solution Explorer in case you’ve a

Use .http files in Visual Studio 2022

The Visual Studio 2022 .http file editor provides a convenient way to test ASP.NET Core projects, especially API apps. The editor provides a UI that:

  • Creates and updates .http files.
  • Sends HTTP requests specified in .http files.
  • Displays the responses.

This article contains documentation for:

The .http file format and editor was inspired by the Visual Studio Code REST Client extension. The Visual Studio 2022 .http editor recognizes .rest as an alternative file extension for the same file format.

How to set memory limit for ElasticSearch in Windows

Running elasticsearch on my local development machine takes up half of system memory by default. Here is instructions on how to change max memory size.

Prerequisites:
* Windows 10
* This instruction is for Elasticsearch version 7.16.2 but probably works on other versions as well
* Running elasticsearch.bat (in development mode not as a service)

Goto folder:
“C:\elasticsearch\elasticsearch-7.16.2\config\jvm.options.d\”
Create file:
“jvm.options” (normal text file, utf-8)
Setting for maximum of 4GB memory allocation:

-Xms4g
-Xmx4g

Change both “4” values into other value if desired.
Restart elasticservice.bat

Instructions if running elasticsearch as a service on Windows:

You can set the memory limit for Elastic Search on Windows Server by following command:

[Elasticsearch Path]\bin>elasticsearch-service.bat manager

Note: Run command prompt as administrator

It will open manager as shown here: Image: ElasticSearch service properties

Now go to the ‘Java’ tab and change settings based on your requirement.

Note: Make sure, you changed it under ‘JavaOptions’ textbox and also for separate parameters. For example, to set 1GB initial memory pool and maximum memory pool, you can set ‘1024’ MB for both.
