meta fields using elasticsearch-dsl - elasticsearch

I'm looking at the changelog for the elasticsearch-dsl python library, and one of the comments says:
you can no longer access meta fields on a Document instance by
specifying ._id or similar. Instead all access needs to happen via the
.meta attribute.
Can I get a little more color on that? My old (5.x) code did this
self._id = a_nice_natural_identiifer
How should that be replaced?
self.meta._id = a_nice_natural_identifier
or
self.meta['_id'] = a_nice_natural_identifier
or
self.meta['id'] = a_nice_natural_identifier

It appears that the correct answer is
self.meta['id'] = a_nice_natural_identifier
(Interestingly, you can also set meta properties at construction time by doing)
foo = SomeSubclassOfDocument(_id=a_nice_natural_identifier)

How do I use the appProperties with the ruby api-client

I can't determine how to add custom properties or search for them.
Everything I have tried is giving me a Error - #<Google::Apis::ClientError: invalid: Invalid query> when I attempt to search for them. I can successfully complete other queries but I don't know if the client is setup to work with appProperties (or even properties at all).
Basically I just need the correct syntax for searching and adding since it doesn't appear to be in the documentation.
Assuming you already have a reference to an authorized DriveService, you can search based on appProperties using a q-parameter (documented here), like this:
file_list = drive.list_files(
q: "appProperties has { key='my_app_key' and value='my_val' }",
fields: 'files(id, name, appProperties)',
spaces: 'drive')
If you omit the fields parameter then the search will still work but the properties themselves won't be returned.
Updating appProperties is definitely arcane and the documentation is opaque. What you need is the ID of the file, and a File value object as a container for the attributes to update. Something like this:
new_app_properties = { 'my_app_key' => 'my_val' }
update_f = Google::Apis::DriveV3::File.new(app_properties: new_app_properties)
drive.update_file(file_id, update_f)

Xpath Part NULL, with xpaths set via content control toolkit

I've been able to set, via code, the xpaths for the placeholders found in the document.
for (Object o : finderSdtRun.results) {
if (o instanceof SdtRun){
SdtPr sdtPr=((SdtRun) o).getSdtPr();
Tag t = sdtPr.getTag();
CTDataBinding ctDataBinding = Context.getWmlObjectFactory().createCTDataBinding();
//JAXBElement jaxbDB = Context.getWmlObjectFactory().createSdtPrDataBinding(ctDataBinding);
sdtPr.setDataBinding(ctDataBinding);
ctDataBinding.setXpath("tuttappostaferragost");
ctDataBinding.setStoreItemID("something");
ObjectFactory factory = new org.opendope.xpaths.ObjectFactory();
DataBinding db = factory.createXpathsXpathDataBinding();
db.setXpath("tuttappostaferragost");
db.setStoreItemID("something");
Xpaths.Xpath xp = factory.createXpathsXpath();
xp.setDataBinding(db);
xp.setId("something");
try {
wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getXPathsPart().getContents().getXpath().add(xp);
} catch (Docx4JException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
;
The problem is that, once set, they are not recognized by word, so I thought to add the created Xpaths to a new XpathPart, and then add it to the main Document part.
But I failed because the method:
wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getXPathsPart()
returns null. This sounded reasonable, since only content control was set, without any Xpath.
Then I set the Xpaths via content control toolkit and the same line of code like above, returned me null, which added a lot of confusion in my yet confused ideas.
Is there any way to tell the document that new Xpath have been added to the document?
I mean, if there is a way to add Xpath via code (the w:databinding w:storedItemId tags), why it is not possible to make it work?
In general I want to add Xpath and all information necessary, via code, avoiding the use of any toolkit.
Thank you :D
First, you have to decide whether you want plain old Word databinding, or the additional OpenDoPE capabilities (which use the content control tag to support repeats, conditionals etc).
You only need an XPaths part if you are using the OpenDoPE extensions.
I'll assume for now that you are just looking to do basic Word content control databinding.
To set that up programmatically, you need to add a custom xml part, and a rel from it to its itemProps.xml part, which contains something like:
<ds:datastoreItem ds:itemID="{5448916C-134B-45E6-B8FE-88CC1FFC17C3}" xmlns:ds="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/customXml">
<ds:schemaRefs/>
</ds:datastoreItem>
(to add a part B to part A, use partA.addTargetPart)
You can see it is this part with gives the custom xml part its itemID; this corresponds with the value you set in:
DataBinding db = factory.createXpathsXpathDataBinding();
db.setStoreItemID("something");
Then, set the XPath via the method you were using.

