I am using the DataTables jQuery plugin to display data from the database.
Currently I am using the example of Row Grouping to display the days per week.
I am working at this for a week now to also display an row at the bottom of the week to count the hours of that week but it seems to be nearly to impossible with this plugin to achieve that goal. Is there anybody who could advise me if this can be done and how.
Here is my code:
var api = this.api(),data;
var rows = api.rows({ page:'current' }).nodes();
var last = null;
total = new Array();
api.column(weekColumn, { page:'current' }).data().each(function(group, i) {
group_assoc = group.replace(' ',"_");
if (typeof total[group_assoc] != 'undefined') {
total[group_assoc]=total[group_assoc]+api.column(5).data()[i];
} else {
total[group_assoc]=api.column(5).data()[i];
}
if (last !== group) {
$(rows).eq( i ).before('<tr class="group" style="background-color:#3ea5ce;color:#ffffff;"><td colspan="5">{{ trans('admin.worktime.field.week') }} '+group+'</td><td colspan="3" class="'+group_assoc+'"></td></tr>');
last = group;
}
});
for (var key in total) {
$("." + key).html(total[key]);
}
Currently, it is been outputted as 09:3907:0008:0107:5207:28 instead of been counted as a total. How can I solve this?
I think you are trying to sum time values, but they are treated as strings and concatenated.
This post describes how to first make integer values of these time strings first. Calculate the sum of the integers and convert that back to a time.

I have a script running on Google Sheets, which brings data from another spreadsheet/file as an array and sets one of its column's data as a data validation into a cell. Then, as the user picks one option of this data validation, the script goes back to that file and brings its related data and sets it in an adjacent column and this repeats about 3 times, making the process slow.
I was wondering if that would be possible to store the first data collection into the document property and set the data validations by grabbing related information from that data set, instead of going to the other file everytime.
Here's an update, with a working version:
function listaCategorias() {
let listaGeral = sheetBDCadProd.getRange(2, 1, sheetBDCadProd.getLastRow(), 45).getValues();//Gets all values
//Extracts a column of interest for this first data validation setting
let categorias = [];
for (let a = 0; a < listaGeral.length; a++) {
categorias.push(listaGeral[a][17])
}
let uniqueCat = [...new Set(categorias)]; //Gets a list of unique values. Not sure how I'd do that within new Set, so I did a for loop before
//Sets the data validation
const cell = sheetVendSobEnc.getRange('B5');
const validationCat = SpreadsheetApp.newDataValidation().requireValueInList(uniqueCat).setAllowInvalid(false).build();
cell.clearContent();
cell.clearDataValidations();
cell.setDataValidation(validationCat);
//Saves the data into the document property for usage in the next script/data validation
listaGeral = JSON.stringify(listaGeral)
PropertiesService.getDocumentProperties().setProperty('listaGeral', listaGeral);
}
//This is getting one of the columns, based on the option picked..the one generated by the data validation above.
function listaDescricao() {
const categoria = sheetVendSobEnc.getRange('B5').getValue();
const dadosCadProd = PropertiesService.getDocumentProperties().getProperty('listaGeral')
let cadGeral = JSON.parse(dadosCadProd);
//Filters the elements matching the option picked
let filteredNomeSobEnc = cadGeral.filter(function (o) { return o[17] === categoria });
//Filters unique values
let listToApply = filteredNomeSobEnc.map(function (o) { return o[7] }).sort().reverse();
let descUnica = listToApply.filter((v, i, a) => a.indexOf(v) === i);
Logger.log('Descrição Única: ' + descUnica)
}
It's working, but I'd like to know the rooms for improvement here.
Thanks.
I have 9 columns of data. With the requirement in column 9 that there are data, the first column will dynamically fill in the current date.
I use the formula "= ArrayFormula (IF (ISTEXT (D7), TODAY ()," "))" but the problem is that if it passes the next day it will change to the next day's date. I do not want it to change the day after the new day, what should I do?
I am not sure if it is possible using a simple google sheet function.
If you want to use a google script to solve this then you can apply below:
function onEdit(){
dateStamp();
}
function dateStamp() {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName('Data')//change sheet name per your requirement;
const date = new Date();
const lr = ss.getDataRange().getLastRow();
const dataRange = ss.getRange(2,9,lr-1).getValues() //change range per your requirement;
const dateRange = ss.getRange(2,2,lr-1).getValues() //change range per your requirement;
for (i=0; i<dataRange.length; i++){
if(dataRange[i] !=''){
if (dateRange[i] == '')
ss.getRange(i+2,2).setValue(date);
}
}
}
Currently I'm trying to create a Google Apps Script for Google Sheets which will allow adding weekly recurring events, batchwise, for upcoming events. My colleagues will then make minor changes to these added events (e.g. make date and time corrections, change the contact person, add materials neccessary for the event and so forth).
