I'm working on azure mobile services scripts. While being in insert script code of one table I want to insert a record in another table. I know it is possible using table.insert() function, but I'm not finding out a way to initialize a table object inside the script. The script doesn't recognize the Table name as a type that could be initialized. May be I'm missing some basic point. Following code might help you understand:
function insert(item, user, request) {
Misc misc = new Misc(); // 'Misc' is the table name and it is not recognized as a type.
misc.name = "John";
var tblMisc = tables.getTable('Misc');
tblMisc.insert(misc);
...}
Azure Mobile Services scripting language is Node.js which is dynamically typed, so Misc misc = new Misc(); won't work.
You could change your first line to:
var misc = {};
Or just replace everything with:
tables.getTable('Misc').insert({ name: "John" });

So, I am making a custom plugin for my server, and one of my features requires me to set an integer in a gui that shows how many 'CommonPackages' a user has. The issue that I am having is that when I am getting the String from my config (My config uses a custom file creation/management class that was given to me by a friend) it is saying that it is null in the gui, I do not get any errors in the console, please may someone help me? The item in the gui and the code for setting the item in the gui.
Item in the gui
gui creation code:
public static Inventory WhiteBackpack(Player player) {
UUID uuid = player.getUniqueId();
Inventory inv = Bukkit.createInventory(null, 27, (inventoryname));
ItemStack common = new ItemStack(Material.INK_SACK);
common.setDurability((byte) 8);
ItemMeta commonMeta = common.getItemMeta();
commonMeta.setDisplayName(Utils.chat("&fCommon Packages &8ยป &f&l" + Main.pl.getFileControl().getConfig().getString("players." + uuid + ".Packages.Common"))); //How I access my custom configs.
common.setItemMeta(commonMeta);
inv.setItem(10, common);
return inv;
}
Without the code of your method to get the config I can only say that the string in the actual file is not present.
As the Bukkit documentation states:
If the String does not exist and no default value was specified, this will return null.
So either the key just does not exist in the file or you pointed to the wrong file. The configuration should be well formated, too. (no tabs, only spaces)
I am trying to write my own $.jstree.defaults.unique.duplicate function and replace it.
I tried doing so in the following jsFiddle (line: 68):
$.jstree.defaults.unique.duplicate = function(name, counter){
return name + "_test";
};
Steps to test:
Select Devices
Create Node called Node1
Create Another node under Devices called Node1
It will use the jstree default method to replace it with the default node name vs what my function provides
http://jsfiddle.net/2mbq86at/
Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance.
In your code you specify text to use in course of creating a new node.
Take out the pre-defined text and things will start to work as desired for your function $.jstree.defaults.unique.duplicate !
self.createFileNode = function (data) {
//Below code only allows files to be created within folders.
//Structure it as per createFolder method to create files at root
var data = {
//'id': 'tempId',
//'text': 'iOS 8'
}
....
In that case of course a new node's text will be the default 'New node'.
The best is to set a unique node name right upfront on creating a new node, like "text" : "OS_" + (new Date).getTime().
Still for the case of renaming nodes and duplicates: using the unique plugin, on renaming and choosing a duplicate text the node's text will fall back to the original one. If that is not what is desired, things get more complicated as the rename_node.jstree event will not be fired in that case.
I'm trying to query QBO for, among other entities, Accounts, and am running into a couple of issues. I'm using the .Net Dev Kit v 2.1.10.0 (I used NuGet to update to the latest version) and when I use the following technique:
Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery cquery = new Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery();
IEnumerable<Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.Account> qboAccounts = cquery.ExecuteQuery<Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.Account>(context);
(i.e. just create a new AccountQuery of the appropriate type and call ExecuteQuery) I get an error. It seems that the request XML is not created properly, I just see one line in the XML file. I then looked at the online docs and tried to emulate the code there:
Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery cquery = new Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery();
cquery.CreateTime = DateTime.Now.Date.AddDays(-20);
cquery.SpecifyOperatorOption(Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.FilterProperty.CreateTime,
Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.FilterOperatorType.AFTER);
cquery.CreateTime = DateTime.Now.Date;
cquery.SpecifyOperatorOption(Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.FilterProperty.CreateTime,
Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.FilterOperatorType.BEFORE);
// Specify a Request validator
Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery cquery = new Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.AccountQuery();
IEnumerable<Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.Account> qboAccounts = cquery.ExecuteQuery<Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbo.Account>(context);
unfortunately, VS 2010 insists that AccountQuery doesn't contain a definition for SpecifyOperatorOption and there is no extension method by that name. So I'm stuck.