Mongoengine Django Rest Framework - Serializer Error - ReferenceField is not JSON serializable

Everything works great until the ObjectID value of the ReferenceField no longer points to a valid document. Then The ObjectID is left as the value, and json doesn't know how to serialize this.
How do I deal with invalid ReferenceFields?
E.g.
class Food(Document):
name = StringField()
owner = ReferenceField("Person")
class Person(Document):
first_name = StringField()
last_name = StringField()
...
p = Person(...)
apple = Food(name="apple", owner=p)
p.delete() # might be the wrong method, but you get the idea
At this point, attempting to fetch a list of foods via the REST API will fail with the is not JSON serializable error, since apple.owner no longer points to an owner that exists.
Since you are using DRF with mongoengine, you must be using django-rest-framework-mongoengine.
Apparenly, its a bug in django-rest-framework-mongoengine. Check this open issue on Github which was reported recently regarding the same.
https://github.com/umutbozkurt/django-rest-framework-mongoengine/issues/91
One way is to write your own JSONEncoder for this. This link might help.
Another option is to use the json_util library of Pymongo. They provide explicit BSON conversion to and from json.
As per json-util docs:
This module provides two helper methods dumps and loads that wrap the
native json methods and provide explicit BSON conversion to and from
json. This allows for specialized encoding and decoding of BSON
documents into Mongo Extended JSON‘s Strict mode. This lets you encode
/ decode BSON documents to JSON even when they use special BSON types.

Extracting value from complex hash in Ruby

I am using an API (zillow) which returns a complex hash. A sample result is
{"xmlns:xsi"=>"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance",
"xsi:schemaLocation"=>"http://www.zillow.com/static/xsd/SearchResults.xsd http://www.zillowstatic.com/vstatic/5985ee4/static/xsd/SearchResults.xsd",
"xmlns:SearchResults"=>"http://www.zillow.com/static/xsd/SearchResults.xsd", "request"=>[{"address"=>["305 Vinton St"], "citystatezip"=>["Melrose, MA 02176"]}],
"message"=>[{"text"=>["Request successfully processed"], "code"=>["0"]}],
"response"=>[{"results"=>[{"result"=>[{"zpid"=>["56291382"], "links"=>[{"homedetails"=>["http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/305-Vinton-St-Melrose-MA-02176/56291382_zpid/"],

"comparables"=>["http://www.zillow.com/homes/comps/56291382_zpid/"]}], "address"=>[{"street"=>["305 Vinton St"], "zipcode"=>["02176"], "city"=>["Melrose"], "state"=>["MA"], "latitude"=>["42.466805"],
"longitude"=>["-71.072515"]}], "zestimate"=>[{"amount"=>[{"currency"=>"USD", "content"=>"562170"}], "last-updated"=>["06/01/2014"], "oneWeekChange"=>[{"deprecated"=>"true"}], "valueChange"=>[{"duration"=>"30", "currency"=>"USD", "content"=>"42749"}], "valuationRange"=>[{"low"=>[{"currency"=>"USD",

