Earlier I asked about gathering information from API-Link, and I have managed to get out most of the details by using the answar I got.
Now ny problem is when another API to get more information
This time the file will contain this information:
{
"username":"UserName",
"confirmed_rewards":"0",
"round_estimate":"0.00000000",
"total_hashrate":"0.000",
"payout_history":"0",
"round_shares":"0",
"workers":{
"UserName.1":{
"alive":"0",
"hashrate":"0.000"
},
"UserName.2":{
"alive":"0",
"hashrate":"0.000"
},
"UserName.3":{
"alive":"1",
"hashrate":"1517.540",
"last_share_timestamp":1369598007
},
"UserName.4":{
"alive":"0",
"hashrate":"0.000"
}
}
}
And I want to gather each of the workers and print them out. This "workers" could contain multiple information, but always start with "UserName.x", where the username come from the "username" paramter each time.
The numbers will always vary from 0 and up
I want to gether the information in the same way by accessing the document, and decode and print out all the workers, whatever the numbers of them are.
By using the script provided in my last question(look at the link in the start), i was thinking that it would be something like
local t = json.decode( txt )
print("Workers: ".. t["workers.UserName.1"])
But this was not the way.
Due to the username changing all the time, I was also thinking somthing like
print("Workers: ".. t["workers" .. "." .. "username" .. "." .. "1"])
From here I have no clue about how I should gather the information, even when the names and numbers vary
Thanks in advance
Here is the perfect solution:
local json = require "json"
local t = json.decode( jsonFile( "data.json" )
local workers = t.workers
for name, user in pairs(workers) do
print("--------------------")
print(name)
for tag, value in pairs(user) do
print(tag , value)
end
end

I am trying to automate/ease a procedure to review firewall rules within ELK (ElasticSearch, Logstash, Kibana).
I have some data obtained from a CSV, which is structured like this:
Source;Destination;Service;Action;Comment
10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/16 192.168.0.0/24 23.2.20.6;10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.3;udp:53
tcp:53;accept;No.10: ID: INC0000000001
My objective is to import this data within ELK by parsing each field (for subnet and/or IP address) and, if possible, add a sequential field (IP_Source1,IP_Destination2,etc) containing each one.
Is this possible, to your knowledge? How?
Thanks for any hint you may be able to provide
You can create a logstash configuration with input as file. Then use first csv filter. CSV filter should look like this.
filter {
csv {
columns => ["source", "destination", "service", "action", "comment"]
separator => ";"
}
}
Next filter will need to be ruby filter.
filter {
ruby {
code => "
arr = event.get(source).split('')
arr.each.with_index(1) do |a, index|
event.set(ip_source+index, a)
end
"
}
}
Final will be output to elasticsearch.
I have not tested code. But I am hoping this shuld give you good hints.
I am trying to show the "sgv" value on a Dashing / Smashing dashboard widget. Ultimately I would also like to show the "direction" value as well. I am running into problems pulling that precise value down which changes every 3 to 5 minutes. I have already been able to mirror the exact string using the following:
require 'net/http'
require 'rest-client'
require 'json'
url = "https://dnarnianbg.herokuapp.com/api/v1/entries/current.json"
response = RestClient.get(url)
JSON.parse(response)
# :first_in sets how long it takes before the job is first run. In this case, it is run immediately
current_nightscout = 0
SCHEDULER.every '5m' do
last_nightscout = current_nightscout
current_nightscout = response
send_event('nightscout', { current: current_nightscout, last: last_nightscout })
end
I have also searched the archives several times. I don't wish to write this to a file like this one shows and the duplicate question has been deleted or moved.
I realize that the JSON.parse(response) is just going to parse out whatever I tell it the response equals, but I don't know how to get that response to equal SGV. Maybe the solution isn't in the RestClient, but that is where I am lost.
Here is the JSON URL: http://dnarnianbg.herokuapp.com/api/v1/entries/current.json
EDIT: The output of that link is something like this:
[{"_id":"5ba295ddb8a1ee0aede71822","sgv":87,"date":1537381813000,"dateString":"2018-09-19T18:30:13.000Z","trend":4,"direction":"Flat","device":"share2","type":"sgv"}]
You need something like response[0]["sgv"] which should return 52 if you end up with many items in the list you will need to iterate over them.
