Nifi API - Update parameter context - api

We've created a parameter context within Nifi which is allocated to several process groups. We would like to update the value of one parameter within the parameter context. Is there any option to do this via the API?

NiFi CLI from nifi-toolkit has commands for interacting with parameters, there is one for set-param:
https://github.com/apache/nifi/tree/master/nifi-toolkit/nifi-toolkit-cli/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/toolkit/cli/impl/command/nifi/params
You could use that, or look at the code to see how it uses the API.
Also, anything you can do from NiFi UI has go through the REST API. So you can always open Chrome Dev Tools, take some action in the UI like updating a parameter, and then look at which calls are made.

Getting generic page error in response, using JMeter in .NET site

When using .Net application,
and checking error logs,
getting below error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Most probably you're sending the wrong request due to missing or improperly implemented correlation
So if you have recorded a request using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder most probably there is at least one parameter there which is supposed to be dynamic, to wit
extracted from the previous response using a suitable JMeter Post-Processor
stored into a JMeter Variable
and the dynamic variable to be sent along with the request instead of recorded hard-coded value
In .NET web applications the most commonly used parameter is ViewState, however other may also be required like EventValidation
so given you properly handle these dynamic parameters you should start getting "good" responses, see ASP.NET Login Testing with JMeter for example handling of the dynamic parameters.
Also don't forget to add HTTP Cookie Manager to your test plan.

how to keep properties file outside the mule code in mulesoft

i have defined a dev.properties file for the mule flow.where i am passing the username and password required to run the flow.This password gets updated everymonth.So everymonth i have to deploy the code to the server after changing the password.Is there a way , where we can keep the properties file outside the code in mule server path.and change it when required in order to avoid redeployment.
One more idea is to completely discard any usage of a file to pickup the username and password.
Instead try using a credentials providing service, like a http requestor which is collecting the username and password from an independent API(child API/providing service).
Store it in a cache object-store of your parent API (the calling API). Keep using those values, unless the flow using them fails or if the client needs to expire them after a month. Later simply refresh them.
You can trigger your credentials providing service using a scheduler with a Cron expression having Monthly Triggers.
No, because even if the properties file is outside the application, properties are loaded on application deployment. So you would need to restart the application anyway to pick up the new values.
Instead you can create a custom module that read the properties from somewhere (a file, some service, etc), assign the value to a variable, and use the variable instead at execution time. Note that some configurations may only be set at deployment time, so variables will not be evaluated as such.
If the credentials are not exposing your application security or data, then you can move them to another config file(place it Outside mule app path). Generate a RAML file which will read & reload the credentials after application deploy/start-up, and store them in cache with timeToLive around 12 hours.
The next time when you have to change Username/Password, change in the file directly and cache will refresh it automatically after expiry time.
Actually not because all the properties secure properties needs to be there at runtime and is it is not there your application will get failed,
There is one way but it’s not best one, instead of editing code you can directly edit secure property I.e username and password in your case directly in cloudhub runtime manager properties tab.
After editing just apply changes then api will restart automatically and will deploy successfully

How to interact with network tab in chrome using karate DSL when doing web automation

I am writing UI automation script using karate DSL. In this at certain point I need to get value from network call in chrome. I want to interact with one of the webservice call in chrome devtools network tab and get the json response of that webservice.
I need this because I have to extract the value from that particular call and pass it on to the next step in my automation script.
I have seen the question related to sessionStorage(Is there a way of getting a sessionStorage using Karate DSL?) but I wonder how to do the same for network call using script command or any other way?
The first thing I would recommend is don't forget that Karate is an API testing tool at its core. Maybe all you need to do is manually make that call and get the response. You should be able to scrape the HTML and get the host and parameters needed.
That said - there's a new feature (only for Chrome) which is documented here: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/develop/karate-core#intercepting-http-requests - and is available in 0.9.6.RC2
It may not directly solve for what you want, but in a Karate mock, you should be able to set a value for use later e.g. by using a Java singleton or writing to a temp-file.
If there is something oddly more specific you need, please contribute code to Karate. Finally, there is an experimental way in which you can actually make raw requests to the Chrome DevTools session: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/develop/examples/ui-test#devtools-protocol-tips - it is for advanced users, but maybe you are one :)

Can someone clarify IOS Safari Service Worker Support

Looking at the MDN documentation IOS/Safari fully supports ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.onfetch but when you look at the FetchEvent specification it says it is not supported at all by Safari.
In particular, I would like to store some state for each client and was hoping to use the fetchEvent.clientId property of the event to index it. Of course I presume I also have access to the fetchEvent.request object otherwise I can't see how a service worker can do anything useful and I could simulate clientID from a passed in parameter in the url. But the docs don't really tell me what IOS/Safari supports and doesn't so I don't know which way to go.
Can someone please tell me precisely what does IOS/Safari pass when it calls the defined onfetch function.
I found the answer to my question by using https://jakearchibald.github.io/isserviceworkerready/demos/fetchevent/
connecting my iPad to my Macbook and debugging my iPad. I was eventually able to open the web inspector for the Service worker for that page, and the console.log showed the event passed in.
FetchEvent.clientID is present but a zero length string. As it happens I did the same thing on my (linux) Desktop using Chrome and its also a zero length string, BUT it has another parameter resultingClientId with what looks like a UUID in it. That parameter is not there in Safari.
The FetchEvent.request is there, and in particular the URL. So I can generate my own client id in the client (I am using Date.now().toString() as that is good enough for my purposes) for use in the service worker. In fact my site without a service worker was using the in the URLs I need to intercept already, so I am happy that I have a solution.

IBM Worklight - JSONStore logic to refresh data from the server and be able to work offline

currently the JSONStore API provides a load() method that says in the documentation:
This function always stores whatever it gets back from the adapter. If
the data exists, it is duplicated in the collection". This means that
if you want to avoid duplicates by calling load() on an already
populated collection, you need to empty or drop the collection before.
But if you want to be able to keep the elements you already have in
the collection in case there is no more connectivity and your
application goes for offline mode, you also need to keep track of
these existing elements.
Since the API doesn't provide a "overwrite" option that would replace the existing elements in case the call to the adapter succeeds, I'm wondering what kind of logic should be put in place in order to manage both offline availability of data and capability to refresh at any time? It is not that obvious to manage all the failure cases by nesting the JS code due to the promises...
Thanks for your advices!
One approach to achieve this:
Use enhance to create your own load method (i.e. loadAndOverwrite). You should have access to the all the variables kept inside an JSONStore instance (collection name, adapter name, adapter load procedure name, etc. -- you will probably use those variables in the invokeProcedure step below).
Call push to make sure there are no local changes.
Call invokeProcedure to get data, all the variables you need should be provided in the context of enhance.
Find if the document already exists and then remove it. Use {push: false} so JSONStore won't track that change.
Use add to add the new/updated document. Use {push: false} so JSONStore won't track that change.
Alternatively, if the document exists you can use replace to update it.
Alternatively, you can use removeCollection and call load again to refresh the data.
There's an example that shows how to use all those API calls here.
Regarding promises, read this from InfoCenter and this from HTML5Rocks. Google can provide more information.
