Installing Jetbrains' Webstorm on Ubuntu 14.04

Continuing on with the setup of my system, I thought I would go ahead and install Jetbrains' Webstorm and give it a go as an IDE given they have Meteor as a "first-class citizen." Here is what I did:

If you do not have a JDK installed, install Open JDK 7 from Ubuntu Software Center.

From https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/download/ get the latest 
In the directory of the download unpack the WebStorm-*.tar.gz file using the following command:
tar xfz WebStorm-*.tar.gz
Run WebStorm.sh from the bin subdirectory.

If you want you can create a Launcher on your Desktop via gnome-panel:
gnome-desktop-item-edit ~/Desktop/ --create-new
Then, for the name something like Webstorm.  :-)
For the Command text box browse to the WebStorm.sh file in the bin folder and select it as the command. 

Also, you can change the icon that is displayed on the desktop by selecting the default icon and then browsing to the Webstorm/bin folder and selecting the webide.png file. Finally, select the OK button and you should be good to go.

Ubuntu Linux 14.04, Heroku PostgreSQL, and getting production data to your local DB

I just completed a clean upgrade (meaning that I did a fresh install)  from Ubuntu Linux 12.04 to the new long term support version of 14.04. Of course that means that my develope environment needed to be setup on the system. Database servers, code bases, etc. I wanted a backup of my Heroku PostgreSQL databases to restore to my local database. Since I literally just went through the process, I thought it best to record the steps:

From the command prompt:
sudo wget -qO- https://toolbelt.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh

Then, after a successful install from the prompt:
heroku login
Validate your account.

Then do the following to create a dump from which to restore locally:
heroku pgbackups --app herokuAppNameHere

Now get the URL of the dump
heroku pgbackups:url --app herokuAppNameHere

Browse to the URL via a Ctrl+Click on the link or copy the link into a web browser. Once you have the file, change into the folder with the dump file via a cd folderNameHere.

From the command prompt:
pg_restore --verbose --clean --no-acl --no-owner -h localhost -U dbAccountHere -d dbNameHere dumpFileName.dump

If all went well you should have a local copy of your production data from Heroku.
