Reading Time: < 1 minute It is quite evident what SOLID principles mean for class typed object oriented languages like Java. However, what do they mean for hybrid languages like Scala which merge the Object oriented and functional approaches. In this KnolX session, we tried to decipher what SOLID principles meant for Scala. Though much of what we know about them can be applied to Scala if we code in Continue Reading

Reading Time: < 1 minute In this session , I will explain about built-in control structures in SCALA . Knolx Session : Built-In Control Structures in Scala from ayushmishra2005
Reading Time: < 1 minute In this section , I will explain how to re-render HTML Template without loading the browser . You can refresh HTML template without loading browser via AJAX using Scala and Ltft . Lift provides SHtml.memoize which memoize the NodeSeq used in apply() and then call applyAgain() in an Ajax call . You can re render a particular template part of HTML page or complete page Continue Reading
Reading Time: < 1 minute This session was presented at Knoldus knowledge session. There is a wonderful post on Category Theory by Debashish Ghosh. This presentation is inspired by his post here. Here is the presentation.
Reading Time: < 1 minute In this section , I will explain how to implement Geolocation using Scala and Lift . You can easily fetch user’s current location or near by location by his IP address . 1) You will need API key to be able to use . To get API key , just Go to IPInfoDB . 2) Get user’s IP address var ipAddress: String = "" S.containerRequest.map(r Continue Reading
Reading Time: < 1 minute As we know , Cookie is a small piece of data which is sent from a website and stored in a user’s web browser while a user is browsing a website. Next time , when user browses , cookie can be retrieved . Cookies are essentially a token of string data that is stored on the user’s machine. In this section , I will explain Continue Reading
Reading Time: < 1 minute Welcome to another week of KnolX sessions .The emphasis in this session is on classes that define functional objects, that is,objects that do not have any mutable state.Along the way, this session will show you more aspects of object-oriented programming in Scala: class parameters and constructors, methods and operators, private members, overriding, checking preconditions, overloading, and self references.
Reading Time: < 1 minute This session was presented at Knolx Session at Knoldus. I introduced implicit conversions and parameters in scala. Implicit conversion allows us to fix type errors and allows us to define new methods on existing library. Here is the presentation
Reading Time: < 1 minute Welcome to another week of KnolX sessions . In this session , we see the power of the Scala’s Extractors . Extractors give you a way to create your own kinds of patterns. You can write patterns without creating an associated case class. Knolx Session: Introducing Extractors in Scala from ayushmishra2005
Reading Time: < 1 minute Functions & closures from Knoldus Software LLP
Reading Time: < 1 minute Akka allows us to write concurrent, fault tolerant and scalable applications. We recently migrated our product from Akka 1.3x to Akka 2.x. The new version is quite different from 1.3x versions. It is not merely an API change but an overall change. We have to also think differently to develop applications. This session was presented at Knolx Session at Knoldus. This talk gently introduces Akka Continue Reading
Reading Time: < 1 minute As multi-core becomes a standard, writing code which can harness the power of the cores remains a formidable challenge. The following KnolX session, tried to decode how scala is trying to give us an advantage by providing us parallel collections. It also discusses, which scenarios lend themselves to parallel processing and discusses the pitfalls of others.
