highchart save image using exporting java and phantomjs - json

I was able to setup exporting module using java and phantomjs. I am also able to see the image file getting generated in temp folder but it gets deleted after some time 30 secs to be exact. After going through API definition I found something called as async which caught my eyes. I tried playing around with this option but didnt worked. Image file gets deleted evertime, I want to permanently save this file on file system. Any pointers in this directions would be very helpful.
Thanks

Open AbstractPool.java file, in line 117 you can find:
Collection<File> oldFiles = FileUtils.listFiles(TempDir.outputDir.toFile(),filter, null);
for (File file : oldFiles) {
file.delete();
}
Simply delete that lines, and should be enough. Or above that lines you can set higher fixedRate.

In addition to Pawel's answer you can also change the time limit in the app-convert.properties file:
# Keep files in the temp folder for a certain retentionTime, defined in miliseconds
retentionTime = 30000
That is the default. So, 30s makes sense.

How to set silent_functions(1) as default in Octave? [duplicate]

I'm new to octave, and want to run a few commands on startup automatically every time it opens.
I typed "help startup" and saw "Octave uses the file ".octaverc". I did a bit of searching online at https://www.math.utah.edu/docs/info/octave_4.html, and saw the .octaverc file should be in the following path:
OCTAVE_HOME/lib/octave/VERSION/startup/octaverc
PROBLEM:
In that directory I don't have a startup folder, only "oct" and "site". I do see hidden files, which was my first thought since the file begins with "." character. So I then used Agent Ransack in the directory, and still nothing came up.
QUESTION:
1) Do I have to make the startup folder and octaverc file myself?
2) If so, does one, both or none have to be hidden?
3) Can it be a txt file, or does it have a special extension?
4) Do I just type the commands straight into the file or is there special formatting?
NOTE:
In case I'm going about this the wrong way, there are the operations I'd like to have run on startup:
PS1('>> '), addpath('D:\Users\Me\Desktop'), clc
Thanks ahead of time for the help!!
Possible locations (and their differences) for octaverc files are specified in the documentation.
In short, these are, from more general to specific:
octave-home/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc (most generic, for entire system)
octave-home/share/octave/version/m/startup/octaverc (to cover for more than one octave versions installed on the system, possibly requiring different startup scripts)
~/.octaverc (where ~ is unix-speak for a user's home directory -- covering for user-specific startup files)
.octaverc files in any directory, creating specific startup conditions for specific directories
octaverc files are effectively simple script files that are executed from most generic to most specific each time octave starts. Therefore, in the presence of conflicting commands, the more specific file can effectively be used to override the more generic behaviour.
Octave also supports (but does not recommend) the use of the startup.m file, for matlab compatibility.
You might also want to check out pathdef and savepath as well.
As a more general tip, if you ever want to search for a specific keyword from the documentation (e.g. octaverc), you can type this kind of search query in duckduckgo (or google):
octaverc site:https://octave.org/doc/interpreter/
(or just download the documentation as pdf and search the pdf)
Found the solution, the file was in the following path:
OCTAVE_HOME/share/octave/site/m/startup
to find out where OCTAVE_HOME is for you, just type "OCTAVE_HOME" into your Octave command line window.
ANSWERS:
1) You do not have to make a startup octaverc file yourself
2) The file is actually not hidden, so it should be easy to find given you're looking in the right place.
3) The file doesn't have an extension. It's just octaverc.
4) Under the last line of the existing file, you can just append commands as you would type them at the Octave command line window.
the last(7.3.0) octave version placed HERE:/ does not find the THERE:/openEMS/matlab directory even it is already loaded with octaverc or addpath. It keeps looking into the work dir where openEMS is not placed and does not recognize, for instance, the 'physical_constants.m' file.

PhpStorm isn't doing code completion with large file

I've just installed this library. PhpStorm does its usual code completion, except for the \XeroAPI\XeroPHP\Api\AccountingApi class. The \XeroAPI\XeroPHP\Api\IdentityApi class in the same folder works just fine.
The file is quite big - 2,560KB. If I delete roughly half of the 65,000 lines from the class (and it works whether it's the first half or the second half) then I get my code completion back. In fact, I can delete just the last 3,000 or so lines (getting the file down to 2,499KB) and it works.
I've also tried a quick regex find/replace to remove all the #throws PHPDoc comments. This got the file down to 2,491KB and hey presto, code completion works fine.
If I had to make a guess I'd say it's not doing code completion with source files over 2.5MB or something, but I can't find any setting for this.
Any way to get code completion going with this file short of deleting stuff from it (which will be restored next time I do a Composer update anyway)?
Based on your info (especially the mentioned file size and the fact that it starts to work after reducing it) you have hit a limit of max file size that IDE is willing to parse and index.
Solution: configure idea.max.intellisense.filesize option using Help | Edit Custom Properties command. By default it has a value of 2500 (size in KB). Set it to 3000 or so (to cover your file size) and restart IDE (it reads and applies settings from idea.properties file on start only).
idea.max.intellisense.filesize=3000
P.S. Do not put that value too big as it may cause other performance issues.

