Is there a way to programmatically import ICS into Google Calendar? - google-calendar-api

I don't see any obvious way to import ICS files into Google Calendar from the API docs here:
http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/developers_guide_protocol.html
And I'd greatly prefer not to have to parse them myself just to send the appointments into GCal. I'm looking for a programmatic solution, not something like import plugins for Thunderbird, Outlook, etc. Third party APIs to do the ICS parsing are acceptable, in any language. Any ideas?

I have created a simple open source .net utility to do just that, available at http://gcalicsimporter.codeplex.com/.

You shouldn't have to parse an ICS just to import it into Google Calendar, it is capable of importing them directly... From the end-user's web view, it's as easy as clicking Import Calendar. From the API, I would look at the Adding New Subscriptions section.

For my iCal2GCal app I'm using the Googlecalendar Ruby Gem to both parse .ics files and then add the events inside to a Googlecalendar. It might give you some ideas on how to go about it. You can check out the full source code.

Can You Use Firebase Analytics With Expo React Native Web App?

I have been reading all through the documentation and through all of the other StackOverflow posts and am still not entirely sure if a react native expo app can have firebase analytics included or not.
I am not sure if I am supposed to use:
import * as Analytics from 'expo-firebase-analytics';
or
import analytics from "#react-native-firebase/analytics";
or if I am supposed to use googleServicesFile but I am using a web app so I don't have the file to download to add to the .pilist
I read this post and it doesn't look like it is possible: Is there any way to integrate firebase analytics into an expo react-native app without detaching?
but I also am reading through the expo documentation and it looks like it is possible: https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/sdk/firebase-analytics/#expo-client-limitations--configuration
I am either getting errors thrown or no response when I write the events. So needless to say I am super confused. Any help would be appreciated.

Bulk import tool for alfresco

I want to integrate the functionnality of Bulk import tool into my Java code Client CMIS using openCMIS library, is there any way to do so ? The goal is to do an import to alfresco automatically and without using the bulk import tool UI I found this code :
Streaming
UserTransaction txn = transactionService.getUserTransaction();
txn.begin();
AuthenticationUtil.setRunAsUser('admin');
StreamingNodeImporterFactory streamingNodeImporterFactory = (StreamingNodeImporterFactory)ctx.getBean('streamingNodeImporterFactory');
NodeImporter nodeImporter = streamingNodeImporterFactory.getNodeImporter(new File('importdirectory'));
BulkImportParameters bulkImportParameters = new BulkImportParameters();
bulkImportParameters.setTarget(folderNode);
bulkImportParameters.setReplaceExisting(true);
bulkImportParameters.setBatchSize(40);
bulkImportParameters.setNumThreads(4);
bulkImporter.bulkImport(bulkImportParameters, nodeImporter);
txn.commit();
But I didn't found any library that provides classes implemented in this code, so I can use them in my code.
If someone please can help me. Thanks a lot.
The code you are showing that invokes the Bulk File System Import Tool is running in the same process as Alfresco. It leverages the foundational Java API to make all of the calls.
You are asking about a client based on OpenCMIS. CMIS is a standard for working with all kinds of repositories. There is nothing in the spec or in the OpenCMIS implementation that knows anything about the Alfresco-specific Bulk File System Import Tool. Therefore, you cannot initiate a BFSIT import via CMIS.
To do imports, you can use the BFSIT or you can use CMIS, but combining the two does not make much sense.

How to open map in offline mode with Ionic cordaova

I have an application that shows your location with a marker using google map Api and geolocation plugin , it works when THE internet is active.
What i need is to do the same function but without internet , what are the best approaches to make that ?
Thanks
you will need a sqlite storage
you can install it through ionic plugin add cordova-sqlite-storage
Also Offline maps are a bit involved. I've not implemented one yet myself but was looking into it a while back.
I don't think you can use the native iOS or Android mapping libraries though.
Anyway, here is the basic idea:
You will need to create, download and store a tile set using a tool like MapBox Studio https://www.mapbox.com/design/49 or its predecessor TileMill
and display it in your app using a library like Leaflet18 or MapBox for JS33 (based on Leaflet).
You will need to export the tileset in a format that Leaflet can use - from what I understand there are a couple of ways of doing this, either as an .mbtiles store, which is essentially an sqlite database, or as a folder structure of .png files.
Take a look at these posts for more info for the different methods:

Using Google Maps V3 offline, e.g. with cache-manifest?
Good luck

Exporting to Swagger from Paw?

Does anyone know if there exists a code generator for Paw which will export to Swagger definitions? I couldn't find one in the list of generators and was wondering how such a popular format could be left out.
Thanks for your time.
It's coming next week :D
We have been working hard on an API conversion tool, on which the Swagger exporter will be based (it's open source on GitHub: https://github.com/luckymarmot/API-Flow, but still not officially released).
Also, there's already a Swagger importer if that can help you: https://paw.cloud/extensions/SwaggerImporter

Open popup window on calling action

I just started working on alfresco v 3.4. I have created document library action from the tutorials provided on alfresco site. Anybody tell me how to open a popup box on hitting action with some data inside it. Please guys, I am in big trouble !!!
Thanks in advance.
For Alfresco Share you have to use client side javascript. You can use Alfresco's built in functions (Alfresco.module.SimpleDialog) or just include your javascript library of choice and implement it using that.
If you'll use Alfresco's implementation (YUI) thenLook at this file:
YOUR_INTALLATION/tomcat/webapps/share/components/documentlibrary/action.js
And search for:
Alfresco.module.SimpleDialog
And don't forget to include/import your own client side files in your webscript. For this look at:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/3.0_Component_Standards
