How to get clipboard content origin or generator [duplicate] - windows

This question already has an answer here:
Get the origin data source with System.Windows.Clipboard?
(1 answer)
Closed 4 years ago.
My application is consuming HTML from clipboard.
I am trying to find a method that allows to get origin of the content, ideally to have some function that returns one of enum SOURCE { EMAIL, WORD, EXCEL, WEB, etc. }
So far I am using two sources of the information:
<meta generator="..." /> that comes in CF_HTML.
url of clipboard content (part of CF_HTML data).
But neither one is reliable for identification purposes. For example generator equals to "Microsoft Word 15" on content coming from MS Word, Windows Mail, MS Outlook. But EXCEL is fine - "Microsoft Excel 15".
I was also trying to get some meaningful info from GetClipboardOwner() API but it returns some generic window like "CLIPBOARDWND" or some as such.
So is the question: is there any stable method to get origin meta information of clipboard content?
Update: A bit of context, I am writing personal note taking application in Sciter where capture source should allow to classify notes properly (see "Attributes"):

i dont know if this is old, but you might check this answer: Get the origin data source with System.Windows.Clipboard?
if you can get the origin object then you can create a login to get what kind of app it is

How to access to Outlook (desktop client on macOS) stored emails programmatically

I'm trying to read emails from Outlook (desktop client on macOS) installation programmatically.
For Thunderbird I only need to read the files stored in /Users/xxxx/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/xxxx.default-release/ImapMail/someemailaccount/.
Each file on that directory is named after the name of each folder on the email account (INBOX, Sent, etc.) and it contains all the emails (header, body and attachments). So all I have to do is to read that file with some programming language and apply the right decoder depending on the Content-Transfer-Encoding header.
For Outlook I found this file: /Users/xxxx/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/Outlook/Outlook 15 Profiles/Main Profile/HxStore.hxd but it looks doesn't look to be readable, is it on a binary format? it is compressed or encrypted?
I tried to see its contents using Hex Field app and it displays that the file contains some blocks of data but those blocks look to be broken or encrypted/compressed (more info about that file here https://boncaldoforensics.wordpress.com/2018/12/09/microsoft-hxstore-hxd-email-research/):
<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" cp="text/;ñ; charset=utf-8"></Lð<body><div dir="ltr">1234567890ñ>
...
As you can see above, the contents look to be there but there are some strange characters on it. Also, the file has a lot of sections with no characters or random ones.
Does anybody know how can I read this file?
If you use the older outlook interface (or switch back to it) you can access the underlying sqlite database pretty easily.
However this will be discontinued at some point and Outlook will completely switch to the new interface based on Core Spotlight.
I am also looking for a way to access emails from the new interface, and yes the data seems to be in this file. Anybody else have pointers on how to access?

How to share information between cooperating Firefox WebExtensions

I want to create a straightforward extension for Firefox.
User hovers over some word on any page
Pull the dictionary definition of that word from a file inside the extension
Display it while still hovered
I am new to Firefox add-ons and WebExtensions, so here's what I'm wondering:
I want the dictionary file(s) used by the extension to be local, instead of referring to some online website each time.
Any given user might be interested in a different part of the entire dictionary (it contains entries in different languages, users might only want their own 1 or 2 languages) so I want to avoid forcing every user to download the entire dictionary base.
The way I have seen similar add-ons handle that before Firefox 5.* is that they offer the search-and-display add-on separately from the dictionary files which are each available as add-ons in their own right, only actually doing stuff if you have the master add-on installed.
However, none of those examples seem to have been updated for the WebExtensions API and do not support more recent versions of Firefox.
I have also been unable to find how to communicate between web extensions so far.
My question being, how can I share information between 2 or more coorperating extensions to achieve what I described.
And actually, if this seems really stupid for some reason I'm unaware of, do point out any more reasonable alternatives that allow me to handle the dictionary files separately from the main extension.
Possibly related questions I found:
Communicating between 2 Firefox Add-Ons (Cross-Extension Communication)
This one is from 2010 however, thus out of date as far as I could tell.
Mozilla Addon Development - Communicating between windows with different domains
Kind of a similar situation, but they want to pull the definitions from an online source, rather than a local one.
The closest thing I found on the Mozilla browser extension website is communicating between add-on and some native applications, not quite what I need I think.
Communicating between add-ons is a normal part of the functionality of runtime.sendMessage(), runtime.connect(), runtime.onMessage, and runtime.onConnect.
Both runtime.sendMessage() and runtime.connect() have as their optional first parameter:
extensionId
For runtime.sendMessage(), this is:
string. The ID of the extension to send the message to. Include this to send the message to a different extension. If the intended recipient has set an ID explicitly using the applications key in manifest.json, then extensionId should have that value. Otherwise it should have the ID that was generated for the intended recipient.
If extensionId is omitted, the message will be sent to your own extension.
For runtime.connect(), this is:
string. The ID of the extension to connect to. If the target has set an ID explicitly using the applications key in manifest.json, then extensionId should have that value. Otherwise it should be have the ID that was generated for the target.
Both runtime.onMessage, and runtime.onConnect provide a sender property or parameter, either with the message, or as part of the port. This parameter/property is a runtime.MessageSender which includes an id property which is:
id
string. The ID of the extension that sent the message, if the message was sent by an extension. If the sender set an ID explicitly using the applications key in manifest.json, then id will have this value. Otherwise it will have the ID that was generated for the sender.
Note that in Firefox, before version 54, this value was the extension's internal ID (that is, the UUID that appears in the extension's URL).

