Is there any way to write to a text file in Flex 4.6? Its a desktop app for AIR. I would like to write the data from several arrays, as well as the time and date.
Threw a simple logger together for this test project:
http://www.shaunhusain.com/DrawTextRandomly/srcview/
it's in src/util/Logger.as
As is it marks the first time a log entry is made then counts the time from then till all other log entries and outputs it along with the logged string, it also outputs the time difference from the last log entry so you can get some idea of how long it takes for a function/algorithm/operation to complete. Feel free to grab this, albeit just a test snippet I should probably post a license on my code, I'll update the src folders with a license.txt with MIT License http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html
You can re-purpose this class and have it write using a FileStream/File object in Flex. File itself is basically a handle to a particular file, FileStream will allow you to call writeUTFBytes(string) to write data to a file.
Code would be something like this:
var fs:FileStream = new FileStream();
fs.open(new File("logfile.txt"),FileMode.WRITE);
fs.writeUTFBytes("Some output");
fs.close();

The as3corelib has a FileTarget class that can be used with the Flex Logging API.
This documentation page explains how to use the logging API.

In my Coded UI Test project, I need to check if few Labels or Messages are consistent with the context. But those checks are not critical if not consistent and I need to output them only as warnings.
Note that I'm using nested ordered tests to use only one global ordered test with vstest.console.exe and get in one shot the overall test coverage report.
Till now I was creating assertions to check those consistencies, but an assertion failure leads to Test failure, then to ordered test failure and then to playback stop.
I tried to change Playback.PlaybackSettings.ContinueOnError value before and after the assertion: this works as I expect as the assertion is well reported as a warning in the html report file. But whatever, it causes the ordered test to stop and then my global ordered test chaining to fail...
I tried to use TestContext.WriteLine too instead of creating assert, but it seems that this is not output in the html report.
So my question is:
is there any way to create an assertion only as a Warning that will be output in the html report file and that doesn't lead to a test failure?
Thanks a lot for any answer and help on this ;)
So I got my solution with developping my own Warning Engine to integrate Warnings in test report, 'cause I found no existing solution for that with the current Coded UI Test Assertion engine.
I'll try to take some time to post generic parts of the code structure with comments translated in english (we're french so default comments are french for now...), but here are the main step lines :
Create a template based on the UITestActionLog.html original file
report structure of Coded UI Test engine, with only the start
bloc and the javascript functions and CSS declarations in it.
Create an assertion class with a main function to manage insertion
of Warning html bloc in the html report first created from the template.
Then create custom assert functions to call the main function
whereever on runtime, and custom Stopwatch to inject elapsed time in
the report ('cause I could'nt found a way to get back the elapsed
time directly from the Coded UI Test engine).
That's it.
Just a proposition as a way to do it, maybe not the best one but it worked for me. I'll try to take time to put blocl codes to be clearer on it.
I want to track pipeline changes in source control, and I'm looking for a way to programmatically retrieve the json representation from the ADF.
The .Net routines return the objects, but sadly ToString() does not return json (wouldn't THAT be convenient?), so right now I'm looking at copying the json down by hand (shoot me now!), or possibly trying to recreate the json from the .Net objects (shoot me later!).
Please tell me I'm being dense and there is an obvious way to do this.
You can serialize the object using Newtonsoft Json.
See (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/data-factory-create-data-factories-programmatically/) for how to connect via the ADF SDK
var aadTokenCredentials = new TokenCloudCredentials(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SubscriptionId"], GetAuthorizationHeader());
var resourceManagerUri = new Uri(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ResourceManagerEndpoint"]);
var manager = new DataFactoryManagementClient(aadTokenCredentials, resourceManagerUri);
var pipeline = manager.Pipelines.Get(resourceGroupName, dataFactoryName, pipelineName);
var pipelineAsJson = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(pipeline.Pipeline, Formatting.Indented);
I was expecting something more complex but looking at the sdk source GitHub it is not doing anything special.
Our team has a deployment tool that takes git changes and deploy them appropriately. Everything is done asynchronously and being controlled and versioned through git.
In a nutshell our deployment has the following flow:
Any completed git merge request triggers a VSO build. This is simply
building the whole solution via MsBuild.
Every successful build is applied a Git tag for tracking of Last Known Good.
Next (if build succeeded) our .net ADFPublisher starts by taking only the changed data factory files and asynchronously publishing them based on their
git operation (modified, add, delete, etc.).
For some failures cases our ADFPublisher will perform a retry.
