I have tried every single thing to perform dragAndDrop using webdriverio but nothing works. I have also posted a question in the webdriverio gitter but no response. below posted code is one of the ways I tried and its supposed to work but it just doesn't!
` await this.driver.moveToObject(source);
await sleep(2000);
await this.driver.buttonDown(0);
await sleep(2000);
await this.driver.moveToObject(destination);
await sleep(2000);
await this.driver.buttonUp(0);`
I'm not sure what properties are on the source and destination objects you are using but here is an example of how I was able to get it to work using the same commands you are trying.
In my example I have a table with columns that can be re-ordered by dragging and dropping them wherever I want them to be. First I get the two column headers I want to switch
let docIdHeader = browser.element('div[colid="documentid1"]');
let pageCountHeader = browser.element('div[colid="_PAGE_COUNT1"]');
If I log these objects out to the console I can see the properties stored in them.
> docIdHeader
{ sessionId: 'e35ae3e81f1bcf95bbc09f120bfb36ae',
value:
{ ELEMENT: '0.3568346822568915-1',
'element-6066-11e4-a52e-4f735466cecf': '0.3568346822568915-1' },
selector: 'div[colid="documentid1"]',
_status: 0 }
> pageCountHeader
{ sessionId: 'e35ae3e81f1bcf95bbc09f120bfb36ae',
value:
{ ELEMENT: '0.3568346822568915-2',
'element-6066-11e4-a52e-4f735466cecf': '0.3568346822568915-2' },
selector: 'div[colid="_PAGE_COUNT1"]',
_status: 0 }
Now using the same technique you are using and the selector property off of these objects I can get it to work in two ways.
browser.dragAndDrop(docIdHeader.selector, pageCountHeader.selector);
Or
browser.moveToObject(docIdHeader.selector)
browser.buttonDown(0)
browser.moveToObject(pageCountHeader.selector)
browser.buttonUp(0)
I ran this in the REPL interface so I know it works as I could see each step being executed after I sent the commands. If you are not familiar with how to use the REPL I highly recommend learning. You can play around with commands in the console until you figure something out and then add those commands to your tests.
Also, as I stated in my comments above. dragAndDrop() and moveToObject() are going to be deprecated soon and you will likely see a lot of warnings about it when you use these. The correct way to implement a drag and drop action going forward is to use browser.actions(). Unfortunately, I don't have an example of how to do it that way as I haven't played with it yet. If no one provides an example by tonight I will try to get one together for you.
Even I faced this issue wherein the cursor doesn't move to the destination object after buttonDown and using moveToObject twice worked for me.
await this.driver.moveToObject(source);
await this.driver.buttonDown(0);
await this.driver.moveToObject(destination);
await this.driver.moveToObject(destination);
await this.driver.buttonUp(0);

I'm relatively new to using WebDriverJS and trying out a simple script to begin with.
However, am facing a lot of issues and did not find any resources that were helpful.
Scenario being Tested:
Launch browser
Navigate to google.com
Capture Title of the page
Add a wait statement (driver.sleep)
Enter some text in Search box
Here is the code snippet:
var webdriver = require('selenium-webdriver'),
By = webdriver.By,
until = webdriver.until;
var driver = new webdriver.Builder().forBrowser('chrome').build();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
driver.getTitle().then(function(title) {
console.log("Title is: " + title);
});
console.log('Before sleep');
driver.sleep(10000);
console.log('After sleep');
driver.findElement(By.name('q')).sendKeys("Hello");
Here is the output:
Before sleep
After sleep
DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:52449/devtools/browser/aea4d9eb-20ee-4f10-b53f-c2003c751796
Title is:
As can be seen, it is a very straight forward scenario. However none of it is working as expected.
Below are my queries/ observations:
console.log for Before/ After sleep is executed as the very first statement even before browser is launched whereas it is not clearly the intention.
Title is returned an empty String. No value printed.
driver.sleep() never waited for the specified duration. All commands got immediately executed. How to make driver hard wait when driver.sleep is not working?
Tried adding implicit wait, however that resulted in error as well.
What are the best practices to be followed?
I did not find very many helpful webdriver javascript resources and it is not clear how to proceed.
Any guidance is appreciated. TIA.!
I referred the documentation as well and similar steps are given there. Not sure if there is some issue from my end. https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/WebDriverJs
Assuming that you example is written in JavaScript and runs on Node.js, it looks to be as if you would miss all the waiting for asynchronous functions to have finished processing. Please be aware that most functions return a promise and you must wait for the promise to be resolved.
Consider the following example code:
const {Builder, By, Key, until} = require('selenium-webdriver');
(async function example() {
let driver = await new Builder().forBrowser('firefox').build();
try {
await driver.get('http://www.google.com/ncr');
await driver.findElement(By.name('q')).sendKeys('webdriver', Key.RETURN);
await driver.wait(until.titleIs('webdriver - Google Search'), 1000);
} finally {
await driver.quit();
}
})();
I'm currently using something like this:
gulp.task('js', gulp.series('js-a', 'js-b', 'js-c'));
The task js-c requieres js-a and js-b to be executed first and to generate 2 files than then I combine in js-c.
