I'm building a sort of sharing system where users can paste links and share with their friends.
I want to be able to extract information like title, description and images when the user pastes a link. Would be similar as Facebook or LinkedIn.
The system has a "sharebox" where the user write a comment and pastes a link. Before save it, I need to retrieve some metadata to complete the basic information about the link.
I'm building the system with ReactJS backed by a REST API in NodeJS.
Does anyone know about a package or library to do this?. Should be done in the Frontend, or needs interaction with the backend?.
Thanks.
There are several implementations for parsing Open Graph meta tags.
You could try one of the PHP libraries:
PHP Validator and Markup Generator
PHP Consumer
OpenGraphNode in PHP
Finally http://embed.ly/ did the trick for me!.

I have gone through Bigcommerce documentation and also the tutorial videos on their official Youtube channel, there they taught about editing theme files, however my requirement is to let the users upload a file, save its path into BigCommerce database and access the file path and display it with order ID on Orders page after users have checked out.
I don't find their documentation on connecting to and accessing database.
Is there a place where articles on interacting with Bigcommerce database are available?
BigCommerce doesn't provide any native database access, but you can use BigCommerce API to access data if you needed to do so. Per reading your question, I believe you may be able to use webdav to upload your file and link it to specific pages, if that's more of what you're looking to do.
--Update--
We do currently have an idea in the community for this to be supported natively. You can comment and vote for it to show support and to raise the awareness to our engineering teams. Find it here!
I know this isn't a solution for right now, but your support would help this idea become natively supported. We do have the ability to upload files on the product level, like this.
I was wondering if there are modules, or code snippets to create a program that connects to the Microsoft store, in the background, and download an app(without pyAutoGUI). Thanks in advance.
There are no Official API's for accessing Microsoft store, A Possible solution is to use requests library or other equivalent to create a bot that can access various fields available on the website and navigate through, if you always want a certain(Same) application to be downloaded may be you can go directly to that links page and use get request for the download button as submit, this should work in theory, but again this will also keep breaking in short durations as Microsoft keeps making changes to it's website.
P.S. You might want to fool the website by adding headers to your request.
I looked thru the internet and didn't found a solution how to make this:
I want to make google extension which will use Google API or something to connect the extension to Google drive and create/update files there( i will need mostly plain text documents to store there arrays). i will need it only for personal use, so any hacks are also acceptable.
Have anyone done anything like this before? i just need the starting point.
I have made an example that is available on Github. It is available here. It transforms the some emails from GMails into PDFs stored in Drive.
You can reuse it, you simply need to copy the Drive part and not the GMail API part. The steps you'll need to follow are :
Use the Chrome identity API to retrieve an access token for the Drive API
Use the Drive API javascript client to upload your text files. The tricky part is to upload it properly, use the examples on the github project to see what the request should look like.
YUI user guides are really nice, please visit http://yuilibrary.com/yui/docs/event/ for example,I just wanna write documents like that. My question is: these documents were generated by some tools like Dockbook,Sphix or written by hand?
The YUI User Guides are generated from Mustache templates using a tool called Selleck. Selleck is a Node.js tool that generates pages from different templates based on the information provided in a component.json file and a predefined folder structure. One of the coolest features of this tool is that it has a --server mode which runs a local web server in which you can see the changes you made live by just refreshing the page.
You can check it out at http://yui.github.com/selleck/.
Google Docs have a feature "Web Clipboard" to help users easily copy and paste cross google documents. (you can refer to https://drive.googleblog.com/2010/02/a-web-clipboard-for-google-docs.html)
But I am wondering that if there's any Web API or official way to access those API.
I try to find in Google Document List APi (https://developers.google.com/google-apps/documents-list/), I can't find any related stuff.
The original goal for me is I want to copy some screenshot/images/text from my Windows OS.
And I want to paste into my GoogleDoc Document.
But it can't be done unless the screenshot/image/text is update/upload into Web Clipboard.
I keep finding any related integrated tools or extension, but I still can't find anyone.
Could someone give me some suggestions?
There is no official way to access this API, sorry.
There is clearly an API of sorts, just not documented. I'd suggest looking at extensions like this one and trying to reverse-engineer the protocol so you can see what endpoints it is calling.
But it sounds like a lot of work.
