Gavin & Brad hosts this week's CFML News Podcast
They discussed CF Summit's AMA session with the online form, Hacktoberfest 2023 and Lucee's 5.3.10 RC
They also discussed Ortus' recent Webinar recap on ITB, and some upcoming Adobe Workshops and Webinars.
They discuss upcoming conferences, CF Summit, ITB Latam, Dev Nexus 2023 and ITB 2023.
They discuss what's new and coming soon with CFCasts as well... including free and paid content with more content each and every week.
They spotlight a lot of great blog posts, tweets, videos and podcasts, too many to list, so listen to the show.
They announce some jobs from getCfmlJobs.com and on the web... including some from the community and Ortus hiring another USA Developer.
They show off the ForgeBox module of the Week - cfScribe - CFScribe is an extension of LogBox which allows for more fine tuned and sophisticated routing of errors based on a wide variety of factors including environment, presence of http headers, ColdBox variables, System and Env variables, UDFs and more.
This week's VS Code Tip of the week is - File Utils - A convenient way of creating, duplicating, moving, renaming, deleting files and directories. Inspired by Sidebar Enhancements for Sublime.
They talked a little information about perks for their Patreon supporters, including Annual Memberships with a discount... and now new perks like the BoxTeam Slack Channel and Gavin had some more crazy ideas, looking for feedback on what Patreons want to see in the future... vote for that in the Boxteam Patreon Slack Channel.

Thursday, September 29, 2022 at 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM PDT
You may (or may not) have heard that CF2021 added (in 2020) a new command-line tool called CFSetup--but first, did you know that it could be used with ANY CF version, not just CF2021? And perhaps you heard its main value is to export/import CF Admin settings via JSON: it can indeed do that, and while that may excite some, others may yawn if they've "seen that elsewhere". (To be clear, it can export/import either ALL settings or selected ones.)

https://confs.tech/Blogs, Tweets, and Videos of the Week9/27/22 - Tweet - Brad Wood - Ortus Solutions For anyone using CommandBox's new-ish ModCFML support, I've added a new trick to CFConfig to be able to load CFConfig JSON files into each Lucee web context on startup which makes managing multiple contexts much easier. #CFML #ColdFusion #CLI

Which meant, if I had an optional or transient relationship between two entities in my database, I could query for a record and then simply check .recordCount on the CFQuery results to see if the relationship existed. Now, however, with a layered ColdFusion architecture that boasts a strong separation of concerns, that raw data is abstracted away; and, while many things have become easier, dealing with these transient relationships has become a bit harder. And, I'm still trying to figure out how to best handle this in ColdFusion.

He was creating some resources and just wanted to return the id of the value upon creation. So for example this call:

Much like Into The Box earlier this month, the CF Summit is a must-attend event for anyone looking to stay up on CFML development practices. And the agenda includes enough content for non-CFML developers, that I’d also encourage Engineering Managers and other techies to attend. (Really, this is true of most tech content — a lot of it is easily applicable to different environments.) Not registered yet?

Not only do indexes lead to greatly improved performance, they can also be used to enforce data integrity and drive idempotent workflows. Earlier this year, I looked at some of the techniques that MySQL provides for gracefully reacting to key-conflicts; but, one thing that I completely missed in that exploration was the fact that key-conflict errors still increment the table's underlying AUTO_INCREMENT value.