However, no matter if I use gup-series, the function js-c gets executed before the two files from the previous two tasks are created.
How can I tell gulp series to wait for those?
I've read other related issues but they tend to rely on external scripts to accomplish this.
I manually managed to fix this by adding a setTimeout on js-b, but seems like a hacky solution.
Is there any proper way to accomplish this with gulp.series?
To put you in context, the task js-a looks like this:
var gp_concat = require('gulp-concat');
gulp.task('js-a', function(done) {
gulp.src([
'file1.js',
'file2.js'
])
.pipe(gp_concat('tmp.js'))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./'));
done();
});
And I am now forced to use a timeout to fix this issue:
setTimeout(function(){
done();
}, 500);
done() shouldn't be used in this case and the task should return the stream (see here). Please try this:
var gp_concat = require('gulp-concat');
gulp.task('js-a', function() {
return gulp.src([
'file1.js',
'file2.js'
])
.pipe(gp_concat('tmp.js'))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./'));
});
I don't quite get the idea behind enquire.js' "setup" handler.
Case:
I want to load content through ajax once when you're not in a small viewport (lt 600px).
Naturally I would do enquire.register('(min-width: 600px)', { setup: myFunction });.
Problem:
Now I tested this multiple times but the setup handler also gets fired when you're in a small screen, which totally eliminates the benefit of the setup handler imo, because you would want to only load the ajax content once you enter a viewport bigger than 600px, wouldn't you?
See example jsfiddle.
Conclusion:
So actually I wouldn't even need the setup handler because I simply could load the content outside the enquire register and would have the same effect. (Which of course isn't what I want...)
Can someone tell me if I just misunderstood the purpose of setup or is there something I'm missing?
Combine with the deferSetup flag to defer the setup callback until the first match. This example illustrates the feature:
enquire.register(someMediaQuery, {
setup : function() {
console.log("setup");
},
deferSetup : true,
match : function() {
console.log("match");
},
unmatch : function() {
console.log("unmatch");
}
});
You can see a working example here: http://wicky.nillia.ms/enquire.js/examples/defer-setup/
This was originally posted on discuss.emberjs.com. See:
http://discuss.emberjs.com/t/what-is-the-proper-use-of-store-filter-store-find-for-infinite-scrolling/3798/2
but that site seems to get worse and worse as far as quality of content these days so I'm hoping StackOverflow can rescue me.
Intent: Build a page in ember with ember-data implementing infinite scrolling.
Background Knowledge: Based on the emberjs.com api docs on ember-data, specifically the store.filter and store.find methods ( see: http://emberjs.com/api/data/classes/DS.Store.html#method_filter ) I should be able to set the model hook of a route to the promise of a store filter operation. The response of the promise should be a filtered record array which is a an array of items from the store filtered by a filter function which is suppose to be constantly updated whenever new items are pushed into the store. By combining this with the store.find method which will push items into the store, the filteredRecordArray should automatically update with the new items thus updating the model and resulting in new items showing on the page.
For instance, assume we have a Questions Route, Controller and a model of type Question.
App.QuestionsRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
model: function (urlParams) {
return this.get('store').filter('question', function (q) {
return true;
});
}
});
Then we have a controller with some method that will call store.find, this could be triggered by some event/action whether it be detecting scroll events or the user explicitly clicking to load more, regardless this method would be called to load more questions.
Example:
App.QuestionsController = Ember.ArrayController.extend({
...
loadMore: function (offset) {
return this.get('store').find('question', { skip: currentOffset});
}
...
});
And the template to render the items:
...
{{#each question in controller}}
{{question.title}}
{{/each}}
...
Notice, that with this method we do NOT have to add a function to the store.find promise which explicitly calls this.get('model').pushObjects(questions); In fact, trying to do that once you have already returned a filter record array to the model does not work. Either we manage the content of the model manually, or we let ember-data do the work and I would very much like to let Ember-data do the work.
This is is a very clean API; however, it does not seem to work they way I've written it. Based on the documentation I cannot see anything wrong.
Using the Ember-Inspector tool from chrome I can see that the new questions from the second find call are loaded into the store under the 'question' type but the page does not refresh until I change routes and come back. It seems like the is simply a problem with observers, which made me think that this would be a bug in Ember-Data, but I didn't want to jump to conclusions like that until I asked to see if I'm using Ember-Data as intended.
If someone doesn't know exactly what is wrong but knows how to use store.push/pushMany to recreate this scenario in a jsbin that would also help too. I'm just not familiar with how to use the lower level methods on the store.
Help is much appreciated.
I just made this pattern work for myself, but in the "traditional" way, i.e. without using store.filter().
