I can start a Questetra process like with this request:
curl https://sample.questetra.net/System/Event/IntermediateMessage/123/0/start \
-d "data[0].selects=new_york"
... where the final parameter's value is the "Choice ID" in this table (called the Master file of Choice type data item in Questetra):
+-----------+----------+
| Choice ID | Label |
+-----------+----------+
| new_york | New York |
| paris | Paris |
| ... | ... |
+-----------+----------+
Problem: The client app only has data in the format of the Label column. For instance, the client app has New York but has no way to convert that to new_york.
Question: Is there any way to start the Questetra process using values from the Label column as arguments?
Either by specifying them directly and setting some kind of flag, or by getting the values "translated" using a preliminary request, or any other way.

Does anyone know how to do this? I have tried everything I could think of in terms of how it could be stored as a variable, but I don't know what to do.
The title of a column is shown as its key name. For example, this:
| id | value |
| -- | ----- |
| 1| 6 |
is shown as this:
{
id: 1,
value: 6
}
The column name in this case is value. All you have to do is just put "value" (or whatever column name you're using) next to where you're showing the cell content.
Lets say i have multiple columns coming from two different files like that :
USERNAME | AGE | GENDER | CHILDREN
Joe | 23 | male | 2
Annie | 45 | female | 5
| | |
And another one like this :
USERNAME | AGE |
Jonathan | 33 |
Mike | 41 |
And i want to merge the data of the columns that have the same name into one like this while keeping the data of the columns that are unique at each field:
USERNAME | AGE | GENDER | CHILDREN
Joe | 23 | male | 2
Annie | 45 | female | 5
Jonathan | 33 | |
Mike | 41 | |
Sorry if the answer is obvious, im new to talend, thanks.
What tool is available toy you?
The Append function in SAS for example can do this for you.
You can use the append approach in Python, R or other language you intend using.
For Talen:
Copy the complete subjob1 – copy me sub job and paste it to create a second sub job.
Link the two sub jobs using an onSubjobOK link.
Open tFixedFlowInput, and change Records from first subjob to Records from second subjob.
Open tFileOutputDelimited on the new sub job, and tick Append, as shown in the following screenshot:
use a tUnite component to accomplish that
here is the link of the documentation : https://help.talend.com/r/fr-FR/8.0/orchestration/tunite
your flow would be
tFileInput1(excel or csv ) ----------------------------------------------
|
| ->tUnite -> tLogRow
tFileInput2(excel or csv )->tMap (add to empty fields GENDER & Children )|
I have a cucumber feature that checks a website has processed payment files correctly (BACS,SEPA, FPS etc). The first stage of the process is to create the payment files which in-turn create expected result data in a database. This data is then used to validate against the payment processing website.
If I process one file, my feature works perfectly validating the expected results. Where I'm stuck is how I get the feature to run (n) number of times depending on the number of records/files that were originally processed.
I've tried an 'Around' hook using a record count iteration with no joy, can't see how I can fit it into an outline scenario and now think that perhaps a rake task to call the feature might work.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a sample of the feature:
Feature: Processing SEPA Credit Transfer Files. Same Day Value Payments.