So far, I have written the following script:
function CopyWeeklyEventRows() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var repeatingWeeks = ss.getRange(5,1).getValue(); // gets how many weeks it should repeat
var startDate = ss.getRange(6, 1).getValue(); // gets the start date
var startWeekday = startDate.getDay(); // gives the weekday of the start date
var regWeek = ss.getRange(9, 2, 4, 7).getValues(); // gets the regular week data
var regWeekdays = new Array(regWeek.length); // creates an array to store the weekdays of the regWeek
var ArrayStartDate = new Array(startDate); // helps to store the We
for (var i = 0; i < regWeek.length; i++){ // calculates the difference between startWeekday and each regWeekdays
regWeekdays[i] = regWeek[i][1].getDay() - startWeekday;
Logger.log(regWeekdays[i]);
// Add 7 to move to the next week and avoid negative values
if (regWeekdays[i] < 0) {
regWeekdays[i] = regWeekdays[i] + 7;
}
// Add days according to difference between startWeekday and each regWeekdays
regWeek[i][0] = new Date(ArrayStartDate[0].getTime() + regWeekdays[i]*3600000*24);
}
// I'm struggling with this line. The array regWeek is not sorted:
//regWeek.sort([{ column: 1, ascending: true }]);
ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow() + 1, 2, 4, 7).setValues(regWeek); // copies weekly events after the last row
}
It allows to add one week of recurring events to the overview section of the spreadsheet based on a start date. If the start date is a Tuesday, the regular week is added starting from a Tuesday. However, the rows are not sorted according to the dates:
.
How can the rows be sorted by ascending date (followed by time) before adding them to the overview?
My search for similar questions revealed Google Script sort 2D Array by any column which is the closest hit I've found. The same error message is shown when running my script with the sort line. I don't understand the difference between Range and array yet which might help to solve the issue.
To give you a broader picture, here's what I'm currently working on:
I've noticed that the format will not necessarily remain when adding
new recurring events. So far I haven't found the rule and formatted by
hand in a second step.
A drawback is currently that the weekly recurring events section is
fixed. I've tried to find the last filled entry and use it to set the
range of regWeek, but got stuck.
Use the column A to exclude recurring events from the addition
process using a dropdown.
Allow my colleagues to add an event to the recurring events using a
dropdown (e.g. A26). This event should then be added with sorting to
the right day of the week and start time. The sorting will come in
handy.
Thanks in advance for your input regarding the sorting as well as suggestions on how to improve the code in general.
A demo version of the spreadsheet
UpdateV01:
Here the code lines which copy and sort (first by date, then by time)
ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow()+1,2,4,7).setValues(regWeek); // copies weekly events after the last row
ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow()-3,2,4,7).sort([{column: 2, ascending: true}, {column: 4, ascending: true}]); // sorts only the copied weekly events chronologically
As #tehhowch pointed out, this is slow. Better to sort BEFORE writing.
I will implement this method and post it here.
UpdateV02:
regWeek.sort(function (r1, r2) {
// sorts ascending on the third column, which is index 2
return r1[2] - r2[2];
});
regWeek.sort(function (r1, r2) {
// r1 and r2 are elements in the regWeek array, i.e.
// they are each a row array if regWeek is an array of arrays:
// Sort ascending on the first column, which is index 0:
// if r1[0] = 1, r2[0] = 2, then 1 - 2 is -1, so r1 sorts before r2
return r1[0] - r2[0];
});
UpdateV03:
Here an attempt to repeat the recurring events over several weeks. Don't know yet how to include the push for the whole "week".
// Repeat week for "A5" times and add to start/end date
for (var j = 0; j < repeatingWeeks; j++){
for (var i = 0; i < numFilledRows; i++){
regWeekRepeated[i+j*6][0] = new Date(regWeek[i][0].getTime() + j*7*3600000*24); // <-This line leads to an error message
regWeekRepeated[i+j*6][3] = new Date(regWeek[i][3].getTime() + j*7*3600000*24);
}
}
My question was answered and I was able to make the code work as intended.
Given your comment - you want to sort the written chunk - you have two methods available. One is to sort written data after writing, by using the Spreadsheet service's Range#sort(sortObject) method. The other is to sort the data before writing, using the JavaScript Array#sort(sortFunction()) method.
Currently, your sort code //regWeek.sort([{ column: 1, ascending: true }]); is attempting to sort a JavaScript array, using the sorting object expected by the Spreadsheet service. Thus, you can simply chain this .sort(...) call to your write call, as Range#setValues() returns the same Range, allowing repeated Range method calling (e.g. to set values, then apply formatting, etc.).
