Have you got any working DirectCanvas examples from AppMobi.com? - html

Where I can find some working code or any instruction to DirectCanvas from AppMobi.com?
There is some sample code on Git a link but I can't understand how can I Run it?

Everything right now is targeted towards ImpactJS. There are sample apps when you purchase the GameProXDK and documentation is found at http://www.appmobi.com/documentation/gamingAPI.html
We are currently working on samples for NON- ImpactJS code. The main thing is that you have two Webviews, one the canvas calls are executed in, the other is your app. The documentation talks about that and details how to make calls between the two.
http://forums.appmobi.com has a thread about getting it running standalone with a sample bundle to use.

Has anbody actually tried using directCanvas seriously? I cannot find a single blog post about somebody actually using it. The whole experience is really bad with this crazy java XDK tool/thingamagica. Took me 20mins to get CocoonJS running.

Acquiring table info with YQL XPath query on wikia

Objective
Scrap HTML table from warframe wikia.
Background
I am trying to get the information of a table in warframe, the Mods List table. To achieve this objective I read the HTML-parser on Node.js topic and concluded that using YQL was my best option.
Code
By using Google Chrome Dev Tools, and two chrome extensions called CSS and XPath checker and XPath Helper, I was able to pin point the exact location of the table I am looking for with the following XPath query:
//*[#id="mw-content-text"]/div[33]/div/div[1]/table/tbody
Now, Chrome says this is the correct path, and the plugins I am using suggest it as well.
Problem
The problem is that when I use YQL, the result in Json is something utterly and completely different from the talbe I am expecting. In fact, it returns a different table together with misc data.
I am baffled to why this is happening. The wikia is a simple HTML page with little to no dynamic information whatsoever, so I really can't understand why I am getting erroneous results.
What could the problem be?
Unfortunately, YQL does not work properly with pages that are loaded over time, as is the case wit the wikia.
So, even then the XPath is correct, when Yahoo makes the first (and only) request, it receives an incomplete HTML, and never completes it.
To fix the issue, I decided instead to locally parse the HTML in my nodejs server using the npm-request and npm-cheerio packages.
The first package downloads the full page HTML, and the second parses it for the information I am looking for.
An effective solution that instead of relying on a third party tool, transfers all the work to my server.
Hope this helps someone, in the future !

Library with identifier LabelServices is missing (perhaps it was deleted?) / Something went wrong. Please reload

I have posted this on google-apps-script-issues (https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/detail?id=4723&can=4&colspec=Stars%20Opened%20ID%20Type%20Status%20Summary%20Component%20Owner) but with no response I am getting desperate as all my sheets and scripts are breaking down. So I hope someone here might have encountered this and have some idea for me how to handle this.
Some of my exiting scripts (including some in spreadsheets) suddenly started throwing the exception 'Library with identifier LabelServices is missing (perhaps it was deleted?)'.
I tried deleting the library reference in some of the scripts that were throwing this error and re-adding it but the same error comes up. I even defined a new library with the same name and try to use it instead. Still the same error.
Most likely a related error, when trying to open project properties to these scripts I see the message 'Something went wrong. Please reload.' and the hourglass never stops. This happens at both standalone scripts and ones embeded in spreadsheets.
Please note that if I add the same library to a new script then there is no problem and the library works perfectly.
I would like to add that even if I remove the library and also any calls or references to the library the problem still persists.
Link to a script where this happens is available at https://script.google.com/d/1ptevXwu25z9Vo88zX0XOyaQk5pE5MmzwDbb-lMglNY1lzz1HBBiAeJxn/edit?usp=drive_web
You can copy it and play with it. You should get the same problem.
Appreciate any help!!!
Andrew. First of all thank you as you triggered something in my mind. I went all the way bottom up and checked each script and a library it was calling. There were obviously dependencies, however nothing that should have been a problem. a couple of libraries even though in development mode seem to cause a problem. I had to create a new version but it was not enough just to update their version in other scripts. In the calling scripts I had to remove all libraries and re-add them one by one while testing whether the project properties shows up or not. I just wish Google would have a utility to clearly highlight what was wrong because I can't figure it out though I went twice through their documentation in regard to libraries and development mode. Since I have about 30 libraries or so, not to mention spreadsheets and apps it took me nearly a whole day... Thanks again!
To all, it seems that there is a problem where sometimes libraries get out of sync (at least that's the best way I can describe it). You may need to create new versions for the libraries (even though these are in development mode. And in each problematic script remove and re-add the libraries (in at lease a couple of transactions - first remove and confirm then add - and better one at the time while checking that your project properties opens properly). This solved the problem for me.

