I have a file on the web, that looks like this. I would like to update the value a 1 tag
Let's say "tempset" and change 150 for another number. How can i do this? NSURLConnection? NSMutableURLRequest? NSURLRequest? If possible keep it to iOs 4! Thanks!

You have several options:
create a "service" for this , a kind of API so you can call this service from your client in different languages include ObjectiveC
like http://myserver.com/myobject/set?tempset=1
(in real world, use post and not get for this)
of course, to do this you need to write some server part in your favorite language
provide a way to upload the file and replace it completely, a kind of "upload.php"
Which solution is the best depends on your problem: how this file is generated and maintened

So new to MarkLogic am stuck and not finding the documentation of use. I know what i need to do, just do not know how to do it.
I have a keyvalue? search on my REST server which returns ML's standard search results and XML snippet. I want to create my own custom search result which will output a title element for my XML files.
I am aware that i need to create an XSLT transformation document and upload that to the server but do not know how to target ML's search function or how to write this out.
I have basic knowledge of XSLT, if i just created something that targets each files title using xPath will this work, or does ML require use of their custom functions?
I know its a bit broad, but hopefully someone can point steer me.
Sounds like you are talking about the GET /v1/keyvalue endpoint of MarkLogic REST API. Unfortunately that does not allow you to choose a transform. You can probably use GET /v1/search with a transform param instead though, using a structured query for an element value query. The docs contain a good syntax reference on that.
Docs on creating and managing transforms can be found here:
http://docs.marklogic.com/guide/rest-dev/transforms#chapter
HTH!
You can use extract-metadata in your search options with search:search or the /v1/search/ REST API endpoint to include the title element in a metadata element or JSON property in your results:
import module namespace search = "http://marklogic.com/appservices/search"
at "/MarkLogic/appservices/search/search.xqy";
search:search(
"my query string",
<options xmlns="http://marklogic.com/appservices/search">
<extract-metadata>
<qname elem-ns="" elem-name="title"/>
</extract-metadata>
</options>)
If you need more flexibility, you specify a custom snippet implementation or a results decorator function in your search options.
Is this key-value or full text? For key-value you could use XPath. Any XPath that starts with / or // or fn:collection() or fn:doc() will search the entire database. You can search specific document(s) or collection(s) too.
For full text you'd probably want to use https://docs.marklogic.com/search:search - or possibly https://docs.marklogic.com/cts:search for really low-level control.
There's some example code using search:search from XSL at https://github.com/marklogic/RunDMC which might help. It doesn't use the REST API: it's a traditional form-submit web page. But the view/search.xsl code might give you some idea how to call the search API from XSLT.
That RunDMC code might also help you if you need to call XSL from XQuery: take a look at controller/transform.xqy.
Wondering if anyone had to do this in using ScalaCheck: Create a custom generator for spitting out large number of URLs. Actually there is a caveat to this that I want to test a service which accepts ONLY valid/working web URLs. I am thinking if I get a large number of valid external/WEB URLs in a file and somehow feed in to the custom generator, only can make this possible?
something like
val genUrls = for {
url <- "URL1" | "URL2" | "URL3"
}yield url
does this sound like a reasonable and actually more importantly doable approach?
UrlGen seems to give that, since uses a list of top urls, but cannot find the artifact in maven repo anywhere. Raised an issue.
PS
You can always add .suchThat(exists), where exists does make sure the URL exists during the test or better yet do it once, before the start of the tests, i.e. making sure all these guys exist.
I've been implementing a RESTful web service which has these operations:
List articles:
GET /articles
Delete articles (which should remove only selected articles to a trash bin):
DELETE /articles
List articles in the trash bin:
GET /trash/articles
I have to implement an operation for restoring "articles" from "/trash/articles" back to "/articles".
And here is the question. Ho do you usually do it? What url do I have to use?
I came up to the 2 ways of doing it. The first is:
DELETE /trash/articles
But it feels strange and a user can read it like "delete it permanently, don't restore".
And the second way is
PUT /trash/articles
Which is more odd and a user will be confused what this operation does.
I'm new to REST, so please advice how you do it normally. I tried to search in google but I don't know how to ask it right, so I didn't get something useful.
Another option could be to use "query params" to define a "complementary action/verb" to cover this "special condition" you have (given that this is not very easily covered by the HTTP verbs). This then could be done for example by:
PUT /trash/articles?restore=true
This would make the URI path still complaint with REST guideline (referring to a resource, and not encoding "actions" - like "restore") and would shift the "extra semantics" of what you want to do (which is a very special situation) to the "query parameter". "Query params" are very commonly used for "filtering" resources in REST, not so much for this kind of situation... but maybe this is a reasonable assumption given your requirements.
I would recommend using
PUT /restore/articles
or
PUT /restore/trash/articles
Late answer but, in my opinion, the best way is to change the resource itself.
For instance:
<article is_in_trash="true">
<title>come title</title>
<body>the article body</body>
<date>1990-01-01</date>
</article>
So, in order to remove the article from Trash, you would simple use PUT an updated version of the article, where is_in_trash="false".
I am interested in sending an MMS within a private application on the iPhone. A lot of the information I need is proprietary, and therefore I can't find it anywhere. Basically, I'm looking for the proper way to construct a CTMessage and encode it for MMS, and then sending it via one of the overloaded sendMMS functions. Thanks in advance.
For those interested: here is what I managed to dig up (&/OR piece together myself).
For every MMS, a CTMessage is allocated & initialized. addRecipient/setRecipient is called to do just that.
For each data/text section a CTMessagePart is built with its data and corresponding datatype, and then added to the CTMessage's items array. The first item in each MMS items array is always a CTMessagePart containing a SMIL-formatted layout that the recipient interprets to display the message. Each CTMessagePart following the first is in the order that it is referenced from the SMIL data.
Each (unmodifiied) iPhone has an instance of CTMessageCenter running, with the id sharedMessageCenter. Calling sharedMessageCenter's sendMMS, giving the id of the CTMessage you just created will automate the rest of the process. Essentially, the CTMessage is encoded using the CTMmsEncoder into an MMS-PDU hex string. (Not to sure of the correct name for it, hah). Anyways, sharedMessageCenter's send method will then send the (encoded) MMS to your provider's MMSC.
That pretty much sums it up, and should give anyone looking to head down that path a good place to start depending on what they're doing. I can do my best to answer any questions.
I am working on migrating posts from the RightNow infrastructure to another service called ZenDesk. I noticed that whenever users added files or even URL links, when I pull the xml data from RightNow it gives me a lot of weird codes like this:
{s:3:""url"";s:45:""/files/56f5be6c1/MUG_presso.pdf"";s:4:""name"";s:27:""MUG presso.pdf"";s:4:""size"";s:5:""2.1MB"";}
It wasn't too hard to write something that parses them and makes normal urls and links, but I was just wondering if this is something specific to the RightNow service, or if it is a tag system that is used. I tried googling for this but am getting some weird results so, thought stack overflow might have someone who has run into this one.
So, anyone know what these {s ;} tags are called and if there are any particular tools to use to read them?
Any answers appreciated!
This resembles partial PHP serialized data, as returned by the serialize() call. It looks like someone may have turned each " into "", which could prevent it from parsing properly. If it's wrapped with text like this before the {s: section, it's almost definitely PHP.
a:6:{i:1;a:10:{s:
These letters/numbers mean things like "an array with six elements follows", "a string of length 20 follows", etc.
You can use any PHP instance with unserialize() to handle the data. If those double-quotes are indeed returned by the API, you might need to replace :"" and ""; with " before parsing.
Parsing modules exist for other languages like Python. You can find more information in this answer.
