Undo/Redo for leafet routing machine - javascript

I am trying to implement simple undo/redo function for my tool which uses leaflet and leaflet routing machine.
Here is my function:
var activityBuffer = [];
var undoFlag = false;
Routing.on('routeselected', function(){
if (undoFlag) {
undoFlag = false;
}
else {
var newWaypoints = Routing.getWaypoints();
activityBuffer.push(newWaypoints);
console.log(activityBuffer);
}
});
function undoActivity(){
var lastStateIndex = activityBuffer.length - 2
if (lastStateIndex >= 0) {
var oldState = activityBuffer[lastStateIndex];
Routing.setWaypoints(oldState);
activityBuffer.splice( activityBuffer.length - 1, 1);
undoFlag = true;
console.log(activityBuffer);
}
}
It works fine if i just add more points and the routeselected event is fired, but problem is when i move my waypoints and the cordinates of same points are changed, the entry in the activityBuffer of that waypoint is also updated on its own, add another array of new waypoints is also pushed. why so?
For example:
I hope i explained my problem.
Looking for some help!

I think the problem is that Leaflet Routing Machine under some circumstances mutate (change) the existing waypoint instances in place, rather than always creating new waypoint instances. For example, when dragging a waypoint, the coordinate of the waypoint is overwritten in the same instance.
Since your activityBuffer saves the references to existing waypoints, those waypoints will also be updated when LRM updates them. Storing copies of the waypoints instead should fix your problem.
Also note that strictly, you should store the waypoints from the route that is passed to your event handler (routeselected) instead of grabbing the control's waypoints - this might be important when network latency is high, for example.

Possible to simulate select using setSelection?

I have a project where I am using the vis.js timeline module as a type of image carousel where I have a start and an end time, plot the events on the timeline, and cycle through them automatically and show the image attached to each event in another container.
I already have this working and use something similar to the following to accomplish this, except one part:
var container = document.getElementById('visualization');
var data = [1,2,3,4,5];
var timeline = new vis.Timeline(container, data);
timeline.on('select', function (properties) {
// do some cool stuff
}
var i = 0;
(function timelapseEvents(i) {
setTimeout(function(){
timeline.setSelection(data[i], {focus: true, animation:true});
if (i < data.length - 1) {
timelapseEvents(i+1);
}
}, 2000);
})(i)
The timeline.setSelection() part above works, the timeline event is selected and focused on. However, the "select" event is NOT triggered. This is verified as working as expected in the documentation (under Events > timeline.select) where it says: Not fired when the method timeline.setSelection() is executed.
So my question is, does anyone know how to use the timeline.setSelection() method and actually trigger the select event? Seems unintuitive to me to invoke the timeline.setSelection()method and not actually trigger the select event.
Spent a few hours on this and came up short. I ended up just taking the code I had in my timeline.on('select', function (properties) { block and turning it into a function and calling it after the timeline.setSelection() call.
Basically, I didn't fix the issue but worked around it. Will keep an eye on this in case anyone actually is able to figure out how to add the select() event to the setSelection() method.

Here API clustering error: "addLayer is not defined"

