How to validate dynamic values in postman

I want to validate some mandatory fields in my JSON response body. Until now I am using a static way of testing by using hardcoded values something like this
json_response = JSON.parse(responseBody);
x=json_response
pm.expect(x).to.equal("abc");
But I want to rerun my test scripts so I don't want to change my tests again and again to validate the values. Could anyone please suggest how can I validate my response body.
{
"Name": "John",
"Contact number": 9826363660,
"Address": "xyz"
}
As every time I will get new values in these keys "Names" "Contact number" "Address"

pm.response.json().hasOwnProperty("Name")
You can use hasOwnProperty to check whether the field exists

Do schema validation
var schema = {
type: "object",
properties: {
"NAME": {
"type":"string"
},
"ADDRESS": {
"type":"string"
},
"Contact Number": {
"type":"number"
}
}
};
pm.response.to.have.jsonschema(schema)

How to make linked(dynamic?) select fields in oracle jet?

Im very new to JS and OJET. I'm using oracle jet to create a form. I need to create two select fields, the firts displays a client's name and the next one must change is values with the selected client's team members.
I have a JSON File with this format:
{
"clients": [
{
"id": "C01",
"name": "Client 1",
"manager": "Manager 1",
"team": [
{
"id": "C1MEM1",
"name": "member 1"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM2",
"name": "member 2"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM3",
"name": "member 3"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM4",
"name": "Member 4"
}
]
},
{
"id": "C02",
"name": "Client 2",
"manager": "Manager 2",
"team": [
{
"id": "C2MEM1",
"name": "member 1"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM2",
"name": "member 2"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM3",
"name": "member 3"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM4",
"name": "member 4"
}
]
}
I managed to create a select field with the clients name:
self.clientsListVal = ko.observableArray(['C01']);
self.clientsList = ko.observableArray();
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8000/js/json/clients.json").
then(function(data){
$.each(data["clients"],function(){
self.clientsList.push({
value: this.id,
label: this.name
});
});
});
Then I tried to get the next select fields this way, but it doesn't work :( :
self.memberList = ko.observableArray();
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8000/js/json/clients.json").
then(function(data){
$.each(data["clients"],function(){
if (this.id === self.clientsListVal ) {
$.each(this["team"], function(){
self.memberList.push({
value: this.id,
label: this.name
});
});
}
});
});
This is the HTML im using:
<div class="oj-applayout-content">
<div role="main" class="oj-hybrid-applayout-content">
<div class="oj-hybrid-padding">
<h3>Dashboard Content Area</h3>
<div>
<label for="clients">Clients</label>
<select id="clients"
data-bind="ojComponent:
{component: 'ojSelect',
options: clientsList,
value: clientsListVal,
rootAttributes: {style:'max-width:20em'}}">
</select>
<label for="select-value">Current selected value is</label>
<span id="select-value" data-bind="text: clientsListVal"></span>
<label for="members">Members</label>
<select id="members"
data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojSelect',
options: memberList,
value: memberListVal,
rootAttributes: {style:'max-width:20em'}}">
</select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Any help or hint? thank you!.
EDIT:
I think the problem is that self.clientsListVal is returning a function not the current selected value. I added console.log(self.clientsListVal) to the view model to see the current value.
If I change self.clientsListVal for a string:
if(this.id === 'C01'){}
I get the members of the client "C01".
I tried changing self.clientsListVal to $('#clients').val(), this is the id of the select input and i get undefined in the console.log.
How can I get the select field string value inside the viewmodel?

In Knockout, observables are functions -- so when you ask for the observable directly, like self.clientsListVal, you get the function definition. To get the underlying value, call the observable like a function: self.clientsListVal().
So your test becomes if (this.id === self.clientsListVal() ) {
Now you have another problem -- the observable holds an array, not an ID. The array may have a single ID element in it, but you have to reach into the array to get it.
Since you didn't show us how a value gets into clientsListVal, it's hard to say what you need to do. Is it bound to an input field where the user specifies a value? Is it populated from a data call? either way, do you ever need to have more than one ID in clientsListVal? If you only need to hold one ID at a time, change clientsListVal from an observableArray to a simple observable and your test will work.
If clientsListVal can hold multiple values, you'll need to loop over them. There are various ways to do this. You can get the underlying array by assigning the value of the observableArray to a variable: var clients = clientsListVal(). clients now holds the array, and you can use jQuery's $.each, the native Array.each, or some other way to loop over or map the array. Or you can use Knockout's built-in array utilities, like arrayForEach
if you don't want to change to a regular observable but expect the array to only have a single element, you can get at it like clientsListVal()[0] -- that's the 0th (first) element of the array. Watch out for empty arrays, tho.

Generate form automatically with config file

I am building a website to help operator of my team to generate a data source config.
Since there are many options need to be handled. I design an common solution to render the page: parse a config file(maybe, xml or json format) to html with some rules. Maybe something like below:
{
"data_type": {
"title": "Data type",
"description": "Select what type do you want.",
"fields": [{
"title": "promotion",
"description": "data from promotion center"
"type": "redio",
"default": true,
"value": "p",
"name": "dtype"
}, {
"title": "brands",
"description": "data from brands center"
"type": "redio",
"default": false,
"value": "b",
"name": "dtype"
}]
}
}
then it can be parsed as:
<div class="form-control-group">
<h3>Data type</h3>
<p>Select what type do you want.</p>
<div class="form-control-filed">
<input type="redio" name="dtype" value="p" show="dtype" checked />
<p>data from promotion center</p>
</div>
<div class="form-control-filed">
<input type="redio" name="dtype" value="b" />
<p>data from brands center</p>
</div>
</div>
This step is easily to implement. But since there are some cases like. When I click redio A, I wanna hide the checkbox B. After I unchecked Checkbox C, I wanna show up the input D. I have no idea about how to design the config file to describe the logic about different fields.
So, the key point is, I wanna parse the html by a json snippet. Then maybe there are some symbols to mark the behavior of each form field, I can use my common js to bind events to handle the show/hide, focus/blur or something else logic. Like the attribute show, I can use my common js function to detect it and bind click event to that radio button, and show up the element with name="dtype" after this radio is clicked.
I am not sure if it is a good solution and how to design an reasonable json structure.
Hope any one can provide some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

