I'm trying to create a data structure object. There are two possible values to one of its properties but they are of mixed type. Some of the time, it may be a number, but some of the time it may be an array of strings.
{"collectorNo": 285}
{"collectorNo": ["60a", "60b"]}
I think some sort of enum[string array[string]] might be needed but I can't seem to make it work. Thanks in advance.
what about using One Of type? Docs on https://apiblueprint.org/documentation/mson/specification.html#52-one-of-type, example below.
- One Of
- collectorNo: ["60a", "60b"] (array[string])
- collectorNo: 285 (number)

I am new to this Middleware and I tried my level best to perform sorting using the flow steps in designer but couldn't make it.Can anybody help me out by giving me direction for how to complete my work?(like the flow steps in order and where i can put the conditions and all)
Thanks.
No need to over-complicate it - use the utilities - pub.document:sortDocuments is what you are looking for.
If you receive stringList as input - convert this into a documentList. This can be done using pub.list:stringListToDocumentList (set the key to 'value')
Use pub.document:sortDocuments to sort the documentList. Remember to specify the key as 'value' once again and compareStringAs as 'numeric'. The order can also be set (ascending/descending)
What do you want to Sort? For Document-Lists you will find a built-in services in the WmPublic Folder.
For String-Lists i would use a Java-Service for Sorting.
Logic behind Sorting in webMethods is same as all other languages. You need LOOP to iterate every string in stringList, BRANCH to compare the two number and then map to the compare result to new StringList.
What format do you have the numbers in? Are they in a flat file or in a string list etc.
How can I get the value of important id and ValueType?
I have tried using web_save_param_regexp (but unfortunately I don't fully understand how the function works).
I have also tried using web_save_param (with the help of offset and length).
unfortunately once again I cannot get the accurate value some values change in length specially when the total amount values dynamically changes per run.
<important id=\"insertsomevalueshere\" record=\"1\" nucTotal=\"NUC609.40\"><total amount=\"68.75\" currency=\"USD\"/><total amount=\"609.40\" currency=\"USD\"/><out avgsomecost=\"540.65\" ValueType=\"insertsomevalueshere\" containsawesomeness=\"1\" Score=\"-97961\" somedatatype=\"1\" typeofData=\"VAL\" web=\"1\">
Put these lines of code before the line of code which does your web request:
web_reg_save_param_regexp("ParamName=importantid","Regexp=<important id=\\\"(.*?)\\\"",LAST);
web_reg_save_param_regexp("ParamName=ValueType","Regexp= ValueType=\\\"(.*?)\\\"",LAST);
You will then have two stored parameters 'importantid' and 'ValueType'
Dynamic number of elements to correlate? Your path for resubmission is through web_custom_request(). You will need to build the string you need dynamically with the name:value pairs for all of the data which needs to be included.
This path will place a premium on your string manipulation skills in the language of the tool. The default path is through C, but you have other language options if your skills are more refined in another language.
I am trying to create a data field using Mockaroo and they say they have Ruby support but I know nothing about Ruby so I am trying to find out how to do a field that will randomly choose between the 3 options.
now() or
now()+days(-1) or
now()+days(-2) or
now()+days(-3)
Idea 1
I was initially thinking something using random like now()+days(this.rand(-3))
Idea 2
I also thought of using or logic like now() or now()+days(-3) or etc...
This answer may end up being different than a typical ruby solution since Mockaroo has their own little API to use too... Appreciate any help that can be given.
Turns out I had to use the random function first and pass in min and max date parameters.
random(now()+days(2), now()+days(-3))
Need to get difference between 2 dateTime payload objects as duration format for using on HT expiration value. (i.e. returned as PT2055M or P1DT10H15M)
Actually checked functions on that link: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/dev.1111/e10224/bp_appx_functs.htm#autoId13
And i tried to solve the issue by creating duration such as
concat("P", xp20:year-from-dateTime(string(bpmn:getDataObject('myPayloadDate'))) - xp20:year-from-dateTime(xp20:current-dateTime()) ,"Y", xp20:month-from-dateTime(string(bpmn:getDataObject('myPayloadDate'))) - xp20:month-from-dateTime(xp20:current-dateTime()),"M", xp20:day-from-dateTime(string(bpmn:getDataObject('myPayloadDate'))) - xp20:day-from-dateTime(xp20:current-dateTime()),"DT", xp20:hour-from-dateTime(string(bpmn:getDataObject('myPayloadDate'))) - xp20:hour-from-dateTime(xp20:current-dateTime()),"H",xp20:minute-from-dateTime(string(bpmn:getDataObject('myPayloadDate'))) - xp20:minute-from-dateTime(xp20:current-dateTime()),"M")
But realized that this approach interests with just only seperate values not whole values as expected.
I could not find the right composition of functions to solve.
Could you plz guide?
Assuming you have an XPath 2.0 processor, just use the subtraction operator. For example
current-date() - xs:date('2001-03-04')
gives
P4744D
(You said "dates" but your examples look more like dateTime's. The subtraction operator will work with either.)
I have a list of objects that are returned as a sequence, I would like to retrieve the keys of each object so as to be able to display the object correctly. At the moment I try data?first?keys which seems to get something like the queries that return the objects (Not sure how to explain that last sentence either but img below shows what I'm trying to explain).
The objects amount of objects returned are correct (7) but displaying the keys for each object is my aim. The macro that attempts this is here (from the apache ofbiz development book chapter 8).
Seems like it my sequence is a list of hashes and as explained by Daniel Dekany this post:
The original problem is that, someHash[key] expects a
string as key. Because, the hash type of FTL, by definition, maps
string keys to arbitrary values. It's not the same as Java's Map.
(Note that to further complicate the matters, in FTL
someSequenceOrString[index] expects an integer index. So, the [] thing
is used for that too.) Now someBeanWrappedMap(key) has technically
nothing to do with all the []-s, it's just a method call, so it
accepts all kind of keys. If you have a Map with non-string keys, you
must use that.
Thanks D Dekany if you're on stack, this ended my half day frustration with the ftl template.
