I'm playing in Elm, and whenever I use elm make I get an error from Windows Script Host:
The error states that there is an error in the build elm.js file. And when I look at the given line, it's the following:
return {
keys: keys, // A hash of key name to index
free: free, // An array of unkeyed item indices
} // line 10547
So I'm guessing it's bitching about the unneeded , on line 10546: free: free,.
But now my question is, why is Windows Script Host doing stuff with my build elm.js file anyway, and how can I fix it?
I already tried disabling Windows Script Host, but then I just get an error stating that it doesn't allow script to be run.
Since you have a file in that directory called elm.js, the Windows Command Line tries executing that when you type elm make. It thinks you are intending this: elm.js make.
You can get around this in a few ways:
Change the name of the output file from elm.js to something else
Move the generated elm.js file to a subdirectory
Run elm-make from the command line instead of elm make
Use another shell like Powershell, Git Bash, or Cygwin

I can't get the output of a script run through singularity.
I have a python script, at the end of which the output is saved with:
...
with open('saveOut.pkl','wb') as myFile:
pickle.dump(myTable,myFile)
I want to run this script with singularity on a distant machine. Since I am learning singularity, I made a 'sand box' debian image (not compiled into a single 'img' file yet) in the directory /tmp/debian; in this image I copied the python script test.py in /usr/src and I run it with the command:
sudo singularity exec /tmp/debian python3.5 /usr/src/test.py
The problem:
It works well as long as I have only displayed results. with the pickle example described above, I don't get any saveOut.pkl file anywhere: this file is just not written anywhere but I don't see any message. I tried to write an explicit path in the python script. For instance /usr/src/saveOut.pkl, but this is the same.
How could I write a result ?
What was your expected result i.e. in which directory did you expect
to find the output file?
I expect a file saveOutput.pkl anywhere, in the container or not, I don't care the location. Currently I don't get it at all: neither in the container's current directory, nor in the container's /usr/src/, nor on the host, nor anywhere.
Did you look for it on the host or in the container?
both, I don't see it anywhere
What's happening here is that your python script is writing the pickle file to its current location (/usr/src/ in the container). Then, since the output from your script is not persistent (due to the sandbox not being writable on execution), it gets deleted at the end of the run.
I believe you could change your script:
with open('/opt/saveOut.pkl','wb') as myFile:
pickle.dump(myTable,myFile)
and then bind the local directory and get the output you're looking for:
sudo singularity exec -B ./:/opt /tmp/debian python3.5 /usr/src/test.py
This worked for me, anyway.
I'm trying to run this code from : https://github.com/pnnl/safekit ,using cmd on windows 10, I already installed python.
when I type the command:
tar -xjvf data_examples.tar.bz2
I keep getting the error:
tar: Error opening archive: Can't initialize filter; unable to run
program "bzip2 -d"
I have tried to download bzip2 through easy-7 zip and GnuWin32 , but it didn't work.
Can any one help me?
P.S.: I did search for the same problem before posting mine.
If you run the command in git bash instead of cmd it should work.
I've run into the same problem! My non-elegant solution so far has been to force Windows's tar.exe to use the bzip2.exe provided with my Windows Git installation. The trick is to add to your user PATH the directory where bzip2.exe is located, in my case:
C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin
So, right now my PATH looks like:
Path=%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin
Notice that I've only touched the user environment PATH, not the system PATH, and I've appended the new directory. As always, touching your PATH can be a little bit dangerous, proceed with care. If someone has a better solution, I'd be glad to hear it.
Note: I tried copying the bzip2.exe to a separate directory, but this didn't work (I presume because bzip2.exe couldn't find some dependencies).
I have to automate a test case in which a list in a particular dashboard is created. We decided to use PhantomJS headless browser. Since I am new to it, I tried creating test myself. Following are the steps I followed just to open the target website.
Created directory phantoms
cd phantoms and installed phantom module using command npm install phantom --save
Created file createlist.js:
createlist.js contents:
var phantom = require('phantom');
var page = require('webpage');
page.open('http://facebook.com', function(status) {
console.log("Status: " + status);
if(status === "success") {
page.render('example.png');
}
phantom.exit();
});
When i execute command node create_list.js, I am getting the following error:
page.open('interact2.responsys.net/interact/jsp/jindex.jsp', function(st atus) { ^ TypeError: page.open is not a function at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\shilshet\New folder\phantom\create_list.js:3 :6) at Module._compile (module.js:413:34)
If I try to execute command like
phantomjs C:/Users/shilshet/New folder/phantom/create_list.js
I am getting this error
bash: phantomjs: command not found
Note: I am using cygwin to execute commands
What I am going wrong? I installed phantomjs module also in the same folder as my node.js.
Could anyone let me know apart from using headless browser, how does one create a profile list in Oracle responsys via REST API call?
While the first answer here should work, it's not the best way to accomplish what you need. The cleaner way to solve your issue is to add the location of your phantomjs executable to your PATH variable defined in a file such as ~/.bash_history.