I've given up for this case. For my requirement, I use a json file to config the information of the form field with a behavior definition to describe show/hide functionality.
{
"xxx": {
"title": "Price mode",
"description": "group_description",
"fields": [{
"title": "",
"type": "select",
"name": "price_mode",
"value": [{
"text": "Store with product",
"value": 1,
"default": true,
"behaviors": {
"show": "name1|name2|name3",
"hide": ""
}
}, {
"text": "Product",
"value": 2,
"default": false,
"behaviors": {
"show": "",
"hide": "name1|name2|name3"
}
}],
"require": true,
"rule": ""
}]
}
}
Codes of server side will parse this config and render as html snippet with special attribute storing behavior definition, then use javascript functions handle these attributes and care about the behavior after doing something like click the radio button or change the value of select list.

Is there a way to use a property in JSON in another value of a property?

Not sure if the question makes sense so better to provide a code example.
{
"data": {
"whatever": [{
"id": "abcd12312",
"title": null,
"value": null,
"options": [
{
"text": "My text {{value}} one",
"value": "email#address.com"
},
{
"text": "My text [value] one",
"value": "email#address.com"
}
]
}]
}
}
So I was thinking can you do anything with Mustache or is there another way without having to write JavaScript to insert the value inside the text?
What I am trying to do is to allow the user to change the text to what ever they want but have a pointer to the value which will be dynamic based on what email address the entered on a previous page.

Populate AngularJS {{expression}} within ng-repeat using a second array

I'm completely rebuilding my website (originally hacked together with Wordpress) using Laravel and AngularJS. It's been a massive learning experience and I think I'm nearly there but for one problem.
On my site 'schemes' (or courses) are made up of 'units' which are made up of 'lessons'. Retrieving this data is fine, using Eloquent I retrieve valid JSON like this made up example...
[
{
"id": "1", //Scheme Id
"title": "Sports",
"description": "This is a Sports course!",
"units": [
{
"id": "1",
"title": "Tennis",
"lessons": [
{
"id": "6",
"title": "Serving"
},
{
"id": "7",
"title": "Hitting the ball with top-spin"
}
]
},
{
"id": "2",
"title": "Athletics",
"lessons": [
{
"id": "1",
"title": "Long Jump"
},
{
"id": "2",
"title": "Hurdling Technique"
}
]
},
{
"id": "4",
"title": "Golf",
"lessons": [
{
"id": "4",
"title": "Pitching"
},
{
"id": "5",
"title": "Putting"
}
]
}
]
}
....
]
Separately I have a simple array of completed lesson ids for a particular user like this...
[2, 6, 8, 9] ///User has completed lessons with ids of 2,6,8 and 9
In my view I'm using nested ng-repeat loops like so...
...
<div ng-controller="SchemesController">
<div ng-repeat="scheme in schemes">
<h1>{{scheme.title}}</h1>
<div ng-repeat="unit in scheme.units">
<h3>{{unit.title}}</h3>
<div ng-repeat="lesson in unit.lessons">
<div>{{lesson.title}}: {{status}}</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div><!--[end of ng-controller="SchemesController"]-->
....
SchemesController (v simple!) looks like this...
var app = angular.module('schemesApp', []);
app.controller('SchemesController', function($scope){
$scope.schemes=jsonData;
});
The problem is I have no idea how to populate the {{status}} field which I want to state simply 'Complete' or 'Incomplete. I investigated whether I could somehow add this info to my original array like this...
"lessons": [
{
"id": "6",
"title": "Serving",
"status": "Complete" //populated somehow
},
{
"id": "7",
"title": "Hitting the ball with top-spin",
}
]
but I got nowhere slowly. Is there a way to do this (I've played around with underscore.js and felt this could help?).
Or do I populate {{status}} from creating and calling a javascript function?!?
ANY help that anyone could offer would be incredible. I'm a school teacher and for some sadistic reason I find a bit of programming/web design a fun use of my spare time so I apologise if this is a stupid question. THANKS in advance!!!
btw if anyone has a better 'title' for this question then please let me know.

I'm assuming you don't need to persist the status back to the database...
This is where you're having the problem:
<div>{{lesson.title}}: {{status}}</div>
You really don't need to store the status in your data model, because it's just used for presentation purposes.
Let's say your array of completed lessons is defined like this:
$scope.completedLessons = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] // Or however you'd assign it
You need to create a function in your scope like this:
$scope.isLessonCompleted = function(lessonId) {
return $scope.completedLessons.indexOf(lessonId) > -1;
};
Then you need to change the html from above to this:
<div>{{lesson.title}}: {{isLessonCompleted(lesson.id) && 'Complete' || 'Incomplete'}}</div>

If lessons are also a model and each lesson should have a status, which isn't a column/field in your table but is something you'll add logic to determine, you could add a custom model accessor by adding the following to your models/Lesson.php:
// Append custom accessor attributes
protected $appends = ['status'];
public function getStatusAttribute() {
// Add logic here
return 'Complete';
}
This way, when you use Eloquent to retrieve your data, you'll also see a status attribute as part of the object, so you could then access it as usual $lesson->status (PHP) or lesson.status (JS).
