I create a new profile document with the following code:
Set doc = db.Createdocument()
doc.Form = "SMBPrivateProfile"
Call doc.Computewithform(True,True)
Call doc.Save(True, False)
But whenever I want to read a field by #GetProfileField i get an empty string, even if the field I want to read has a default value.
After opening & saving the document manually everything works.
Further details:
I improved an application and hit Application --> Replace Design.... The new version includes a new field within the profile document. When reading one of these new fields, the result is an empty string. When reading an 'old' field within the same document the result is the expected string.
e.g.:
MessageBox([OK];"Title"; #GetProfileField("SMBPrivateProfile"; "OLD_FIELD"; #ThisName))
--> Will result in: "This is a fancy old default value"
MessageBox([OK];"Title"; #GetProfileField("SMBPrivateProfile"; "NEW_FIELD"; #ThisName))
--> Will result in: "" (instead of "This is a fancy new default value")
That's not a profile document. To create profile document use:
db.GetProfileDocument("SMBPrivateProfile");
You can also add a second parameter for a unique key in addition to profile name.
Also consider if you really want to use profile documents. They are heavily cached and not visible in any views.
If I'm reading you right, it appears that you have updated a form and added a new field with a default value formula. You are then reading an existing document. When you do this, the new field that you added to the form does not yet exist. New fields and formulas aren't applied to existing documents until you do something to force them to be applied.
If it's a regular document (as your original code indicated), you can just open the document in the Notes client, edit, and re-save it. That will create the NEW_FIELD and give it its value. If there are lots of these documents, you could write a simple formula agent to do this via #Command([ToolsRefreshAllDocs]) or #Command( [ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs]).
If it is a profile document (as per the responce chain to #Panu's anser), then after you do the replace design you will have to write an agent to open the existing profile document using db.getProfileDocument use doc.ReplaceItemValue("NEW_FIELD";"new value").

I am writing a simple App Inventor program to populate a Covid-19 school health check page. I am stuck on selecting a school. Normally you type in a school name, the page finds string matches and you select from the list of string matched school. I am able to simply set the field manually but the rest of the form doesn't update. I know I must trigger an update but I cannot make head or tails of how this page works.

From the Chrome console I can do the following:
x = document.getElementsByClassName("k-textbox")
x[1].value = "Horace"
From the picture you can see the text was updated to "Horace" but the results have not updated. What should I do to force an update so the results list shows proper matches? Also, how do I query the matching results so I can confirm that my input was explicit enough to return a single match? FYI, this form entry page will be hidden to the user.
You can get the kendoDropDownList, call the read method from it's dataSource, and pass the locationName value of what you want. This won't set the text in the textbox, but it will filter your list down like you want.
To test, click on the input, open your console, and run the following:
$('#Location').data('kendoDropDownList').dataSource.read({ locationName: 'horace' })
I am facing issues in performing certain actions based on the value in the excel file cell data.
Actions like if value is "NORMAL" then click Container type = Normal (radio button)
Similarly the Unit Container Value
Following is my code:
I am getting this error while performing action .WebElement("Container_Type_Normal").Click
Your error is because you can't start a line with . unless your within a with - and i can't see a with in your function. (i also don't recommend using a with as the can cause needless confusion)
The .webelement object is a catch-all type of object that is the child of other web objects or .page. You need this to be a full and valid path to the object, by this i mean start with browser().page().
You have a couple of options:
You can either make this a full path to your object based on the object repository:
Browser("<<OR Browser name>>").Page("<<OR Page name>>").WebElement("<<Your webelement name>>".click
For this, look at your OR and insert your names.
Or, option 2, you can use descriptive programming:
Browser("CreationTime:=0").Page("index:=0").WebElement("text:=" & fieldValue,"index:=0").click
That will take the browser that was created first (Creation time 0), the only page it has and the first (index 0) web element that contains your text (text is field value).
I'm assuming that you only have one browser, and that the first element that contains the text you want is what you want to click. You may need to add more layers too this or
A good approach is to mirror what is OR or use the object spy to ensure these properties are correct.
I found a major problem with the architecture of my Document based app.
Basically a store the model (a simple string) in a global variable, every time the text in field changes. I have the document save this string as it's data, and restore re-opened files using this data.
