I am using Protractor-Cucumber framework with protractor 5.2.2 and cucumber 3.2. I have a requirement of posting in no.of locations. So I have written a script in a loop for it. But it randomly fails before completing the loop. So when the script ends abnormally, is there like an exception handling section that gets control before exiting.The script can be fail due to any of the reasons like web driver issue,NoSuchElementError,ElementIsNotIntractable,ElementIsNotVisible etc.So whatever be the issue I have to handle that, and if it fails, I have to do an email notification. I have tried try catch, as given below, but it does not work for me.
When(/^I login$/, function () {
try{
element(by.css(".signin")).click();
var count=post_details.length ;
for (var i=0; i<count; i++){
post();
}
}
catch(e){
console.log("failed");
}
});
How we can do this in protractor-cucumber.Thanks in advance
For the exception problem you can try this. ignoreUncaughtException
For the email part create a hooks.js file. Here you can setup the After() function, to check your scenario fails or not. Cucumber Docs.
Example:
After(function (scenario) {
if (scenario.result.status === Status.FAILED)
{
failed = true;
const attach = this.attach;
//creates a screenshot for the report
return browser.takeScreenshot().then(function(png) {
return attach(new Buffer(png, "base64"), "image/png");
});
}
});
Then you can use nodemailer to send messages. Nodemailer
In your AfterAll() function you can handle the send part.
Example:
AfterAll(function(callback){
console.log("AfterAll");
if (failed)
{
var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport(
{
host: 'host.com',
port: xx,
secure: false,
//proxy: 'http://10.10.10.6:1098',
auth: {
user: userMail,
pass: pw
}
});
var mailOptions = {
from: 'xx', // sender address (who sends)
to: xxxxxx#mail.com',
subject: 'your subject', // Subject line
text: 'Your test failed....', // plaintext body
/*attachments: [
{
filename: 'report.html',
path: htmlReport,
}]*/
};
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info)
{
if(error)
{
return console.log(error);
}
console.log('Email sent: ' + info.response);
console.log(info);
});
} else {
//do your stuff
}
setTimeout(callback, 2000);
});
I am using protractor 52.2 and cucumber 3.2.2. I am using selenium grid(selenium-server-standalone-3.14.0.jar) with the protractor and running my script in 4 browsers of 4 different nodes. I have a table of 600 rows in the DB. Initially, I am accessing data from this table and entering the data of each row through my protractor script and updating the DB column after successful entering of each row. But after entering some rows successfully, protractor script abruptly ends with error "ConnectionError: Connection lost - read ECONNRESET in protractor".And I am getting an error message in update SQL query, that "RequestError: Resource ID: 1. The request limit for the database is 60 and has been reached. See 'http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=267637' for assistance." The update query which I am using is given below(i am using azure sql). I am not getting a clear idea of how to solve this. Thanks in advance.
var Connection = require('tedious').Connection;
var Request = require('tedious').Request;
var config =
{
userName: 'xxx',
password: 'xxxxx',
server: 'xxxxxx',
options:
{
database: 'xxx' ,
encrypt: true,
rowCollectionOnRequestCompletion: true
}
}
var connection = new Connection(config);
defineSupportCode(function ({ setDefaultTimeout, Given, When, Then }) {
setDefaultTimeout(30000 * 1000);
function updatedb(LPAID){
request = new Request("UPDATE COM_Location_Post with (rowlock) SET IsPublished = 1 WHERE Id ="+LPAID,function(err,rowCount, rows) {
if(err){
console.log(err)
}
});
connection.execSql(request);
}
});
You did not use connection close in your script.
By your question its clear after max instance you face this problem.
Try closing your connection every time for each transaction.
