Working with Json Data and pouchdb - json

I've just been introduced to pouchdb and as a side project, I want to create a bible app. The bible content is stored in a json file (js/bible.json). As users read the bible they can favorite different verse and add notes which would be saved with pouchdb. All of these works fine. The problem is, I'd like to display an icon for favorite verses which has been stored with pouchdb.
How do I query pouchdb data base to check if a verse has been "favorited" and display an icon?
I've explored so many options and it's not working. Any help?

You can use pouchdb-find for this: http://nolanlawson.github.io/pouchdb-find/
Notice how the demo allows you to look up Nintendo characters by various criteria (year of debut, rank, etc.). Similarly, you can search your bible entries by doc.isFavorited.

Get history of Document modifications/revisions in Azure Cosmos DB

I am looking for a sample code to get history of Document modifications , in the form of a list of Document versions in Azure Cosmos DB.
By selecting a document version from the list , that version will be displayed.
I also want to restore a previous document version .
I get the last version using the _ts tag.
However want a complete history of document revisions.
1. Maybe using Cosmos DB change feed.
2. Reading the ReadDocumentFeed
I have done some research . However did not come across any code for this.
Any pointers in this direction are most welcome.

Convert a JSON Response to pdf - NodeJS

Can this be done in nodeJS?
Conversion isn't the right word but generation is. According to the generalized response in json response you can write logic for generation of pdf from it in node-js server.
PDFKit and PDFmake are two good libraries for this purpose.
I've used pdfmake and is very good.
See doc here: https://pdfmake.github.io/docs/
Use html-pdf to generated PDF from html, Where it works on top of phantom
var pdf = require('html-pdf');
pdf.create(file[0].description).toFile('./' + file[0].description + '.pdf', function (err, res) {
console.log(res.filename);
});
Note : Sample code snippet above to handle first object in your array

How can I get JSON data out of a web page and parse it in Excel VBA

My company has a web service that we use to keep track of some information. They have built an API that allows us to get information out of it. My group is trying to do the same. However, the other groups have all used C# to accomplish this, and the development level of this team isn't higher than that of Excel VBA. What I need to do:
Go to a known URL http://service.company.com/Group=1
Get the JSON result that appears on the screen into VBA
Translate the JSON to readable human - This part seems to have been solved here
The rest of the code around what I need to do, I can handle. I'm hoping there is a JSON reader built into VBA that I can leverage for part 3. Any help would be much appreciated.
EDIT:
I figured out how to get JSON information out of the web page, there was some user/password authentication required in order to get that. So that is part 1 and 2 done. I'm working on Part 3. The JSON information seems to be coming out in this pattern:
[{"Column1":value1,"Column2":value2},
{"Column1":value1,"Column2":value2}]

Extract HTML Tables from Multiple webpages Using R

Hi I have done thorough research and have come to this extent. All I am trying to do is extract HTML table spanning many webpages.
I have to query the website sec.gov's database and the table then returns appropriate number of results (the size and number of pages vary with every query). For example:
Link: http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/srch-edgar
Inputs to be given:
Enter a Search string box: form-type=(8-k) AND filing-date=20140523
Start: 2014
End: 2014
How can I do this totally in R without even opening the browser?
I am sharing what all I have done
I tried many packages and the closest I came to was package RCurl. But in getURL function I opened the browser, ran the query in browser and pasted it in getURL. It returned a very long character, which has the URLs that can be looped and produce the output I want. All this information is in the "center" tag of output.
Now I do not know how to get those URLs out from the middle of the character.
Also, this is not what I wanted. I wanted to run a web query directly from R and get the varied HTML table outputs directly into R. is this possible at all?
Thanks
Meena
Yes, it is possible. You will want to use a combination of the RCurl and XML packages. You will need to programmatically generate the query parameters in the URL (based on the HTML form) and then use getURL() or getURLContent(). Sometimes, the server will expect an HTTP POST, so there is postForm().
To parse the result, look up the XPath language, which the XML package supports with getNodeSet(). I think there is also a function in the XML package for parsing an HTML table into a data.frame.

T-SQL Notification - Use HTML to create Chart/Graph

Is it possible to use xml and html to create a chart or graph to include in an email notification from MSSQL Server?
Has anyone done this before? Any suggestions?
For example: A chart visually representing the amount of receiving hours required in the warehouse for the next couple weeks.
It can be tedious but this method works:
Export the data from T-SQL (probably as a JSON) or directly use the database from .Net application.
Now create a word template with some graphs (Line/Bar/Pie Chart or whatever) and bookmark it with some name 'my_chart'
Now include Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word & Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel references in your C# project. (Google it & see this also)
Now in your C# project access those Graphs in word file using bookmark name & populate it with Data from database. (See this)
It may take some time but if your requirement is worth it you can do this.
Also you don't need to study C#(it's very similar to Java) for this, just see interop C# syntax as you keep going BUT if you want see C# documentation for any reference.
Refer this tutorial also.