The best thing you can do is to break your problem down into easier parts to debug. As you are having problems accessing some JSON via an API you should make a simple script which only does the function you want in order to test it and see where the problem is.
Here is a short example you can put into a .rb file and run;
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'open-uri'
require 'json'
test = JSON.parse(open("https://dnarnianbg.herokuapp.com/api/v1/entries/current.json", :read_timeout => 4).read)
puts test[0]["sgv"]
That should return the value from sgv
I realise that short sweet example may be little use as a learner so here is a more verbose version with some comments;
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'open-uri'
require 'json'
# Open the URL and read the result. Time out if this takes longer then 4 sec.
get_data = open("https://dnarnianbg.herokuapp.com/api/v1/entries/current.json", :read_timeout => 4).read
# Parse the response (get_data) to JSON and put in variable output
output = JSON.parse(get_data)
# Put the output to get the 'sgv figure'
p output[0]["sgv"]
It always pays to manually examine the data you get back, in your case the data looks like this (when make pretty)
[
{
"_id": "5ba41a0fb8a1ee0aedf6eb2c",
"sgv": 144,
"date": 1537481109000,
"dateString": "2018-09-20T22:05:09.000Z",
"trend": 4,
"direction": "Flat",
"device": "share2",
"type": "sgv"
}
]
What you actually have is an Array. Your server returns only 1 result, numbered '0' hence you need [0] in your p statement. Once you have accessed the array id then you can simply use the object you need as [sgv]
If your app ever returns more than one record then you will need to change your code to read all of the results and iterate over them in order to get all the values you need.
Here is the final code that made it work
require 'net/http'
require 'json'
require 'rest-client'
# :first_in sets how long it takes before the job is first run. In this case, it is run immediately
current_nightscout = 0
SCHEDULER.every '1m' do
test = JSON.parse(open("https://dnarnianbg.herokuapp.com/api/v1/entries/current.json", :read_timeout => 4).read)
last_nightscout = current_nightscout
current_nightscout = p test[0]["sgv"]
send_event('nightscout', { current: current_nightscout, last: last_nightscout })
end
I can probably eliminate require 'rest-client' since that is no longer being used, but it works right now and that is all that matters.
I am trying to search my database using a string, such as "A". I was just watching this Firebase tutorial Common SQL Queries converted for the Firebase Database - The Firebase Database For SQL Developers #4 and it explains that, in order to search the database for a string (in a certain location), you must use:
firebase.database().ref.child("child_name_here")
.queryOrdered(byChild: "child_name_here")
.queryStarting(atValue: "value_here_uppercase")
.queryEnding(atValue: "value_here_uppercase\\uf8ff")
You must use two \\ in the ending value as an escape character in order to get one \.
When I try this with my Firebase database, it does not work. Here is my database:
{
"Schools": {
"randomUID": {
"location" : "anyTown, anyState",
"name" : "anyName"
}
}
}
Here is my query:
databaseReference.child("Schools")
.queryOrdered(byChild: "name")
.queryStarting(atValue: "A")
.queryEnding(atValue: "A\\uf8ff") ...
When I go to print the snapshot from Firebase, I get back.
If I get rid of the ending .queryEnding(atValue: "A\\uf8ff"), the database returns all of the schools in the Schools node.
How can I search the Firebase database using a String?
queryStarting() and queryEnding() can be used for number. For example: you can get objects with someField varying from 3 to 10.
for searching string: you can search whole string using queryEqualToValue().
This shows all customers that match Wick. (It's not swift but may give you an idea)
// sample
let query = 'Wick'
clientsRef.orderByChild('name')
.startAt(query)
.endAt(query + '\uf8ff')
.once('value', (snapshot) => {
....
})
I'm using Postman to make REST API calls to a server. I want to make the name field dynamic so I can run the request with a unique name every time.