(async () => {
const config = {
user: 'User',
password: 'iPg$',
server: 'cp-sql',
database: 'DBI',
options: {
encrypt: true // Use this if you're on Windows Azure
}
}
try {
let pool = await sql.connect(config)
var envcode, testcode;
let result1 = await pool.request()
.query(`query 1 goes here`)
// console.dir(result1)
pool.close();
sql.close();
let pool1 = await sql.connect(config)
let result2 = await pool1.request()
.query(`query 2 goes here`)
// console.dir(result2)
pool1.close();
sql.close();
resolve(result2);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err)
}
})()
I have written sample echo message bot using facebook messenger api and wit.ai actions.
My message from facebook page is received and the proper action function defined using wit api's is also getting called. However
while returning the response, i am getting followin error as -
Oops! An error occurred while forwarding the response to : Error: (#100) Param message[text] must be a UTF-8 encoded string
at fetch.then.then.json (/app/index.js:106:13)
at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:103:7)
Here is the function which is used to return the response -
const fbMessage = (id, text) => {
const body = JSON.stringify({
recipient: { id },
message: { text },
});
const qs = 'access_token=' + encodeURIComponent(FB_PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN);
return fetch('https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages?' + qs, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8'},
body
})
.then(rsp => rsp.json())
.then(json => {
if (json.error && json.error.message) {
throw new Error(json.error.message);`enter code here`
}
return json;
});
};
I have copied this function from the messenger.js file from the documentation since i am just trying the POC.
I checked the values for text and id in this function and verified using console.log statements and those are coming properly.
Can some experts help me to solve this error?
Note - I tried encoding the text using text.toString("utf8"); but it returns the encoding string as [object object] and thats the
response i get from bot. so it doesnt work.
Get the latest code from node-wit, there is a change in facebook id usage,
According to Facebook:
On Tue May 17 format of user and page ids delivered via webhooks will
change from an int to a string to better support default json encoder
in js (that trims long ints). Please make sure your app works with
string ids returned from webhooks as well as with ints.
Still you are getting issue with the api try to add if(event.message && !event.message.is_echo) condition as shown in below code.
// Message handler
app.post('/webhook', (req, res) => {
const data = req.body;
if (data.object === 'page') {
data.entry.forEach(entry => {
entry.messaging.forEach(event => {
if (event.message && !event.message.is_echo) {
const sender = event.sender.id;
const sessionId = findOrCreateSession(sender);
const {text, attachments} = event.message;
if (attachments) {
fbMessage(sender, 'Sorry I can only process text messages for now.')
.catch(console.error);
} else if (text) {
wit.runActions(
sessionId, // the user's current session
text, // the user's message
sessions[sessionId].context // the user's current session state
).then((context) => {
console.log('Waiting for next user messages');
sessions[sessionId].context = context;
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error('Oops! Got an error from Wit: ', err.stack || err);
})
}
} else {
console.log('received event', JSON.stringify(event));
}
});
});
}
res.sendStatus(200);
});

I am trying to modify the http status code of create.
POST /api/users
{
"lastname": "wqe",
"firstname": "qwe",
}
Returns 200 instead of 201
I can do something like that for errors:
var err = new Error();
err.statusCode = 406;
return callback(err, info);
But I can't find how to change status code for create.
I found the create method:
MySQL.prototype.create = function (model, data, callback) {
var fields = this.toFields(model, data);
var sql = 'INSERT INTO ' + this.tableEscaped(model);
if (fields) {
sql += ' SET ' + fields;
} else {
sql += ' VALUES ()';
}
this.query(sql, function (err, info) {
callback(err, info && info.insertId);
});
};
In your call to remoteMethod you can add a function to the response directly. This is accomplished with the rest.after option:
function responseStatus(status) {
return function(context, callback) {
var result = context.result;
if(testResult(result)) { // testResult is some method for checking that you have the correct return data
context.res.statusCode = status;
}
return callback();
}
}
MyModel.remoteMethod('create', {
description: 'Create a new object and persist it into the data source',
accepts: {arg: 'data', type: 'object', description: 'Model instance data', http: {source: 'body'}},
returns: {arg: 'data', type: mname, root: true},
http: {verb: 'post', path: '/'},
rest: {after: responseStatus(201) }
});
Note: It appears that strongloop will force a 204 "No Content" if the context.result value is falsey. To get around this I simply pass back an empty object {} with my desired status code.