The file may not be defined, so you may need to create the file, and then add PATH="/path/to/phantomjs/executable"
If you prefer to edit your PATH var via a GUI: Edit PATH variable via Windows GUI
The reason you need to do this, is that your system natively iterates over paths defined in the 'PATH' variable in order to determine where executable files are. Since phantomjs is not included in the PATH variable (nonexistent in the environment), and you try to run 'phantomjs', your system simply does not know which executable to call (or rather it doesn't know it exists)
The reason this is the better approach is:
You don't need to explicitly write out the path of where phantomjs is located every time you want to run it (it's just cleaner looking too)
What happens if you you call phantomjs from multiple files, and the location of where phantomjs is stored changes? If you explicitly typed phantomjs' absolute path everywhere, then you need to change EVERY place you typed it! Nightmare! With this approach, you simply change it in one place; the file that defines your PATH variable
It's pretty conventional to add new file paths to your PATH env variable. You shouldn't clutter it, but it makes sense in this case to add it
For this: "Could anyone let me know apart from using headless browser, how does one create a profile list in Oracle responsys via REST API call?"... I would recommend asking a separate question. I personally don't know, but if you raise the new question, you may get support from someone who does.
Hope this helps! If you need any help whatsoever, let me know.
You mixed up two ways of running PhantomJS.
The more straightforward, more simple way is just launching PhantomJS from command line and giving it the path of a script as an argument. On Windows you would do it like this:
"C:/Users/shilshet/New folder/phantom/phantomjs.exe" "C:/Users/shilshet/New folder/phantom/create_list.js"
Note the quotes here, they're needed because there are spaces in filenames.
elm-light looks like a great plugin for elm in the LightTable editor, but I can't make it work properly on Windows. When I try to establish a connection, I get this error : Path must be a string. Received null.
Please help...
"Path must be a string" should already be fixed in elm-light-0.42
AST
Auto-completions only starts working once you have connected to an Elm project. You can force "suto.connection", through various commands (Lint, toggle docs etc). So if you hit "ctrl-d" on a symbol when you aren't connected, it will connect for you. Another option is to add the Lint command to the save operation in Light Table. Again see Useful configurations
-- https://rundis.gitbooks.io/elm-light-guide/content/chapter1.html
After opening elm file in Light Table, you can see at the status: AST not connected. That means elm-light doesn't run yet.
You have to connect manually either by running ctrl+space > ELM: Load/reload project AST or better by mapping this action to save.
To do this, run ctrl-space > Settings: User keymap. Add line [:editor.elm "ctrl-s" :save :elm-format :elm.lint] before last ] so it looks like this:
[
;; ...
[:editor.elm "ctrl-s" :save :elm-format :elm.lint]
]
Above mapping to ctrl-s will also format and lint your file.
One more thing. If you type for example import Dict as Dict exposing (, AST will report error. For that we need to automatic brackets close. To do that, run ctrl-space > Settings: User behaviors and add line [:editor :lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets], so that the file looks like that:
[
;; ...
[:editor :lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets]
]
Avoid spaces in the path to the elm-platform
type echo %path% in a Windows command prompt to check the Elm path
uninstall and reinstall elm in another folder if necessary
Avoid spaces in the path to LightTable
move the LightTable folder if necessary
uninstall and reinstall the elm plugin in the new location
Install elm-oracle
execute npm install elm-oracle in a Windows command prompt to get auto-complete to work.
Install elm-format
Configure keymaps
use ctrl- (Windows) instead of cmd (iOS) in the keychords
I'm writing a script for Illustrator CS6 in ExtendScript. At the end of my script, I want to spawn a task (a second script, in Ruby) using File.execute(). However, it's not working. And I'm at a loss as how to debug the problem -- how can I figure out why this isn't working?
Here's the end of my ExtendScript file:
// Do a bunch of other work, then:
var rubyFile = new File(scriptFolder + 'BuildHtmlWalkthrough.rb');
alert(rubyFile.exists);
var result = rubyFile.execute();
alert(result);
Both rubyFile.exists and result are always true, indicating that the script launched OK. But the script does not appear to run, at all. I've tried the following diagnostics:
The Ruby script does successfully run from the command line. The script's permissions are -rwxr-xr-x
I added a call to system("touch /blah/blah/blah") as the very first line of the Ruby script. The file does not get touched.
I thought maybe the ExtendScript process was terminating before the Ruby script could run, so I added a long for loop after rubyFile.execute(). Spinning for > 30 seconds did not help.
What can I do to debug, or solve, this problem?
I'm on MacOS X v10.9.1. And for reference, this is the documentation for File.execute():
File.execute (): Boolean
Core JavaScript Classes
Executes or opens
this file using the appropriate application, as if it had been
double-clicked in a file browser. You can use this method to run
scripts, launch applications, and so on. Returns true immediately if
the application launch was successful.
It's probably doing the "opens this file using the appropriate application" instead of executing, and returns true because the file successfully opens (or is already open in its associated app). If I have a python script and do
f= new File("~/Documents/misc_scripts/getpixelrgb.py");
f.execute();
, it opens it in my script editor, even if the file's execute flags are set.
I'm on OSX, btw
In After Effects, there is system.callSystem() to execute command line commands, but I'm afraid that is absent in Illustrator (I'm assuming you're doing this for Illustrator because of the tag). Are you on OSX or Windows? There are ways around this, by making an executable .app (OSX) or .exe (Win) and calling that with execute(). If I were doing this, I'm on OSX and I'd make an AppleScript app that does 'do shell script' to make the ruby system call. On Windows, it's different. One solution you might like if you're on windows: ocra, which is ruby-specific (http://ocra.rubyforge.org/). It may be possible to run a .bat file on Windows that calls the ruby script, but I'm not sure.
[edit!]
Terribly sorry for the extraneous Windows info (for someone else, I guess). Just saw your note about being on OSX. So you might want to use the AppleScript solution.
[edit again]
So, if my ruby script ("test.rb") is:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
print "Hello"
and my AppleScript is:
do shell script "cd /testing_folder/; ruby test.rb"
Then I get "Hello" returned in AppleScript, but ExtendScript will just return true.