{
"location":
{
"name": "Testuser2", // this should be unique, eg. Testuser3, Testuser4, etc
"branding_domain_id": "52f9f8e2-72b7-0029-2dfa-84729e59dfee",
"parent_id": "52f9f8e2-731f-b2e1-2dfa-e901218d03d9"
}
}
In Postman you want to use Dynamic Variables.
The JSON you post would look like this:
{
"location":
{
"name": "{{$guid}}",
"branding_domain_id": "52f9f8e2-72b7-0029-2dfa-84729e59dfee",
"parent_id": "52f9f8e2-731f-b2e1-2dfa-e901218d03d9"
}
}
Note that this will give you a GUID (you also have the option to use ints or timestamps) and I'm not currently aware of a way to inject strings (say, from a test file or a data generation utility).
In Postman you can pass random integer which ranges from 0 to 1000, in your data you can use it as
{
"location":
{
"name": "Testuser{{$randomInt}}",
"branding_domain_id": "52f9f8e2-72b7-0029-2dfa-84729e59dfee",
"parent_id": "52f9f8e2-731f-b2e1-2dfa-e901218d03d9"
}
}
Just my 5 cents to this matter. When using randomInt there is always a chance that the number might eventually be present in the DB which can cause issues.
Solution (for me at least) is to use $timestamp instead.
Example:
{
"username": "test{{$timestamp}}",
"password": "test"
}
For anyone who's about to downvote me this post was made before the discussion in comments with the OP (see below). I'm leaving it in place so the comment from the OP which eventually described what he needs isn't removed from the question.
From what I understand you're looking for, here's a basic solution. It's assuming that:
you're developing some kind of script where you need test data
the name field should be unique each time it's run
If your question was more specific then I'd be able to give you a more specific answer, but this is the best I can do from what's there right now.
var counter = location.hash ? parseInt(location.hash.slice(1)) : 1; // get a unique counter from the URL
var unique_name = 'Testuser' + counter; // create a unique name
location.hash = ++counter; // increase the counter by 1
You can forcibly change the counter by looking in the address bar and changing the URL from ending in #1 to #5, etc.
You can then use the variable name when you build your object:
var location = {
name: unique_name,
branding_domain_id: 'however-you-currently-get-it',
parent_id: 'however-you-currently-get-it'
};
Add the below text in pre-req:
var myUUID = require('uuid').v4();
pm.environment.set('myUUID', myUUID);
and use the myUUID wherever you want
like
name: "{{myUUID}}"
It will generate a random unique GUID for every request
var uuid = require('uuid');
pm.globals.set('unique_name', 'testuser' + uuid.v4());
add above code to the pre-request tab.
this was you can reuse the unique name for subsequent api calls.
Dynamic variable like randomInt, or guid is dynamic ie : you donot know what was send in the request. there is no way to refer it again, unless it is send back in response. even if you store it in a variable,it will still be dynamic
another way is :
var allowed = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
var shuffled_unique_str = allowed.split('').sort(function(){return 0.5-Math.random()}).join('');

"divisions":{
"ocd-division/country:us/state:co/place:aurora":{
"name":"Aurora city",
"scope":"citywide",
"officeIds":[
"O0",
"O1"]
}}
I am using Google Civic Information API to get representive information. let's say this is a part of JSON generated by Google and I want to access its elements but the issue is - i cant use "ocd-division/country:us/state:co/place:aurora" as a key, because its dynamically generated by Google.
If I search for some different address like India, the key will be different from "ocd-division/country:us/state:co/place:aurora" to something else(instead of 'us', there would be 'in'), So please suggest the way I should access in this case the value.
Please clarify if you don't understand question or need more clarification.
Parse the json to a hash:
parsed_data = JSON.parse google_data
then either iterate over all divisions:
parsed_data['divisions'].each do |division_key, division_info|
# do something with each division
end
or get only the first one:
division_key, division_info = parsed_data['divisions'].first
Use this if you want parse the key as well:
more_info = division_key.split('/').inject(Hash.new) do |hash, key_part|
if key_part.include? ":"
key, value = key_part.split ":"
hash[key] = value
end
hash
end
Now you can access it via more_info['country']