I managed the "loadMore" part in the router itself :
actions: {
loadMore: function () {
var model = this.controller.get('model'), route = this;
if (!this.get('loading')) {
this.set('loading', true);
this.store.find('question', {offset: model.get('length')}).then(function (records) {
model.addObjects(records);
route.set('loading', false);
});
}
}
}
Since you already tried the traditional way (from what I see in your post on discuss), it seems that the key part is to use addObjects() instead of pushObjects() as you did.
For the records, here is the relevant part of my view to trigger the loadMore action:
didInsertElement: function() {
var controller = this.get('controller');
$(window).on('scroll', function() {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > $(document).height() - ($(window).height()*2)) {
controller.send('loadMore');
}
});
},
willDestroyElement: function() {
$(window).off('scroll');
}
I am now looking to move the loading property to the controller so that I get a nice loader for the user.
I've been trying to send data from my background page to a content script in my chrome extension. i can't seem to get it to work. I've read a few posts online but they're not really clear and seem quite high level. I've got managed to get the oauth working using the Oauth contacts example on the Chrome samples. The authentication works, i can get the data and display it in an html page by opening a new tab.
I want to send this data to a content script.
i'm having a lot of trouble with this and would really appreciate if someone could outline the explicit steps you need to follow to send data from a bg page to a content script or even better some code. Any takers?
the code for my background page is below (i've excluded the oauth paramaeters and other )
` function onContacts(text, xhr) {
contacts = [];
var data = JSON.parse(text);
var realdata = data.contacts;
for (var i = 0, person; person = realdata.person[i]; i++) {
var contact = {
'name' : person['name'],
'emails' : person['email']
};
contacts.push(contact); //this array "contacts" is read by the
contacts.html page when opened in a new tab
}
chrome.tabs.create({ 'url' : 'contacts.html'}); sending data to new tab
//chrome.tabs.executeScript(null,{file: "contentscript.js"});
may be this may work?
};
function getContacts() {
oauth.authorize(function() {
console.log("on authorize");
setIcon();
var url = "http://mydataurl/";
oauth.sendSignedRequest(url, onContacts);
});
};
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(getContacts);`
As i'm not quite sure how to get the data into the content script i wont bother posting the multiple versions of my failed content scripts. if I could just get a sample on how to request the "contacts" array from my content script, and how to send the data from the bg page, that would be great!
You have two options getting the data into the content script:
Using Tab API:
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/tabs.html#method-executeScript
Using Messaging:
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/messaging.html
Using Tab API
I usually use this approach when my extension will just be used once in a while, for example, setting the image as my desktop wallpaper. People don't set a wallpaper every second, or every minute. They usually do it once a week or even day. So I just inject a content script to that page. It is pretty easy to do so, you can either do it by file or code as explained in the documentation:
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tab.id, {file: 'inject_this.js'}, function() {
console.log('Successfully injected script into the page');
});
Using Messaging
If you are constantly need information from your websites, it would be better to use messaging. There are two types of messaging, Long-lived and Single-requests. Your content script (that you define in the manifest) can listen for extension requests:
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
if (request.method == 'ping')
sendResponse({ data: 'pong' });
else
sendResponse({});
});
And your background page could send a message to that content script through messaging. As shown below, it will get the currently selected tab and send a request to that page.
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab) {
chrome.tabs.sendRequest(tab.id, {method: 'ping'}, function(response) {
console.log(response.data);
});
});
Depends on your extension which method to use. I have used both. For an extension that will be used like every second, every time, I use Messaging (Long-Lived). For an extension that will not be used every time, then you don't need the content script in every single page, you can just use the Tab API executeScript because it will just inject a content script whenever you need to.
Hope that helps! Do a search on Stackoverflow, there are many answers to content scripts and background pages.
To follow on Mohamed's point.
If you want to pass data from the background script to the content script at initialisation, you can generate another simple script that contains only JSON and execute it beforehand.
Is that what you are looking for?
Otherwise, you will need to use the message passing interface
In the background page:
// Subscribe to onVisited event, so that injectSite() is called once at every pageload.
chrome.history.onVisited.addListener(injectSite);
function injectSite(data) {
// get custom configuration for this URL in the background page.
var site_conf = getSiteConfiguration(data.url);
if (site_conf)
{
chrome.tabs.executeScript({ code: 'PARAMS = ' + JSON.stringify(site_conf) + ';' });
chrome.tabs.executeScript({ file: 'site_injection.js' });
}
}
In the content script page (site_injection.js)
// read config directly from background
console.log(PARAM.whatever);
I thought I'd update this answer for current and future readers.
According to the Chrome API, chrome.extension.onRequest is "[d]eprecated since Chrome 33. Please use runtime.onMessage."
See this tutorial from the Chrome API for code examples on the messaging API.
Also, there are similar (newer) SO posts, such as this one, which are more relevant for the time being.
