How do you paginate the results from a Custom Finder in CakePHP 3 (specifically 3.7)?
I have a Model with a custom finder in it:
// src/Model/Table/RevisionFiltersTable.php
public function findRegulatoryNotifications($date_start, $date_end, $regulation_id = 1, $u_id, $o_id, $count_only = false)
{
}
Inside this finder there are methods to use the ORM and execute a query, returning $query->toArray()
At the moment I am calling this manually in a Controller method as follows:
$RevisionFilters = TableRegistry::getTableLocator()->get('RevisionFilters');
$data = $RevisionFilters->findRegulatoryNotifications(...);
It returns all the correct data but isn't paginated. For example if there are 55 rows I get an array with 55 keys.
The parameters I'm passing in are appropriate for the signature of findRegulatoryNotifications()
I've read about using Pagination and Custom Finders in the docs https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/controllers/components/pagination.html#using-controller-paginate
But I can't see how to do this in my Controller.
The docs give this as an example:
$this->paginate = [
'finder' => [
'tagged' => $customFinderOptions
]
];
So I assumed I could do something like:
$RevisionFilters->paginate = [
'finder' => [
'regulatoryNotifications' => $customFinderOptions
]
];
I don't understand what $customFinderOptions should be set to in this case.
Assuming I could get past this how would I then pass in my arguments to findRegulatoryNotifications()?
Can't provide more code than this as I've no idea how to set this up.
That's not what a finder method is supposed to look like, finders accept only two arguments, the first being the query itself, and the second being an array of options (which are passed to the second argument of Query::find()), and that's what $customFinderOptions would be in that example, an array of options.
What you have there is just a table method, if you wanted to use that for pagination, the method would need to return a query object, you'd invoke the method manually and pass its return value to the paginator.

I want to get all the attributes from my "Actual Item Inventry" (From Stock Items Form) so i have:
PXResultset<CSAnswers> res = PXSelectJoin<CSAnswers,
InnerJoin<InventoryItem,
On<CSAnswers.refNoteID, Equal<Current<InventoryItem.noteID>>>
>
>.Select(new PXGraph());
But, this returns me 0 rows.
Where is my error?
UPDATED:
My loop is like this:
foreach (PXResult<CSAnswers> record in res)
{
CSAnswers answers = (CSAnswers)record;
string refnoteid = answers.RefNoteID.ToString();
string value = answers.Value;
}
... but i can not go inside foreach.
Sorry for the English.
You should use an initialized graph rather than just "new PXGraph()" for the select. This can be as simple as "this" or "Base" depending on where this code is located. There are times that it is ok to initialize a new graph instance, but also times that it is not ok. Not knowing the context of your code sample, let's assume that "this" and "Base" were insufficient, and you need to initialize a new graph. If you need to work within another graph instance, this is how your code would look.
InventoryItemMaint graph = PXGraph<InventoryItemMaint>.CreateInstance<InventoryItemMaint>();
PXResultset<CSAnswers> res = PXSelectJoin<CSAnswers,
InnerJoin<InventoryItem, On<CSAnswers.refNoteID, Equal<Current<InventoryItem.noteID>>>>>
.Select(graph);
foreach (PXResult<CSAnswers> record in res)
{
CSAnswers answers = (CSAnswers)record;
string refnoteid = answers.RefNoteID.ToString();
string value = answers.Value;
}
However, since you should be initializing graph within a graph or graph extension, you should be able to use:
.Select(this) // To use the current graph containing this logic
or
.Select(Base) // To use the base graph that is being extended if in a graph extension
Since you are referring to:
Current<InventoryItem.noteID>
...but are using "new PXGraph()" then there is no "InventoryItem" to be in the current data cache of the generic base object PXGraph. Hence the need to reference a fully defined graph.
Another syntax for specifying exactly what value you want to pass in is to use a parameter like this:
var myNoteIdVariable = ...