I am try to use clastering in my aplication but I am get a error addLayer is not defined".
I have no Idea how to resolve this issue.
I just copy and paste this sample function from Here API samples api clusters
And I'm passing lat and lng, to the function but addLayer is undefined.
I have the map object, but the addLayer is undefined.
function startClustering(map, data) {
// First we need to create an array of DataPoint objects,
// for the ClusterProvider
var dataPoints = data.map(function(item) {
return new H.clustering.DataPoint(item.latitude, item.longitude);
});
// Create a clustering provider with custom options for clusterizing the input
var clusteredDataProvider = new H.clustering.Provider(dataPoints, {
clusteringOptions: {
// Maximum radius of the neighbourhood
eps: 32,
// minimum weight of points required to form a cluster
minWeight: 2
}
});
// Create a layer tha will consume objects from our clustering provider
var clusteringLayer = new H.map.layer.ObjectLayer(clusteredDataProvider);
// To make objects from clustering provder visible,
// we need to add our layer to the map
map.addLayer(clusteringLayer);
}
And I'm passing lat and lng, to the function but addLayer is undefined.
I have the map object, bust does not exist addLayer.
I'm embed the script
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://js.api.here.com/v3/3.0/mapsjs-clustering.js"></script>
on my index.
I don't know how to resolve this issue.
If someone knows how to resolve I'm glad to listen
EDIT: Additional code per comment request:
function addMarkerToCameraGroup(map, coordinate, html) { // add and remove markers
document.querySelector(".camera-box").addEventListener("click", function() {
if (document.getElementsByClassName("camera-marker-position")[0] === undefined) {
map.addObject(cameraMarker);
self.startClustering(map, coordinate);
} else {
map.removeAll();
}
});
}
You asked this question a second time as: "Try to create a cluster unsing a sample but addLayer got undefinied" which doesn't include some of the details in this question. Given the additional edit / context you made on this question however, it would seem you are adding an event listener in which map is probably out of scope or not yet defined for visibility inside the anonymous function.
document.querySelector(".camera-box").addEventListener("click", function() {
if (document.getElementsByClassName("camera-marker-position")[0] === undefined) {
map.addObject(cameraMarker);
self.startClustering(map, coordinate);
} else {
map.removeAll();
}
});
You could do a typing check to see if map has been defined when the click event occurs and/or confirm whether it is an H.map. Without seeing the full listing, it may also be the case that you have not made map a global variable but instead declared it somewhere else in the page initialization so is out of scope when the click event is fired.
You can check JavaScript callback scope for details on closures where you could provide the map to the event when declaring the function. For more general information: JavaScript HTML DOM EventListener

Javascript: Can't handle events for multiple instances

I have put together a fun API for game creation. In the code I create a prototype for Mover and then extend it with several specific prototypes (Gold, Monster, and Hero). Each one is based on a img tag with a given ID. I use type-specific information in the constructor and a single template method for each type. Most of the functional code in Mover depends on those type-specific details. I have included one example for simplicity.
I use method calls in a separate script to create and destroy instances of the Mover child types. When I create and destroy one instance at a time everything works as intended. The image updates, the sound plays and it is removed after the correct delay. If I create two or more, however, only the last one works as expected. So if I make gold, moster, hero. Only the hero will remove correctly. The other two will play the audio, but don't appear to update.
I ran into the same problem when I tried to attach a function to the onclick event for more than one instance. Only the last one worked and the others did nothing. Obviously I'm missing something about the way java handles method assignments. Any explanation you can offer would help.
Thanks,
BSD
function Mover()
{
}
Mover.prototype.InitTag = function()
{
this.HTMLtag.src=this.imageURL;
this.HTMLtag.style.position="absolute";

{

this.HTMLtag = document.getElementById("monster"+id);
this.imageURL = "monster1.jpg";
this.destroyURL = "monster2.jpg";
this.destroyAudio = monsterAudio;
}
Monster.prototype = new Mover();
Monster.prototype.RemoveTag = function()
{
var mID = this.MonsterID;

}

{
this.HTMLtag = document.getElementById("hero");

