I have this bulk load of html, js, css, less files including zip files (themes) to be placed in Resource file in Lotus Notes. Will it be able to view get the zip files? There are so many files in the themes folder and it's going beyond the allowable file path so I wanted it to be placed in zip file.
If you put a zip file in resources, then it will be served as a zip to browsers. So that's not the solution. You need to unzip it and add all files.
You can also put the unzipped files in the default HTML folder on the Domino server without adding them to database resources. On Linux, it's usually /local/notesdata/domino/html/ and on Windows C:\data\domino\html.

I am in the process of uploading a huge number of tests for my school (I am a computer science teacher). These come in the form of .h5p files. I need to parse information into the .h5p files from .txt documents, ready for uploading to Moodle courses. To do this, I have built an app to push the data from .txt files into the .json files in the .h5p file.
The problem is that my app converts the h5p to a zip, unzips it and then parses the information, rezips and then changes the extension again to h5p. Would you mind watching this video https://youtu.be/FTyQddAcWa8 and letting me know how I might be able to edit the .json files and then rezip ready for uploading to the Moodle courses? The files throw up errors once unzipped and then zipped again.
I think the unzipping process is altering the relative links.
Bottom line is, these tests are critical in my school of 1,274 children mitigating the impact of COVID-19 lockdown.
The unzipping process is not the problem, but the zipping is.
When you upload the file, H5P is complaining because it expects some flags to be set when zipping:
-D do not add directory entries
-X eXclude eXtra file attributes
I assume that at some point your script is calling zip. That call would need to pass the correct flags. On a command line, you'd use
zip -rDX myNewFile.h5p *
to pack all files in the current directory into a valid H5P content file named myNewFile.h5p. Just "translate" that into your script.
In my project we have certain markdownfiles which are used to generate pdf and html with the same filename (just different extensions). I would like to gitignore those pdf files not other pdf files (which are not generated).
I know that I could manually unignore those files one by one, also I know I could designate a folder to be unignored. But I was looking for some kind of a pattern by which I could ignore the generated files, that would by itself ensure that the non-generated files are not ignored.
Generate it to specific folder/subfolder and ignore this folder by gitignore specification.
It is most simple and efective solution.
If you are opened to naming these generated pdf files with a slightly different extension such as .gen.pdf instead of .pdf, this would give you the opportunity to differentiate these files with a pattern:
*.gen.pdf
which will ignore your .gen.pdf files and not the .pdf files while keeping all your files in the same directory.
gitignore rules can't handle such a complex rule for which a file would be ignored only if another file with the same name but not the same extension exists.
If renaming your files is not an option, then you could also add an extra step in the script used to generate these .pdf files, which would simply append the name of the generated .pdf to the .gitignore.
If you have a naming convention for your files that can be used to ignore them. If the filenames does not follow a pattern, you could do it as step pointed in his answer, save the pdf files to a specific folder and just ignore that folder in your .gitignore file.
I have a main project and an external library. I have added a directory of assets to the external library in src/assets/[50 files here].
When I do that, I go into the external library properties and select the folder and this includes all the files in that directory. Example shown (1 file selected):
In my main application I want to access that folder and copy the files into another directory. How do I access those files?
Note:
I may update these files periodically, copying the files and pasting them into that directory. There may be a few more or less files each time. So I'm against embedding them.
Go to your main project > Properties and select Flex Build Path. Under Source path, choose Add Folder... and enter the following
${DOCUMENTS}\GigaLibrary\src\assets
(assuming your library project is called GigaLibrary, that is)
I need to load a large number of pictures (around 30) in a sequence as a short movie, each .png has the size 960X540.
I don't want the loader depend on the name of each picture as I will make changes frequently.
Is there any suggestions?
Are you trying to load images from a local file system, or a remote web server?
If you want to load images from a local file system folder, you can use AIR's File/getDirectoryListing().
If you want to load images from a remote server, and you do not want to rely on a pre-defined file naming pattern, the server will need to be able to provide directory information, for example a PHP script that reads the directory contents and outputs XML or JSON. There's no general way for a client to probe a web server for files in a directory. Some web servers do have a default web directory listing script that shows when there is no "default" file in a folder (index.html, etc), but that probably won't be quite good enough for what you're trying to do.
As a final note, if you don't mind manually updating a file on the server that lists all the files as XML or JSON, you could create a simple AIR app to process a local file directory and generate the necessary XML or JSON and upload that to your server.
I have seen a few examples with link to folder but i realy don't understant what it is or how to manipulate it or get it to set the specific html page within the folder.
My website is a basic one with only CSS and HTML
it is formatted as
[file]home.html // C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/home.html
[folder]Order // C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/
↳[file]ordersheet.html // C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/ordersheet.html
I want to try set the folder path C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/ as the file ordersheet.html C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/ordersheet.html how can this be done?
To set /order to ordersheet.html change the name of ordersheet.html to index.html
The index.html is the default file that the server will serve to the visitor when he visits that specific directory.
link text
link text = what you want it to say to the user
/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/ = directory path
Keep in mind that this will only work locally. If you have it up on a server, visitors don't have access to your full C:/ drive so you have to use relative links, i.e. just /order/
If I remebember correctly, you use something like this:
<a href="file:///C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/ordersheet.html>link to file on harddisk</a>
If you would want to have that anchor to a folder, you would just use this:
<a href="file:///C:/Users/user/Desktop/mywebsite/order/>link to a folder on harddisk</a>
Your browser is operating directly on your system's local filesystem, so you can't.
What you have been looking at is a function of a web server (I'll use Apache HTTPD for examples here).
A typical configuration of a web server would map the local part of the URI onto a directory on the local file system and just serve up the files there if they matched the local part of the URI.
If the local part resolves to a directory (rather than a file) then it would look for a file in that directory with a name that matched a list (typically including index.html) and serve up that file.
If none of the files on the list existed, then it would generate an HTML document containing links to all the files in the directory.
Since there is no web server involved when the browser is reading the local file system directly, there is no way to map the directory onto an index file, so you would need to explicitly include the filename in the URI (or switch to using a web server).