InventoryItemMaint graph = PXGraph<InventoryItemMaint>.CreateInstance<InventoryItemMaint>();
PXResultset<CSAnswers> res = PXSelectJoin<CSAnswers,
InnerJoin<InventoryItem, On<CSAnswers.refNoteID, Equal<Required<InventoryItem.noteID>>>>>
.Select(graph, myNoteIdVariable);
foreach (PXResult<CSAnswers> record in res)
{
CSAnswers answers = (CSAnswers)record;
string refnoteid = answers.RefNoteID.ToString();
string value = answers.Value;
}
Notice the "Required" and the extra value in the Select() section. A quick and easy way to check if you have a value for your parameter is to use PXTrace to write to the Trace that you can check after refreshing the screen and performing whatever action would execute your code:
PXTrace.WriteInformation(myNoteIdVariable.ToString());
...to see if there is a value in myNoteIdVariable to retrieve a result set. Place that outside of the foreach block or you will only get a value in the trace when you actually get records... which is not happening in your case.
If you want to get deep into what SQL statements are being generated and executed, look for Request Profiler in the menus and enable SQL logging while you run a test. Then come back to check the results. (Remember to disable the SQL logging when done or you can generate a lot of unnecessary data.)
I am trying to re-create AutoQuery queries outside of a service request. I am doing this because I give user option to save a request and then use that data elsewhere. I save the query string data so I am trying to create a query from the saved query string.
I need 2 things.
1) query that returns the complete data not limited by default autoquery page size
2) query that returns the count
I tried making the query like this:
IAutoQueryDb _autoQuery = HostContext.TryResolve<IAutoQueryDb>();
var dto = new MyQueryDbClass();
Dictionary<string, string> pars = GetParameters();
var query = _autoQuery.CreateQuery(dto, pars);
The problem with this is that the query generated has the table name of the response object and not the actual table so it doesn't work. Also I am unable to call ToCountSatement() on it. It is also limited by my default page size.
Is there a way to convert the AutoQuery query string to a SqlExpression so I can execute it and also get count statement?
The CreateQuery() API returns a populated SqlExpression<Table> similar to what would have been created if manually constructing the query yourself, e.g:
SqlExpression<Table> query = _autoQuery.CreateQuery(dto, pars);
To clear the paging info you can call .Limit() without arguments which will clear any populated Offset/Rows values:
query.Limit();
The Custom AutoQuery Implementations docs shows an example of AutoQuery executes the query behind the scenes, e.g. you can get the total with:
var total = Db.Count(query);
I'm using Watir-5.0.0, selenium-webdriver-2.40 and testing on IE-8. When I execute the following code:
puts "#browser.tables.length=#{#browser.tables.length}"
#browser.tables.each { |t| puts t.to_s }
t=#browser.table(:class => "jrPage")
puts "jrPage=#{t}"
t.rows.each do |row|
# do something
end
I get the following results:
#browser.tables.length=5
#<Watir::Table:0x3921cc0>
#<Watir::Table:0x3921c48>
#<Watir::Table:0x3921c00>
#<Watir::Table:0x3921bd0>
#<Watir::Table:0x3921b88>
jrPage=#<Watir::Table:0x39219d8>
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::StaleElementReferenceError: Element is no longer valid
Any thoughts on why is table I explicitly locate, Watir::Table:0x39219d8, is not in the #browser.tables.each collection?
I can understand why I get the StaleElementReferenceError (table not found) but not why the table I explicit locate isn't in the tables list.
I can find this table in the HTML.
The code is calling to_s for the table object. Watir-webdriver does not specifically define this method for elements. Therefore, it calls Ruby's default Object#to_s method:
Returns a string representing obj. The default to_s prints the
object’s class and an encoding of the object id. As a special case,
the top-level object that is the initial execution context of Ruby
programs returns “main.”
As you can see, this is what Watir is doing - Watir::Table is the object's class and 0x39219d8 is an encoding of the object id.
