Zend Framework - ZFDebug - Log - Log Custom Errors - zend-framework

When using ZFDebug, is it possible to add custom messages to the 'Log' tab?
So you could use something like:
$this->log('Error: Couldn't find the user');
Has anyone managed to achieve this?

I have never used ZFDebug before and wasn't aware of it. Your post piqued my interest, so I installed it and have been trying to achieve what you want to do. I will probably add it to my dev toolbox as I use ZF a lot.
You can achieve what you want by using the mark() method of ZFDebug_Controller_Plugin_Debug_Plugin_Log which takes two arguments. The first is the message you want to send and the second is a boolean which, when set to true (default is false), will send your message to the 'log' tab.
The following code worked for me:-
$debug = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()
->getPlugin('ZFDebug_Controller_Plugin_Debug');
$logger = $debug->getPlugin('log');
$logger->mark('Logging a message now', true);
Or to use your example (with the syntax error fixed :) )
$logger->mark("Error: Couldn't find the user", true);
As you can see this produced the desired output:-
Not quite as simple as you wanted, I know, but it's close and you could always wrap it in a function.

Stop huge error output from testing-library

I love testing-library, have used it a lot in a React project, and I'm trying to use it in an Angular project now - but I've always struggled with the enormous error output, including the HTML text of the render. Not only is this not usually helpful (I couldn't find an element, here's the HTML where it isn't); but it gets truncated, often before the interesting line if you're running in debug mode.
I simply added it as a library alongside the standard Angular Karma+Jasmine setup.
I'm sure you could say the components I'm testing are too large if the HTML output causes my console window to spool for ages, but I have a lot of integration tests in Protractor, and they are SO SLOW :(.
I would say the best solution would be to use the configure method and pass a custom function for getElementError which does what you want.
You can read about configuration here: https://testing-library.com/docs/dom-testing-library/api-configuration
An example of this might look like:
configure({
getElementError: (message: string, container) => {
const error = new Error(message);
error.name = 'TestingLibraryElementError';
error.stack = null;
return error;
},
});
You can then put this in any single test file or use Jest's setupFiles or setupFilesAfterEnv config options to have it run globally.
I am assuming you running jest with rtl in your project.
I personally wouldn't turn it off as it's there to help us, but everyone has a way so if you have your reasons, then fair enough.
1. If you want to disable errors for a specific test, you can mock the console.error.
it('disable error example', () => {
const errorObject = console.error; //store the state of the object
console.error = jest.fn(); // mock the object
// code
//assertion (expect)
console.error = errorObject; // assign it back so you can use it in the next test
});
2. If you want to silence it for all the test, you could use the jest --silent CLI option. Check the docs
The above might even disable the DOM printing that is done by rtl, I am not sure as I haven't tried this, but if you look at the docs I linked, it says
"Prevent tests from printing messages through the console."
Now you almost certainly have everything disabled except the DOM recommendations if the above doesn't work. On that case you might look into react-testing-library's source code and find out what is used for those print statements. Is it a console.log? is it a console.warn? When you got that, just mock it out like option 1 above.
UPDATE
After some digging, I found out that all testing-library DOM printing is built on prettyDOM();
While prettyDOM() can't be disabled you can limit the number of lines to 0, and that would just give you the error message and three dots ... below the message.
Here is an example printout, I messed around with:
TestingLibraryElementError: Unable to find an element with the text: Hello ther. This could be because the text is broken up by multiple elements. In this case, you can provide a function for your text matcher to make your matcher more flexible.
...
All you need to do is to pass in an environment variable before executing your test suite, so for example with an npm script it would look like:
DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT=0 npm run test
Here is the doc
UPDATE 2:
As per the OP's FR on github this can also be achieved without injecting in a global variable to limit the PrettyDOM line output (in case if it's used elsewhere). The getElementError config option need to be changed:
dom-testing-library/src/config.js
// called when getBy* queries fail. (message, container) => Error
getElementError(message, container) {
const error = new Error(
[message, prettyDOM(container)].filter(Boolean).join('\n\n'),
)
error.name = 'TestingLibraryElementError'
return error
},
The callstack can also be removed
You can change how the message is built by setting the DOM testing library message building function with config. In my Angular project I added this to test.js:
configure({
getElementError: (message: string, container) => {
const error = new Error(message);
error.name = 'TestingLibraryElementError';
error.stack = null;
return error;
},
});

Perl Selenium::ActionChains move_to_element not working

I am trying to click on a menu dropdown. The dropdown appears when the mouse pointer is on a menu element. The workaround can be by clicking on the menu element aslo but that sometimes is giving error due to wait time being large or small depending on the speed of site.Thus, I want to use ActionChains move_to_element for this. But it is not working no errors nothing but not working.
my $driver = Selenium::Chrome->new(binary=>"D:\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe");
my $action_chains = Selenium::ActionChains->new(driver => $driver);
$elem = $driver->find_element(".//*[\#id='navl']/li[3]/a");
$action_chains->move_to_element($elem);
$driver->pause(5000);
$driver->find_element_by_xpath(".//*[\#id='navl']/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a")->click;
$driver->pause(50000);
$driver->shutdown_binary;
I am not sure if it is of any help - there are many questions about Selenium actions and action chains and many suggestions - I struggled with a similar problem, using Python Selenium bindings though.
First of all in the code above, it could be that there is no final perform() method called after move_to_element
Secondly - and that thing was my own problem and the source of lots of bafflement on my side - i discovered that in my case, after a single perform(), i couldn't reuse the same ActionChains object - there was no error or complaint, but something was not happening right. After I created a new ActionChains object, the subsequent new chain of actions and the final perform() worked as expected.