.NET WebApi jsonapi.org support

Does anyone know if there is a media formatter out there to support the jsonapi.org spec (application/vnd.api+json).
If not has anyone started (or looking at starting) a project to implement this?
For the record, as of today the answer seems to be no. Best I could find was this guy: http://www.emadibrahim.com/2014/04/09/emberjs-and-asp-net-web-api-and-json-serialization/ and that only tackles a tiny part of the problem.
I've been trying this for a while…unfortunately I tried to make something that was really smart and would automagically handle a data model from Entity Framework with almost no work. I was getting close to thinking about releasing it...and then I found out they changed a bunch of stuff in EF 6 (all models are supposed to be POCOs and the context is now a DbContext instead of an ObjectContext) and I'm probably going to have to essentially start over…which is why I started looking again to see if someone else was doing it and found your question.
Let me know if you're still looking for this, and I'll keep you updated.
UPDATE
I've just published a codeplex project that aims to provide exactly what I've described above. It's called JSONAPI.NET and while it's very early, it already does quite a bit. Documentation is sparse, and I don't have NuGet packages yet…but take a look everyone and see if it's useful for you. Feedback is encouraged! You can contact me from the project page in the link.

Castle.TypedFactory.DefaultInterfaceFactoryComponentSelector could not be resolved

I am following example by José F. Romaniello on session management with NHibernate. It's a very good article, however I'm struggling with it having very little experience with NHibernate, Windsor and MVC.
I am trying to re-create NHibernateInstaller, however encountering the following error: Component Castle.TypedFactory.DefaultInterfaceFactoryComponentSelector could not be resolved. Make sure you didn't misspell the name, and that component is registered.
In the sample project provided this error does not crop up, even though the installer is identical and Google does not come up with any results (which is very unusual). What causes this and how can it be avoided?
it seems a problem with the TypedFactoryFacility... are you doing this?
kernel.AddFacility<TypedFactoryFacility>();
before running all the installers?
uncomment the following code in Bootstrapper.cs file.
container.AddFacility();
This happened to me when I created my own implementation of ITypedFactoryComponentSelector, but forgot to register the selector itself.
There was no indication this was the actual problem (and the kernel debug information assured me the components can be resolved) - but registering it fixed the issue.
Hope this helps someone :-)

JSP/.NET XML - simple client to display html

I am fairly proficient in PHP, but just starting out in ASP.Net and JSP/Java
I would like to learn JSP/ASP.NET XML to HTML transformation with some simple practical examples. Im not looking to learn how to edit XML, just displaying it, but im having trouble finding definitive examples/tutorials.
Ive spent quite a while studying JSP/ASP.NET but quickly find how vast they are and how many different ways there are to do this (quite frankly im a bit overwhelmed). I would be really grateful for advice before I embark upon this journey (and perhaps I will be saved from going in the completely wrong direction). If there are any tutorials or especially example apps you could point me towards this would really help (i like to do hands on learning)
For this I expect I need to do the following:
1) Set up a server for each technology (im using Tomcat and IIS at the moment - are these the best?)
2) Use some parameter based routing system (MVC?, but this is most surely overkill for me)
3) Parse the XML and create some variables/objects
4) Display the HTML (Use template libraries (JSTL? not sure for ASP.NET))
Any tutorials/example apps you could point me towards to help me through the above steps will be truly appreciated.
Thankyou
Ke
By the sounds of your skillset, carefully working through this developerworks tutorial on JSTL looks like a good place for you to start. It does cover the XML handling libs around part 4, and it'll also help you avoid the mistake of using scriptlets where JSTL would give cleaner, less error-prone and much more readable code.
You'll also most likely want IDE support, so that you get documentation, syntax checking and autocomplete. I personally use Eclipse (The EE download will have everything you need and more) but NetBeans might be the most straightforward to get your started.
Tomcat will be fine to get you started, but these IDEs tend to have build in web containers to save you time in deploying and testing.
