Strange issue when clicking buttons in Geb with Spock - webdriver

The issue is that I'm able to click a button, but the process that the button should execute then just hangs, and doesn't happen. When clicking the "post" button, for example, the button should turn black until the post is loaded. Instead, it turns black and then nothing else happens.
If executed manually this is never a problem, and I've never had any problems with Selenium/Java either. Also the error doesn't happen every time. Now and again it works perfectly! Really can't figure out why this is happening.
Here's the page definition and test spec:
Page definition:
static at = { title == "HomePage" }
static content = {
msgBox{ $("textarea", 0) }
postBtn{ $("a", class: "js-btn-post") }
firstPost{ $("div.msg", 2).find("p").text() }
}
Post Spec:
def "make a post"() {
given:
at HomePage
when:
msgBox.click()
and:
msgBox.value("This is a test post")
and:
postBtn.click()
then:
waitFor(10) { firstPost == "This is a test post" }
}

I think it's problem with timer/connection.Try add waitFor() to your steps.

How to use Meteor FlowRouter.reload()

I've found the FlowRouter documentation for FlowRouter.reload(), but I've been unable to find specific code examples and can't get it working.
In my app, I have a template that uses some clever javascript (Isotope) to reposition elements as the page resizes. Sometimes the user navigates away, resizes the browser window, and then returns - to a messed up page that should refresh and redraw to reposition the elements for the re-sized window.
This is my route. How would I use FlowRouter.reload() to reload/refresh just the "work" template area? Alternatively, how would I use it to reload/refresh the whole layout template or window?
FlowRouter.route( '/work', {
action: function() {
BlazeLayout.render( 'body-static', {
content: 'work',
});
},
});
In case anyone else comes here, this was solved with a great help from Hugh in the Meteor forum.
The solution did not use reload. Instead, it made use of Triggers in FlowRouter to check if the template was being reloaded, refresh it if so, and then stop once refreshed to prevent an endless loop.
Here is how it worked out.
// handle refreshing div on every load of div
let fireReload = false;
function reloadCheck(context, redirect, stop) {
if (fireReload) {
console.log('Hugh is Awesome and also reloading screen...');
FlowRouter.reload();
stop();
}
}
function routeCleanup() {
fireReload = !fireReload;
}
FlowRouter.route('/work', {
action: function() {
BlazeLayout.render( 'body-static', {
content: 'work',
});
},
triggersEnter: [reloadCheck],
triggersExit: [routeCleanup]
});

How to prevent navigating to another page in meteor iron router

I have a form page and I want to alert user if he leaves it without saving the form.
Typically I can achieve this purpose by stating a function window.onBeforeUnload.
window.onBeforeUnload = function(){return 'Please save the form before navigating';}
But it seems doesn't work in my project using Meteor and Iron Router.
Any suggestion?
This is maybe a hacky version, but it works:
isUnsaved = ->
return unless #ready()
unless confirm 'Do you really want to leave the page?'
Router.go(#url)
Router.onStop isUnsaved,
only: [
'editPost'
]
Old post, but just solved it. Here is my solution :
Router.route('/myPath', {
unload: function (e, obj) {
if(Session.get("hasChanged")){
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to navigate away ?")) {
// Go and do some action
}else{
// Redirect to itself : nothing happend
this.redirect('/myPath');
}
}
}
}

