CentOS + AngularJS

Doing AngularJS development for work.  Relatively new, but getting things done.  Have learned the angular.element($0).scope() command to let me poke around in FireBug, but find it, well, lacking.  Batarang appears to be the thing to practically use…

Batarang is a Chrome extension.  The machines at work are CentOS.  CentOS apparently doesn’t just nicely have Chrome.  It could have Chromium, which would apparently support Batarang, but our yum repos don’t have such nice artifacts within them.

Geek hack of the day: ssh tunnel into my CentOS machine from another machine which does have Chrome.  Install Batarang on that other machine.  Invoke my web app in the remote machine, over ssh tunneling, as if it were localhost.  Bada-bing.  Final note: add to the dev wiki at work to help the next guy/gal out, rather than have them beat their heads against the same wall.  Software developer productivity win.