You can specify a default success response code for a remote method in the http parameter.
MyModel.remoteMethod(
'create',
{
http: {path: '/', verb: 'post', status: 201},
...
}
);
For loopback verion 2 and 3+: you can also use afterRemote hook to modify the response:
module.exports = function(MyModel) {
MyModel.afterRemote('create', function(
context,
remoteMethodOutput,
next
) {
context.res.statusCode = 201;
next();
});
};
This way, you don't have to modify or touch original method or its signature. You can also customize the output along with the status code from this hook.
In Node.js, other than using child process to make CURL call, is there a way to make CURL call to remote server REST API and get the return data?
I also need to set up the request header to the remote REST call, and also query string as well in GET (or POST).
I find this one: http://blog.nodejitsu.com/jsdom-jquery-in-5-lines-on-nodejs
but it doesn't show any way to POST query string.
Look at http.request
var options = {
host: url,
port: 80,
path: '/resource?id=foo&bar=baz',
method: 'POST'
};
http.request(options, function(res) {
console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode);
console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers));
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', function (chunk) {
console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
});
}).end();
How about using Request — Simplified HTTP client.
Edit February 2020: Request has been deprecated so you probably shouldn't use it any more.
Here's a GET:
var request = require('request');
request('http://www.google.com', function (error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode === 200) {
console.log(body) // Print the google web page.
}
})
OP also wanted a POST:
request.post('http://service.com/upload', {form:{key:'value'}})
I use node-fetch because it uses the familiar (if you are a web developer) fetch() API. fetch() is the new way to make arbitrary HTTP requests from the browser.
Yes I know this is a node js question, but don't we want to reduce the number of API's developers have to memorize and understand, and improve re-useability of our javascript code? Fetch is a standard so how about we converge on that?
The other nice thing about fetch() is that it returns a javascript Promise, so you can write async code like this:
let fetch = require('node-fetch');
fetch('http://localhost', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
body: '{}'
}).then(response => {
return response.json();
}).catch(err => {console.log(err);});
Fetch superseeds XMLHTTPRequest. Here's some more info.
Look at http://isolasoftware.it/2012/05/28/call-rest-api-with-node-js/
var https = require('https');

Axios
An example (axios_example.js) using Axios in Node.js:
const axios = require('axios');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const port = process.env.PORT || 5000;
app.get('/search', function(req, res) {
let query = req.query.queryStr;
let url = `https://your.service.org?query=${query}`;
axios({
method:'get',
url,
auth: {
username: 'the_username',
password: 'the_password'
}
})
.then(function (response) {
res.send(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
});
var server = app.listen(port);
Be sure in your project directory you do:
npm init
npm install express
npm install axios
node axios_example.js
You can then test the Node.js REST API using your browser at: http://localhost:5000/search?queryStr=xxxxxxxxx
Similarly you can do post, such as:
axios({
method: 'post',
url: 'https://your.service.org/user/12345',
data: {
firstName: 'Fred',
lastName: 'Flintstone'
}
});
SuperAgent
Similarly you can use SuperAgent.
superagent.get('https://your.service.org?query=xxxx')
.end((err, response) => {
if (err) { return console.log(err); }
res.send(JSON.stringify(response.body));
});
And if you want to do basic authentication:
superagent.get('https://your.service.org?query=xxxx')
.auth('the_username', 'the_password')
.end((err, response) => {
if (err) { return console.log(err); }
res.send(JSON.stringify(response.body));
});
Ref:

I have been using restler for making webservices call, works like charm and is pretty neat.
To use latest Async/Await features
https://www.npmjs.com/package/request-promise-native
npm install --save request

var response = await rp(options);
return response;

}
}
try{
console.log(getData());
}catch(error){
console.log(error);
}
Warning: As of Feb 11th 2020, request is fully deprecated.
