Asciidoctor: how to layout two code blocks side by side? - asciidoctor

Is it possible to have two code blocks side-by-side using Asciidoctor? I could not find any examples in the documentation or on SO.

Yes:

Python // Reading from lines following a given input

I am trying to get Python to find text in a file that appears after a query I give it. For instance, the familiar "sources.list". I want to get everything in the same line after every instance of the text "deb". Take my Raspberry Pi's "sources.list":
deb [link]
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
#deb-src [link] jessie main contrib non-free rpi
deb [link] jessie main
deb [link] oldstable main
Now I want to retrieve everything that appears after each instance of "deb" and stick it into a separate file. Is that possible in Python?
First off, Gratz, you are the reason I made this account lol,
secondly, assuming you are like me and you frontline the python releases, you are using python 3(.6),
Getting specific with Strings is something handled extremely well in Python,
I'ma make this fast, and let you figure out the rest (For you, not just for me.)
Python's dirty syntax allows things to be fairly generic while also being incredibly specific. There are a couple of ways you could get this done but for your particular example I would just use the space method, which is using spaces to isolate results despite their changing/varying lengths and character-makeups.
StringYouWantToParse = "deb [link] jessie deb [link] oldstable"
Notice the spaces in the string. Based on what you posted, that is more or less an accurate example of the kind of string you would end up with, after extracting them all from the list.

(P.S: That code is hand script. I did not test this in any way. But due to its simplistic nature I'm pretty sure it would work, but again, don't let me have all the fun, your ability to code is directly correlated with your true desire to learn.)

Use the same examples in multiple Cucumber scenario outlines

How do I structure tests for the following program:
I'm writing a unit test framework for simulated combinatorial circuits. This framework will support multiple digital logic simulators (JLS, Logisim, TKGate, etc.) Thus, each test should be run once for each supported simulator.
My first idea is to do something like this:
Scenario Outline: Test of valid circuit
when I run DLUnit with "testCircuit1.<type> testFile"
Then I should see "All tests (4) passed." on stdout
Examples:
| type |
| jls | # extension for JLS files
| circ | # extension for Logisim files
| v | # extension for tkgate files
Scenario Outline: Test of invalid circuit
when I run DLUnit with "brokenCircuit1.<type> testFile"
Then I should see "There were failures" on stdout
Examples:
| type |
| jls |
| circ |
| v |
# Many more tests to follow
Although this will technically work, it results in feature code that may be difficult to maintain: Each feature is followed by a list of supported simulators. Adding support for an additional simulator would require adding the same line to each test.
I could also create jls.feature, then use sed to automatically create logisim.feature and tkgate.feature; but, I'd like to avoid that type of complexity if Cucumber offers a simpler built-in solution.
Perhaps you could do something like this in RSpec:
describe DLUnit do
[
'jls', 'testCircuit1', true,
'jls', 'brokenCircuit1', false,
# ...
].each do |simulator, circuit, expected_validity|
it "with the #{simulator} simulator finds the #{circuit} circuit #{expected_validity ? 'valid' : 'invalid' }" do
actual_output = DLUnit.run "#{circuit.simulator}" # obviously I'm making this part up
expect(actual_output).to include(expected_validity ? 'passed' : 'failures')
end
end
end
The test code itself is a little involved, but you only have to write it once, and the RSpec output should be clear.
Not much of an upgrade to what you already have but how about merging into one scenario outline.
Addition of new simulator you will need to make two changes in one examples table. Also you can make it more configurable in terms of changes in a different valid test file for two simulators or different result messages. But same can be done for your existing solution all be it you will have to do change the steps and examples.
Scenario Outline: Testing circuit
when I run <kind> DLUnit with "<circuit>.<type> testFile"
Then I should see <result> on stdout
Examples:
| type | kind | circuit | result |
| jls | valid | testCircuit1 | All tests (4) passed |
| jls | invalid | brokenCircuit1 | There were failures |
| circ | valid | testCircuit1 | All tests (4) passed |
| circ | invalid | brokenCircuit1 | There were failures |
| v | valid | testCircuit1 | All tests (4) passed |
| v | invalid | brokenCircuit1 | There were failures |

Parsing in Linux

I want to parse the compute zones in open-stack command output as below
+-----------------------+----------------------------------------+

+-----------------------+----------------------------------------+

i want to parse the result as below, taking only nodes having nova-compute
Compute01;Compute02
I used below command:
nova availability-zone-list | awk 'NR>2 {print $2}' | grep -v '|' | tr '\n' ';'
but it returns output like this
;internal;Compute01;Compute02;nova;;
In Perl (and written rather more verbosely than is really necessary):
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use 5.010;
my $node; # Store current node name
my #compute_nodes; # Store known nova-compute nodes
while (<>) { # Read from STDIN
# If we find the start of line, followed by a pipe, a space and
# a series of word characters...
if (/^\| (\w+)/) {
# Store the series of word characters (i.e. the node name) in $node
$node = $1;
}
# If we find a line that contains "nova-compute", add the current
# node name in #compute_nodes
push #compute_nodes, $node if /nova-compute/;
}
# Print out all of the values in #compute_nodes
say join ';', #compute_nodes;
I detest one-line programs except for the most simple of applications. They are unnecessarily cryptic, they have none of the usual programming support, and they are stored only in the terminal buffer. Want to do the same thing tomorrow? You must start coding again
Here's a Perl solution. Run it as
$ perl nova-compute.pl command-output.txt
use strict;
use warnings 'all';
my ($node, #nodes);
while ( <> ) {
$node = $1 if /^ \| \s* (\w+) /x;
push #nodes, $node if /nova-compute/;
}
print join(';', #nodes), "\n";
output
Compute01;Compute02
Now all of that is saved on disk. It may be run again at any time, modified for similar results, or fixed if you got it wrong. It is also readable. No contest
$ nova availability-zone-list | awk '/^[|] [^|]/{node=$2} node && /nova-compute/ {s=s ";" node} END{print substr(s,2)}'
Compute01;Compute02
How it works:
/^[|] [^|]/{node=$2}
Any time a line begins with | followed by space followed by a character not |, then save the second field as a node name.
node && /nova-compute/ {s=s ";" node}
If node is non-empty and the current line contains nova-compute, then append node to the string s.
END{print substr(s,2)}
After we have read all the lines, print out string s minus its first character which is a superfluous ;.

