I've a View and Utility classes and wanted to hook-in the Utility method once View's job is done. So wanted to call the utility method (to add behavior to the view) once View's render call is done.
Using ES6 Proxy API, Is there a way to execute a method before / after executing the main method ? (aka method interceptions)
Similar to YUI3 Do API.
http://yuilibrary.com/yui/docs/api/classes/Do.html
Yes there is a way. Actually I'm trying to build the same thing and as long as you use a synchronous context I already got it working. Have a look at the code examples in the issue I created for my problem: stack overflow when returning an ES6 proxy through a promise
What you need to do to intercept the call is to use the ES6 proxy to get notified of the get-call that takes place to retrieve the function before the method is actually called.
In my example you can see that you get all the information about the call like what method was called with which parameters and also who called it and on which target it was originally called.

Accessing the local filesystem a la: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/FileSystemFileHandle
If I inline all my code for the show(Open|Save)FilePicker API logic directly in my button event closure or call plain fn's then things work ok. However, if I define a class w/helper methods and call those from my event-handler, and those helpers call the file pickers, then I get this error:
Uncaught DOMException: Failed to execute 'showOpenFilePicker' on 'Window': Must be handling a user gesture to show a file picker.
I assume the the security system is looking at this to establish the gesture context - is there a way to re-establish this context with code running in my class?
Turns out the class methods were a red herring -- the issue has to do with async code and promises -- this is what looses the context and causes the error.
You need to make any calls to the FS without any promise chaining.
System.out.println("Check1");
expect(mockobject.function(parameters)).andReturn("hello";
System.out.println("check2***************************");
replay(mockobject);
While executing the test, the mockobject.function(parameters) executes and call goes to the method.Debugging using the system out, it checks inside the function is also displayed in console.
Why is it so? The expect() doesn't allow the call to be made to the desired function?
Assuming mockobject is a mock created with mock() or createMock() and not partialMockBuilder(), this can't happen unless function is final.
I've been running into endless problems attempting to use Windsor with Web API and injecting HttpRequestMessage into downstream dependencies of a controller. Since I've tried all the matching answers on Stackoverflow, I'd like to ask the question in a different way:
In Castle Windsor, how can I resolve a component instance while supplying a value for a downstream dependency? That is, the supplied value is required by a component that is required by the component being resolved.
For context, I'm trying to inject HttpRequestMessage so that I can use it to resolve the request context (primarily to resolve an absolute URL).
Edit I'd also like to point out that I don't currently have a dependency on Web Host / System.Web and I'd rather not change that.
A proper approach is to
Create IMyDesiredRouteParameterProvider
Implement it. Get the current request inside it and get the url
Register it and inject it in the desired dependent class via constructor.
I made myself such an implementation and I can say that this way it works fine. You can make Web.Infrastructure assembly and put the implementation there. Or put both the interface and the implementation there if you are going to reference it from another web module.
using System;
using System.Web;
namespace RouteParameterProvider
{
interface IMyRouteParameterProvider
{
string GetRouteParameter();
}
public class ControllerActionMethodRouteParameterProvider : IMyRouteParameterProvider
{
public string GetRouteParameter()
{
string Parameter = HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext.RouteData.Values["controller"] as string;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Parameter))
{
throw new InvalidOperationException();
}
return Parameter;
}
}
}
You can get every possible thing that the Request Context contains from :
HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext
And it will be better if you rethink your design decision :
I need HttpRequestMessage to be regstered prior to creating each
instance of SomethingController so that it will be available down at
the LinkGenerator layer.
Containers are to be initialized at runtime and then used to resolve.
I need HttpRequestMessage to be regstered prior to creating each
instance of SomethingController so that it will be available down at
the LinkGenerator layer.
It sounds like you want to register an item with the container at runtime, post-startup. In general, this is not a good practice--registration should be a discrete event that happens when the app is fired up, and the container's state should not be changed during runtime.
Dependency Injection is about resolving service components, not runtime state--state is generally passed via methods (method injection). In this case it sounds like your LinkGenerator component needs access to the ambient state of the request.
I'm not that familiar with HttpRequestMessage, but this answer seems to show that it is possible to retreive it from HttpContext.Current. You could make this a method on your LinkGenerator class, or wrap this call in a separate component that gets injected into LinkGenerator (HttpRequestMessageProvider?). The latter would be my preferred method, as it allows LinkGenerator to be more testable.
Given the lack of a clean way of doing this and Web API not providing information as to the hosted endpoint beyond per-request context objects, I ended up injecting the base url from configuration.