One another example - you need to install request module for that
var request = require('request');
function get_trustyou(trust_you_id, callback) {
var options = {
uri : 'https://api.trustyou.com/hotels/'+trust_you_id+'/seal.json',
method : 'GET'
};
var res = '';
request(options, function (error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
res = body;
}
else {
res = 'Not Found';
}
callback(res);
});
}
get_trustyou("674fa44c-1fbd-4275-aa72-a20f262372cd", function(resp){
console.log(resp);
});
const http = require('http');
const url = process.argv[2];
http.get(url, function(response) {
let finalData = "";
response.on("data", function (data) {
finalData += data.toString();
});
response.on("end", function() {
console.log(finalData.length);
console.log(finalData.toString());
});
});
I didn't find any with cURL so I wrote a wrapper around node-libcurl and can be found at https://www.npmjs.com/package/vps-rest-client.
To make a POST is like so:
var host = 'https://api.budgetvm.com/v2/dns/record';
var key = 'some___key';
var domain_id = 'some___id';
var rest = require('vps-rest-client');
var client = rest.createClient(key, {
verbose: false
});
var post = {
domain: domain_id,
record: 'test.example.net',
type: 'A',
content: '111.111.111.111'
};
client.post(host, post).then(function(resp) {
console.info(resp);
if (resp.success === true) {
// some action
}
client.close();
}).catch((err) => console.info(err));
If you have Node.js 4.4+, take a look at reqclient, it allows you to make calls and log the requests in cURL style, so you can easily check and reproduce the calls outside the application.
Returns Promise objects instead of pass simple callbacks, so you can handle the result in a more "fashion" way, chain the result easily, and handle errors in a standard way. Also removes a lot of boilerplate configurations on each request: base URL, time out, content type format, default headers, parameters and query binding in the URL, and basic cache features.
This is an example of how to initialize it, make a call and log the operation with curl style:
var RequestClient = require("reqclient").RequestClient;
var client = new RequestClient({
baseUrl:"http://baseurl.com/api/", debugRequest:true, debugResponse:true});
client.post("client/orders", {"client": 1234, "ref_id": "A987"},{"x-token": "AFF01XX"});
This will log in the console...
[Requesting client/orders]-> -X POST http://baseurl.com/api/client/orders -d '{"client": 1234, "ref_id": "A987"}' -H '{"x-token": "AFF01XX"}' -H Content-Type:application/json
And when the response is returned ...
[Response client/orders]<- Status 200 - {"orderId": 1320934}
This is an example of how to handle the response with the promise object:
client.get("reports/clients")
.then(function(response) {
// Do something with the result
}).catch(console.error); // In case of error ...
Of course, it can be installed with: npm install reqclient.
You can use curlrequest to easily set what time of request you want to do... you can even set headers in the options to "fake" a browser call.
Warning: As of Feb 11th 2020, request is fully deprecated.
If you implement with form-data, for more info (https://tanaikech.github.io/2017/07/27/multipart-post-request-using-node.js):
var fs = require('fs');
var request = require('request');
request.post({
url: 'https://slack.com/api/files.upload',
formData: {
file: fs.createReadStream('sample.zip'),
token: '### access token ###',
filetype: 'zip',
filename: 'samplefilename',
channels: 'sample',
title: 'sampletitle',
},
}, function (error, response, body) {
console.log(body);
});
I found superagent to be really useful,
it is very simple
for example
const superagent=require('superagent')
superagent
.get('google.com')
.set('Authorization','Authorization object')
.set('Accept','application/json')
Update from 2022:
from node.js version v18 on you can use the globally available fetch API (see https://nodejs.org/en/blog/announcements/v18-release-announce/)
There is also an example usage included on their announcement page:
const res = await fetch('https://nodejs.org/api/documentation.json');
if (res.ok) {
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);
}
