Obtaining / iterating through data in the laravel service container via app() - laravel

If I do dd(app()) within my app I can see data that is useful to me within the #resolved branch of the service container object that is returned to screen.
A really silly question though; what is the easiest way of iterating through that data ? I've tried things like app()->resolved which don't work.

Well $resolved array is protected for something, however you can use reflection to get it:
$rp = new \ReflectionProperty('\Illuminate\Foundation\Application', 'resolved');
$rp->setAccessible(true);
dd($rp->getValue(app()));

Store a sheet object in cache of my google app script [duplicate]

I am trying to develop a webapp using Google Apps Script to be embedded into a Google Site which simply displays the contents of a Google Sheet and filters it using some simple parameters. For the time being, at least. I may add more features later.
I got a functional app, but found that filtering could often take a while as the client sometimes had to wait up to 5 seconds for a response from the server. I decided that this was most likely due to the fact that I was loading the spreadsheet by ID using the SpreadsheetApp class every time it was called.
I decided to cache the spreadsheet values in my doGet function using the CacheService and retrieve the data from the cache each time instead.
However, for some reason this has meant that what was a 2-dimensional array is now treated as a 1-dimensional array. And, so, when displaying the data in an HTML table, I end up with a single column, with each cell being occupied by a single character.
This is how I have implemented the caching; as far as I can tell from the API reference I am not doing anything wrong:
function doGet() {
CacheService.getScriptCache().put('data', SpreadsheetApp
.openById('####')
.getActiveSheet()
.getDataRange()
.getValues());
return HtmlService
.createTemplateFromFile('index')
.evaluate()
.setSandboxMode(HtmlService.SandboxMode.IFRAME);
}
function getData() {
return CacheService.getScriptCache().get('data');
}
This is my first time developing a proper application using GAS (I have used it in Sheets before). Is there something very obvious I am missing? I didn't see any type restrictions on the CacheService reference page...
CacheService stores Strings, so objects such as your two-dimensional array will be coerced to Strings, which may not meet your needs.
Use the JSON utility to take control of the results.
myCache.put( 'tag', JSON.stringify( myObj ) );
...
var cachedObj = JSON.parse( myCache.get( 'tag' ) );
Cache expires. The put method, without an expirationInSeconds parameter expires in 10 minutes. If you need your data to stay alive for more than 10 minutes, you need to specify an expirationInSeconds, and the maximum is 6 hours. So, if you specifically do NOT need the data to expire, Cache might not be the best use.
You can use Cache for something like controlling how long a user can be logged in.
You could also try using a global variable, which some people would tell you to never use. To declare a global variable, define the variable outside of any function.

How does one read the data value from a Function outside FunctionCallbackInfo?

When I create a function like this:
v8::Function::New(<Isolate>, <C_Function>, <Data_Value>);
The Data_Value that I supply is useful for many things and I can access that when the function is called, with something like FunctionCallbackInfo->GetData().
But I have found no way to get back this data in a different scenario. Let's say I store that Function in a Persistent object, and then I would like to read which data is currently bound to it. Any ideas?
I don't think it's exposed via the API.
But there's an alternative:
manually construct a v8::FunctionTemplate
set its ->InstanceTemplate()->SetInternalFieldCount(num_fields)
get the v8::Function from the template with template->GetFunction(context),
now you should have function->InternalFieldCount() == num_fields
you can use function->SetInternalField(index, value) and function->GetInternalField(index) to store any data you want.
For complete examples, search for "SetInternalFieldCount" in V8's test-api.cc.

How to access View Template Properties for Revit and compare them in Real Time?

