I have written 9 routines in the last few weeks in Powershell for Domino, they all appear to do what I need except 1!
This is the RegisterNewUser method, which does everything except the Email address. If I setup a user via Domino Administrator, I get everything including the email address ie internal address that is 'bob patz/smallhome'.
If I use my code this uses the registration process but all I end up with is the domain part of the internal email address '#smallhome'.
Does anyone know how to correct this? I don't think powershell uses the #formula language in any form, so I assume i somehow need to find the right column in a document or database and append the fullname in there somehow.
Is there anyone out there who can help in anyway?
regards
Mark
<#TOP TIP: THIS MUST RUN UNDER POWERSHELL (X86), ELSE IT WILL NOT WORK!!
This Powershell Function was created in March 2020 by (myself) Mark Baker as 'a' just to see if I can de-mystify
some of the Domino Database stucture, after running short bits of code and using Get-Member on some parts
of it and looking at online code snippets and reading some of the online info from IBM I have come up with
the function below to Create a New Lotus Notes User.
#
Original Code: 31/03/2020 by MBaker
A lot of work testing and diagnosing the different settings and values EVENTUALLY lead me to getting this working,
as at 08/04/2020 I just need to work out the settings for setting the correct email address per person.
#
This is how to use this function:
New-DominoUserRegistration "hazell" "C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Notes\Data\ids\people\dhazell.id" "CN=Dom-01/O=Smallhome"
"Daniel" "" "swindon" "Work" "comment" "mail\dhazell" " " "password" 176
"dhazell"
Main use of this function is to connect to an IBM Domino Server and Create a New lotus notes user.

I now have an answer for this, this came from someone else on another board: the line [parameter(Position=9,Mandatory=$true,ValueFromPipeline=$True)][string]$fwddomain,
Needed to have [AllowEmptyString()] inserted before [string]$fwddomain, and the input field was " " and needed to be "". It appears the $fwddomain has an impact on the internal email address name ie: 'bob patz/smallhome'.
I have tested this and it shows up in the people view and also I can now send emails to other users and ones self!
Problem solved.

For context, I'm someone with zero experience in Ruby - I just asked my Senior Dev to copy-paste me some of his Ruby code so I could try to work with some APIs that he ended up putting off because he was too busy.
So I'm using an API wrapper called zoho_hub, used as a wrapper for Zoho APIs (https://github.com/rikas/zoho_hub/blob/master/README.md).
My IDE is VSCode.
I execute the entire length of the code, and I'm faced with this:
[Done] exited with code=0 in 1.26 seconds
The API is supposed to return a paginated list of records, but I don't see anything outputted in VSCode, despite the fact that no error is being reflected. The last 2 lines of my code are:
ZohoHub.connection.get 'Leads'
p "testing"
I use the dummy string "testing" to make sure that it's being executed up till the very end, and it does get printed.
This has been baffling me for hours now - is my response actually being outputted somewhere, and I just can't see it??
Ruby does not print anything unless you tell it to. For debugging there is a pretty printing method available called pp, which is decent for trying to print structured data.
In this case, if you want to output the records that your get method returns, you would do:
pp ZohoHub.connection.get 'Leads'
To get the next page you can look at the source code, and you will see the get request has an additional Hash parameter.
def get(path, params = {})
Then you have to read the Zoho API documentation for get, and you will see that the page is requested using the page param.
Therefore we can finally piece it together:
pp ZohoHub.connection.get('Leads', page: NNN)
Where NNN is the number of the page you want to request.
I've looked at https://www.rubydoc.info/github/google/google-api-ruby-client/Google/Apis/GmailV1/ModifyThreadRequest and the examples https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/labels/update for Python and JS but can't figure out how to format the request properly in ruby.
I'm trying:
service.modify_thread('me',thread_id,{'add_label_ids'=>['UNREAD']})
and various other permutations of the object but can't get anything other than Google::Apis::ClientError: invalidArgument: No label add or removes specified in response.
Any help appreciated
modify_thread expects a Google::Apis::GmailV1::ModifyThreadRequest object as third argument according to the documentation.
In the source of the constructor of ModifyThreadRequest you can see that it looks for a key :add_label_ids in its arguments.
So if modify_thread creates the ModifyThreadRequest object itself then
service.modify_thread('me',thread_id, add_label_ids: ['UNREAD'])
should work.
If that fails I would try
mtr = Google::Apis::GmailV1::ModifyThreadRequest.new(add_label_ids: ['UNREAD'])
service.modify_thread('me', thread_id, mtr)
I'm modifying a ruby gem.
Currently returning a git log object between 2 revision numbers correctly:
def log(repo, prev_rev, this_rev)
repo.log.between(prev_rev, this_rev)
end
And storing the commit message using:
gitlog_item.each do |commit|
#message = commit.message
My question is what other information is available from this object? Specifically I'm looking for something that can identify the commit uniquely such as an ID, or date & time.
If you want to see the entirety of what your gitlog_item contains, you can simply inspect it, like so:
puts gitlog_item.inspect
That'll output the entire object to your console, so you can see everything that's available to you in that object.
This should be the documentation you are looking for.
Methods sha and committer_data seems to do for you.
I know I can easily get messages inside
[CustomMessages]
AdditionalIcons=blablabla
using this code:
ExpandConstant('{cm:AdditionalIcons}');
which gets the AdditionalIcons string message. However, how can I get messages inside this?
[Messages]
ButtonNext=huhu
ButtonInstall=bubu
What I need is to get the ButtonNext, ButtonInstall and other values, and it is NOT possible to get those values using code like this:
ExpandConstant('{cm:ButtonNext}');
How can I query those values?

Try
SetupMessage(msgButtonNext);
In general, the name of the constant to use (in this case msgButtonNext) is msg + the name of the message (string concatination).
