pv is a nice little tool that will take stdin and make a nice little
progress bar and displaying time elapsed, percentage completed (if size is known)
current throughput rate and the total data transferred and with an ETA.
So if you have a tool that can output it’s result on standard output or read from standard input, one can get a progress bar!
It’s nice to know that “data is flowing”.
Other examples
Send file with Netcat and get a nice progress-bar:
pv file | nc -w 1 example.com 3000
Get progress bar on tar output:
tar zcf - /directory | pv > backup.tar.gz
MySQL dump/restore:
mysqldump database | pv > database.sql
pv database.sql | mysql database
Limit the transfer rate and size of data over a pipe
cat /dev/zero | pv -L 3m -Ss 100m > /dev/null
Kom igång med Matrix, skapa en Synapse server
I den här artikeln kommer vi att gå igenom hur man sätter upp en minimal installation av en Matrix homeserver med Synapse-implementationen. Denna server kommer att kunna federera med andra servrar, för att fullt ut delta i det offentliga Matrix-nätverket.
TLDR: Ifall du vill köra på snabbspåret, kika längst ner i artikeln, där finns det en sammanfattning som endast innehåller konfigurationsfilerna.
