foursquare venue result locale - json

https://developer.foursquare.com/overview/versioning it says:
You can specify the locale by setting the Accept-Language HTTP header in your request. Alternatively, you can add a locale=XXX parameter to your request but HTTP header specification is preferred. We currently support en (default), es, fr, de, it, ja, th, tr, ko, ru, pt, and id.
and
If nothing is specified, for geographical entities (e.g., city names), we'll fall back to using the language that's most popular in the country for that venue.
Now, how do we get the locale of the API result? If I query with tr locale, it may answer me back with en or another fallback locale. I couldn't find it neither inside the results nor the response headers.
I need this to cache and show the users the right data. My website's fallback language is en for example, but the API might give me de for example.
Thanks.
Edit Here's an example of what I try to tell;
URL:
https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/4adcda50f964a520354121e3
?client_id=[client_id]&client_secret=[client_secret]&v=20161115&locale=tr
Headers:
array (
'Accept-Language' => 'tr',
'Accept' => 'application/json'
)

The addresses, categories, some of the names, timeframes, attributes sections are in fact Turkish, but the description and the most of the names are in fallback/local language which is Spanish in this case.

The locale is not specified in the API response.
If you don't specify anything in the Accept-Language HTTP header the response will default to the language that's most popular in the country. However, if you do specify a local the API won't fallback to anything else.
If your website's language is english, you can specify en in the Accept-Language HTTP header and the API will give you english too.

Debitoor API is returning 400 bad request

I would like to create invoices by my PHP script. But before I am able to program this I would like to understand the API from Debitoor.
In order to create an invoice you have to create a draft invoice first. You can find this here: /api/sales/draftinvoices/v3.
I have set all the requested parameters to use the the /api/sales/draftinvoices/v3 function however, I always get a 400 Bad Request response back.. The reason is the schema.
Can you guys tell me where my failure is?
I would guess is something with the "lines"... but I would say it's all correct...
This is my request:
Request as text:
{
"date": "2018-05-06",
"dueDate": "2018-05-13",
"notes": "Diese Rechnung ist vom Backend erstellt worden.",

"description": "Leistungszeitraum 06.04.2018 - 05.05.2018",
"taxRate": "1.19",
"productOrService": "product"
}
}
This is the response I get back:

}
}
}
Kind regards and Thank You!
Thank you for using the Debitoor API
You are correct. Your problem is with the lines. Lines should be an array. You have only send a single object.
Another issue is that you provide taxEnabled: false and taxRate: 1.19. If you provide taxEnabled as false you should set the taxRate to 0. Remember that taxRate should be between 0 and 100 with a maximum of two decimals
Your request should look something like this instead:
{
"lines": [
{
"taxEnabled": false,
"description": "Leistungszeitraum 06.04.2018 - 05.05.2018",
"taxRate": 0,
"quantity": 1,
"unitNetPrice": 1,
"productOrService": "product"
}

trouble with parseing JSON with ASPJSON for classic ASP

I am using ASP JSON at http://www.aspjson.com/
I am trying to parse the salehistory the out of this JSON response below. I can get all the nodes under the property object like this
oJSON.data("property").item(0).item("vintage").item("lastModified")
However when I try to go deeper I get errors
I have tried
oJSON.data("property").item(0).item("salehistory").item("salesearchdate") but that does not return anything.
I think that it has something to do with the fact that property is an object and SalesHistory is an object inside of Property however I cannot seem to get the values out of the salehistory level.
Below is the JSON structure that I am trying to parse. Any help would be appreciated. .

},
"calculation": {
"priceperbed": 46250,

}
}
]
}
]
}
Actually I was able to get it figured out.
Since it was a nested object within the property object I need to do the following to access it.
response.write oJSON.data("property").item(0).item("salehistory").item(0).item("amount").item("saleamt"
Adding .item(0) after sales history allowed me to access the salehistory object

