I have a web service that requires special headers to be sent in the request. I am able to retrieve expected responseXMLs using an XMLHttpRequest and setRequestHeader().
Now I would like to create a new tab (or window) containing the response document. I would like the default XMLPrettyPrint.xsl file applied to it and when the source is viewed, I'd like to see the un-styled source as when viewing a normal .xml file.
Any ideas?
I ended up creating a protocol handler.
The biggest trick that I didn't find to be documented well was the fact that the XPCOM contract ID must start with "#mozilla.org/network/protocol;1?name=". E.g.,:
/* as in foo:// . This is called the scheme. */
var thisIsWhatMyProtocolStartsWith = "foo";
var contractID = "#mozilla.org/network/protocol;1?name=" + thisIsWhatMyProtocolStartsWith;

I have a collection called customer_devices and I can't change the name. Can I expose it via deployd as /devices ? How?
There are a few ways that I can think of. If you really just want to rename the collection, you can do so from the dashboard, as #thomasb mentioned in his answer.
Alternatively, you can create a "proxy" event resource devices and forward all queries to customer_devices. For example, in devices/get.js you would say
dpd.customer_devices.get(query, function(res, err) {
if (err) cancel(err);
setResult(res);
});
Update
Finally, here is a "hack" to redirect all requests from one resource path to a different path. This is poorly tested so use at your own risk. This requires that you set up your own server as explained here. Once you have that, you can modify the routing behaviour using this snippet:
server.on('listening', function() {
var customer_devices = server.router.resources.filter(function (res) {
return res.path === '/customer_devices';
})[0];
// Make a copy of the Object's prototype
var devices = Object.create(customer_devices);
// Shallow copy the properties
devices = extend(devices, customer_devices);
// Change the routing path
devices.path = "/devices";
// Add back to routing cache
server.router.resources.push(devices);
});
This will take your customer_devices resource, copy it, change the path, and re-insert it into the cached routing table. I tested it and it works, but I won't guarantee that it's safe or a good idea...
Can't you change the name via dashboard?
Mouseover your collection customer_devices
Click the down arrow
Select 'Rename'
Enter the new name and click 'Rename'
I've written a console app using the Umbraco (7.1.4) contentService API to move some nodes and rename them in a site redesign. It all works fine except when I rename the document the 'Link to Document' doesn't change. The code is adapted from https://github.com/sitereactor/umbraco-console-example.
private static void MoveNode(IContentService contentService, int nodeId, int newParentId, string newname)
{
//Get the Root Content
var nodeContent = contentService.GetByIds(nodeId.AsEnumerableOfOne()).First();
nodeContent.Name = newname;
contentService.Move(nodeContent, newParentId);
var status = contentService.SaveAndPublishWithStatus(nodeContent);
Console.WriteLine(status);
}
Status is True and the page name is changed when I look at it in back office but the 'Link to Document' doesn't change. Now if I use
var status = contentService.PublishWithChildrenWithStatus(nodeContent);
Then it works but takes a lot longer (minutes), but if I change the name in back office then it only takes seconds but the links are updated correctly. Is there another way to rename a document without Publishing all the children?
(I've left out a bit of code in the above - sometimes it moves sometimes it just renames, but in either case I have to publish with the children to get it to work.)
It seems this happens because the XML cache file has not been updated.
Have a look here for a few ways of doing it
http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/api-cheatsheet/publishing-and-republishing
Or the quickest is just delete APP_Data\umbraco.config - the XML cache file, probably not recommended for Prod but gets things working quickly in dev.
I am looking to write a small firefox add-on that detects when files that were downloaded are (or have been) deleted locally and removes the corresponding entry in the firefox download list.
Can anybody point me to the relevant api to manipulate the download list? I cannot seem to find it.
The relevant API is PlacesUtils which abstracts the complexity of the Places database.
If your code runs in the context of a chrome window then you get a PlacesUtils glabal variable for free. Otherwise (bootstrapped, Add-on SDK, whatever) you have to import PlacesUtils.jsm.
Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/PlacesUtils.jsm");
As far as Places is concerned, downloaded files are nothing more than a special kind of visited pages, annotated accordingly. It's a matter of just one line of code to get an array of all downloaded files.
var results = PlacesUtils.annotations.getAnnotationsWithName("downloads/destinationFileURI");
Since we asked for the destinationFileURI annotation, each element of the resultarray holds the download location in the annotationValue property as a file: URI spec string.
