Prefixes to variables

I try to stick to these conventions:

Prefixes of variable names

• str, int, bo ... = strings, integers, booleans ...
  • Ex: intShoeSize=42
• Str, Int, Bo ... = arrays, objects or other containters that only contains variables of a certain type (containing only strings, integer, boolean ....)
  • • Note! generally I prefer no plural-s in the end of the variable name. (The "plurality" is signified by the capital first letter.)
  • Ex: IntShoeSize=[42, 43, 47]
  • Ex: IntShoeSize={Adam:42, Bob:47}

Prefixes and suffixes of path variables:

Ex:

Assume we have (the absolute paths):

/var/www/example/aaa/myFile.txt (a file)
/var/www/example/aaa/bbb (a folder)

These are in turn also accessable via a static webserver as:

http://example.com/aaa/myFile.txt
http://example.com/aaa/bbb

Suffix

• F = folder
  • Ex: leafMyPathF = "bbb"

Prefixes

• leaf = Name of the path-part furthest from the root
  • Ex: leafMyPath = "myFile.txt"
  • Ex: leafMyPathF = "bbb"
• f = Path relative to filesystem-root.
  • Ex: fMyPath="var/www/aaa/myFile.txt"
  • Ex: fMyPathF="var/www/aaa/bbb"
• w = Path relative to webroot ("mounting point" of file tree, that can be accessed via a webserver).
  • Ex: wMyPath = "aaa/myFile.txt"
  • Ex: wMyPathF = "aaa/bbb"
• fl = Local path (not necessarily relative to anything)
  • Ex: flMyPathF = "example/aaa/bbb"
  • Ex: flMyPathF = "www/example/aaa/bbb"
• fi = Interpreted path (Interpreted by software such as bash, pythons os.path.realpath() etc. )
  • Ex: fiMyPathF = "~//aaa/../aaa//bbb"
• u = url
  • Ex: uMyPath="http://example.com/aaa/myFile.txt"
  • Ex: uMyPathF="http://example.com/aaa/bbb"
  • Ex: ueMyPathF="http://example.com/aaa/bbb/"
• www = url without "http://"
  • Ex: wwwMyPath="example.com/aaa/myFile.txt"
  • Ex: wwwMyPathF="example.com/aaa/bbb"
  • Ex: wwweMyPathF="example.com/aaa/bbb/"

Modifiers to prefixes

• *s = adding a '/' in front (start) of the path.
• *e = adding a '/' in the end of the path.
• Examples:
  • wsMyPathF="/aaa/bbb"
  • weMyPathF=="aaa/bbb/"
  • wseMyPathF=="/aaa/bbb/"
  • fsMyPathF="/var/www/aaa/bbb"
  • fseMyPathF="/var/www/aaa/bbb/"