Google Drive API v3 : there isn't any way to get a download url for a google document?

The Google Drive API v2 to v3 migration guide says:
The exportLinks field has been removed from files. To export Google Documents, use the files.export method instead.
I don't want to export (download) the file right away. "files.export" will actually download the file. I want a link to download the file, later. This was possible in v2 by means of the exportLinks.
How can I in v3 accomplish the same? If it is not possible, why was this useful feature removed?
Besides, (similar problem to above) downloadUrl was also removed, and the suggested alternative ("files.get with ?alt=media") downloads the file instead of providing a download link. This means there is no way in v3 to get a public short lived URL for a file?
EDIT:
there is no way in v3 to get a public short lived URL for a file?
For regular files, apparently yes.
This seems to work fine (a public short lived link to the file with its right name and contents):
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/ID?alt=media&access_token=TOKEN
For google apps files, no (not even private, as v2 exportLinks used to be).
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/ID/exportmimeType=TYPEv&access_token=TOKEN
Similar to regular files, this URL is a short lived link to the file contents, but lacking of its right name.
BTW, I see the API is not behaving consistently: /drive/v3/files/FILEID delivers the right file name, but /drive/v3/files/FILEID/export does not.
I think the API itself should be setting the right Content-Disposition, as it is apparently doing when issuing a /drive/v3/files/FILEID call.
This file naming problem invalidates the workaround to the lack of ExportLinks in v3.
The v2 ExportLinks allowed me to link a file (which is not the same as getting its content right away). Anyone logged in and with the proper permissions was able to access it, and the link didn't needed any access_token, and it wasn't short lived. It was good and useful.
Building a link with a raw API call like /drive/v3/files/FILEID/export (with mandatory access_token) would be an close enough workaround (it is temporary and public, not the same as it was, anyway). However, the naming problem invalidates it.
In v2, regular files have a WebContentLink and google apps files have exportLinks. In v3 exportLinks are gone, and I don't see any suitable alternative to them.
Once you query for your file by id you can use the function getWebContentLink() to get the download link of the file (eg. $file->getWebContentLink() ).
I think you're placing too much emphasis on the word "method".
There is still a link to export a file, it's https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/fileIdxxxxx/export&mimeType=xxxxx/xxxxx. Make sure you URL encode the mime type.
Eg
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/1fGBQ81haNU_nEiC5GITZD3bxT0ppL2LHg-C0ubD4Q_s/export?mimeType=text/csv&access_token=ya29.Gmo0BMvO-pVEPKsiD9j4D-NZVGE91MChRvwOcBSg3cTHt5uAClf-jFxcovQScbO2QQhwHS95eSGW1eQQcK5G1UQ6oI4BFEJJkntEBkgriZ14GbHuvpDL7LT2pKA--WiPuNoDDIuZMm5lWtlr
These links form part of the API, so the expectation is that you've written a client that sends authenticated requests, and deals with the response data. This explains why, if you simply paste the link into a browser without an access_token, it will fail. It also explains why the filename is export, ie. it isn't intended that your client would ever use a filename, but rather it should receive the data as a stream. This SO answer discusses the situation in more detail How to set name of file downloaded from browser?

Exporting Sonarqube reports into Excel - based on major, minor and critical categories

