let dairy = [];
function records(events,experience) { dairy.push({events,experience});
};
How do I save my functions , so I don’t have to write my codes after a shutdown?
Please see the getting started guide which directs you to write code in a text file with a .js file extension and then run it with node yourfilename.js and not to just type everything in the REPL.

I'm a new developer and this is my first Stack Overflow post. I've tried to stick to the format as best as possible. It's a difficult issue for me to explain, so please let me know if there's any problems with this post!
Problem
I'm working on a vscode extension specifically built for Next.js applications and running into issues on an event listener for the onDidChangeText() method. I'm looking to capture data from a JSON file that will always be located in the root of the project (this is automatically generated/updated on each refresh of the test node server for the Next.js app).
Expected Results
The extension is able to look for updates on the file using onDidChangeText(). However, the issue I'm facing is on the initial run of the application. In order for the extension to start listening for changes to the JSON file, the user has to be in the JSON file. It's supposed to work no matter what file the user has opened in vscode. After the user visits the JSON file while the extension is on, it begins to work from every file in the Next.js project folder.
Reproducing this issue is difficult because it requires an extension, npm package, and a next.js demo app, but the general steps are below. If needed, I can provide code for the rest.
1. Start debug session
2. Open Next.js application
3. Run application in node dev
4. Do not open the root JSON file
What I've Tried
Console logs show we are not entering the onDidTextDocumentChange() block until the user opens the root JSON file.
File path to the root folder is correctly generated at all times, and prior to the promise being reached.
Is this potentially an async issue? Or is the method somehow dependent on the Active Window of the user to start looking for changes to that document?
Since the file is both created and updated automatically, we've tested for both, and neither are working until the user opens the root JSON file in their vscode.
Relevant code snippet (this will not work alone but I can provide the rest of the code if necessary. ).
export async function activate(context: vscode.ExtensionContext) {
console.log('Congratulations, your extension "Next Step" is now active!');
setupExtension();
const output = vscode.window.createOutputChannel('METRICS');
// this is getting the application's root folder filepath string from its uri
if (!vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders) {
return;
}
const rootFolderPath = vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders[0].uri.path;
// const vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders: readonly vscode.WorkspaceFolder[] | undefined;
// this gives us the fileName - we join the root folder URI with the file we are looking for, which is metrics.json
const fileName = path.join(rootFolderPath, '/metrics.json');
const generateMetrics = vscode.commands.registerCommand(
'extension.generateMetrics',
async () => {
console.log('Succesfully entered registerCommand');
toggle = true;
vscode.workspace.onDidChangeTextDocument(async (e) => {
if (toggle) {
console.log('Succesfully entered onDidChangeTextDocument');
if (e.document.uri.path === fileName) {
// name the command to be called on any file in the application
// this parses our fileName to an URI - we need to do this for when we run openTextDocument below
const fileUri = vscode.Uri.parse(fileName);
// open the file at the Uri path and get the text
const metricData = await vscode.workspace
.openTextDocument(fileUri)
.then((document) => {
return document.getText();
});
}
}
});
});
}
Solved this by adding an "openTextDocument" call inside the "registerCommand" block outside of the "onDidChangeTextDocument" function. This made the extension aware of the 'metrics.json' file without it being open in the user's IDE.
Hello, I am currently developing a website for my personal needs for which I need to be able to regularly save data in a "data.json" file, which I can then retrieve for later use.
I then remembered that I had already used the "file sync" module of NodeJs before, but this time I can't manage to use it with my project as it doesn't seem to apply to my html files...
I suspect that there are other easier solutions or that I must be using NodeJs wrong in this case.
I use the sublime text editor and I work on 2 html files linked to the same script.js and style.css file
Would you have solutions to propose to me?
Thank you, cordially,
Florent
Let's say at the backend.
const htmlTxt = `
<html>
...
</html>
`
// write the file locally
fs.writeFileSync("sampleHtml.html", htmlTxt);
// read the contents of the file
console.log(fs.readFileSync("sampleHtml.html", "utf8"));
I would use the File system module.
So on your nodeJS server, you would have to add:
const fs = require('fs');
then create your json:
let jsonElement = {
aa: 'aa',
test: 123,
};
let data = JSON.stringify(jsonElement);
And save it to file
fs.writeFileSync('json_file.json', data);

I don't know how to get a javascript file to work for web-browser functionalit, when it's coded as node.js.
The code in question is from a github graphenejs-lib. I want to convert this node.js code into js:
import {Apis} from "graphenejs-ws";
var {ChainStore} = require("graphenejs-lib");
Apis.instance("wss://bitshares.openledger.info/ws", true).init_promise.then((res) => {
console.log("connected to:", res[0].network);
ChainStore.init().then(() => {
ChainStore.subscribe(updateState);
});
});
let dynamicGlobal = null;
function updateState(object) {
dynamicGlobal = ChainStore.getObject("2.1.0");
console.log("ChainStore object update\n", dynamicGlobal ? dynamicGlobal.toJS() : dynamicGlobal);
}
There is another github from the same developer, steemjs-lib, that shows both the node.js use, and the browser use in the README default page.