This looks like:
ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow() + 1, 2, regWeek.length, regWeek[0].length)
.setValues(regWeek)
/* other "chainable" Range methods you want to apply to
the cells you just wrote to. */
.sort([{column: 1, ascending: true}, ...]);
Here I have updated the range you access to reference the data you are attempting to write - regWeek - so that it is always the correct size to hold the data. I've also visually broken apart the one-liner so you can better see the "chaining" that is happening between Spreadsheet service calls.
The other method - sorting before writing - will be faster, especially as the size and complexity of the sort increases. The idea behind sorting a range is you need to use a function that returns a negative value when the first index's value should come before the second's, a positive value when the first index's value should come after the second's, and a zero value if they are equivalent. This means a function that returns a boolean is NOT going to sort as one thinks, since false and 0 are equivalent in Javascript, while true and 1 are also equivalent.
Your sort looks like this, assuming regWeek is an array of arrays and you are sorting on numeric values (or at least values which will cast to numbers, like Dates).
regWeek.sort(function (r1, r2) {
// r1 and r2 are elements in the regWeek array, i.e.
// they are each a row array if regWeek is an array of arrays:
// Sort ascending on the first column, which is index 0:
// if r1[0] = 1, r2[0] = 2, then 1 - 2 is -1, so r1 sorts before r2
return r1[0] - r2[0];
});
I strongly recommend reviewing the Array#sort documentation.
You could sort the "Weekly Events" range before you set the regWeek variable. Then the range would be in the order you want before you process it. Or you could sort the whole "Overview" range after setting the data. Here's a quick function you can call to sort the range by multiple columns. You can of course tweak it to sort the "Weekly Events" range instead of the "Overview" range.
function sortRng() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var firstRow = 22; var firstCol = 1;
var numRows = ss.getLastRow() - firstRow + 1;
var numCols = ss.getLastColumn();
var overviewRng = ss.getRange(firstRow, firstCol, numRows, numCols);
Logger.log(overviewRng.getA1Notation());
overviewRng.sort([{column: 2, ascending: true}, {column: 4, ascending: true}]);
}
As for getting the number of filled rows in the Weekly Events section, you need to search a column that will always have data if any row has data (like the start date column b), loop through the values and the first time it finds a blank, return that number. That will give you the number of rows that it needs to copy. Warning: if you don't have at least one blank value in column B between the Weekly Events section and the Overview section, you will probably get unwanted results.
function getNumFilledRows() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var eventFirstRow = 9; var numFilledRows = 0;
var colToCheck = 'B';//the StartDate col which should always have data if the row is filled
var vals = ss.getRange(colToCheck + eventFirstRow + ":" + colToCheck).getValues();
for (i = 0; i < vals.length; i++) {
if (vals[i][0] == '') {
numFilledRows = i;
break;
}
}
Logger.log(numFilledRows);
return numFilledRows;
}
EDIT:
If you just want to sort the array in javascript before writing, and you want to sort by Start Date first, then by Time of day, you could make a temporary array, and add a column to each row that is date and time combined. array.sort() sorts dates alphabetically, so you would need to convert that date to an integer. Then you could sort the array by the new column, then delete the new column from each row. I included a function that does this below. It could be a lot more compact but I thought it might be more legible like this.
function sortDates() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var vals = ss.getActiveSheet().getRange('B22:H34').getDisplayValues(); //get display values because getValues returns time as weird date 1899 and wrong time.
var theDate = new Date(); var newArray = []; var theHour = ''; var theMinutes = '';
var theTime = '';
//Create a new array that inserts date and time as the first column in each row
vals.forEach(function(aRow) {
theTime = aRow[2];//hardcoded - assumes time is the third column that you grabbed
//get the hours (before colon) as a number
theHour = Number(theTime.substring(0,theTime.indexOf(':')));
//get the minutes(after colon) as a number
theMinutes = Number(theTime.substring(theTime.indexOf(':')+1));
theDate = new Date(aRow[0]);//hardcoded - assumes date is the first column you grabbed.
theDate.setHours(theHour);
theDate.setMinutes(theMinutes);
aRow.unshift(theDate.getTime()); //Add the date and time as integer to the first item in the aRow array for sorting purposes.
newArray.push(aRow);
});
//Sort the newArray based on the first item of each row (date and time as number)
newArray.sort((function(index){
return function(a, b){
return (a[index] === b[index] ? 0 : (a[index] < b[index] ? -1 : 1));
};})(0));
//Remove the first column of each row (date and time combined) that we added in the first step
newArray.forEach(function(aRow) {
aRow.shift();
});
Logger.log(newArray);
}
I have a data set like
{"parent":"/home","inside":"/files","filename":"type.jar",
"extension":"jar","type":"modified","archive"}
Likewise many there are many rows in the json array. I am using crossfilter to read the data and plot graphs and datatables. the Type in the data set has values "added", "modified" and "deleted".