neo4jphp: Cannot instantiate abstract class Everyman\Neo4j\Transport

maybe a simple question but for me as starter with Neo4j a hurdle. I installed the neo4jphp with composer in the same directory as my application. Vendor-Subfolder has been created and the everyman/neo4j folder below is available. For a first test I used this code snippet from the examples:
spl_autoload_register(function ($className) {
$libPath = 'vendor\\';
$classFile = $className.'.php';
$classPath = $libPath.$classFile;
if (file_exists($classPath)) {
require($classPath);
}
});
require('vendor/autoload.php');
use everyman\Neo4j\Client,
everyman\Neo4j\Transport;
$client = new Client(new Transport('localhost', 7474));
print_r($client->getServerInfo());
I always stumple upon the error
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate abstract class Everyman\Neo4j\Transport
Googling brought me to a comment from Josh Adell stating
You can't instantiate Everyman\Neo4j\Transport, since it is an abstract class. You must instantiate Everyman\Neo4j\Transport\Curl or Everyman\Neo4j\Transport\Stream depending on your needs
So I thought I just need to alter the use-statements to
use everyman\Neo4j\Client,
everyman\Neo4j\Transport\Curl;
but this doesnt work, debugging shows, that the autoloader only get "Transport.php" instead of "everyman\Neo4j\Transport\Curl.php". For "Client.php" its still working ("vendor\everyman\Neo4j\Client.php") so I am guessing that the use-statement is wrong or the code is not able to handle an additional subfolder-structure.
Using
require('phar://neo4jphp.phar');
works fine but I read that this is deprecated and should be replaced by composer / autoload.
Anyone has a hint what to change or had the same problem?
Thanks for your time,
Balael
Curl is the default transport. You only need to instantiate your own Transport object if you want to use Stream instead of Curl. If you really want to instantiate your own Curl Transport, the easiest change to your existing code is to modify the use statement to be:
use everyman\Neo4j\Client,
everyman\Neo4j\Transport\Curl as Transport;
Also, you don't need to register your own autoload function if you are using the Composer package. vendor/autoload.php does that for you.
Thanks Josh, I was trying but it seems I still stuck somewhere. I am fine with using the default CURL - so I shrinked the code down to
require('vendor/autoload.php');
use everyman\Neo4j\Client;
$client = new Everyman\Neo4j\Client('localhost', 7474);
print_r($client->getServerInfo());`
The folder structure is main (here are the files and the composer.json with the content
{
"require": {
"everyman/Neo4j": "dev-master"
}
}
and in the subfolder "vendor" we have the "autoload.php" and the subfolder everyman with the related content. When I run the file I come out with
Fatal error: Class 'Everyman\Neo4j\Client' not found
which does not happen when I have the autoloadfunction. I guess I made a mistake somewehere - can you give me a hint?
Thanks a lot, B
Hmmm... I was just trying around and it seems the Transport CLASS is not needed in the use-statement and the class instantiation. This seems to work:
require('vendor/autoload.php');
use everyman\Neo4j\Client;
$client = new Client();
print_r($client->getServerInfo());
also valid for having a dedicated server/port:
$client = new Everyman\Neo4j\Client('localhost', 7474);
If you have more input I would be happy to learn more - thanks, all input & thoughts are very appreciated.

Enterprise Library Logging tracelistener extension issue with resolving ILogFormatter

I have been sitting with a problem for quite a while now and I just can't seem to find what I'm missing.
I have written a custom trace listener component for Enterprise Library 5.0 for the Logging application block which works but the configured ILogFormatter just won't resolve and so I always end up with the basic string text when it gets handled by my component.
I saw in the enterprise library source code that they use the "Container.ResolvedIfNotNull()" method. It doesn't seem to work for me. I need it to write out a custom formatted string for my component to use. You know, not just the message but the timestamp, machinename, threadId, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Like I've mentioned on this site: http://entlib.codeplex.com/discussions/261749
When you create your CreationExpression in the TraceListener data class make sure you have a flat constructor definition. To put it in other words, don't return:
() => new MyTraceListener(new TraceListenerConfig(..., Container.ResolvedIfNotNull<ILogFormatter>(), ...));
just have it in the constructor of the MyTraceListener:
() => new MyTraceListener(..., Container.ResolvedIfNotNull<ILogFormatter>(), ...);

Configuring form_path in Catalyst::Controller::Formbuilder

Using the Catalyst::Controller::FormBuilder module to handle forms in a Catalyst application.
The documentation says you can set the form_path like this:
form_path => File::Spec->catfile( $c->config->{home}, 'root', 'forms' ),
But the call to config() in my application is at the top level of the base module. Therefore, $c is undefined. So I can't call $c->config->{home}.
What is the proper way to configure form_path please?
You should be able to access configuration values that have already been set from your application's main module using the __PACKAGE__->config hash. Example: __PACKAGE__->config->{home} or __PACKAGE__->config->{'Controller::FormBuilder'}->{form_path}.
If you're trying to set the FormBuilder configuration in your applications main module, you should be able to use the code provided in the documentation and just replace $c->config->{home} with __PACKAGE__->config->{home}. I think they might have even made a mistake by not doing it this way, but I'm not sure.
