I am trying to make some further adjustments to an address text field. But the problem is that its made with airtable. I want to get the input of that address and use it to get some data from zillow API for the user. How can I do this? I have viewed the source HTML and I only see the airtable script.
This probably went unanswered for being too vague. I'll try to leave some pointers if anyone stumbles upon this in the future.
Are you the host of the WP page? do you have access to the Airtable base in question? Is the "frontend" viewable? Airtable's API is pretty well-documented, simple as it may be. Whatever you need, if it's from a shared view, it can be fetched with a curl request.
Other than that,if the base is public, or shared publicly, and particularly if you need this data at a steady rate or in larger quantities, you'd be better off requesting access and collecting the information with a script from the Scripting app. Since ES6, this is as trivial as doing something like
let query = await base.getTable
(cursor.activeTableId)
.selectRecordsAsync()
let payload, selectAll = query.records.map(rec => rec.name),
selectAll ?
payload = { records: JSON.stringify(selectAll) }
: console.error('something went wrong')
remoteFetchAsync(('your scraping endpoint', payload)=>
//rock'n'roll past this point
})

I would like to understand better Firebase Dynamic Links because i am very new to this subject.
What i would like to know :
FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getInitialLink() is supposed to return "only" the last dynamic link created with the "initial" url (before it was shorten) ?
Or why FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getInitialLink() doesn't take a String url as a parameter ?
FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getDynamicLink(String url) doesn't read custom parameters if the url was shorten, so how can we retrieve custom parameters from a shorten link ?
My use case is quite simple, i am trying to share an object through messages in my application, so i want to save the dynamic link in my database and be able to read it to run a query according to specific parameters.
FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getInitialLink() returns the link that opened the app and if the app was not opened by a dynamic link, then it will return null.
Future<PendingDynamicLinkData?> getInitialLink()
Attempts to retrieve the dynamic link which launched the app.
This method always returns a Future. That Future completes to null if
there is no pending dynamic link or any call to this method after the
the first attempt.
https://pub.dev/documentation/firebase_dynamic_links/latest/firebase_dynamic_links/FirebaseDynamicLinks/getInitialLink.html
FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getInitialLink() does not accept a string url as parameter because it is just meant to return the link that opened the app.
Looks like there's no straightforward answer to getting the query parameters back from a shortened link. Take a look at this discussion to see if any of the workarounds fit your use case.
I currently have an application that works with Firebase.
I repeatedly load profile pictures. However the link is quite long, it consumes a certain amount of data. To reduce this load, I would like to put the link in raw and only load the token that is added to the link.
To explain, a link looks like this: “https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/fir-development.appspot.com/o/9pGveKDGphYVNTzRE5U3KTpSdpl2?alt=media&token=f408c3be-07d2-4ec2-bad7-acafedf59708”
So I would like to put in gross: https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/fir-developpement.appspot.com/o/
In continuation: “9pGveKDGphYVNTzRE5U3KTpSdpl2” which is the UID of the user that I recover already and the or my problem this poses: “alt = media & token = f408c3be-07d2-4ec2-bad7-acafedf59708” which adds randomly for each photo .
I would like to get back only this last random piece …
Is it possible ?
Thank you
UP : 01/11 Still no solution
It's not supported to break apart and reassemble download URLs. You should be treating these strings as if their implementation details might change without warning.
I'd like to use the utilities:avatar package, but I'm having some major reservations.
The docs tell me that I should publish my user data, like this:
Meteor.publish("otherUserData", function() {
var data = Meteor.users.find({
}, {
fields : {
"services.twitter.profile_image_url_https" : true,
"services.facebook.id" : true,
"services.google.picture" : true,
"services.github.username" : true,
"services.instagram.profile_picture" : true
}
});
return data;
});
If I understand Meteor's publish/subscribe mechanism correctly, this would push these fields for the entire user database to every client! Clearly, this is not a sustainable solution. Equally clearly, however, either I am doing something wrong, or I am understanding something wrong.
Also: This unscalable solution works fine in a browser, but no avatar icons are visible when the app is deployed to a mobile device, for some reason.
Any ideas?
Separate the issue of which fields to publish from which users you want to publish data on.
Presumably you want to show avatars for other users that the current user is interacting with. You need to decide what query to use in
Meteor.users.find(query,{fields: {...}});
so that you narrow down the list from all users to just pertinent ones.
In my app I end up using reywood:publish-composite to publish the users that are related to the current user via an intermediate collection.
The unscalability of utilities:avatar seems, as far as I can tell, to be a real issue, and there isn't much to be done about it except to remove utilities:avatar and rewrite the avatar URL-fetching code by hand.
As for the avatars not appearing on mobile devices, the answer was simply that we needed to grant permission to access remote URLs in mobile-config.js, like this:
App.accessRule("http://*");
App.accessRule("https://*");
Whenever I encounter code snippets on the web, I see something like
Meteor.subscribe('posts', 'bob-smith');
The client can then display all posts of "bob-smith".
The subscription returns several documents.
What I need, in contrast, is a single-document subscription in order to show an article's body field. I would like to filter by (article) id:
Meteor.subscribe('articles', articleId);
But I got suspicious when I searched the web for similar examples: I cannot find even one single-document subscription example.
What is the reason for that? Why does nobody use single-document subscriptions?
Oh but people do!
This is not against any best practice that I know of.
For example, here is a code sample from the github repository of Telescope where you can see a publication for retrieving a single user based on his or her id.
Here is another one for retrieving a single post, and here is the subscription for it.
It is actually sane to subscribe only to the data that you need at a given moment in your app. If you are writing a single post page, you should make a single post publication/subscription for it, such as:
Meteor.publish('singleArticle', function (articleId) {
return Articles.find({_id: articleId});
});
// Then, from an iron-router route for example:
Meteor.subscribe('singleArticle', this.params.articleId);
A common pattern that uses a single document subscription is a parameterized route, ex: /posts/:_id - you'll see these in many iron:router answers here.
I'm trying to use the cfs:http-publish package at https://github.com/CollectionFS/Meteor-http-publish. While I've got the GET - /api/list functionality working, I don't know how to obtain a single document:
(GET - /api/list/:id - find one published document).
Can someone provide a curl example of this, assuming a certain collection of objections.
eg: {a:3, b:2}, {a:4, b:3}, and requiring to obtain the object with {a:3}.
Thanks.
You need to put it in the query function.
HTTP.publish({collection: myList},function( ){
return myList.find(this.query);
});
this.query contains the data you sent with your request.
curl http://localhost:3000/api/myList?a=3
I don't know enough about mongo to know if this is a potential security risk, if anyone can comment on that please do.