This whole process (Build + publish) takes ~ 65 seconds and has
already saved us from having several bugs. It also allows us to move
definitions from one environment to another very easily.
Let me know if you think this is something that you will be interested in and I will setup a way to share it with you
Please correct me where I'm wrong (still learning Gulp, Streams, etc.) I'd like to create a custom reporter for my gulp-jscs results. For example, let's say I have 3 files in my gulp.src() stream. To my knowledge, each is piped one at a time through jscs, which attaches a .jscs object onto the file with its results, one such variable in that object is .errorCount.
What I'd like to do is have a variable I create, ie: maxErrors which I set to, say 5. Since we're processing 3 files, let's say the first file passes with 0 errors, but the next has 3 errors. I don't want to prematurely stop processing since the maxErrors tally has not been reached (3/5 currently). So it should continue to process the next file which lets say has 3 errors as well, putting us over our max, so that we interrupt jscs from continuing to process more files and instead fail out and then let our custom reporter function gain access to the files that have been processed so I can look at their .jscs objects and customize some output.
My problem here is that I don't understand the docs when they say: .pipe(jscs.reporter('name-of-reporter')) How does a string value invoke my reporter (which currently exists as a function I've imported called libs.reporters.myJSCSReporter. I know pipe() expects Stream objects, so I can't just put a function in the .pipe() call.
I hope I've explained myself well enough (please ask for clarifications otherwise).
I have a project in Apps script that uses several libraries. The project needed a more complex logger (logging levels, color coding) so I wrote one that outputs to google docs. All is fine and dandy if I immediately print the output to the google doc, when I import the logger in all of the libraries separately. However I noticed that when doing a lot of logging it takes much longer than without. So I am looking for a way to write all of the output in a single go at the end when the main script finishes.
This would require either:
Being able to define the logging library once (in the main file) and somehow accessing this in the attached libs. I can't seem to find a way to get the main projects closure from within the libraries though.
Some sort of singleton logger object. Not sure if this is possible from with a library, I have trouble figuring it out either way.
Extending the built-in Logger to suit my needs, not sure though...
My project looks at follows:
Main Project
Library 1
Library 2
Library 3
Library 4
This is how I use my current logger:
var logger = new BetterLogger(/* logging level */);
logger.warn('this is a warning');
Thanks!
Instead of writing to the file at each logged message (which is the source of your slow down), you could write your log messages to the Logger Library's ScriptDB instance and add a .write() method to your logger that will output the messages in one go. Your logger constructor can take a messageGroup parameter which can serve as a unique identifier for the lines you would like to write. This would also allow you to use different files for logging output.
As you build your messages into proper output to write to the file (don't write each line individually, batch operations are your friend), you might want to remove the message from the ScriptDB. However, it might also be a nice place to pull back old logs.
Your message object might look something like this:
{
message: "My message",
color: "red",
messageGroup: "groupName",
level: 25,
timeStamp: new Date().getTime(), //ScriptDB won't take date objects natively
loggingFile: "Document Key"
}
The query would look like:
var db = ScriptDb.getMyDb();
var results = db.query({messageGroup: "groupName"}).sortBy("timeStamp",db.NUMERIC);
I have a CakePHP 1.2 application that makes a number of AJAX calls using the AjaxHelper object. The AjaxHelper makes a call to a controller function which then returns some data back to the page.
I would like to log the SQL queries that are executed by the AJAX controller functions. Normally, I would just turn the debug level to 2 in config/core.php, however, this breaks my AJAX functionality because it causes the output SQL queries to be appended to the output that is returned to the client side.
To get around this issue, I would like to be able to log any SQL queries performed to a log file. Any suggestions?
I found a nice way of adding this logging functionality at this link:
http://cakephp.1045679.n5.nabble.com/Log-SQL-queries-td1281970.html
Basically, in your cake/libs/model/datasources/dbo/ directory, you can make a subclass of the dbo that you're using. For example, if you're using the dbo_mysql.php database driver, then you can make a new class file called dbo_mysql_with_log.php. The file would contain some code along the lines of the following:
App::import('Core', array('Model', 'datasource', 'dbosource', 'dbomysql'));
class DboMysqlWithLog extends DboMysql {
function _execute($sql) {
$this->log($sql);
return parent::_execute($sql);
}
}
In a nutshell, this class modifies (i.e. overrides) the _execute function of the superclass to log the SQL query before doing whatever logic it normally does.
You can modify your app/config/database.php configuration file to use the new driver that you just created.
This is a fantastic way to debug things like this, https://github.com/cakephp/debug_kit