I am trying to list the view template’s properties so we can compare them with another old template.
For example what model elements are hidden or have overrides in a given template or which Revit links have been hidden or overridden in a given template.
View Template
(https://www.google.com/search?q=view+template+revit&rlz=1C1GGRV_enUS770US770&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjLndrd2cTbAhVESq0KHX1cAPwQ_AUICygC&biw=1536&bih=824#imgrc=Q0v-pV7Nxl4kfM:)
I’m looking to devise a View Template Compare tool and access to the owner and creator of them.
public void ApplyViewTemplateToActiveView()
{
Document doc = this.ActiveUIDocument.Document;
View viewTemplate = (from v in new FilteredElementCollector(doc)
.OfClass(typeof(View))
.Cast<View>()
where v.IsTemplate == true && v.Name == "MyViewTemplate"
select v)
.First();
using (Transaction t = new Transaction(doc,"Set View Template"))
{
t.Start();
doc.ActiveView.ViewTemplateId = viewTemplate.Id;
t.Commit();
}
}
With Revit API you can access with:
GetTemplateParameterIds Method / ViewTemplateId Property
The Revit API exposes almost all the ViewTemplate properties.
For instance this method returns all the Visibility/Graphic Overrides for a specific category:
https://apidocs.co/apps/revit/2019/ed267b82-56be-6e3b-0c6d-4de7df1ed312.htm
The only thing I couldn't get for a ViewTemplate are the "includes", but all the rest seems to be there.
Update:
The list or properties "not included" can be retrieved with GetNonControlledTemplateParameterIds().
Yes, and no.
Yes, I guess you can use Forge Model Derivative API to export RVT file and then build a dashboard around the View Templates data. That's assuming that View Templates data actually gets exported when the model is translated. That data is not attached to any geometry so I would not be surprised if it was skipped. The question here is why? This is like renting a 16-wheel truck to move a duffel bag across the street.
No, if your intention is to directly interact with the RVT model. Forge can view it, but to push anything back or request changes to the model, is not available yet. Then again, I am not even sure that the view template data is available via model derivative exports.
This brings me another alternative. Why not just collect the data using Revit API, the standard way and then push it out to a Database and build on top of that? There is no reason to employ Forge for any of that.
Thanks Jeremy, I had dig into your amazing website and also some solution that Konrad post in the Dynamo Forum about this. In Revit seems pretty achievable, you filter the View that is View Template and then extracts these properties, is it correct?.
I am wondering if someone can point me in the right direction with Forge.
Some amazing guys are developing a BQL https://www.retriever.works/.
BQL(Building Query Language) is a query language for buildings, similar to how SQL is a query language for databases. It is fast and flexible. BQL helps improve efficiency for QA/QC (quality assurance and quality control), and building data extraction without leaving Revit. I am also trying these and I would like to understand if there are some works where I could start with Forge next week about this.

How to create an empty activerecord object in rails 4?

I am trying to develop a Rails application for QuickBase for which there is no adapter. I checked online for the QuickBase adapter but it is not working as it is for a very old version of rails and the author told me that he no longer supports it.
I want to be able to use the Active Record and the associated concepts of a typical rails application, but intervene and modify how the create, update and show actions work. I have created the application to create a new record successfully. However, when I want to be able to edit the record, I have first modified the edit action to go to my own database and get the data into an active record object.
To create an empty Active Record I said $user = User.new
Then I populated all the attributes with the data from my custom database. But the form still shows the Create User button, instead of Update User button. Apparently, I guess this is because the persist? method is returning false as this is a "new" object. But I know this is not a new one. So how do I influence the #user object to think it is a persistent one?
Alternatively, is there a way I can create the blank #user object without the new function?
I have checked all over the place, but couldn't find any clue on how to accomplish this. Thank you so much for your help.
You can try calling #user.disconnect! after your call #user = User.new, which will keep ActiveRecord from trying to write to the database, but I'm not sure that will solve your problem.
The larger problem is that you're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole here. The entire point of ActiveRecord is to abstract the connection to a database. So without a database, what's the point?
I think your best solution would be to write your own QB adapter. It may not be as difficult as you think, since you already seem to know how to read/write to the database.
You can read more about how to do that here: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/AbstractAdapter.html

setObjectId is not working

I wonder if is possible to assign an id when an item is created with parse:
ParseObject parseWord = new ParseObject(DataBaseHelper.TABLE_WORD);
parseWord.setObjectId(idRow);
parseWord.put(Word.NAME, word.getName());
parseWord.put(Word.TYPE, word.getType());
parseWord.put(Word.TRANSLATE, word.getTranslate());
parseWord.put(Word.EXAMPLE, word.getExample());
parseWord.put(Word.NOTE, word.getNote());
parseWord.put(Word.SYNC_AT, today);
parseWord.saveInBackground();
This code is not working, it doesnt save the item in the server. If I delete the setObjectId(idRow); it works. What am I doing wrong?.
Is there anyway to know when the saveInBackground is done?
Thanks
According to the ParseObject.setObjectID() API doc:
Setter for the object id. In general you do not need to use this.
However, in some cases this can be convenient. For example, if you are
serializing a ParseObject yourself and wish to recreate it, you can
use this to recreate the ParseObject exactly.
Also from the API doc:
An object id is assigned as soon as an object is saved to the server.
A reason, as the quote suggests, you might need to set the object ID is if you, wish to do something like save the fields of a parse object to a file. If you wanted to take the fields from your file and recreate a parse object, THEN you'd need to set it, as that's not done for you if you're not saving it to the server and just using an instance of the object for purposes internal to your application.
