Fix: Convert Karate html report to PDF format

 Karate provides HTML reports that you can convert to PDF format using various methods. One common approach is to use a headless browser like Puppeteer in Node.js to capture a screenshot of the HTML report and then save it as a PDF. Here's a step-by-step guide:


1. **Install Node.js:**

   Make sure you have Node.js installed on your system.


2. **Create a Node.js Project:**

   Set up a new Node.js project or navigate to your existing project directory.


3. **Install Puppeteer:**

   Install the Puppeteer library, which provides a high-level API to control headless browsers. You can do this by running the following command in your project directory:


   ```

   npm install puppeteer

   ```


4. **Write a Node.js Script:**

   Create a Node.js script to load the Karate HTML report and convert it to a PDF. Below is an example script:


   ```javascript

   const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');


   (async () => {

     const browser = await puppeteer.launch();

     const page = await browser.newPage();

     

     // Load the Karate HTML report URL

     await page.goto('URL_TO_YOUR_KARATE_HTML_REPORT');


     // Optionally, you can wait for some time to ensure the page is fully loaded

     await page.waitForTimeout(5000);


     // Specify the PDF file path

     const pdfFilePath = 'karate_report.pdf';


     // Capture a screenshot of the HTML report and save it as a PDF

     await page.pdf({ path: pdfFilePath, format: 'A4' });


     console.log(`PDF report saved to ${pdfFilePath}`);


     await browser.close();

   })();

   ```


   Replace `'URL_TO_YOUR_KARATE_HTML_REPORT'` with the actual URL of your Karate HTML report.


5. **Run the Node.js Script:**

   Save the script as a `.js` file and execute it using Node.js:


   ```

   node convertToPDF.js

   ```


6. **View the PDF:**

   The PDF file (`karate_report.pdf` in this example) will be generated in your project directory. You can view and share the PDF report as needed.


This script uses Puppeteer to open the HTML report in a headless browser, wait for a specified time to ensure the page is fully loaded, and then capture it as a PDF. Adjust the script to fit your specific needs and URL.

bad character U+002D '-' in my helm template

 In Helm templates, the hyphen character (`-`) can sometimes be treated as a reserved character, particularly when defining values or labels. To include a hyphen character in a Helm template without issues, you can use one of the following approaches: 1. **Quoting the Hyphen:**    You can enclose the hyphen in double quotes, like this:    ```yaml    key: "-"    ```    This way, Helm will interpret the hyphen as a string rather than an operator. 2. **Using Backticks:**    If you need to use the hyphen within a Go template function or inside backticks, you can escape it with a backslash (`\`), like this:    ```yaml    value: `{{ .Values.someField | printf "%s \\-" }}`    ```    The backslash prevents Helm from interpreting the hyphen as a special character. 3. **Variable Assignment:**    Assign the value to a variable and use it. For example:    ```yaml    {{- $hyphen := "-" }}    key: {{ $hyphen }}    ```    This way, you can use the variable `$hyphen` wher

GitLab pipeline stopped working with invalid yaml error

 When your GitLab pipeline has stopped working with an "invalid YAML" error, it means there's a problem with your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. This could be due to syntax errors, incorrect indentation, or other issues in your pipeline configuration. Here's how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue: 1. **Check for Syntax Errors**:    Carefully review your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file for any syntax errors. Common issues include missing colons, indentation problems, or mismatched quotation marks. Use a YAML linter or an online YAML validator to identify and correct syntax errors. 2. **Indentation**:    YAML relies heavily on proper indentation. Make sure that all lines within the same block have consistent indentation (typically using spaces, not tabs). Incorrect indentation can cause YAML parsing errors. 3. **Dashes and Lists**:    Ensure that you use the correct syntax for lists (arrays) in YAML by starting each item with a dash (`-`). Be consistent with your use of dashes throug

How do I add a printer in OpenSUSE which is being shared by a CUPS print server?

 To add a printer in openSUSE that is being shared by a CUPS print server, you can use the following steps: 1. **Ensure CUPS Client is Installed:**    Make sure your openSUSE system has the CUPS client tools installed. You can install them using the following command:    ```bash    sudo zypper install cups-client    ``` 2. **Discover Available Printers:**    Use the `lpinfo` command to discover available printers on your CUPS print server. Replace `cups-server-hostname` with the hostname or IP address of your CUPS server:    ```bash    lpinfo -v -h cups-server-hostname:631    ```    This command should list the printers shared by the CUPS server. 3. **Add a Printer:**    Use the `lpadmin` command to add a printer. Replace `printer-name` with the name of the printer you want to add and `printer-uri` with the URI obtained from the `lpinfo` command:    ```bash    sudo lpadmin -p printer-name -E -v printer-uri    ```    For example:    ```bash    sudo lpadmin -p MyPrinter -E -v socket://cu