"name"=>"Melrose", "links"=>[{"overview"=>["http://www.zillow.com/local-info/MA-Melrose/r_23017/"], "forSaleByOwner"=>["http://www.zillow.com/melrose-ma/fsbo/"],
"forSale"=>["http://www.zillow.com/melrose-ma/"]}]}]}]}]}]}]}
I can extract a specific value using the following:
result = result.to_hash
p result["response"][0]["results"][0]["result"][0]["zestimate"][0]["amount"][0]["content"]
It seems odd to have to specify the index of each element in this fashion. Is there a simpler way to obtain a named value?
It looks like this should be parsed into XML. According to the Zillow API Docs, it returns XML by default. Apparently, "to_hash" was able to turn this into a hash (albeit, a very ugly one), but you are really trying to swim upstream by using it this way. I would recommend using it as intended (xml) at the start, and then maybe parsing it into an easier to use format (like a JSON/Hash structure) later.
Nokogiri is GREAT at parsing XML! You can use the xpath syntax for grabbing elements from the dom, or even css selectors.
For example, to get an array of the "content" in every result:
response = #get xml response from zillow
results = Nokogiri::XML(response).remove_namespaces!
#using css
content_array = results.css("result content")
#same thing using xpath:
content_array = results.xpath("//result//content")
If you just want the content from the first result, you can do this as a shortcut:
content = results.at_css("result content").content
Since it is indeed XML dumped into a JSON, you could use JSONPath to query the JSON

PageObject with Ruby - set text in a text field only works in the main file

I'm automating a site that has a page with a list of options selected by a radio button. When selecting one of the radios, a text field and a select list are presented.
I created a file (test_contracting.rb) that is the one through which I execute the test (ruby test_contracting.rb) and some other classes to represent my page.
On my class ContractPage, I have the following element declaration:
checkbox(:option_sub_domain, :id => "option_sub_domain")
text_field(:domain, :id => "domain_text")
select_list(:tld, :id => "domain_tld")
I've created in the ContractPage a method that sets the configuration of the domain like this:
def configure_domain(config={})
check_option_sub_domain
domain = config[:domain]
tld = config[:tld]
end
When I call the method configure_domain from the test_contracting.rb, it selects the radio button, but it doesn't fill the field with the values. The params are getting into the method correctly. I've checked it using "puts". Even if I change the params to a general string like "bla" it doesnt work. The annoying point is that if on test_contracting.rb I call the exact same components, it works.
my_page_instance = ContractPage.new(browser)
my_page_instance.domain = "bla"
my_page_instance.tld = ".com"
What I found to work was to in the configure_domain method, implement the following:
domain_element.value = config[:domain]
tld_element.send_keys config[:locaweb_domain]
Then it worked.
The documentation for the PageObjects module that I'm using as reference can be found here: http://rubydoc.info/github/cheezy/page-object/master/PageObject/Accessors#select_list-instance_method
Do you guys have any explation on why the method auto generated by the pageobject to set the value of the object didnt work in this scope/context ?
By the way, a friend tried the same thing with Java and it failed as well.
In ruby all equals methods (methods that end with the = sign) need to have a receiver. Let me show you some code that will demonstrate why. Here is the code that sets a local variable to a value:
domain = "blah"
and here is the code that calls the domain= method:
domain = "blah"
In order for ruby to know that you are calling a method instead of setting a local variable you need to add a receiver. Simply change your method above to this and it will work:
def configure_domain(config={})
check_option_sub_domain
self.domain = config[:domain]
self.tld = config[:tld]
end
I'm pretty new to this world of Selenium and page objects but maybe one of my very recent discoveries might help you.
I found that that assignment methods for the select_list fields only worked for me once I started using "self" in front. This is what I have used to access it within my page object code. e.g., self.my_select_list="my select list value"
Another note - The send_keys workaround you mention is clever and might do the trick for a number of uses, but in my case the select list values are variable and may have several options starting with the same letter.
I hope something in here is useful to you.
UPDATE (Jan 3/12)
On diving further into the actual Ruby code for the page object I discovered that the select_list set is also using send_keys, so in actuality I still have the same limitation here as the one I noted using the send_keys workaround directly. sigh So much to learn, so little time!