Array placeholder in Gherkin syntax

Hi I am trying to write express a set of requirements in gherkin syntax, but it requires a good deal of repetition. I saw here that I can use placeholders which would be perfect for my task, however some of the data in my Given and in my then are collections. How would I go about representing collections in the examples?
Given a collection of spaces <spaces>
And a <request> to allocate space
When I allocate the request
Then I should have <allocated_spaces>
Examples:
| spaces | request | allocated_spaces |
| ? | ? | ? |
A bit hacky, but you can delimit a string:
Given a collection of spaces <spaces>
And a <request> to allocate space
When I allocate the request
Then I should have <allocated_spaces>
Examples:
| spaces | request | allocated_spaces |
| a,b,c | ? | ? |
Given(/^a collection of spaces (.*?)$/) do |arg1|
collection = arg1.split(",") #=> ["a","b","c"]
end
You can use Data Tables. I never try to have param in data table before, but in theory it should work.
Given a collection of spaces:
| space1 |
| space2 |
| <space_param> |
And a <request> to allocate space
When I allocate the request
Then I should have <allocated_spaces>
Examples:
| space_param | request | allocated_spaces |
| ? | ? | ? |
The given data table would be an instance of Cucumber::Ast::Table, checkout the rubydoc for its API.
Here's an example, again using split, but without the regex:
Scenario Outline: To ensure proper allocation
Given a collection of spaces <spaces>
And a <request> to allocate space
When I allocate the request
Then I should have <allocated_spaces>
Examples:
| spaces | request | allocated_spaces |
| "s1, s2, s3" | 2 | 2 |
| "s1, s2, s3" | 3 | 3 |
| "s1, s2" | 3 | 2 |
I use cucumber-js so this is what the code may look like:
Given('a collection of spaces {stringInDoubleQuotes}', function (spaces, callback) {
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
this.availableSpaces = spaces.split(", ");
callback();
});
Given('a {int} to allocate space', function (numToAllocate, callback) {
this.numToAllocate = numToAllocate;
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
callback();
});
When('I allocate the request', function (callback) {
console.log("availableSpaces:", this.availableSpaces);
console.log("numToAllocate:", this.numToAllocate);
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
callback();
});
Then('I should have {int}', function (int, callback) {
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
callback(null, 'pending');
});

How to reuse Cucumber step definition with a table for the last parameter?

This code:
Then %{I should see the following data in the "Feeds" data grid:
| Name |
| #{name} |}
And this one:
Then "I should see the following data in the \"Feeds\" data grid:
| Name |
| #{name} |"
And this:
Then "I should see the following data in the \"Feeds\" data grid:\n| Name |\n| #{name} |"
And even this:
Then <<EOS
I should see the following data in the "Feeds" data grid:
| Name |
| #{name} |
EOS
Gives me:
Your block takes 2 arguments, but the Regexp matched 1 argument.
(Cucumber::ArityMismatchError)
tests/endtoend/step_definitions/instruments_editor_steps.rb:29:in `/^the editor shows "([^"]*)" in the feeds list$/'
melomel-0.6.0/lib/melomel/cucumber/data_grid_steps.rb:59:in `/^I should see the following data in the "([^"]*)" data grid:$/'
tests/endtoend/instruments_editor.feature:11:in `And the editor shows "myFeed" in the feeds list
This one:
Then "I should see the following data in the \"Feeds\" data grid: | Name || #{name} |"
And this one:
Then "I should see the following data in the \"Feeds\" data grid:| Name || #{name} |"
Gives:
Undefined step: "I should see the following data in the "Feeds" data grid:| Name || myFeed |" (Cucumber::Undefined)
./tests/endtoend/step_definitions/instruments_editor_steps.rb:31:in `/^the editor shows "([^"]*)" in the feeds list$/'
tests/endtoend/instruments_editor.feature:11:in `And the editor shows "myFeed" in the feeds list'
I've found the answer myself:
steps %Q{
Then I should see the following data in the "Feeds" data grid:
| Name |
| #{name} |
}
NOTE ON THE ABOVE: might seem obvious, but the new line after the first '{' is soooooo important
Another way:
Given /^My basic step:$/ do |table|
#do table operation
end
Given /^My referring step:$/ do |table|
table.hashes.each do |row|
row_as_table = %{
|prop1|prop2|
|#{row[:prop1]}|#{row[:prop2]}|
}
Given %{My basic step:}, Cucumber::Ast::Table.parse(row_as_table, "", 0)
end
end
You can also write it this way, using #table
Then /^some other step$/ do
Then %{I should see the following data in the "Feeds" data grid:}, table(%{
| Name |
| #{name} |
})
end
Consider using
Given /^events with:-$/ do |table|
Given %{I am on the event admin page}
table.hashes.each do |row|
Given %{an event with:-}, Cucumber::Ast::Table.new([row]).transpose
end
end
I find that much more elegant that building up the table by hand.
events with:- gets a table like this
| Form | Element | Label |
| foo | bar | baz |
and an event with:- gets a table like
| Form | foo |
| Element | bar |
| Label | baz |
