NiFi: expression to test if attribute exists - apache-nifi

I need to optionally use an attribute if it exists, in an expression. I know I can use ifelse to determine this, however the attribute name is printed as a literal if it doesn't exist.
What is the correct expression to test for this?
${MyOptionalAttribute:notnull():ifElse(MyOptionalAttribute,'my default value')}

Use a UpdateAttribute processor:
MyOptionalAttribute (dynamic property): ${MyOptionalAttribute:notNull():ifElse(${MyOptionalAttribute}, "default value")}

Expression to read XML attribute value in Logic Apps

In a Logic Apps For Each, I am iterating over part of an XML document that has, in part:
<Part ref="1">
I want to read out the attribute value only. In this case, "1". I have tried:
xpath(xml(item()),'Part/#ref')
and I get
["ref=\"1\""]
With
first(xpath(xml(item()),'Part/#ref'))
I get
ref="1"
I have tried incorporating string() and value() functions to no avail. What is the proper way to read out just the value?
Try this xpath expression :
'string(//Part/#ref)'
You have to use this expression in Code View:
#xpath(xml(item()), 'string(/*[local-name()=\"Part\" and namespace-uri()=\"\"]/#*[local-name()=\"ref\" and namespace-uri()=\"\"])')

Xpath Expression evaluation on attributes with any namespace prefix

Could you please help me on this xpath expression evaluation
I am working on fetching the proxy references. In the xml file the references will get stored as:
One way of XML file will have the reference as below:
con1:service ref="MyProject/ProxyServices/service1"
xsi:type="con2:PipelineRef" xmlns:ref="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/reference"/
here in the xml file the name spaces are:
xmlns:con1="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/stages/config"
xmlns:con2="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/pipeline/config"
Another way of XML will have the reference as below.
con1:service ref="MyProject/ProxyServices/service2"
xsi:type="ref:ProxyRef" xmlns:ref="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/reference"/
here in the xml file the name spaces are:
xmlns:con1="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/stages/config"
xmlns:ref="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/reference"
I have used this xpath expression, this is not fetching the reference service values, could you please help what is wrong in it.
"//service[#type= #*[local-name() ='ProxyRef' or #type=#*[local-name() ='PipelineRef']]/#ref"
when I used like this it is working but, name space prefix is keep on changes when there are multiple references in the xml file.
"//service[#type='ref:ProxyRef'or #type='con:PipelineRef' or #type='con1:PipelineRef' or #type='con2:PipelineRef' or #type='con3:PipelineRef' ...#type='con20:PipelineRef' ]/#ref";
Now here basically the type attribute PipelineRef is keep on changing the name space prefix from con to con(n). Now I am looking for something which supports some thing like #type='*:PipelineRef' or #type='con*:PipelineRef' or the best way to fetch the service element reference attribute value.
Thanks in advance.
Try using contains() like so :
//service[contains(#type,':ProxyRef') or contains(#type,':PipelineRef')]
Another alternative would be using ends-with() function which is more precise for this purpose compared to contains() function. However, ends-with() isn't available in xpath 1.0, so there is a chance that you need to implement it yourself (feasible, but the xpath result is less intuitive for me).

XPath: nested/complex conditions

a certain element of my xml data should match EXACT ONE of the following conditions:
1.) It has a #when attribute and nothing else.
2.) It has a #when-iso attribute and nothing else.
3.) It has both a #notBefore-iso and a #notAfter-iso attribute, but neither a #when nor a #when-iso attribute.
I try to test that using schematron, but I fail at creating a matching xpath expression.
I tried
<assert test="#when or #when-iso or (not(#when) and not(#when-iso) and #notBefore-iso and #notAfter-iso)">
but that doesn't work. Obviously, the content in brackets is simply ignored. So, how can I build complex/nested conditional expressions?
An example that should work for your case :
<assert test="(#when and count(#*)=1) or (#when-iso and count(#*)=1) or (#notBefore-iso and #notAfter-iso and count(#*)=2)"/>

JMeter does not replace ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} with its value

