i need better file attachement function. Best would be that if you upload files to FTP and have a similar name as the name of the node (containing the same word), so they appear under this node (to not have to add each file separately if you need to have more nodes below). Can you think of a solution? Alternatively, some that will not be as difficult as it always manually add it again.
Dan.
This would take a fair bit of coding. Basically you want to implement hook_cron() and run a function that loops through every file in your FTP folder. The function will look for names of files that have not already been added to any node and then decide which node to add them to.
Bear in mind there will be a delay once you upload your files until they are attached to the node until the next cron job runs.
This is not a good solution and if I could give you any advice it would be not to do it - The reason you upload files through the Drupal interface is so that they are tracked in the files table and can be re-used.
Also the way you're proposing leaves massive amounts of ambiguity as to which file will go where. Consider this:
You have two nodes, one about cars and one about motorcycle sidecars. Your code will have to be extremely complex to make the decision of which node to add to if the file you've uploaded is called 'my-favourite-sidecar.jpg'.

I am using a quite unknown bookmark manager on Android. I picked this one after trying others because it was possible to import, export, classify by folders, the design was good and it was easy to search in my bookmarks.
After importing all my bookmarks from other browsers and also from files, I started classifying all of them into folders, subfolders, etc..
I spent many days to classify them all as I wanted.
After classifying them, I tried to export them.
The problem is that the only option offered is to export them in a .html file, containing all the bookmarks but without any folder.
The .html file contains all my bookmarks but in complete desorder, and doesnt mention the folders.
In the app there was also a "backup" function, so I tried and it creates a .db file.
I opened this .db file with some SQLiteViewer app and I found written inside, among other things I dont understand, a list of all my bookmarks with a number next to each one of them, and also a list of my folders with next to them the corresponding number.
When I open the .db file, I have a choice between
-SQlite master
-android metadata
-bookmarks
-folders
-sqlite sequence
If I click on "Bookmarks", all my bookmarks are in a kind of spreadsheet with lines and columns. Next to them in another columns, for example for each bookmark related with "Kitchen recipes" it's written the number 1.
And in the "Folders" folder, next to the folder called "Recipes" its also written 1.
So I'm happy because it seems that my classification is stored in this file.
But the fact is I dont know how to extract easily all that data, and create with it a "bookmark" file importable in other bookmark app or browser ( for example .csv or .xbel or .html but with folders)
I guess I need some "script" working like this:
if the first raw in "Folders" got the number 8 next to it
Then take all the bookmarks in the "bookmarks" folder that also got an 8 written next to it, and put it inside this folder.
I'm a complete noob in coding, I dont know what is SQlite, nor anything.
So i know that maybe I am asking for too much informations at the same time.
But if some kind person could put me in the way, by explaining me if
thats possible
what would be the easiest way
if some solution already exist
if someone like me can do it and what do I have to learn if I want some day to be able to do it
Thanks
Here's pictures so you understand easier:
Sqlite
Folders
Bookmarks
I would like to access the history of what have been typed in the source panel in RStudio.
I'm interested in the way we learn and type code. Three things I would like to analyse are: i) the way a single person type code, ii) how different persons type code, iii) the way a beginner improve typing.
Grabbing the history of commands is quite satisfying as first attempt in this way but I would like to reach a finer granularity and thus access the successive changes, within a single line in a way.
So, to be clear, I'm neither looking for the history of commands or for a diff between different versions of and .R file.
What I would like to access is really the successive alterations to the source panel that are visible when you recursively press Ctrl+Z. I do not know if there is a more accurate word for what I describe, but again what I'm interested in is how bits of code are added/moved/deleted/corrected/improved in the source panel but not necessary passed to the Console and thus absent from the history of command.
This must be somewhere/somehow saved by RStudio as it is accessible by the later. This may be saved in a quite hidden/private/memory/process/... way and I have a very vague idea of how a GUI works. I do not know it if would be easily accessible, then programmaticaly analyzed, typically if we could save a file from it. Timestamps would be the cherry on top but I would be happy without.
Do you have idea how to access this history?
RStudio's source panel is essentially a view to an Ace Editor. As such you'd need to access the editor session's editSession and use getDocument or getWordRange along with the undo of the editSession's undoManager instance.
I don't think you'll be doing that from within RStudio without hacking on the RStudio code unless the RStudio Addin api is made to pass-thru editor events in the future.
It might be easier to write a session recorder as changes are made rather than try to mess with the undo history. I imagine you could write an Addin that calls a javascript to communicate over the existing RStudio port using the Ace Editor's events (ie. onChange).
