CockroachDB and Docker Compose

This is the first in a series of tutorials on CockroachDB and Docker Compose

• Information on CockroachDB can be found here.
• Information on Docker Compose can be found here

1. Install Docker Desktop

Because we already have an official CockroachDB docker image, we will use that in our docker-compose.yml file. We recommend you use one of the current tags instead of latest.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

function askPassword(callback) {
  var stdin = process.openStdin(),
      stdio = process.binding("stdio");

  stdio.setRawMode();

  console.log('Enter your password:');
  var password = "";
  stdin.on("data", function(c) {
    c = c + "";

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.