Is this library by Mark Seemann the answer? In the description he writes explicitly :
This approach enables the use of Dependency Injection (DI) because the
request can be injected into the services which require it.
Then gives an example :
// Inside an ApiController
var uri = this.Url.GetLink(a=> a.GetById(1337));
By which you can then pass the URL down the road in the service that you have injected in the controller.
UPDATE :
Mark Seemann wrote about the same exact problem here:
"Because HttpRequestMessage provides the context you may need to
compose dependency graphs, the best extensibility point is the
extensibility point which provides an HttpRequestMessage every time a
graph should be composed. This extensibility point is the
IHttpControllerActivator interface:..."
This way you can pass request context information to a component deep in the object graph by getting from the HttpRequestMessage and passing it to the DI container.
Just take a look at the interface of IHttpControllerActivator.
The WEB API framework gets the IHttpControllerActivator through DependencyResolver. You probably already replaced it by your CastleWindsorDependencyResolver. Now you have to implement and register your HttpControllerActivator and register it.
When the WEB API framework gets IHttpControllerActivator from DependencyResolver (your Castle Windsor DR) and calls IHttpControllerActivator.Create() it will pass you the HttpRequestMessage. You can get your info from there and pass it to the your CastleDR before you call Resolve(typeof(MyController)) which will resolve the whole object graph - that means you will have MyHttpContextInfo to inject in your XYZComponent deep in the resolution stack.
This way tou are passing the arguments in the last possible moment but it is still possible. In Castle Windsor I make such passing of arguments though CreationContext.AdditionalArguments["myArgument"];.
I'm After several days learning angularJS through converting my standart JS app to a ng one.
I was wondering about this simple scenario:
I have a global function called fb_connect(),
it can be used from any page (or any controller if you like) to make a facebook-based login.
This function makes a simple http call and receives a JSON object contain data to move on (display a pop up, login, etc...)
I read that I can define a Factory or a Service for my app and use it in any controller, which works fine.
So, I created a fb_connect factory function.
The problem is that now, in every page (every controller), I have to define that fb_connect in the constructor of every controller - for example :
function welcome($scope,fb_connect){});
What is the proper way to do this kind of actions using Angular without having to define these functions each and every time in every controller?
Thanks
Setting up factories and services is all part of the dependency injection system of Angular. Using that system is great when you need to create things that depend on other injected things. It's a big tree of dependencies. It's also nice for creating singletons, such that everywhere in your code end up using the same instance of some object.
It sounds to me like neither of these benefits apply in your case. I'd suggest just not using Angular's DI for it. You have some function defined globally, just call it directly and skip the DI. There's nothing wrong with that.
Of course you say it makes an Ajax call, so doesn't depend on the Angular $http service?
Your two options are:
Declare the function on the $rootScope
Inject it as a service
My advice is to go with making it a service. The whole purpose of services is explained in the Angular.js docs, just like this quote:
Angular services are singletons that carry out specific tasks common to web apps... To use an Angular service, you identify it as a dependency for the dependent (a controller, or another service) that depends on the service.
As you mentioned in your question, you'd prefer to not define the service in every controller you wish to use it in. With $rootScope you'll be injecting that also in every controller. So really it's a question of which you prefer, although to answer your question, the proper way of using a factory or service is to inject it into the controller you wish to use it in.
You can always put it in the $rootScope
myApp.run(function($rootScope, fb_connect){
$rootScope.welcome = function(){
};
});
I been using the WebService and Operation classes of Flex Framework for a while, and after some ups and downs (more downs than ups, haha) I'm in process of refactoring all its uses with some utility classes/wrappers.
After browsing a little of the code of mx.rpc.soap.Operation I noticed that when you use the method "send" and the web service is not ready then the call is queued to an internal array (pendingInvocations:Array in line 1142). But the funny thing is that the invocations in the queue are never called again.
This is a bug or there is something I'm doing wrong?
I'm considering extending mx.rpc.soap.Operation, overriding "send" and testing if there are invocation queued, calling invokeAllPending (a mx_internal method that pops all the queued invocations) my self.
But the other problem is that that method is mx_internal, so I don't know if Adobe is gonna change it any time soon.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance
It's not a bug. Take a look at the definition for AbstractWebService; it defines a method called unEnqueueCalls (which is right up near the top of the list of awkward method names that I've seen :)). This method loops through all the operations in the webservice and invokes the pending calls for each operation by calling that invokeAllPending method you found.
unEnqueueCalls is itself called from the WebService class, in the wsdlFault and wsdlHandler methods, one of which runs when your WSDL is finished loading.
So, everything is all accounted for; you don't need to override anything.