As #GegznaV said, RStudio saves code history to a ".RHistory" file. It's in the "Documents" folder on my computer. It's probably the same folder if you're using Windows. If you do not know the location, you can find the file by searching.
It also allows saving RStudio history to a file manually. There is a "Save" button in the History panel. So you can also get a timestamp. You can ask different users to save their code history after they have finished writing code. It may be indirectly useful to your research.
I'm running my course in parallel for two student tracks but there are some differences in submission dates, so I'd like to mark assessments with 2 different dates and have each track get their own schedule.
Would you add another morea keyword, e.g., morea_start_date2, and then process those into a different file? a quicker idea?
Thanks
The simplest approach I can think of is (unfortunately) a hack:
In master/src/_plugins/MoreaGenerator.rb, search for "ScheduleInfoFile". You'll see the creation of an instance near the top and the definition of the class near the bottom. That code looks for the morea_start_date (and morea_end_date) labels and writes out the schedule-info.js file into the schedule/ directory.
One approach: you can create a new class called ScheduleInfoFile2 that is a copy of ScheduleInfoFile but looks for your new keywords and writes out a file called schedule-info2.js into a schedule2/ directory.
The schedule2/ directory is a copy of the schedule/ directory, but its index.html file loads the schedule-info2.js file.
That should work fine and is simple to implement, but creates a lot of duplicate code and so as a software engineer I am embarrassed to be recommending that approach. However, this use case is sufficiently rare that I haven't been motivated to generalize Morea to support N calendar pages.
Good luck and feel free to follow up if you run into problems.
I have a Plone instance which contains some structures which I need to copy to a new Plone instance (but much more which should not be copied). Those structures are document trees ("books" of Archetypes folders and documents) which use resources (e.g. images and animations, by UID) outside those trees (in a separate structure which of course contains lots of resources not needed by the ones which need to be copied).
I tried already to copy the whole data and delete the unneeded parts, but this takes very (!) long, so I'm looking for a better way.
Thus, the idea is to traverse my little forest of document trees and transfer them and the resources they need (sparsely rebuilding that separate structure) to the new Plone instance. I have full access to both of them.
Is there a suggested way to accomplish this? Or should I export all of them, including the resources structure, and delete all unneeded stuff afterwards?
I found out that each time that I make this type of migration by hand, I make mistakes that force me to do it again.
OTOH, if migration is automated, I can run it, find out what I did wrong, fix the migration, and do it all over again until I am satisfied.
In this context, to automate your migration, I advise you to look at collective.transmogrifrier.
I recommend jsonmigrator - which is a twist on collective.transmogrifier mentioned by Godefroid. See my blog on it here
You can even use it to migrate from Archetypes to Dexterity types (you just need matching fieldnames (and matching types roughly speaking).
Trying to select the resources to import will be tricky though. Perhaps you can find a way to iterate through your document trees & "touch" (in a unix sense) any resource that you are using. Then copy across only resources whose "timestamp" indicates that they have been touched.
I am new in uniVerse and I have to write a uniVerse program which will check permissions of folders,subfolders and files. for example we have a folder called A and subfolder A1 and files in A1. now have to check if their permissions are set correctly.
lets say files on subfolder A1 are supposed to be rwxrwxr-x (775) but they are rwxrwxrwx(777). then based on this I need to report to say files on folder A1 are not set correctly.
well so far a little push/ideas/references/code snapshots etc would really help.
Thanks a mill in advance for help.
I'm more of a UniData person but in UniVerse Basic it looks like you could leverage the STATUS command which returns a dynamic array that contains the UNIX permissions in numeric form (e.g. 777).
More information available in the UniVerse Basic reference manual here: http://www.rocketsoftware.com/u2/products/universe/resources/technical-manuals/universe-11.1.11-documentation/basicref-v11r1.pdf
One of the best resources for UniVerse and RetrieVe questions is this site: http://www.mannyneira.com/universe/
If your system allows it, you should look into trying to write a script that executes via Shell. You can write UniVerse scripts that duck in and out of Shell. According to the UniVerse and Linux page on that site, you should be able to access it via the SH command.
When writing a Shell program to interact with UniVerse, you're typically going to want to use uvsh to output the data and then pipe it to something else (such as col) to manipulate it. If you pass a string to the uvsh command, it will execute it - so you can pass it commands to read file data (such as from voc pointers).
Keep in mind that every time you run the SH or uvsh command, you're nesting another shell within your current one, not switching between them.
However, it sounds like the file permission information you're interested in could be handled purely on the Shell side of things...