Is there a way to export Sonarqube reports into Excel - based on major, minor and critical categories?
You can use the REST API, to query the data into JSON text and then export that JSON to a CSV file.
I used the command below to get a JSON response:
http://xxxxx.xx.xxxx.com:9000/api/issues/search?componentRoots=test_xxx_xx&statuses=OPEN,REOPENED&pageSize=500&pageIndex=1
Where componentRoots is the your sonar project name.
It gave all the issues in JSON and then I converted it in to a CSV.
The only way is to use the api/issues/search web service
Yes you can use the REST APIs provided with SonarQube to query. The documentation of APIs is also embedded into every Sonar instance as different versions expose different APIs.
We use Python for similar work as response will be in JSON and it will be easier to manipulate. Once you have arrived extracted issues of your liking, write them into .CSV or excel.
Link to web services will be in footer of Sonar Instance.
PS: Expanded answer to offset short-sighted answering. What is provided here is only abstract and not complete answer with query details.
Not recommended by community
With DB:- If you have been using Sonar for long and if you won't upgrade SQ too often you can choose to study table structure and understand how data is organised. We have done this too, but it gets messier with every passing upgrade (more inner queries). Cost of querying will be saved on bulk process of data as ES is not involved
Please try the following command to get all issues in JSON format. Then you may consider to parse output by using jason parser programs.
Replace "XXX:XXX" with Sonar Key defined in "sonar.projectKey" variable on "sonar-project.properties.txt" file
http://localhost:9000/api/issues/search?componentKeys=XXX:XXX
I used F12 developer tools to create the report. Here is step by step solution:
Before opening Sonar report, press F12 to open developer tools in the browser tab (Refer screenshot). Click on Network tab. Initially it'll be empty:
Open Sonar report in the same browser tab.
Now you have to select a request in URL column (Refer screenshot in point # 4). You've to select that request whose URL is of the format - https://sonar:8443/api/issues/search?. Base URL might be different depending upon the name of the server where you have hosted Sonar website.
Click on Response tab (Refer screenshot):
Copy the entire JSON data to clipboard. First press Ctrl + A and then Ctrl + C to copy the contents.
JSON data that you got is in below format:
Data of all the issues is present inside issues key. It is of array type as it contains a list of issues. Paste the entire JSON data into any notepad editor and get the value of issues node. A sample issues node data is shown below:

The JSON array data obtained in previous step is of real use. Convert this JSON array data into an EXCEL file using any online converter. I used the following website - https://www.convertcsv.com/json-to-csv.htm
What if my report has more than one page?
Sonar loads 100 records per page. To get the next page you've to click on Show More button at the bottom:
Every time you click on the Show More button, a new request goes to the Sonar server which will show up in the F12 developer tool's Network tab. So for all subsequent pages, repeat same set of steps to create a new Excel sheet per page. Then merge all the Excel sheets manually to create single master report.
Note: While merging the Excel files, remember that every Excel file will have a header row at the top. While merging the files, you'll have to keep the header row from from the first Excel sheet and ignore from the rest.

Copy one slide from a google presentation into a new google presentation using API [duplicate]

I wish to use Google Drive API for creating a new Google Slides, but with one slide copied from another previous presentation.
My question is, is that possible to build a new Google Slides and insert slides (singularly) into the new one.
Or is it possible to delete the a slide from Google Presentation?
Although imperfect, you may be able to get close using the new Google Slides API. You can read the slide from the source presentation and then attempt to replicate it in the destination presentation. At the moment not all Slides features are supported in the API, so there may be some information loss is the process.
(Feb 2017) As of Nov 2016 with the release of the Google Slides API, an alternative to the solution the OP is asking for is now possible although not directly with the API. That workaround is that the ONE SLIDE you want copied is in its own standalone file. Then you can use two Google APIs to make it happen: the Slides API (to perform the document-level functions like adding new slides) as well as the Google Drive API (for file-oriented access like copying).
Sounds like you're using the Google APIs Client Library for Ruby, so you're set there. The next step is to create a project in the Google Developers Console with both the Google Drive and Google Slides APIs enabled, then download the client_secret*.json file after you create your OAuth2 credentials.
To help you get started, here's the Ruby quickstart sample for the Drive API, and here's the Ruby quickstart for the Slides API. If you're not "allergic" to Python (if you are, just pretend it's pseudocode ;) ), I've made several videos with more "real-world" examples of using the Slides API you can learn from and migrate to Ruby if desired.
Below is another Python example which you can port to Ruby that does exactly what the OP asked, assuming your template file is SLIDE_TEMPLATE_FILE, DRIVE is your Drive API service endpoint, and SLIDES is the endpoint for the Slides API. If someone PMs me a Ruby port, I'll update this answer with it.
# query for template file with one slide
TMPLFILE = SLIDE_TEMPLATE_FILE
rsp = DRIVE.files().list(q="name='%s'" % TMPLFILE).execute().get('files')[0]
# copy template file
DATA = {'name': 'Google Drive & Slides API template DEMO'}
DECK_ID = DRIVE.files().copy(body=DATA, fileId=rsp['id']).execute().get('id')
# create 2 more (1 title-only & 1 blank) slides in copied file
reqs = [
{'createSlide': {'slideLayoutReference': {'predefinedLayout': 'TITLE_ONLY'}}},
{'createSlide': {'slideLayoutReference': {'predefinedLayout': 'BLANK'}}},
]
SLIDES.presentations().batchUpdate(body={'requests': reqs},
presentationId=DECK_ID).execute()
Finally, yes, you can also delete slides from presentations with the deleteObject request, passing in the ID of the slide/page you want removed. Another workaround if you can't isolate the ONE SLIDE: copy the entire presentation & delete all pages except the ONE SLIDE, then start adding new slides. Hopefully the API will eventually get "the right solution" so we don't have to play these games.
It is not possible from the API to perform this complete operation from API.
Although, we can create new or copy existing Google Presentation.
Or, we can do that from browser interaction by ctrl+c one slide and ctrl+v into another one.