Now, the major problem that I now see is that if I restore any saved file, I populate the global variable from the document in the documents "readFromData" function (works).
But if I create a new document, "readFromData" is never called, so I have no way to set the global string to "", and thus my new documents global variable is still populated with the last saved string. (I use this to put the string back into the text view on load.
So as a simple workaround, I would need to be able to use a function that is automatically called and only ever called by the creation of a new document, to set my global variable back to "".
I can not find such a function I can override. Does one exist..?
I am not sure I understand what you are trying to do.
You could use this NSDocument initializer:
/* Initialize a new empty document of a specified type,
and return it if successful.
…
You can override this method to perform initialization that
must be done when creating new documents but should not be done
when opening existing documents.
*/
- (instancetype)initWithType:(NSString *)typeName error:(NSError **)outError;
This is invoked exactly once per document at the initial creation of the document. It will not be invoked when a document is opened after being saved to disk.
I'm working on creating a custom report report page in CQ5. I've got my reportbase and columnbase components set up correctly, by following the steps listed here. I am able to, for instance, pick up all the templates that are available, by setting the property nodeTypes to cq:Template
I want to add a constraint to it, say for example pick up templates whose jcr:title is foo. I created a node under querybuilder called propertyConstraints and added my constraints in the form of nodes below it, as describedhere. However, this does not work for me at all.
What is the correct way to add constraints to the querybuildernode? Has anyone tried this?
Also, once I get this working correctly, can I extend this example to return pages of a specific template?
Have you looked into the QueryBuilder API? Adobe's documentation discusses how to match 1 or more property values.
Create a node propertyConstraints under queryBuilder of type nt:unstructured
create another node under propertyConstraints with any name.
Add properties to this node :
name String jcr:title
value String foo
I have a Search input box and an agent which exports the view. If I click export (not typing anything in the Search input box) it will all documents in the view. But for example I input "ABC" in the input box and click Search, it will list in the view all the documents which is under "ABC" but when I clicked export, it doesn't export the view.
I want to know how to access the filtered view which corresponds to the value in the Search input box so I can export the filtered documents in the view.
Thanks.
Here is part of the whole agent code:
Redim colnumbers (0 To 100) As Integer
Set db=session.currentdatabase
Set doc=session.DocumentContext
expview=Strright(doc.query_string_decoded(0),"expview=")
Dim query As String
query = Strleft(Strright(doc.query_string_decoded(0),"query="),"&expview=")
'Print query + expview
filename="Excel "+db.Title+" "+Format(Now, "yyyy-mmm-d hh-mm")+".xls" 'file name which will be suggested to user to save the resulting Excel file
tmp=""
If Instr(doc.query_string_decoded(0),"expview=")=0 Then ' find out if view is supplied as URL parameter to this agent
Set view = db.GetView("RPG") ' no view supplied as parameter, use your default export view
Else
'expview=StrRight(doc.query_string_decoded(0),"expview=")
If Instr(expview,"&")>0 Then expview=StrLeft(expview,"&")
Set view = db.GetView(expview) ' get the view passed as parameter to the agent
End If
If view Is Nothing Then
Print "Export Error - Export view does not exist"
Exit Sub
End If
Additional info to the question (this is something that clearly needs to be in the question itself, but Ragome does not seem to think it is important):
This is a code of an agent, that is called from a web- button with #URLOpen( .../AgentName?OpenAgent&expview=" + #Subset( #ViewTitle ; 1 ) )
The problem is: As long as the view is not filtered, it is actually a view showing in the browser. As soon as you filter a view with a search, it is a form that is displayed. This form is named $$SearchTemplateDefault or $$SearchTemplate for YourViewTitle
If you want to access the "found" documents with a backend- agent, then you need to create your own $$SearchTemplate- Form and create a field, that contains the UniversalId of every result. Then you can "hand over" the document to the agent using ses.DocumentContext.
There you read the universalids and work on the corresponding documents for your export.
Another possibility would be to hand over your searchstring and repeat the search in the backend agent using db.Search( yourQuery ) or db.FTSearch( yourQuery ) depending on the way you search.
As an answer to your question I can just say: there is NO WAY to get a view, that is filtered in the frontend (Browser) as "filtered" backend NotesView- Object in an agent.