With that you can check if the file actually exists
function getFileFromURIspec(fileurispec){
// if Services is not available in your context Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm");
var filehandler = Services.io.getProtocolHandler("file").QueryInterface(Ci.nsIFileProtocolHandler);
try{
return filehandler.getFileFromURLSpec(fileurispec);
}
catch(e){
return null;
}
}
getFileFromURIspec will return an instance of nsIFile, or null if the spec is invalid which shouldn't happen in this case but a sanity check never hurts. With that you can call the exists() method and if it returns false then the associated page entry in Places is eligible for removal. We can tell which is that page by its uri, which conveniently is also a property of each element of the results.
PlacesUtils.bhistory.removePage(result.uri);
To sum it up
var results = PlacesUtils.annotations.getAnnotationsWithName("downloads/destinationFileURI");
results.forEach(function(result){
var file = getFileFromURIspec(result.annotationValue);
if(!file){
// I don't know how you should treat this edge case
// ask the user, just log, remove, some combination?
}
else if(!file.exists()){
PlacesUtils.bhistory.removePage(result.uri);
}
});
I have kept a word document (.docx) in one of the project folders which I want to use as a template.
This template contains custom header and footer lines for user. I want to facilitate user to download his own data in word format. For this, I want to write a function which will accept user data and referring the template it will create a new word file replacing the place-holders in the template and then return the new file for download (without saving it to server). That means the template needs to be intact as template.
Following is what I am trying. I was able to replace the placeholder. However, I am not aware of how to give the created content as downloadable file to user. I do not want to save the new content again in the server as another word file.
public void GenerateWord(string userData)
{
string templateDoc = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Template.docx");
// Open the new Package
Package pkg = Package.Open(templateDoc, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite);
// Specify the URI of the part to be read
Uri uri = new Uri("/word/document.xml", UriKind.Relative);
PackagePart part = pkg.GetPart(uri);
XmlDocument xmlMainXMLDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlMainXMLDoc.Load(part.GetStream(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read));
xmlMainXMLDoc.InnerXml = ReplacePlaceHoldersInTemplate(userData, xmlMainXMLDoc.InnerXml);
// Open the stream to write document
StreamWriter partWrt = new StreamWriter(part.GetStream(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write));
xmlMainXMLDoc.Save(partWrt);
partWrt.Flush();
partWrt.Close();
pkg.Close();
}
private string ReplacePlaceHoldersInTemplate(string toReplace, string templateBody)
{
templateBody = templateBody.Replace("#myPlaceHolder#", toReplace);
return templateBody;
}
I believe that the below line is saving the contents in the template file itself, which I don't want.
xmlMainXMLDoc.Save(partWrt);
How should I modify this code which can return the new content as downloadable word file to user?
I found the solution Here!
This code allows me to read the template file and modify it as I want and then to send response as downloadable attachment.
I would like to print reports in icefaces, but could got find any proper method for it. Please guide me for implementation of the same in my project.
I've used the ice:outputResource tag to let the user download a PDF report file. The resource attribute of that tag should point a managed bean property that implements com.icesoft.faces.context.Resource.
after getting idea from JOTN I'm finally able to put it together.
We can use the outputresource tag to link to any type of resource, not only static ones but also dynamically generated files(on the fly).
Let us have a look at the following example:
JSF Page:
..
..
<ice:outputResource id="outputResource1" attachment="false" fileName="File1.pdf" label="Click to download attachment" mimeType="application/pdf" rendered="true" resource="#{ReportParam01.reportfilers}" shared="false"/>
..
..
Here I've observed that the outputresource link won't appear until the file is actually generated(i case of on the fly documents).
Let us assume we wish to generate a pdf file dynamically. The following steps will link it to the above mentioned outputrespurce.
Managed Bean:
public class....{
....
// This is the resource linked to the <ice:outputresource> tag.
// Encapsulation has been done to link it.
Reource reportfilers;
....
public void createDocument() {
Document reportDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4);
File file1 = new File("Report.pdf");
PdfWriter.getInstance(reportDoc, new FileOutputStream(f));
// writing to pdf code continues
reportfilers = new FileResource(file1);
}
....
....
}
Calling the above method (if it has no exceptions) will make the link to show up and the user can download the file.