How do I serialize this using JSONPISerailizer or any other serializer in ember-cli so that it gets stored in ember store
Reference jsonapi.org
++++Top Level:
Root:
A JSON object must be root of every JSON API request response.
A document must contain at least one top-level members:
1. data: documents "primary data"
2. errors: an array of error objects (id,status,code,title....)
3. meta: a meta object that contains non-standard meta-information (copyright,author...)
member data and errors must not co-exist together.
"data"{}
+++++Resource Objects
1. A resource object MUST contain atleast following top-level member
*id
*type
```
//structure-1
//for galleries
{
"data": {
"type": "galleries",
"id": "1"
}
}
//for photos
{
"data": {
"type": "photos",
"id": "1"

In addition, a resource object may contain any of these top-level members
*attributes
*relationship
*links

============Implementation part =================================
JSONSerializer normalization process follows these steps
*normalizeResponse : entry method.
*normalizeCreateRecordResponse : a normalizeResponse for specific operation.
*normalizeSingleResponse|normalizeArrayResponse:
- for methods like createRecord. we expect a single record back.
- for methods like findAll we expect multiple records back.
+normalize =
normalizeArray iterates and calls normalize for each of it's records
normalizeSingle call its once.
+extractID | extractAttributes | extractRelationships
= normalize delegates to these method to turn record payload into jsonAPI format
Starting with normalizeResponse method. If you open and see normalizeResponse method
in json-serializer
link normalizeResponse: https://github.com/emberjs/data/blob/v2.2.1/packages/ember-
data/lib/serializers/json-serializer.js#L192
you with find a switch case switch(requestType). If requestType if
"findRecord" then "normalizeFindRecordResponse" is called
"queryRecord" then "normalizeQueryRecordResponse" is called
"findAll" then "normalizeFindAllResponse" is called
...so on and so forth.
if you notice the parameter passed to all the methods are same as that of normalize
(...arguments) :)
**Lets start for findAll
i.e normalizeResponse -> normalizeFindAllResponse -> normalizeArrayResponse
as normalizeFindAllResponse method has only one line that call
normalizeArrayResponse.
normalizeFindAllResponse
normalizeResponse -> normalizeFindAllResponse -> normalizeArrayResponse ->
_normalizeResponse{ extractMeta,normalize }
extractMeta [extract meta information like pagination and stuff ]
if single: normalize []
example of normalize method in emberjs docs
```
import DS from 'ember-data';
export default DS.JSONSerializer.extend({
normalize: function(typeClass, hash) {
var fields = Ember.get(typeClass, 'fields');
fields.forEach(function(field) {
var payloadField = Ember.String.underscore(field);
if (field === payloadField) { return; }
hash[field] = hash[payloadField];
delete hash[payloadField];
});
return this._super.apply(this, arguments);
}
});
```
"normalizeArrayResponse calls `return this._normalizeResponse
(store,primaryModelClass,payload,id,requestType,false).
so isSingle is false for _normalizeResponse method. so we will have to push all the
related records of included array
in our case the photos which is done by below snippet from "_normalizeRespose"
method.
_normalizeResponse
```
else{
documentHash.data = payload.map((item) => {
let { data, included } = this.normalize(primaryModelClass,item);
if(included){
documentHash.included.push(...included);
}
return data;
});
return documentHash;
}
```
Things are still unclear in the context of our JSON reponse from server
but atleast we know the flow now.
Lets try to apply it for findAll ( as per the flow above).
run "ember g serializer application" //assuming you are using ember-cli and you
intend to make this serializer generic for application.
As of now I have no information how and when normalizeResponse is called. :(
I just scanned through and guess on recieving data from server the store calls
normalizeResponseHelpers which in turn calls normalizeResponse.
In any case "normalizeResponse" is going to send payload and other necessar
information to normalizeFindAllResponse(...arguments) which in turn will call
normalizeArrayResponse(...arguments) which in turn will call "_normalizeRespone".
Here is where we need to take action
for extraMeta and normalize.
+extraMeta
I am not sure if there is any meta information in you json response.
in case there is you can refer to the example mentioned in docs
extractMeta
So I guess you can directly user the normalize method from example in your application ;).
please try and check. Since i am learning ember myself I cannot guarantee it will work but it should. the lonngggg explation is my thought while i was learning the problem/solution
//app/serializers/application.js
+normalize
```
import DS from 'ember-data';
export default DS.JSONSerializer.extend({
normalize: function(typeClass, hash) {
var fields = Ember.get(typeClass, 'fields');
fields.forEach(function(field) {
var payloadField = Ember.String.underscore(field);
if (field === payloadField) { return; }
hash[field] = hash[payloadField];
delete hash[payloadField];
});
return this._super.apply(this, arguments);
}
});
```
The primary key in the JSON from server is pk. You will have to mention that too
http://emberjs.com/api/data/classes/DS.JSONSerializer.html#property_primaryKey
app/serializers/application.js
import DS from 'ember-data';
export default DS.JSONSerializer.extend({
primaryKey: 'pk'
});

I need to parse all data from all fields from this JSON file. Is there a way to do it in React JS? Could you please suggest me any way to parse data from a structured JSON file like this?
React lives in JavaScript. So parsing a JSON string is done with:
var myObject = JSON.parse(myjsonstring);
How to fetch a file from somewhere with AJAX is a different question.
You could use fetch() for this. See for example
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API or
https://davidwalsh.name/fetch or
https://blog.gospodarets.com/fetch_in_action

How to convert a json file without the same length of json objects into csv

I have a json file and I want to convert it to csv format.
The problem I face is that every json object in the file has not the same length of the converted columns I have. For example the one object have 49 columnns and the next have 50.
I provide here an example of 2 data from which the first one has not the creator.slug but the next has it is and so there is the problem with data. The problem is that the process create all 50 columns but for the object which don't have the value creator.slug it takes the next price.

Looks like there's a very similar question (with answer, though not pure R) here: convert json to csv format
However, since you do seem to want most, if not all, the JSON in a "wide CSV" format you can use fromJSON from jsonlite, rbindlist from data.table (which gets you the fill=TRUE parameter to handle uneven lists nicely) and unlist:
library(jsonlite)
library(data.table)
# tell fromJSON we want a list back
json_data <- fromJSON("in.json", simplifyDataFrame=FALSE)
# iterate over the list we have so we can "flatten" it then
# covert it back to a data.frame-like object
dat <- rbindlist(lapply(json_data, function(x) {
as.list(unlist(x))
}), fill=TRUE)
You may need to tweak column names, but I think this gets you what you're looking for.