Any ideas how to resolve this would be appreciated.
Using Entity Framework 4.3.1 Code first, and Data Migrations.
I have written a utility to automatically generate the Migration scripts for a target database, using the MigratorScriptingDecorator.
However, sometimes when re-generating the target database from scratch, the generated script is invalid, in that it declares a variable with the same name twice.
The variable name is #var0.
This appears to happen when there are multiple migrations being applied, and when at least two result in a default constraint being dropped.
The problem occurs both when generating the script form code, and when using the Package Manager console command:
Update-Database -Script
Here are the offending snippets form the generated script:
DECLARE #var0 nvarchar(128)
SELECT #var0 = name
FROM sys.default_constraints
WHERE parent_object_id = object_id(N'SomeTableName')
and
DECLARE #var0 nvarchar(128)
SELECT #var0 = name
FROM sys.default_constraints
WHERE parent_object_id = object_id(N'SomeOtherTableName')
I would like to be able to override the point where it generates the SQL for each migration, and then add a "GO" statement so that each migration is in a separate batch, which would solve the problem.
Anyone have any ideas how to do this, or if I'm barking up the wrong tree then maybe you could suggest a better approach?
So with extensive use of ILSpy and some pointers in the answer to this question I found a way.
Details below fo those interested.
Problem
The SqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator is the class ultimately responsible for creating the SQL statements that get executed against the target database or scripted out when using the -Script switch in the Package Manager console or when using the MigratorScriptingDecorator.
Workings
Examining the Genearate method in the SqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator which is responsible for a DROP COLUMN, it looks like this:
protected virtual void Generate(DropColumnOperation dropColumnOperation)
{
RuntimeFailureMethods
.Requires(dropColumnOperation != null, null, "dropColumnOperation != null");
using (IndentedTextWriter indentedTextWriter =
SqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator.Writer())
{
string value = "#var" + this._variableCounter++;
indentedTextWriter.Write("DECLARE ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(value);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine(" nvarchar(128)");
indentedTextWriter.Write("SELECT ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(value);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine(" = name");
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine("FROM sys.default_constraints");
indentedTextWriter.Write("WHERE parent_object_id = object_id(N'");
indentedTextWriter.Write(dropColumnOperation.Table);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine("')");
indentedTextWriter.Write("AND col_name(parent_object_id,
parent_column_id) = '");
indentedTextWriter.Write(dropColumnOperation.Name);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine("';");
indentedTextWriter.Write("IF ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(value);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine(" IS NOT NULL");
indentedTextWriter.Indent++;
indentedTextWriter.Write("EXECUTE('ALTER TABLE ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(this.Name(dropColumnOperation.Table));
indentedTextWriter.Write(" DROP CONSTRAINT ' + ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(value);
indentedTextWriter.WriteLine(")");
indentedTextWriter.Indent--;
indentedTextWriter.Write("ALTER TABLE ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(this.Name(dropColumnOperation.Table));
indentedTextWriter.Write(" DROP COLUMN ");
indentedTextWriter.Write(this.Quote(dropColumnOperation.Name));
this.Statement(indentedTextWriter);
}
}
You can see it keeps track of the variables names used, but this only appears to keep track within a batch, i.e. a single migration. So if a migratin contains more than one DROP COLUM the above works fine, but if there are two migrations which result in a DROP COLUMN being generated then the _variableCounter variable is reset.
No problems are experienced when not generating a script, as each statement is executed immediately against the database (I checked using SQL Profiler).
If you generate a SQL script and want to run it as-is though you have a problem.