grails controller/action/id automagically turning into controller/index

My problem is that the backend server (written in grails) is automatically converting my request URL to be a different URL. Specifically, it is changing it from /UXChallengeAwards/processSelectedNotifications to /UXChallengeAwards/index.
--
In a template gsp file, I have defined a button that makes a jQuery ajax call when clicked on:
<button class="blue-link"
onclick="jQuery.ajax({type:'POST',
data:jQuery(this).parents('.multiSelectForm').serialize(),
url: '/ici/UXChallengeAwards/processSelectedNotifications/${challenge.id}',
success:function(data,textStatus){},
error:function(xhr,textStatus,errorThrown){}
})" >
The method UXChallengeAwardsController.processSelectedNotifications exists. It performs some work and then redirects to another action in the controller. In fact, this used to work. But somehow in the process of adding a second button I made a change which seems to have broken things.
When the button is now clicked, the request URL gets switched to /ici/UXChallengeAwards/index and a 404 is returned because index does not exist as an action in this controller.
I've googled, and the most common answer for when this happens is that a controller must return some results for the view. But I've seen plenty of examples of redirects in controllers, and I do not see what I am doing wrong. (I did try variants of rendering results, but with no success.)
Here is what my controller action looks like:
def processSelectedNotifications = {
def challenge
def checkboxes = params.list('selectCheckbox');
for (checkbox in checkboxes) {
// the checkbox contains the id of a ChallangeAward that should be published
ChallengeAwards challengeAwards = ChallengeAwards.get(checkbox.toInteger())
if (challengeAwards) {
// grab a challenge for use in the redirect, they are all the same
challenge=challengeAwards.challenge
publish(challengeAwards)
}
}
if (challenge) {
redirect action: 'challengeAwardsRemote', id: challenge.id
return
}
// render a failure message if we got here
render messageNS(code:"UX.ChallengeAwards.Publish.failure")
}
I would really appreciate any insights into what might be wrong, or how to go about tackling this issue. I've checked my UrlMappings, and this is the rule that should handle this controller/method request:
"/$controller/$action?/$id?"{ constraints {} }
Thank you very much!
I'm going to go ahead and answer my own question, in case it is helpful for other newbies.
It turns out that I was not getting an automatic redirect. Rather, I had an error in the button setup code, so that grails was using its default link behavior. (Which is to go to the controller that matches the view, and if no action is specified, use the index method.)
The code above was originally created using a remoteSubmit tag, but I found that the generated code did not support handling multiple forms on a single page very well. So, I copied that generated code and then tweaked it to handle the multiple forms. However, I wanted the styling to match up with what was already in place on the page, so I switched it to be a button. That's when things went awry.
Eventually, I ended up specifying an onClick function for the button, and then writing the ajax submit code in javascript. Which turned out to be much simpler.
Here is what the button specification ended up looking like:
<button type="submit" id="notifications" class="blue-link" >
<i class="fa fa-envelope-o"></i>
<g:messageNS
code="UX.DiscussionBoard.ChallengeAward.Button.notify" />
</button>
And the associated JavaScript:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var clkBtn = "";
jQuery('button[type="submit"]').click(function(evt) {
clkBtn = evt.target.id;
});
jQuery('.multiSelectForm').submit(function() {
var url = '/ici/UXChallengeAwards/processSelectedNotifications';
if (clkBtn == 'deletes') {
url ='/ici/UXChallengeAwards/processSelectedDeletes';
}
var errorTarget = jQuery(this).parents().find('.recipientMessage').val();
var requestData = jQuery(this).parents('.multiSelectForm').serialize();
var options = {
data : requestData,
type : 'POST',
url : url,
target : '#awardsTab',
error : function(data) {
jQuery('#' + errorTarget).html(data.responseText).show();
},
success : function(data) {
console.log("in success");
}
};
jQuery(this).ajaxSubmit(options);
return false;
});

Framework7 starter page "pageInit" NOT WORKING

anyone using framework7 to create mobile website? I found it was great and tried to learn it by myself, now I meet this problem, after I create my App, I want to do something on the starter page initialization, here, my starter page is index.html, and I set data-page="index", now I write this below:
$$(document).on('pageInit', function (e) {
var page = e.detail.page;
// in my browser console, no "index page" logged
if (page.name === 'index') {
console.log("index page");
});
// but I changed to any other page other than index, it works
// my browser logged "another page"
if(page.name === 'login') {
console.log('another page');
}
});
Anyone can help? Thank you so much.
I have also encountered with the same problem before.
PageInit event doesn't work for initial page, only for pages that you navigate to, it will only work for index page if you navigate to some other page and then go back to index page.
So I see two options here:
Just not use pageInit event for index page - make its initialization just once (just make sure you put this javascript after all its html is ready, or e.g. use jquery's on document ready event)
Leave index page empty initially and load it dynamically via Framework7's mainView.loadContent method, then pageInit event would work for it (that was a good option for me as I had different index page each time, and I already loaded all other pages dynamically from underscore templates)
I am facing same issue and tried all solutions in various forums.. nothing actually worked. But after lot of RnD i stumbled upon following solution ...
var $$ = Dom7;
$$(document).on('page:init', function (e) {
if(e.detail.page.name === "index"){
//do whatever.. remember "page" is now e.detail.page..
$$(e.detail.page.container).find('#latest').html("my html here..");
}
});
var me = new Framework7({material: true});
var mainview = me.addView('.view-main', {});
.... and whatever else JS here..
this works perfectly..
surprisingly you can use "me" before initializing it..
for using for first page u better use document ready event. and for reloading page event you better use Reinit event.
if jquery has used.
$(document).on('ready', function (e) {
// ... mainView.activePage.name = "index"
});
$(document).on('pageReinit', function (e) {
//... this event occur on reloading anypage.
});

I can't get my added element to activate a function

I am trying to add a link to the colorbox interface as it is created. It will eventually link to the currently displayed image file but for now I just want to get the console.log to work. It adds the link correctly (#print-one) but I can't get a function to run when the link is clicked. Any help would be much appreciated!
$(document).bind('cbox_complete', function () {
// Show close button with a delay.
$('#cboxClose').css('opacity', 1);
// Add Print Button
if ($('#print-one').length ) {
// Do Nothing
}else {
$('#cboxNext').after('Print');
}
});
$('#print-one').click(function() {
console.log('Works');
});
This is all wrapped inside the $(document).ready function. I just can't get the console log to work when the link is clicked. I have been beating my head against a wall trying to figure it out. Thanks for any help!
You need to delegate the event.
$(document).on('click', '#print-one', function(){});
It seems that the link is added just after cbox is initialized, which may not be ready when the compiler gets to the click binding function a few lines below.
Try this:
...
// Add Print Button
if ($('#print-one').length ) {
// Do Nothing
}else {
$('Print').insertAfter('#cboxNext').click(function() {
console.log('Works');
});
}