It's a long story, but I will try make it simple:
I generated MeterMaid XML files with SugarMMM; I chose only the Accounts module:
I converted above files to JMeter format with MeterMaid (I consolidated the tests into one file and named it "filename.xml"):
ruby GenMeter.rb --inputfile=filename.xml --outputfile=filename.jmx
I did the necessary CSV setup. All the CSV file contains is the login details (usr,pwd) for testing concurrent user logins. This part works well indeed.
When I run the test, I can see that a whole bunch of ${} variables are converted into corresponding values. Sadly, ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} doesn't get resolved... here's what the GET url (from View Results Tree Listener component) looks like:
http://localhost/sugarcrm/index.php?module=${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1}&action=Popup&hide_clear_button=true&mode=MultiSelect&create=true&metadata=undefined
Note that it's not the only variable that isn't resolved. The following screenshot shows the other tests that fail, all also caused by other variables not replaced by their corresponding values:
Here's how this variable is set up (which is well before the time it's used):
Here's what Debug Sampler says:

Verify in your CSV dataset config, all variables are declared correctly (no typos, no omissions, no spaces before variable names, etc.)
I would also suggest putting a debug sampler high in your tree, as it will show you every variable and its value and can save a lot of time.
Edit:
It looks like your regex is setup incorrectly for creating multiple groups. If you look in your Debug sampler, you have SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE=Accounts but not SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1= . This implies you don't have GROUPS setup.
In looking at your regex, the line template: $0$ is saying "only give me one group", whereas it looks like you want 4. Thus, you should try template: $1$$2$$3$$4$ the first match should be _g1 the second _g2 and so on. Check out the manual for details.
make judicious use of the ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} variable throughout the script after it gets defined by the Regular Expression Extractor. Verify it exists. Use it in Controller titles, test headings, at the beginning of tests, and at the end of tests.
That will help narrow it down
This way you can follow it along in the script to make sure it exists just before the moment it is used, and find where it's breaking down. Basically print statement debugging.
I don't know about sugar CRM or metermaid but for jmeter I had a similar problem with variable that were not resolve.
Check if this variable is declared somewhere or maybe you need to write a reg ex to extract that value from the previous request.
The problem I got It was that I extracted the variable from a CSV files
the variable name was CONTRACTNO, CLIENTNO
my URL : /SomeURL/bla?eventId=contractSelected&contractNoSelected=${CONTRACTNO}&applicationID=BLa
And it wasn't working so I changed the variable name in the csv file to :
CONTRACTNO,CLIENTNO (look that I removed a space)
Jmeter tend to be very picky with space in name and variable definition.
You are expecting the following values
${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1}
but you have configured the Regular Expression Extractor reference name as
"SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE"
There two options you can get the values
You have to change the ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} into ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE}
You have to change the Regular Expression Extractor reference name as "SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE _g1" to "SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE"
After this your values will be replaced properly.
It looks like your regular expression isn't picking up a match, your default value is set to "Accounts" and in your debug output that's the value of the variable. You'll only get match groups if the regular expression matches.
The View Results Tree listener now has a RegExp tester, so you can go to the request that you're trying to extract the variable SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE from the result in the results tree and choose RegExp Tester from the dropdown where it says "Text".
You can then run your regular expression on the response data in the RegExp tester and probably find that it doesn't match and then hone your regular expression so that it matches and update it in your Regular Expression Extractor.

How do I verify an xPath expression in Selenium IDE?

How would I test for the following expression in Selenium?
not(//select[#id='ddlCountry']/#class) or
not(contains(//select[#id='ddlCountry']/#class,'invalidValue'))
true if the class attribute doesnt exist, or if it does, the attribute doesn't contain invalidValue.
I've tried using the verifyElementPresent command, but it errors out, I assume because I'm returning a boolean rather than a node.
I'm happy with an alternative to this if theres no way to do the above using xPath.
In case your XPath engine API doesnt allow expressions returning atomic values (not nodes), then you still can
Use:
//select[#id='ddlCountry'][contains(#class,'invalidValue')]
and test if an element was selected or not.
true if the class attribute doesnt
exist, or if it does, the attribute
doesn't contain invalidValue.
not(//select[#id='ddlCountry']/#class[contains(.,'invalidValue')])