Solution
I created a new BatchSqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator inheriting from SqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator as follows (note you need using System.Data.Entity.Migrations.Sql;):
public class BatchSqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator : SqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator
{
protected override void Generate
(System.Data.Entity.Migrations.Model.DropColumnOperation dropColumnOperation)
{
base.Generate(dropColumnOperation);
Statement("GO");
}
}
Now to force the migrations to use your custom generator you have two options:
If you want it to be integrated into the Package Manager console, add the below line to your Configuration class:
SetSqlGenerator("System.Data.SqlClient",
new BatchSqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator());
If you're generating the script from code (like I was), add a similar line of code to where you have your Configuration assembly in code:
migrationsConfiguration.SetSqlGenerator(DataProviderInvariantName,
new BatchSqlServerMigrationSqlGenerator());
I am playing around with creating a T4 template for the "DDL Generation Template option" (model first) process in Visual Studio 2010 RC. Is it possible to retrieve the connection string that is associated with that process? If I right click on the .edmx file and choose "Generate Database from Model..." I have the option of choosing a data connection. That connection string is saved to the app.config (assuming that the option is checked). So I am wondering if it is possible to retrieve that connection string inside the T4 template. I would like to generate different information from the template based on the connection string.
More generally, is it possible to get any context information in this situation? So far, the only thing I have successfully retrieved is the .NET data provider name.
Note - I have studied the ideas provided by Craig but am only getting the name of the IDE (devenv.exe), which quite possibly means I am just doing something wrong.
In case this helps anyone else, here is a snippet I created to read the Entity Framework connection string from inside T4. You pass it the model name (which is also the name of the connection string). It finds and parses just the connection bit I need. It also throws helpful errors when it does not succeed.
To use:
A. Paste this at the top of your template if you aren't already referencing these assemblies:
<## assembly name="EnvDTE" #>
<## assembly name="System.Configuration" #>
B. Paste this ugly (but compact) code at the end of your template:
<#+
string GetEFConnectionString(string modelName)
{
string file = null, key = "provider connection string=\"";
foreach (EnvDTE.ProjectItem item in ((EnvDTE.Project)((Array)((EnvDTE.DTE)((IServiceProvider)this.Host).GetService(typeof(EnvDTE.DTE))).ActiveSolutionProjects).GetValue(0)).ProjectItems)
if (System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(item.Name, "(app|web).config", System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)) {
file = item.get_FileNames(0); break;
}
if (file == null) throw new Exception("config file could not be found");
var config = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration(new System.Configuration.ExeConfigurationFileMap() { ExeConfigFilename = file }, System.Configuration.ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
var cn = config.ConnectionStrings.ConnectionStrings[modelName];
if (cn == null) throw new Exception(modelName + " connection string could not be found");
string s = cn.ConnectionString;
int pos = s.IndexOf(key,StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
if (pos<0) throw new Exception("could not find value '" + key + "' inside connection string");
pos += key.Length;
int pos2=s.IndexOf('"',pos);
if (pos2 < 0) throw new Exception("could not find ending \" in connection string");
return s.Substring(pos,pos2-pos);
}
#>
C. Use it like such:
using(var connection = new SqlConnection(GetEFConnectionString("Database"))) {
..
}
I posted my question on one of the MSDN forums and got a response from Lingzhi Sun who pointed me in the direction of a couple of links at skysanders.net. The second of these links has a very nice example of getting to the app/web.config file and, specifically the part I wanted, the connection strings. It doesn't give any information on the specific connection string for the scenario I described in the original question, but this gets me close enough.

Well, the EF connection string will always have the same name as the model, right? The DB connection string will be embedded in the EF connection string. So I'd say you should be able to get it, at least indirectly, via the EF connection string.
Because you're not running in the assembly, have to specify the config file name.
So it would be something like:
var config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(name);
var cs = config.ConnectoinStrings[modelName];
Note that name, here, is supposed to be an EXE name. But in the IDE, your config fine is going to be called App.config rather than MyApp.dll.config. So you may have to play around with this to get it to work -- try using "App" as the EXE name!
Worst case is open it as a file and then use the config manager.