When iterating through the tables or getting a table, you are retrieving the table from scratch. In other words, a new table object is created for each of these commands. Even if you run the collection again, you will see that you get 4 different table object ids each time.
Note that while the table objects you are seeing are unique, the jsPage is referring to one of the elements in the collection. You can use the == method to check if two objects are referencing the same html element.
For example, you can see this with:
# Get the specific jrPage
jrPage = browser.table(:class => "jrPage")
# Check which element in the collection is the jrPage
browser.tables.each { |t| puts t == jrPage }
#=> false
#=> false
#=> true
#=> false
#=> false
The above tells you that the jrPage is the 3rd table on the page.
I'm writing a workflow validator in Groovy to link two issues based on a custom field value input at case creation. It is required that the custom filed value to Jira issue link be unique. In other words, I need to ensure only one issue has a particular custom field value. If there is more than one issue that has the input custom field value, the validation should fail.
How or what do I return to cause a workflow validator to fail?
Example code:
// Set up jqlQueryParser object
jqlQueryParser = ComponentManager.getComponentInstanceOfType(JqlQueryParser.class) as JqlQueryParser
// Form the JQL query
query = jqlQueryParser.parseQuery('<my_jql_query>')
// Set up SearchService object used to query Jira
searchService = componentManager.getSearchService()
// Run the query to get all issues with Article number that match input
results = searchService.search(componentManager.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getUser(), query, PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter())
// Throw a FATAL level log statement because we should never have more than one case associated with a given KB article
if (results.getIssues().size() > 1) {
for (r in results.getIssues()) {
log.fatal('Custom field has more than one Jira ssue associated with it. ' + r.getKey() + ' is one of the offending issues')
}
return "?????"
}
// Create link from new Improvement to parent issue
for (r in results) {
IssueLinkManager.createIssueLink(issue.getId(), r.getId(), 10201, 1, getJiraAuthenticationContext().getUser())
}
try something like
import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException
invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("Validation failure")
this is based of the groovy script runner. If it doesn't work for you, i would recommend you using some sort of framework to make scripting easier, I like using either groovy script runner , Jira Scripting Suite or Behaviours Plugin
. All of them really makes script writing easier and much more intuitive.
Using NetSuite is it possible to embed a search within another search? I have a search that I need that will be effectively using another search's results in the criteria.
The basic structure of my search is:
Return all non-inventory skus, starting with a specific prefix,
Where the occurrence of the previously mentioned skus on a custom field on
Inventory-Part records is greater than 0.
This is then intended to be used for alerts
I'm not sure how to build this within NetSuite's search builder.
I don't think this pertains to any scripting as m_cheung suggested.
To answer your question, yes this is doable via saved search.
Transaction > Management > Saved Search > New
Select 'Item' from the list
In the criteria section:
Type = 'Non-Inventory Items'
External ID = starts with (...your desired prefix) (NOTE: Assuming that prefix is the external ID from your question)
Select the Custom field and criteria is greater than 0.
Save and Run to confirm if this is the desired result.
using nlapiSearchRecord(RECORDTYPE, JOIN_, __SEARCHFILTERSARRAY, __SEARCHCOLUMNSARRAY) you can return the results of a search and pass the returned data further into script logic
for example if you build search1 using a searchFilter array and a searchColumn array then pass these arrays into nlapiSearchRecord('item'), you can assign this call to a variable:
var searchresults = nlapiSearchRecord('item', null, searchFiltersArray, searchColumnsArray);
then using searchresults (which is an nlobjSearchResults object) you can pull out your returned search data for criteria in search2:
if(searchresults)
{
for(i=0;i<searchresults.length; i++)
{
var search2FilterAndColumnData = searchresults[i].getAllColumns();
}
}
You can use a saved search for creating another search in suitescript.
Somewhat like ,
var arrSearchResult = nlapiSearchRecord( null , SAVED_SEARCH_ID , FILTERS , COLUMNS);
