Why is my Watir::Table not found? - watir

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Selenium::WebDriver::Error::StaleElementReferenceError: Element is no longer valid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.

Where is my error with my join in acumatica?

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.)

How to convert a Hit into a Document with elasticsearch-dsl?

Consider the following mapping for a document in ES.
class MyDoc(elasticseach_dsl.Document):
id_info = Object(IdInfo)
class IdInfo(elasticseach_dsl.InnerDoc):
id = Keyword()
type = Keyword()
Using elasticsearch-dsl, there are 2 ways of retrieving a document (that I am interested in):
Using MyDoc.search().query().execute(), that yields Hit objects
Using MyDoc.get(), that yields a MyDoc object
Here is the issue I am experiencing:
When I retrieve the same document from ES, and that document is missing, for example, the type field, I get different behaviours:
When using search(): doc being a Hit object, accessing doc.type raises a KeyError
When using get(): doc being a MyDoc object, accessing doc.type simply returns None
To workaround this discrepancy, I would like to convert a Hit instance to a MyDoc instance, so that I can always use the doc.type syntax without any errors being raised.
How can I do that?
Alternatively, is there a way that I could access Hit instances with the same behaviour as MyDoc instances?
dict_hit = hit.to_dict()
doc = YourDocument(**dict_hit)
doc.property1 # you can access the property here
I know it is a bit awkward and annoying, it used to work with versions below 6.
I found a workaround, if you take the dictionary coming out from elasticsearch response you can then ask the document class to interpret it like the following.
query = MyDoc.search()
response = query.execute()
my_doc = MyDoc.from_es(response.hits.hits[0])
We were facing this situation. In our case, is was due to the index name in the Index subclass to configure Document indices. Our model looked more or les like this:
class MyDoc(Document):
my_field = Keyword()
class Index:
name = "my-doc-v1-*"
This way, when querying for documents in indexes that match that name (for example "my-doc-v1-2022-07"), hits are automatically instantianted as MyDoc objects.
Now we have started to generate 'v2' indices, named like "my-doc-v2--000001", and then hits were not being populated as MyDoc objects.
For that to happen, we had to change Index.name to my-doc-*. That way, documents from both 'v1' and 'v2' indices are always populated automatically by the library, since they match the Index.name expression.

Why does this Context.Sync not work?

Why does this code snippet not write the values back to Excel unless I un-comment the range.values=range.values line?
$('#run').click(function() {
invokeRun()
.catch(OfficeHelpers.logError);
});
function invokeRun() {
return Excel.run(function(context) {
var range = context.workbook.worksheets.getItem("Sheet1").getRange("A1:B3");
range.load('values');
return context.sync()
.then(function() {
range.values[1][1]=99;
console.log(JSON.stringify(range.values));
//range.values=range.values
return context.sync();
});
});
}
Array properties are special. I have added a page on my website to describe the topic: Reading and writing array properties.
Summarizing from there, the way that the proxy-object model works, whenever you set a property on an object, the Office.js runtime has a hook into the setter and getter, which is used to intercept the call and add the command to the queue.
Let's take an example of a regular property first. Per the above, whenever you set something like range.format.fill.color = "red", the setter for the color property intercepts the request and internally adds a command into the queue to set the range fill color to red (to be dispatched with the next context.sync)
On the other hand, if all you had was var color = range.format.fill.color
(after a load and a sync, of course), the getter would fire instead of the setter, and the color variable would get the range's current fill color.
Now, that was regular properties. Whenever you set an element of the array, you are effectively accessing the array value as a getter. From a runtime perspective, this line is no different from a slightly more verbose version:
var array = range.values;
array[r][c] = '-';
Because the getter for range.values returns a perfectly plain JS array object, accessing it and then setting its value does nothing to propagate it back to the original Range object.
If you want the values to get reflected back, the best thing is to get a reference to the array right after the sync (i.e., var array = range.values, just as above), then set the values on the array as needed, and then finally set it back to the object: range.values = array.
It means you could also modify the values array in place, and then assign the values property back to itself at the completion of the loop (range.values = range.values). However, this looks awkward, as if it’s a no-op, whereas in reality it is not. So personally, I prefer to retrieve the array at the beginning and assign it to its own variable, then do any necessary modifications, and finally set the full array back.
UPDATE to clarify the above:
To be very clear, the arrays returned by accessing the .values, .formulas, etc., ARE pure vanilla JS arrays. That's actually the crux of the problem: that in order for Office.js to return pure objects, it means that those pure objects can't be "spiked" with the ability to reflect changes.
For what it's worth, we actually have an upcoming feature that should be rolling out in a month or two, where we will be introducing an object.set syntax, as in:
range.set({
values: [[1, 2], [3, 4]],
format: {
fill: {
color: "purple"
}
}
}
This will make it more convenient to set multiple properties on the same object, but it might also make the array properties easier to deal with.

