The embedded expressions are not replaced when appended, prepended or surrounded by characters in the following simplified and very basic scenario:
* def jobId = '0001'
* def out =
"""
{
"jobId": "#(jobId)",
"outputMetadata": {
"fileName_OK": "#(jobId)",
"fileName_Fail_1": "some_text_#(jobId)",
"fileName_Fail_2": "#(jobId)-and-some-more-text",
"fileName_Fail_3": "prepend #(jobId) and append"
}
}
"""
* print out
Executing the scenario returns:
{
"jobId": "0001",
"outputMetadata": {
"fileName_OK": "0001",
"fileName_Fail_1": "some_text_#(jobId)",
"fileName_Fail_2": "#(jobId)-and-some-more-text",
"fileName_Fail_3": "prepend #(jobId) and append"
}
}
Is it a feature, a limitation, or a bug? Or, did I miss something?
This is as designed ! You can do this:
"fileName_Fail_2": "#(jobId + '-and-some-more-text')"
Any valid JS expression can be stuffed into an embedded expression, so this is not a limitation. And this works only within JSON string values or when the entire RHS is a string within quotes and keeps the parsing simple. Hope that helps !

I have the following JSON:
{
"profile": {
"ci": {
"fuzz": {
"runs": 1000
}
}
}
}
Which I know I can write in TOML like this:
[profile.ci.fuzz]
runs = 1000
The problem is that I have multiple profiles, and writing profile.NAME.fuzz for all of them is rather repetitive.
I would like to ideally write the TOML like this:
[profile.ci]
fuzz = {
runs = 1000
}
However, that didn't work. I got this syntax error:
expected a table key, found a newline at line 2 column 9
How can I define nested objects in TOML?
TOML calls inline tables the objects defined within curly braces. Newlines are allowed for strings and arrays, but not for inline tables, from the specs:
Inline tables are intended to appear on a single line. A terminating comma (also called trailing comma) is not permitted after the last key/value pair in an inline table. No newlines are allowed between the curly braces unless they are valid within a value. Even so, it is strongly discouraged to break an inline table onto multiples lines. If you find yourself gripped with this desire, it means you should be using standard tables.
Regarding your example, this works:
[profile.ci]
fuzz = { runs = 1000 }
Something like this would also be allowed:
profiles = [
{ name = "foo", runs = 100 },
{ name = "bar", runs = 200 }
]
I have a string variable in PowerShell which contains the value:
NFP|8dc3b47a-48eb-4696-abe2-48729beb63c8
I am attempting to get the beginning portion of that string into it's own variable by identifying the index of the "|" character and using a substring function to extract the first portion of the string, in this case "NFP". I am not sure how to escape the "|" so I can use it properly. It doesn't seem to recognize it at all. My latest attempt is as follows:
$PolicyManual = $Item["PolicyManual"]
write-host $PolicyManual #Displays NFP|8dc3b47a-48eb-4696-abe2-48729beb63c8
if ($PolicyManual.Contains([regex]::escape("|"))) {
$PolcyManual = $PolicyManual.Substring(0, $PolicyManual.IndexOf([regex]::escape("|")))
}
I'm sure this is simple, but I can't figure out how to make it work. Can anyone offer assistance to a PowerShell novice?
Thanks.
The problem is that .contains method doesn't know about regex and you are never entering the if condition because of this. When you do [regex]::escape("|"), the method is looking for a literal \|.
Try this instead:
$PolicyManual = "NFP|8dc3b47a-48eb-4696-abe2-48729beb63c8"
if ($PolicyManual.Contains('|')) {
$element0, $element1 = $PolicyManual.Split('|')
$element0 #=> NFP
$element1 #=> 8dc3b47a-48eb-4696-abe2-48729beb63c8
}
I'm in a file called event-list.tsx, and I'm trying to create a snippet that writes the following code:
const EventList: FC = () => {
return <div>
</div>;
};
export default EventList;
Thus far, in typescriptreact.json I've written the following snippet setting, which results in awkward-looking code (it puts out const event-list rather than const EventList
"react arrow func component": {
"prefix": "rafce",
"body": [
"const ${TM_FILENAME_BASE}: FC = () => {",
" return <div>",
" ",
" </div>;",
"};",
"",
"export default ${TM_FILENAME_BASE};",
""
]
},
I know how to remove the hyphen from the snippet:
${TM_FILENAME_BASE/-//}
I also figured out how to capitalize the first character:
${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(^.)/${1:/upcase}/}
But I can't figure out how to apply all three of the changes I want. I know the regular expression needed to capitalize every character that comes after a hyphen (a positive lookbehind), but I don't know how to apply it here. There is nothing in the documentation chapter implying the possibility to chain multiple transforms onto each other.