I want to create a data table like
Extension | Added | Modified | Deleted
where added, modified and deleted will hold the count of the files with the specific extension. Can anyone suggest me a way to do so?
So far I have created a dimension like this:
var extensionType = facts.dimension(function(d) {
return d.extension; });
var extensionTypeGroup=extensionType.group();
and I get a grouped output like this,
{"key":"class","value":424},
{"key":"js","value":176},
{"key":"properties","value":26},
{"key":"jar","value":10},
{"key":"css","value":8},
{"key":"txt","value":6},
{"key":"war","value":4},
{"key":"png","value":4},
{"key":"handlebars","value":4},
{"key":"jar_local","value":2},
{"key":"aar","value":2}
How do I get the separate count of added deleted and modified?
Probably the easiest way to do this is to reduce to an object rather than a single value.
This is covered in the FAQ: How do I reduce multiple values at once? What if rows contain a single value but a different value per row? You probably just needed the right search terms to find it.
Actually it looks like the code from the FAQ will work for you unmodified:
var extensionTypeGroup = extensionType.group().reduce(
function(p, v) { // add
p[v.type] = (p[v.type] || 0) + v.value;
return p;
},
function(p, v) { // remove
p[v.type] -= v.value;
return p;
},
function() { // initial
return {};
});
Thanks already to Serge insas for his insight both here and here, which have been a godsend for me already. But...I'm having trouble tying everything together with date validation.
To clarify, I have a GAS intended to verify that the date in Column A is (a) more than seven days old and (b) not null. If both pass, the script determines the first empty row in Column G, and then pauses before completing various functions. The beginning of the script looks like...
function getStats() {
var doc = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = doc.getSheetByName("Main");
var TITLE_ROW = 1;
var DATE_COL = 1;
var URL_COL = 4;
var sevendaysBefore = new Date(new Date().getTime()-7*24*60*60*1000);
if (DATE_COL != ''||(DATE_COL != null || DATE_COL< sevendaysBefore)) {
var end = sheet.getLastRow();
for( var i = 1; i < end; i++) {
var Gvals = sheet.getRange("G1:G").getValues();
var Glast = Gvals.filter(String).length;
var rowNum = TITLE_ROW+Glast;
var itemurl = sheet.getRange(rowNum,URL_COL).getValues();
Utilities.sleep(500);
...
I've clearly implemented something wrong, though, because the date validation doesn't work—the script appears to function as though the data in Column A doesn't matter. I'm sure I've done something incredibly idiotic, but I'm too ignorant to spot it on my own. So...anyone know what I've overlooked?
While the other answer is probably working (didn't test), its approach is very different from yours.
Below is code that follows the same logic as yours but works at the array level (to follow recommendations in Best practices).
I added a few comments to show the differences, hoping it will help you to understand how it works.
function getStats() {
var doc = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = doc.getSheetByName("Main");
var Glast; // define the variable for later use
var vals = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();// get all data in an array (do that before loop)
var TITLE_ROW = 0;// use array index instead of real row numbers
var DATE_COL = 0;// use array index instead of real column numbers
var URL_COL = 3;// use array index instead of real column numbers
var sevendaysBefore = new Date(new Date().getTime()-7*24*60*60*1000).getTime();// get native value in milliseconds to make comparison easier below
for( var i = 1; i < vals.length; i++) { // start loop from Row 2 (=array index 1)
if(vals[i][0]!='' && vals[i][0]!=null&&vals[i][0].getTime()<sevendaysBefore){continue};// use && instead of ||, we want ALL conditions to be true ( see !='' and !=null)
Glast = i; break ;// first occurrence of data meeting above condition (non null and date < 7 days before)
}
var itemurl = vals[Glast][URL_COL];// get the value from the array
Utilities.sleep(500);
//...
Mistake : You are hard coding DATE_COL = 1 and you are using this in if statement. It doesn't get the value of the cell. Also I am not getting your statement "date in Column A is (a) more than seven days old". Is that date is from a cell or you are iterating through all the cells in column A ?.
Below code will satisfy your need and I tested. Here as example I am checking date validation for cell R1C1(A1).
1)Get the date from cell. You can change it or Iterate the cells in column for date.
2) We have date.valueOf() method which returns the number of milliseconds since midnight 1970-01-01.
3) Validation : check the cell data is date and greater than 7 days
function compDate()
{
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();
var cell = sheet.getRange("A1"); //point1
var date01 = new Date();
var date02 = cell.getValue(); //point2
var dateDiff = (date01.valueOf()-date02.valueOf())/(24*60*60*1000);
if((isValidDate(date02)) == true && dateDiff > 7) //point3
Logger.log("success");
}
//below function will return true if the arg is valid date and false if not.
function isValidDate(d) {
if ( Object.prototype.toString.call(d) !== "[object Date]" )
return false;
return !isNaN(d.getTime());
}
