How can I check who has added a package to cdnjs? - aws-amplify

I'm using aws-amplify package in my website using cdnjs. But i want to clear my doubts regarding security. I have searched on google but not found how any package is added to cdnjs. I just only want to confirm there is no middle man between aws-amplify and me. Please can someone explain me how packages are added to cdnjs and how to check the information regarding that.

clear my doubts regarding security
The About Us page for cdnjs states that they are powered by Cloudflare.
You're pretty much using one of the safest CDNs out there.
how packages are added to cdnjs
You won't find any information on that as they simply just compile/publish the open-source code available on GitHub. There's no other way.
You have no reason for any worry.

Riak Docs not working

Can anyone tell why Riak website is not working this time from a few days.
http://docs.basho.com/riak/ts/1.5.2/using/core-fundamentals/
this link of riak is not working.
Shahzad, Basho as a company doesn't really exist any more (https://www.theregister.co.uk/AMP/2017/07/31/end_of_the_road_for_basho_as_court_puts_biz_into_receivership/) so it might be related to that. If you are relying on resources provided by Basho you might want to make copies of those resources before they vanish forever.
Update: Looks like the resources have been acquired and everything will get open sourced soon. See: http://lists.basho.com/pipermail/riak-users_lists.basho.com/2017-August/019500.html
We (my company) have hosted a mirror of the docs generated out of the basho_doc project. Feel free to use:
https://riak.docs.hw.ag/
Riak documentation is still accessible via the basho_doc GitHub repository.
And particularly the document you are looking for https://github.com/basho/basho_docs/blob/15a97f6a2c82f77e8248d5151171bd2f7b88e11b/content/riak/ts/1.5.2/using/core-fundamentals.md. It's not as nice as a Web page, but still readable.

Please advice about security issue when using bitbucket

I am new and I am not sure if this is a place to ask this question.
I developed a web site alone using wordpress framework.
Now, I got a guy who I don't know much to join me to develop the site. We live in different countries and we decide to use Bitbucket for code management.
I do not have any experiences in team working, Bitbucket.
My concerns are:
1. Do I need to upload both source code and database to Bitbucket?
Do you think he will just take all the source code and database and make his own website and become my competitor?
What should I be careful when working in a team? I mean sharing code.
I know maybe I am quite small-minded. I am worried about security problems.
But definitely, I need to have someone to work with me to develop the site.
Please advice and write any sources that are useful for this problem.
Thank you.
I'm not an expert in Wordpress, but the concept still applies:
Source code: yes. Database: no, only the database schema/ SQL scripts to recreate it.
Depends on his ethics. You should reach an agreement with him that guarantees that he won't do so, by writing a contract for example.
Take the following into consideration: coding standards, conventions are followed in naming variables, pages, urls, etc, repository privacy is set correctly, repository privileges are distributed to enable the contributors to do only what they're supposed to do.
I'll leave the rest to you and other fellows on this website to figure out depending on your experience :)

Symfony-cmf routing step by step

The symfony-cmf documentation is a nightmare, it is really hard to understand and it seems that many of it is outdated.
I think I have understood the routing concept, but I can't figure how to implement it, clearly.
How to register a router?
How to setup dynamic routing?
How to persist a document and map a route?
FYI 1.1 was been released and the documentation has been updated accordingly.
I am sorry to hear that. If you run on 1.0, things should not be outdated, except for some cookbook entries which have a note at their head. The 1.1 documentation is not online yet as we currently can only publish one version of the doc. That is only available on github.
Your questions however are answered by both versions:
http://symfony.com/doc/master/cmf/bundles/routing/introduction.html#loading-routers-with-tagging
http://symfony.com/doc/master/cmf/bundles/routing/dynamic.html - also the sandbox is a good example to see this in action
http://symfony.com/doc/master/cmf/bundles/routing/dynamic.html#the-phpcr-odm-route-document
If you have inputs how we can make it easier to find the way through the doc or at which point in the quick tour / book you got lost, please open issues (or even better pull requests) on the symfony-cmf-docs github repository.

plugin for latest version and FAQ's

I am developing a new plugin for wordpress. I will put it on own site which is developed in wordpress, so other can download and use it.
I want to give the revision facility like updated version of plugin with old version available on site and FAQ's etc. is there any plugin which can control this.
Thanks
WordPress was only really developed to manage revisions of posts, not software (as far as I know), but GitHub is pretty cool, you should definitely look into it. You can use it to help you develop and get others to help out too. It makes your work publicly available without you having to purchase any hosting or worry about setting up a site for it.
There is a little bit of a learning curve for git, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be thankful you started using it.
And just to clarify, git is a version control system. GitHub is a place where you can keep your git repository, and it makes your life super easy in doing so.
Here are some research links for you...
https://github.com/
http://git-scm.com/
If you wanted to, you could still create that Wordpress site, but have your commits or tags (not too sure about the latter) tied to a feed, so whenever a new one is up on GitHub, it gets picked up by your site automatically.
Just some food for thought anyway :)...
Good luck!

Paypal PayFlow Pro Asp.Net configuration

So, this does not necessarily have to do directly with the code itself, although it is certainly a component of it.
I recently downloaded and installed the PayFlow Pro SDK for use with ASP.net
link here:
https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/library_download_sdks
I installed this to my development machine. I also came accross this example code which I figured outlined the primary setup for basic Paypal Credit Card Transaction functionality.
link here:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/PayPal_PayflowPro.aspx
Anyways, I have two main questions
Do I have to install the SDK on the web hosts server in order to utilize the functionality of it? This seems to make sense, however, the tutorial in the second link suggests I create a web reference. Unless I am not understanding something here, wouldn't this just strictly work on my development machine, or at least, the functionality of the remote website that references this web reference to access the sdk, would this not be dependent on my computer running and broadcasting this information?
I just need clarification on how to install and/or access the sdk for use on a remote webhosts server (ie. do i need to install the sdk on the web-hosts server and if so, how would one go about doing so (ie. where to install, how to install)?).
Are there any other clean cut examples like my second link provides, that sort of outline the basic functionality of Payflow Pro? I find paypal's examples numerous and convoluted and their online slides/video tutorials to be tedious.
Perhaps I should just get off my lazy ass, but I have found peers from the general community to be much more informative in a way more efficient manner, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
For anyone interested, after enough searching I found a great example that notified me of all the fundamental processes to creating a basic transaction and allowed me the knowledge to further manipulate the sdk.