Try the following global regex
${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.)([^-]*)-?/${1:/upcase}${2}/g}
Find a part before a - and Upcase the first letter, repeat for the whole string
"${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(\\w+)-?/${1:/capitalize}/g}",
(\\w+)-? : You only need one capture group if you use /capitalize.
The hyphens are removed by virtue of matching them (-?) but not including them in the output.
The g flag is necessary to keep matching every (\\w+)-? instance and perform a transform for each.
And since you are reusing an earlier transform you can simplify the whole thing like this:
"react arrow func component": {
"prefix": "rafce",
"body": [
"const ${1:${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(\\w*)-?/${1:/capitalize}/g}}: FC = () => {",
" return <div>",
" ",
" </div>;",
"};",
"",
"export default $1;",
""
]
},
Note that
${1:${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(\\w*)-?/${1:/capitalize}/g}}
stores the result of that transform in variable $1 - which can simply be used later (or earlier) by itself to output the same result!
I've just started getting into vsCode snippets. They seem really handy.
Is there a way to ensure that what a user entered at a tabstop starts with a lowercase value.
Here's my test case/ sandbox :
"junk": {
"prefix": "junk",
"body": [
"original:${1:type some string here then tab}",
"lower:${1/(.*)/${1:/downcase}/}",
"upper:${1/(.*)/${1:/upcase}/}",
"capitalized:${1/(.*)/${1:/capitalize}/}",
"camel:${1/(.*)/${1:/camelcase}/}",
"pascal:${1/(.*)/${1:/pascalcase}/}",
],
"description": "junk"
}
and here's what it produces:
original:SomeValue
lower:somevalue
upper:SOMEVALUE
capitalized:SomeValue
camel:somevalue
pascal:Somevalue
"camel" is pretty close but I want to preserve the capital if the user entered a camelcase value.
I just want the first character lower no matter what.
The answer is:
${1/(.)(.*)/${1:/downcase}$2/}
Just to clarify, if you look at this commit: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/commit/3d6389bb336b8ca9b12bc1e772f7056d5c03d3ee
function _toCamelCase(value: string): string {
const match = value.match(/[a-z0-9]+/gi);
console.log(match)
if (!match) {
return value;
}
return match.map((word, index) => {
if (index === 0) {
return word.toLowerCase();
} else {
return word.charAt(0).toUpperCase()
+ word.substr(1).toLowerCase();
}
})
.join('');
}
the camelcase transform is intended for input like
some-value
some_value
some.value
I think any non [a-z0-9]/i will work as the separator between words. So your case of SomeValue is not the intended use of camelcase: according to the function above the entire SomeValue is one match (the match is case-insensitve) and then that entire word is lowercased.
This question already has an answer here:
Karate API function/keyword to substitute JSON placeholder key with argument passed
(1 answer)
Closed 1 year ago.
My temp variable at run-time's value is: ["1363097.0"]
I want to replace this below mentioned text with this temp variable.
But when I try replace command, it takes it as a String and makes the value as "["1363097.0"]"
Now, because of the API spec, this value should be ["1363097.0"] and API is not accepting the string.
I have tried Embedded expression logic of #(temp) as well but it also does the same and makes it as a String with double quotes around it.
So, how do I make it take the value straightaway and not understand it as a String and not append quotes.
* def data =
"""
{
"searchParameters": {
"filters": [
{
"name": "Organisation",
"operator": "=",
"value": <foo>
}
]
}
}
"""
* replace data.foo = temp
Already tried using set keyword for updating the value in JSON but it also makes it as a String and automatically appends quotes around it.
use set instead of replace,
* def temp = ["1363097.0"]
* set data.searchParameters.filters[0].value = temp
