"Top X" UI

Doing some experiments with data at work, one of the common tasks was "show top X items". However X was changing all the time. Finally I came out with a web based UI where you can set the top yourself. Hopefully someone else will find it useful.

Key points:

• Using jQuery, jQuery UI and flot
• Site is static, no backend needed
• Data is generated to a .js file

You can see a demo on word frequency of "Alice In Wonderland" here.


As usual, the code is in bitbucket.

Crucible Command Line Client

At work, we use Crucible (which I mostly like). However we do reviews post commit (using feature branches). And creating a review from a patch is too much clicks to my taste. Hence crucible command line client. You can install it with easy_install crucible and then run it.

crucible has many options, but you can save many defaults in ~/.cruciblerc (see example at top of the crucible script).