Gold.prototype = new Mover();
Gold.prototype.RemoveTag = function()
{
var mID = this.GoldID;
setTimeout(function() {field.DeleteGold(mID)}, 1000);
}
---------UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE-----------
I have at least partially fixed the problem. I have gotten it to work, but I still don't know why it didn't function as intended. I noticed that while my browser's (Chrome) developer tools could visually identify the most-recently-added Mover when it was being destroyed, it could not do so with the any other movers.
Tag of most recently added Mover can be identified in Chrome developer tools.
This suggested that Mover.HTMLtag was not actually the same as document.getElementById('mover1'). I was able to confirm this by looking at the variables in the GoldField.DeleteMover. At the line indicated mover.src has not changed, but movers[id].HTMLtag.src has been correctly updated. In the most-recently-added case they were both the same.
GoldField.prototype.DeleteMover = function(id)
{
var isHero = false;
if(this.Hero!=null && id==this.Hero.myID)
{
this.Hero = null;
isHero = true;
}
else if(this.Tower!=null && id==this.Tower.myID)
{
this.Tower = null;
}
var mover = document.getElementById("mover"+id);
if(!isHero)
{
this.tag.removeChild(mover);//<<< HERE HERE HERE HERE
delete this.movers[id];
}
}
So, I changed one line in Mover.Destroy. By finding the tag by ID and setting the src. I was able to reliable behavior. It would appear that Mover.HTMLtag is not reliable the same after the second Mover is added. Any explanation?
Mover.prototype.Destroy = function()
{
document.getElementById(this.HTMLtag.id).src=this.destroyURL;
this.HTMLtag.src=this.destroyURL;//old method
this.destroyAudio.play();
this.RemoveTag();
}
On suspicion that this might extend to other updates to this.HTMLtag I set up some basic movement of the Hero. It works great, but if you add one additional Mover of any kind it no longer moves. That narrows down the question considerably. Why would constructing a second Mover cause the prototype members to change?
So I debug your code and I found the cause of your problem. The problem was when you create a new instance of monster you storing a reference to it on the monster var. And when you delete it you don't delete / update the reference to it. So your delete function myField.DeleteMover(id) try to delete a monster already deleted. How to solve this.
// create an array to keep ref to our instances
var monsters= [];
// var monster = null;
function addMonster()
{
// monster = goldField.AddMonster();⏎
// push every monster in array
monsters.push(goldField.AddMonster());
}
function killMonster()
{
// if array.length is true
if (monsters.length) {
// call the destroy function on the last ref
monsters[monsters.length - 1].Destroy();
// remove the last ref from array using pop
monsters.pop();
}
//monster.Destroy();
}
This is working however I think all of this should be done in the objects itself. And you should not care about it here.
Another advice try to use more array methods. Avoid using delete on array index because it mess with index and count instead use splice(index, 1) same for add item in array use push instead of arbitrary index.
Anyway funny game! Good luck to finish it.
Edit, after your answer I go back an test.
To make it work I do this.
// First go inGoldField.prototype.DeleteMover and replace the ugly delete index by
this.movers.splice(id, 1);
// Then in the Mover.prototype.Destroy
// This part is a a little blurred for me.
// the current HTMLtag looks good but when I console.log like this
console.log('before', this.HTMLtag);
this.HTMLtag = document.querySelector("#mover" + this.myID);
console.log('after', this.HTMLtag);
// They are not equal look like the first is outdated
You should convert all your delete and add to splice and push methods.
This is just a quick debug I don't know why the selector is outdated.
So I check the code again and I make it work without refreshing the selector. The problem is caused by the creation of dom element with innerHTML.
First reset
this.HTMLtag.src=this.destroyURL
Then instead of
//Mover.prototype.Destroy
this.tag.innerHTML+="<img id='mover"+this.moverCount+"'>";
I create a img dom el.
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.setAttribute('id', 'mover' + this.moverCount);
this.tag.appendChild(img);
All Monsters are now deleted with the image.
I don't check for the hero but first you should update your innerHTML and reply if there is still a problem. I don't think there is any problem with some prototype.