How do you query a CouchDB view that emits complex keys?

Given a CouchDB view that emits keys of the following format:
[ "part1", { "property": "part2" } ]
How can you find all documents with a given value for part1?
If part2 was a simple string rather than an object startkey=["part1"]&endkey=["part1",{}] would work. The CouchDB docs state the following:
The query startkey=["foo"]&endkey=["foo",{}] will match most array keys with "foo" in the first element, such as ["foo","bar"] and ["foo",["bar","baz"]]. However it will not match ["foo",{"an":"object"}]
Unfortunately, the documentation doesn't offer any suggestion on how to deal with such keys.
The second element of your endkey value needs to be an object that collates after any possible value of the second element of your key. Objects are compared by property-by-property (for example, {"a":1} < {"a":2} < {"b":1}) so the best way to do this is to set the first property name in your endkey to a very large value:
startkey=["part1"]&endkey=["part1", { "\uFFF0": false }]
The property name of \uFFF0 should collate after any other property names in the second key element, and even works when the second element is an empty object or has more than one property.

What is in the reduce function arguments in CouchDB?

I understand that the reduce function is supposed to somewhat combine the results of the map function but what exactly is passed to the reduce function?
function(keys, values){
// what's in keys?
// what's in values?
}
I tried to explore this in the Futon temporary view builder but all I got were reduce_overflow_errors. So I can't even print the keys or values arguments to try to understand what they look like.
Thanks for your help.
Edit:
My problem is the following. I'm using the temporary view builder of Futon.
I have a set of document representing text files (it's for a script I want to use to make translation of documents easier).
text_file:
id // the id of the text file is its path on the file system
I also have some documents that represent text fragments appearing in the said files, and their position in each file.
text_fragment:
id
file_id // correspond to a text_file document
position
I'd like to get for each text_file, a list of the text fragments that appear in the said file.
Update
Note on JavaScript API change: Prior to Tue, 20 May 2008 (Subversion revision r658405) the function to emit a row to the map index, was named "map". It has now been changed to "emit".
That's the reason why there is mapused instead of emitit was renamed. Sorry I corrected my code to be valid in the recent version of CouchDB.
Edit
I think what you are looking for is a has-many relationship or a join in sql db language. Here is a blog article by Christopher Lenz that describes exactly what your options are for this kind of scenario in CouchDB.
In the last part there is a technique described that you can use for the list you want.
You need a map function of the following format
function(doc) {
if (doc.type == "text_file") {
emit([doc._id, 0], doc);
} else if (doc.type == "text_fragment") {
emit([doc.file_id, 1], doc);
}
}
Now you can query the view in the following way:
my_view?startkey=["text_file_id"]&endkey;=["text_file_id", 2]
This gives you a list of the form
text_file
text_fragement_1
text_fragement_2
..
Old Answer
Directly from the CouchDB Wiki
function (key, values, rereduce) {
return sum(values);
}
Reduce functions are passed three arguments in the order key, values and rereduce
Reduce functions must handle two cases:
When rereduce is false:
key will be an array whose elements are arrays of the form [key,id], where key is a key emitted by the map function and id is that of the document from which the key was generated.
values will be an array of the values emitted for the respective elements in keys
i.e. reduce([ [key1,id1], [key2,id2], [key3,id3] ], [value1,value2,value3], false)
When rereduce is true:
key will be null
values will be an array of values returned by previous calls to the reduce function
i.e. reduce(null, [intermediate1,intermediate2,intermediate3], true)
Reduce functions should return a single value, suitable for both the value field of the final view and as a member of the values array passed to the reduce function.