Verify a Tif with ApprovalTests

I have been asked to update a system where header information gets injected into a tif via a 3rd party console application. I don't need to worry about that bit.
The part I have been asked to look at it the merge process that generates the header information.
The current file generated by the process is assumed as correct, before I make any changes, so I want to add this as an approved result, from that I can then check that the changes I make will alter the file as expected.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to look at using ApprovalTests
The problem I have is that for what ever reason the links to the videos are considered corruptible (Possibly show me kittens jumping into boxes or something, which will stop me working, which ironically means I slow down my work done because I cannot see any help videos).
What I have been looking at is the Approvals.Verify and Approvals.VerifyFile extensions.
But what appears to be happening is confusing me.
using VerifyFile creates a received file, but the contents of the file are just a line the name of the file I have asked it to verify.
using Verify(new FileInfo("FileNameHere")) does not appear to generate the received file that I need to flag as approved, but the test does return saying that it cannot find the approved tif file.
I am probably using VerifyFile completely wrong and might be looking at using Verify wrong as well.
useful info?
Might be useful to know, that as this is a legacy application, running as a windows service, I have wrapped the service in a harness that allows me to call the routines, so the files are physically being written elsewhere on the machine outside of my control (well there is a config, but the return of the service I call generates a file in a fixed location if it is successful). I have tried copying that into the Unit Test project, but that doesn't appear to help.
Verify(File) and VerifyFile(string) are both meant to verify an existing file. As such they merely setting the received file to the file you pass in. You will still need to move/approval/create the approved file.
Here is the pseudo code and process.
[UseReporter(typeof(DiffReporter), typeof(ClipboardReporter)]
public void TestTiff()
{
string tif = YourProcessToCreateTifFile();
Approvals.VerifyFile(tif);
}
[Note: if you don't have an image diff installed, like TortoiseDiff, you might want to use the FileLauncherReporter]
Run this, once you get the result, move the file over by pasting your clipboard into a cmd window.
It will move the temporary tif to your test directory with the name ClassName.TestTiff.approved.tif
After that the test should pass until something changes.
Happy Testing!

How works chrome.fileSystem.isRestorable?

chrome.fileSystem.isRestorable is a new part of the chrome.fileSystem API and it saif if a file can be restored with its entry or not. I've made many tests but something is wrong, when I tried to do :
chrome.storage.local.get(
["recentFileId1"],
function(recent) {
chrome.fileSystem.isRestorable(
recent["recentFileId1"],
function (isRestorable){
console.log(isRestorable);
});
});
It returns me true, even if the file has been deleted of my computer. recentFileId1 seems like a real id (many numbers and the path at the end, for example FD158F2A41037D17440C025C1CA5FE08:question.txt) and the file's restoration works if the file is still on my computer. When I tried to restore the file with an id of a deleted file it just returns nothing, no error.
So I want to know : did I use this feature wrong or something? It can work if I try to restore and see what is restored (if it returns nothing the file has been deleted), but I don't want to use a hack if the API is available.
Thanks.
This function is currently only available in the dev channel of Chrome, and should be released to stable in version 31.
What you're describing sounds like a bug, please file it at http://crbug.com. We should always return true or false. What the correct behavior in this case should be is not clear.
The intent of this function is to let an app know if it should provide UI to give the user access to previously opened files. If a file is restorable, it simply means the app still has permission to access the file.
We are reserving the right to limit when files are restorable. E.g. we might have an arbitrary upper limit to how many files can be restored, or the access might timeout after a few months, or we may give the user the option of not letting apps restore any files. isRestorable lets you know if access to a previously opened file is still available.
isRestorable is not intended to give information about how accessible the file still is. Local changes can impact this - e.g. the file might be deleted or the OS access permissions changed. It might still be there but be invisible to chrome and the app due to no read access to the containing folder.
Think about a recent documents menu. This could show files which were opened and since deleted. When the app restores a deleted app it would not work and would show an error to the user. At that point the user might go to their recycle bin or git checkout and replace the file.
Or the recent documents menu could just not show files which have been deleted.
Either way your app should not rely on isRestorable as an indication of whether a file entry can be regained and successfully used, you should handle restoreFile not restoring a file and giving an error, and handle access to the file having permission problems.

Hard link to a file not working as expected on OS X

I've a file in a folder and I don't know anything about this file (how it's generated and updated) because it comes from an application running on my system of which I don't have the source code.
The file format is clearly json and I successfully created an hard link to it (using the shell command ln file hardLinkToFile) and placed it on another directory.
At this point I check the "2" files and they are exactly the same as expected, but when I perform an action in the application that cause an update of the original file the hard link doesn't get updated.
Any idea on how I can solve this problem?
UPDATE: As pointed out by both Vlad Lazarenko and mvds the file probably get deleted and a new one is created, is there something I can do to obtain a solution equivalent to the hard-link one I thought initially about?
If a hard link is not getting updated, it means that application is removing the old file and creates a new one. Thus, you still have a hard copy of the previous file, but new file has a totally different inode, though path is still the same. You can verify it simply by changing the content of that file yourself - the link should get updated.
I am getting the same behavior in TextEdit, but not in TextMate. I would suspect this is due to the revision control built in to OS X Lions document architecture. TextEdit uses versioning, while TextMate does not. Most likely this function replaces the file instead of changing it, as described by #Vlad Lazarenko.
#Vlad and Francesco. It's really in this way. I verified that vi leaves the inode unchanged and the src and dest file are both changed, while e.g. the kate editor doesn't and I was getting mad to understand why the changes I made in the src file weren't also in the dest file.
You can easily check this with the command ls -li srcfile destfile before editing one of them with each editor I mentioned.
By the way it's not nice that the hard link are application dependent
I guess it is a bit too late...
Anyways, accidentally I found that, if you change the default app for the file, the hard link gets separated from original file. Even if you click on change all and do not relate to that specific file.
