help my code keeps giving me a name error for my lyrics value, for context the external file contains a single character
I have tried editing the external files as well as alternate ways to open the file in hand
this is the code snippet which is relevant:
with open("lyrics" ,"r") as lyrics:
lyrics=lyrics.read()
while counter>=1:
print(lyrics.read([0])," ",lyrics.read([-0]))

In the piece of code I have, there are many instances where I have the following line
'/home/myname/directory'
For example, I have the following lines of code
filepath = os.listdir('/home/myname/directory')
for content in filepath
# do something
In the next part of the project, I have to share the code with some one else. I know this person runs openSUSE. If I want code to create that specific directory with the same path to the directory as mine, what do I need to include?
I know its going to involve the OS module but i am not sure which functions and methods to use.
Your code can check the existence of the directory and create it if not found:
if not os.path.exists("/home/myname/directory"):
os.makedirs("/home/myname/directory")
# do something

SSIS - How to loop through files in folder and get path+file names and finally execute stored Procedure with parameter as Path + Filename
(2 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I have a xlsx file that will be dropped into a folder on a monthly basis. The filename will change every month (filename_8292019) based on the date, to which I cannot change.
I want to build a foreach loop to pick up the xlsx file and manipulate it (load into SQL server table, the move the file to an archive folder). I cannot figure out how to do this with a dynamic filename (where the date changes.
I was able to successfully run the package when converting the xlsx to CSV, and also when pointing directly to the xlsx filename.
[Flat File Destination [219]] Error: Cannot open the datafile "filename"
OR errors relating to file not found
The Files: entry on the Collection tab of the Foreach Loop container will accept wildcard characters.
The general pattern here is to create a variable, say, FileName. Set your Files: to something like:
Files:
BaseFileName*
or, if you want to be sure to only pick up spreadsheets, maybe:
Files:
BaseFileName*.xlsx
Select either Name and extension or Fully qualified, which will include the full file path. I usually just use Name and extension and put the file path into another variable so when Ops tells me they're moving my drop location, I can change a parameter instead of editing the package. This step tells the container to remember the name of the file it just found so you can use it later for a variable mapping.
On the Variable Mappings tab, select your variable name and assign it to Index 0.
Then, for each spreadsheet, the container will loop, pick up the name of the first file it finds that matches your pattern, and assign the full name, with the date extension (and path, if you go that way), to your variable. Pass the variable as in input parameter to the tasks inside the loop and use that to process the file, including moving it to the archive, or you'll get yourself into an infinite loop, processing the same file(s) over and over. <--Does that sound like the voice of experience? Yeah. Been there, done that.
Edit:
Here, the FullFilePath variable is just the folder name, without a file reference. (Red variable to red entry in the Folder box).
The FileBaseName variable drives what shows up in the Files box. (Blue to blue).
Another variable picks up the actual file name, with the date extension. Later, say in a File System Task, if I need the folder & file name together, I concatenate the variables.
As far as the Excel Connection Manager error you're getting, unfortunately I'm no help. I don't use it. We have SentryOne's Task Factory for SSIS which includes a much more resilient Excel connector.
I have a check.env file, in which I have some variables like
SharedAccessKey=
I want to put a value in the check.env file from my node.js code. Articles on internet are there for updating at the running time of node.js, but my requirement is to change in the file and keep the file with changes made.
How can I accomplish that.
I got this link : How to change variables in the .env file dynamically in Laravel?
but it is in some other language, how can I do in node.js.
I was unable to find out the best solution so went with another solution of mine that I took.
I am using two files now both .env extensions and I am copying main .env file to another empty .env file (like check1.env to check2.env).
Any modifications I am making is in the second file (check2.env).
And I am using string replacement in the .env file, using fs.readLine() and getting the string and the data.replace(), this worked for me.
The reason to use two .env files is that even if I change in the second file, again by copying from the first file I will get same string search and will replace with a different value.
-- Please suggest if there is an any better approach. Thanks
I am using the latest version of pyRevit, v45.
I'm writing some info in temporary files with
myTempFile = script.get_instance_data_file("id")
This creates a file named pyRevit_2018_xxxx_id.tmp in which I store useful info. If I'm not mistaken, the "xxxx" part is changing every time I reload Revit. Now, I need to get access to this information from another pyRevit script.
How can I retrieve the name of the temp file I need to read? In other words, how do I access "myTempFile" from within the second script, which has no idea of the name of "myTempFile"?
I guess I can share somehow that variable between my script, but what's the proper way to do this? I know this must be a very basic programming question, but I'm indeed not a programmer ;)
Thanks a lot,
Arnaud.
Ok, I realise now that my variables in the 1st script cease to exist after its execution.
So for now I wrote the file name in another file, of which I know the name.. That works.
But if there's a cleaner way to do this, I'd be glad to learn ;)

pyrevit.script module provides 4 different methods for creating temporary files based on their use case:
get_instance_data_file:
for data files marked with Revit instance pid. This means that scripts running on another instance will not see this temp file.
http://pyrevit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyrevit/script.html#pyrevit.script.get_instance_data_file
get_universal_data_file:
for temp files accessible to all Revit instances and versions
http://pyrevit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyrevit/script.html#pyrevit.script.get_universal_data_file
get_data_file:
Base method to get a standard temp file for current revit version
http://pyrevit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyrevit/script.html#pyrevit.script.get_data_file
get_document_data_file:
temp file marked with active document (so scripts working on another document will not see this)
http://pyrevit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyrevit/script.html#pyrevit.script.get_document_data_file
Each method uses a pattern to create the temp file name. So as long as the call to the method is the same of different scripts, the method generates the same file name.
Example:
Script 1:
from pyrevit import script
tfile = script.get_data_file('mydata')
Script 2:
from pyrevit import script
tempfile = script.get_data_file('mydata')
In this example tempfile = tfile since the file id is the same.
There is documentation on each so make sure you take a look at those and pick the flavor that serves your purpose.
I'll explain the task requested from me:
I have two containers in Azure, one called "data" and one called "script". In the "data" container there's a txt file with data, and in the "script" container there's a script file.
Now, I need programatically (with WorkerRole) to execute the script file, with the content of the data file as parameters (Example: a script file that accepts a string 's' and returns to the screen "Hello, 's'", when 's' in the string given, and in the data file there's a string), and save the result of the run into another file which needs to be saved in another container called "result".
How do I do all these? I've already uploaded the files and created the blobs programatically, but I can't seem to understand how to execute the file of how to save its result to another file?
Can I please have some help?
Thanks in advance
Here are the steps in pseudo code:
Retrieve the script from the blob(using DownloadToStream())
Compile the script(I will leave this to you as I have no idea what
format your script is)
Load parameters from blob(same as step 1)
Execute script with those parameters.
If your script's can be written as lambda expressions then this becomes a lot easier as you can turn them into Action's
Edit based on your questiions:
DownloadText() is no longer included in Azure Storage 2.0, you only have access to DownloadToStream(). Even if you are using an older version(say 1.7) I would recommend using DownloadToStream() in the event you ever upgrade in the future. This will prevent having to refactor your code.
In terms of executing your script, depending on what type of script it is(if it is c# code you can use this example: Is it possible to dynamically compile and execute C# code fragments?. If you need to execute a different type of script you would need to run it using Process.Start and you can look at this example: http://www.dotnetperls.com/process-start
I do not have much experience with point number 2 but those are the processes I have heard and seen used.
