I'm developing a node-red application right now that uses a html response. The html uses google maps, visual indicators and websockets. It is very hard to debug this system through node-red's little html editor. Is there a way to edit the html file through any normal editor (e.g. vs code) and then deploy the application again to see the effect ?
One solution that came to my mind was to read from an external file using the file node and return it as html, put I don't know if that works. Is there a better way ?
You can create and edit static resources (html/css files etc) however you'd like and then serve them from Node-RED.
You have two options for serving static content:
create corresponding HTTP In -> File In -> HTTP Response flows for each file you want to serve
or use the httpStatic property in your settings.js file to identify a directory whose content should be automatically served by the runtime.

I am currently in the process of making a blog website, writers for this website have the ability to upload AMP HTML files and the assets required for does files to work. Both the html file and their assets get sent to our CDN.
Now, when a client visits the website in the link example.com/13215 the server gets the parameter 13215 and checks what post it refers to in the database and retrieves the link to the HTML file. How can I send this HTML file to the front end with Node.js/Express.js even though it is a remote file.
Just copy pasting the URL into response.sendFile() and response.render() functions just throws errors. I thought about reading the file contents then writing them to a file then sending them to the client but I don't think that's a good idea performance wise.
Is there a way to achieve this?
I am making SharePoint spaces for various departments in insurance company. One of them wants to save and share their outputs via SharePoint. That outputs are maps with risk areas. Because maps includes many data layers, all the files are in one folder.
I have uploaded a folder with CSS, JSON, JS and HTML files to the library in SharePoint, but when I doubleclicked on HTML file, the page will not load. I think it's due to the JSON files.
What I need is to run whole page correctly with simple doubleclick.
Can anyone give me advice how to run other files supporting HTML with doubleclicking on HTML file?
Thank you.
I've had this same issue. To get the HTML to play in the browser (without SharePoint trying to make you download it), you need to rename the HTML file to an ASPX file.
To do this, you need to be in the Windows Explorer view (from a document library, go Library > Open with Explorer). Then change the file name from index.html to index.aspx.
However, if you're also using JSON files, that could be an issue. SharePoint prohibits you from uploading JSON files unfortunately.
Recently I've found that I can use pure HTML, CSS and JS to build Android app (and iOS also maybe), by using PhoneGap. I guess it converts HTML pages to Android web views. So basically I'll have ~10 HTML files, calling each other, get data from Server (it's Java and Tomcat) via Ajax and JSONP.
And my problem is about storing user data with these static local HTML files.
As they are local files, I can't use Cookie. But somehow Session's still working, so with each HTML page, I can set an onload event that sends an Ajax request, then get data. But it's very inconvenient, I have to do that for the same data each time I switch to another HTML file. So, is there any solution I can load all data when the first HTML file is loaded, store data somewhere, then reuse these data in others HTML files ? Thank you so much for reading my question.
I have a basic webpage built, and a Swagger document JSON file of my API. I am unsure of how to actually add the data from the document to the website so that it can be browsed.
I want to build hosted documentation for the API.
This is the example given by Swagger: http://petstore.swagger.wordnik.com/#!/pet/addPet
Do I just download Swagger UI and use it in conjunction with the JSON file.
But I am unsure on to achieve this. Any advice on how to go about creating something like this would be very helpful.
Swagger-ui is basically a set of static files you can host on your server to display your API.
Unless you may any major changes, you just need to copy the contents of the /dist folder to your server and host it as part of your application (or static website, doesn't matter).
The SwaggerUi object can be customized to your needs, including the URL of the spec you're hosting.
Keep in mind that if you don't host the ui and spec on the same server, (that is, same host and same port), you need to enable CORS.
I Wonder whether I can use pdf Source[as hyperlink] as a file path in system related to script's running directory.
part of code is.
pdf
I am generating this HTML using CGI Scripting in C. and my pdfs are located in ../pdfs/sample.pdf related to my running directory of script. And by pdf source means I want to show the pdf sample.pdf upon clicking pdf as in above sample code.
A browser does not care or know how a resource is generated. You can generate it with C via CGI, you can have the server just hand over a static file. There is no difference as far as the browser is concerned, it made an HTTP request and received an HTTP response.
The rules for resolving a relative URI in an HTML document are the same. The browser compares it to the base URI (which is either specified in <base> or is the URI of the document containing the link).
If that resolves to a URI that the server will serve a PDF up for, then it will work.
Since URIs don't always map directly onto file systems, it isn't possible to say if this will work in your situation (as your question only talks about file systems). If this was on one of the servers that I have CGI programmes executing on then it wouldn't work — since I keep them in a cgi-bin that isn't a subdirectory of the webroot, so the pdfs wouldn't be accessible over HTTP at all. Your server may be configured differently.