I don't know how to make graphenejs-lib into browser javascript, like the steemjs-lib has been made into a regular javascript working version. I contact the dev, but have yet to receive a response.
I figured other people actually know how to do what the dev did for steemjs-lib, and get the graphenejs-lib to work in a browser.
Can you help me out? Thank you.
You can use Browserify to help you with that:
Note that not all of the Node's APIs will be available in the browser.
Use browserify. https://wzrd.in/ will package it for you if you just want to use that one library. https://wzrd.in/standalone/graphenejs-lib#latest
<script src="https://wzrd.in/standalone/graphenejs-lib#latest"></script>
<script>
const {ChainStore} = graphenejsLib;
...
</script>
I have created a file as part of a script on a network drive and i am trying to make it hidden so that if the script is run again it should be able to see the file and act on the information contained within it but i am having trouble doing this. what i have so far is:
function doesRegisterExist(oFs, Date, newFolder) {
dbEcho("doesRegisterExist() triggered");
sExpectedRegisterFile = newFolder+"\\Register.txt"
if(oFs.FileExists(sExpectedRegisterFile)==false){
newFile = oFs.OpenTextFile(sExpectedRegisterFile,8,true)
newFile.close()
newReg = oFs.GetFile(sExpectedRegisterFile)
dbEcho(newReg.Attributes)
newReg.Attributes = newReg.Attributes+2
}
}
Windows Script Host does not actually produce an error here and the script runs throgh to competion. the only guides i have found online i have been attempting to translate from VBscript with limited success.
variables passed to this function are roughly declared as such
var oFs = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
var Date = "29-12-2017"
var newFolder = "\\\\File-Server\\path\\to\\folder"
I know ActiveX is a dirty word to a lot of people and i should be shot for even thinking about using it but it really is a perfect fit for what i am trying to do.
Please help.
sExpectedRegisterFolder resolves to \\\\File-Server\\path\\to\\folder\\Register which is a folder and not a file.
I get an Error: file not found when I wrap the code into a try/catch block.
I tested the code on a text file as well, and there it works.
So you're either using the wrong method if you want to set the folder to hidden.
Or you forgot to include the path to the text if you want to change a file to hidden.
( Edit: Or if Register is the name of the file, add the filetype .txt ? )
If you change GetFile to GetFolder as described in https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6tkce7xa(v=vs.84).aspx
the folder will get hidden correctly.
I want to identify few properties during my run and form a json object which I would like to write to a ".json"file and save it on the disk.
var target = UIATarget.localTarget();
var properties = new Object();
var jsonObjectToRecord = {"properties":properties}
jsonObjectToRecord.properties.name = "My App"
UIALogger.logMessage("Pretty Print TEST Log"+jsonObjectToRecord.properties.name);
var str = JSON.stringify(jsonObjectToRecord)
UIALogger.logMessage(str);
// -- CODE TO WRITE THIS JSON TO A FILE AND SAVE ON THE DISK --
I tried :
// Sample code to see if it is possible to write data
// onto some file from my automation script
function WriteToFile()
{
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
set s = fso.CreateTextFile("/Volumes/DEV/test.txt", True);
s.writeline("HI");
s.writeline("Bye");
s.writeline("-----------------------------");
s.Close();
}
AND
function WriteFile()
{
// Create an instance of StreamWriter to write text to a file.
sw = new StreamWriter("TestFile.txt");
// Add some text to the file.
sw.Write("This is the ");
sw.WriteLine("header for the file.");
sw.WriteLine("-------------------");
// Arbitrary objects can also be written to the file.
sw.Write("The date is: ");
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now);
sw.Close();
}
But still unable to read and write data to file from ui automation instruments
Possible Workaround ??
To redirect to the stdout if we can execute a terminal command from my ui automation script. So can we execute a terminal command from the script ?
Haven't Tried :
1. Assuming we can include the library that have those methods and give it a try .
Your assumptions are good, But the XCode UI Automation script is not a full JavaScript.
I don't think you can simply program a normal browser based JavaScript in the XCode UI Automation script.
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
Is not a JavaScript, it is VBScript which will only work in Microsoft Platforms and testing tools like QTP.
Scripting.FileSystemObject
Is an ActiveX object which only exists in Microsoft Windows
Only few JavaScript functions like basic Math, Array,...etc..Are provided by the Apple JavaScript library, so you are limited to use only the classes provided here https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/UIAutomationRef/
If you want to do more scripting then Try Selenium IOS Driver http://ios-driver.github.io/ios-driver/
Hey so this is something that I was looking into for a project but never fully got around to implementing so this answer will be more of a guide of what to do than step by step copy and paste.
First you're going to need to create a bash script that writes to a file. This can be as simple as
!/bin/bash
echo $1 >> ${filename.json}
Then you call this from inside your Xcode Instruments UIAutomation tool with
var target = UIATarget.localTarget();
var host = target.host();
var result = host.performTaskWithPathArgumentsTimeout("your/script/path", ["Object description in JSON format"], 5);
Then after your automation ends you can load up the file path on your computer to look at the results.
EDIT: This will enable to write to a file line by line but the actual JSON formatting will be up to you. Looking at some examples I don't think it would be difficult to implement but obviously you'll need to give it some thought at first.
