I'm wondering if there is any way to add the values of two variables in morphlines, without having to write a custom command.
For example, something like:
addValues {
answer : "#{value_one}" + 50
}
Any help is appreciated, thanks
I did not find out how to (or whether it was possible to) do this using Morphline's inbuilt commands. however, it is possible to do so within the java{} command, which allows you to write plain java code in-line in the Morphlines config.

Is there a Way to get the BuiltInParameterId (Ex:BuiltInParameter.SHEET_SIZE)
from a Parameter ElementId.
I have a number extracted from an Schedule Field (-1010106)
and I want to get the BuildInParameter-id.
Currently I am doing it like this:
BIPdic = {i.value__ : i for i in BuiltInParameter.GetValues(BuiltInParameter)}
bipid= BIPdic[-1010106]
I could not find an easier way. (Its easy, but I have to built a dictionary
from all (over 3000 BuiltInParameters)).

I am not absolutely sure I know what you mean. Check out the description of the ElementId constructor taking a BuiltInParameter input argument.
You can also take a look at the built-in parameter checker BipChecker and its BipChecker GitHub repo. It iterates over all built-in parameter values and tries to retrieve a parameter value for each one.
That sounds pretty similar to what you are after with your dictionary.
I need to open a .xlsx-file (without writing to it) in python, to change some fields and get the output after the formulas in some fields were calculated; I only know the input fields, the output field and the name of the sheet.
To write some code: Here is how it would look like if I would have created the library
file = excel.open("some_file.xlsx")
sheet = file[sheet_name]
for k, v in input_fields.items():
sheet[k] = v
file.do_calculations()
print(sheet[output_field])
Is there an easy way to do this? Wich library should I use to get the result of the formulas after providing new values for some fields?
Is there a better way than using something like pyoo, maybe something that doesn't require another application (a python library is clearly better) to be installed?
I'll just thank you in advance.
I now came up with a (very ugly) solution.
I am now reading the xml within the xlsx-file, and I am now using eval and some regular expressions to find out wich fields are needed; and I have defined some functions to run the calculations.
It works, but it would be great if there were a better solution.
If the resulting library is ready, and I don't forget to do this; I'll add a link to the library (that'll be hosted on Github) to this answer to my own question.
Lets say that there is a function in my Delphi app:
MsgBox
and there is a string which has MsgBox in it.
I know what most of you are going to say is that its possible, but I think it is possible because I opened the compiled exe(compiled using delphi XE2) using a Resource Editor, and that resource editor was built for Delphi. In that, I could see most of the code I wrote, as I wrote it. So since the variables names, function names etc aren't changed during compile, there should a way to execute the functions from a string, but how? Any help will be appreciated.
EDIT:
What I want to do is to create a simple interpreter/scripting engine. And this is how its supposed to work:
There are two files, scr.txt and arg.txt
scr.txt contains:
msg_show
0
arg.txt contains:
"Message"
And now let me explain what that 0 is:
First, scr.txt's first line is function name
second line tells that at which line its arguments are in the arg.txt, i.e 0 tells that "Message" is the argument for msg_show.
I hope my question is now clear.
I want to make a simple scripting engine.
In order to execute arbitrary code stored as text, you need a compiler or an interpreter. Either you need to write one yourself, or embed one that already exists. Realistically, the latter option is your best option. There are a number available but in my view it's hard to look past dwscript.
I think I've already solved my problem! The answer is in this question's first answer.
EDIT:
But with that, as for a workaround of the problem mentioned in first comment, I have a very easy solution.
You don't need to pass all the arguments/parameters to it. Just take my example:
You have two files, as mentioned in the question. Now you need to execute the files. It is as simple as that:
read the first line of scr.txt
check if it's a function. If not, skip the line
If yes, read the next line which tells the index where it's arguments are in arg.txt
pass on the index(an integer) to the "Call" function.
Now to the function which has to be executed, it should know how many arguments it needs. i.e 2
Lets say that the function is "Sum(a,b : integer)".It needs 2 arguments
Now let the function read the two arguments from arg.txt.
And its done!
I hope it will help you all.
And I can get some rep :)
I am trying to generate a drop-down for a Jenkins job that will parse out the version numbers from the file names in a Linux directory. I have gotten it to work most of the way but I think my lack of knowledge of groovy has me at a standstill. Here is the code I have:
Arrays.asList(new File("/path/to/files").list().join(", ").findAll(/(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)/))
and my file names look like:
returns?-?1.0.0.19?.war
returns?-?1.0.0.20?.war
What I get as a return from the Jenkins script console is:
Result: [[1.0.0.19, 1.0.0.20]]
This is essentially what I want but in the Jenkins job I get one item in the drop-down that is everything inside the outer brackets.
[1.0.0.19, 1.0.0.20]
I think the second set of brackets is the issue and I have tried to remove them using Groovy's .minus() method, double escaping the brackets, with no luck. I have also tried the .split() method, with no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You do not need Arrays.asList(). Below should suffice.
new File("/opt/staples/ci-tools/workspace/archive/returns")
.list()
.join(',')
.findAll(/(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)/)
I am using a simple looping plugin so that my template looks like this:
{exp:loop_plus start="1" end="4" increment="1"}
<h3>{slide_{index}_title}</h3>
{/exp:loop_plus}
However, I am ending up with the following output:
<h3>{slide_1_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_2_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_3_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_4_title}</h3>
Is there any way I can have dynamic variable names like this? I am not looking for alternative methods for building a slider, I simply would like to know if the dynamic variable names like this is possible. Thanks!
I'm assuming that Loop Plus (http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/loop-plus) sets the {index} part, so the question is what is defining {slide_1_title}...?
Assuming you have an entry field or variable with this defined, what you have is correct, but if it's not working, it means there's a parsing order issue.
Let's assume the code you supplied is wrapped in a {exp:channel:entries} tag pair, what happens is EE will try to parse the variable first, so will see: {slide_{index}_title} which doesn't exist. The {exp:loop_plus} add-on will then parse it, converting it to {slide_1_title} (but to late as channel:entries has already tried to parse it), which is what is finally output to the template.
So what you want to ensure is that EE parses {exp:loop_plus} before {exp:channel:entries}, do this using parse="inward" tag:
{exp:loop_plus start="1" end="4" increment="1" parse="inward"}
<h3>{slide_{index}_title}</h3>
{/exp:loop_plus}
This is a global EE parameter that EE uses to control parse order - you won't find it documented under the specific add-on. By adding the parameter, it means this child tag will get parsed before it's parent.
One way you could do it is to declare a preload_replace variable in your template and use it in your custom field name.
So something like:
{preload_replace:my_var_prefix="whatever"}
And then in your loop, you could then use:
{slide_{my_var_prefix}_title}
