- *Smuggling Snakes in a Box: A Docker + Python Love Story*
By: Hector Rios
Experience Level: Novice
Do you yearn? Have you ever tried to volunteer at a project but had an
extremely difficult time trying to get everyone the right development
environment? Do you ever work with a project that works in your computer
but not in a server? Do you have a different dependency versions? (btw,
that's kinda bad practice but don't fret, we gotchu) Yearn no more! With
Docker, these things can be a thing of the past. Join in a brief, live
coding session that will show you how to build a simple Bottle app and put
it into a Docker container.
- *Python in the Classroom and at Sea*
By: Thane Richard
I was Ray's mentee during the summer of 2016. My project lets a player
of Minecraft Pi 3D print an object they have built in the game. I will
co-present this project with Peg Keiner, the Technology Director at GEMS
World Academy in Chicago where my program was used in their elementary
school classroom this Fall. I will also share some neat projects from my
stint this Fall as a High School Marine Science teacher aboard the schooner
Roseway during Ocean Classroom (worldoceanschool.org). I introduced
students to Python and had them design and code a sensor kit with Raspberry
Pi's to measure an aspect of the sailboat. The code is viewable on my
github profile: https://github.com/thaneofcawdor.
- *Using pyodbc to execute SQL queries*
By: Anish Krishnan
How to access a database using pyodbc, and how to execute basic queries
through Python.
Thanks always to all our Platinum sponsors, especially: Braintree,
Imaginary Landscape, and Telnyx.
Please be aware of our code of conduct http://www.chipy.org/pages/conduct/
