There is Steam API endpoint, fetching APP detailed info, for example:
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080
And it can take just a few parameters:
appids - id of the app
l - language code
cc - currency code
filters - filter results to some particular part, for example filters=price_overview
Everything was working fine until I broke it )))
I started to investigate, which languages are supported and passed a few language parameters:
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080&l=en
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080&l=ru
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080&l=fr
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080&l=es
https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=578080&l=de
And at some point it just stopped switching languages and stuck on English (as default) or German, if I put any other parameter, rather than "en".
"cc" is working and I can switch currencies.
"filters" are working.
But language has stopped changing.
I even tried with different IP's, from my own PC, from my web server and some PHP sandbox services - same thing. The only difference is that sometimes it's stuck on English all the time.
What the heck?
Found an answer.
You have to write full language name, eg: l=english, l=german, l=spanish, l=russian, not just l=en, l=de, l=es or l=ru.
Don't know why it worked before.

I've edited some existing visual queries of Blog 4.0 application and when I was debugging it - it worked perfectly. But then on page it stopped working. Any attempt to use key with Data like Data["Posts"] raises System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException. App.Query["Blog Posts List"]["Posts"] returns something, but any attempt to access its fields raises another exception (don't remember the name, but it said that there's no such member inside that object).
I didn't rename queries, I didn't change application settings. I just edited logic of 2 queries. I renamed 1 wiring endpoint name across 3 queries in whole chain.
How do I debug it? How can I see what does cshtml receive from database so I don't guess and put my crystal ball away?
In general, App.Query["Name of Query"] will get you the streams of data. You usually need to convert it using AsDynamic() or AsList() to something you can work with.
This should help some; What is Data?
If you're just running into problems with field names, you probably forgot the AsList or AsDynamic, just like #accuraty-jeremy mentioned.
For real debugging, go to insights, you'll see what happens - but in your case it probably won't help, because your working with an object that's not dynamic (so doesn't support .FirstName) until you AsList/AsDynamic it.
My bad: I confused two different files - _List.cshtml and _List Paging.cshtml. So I was searching for an error in the code of wrong file.
I have little to none programming experience and I just started learning Python two weeks ago it was a pain running under windows (e.g. environment variable etc something I didn't really know what it is until two weeks ago).
I am using seleniumto try to web scrape information.
basically the url(mainly jscript) pages changes incrementally:
e.g.
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/0/1
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/0/2
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/1/1
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/1/2
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/2/1
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/2/2
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/50/1
http://sssss.proxy.sssss/sample#/detail/50/2
I want to pragmatically and systemically webscrape specific content(find by xpath) under each page and its subpage. However, I don't know how loop works (e.g. for i to xxx) in this case because every url has to be "get" by browser web driver. (does it mean the loop will initiate the browser to open every single page or will it happen within python shell like in request package)
There are method for scraping content for url that is fixed. But in my case the url does changes so I assume it can be done differently.
Please enlighten me
With thanks,