cocos2d js 3.7 runScene issue

So i am porting my game from cocos2d c++ to js and sorted lots of js related differences already, but can not understand nor find online the solution to particular problem involving switching of the scenes with the cc.director.runScene().
So i have a complex game scene which i load like that:
cc.LoaderScene.preload(gameplay_resources, function () {
cc.director.runScene(new GameScene(level, epoch));
}, this);
Which takes stage and level params and returns the scene object which contains all the gameplay elements.
Fragment of Game scene looks like this:
var GameNode = cc.Node.extend({
levelID:null,
epoch:null,
platforms:null,
boardSize:null,
numberOfMovesLeft:null,
numberOfMovesAllowed:null,
sessionInfo:null,
ctor:function (levelID, epochID)
{
this._super();
this.levelID = levelID;
this.setEpoch(Epoch.epochForNumber(epochID));
this.platforms = [];
var self = this;
var gameplayUI = ccs.load(gameplayRes.GameplayUI, "res/");
this.addChild(gameplayUI.node);
var replayButton = gameplayUI.node.getChildByName("replay");
cc.assert(cc.sys.isObjectValid(replayButton), "Replay button not valid");
replayButton.addTouchEventListener(function (sender, type) {
if(type != ccui.Widget.TOUCH_ENDED) return;
cc.LoaderScene.preload(gameplay_resources, function () {
cc.director.runScene(new GameScene(self.levelID, self.epoch.ID));
}, this);
}, this);
return true;
}
//... Other methods
});
var GameScene = cc.Scene.extend({
ctor:function (levelID, epochID) {
this._super();
var gameNode = new GameNode(levelID, epochID);
this.addChild(gameNode);
}
});
All works fine in the end in the scene itself, but say if i change the scene by the same method to main menu, and then go to gameplay again, it seems as the 'new' game scene object has previous (supposed to be released) object`s values. So if i press 'Replay' button, it uses the old game scenes values as well.
I mean in C++ when you replace scenes, old scene`s memory is released by cocos engine. And if you go to that scene by creating new object - its new.
So my question is why is that happening i js? Maybe i do not know something about cocos2d js memory management so i need to do something extra to release old scene?
What i have ensured:
When i extend the engines classes all my added variables a null'ed and objects values are assigned in ctor's using this.value = ...; not to have static values for all objects in that way.
There are no children retaining the Gameplay scene (or it seems not to be) so i am assuming it should be released when i replace scene?
I am not using retain()/release(), and all children are added to the gamescene to be retained.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers!
So i have solved it - i was using event manager therefore sending events and game scene with its children have been registered for some of them. I was assuming that eventManager retains nodes on a 'weak' basis, but it seems you have to call removeListeners() for each registered node in its onExit method to remove listeners manually. So now it seems to be working fine.

Ajax Bing Maps version 7 - move and delete push pin - beginner's tutorial

I am currently learning about these maps. Now I would like to create a method which updates my push pin if I already have one.
a. I tried to use setLocation(newLocation) but unfortunately, when I did this, my client side code wasn't even reached (I'm thinking that the code syntax is incorrect, yet no error was given on chrome)
b. I then tried to learn how to delete it and create another one, yet I cannot find any resources from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg427610.aspx - maybe I am not searching well enough.
Can anyone provide me with some guide on how to move a push pin and how to delete one? Thank you all very very much
var loc = new Microsoft.Maps.Location(lat, lon);
var pin = new Microsoft.Maps.Pushpin(loc);
Edit: partial answer
Removing a push pin:
if (pin != null)
{
map.entities.remove(pin)
}
To move a pushpin, setLocation() is indeed the function you need to use. Are you trying to call setLocation from an event handler on the map? If that's the case, it's possible that the event handler wasn't set up properly so it is never called. However, if you already have defined a pushpin(with a variable name myPushpin) and inserted it into the map, then executing the follow code will move it:
// Move pushpin to "38.0", "-97.0"
var loc = new Microsoft.Maps.Location(38.0, -97.0);
myPushpin.setLocation(loc);
To see this in action, head over to the Ajax Bing Maps v7 interactive SDK, modify the code in blue on the lower center of the screen by putting in different coordinates, hit the Run button and see the pushpin move.
To delete a pushpin that has been added to the map, you need to remove it from the EntityCollection from which it was added to. For example, if you simply inserted the Pushpin into yourmap.entities, this is how you remove it:
var index = yourmap.entities.indexOf(myPushpin);
if (index != -1) {
yourmap.entities.removeAt(index);
}
Or you can just remove it directly without using an index:
yourmap.entities.remove(myPushpin);
UPDATE:
To delete a pushpin when the user clicks on it, you essentially have to first identify the pushpin that was clicked in the click event handler. The pushpin can be obtained from the target Property of the MouseEventArgs Object that is passed into your click handler:
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(pushpin, 'click', function (mouseEvent) {
var pushPinThatWasClicked = mouseEvent.target;
// Do whatever you want with pushPinThatWasClicked
});
The following function can remove all the pushpins from the map:
//remove all the pushpins
function deletePushpin()
{
for(var i=map.entities.getLength()-1;i>=0;i--)
{
var pushpin= map.entities.get(i);
if (pushpin instanceof Microsoft.Maps.Pushpin) {
map.entities.remove(pushpin);
}
}
}