Background:
Given we want to test the "SEPA_Regression" scenario suite
And that we have processed a "SEPA" file from the "LDN" branch
And we plan to use the "ITA1" environment
Then we log in to "OPF" as a "SEPA Department" user
#feature #find_and_check_sepa_interchange #all_rows
Scenario: Receive SEPA Credit Transfer Files for branch
Given that we are on the "Payment Management > Interchanges" page
When I search for our Interchange with the following search parameters:
| Field Name |
| Transport Date From |
| Bank |
| Interchange Reference |
Then I can check the following fields for the given file in the "Interchanges" table:
| Field Name|
| Interchange Reference |
| Transport Date |
| File Name |
| File Format |
| Clearing Participant |
| Status |
| Direction |
| Bank |
When I select the associated "Interchange Id" link
Then the "Interchange Details" page is displayed
Update I've implemented nested steps for the feature so that I can call the database records first and feed each set of records (or at least the row id) into the main feature like so:
Feature
#trial_feature
Scenario: Validate multiple Files
Given we have one or more records in the database to process for the "SEPA_Regression" scenario
Then we can validate each file against the system
Feature steps:
Then(/^we can validate each file against the system$/) do
x = 0
while x <= $interchangeHash.count - 1
$db_row = x
# Get the other sets of data using the file name in the query
id = $interchangeHash[x]['id']
file_name = $interchangeHash[x]['CMS_Unique_Reference_Id']
Background.get_data_for_scenario(scenario, file_name)
steps %{
Given that we are on the "Payment Management > Interchanges" page
When I search for our Interchange with the following search parameters:
| Field Name |
| Transport Date From |
| Bank |
| Interchange Reference |
Then I can check the following fields for the given file in the "Interchanges" table:
| Field Name|
| Interchange Reference |
| Transport Date |
| File Name |
| File Format |
| Clearing Participant |
| Status |
| Direction |
| Bank |
When I select the associated "Interchange Id" link
Then the "Interchange Details" page is displayed
Seems a bit of a 'hack' but it works.
If you have batch processing software, then you should have several Given (setup) steps, 1 When (trigger) step, several Then (criteria) steps.
Given I have these SEPA bills
| sepa bill 1 |
| sepa bill 2 |
And I have these BAC bills
| bac bill 1 |
| bac bill 2 |
When the payments are processed
Then these sepa bills are completed
| sepa bill 1 |
| sepa bill 2 |
And I these bac bills are completed
| bac bill 1 |
| bac bill 2 |
It's simpler, easier to read what is supposed to be done, and can be expanded to more. The works should be done in the step definitions of setting up and verifying.
Using Derby, is it possible to offset by a value from the query rather than an integer literal?
When I run this query, it complains about the value I've given to the offset clause.
select
PRIZE."NAME" as "Prize Name",
PRIZE."POSITION" as "Position",
(select
PARTICIPANT."NAME"
from PARTICIPANT
order by POINTS desc
offset PRIZE."POSITION" rows fetch next 1 row only <-- notice I'm trying to pass in a value to offset by
) as "Participant"
from PRIZE
With the expectation that the results would look like this:
| Prize Name | Position | Participant |
|--------------|----------|---------------|
| Gold medal | 1 | Mari Loudi |
| Silver medal | 2 | Keesha Vacc |
| Bronze medal | 3 | Melba Hammit |
| Hundredth | 100 | James Thornby |
The documentation suggests that it's possible to pass in a value from java code, but I'm trying to use a value from the query itself.
By the way, this is just an example schema to illustrate the point.
I know there are other ways to achieve the ranking, but I'm specifically interested if there's a way to pass values to the offset clause.
I am designing a content class in ezpublish 5 where i need a filed like rating in different categories. I want to give content editor an interface in admin panel where he can choose a category to rate from dropdown and then text field to put rating point (1-5).
How to achieve this in ezpublish5?
The Matrix data/fieldtype sounds like it's close to what you need.
It allows you to set a table of values with a set number of columns. The limitation here is that each field is a free text entry for users.
| Review | Rating | Notes |
|-------------------|-------------|--------------------|
| Customer Service | 5 | Friendly & polite |
| Quality of Food | 4 | Tasty & Plentiful |
| ... | ... | ... |
There is a symfony bundle available for the Matrix fieldtype to allow access to the data in the Symfony stack: https://github.com/ezcommunity/EzMatrixFieldTypeBundle.
Alternatively there is the option to create your own data/fieldtype: http://share.ez.no/learn/ez-publish/creating-datatypes-in-ez-publish-4 & https://doc.ez.no/display/EZP/eZ+Publish+5+Field+Type+Tutorial