I've been using ldp.exe to guide development of some ldap code for Active Directory. I'm using the win32 API (wldap32). ldp.exe has been extremely helpful in this regard, because in the right pane of the program it shows (more or less) the actual win32 API functions and arguments used to carry out the commands. I find this particularly helpful when crafting calls for ldap_search. If I can get the search to work in ldp.exe, I can directly translate the search to ldap_search.
This was all working as expected until I tried to query a trusted, linked base domain. For example, I login and authenticate to x.net. But I am trying to query the domain y.net which is trusted from x.net.
A search query like (SAMAccountName=mylogin) with BaseDN DC=x,DC=net works in ldp.exe immediately. If I change the BaseDN to DC=y,DC=net it will not work. However, if go to Search Options in ldp.exe and check the box for 'Chase Referrals', the query will work.
Here is the problem. I don't know what checking that box does in terms of win32 API calls. When I query BaseDN DC=y,DC=net with ldap_search directly the return code is LDAP_REFERRAL.
At first, I thought fixing it would be as simple as calling ldap_set_option with LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, but that doesn't seem to be enough. I've tried settings various other referral related flags like LDAP_OPT_REFERRAL_HOP_LIMIT to larger numbers hoping that is my problem, but nothing seems to work.
I suppose that one possibility is that ldp.exe is actually following those referrals manually with additional function calls (but not actually showing it on the GUI). However, I have not found any good examples of how to do that. If anyone has an example of that, it would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, I know this query can work because I have access to C# code using DirectoryEntry and DirectorySearcher that works fine in this case.
Does anyone know what is going on in ldp.exe 'Chase Referrals' and how to translate it to the win32 API?
If you see ldp.exe console output, win32 api ldap_search also get's LDAP_REFERRAL. However ldp.exe does follow referrals with additional functions which we don't see in the console as those are not api's.
Im pretty new to struts2 and Ajax ,Actually i have a drop down menu in JSP lets say first.jsp, When user select a choice from dropdown menu,I am calling a function of Action class lets say Method1.In this method i am fetching some value from DB(lets say:a,b,c) and one value from java memory lets say d.Then I am forwarding to second.jsp and display all the parameters(a,b,c and d) in tabular format.
Now problem is that the parameter d is dynamic ,this is updating by some other application and if its change then I have to show it on JSP wihout any action.
One solution is I use in second.jsp , so after interval of 10 second again Mehod1 will call and it will fetch value(a,b,c) from db and updated value of d from java memory. and disply it to second.jsp.But in this case i am unnecessary retrieving value from db while my purpose is just to get value d from memory.This is working but this is causing my application to slower.
Can any body suggetst some other solution? or can i do it using ajax and how?
Any other advice? any help is appreciated.try to be more clear, i'm in lack of ideas in this problem, even it sounds like a classic :I have spend hours trying to play around with this but have got nowhere
Okay... What you're asking is a little fuzzy so let me rephrase:
You have a user (USER1) who opens a web page and sees some data.
You have a second user (USER2) (who may be an application) who is able set a value from time to time.
When USER2 updates that value you want USER1 to see it change in their open browser window?
If this is the case you need to understand basic ajax. For that get these demo applications working:
This example uses dojo and perhaps the S2 ajax tag lib I don't remember I prefer not to use ajax tags (as they are deprecated and prefer jquery for ajax):
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/struts-2-spring-2-jpa-ajax.html
This example here shows a very similar application but using jquery, no tag library, upgraded to Spring 3, it still needs polish:

Now that you know how to get data via ajax, look at the request with firebug. You'll see that the request is just like a typical function call, the browser keeps waiting for the data to come back.
What you do is simply not return from the action until new data is provided. This is called long polling see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_%28programming%29#Ajax_with_long_polling
If you have not written a simple chat program, using just terminal windows I recommend you do so. Two windows per client (client-send, client-receive windows) and you'll need a server program. I remember hacking one together in a few hours using _Thinking In Java 2nd Edition (Later books took out the networking section if I remember correctly). Anyways between understanding client server interaction and long polling will let you get things working. It would be fun to extend the simple terminal based chat application to a S2 ajax chat application. Would make an awesome tutorial! PS: This is just an application of the producer/consumer problem (If you understand that then I guess you don't need to do the fun exercise).
The interfaces would look very pretty if the server was managed by spring. I know there must be nice servers already written but I am not familiar with any, but would love to hear of one.
In an MVC framework, I have a model with an "identifier" field. This field can be whatever is used by the user as their unique identifier. I then use this identifier field in URLs to access the relevant resources.
/people/<identifier>/
In one such case, the user is using identifiers of the format 00/000. The quick among you will have spotted the problem straight away - how do we know which part is the identifier, and which part the action?
The obvious solution is to use URL escaping (%2F being the relevant code). However, this confuses my apache load balancing proxy as well as the application server on our demo box (running passenger). Although annoyingly this works fine on the local development servers. URLs including %2F seem to cause 404 errors from the server (not the application!).
What i'm looking for is a general approach to solving this problem, while keeping a tidy URL.
The stack which caused this problem is: Ruby 1.8.7, Merb 1.0.12, Apache load balancing to a thin cluster on production, Passenger on the demo server, and working with unproxied thin on development.
The cleanest way would be to prevent the user from entering in a forward slash character in the first place. If it is necessary to support this format, then there is no way around having to use URL escaping.
You could always use a home-grown encoding that replaces / with some other character that is never used in your identify field and then converts it back when reading it from the URL.
For example:
http://yoursite/people/00/000
becomes
http://yoursite/people/00-000
