I am using vk.com api and I need to get all groups of city. I have found groups.search method (https://vk.com/dev/groups.search). But groups.search method require a 'q' string parameter (substring which must be part of the group name), which is bad for me, becouse the group name does not matter in this case.
I'm working with VK API for 4 years. The main thing you need to know about parsing any data from VK is that any search allow you to get just first thousand of results.
Group searching, people searching - you'll find only first 1000 items. It's fixed rule. Also there is no difference about number of found results (you can see, for example, 123456789 found groups. Scrolling opportunity will be finished as soon as you reach 1000th item)
So, basing on that fact the one decision you have is to parse all symbols in their different positions and groups as 'q' parameter so you will have to get a lot of groups. 'city_id' and 'country_id' can be found in source of element for their selecting if you need.

Good day everyone,
we are trying to have through the use of the integrations of the Apigee service of google all the rows in a bigquery table that have a certain value in a field.
this operation is quite easy to do, but when we have more than 200 lines as a result, problems arise.
The problem is that using the integration to connect to BigQuery I am not returning any listEntitiesPageToken value and not even any listEntitiesNextPageToken value
so i can't figure out how i can go about navigating the result pages
Has anyone had the same problem? What do you suggest?
In the tutorial: "https://cloud.google.com/apigee/docs/api-platform/integration/connectors-task#configure-the-connectors-task" is write : "For example, if you are expecting 1000 records in your result set, you can set the listEntitiesPageSize to 100. So when the Connectors task runs for the first time, it returns the first 100 records, the next 100 records in the second run and so on."
And there is a tip: "Use the listEntitiesPageSize parameter in conjunction with the listEntitiesPageToken parameter to navigate through the pages."
I used the tutorial to understand how to use the task for loop and I understood that I should create a "subintegration" which must be called by a "main integration" for each element present in a list / array.
But what what can i do since these tokens are empty?
This sample will give me ALL the GUIDs for HOURS (Yes over 2000 you need to page to get the rest)
htps://YOURCOMAPNY.attask.com/attask/api/v4.0/hour/search?$$LIMIT=2000&fields=ID:*
Object=Hour
field=ID:* (wildcard for all)
If I wanted to do the same thing to SCANS (ScoreCard Answer)
htps://YOURCOMAPNY.attask.com/attask/api/v4.0/scans/search?$$LIMIT=2000&fields=ID:*
Object=scans (Scorecard Answer)
Field=ID:* (Wildcard All)
I get an error:
{"error":{"class":"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException","message":"SCANS is not a top level object and can't be requested directly in internal"}}
I Can do this to pull a ton of project information and I have to parse it all such as produced by this code.
htps://YOURCOMAPNY.attask.com/attask/api/v4.0/proj/search?fields=alignmentScoreCard:,alignmentValues:,alignmentValues:scoreCardQuestion:*
And if I click thru it I can find a ID for a scans and a scoreq and if I take that scans or scoreq and attempt to pull it using the field=ID or
htps://YOURCOMPANY.attask.com/attask/api/v4.0/scans/YOURGUIDHEREXXXXXXXXX/
This again tells me:
{"error":{"class":"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException","message":"SCANS is not a top level object and can't be requested directly in internal"}}
I can pull just about anything and get a list of ID's and then manually pull those items by ID but the scores/scorecard answers/scorecard questions (Even as the API seems to indicate that I can pull this like anything else does NOT allow me to do so?
Suggestions? I know its all associated with projectIDs and such I just want to get a list of them all and work with the ones that I want on a one - one basis without having to pull the PROJ and then rummage thru to locate all the ID's associated with it (If there are one or many) Is this possible?
Thank you!
I don't think there is any workaround for this..
you have to go via projects only..
I am also searching a method for this...
I had to update scorecard answers and I had to go via projects..
I am having a problem trying to achieve the following:
I'd like to have a page with 'infinite' scrolling functionality and all the results fetched to be sorted by certain attributes. The way the code currently works is, it places the query, sorts the results, and displays them. The problem is, that once the user reaches the bottom of the page and new query is placed, the results from this query are sorted, but in its own context. That is, if you have a total of 100 results, and the first query display only 50, then they are sorted. But the next query (for the next 50) sorts the results only based on these 50 results, not based on the 100 (total results).
So, do I have to fetch all the results at once, sort them, and then apply some pagination logic to them or there's a way for MongoDB to actually have infinite scrolling (AJAX requests) with sorting applying to the results?
There's a few ways to do this with MongoDB. You can use the .skip() and .limit() commands (documented here: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Advanced+Queries#AdvancedQueries-CursorMethods) to apply pagination to the query.
Alternatively, you could add a clause to your query like: {sorted_field : {$gt : <value from last record>}}. In other words, filter out matches of the query whose sorted value is less than that of the last resulting item from the current page of results. For example, if page 1 of results returns documents A through D, then to retrieve the next page 2 you repeat the same query with the additional filter x > D.
Let me preface this by saying that I have no experience with MongoDB (though I am aware that it is a NoSQL database).
This question, however, is somewhat of a general database one (you'd probably get more responses tagging it as such). I've implemented such a feature using Cassandra (another, albiet quite different NoSQL database), however the same principles apply.
Use the sorted-by attribute of the last retrieved record, and conduct a range search based on it in the database. So, assuming your database consists of the following set of letters:
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
..and you were retrieving 2 letters at a time, you'd retrieve A, B first. When more records are needed, you'd use B to conduct a range search on the set of letters in the database. In plain English this would be something like:
Get the letters that appear after B, limit the results to 2
From a brief look at the MongoDB tutorial, it looks like you have conditional operators to help you implement this.
I've been reading the documentation at: http://code.google.com/intl/nl/apis/maps/documentation/places/#PlaceSearches
But How do I modify the Place Search Request (shown below) so that I can limit the results to specific businesses only.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=-33.8670522,151.1957362&radius=500&types=food&name=harbour&sensor=false&key=AIzaSyAiFpFd85eMtfbvmVNEYuNds5TEF9FjIPI
For example in the above code it hastypes=food&name=harbour as two of the parameters. How can I include just "bakery" and "cafe" (both are supported list types) as the types parameter and then include multiple name parameters as well.
In bigger cities it may come back with 20 or so results, but I want to limit it to a handful of businesses that I have agreements with and just show their names on the map. I don't want Starbucks to come back so I want to restrict it to just the 8-10 businesses that I have the agreements with. Their names will be stored in a database so I can easily retrieve them and pass them into the HTTP URL, but I don't know how to do multiple names and get them all to show up on the map at the same time.
Any links to tutorials that can help or your ideas and suggestions would greatly help!
You can include types "bakery" and "cafe" by modifying your request parameter types=food|bakery|cafe add more types separate by "|" operator

I want to search in multiple fields in Solr.
(In know the concept of the copy-fields and I know the (e)dismax search handler.)
So I have an orderd list of fields, I want the terms to be searched against.
1.) SKU
2.) Name
3.) Description
4.) Summary
and so on.
Now, when the query matches a term, let's say in the SKU field, I want this match and no further searches in the proceeding fields.
Only, if there are NO matches at all in the first field (SKU field), the second field (in this case "name") should be used and so on.
Is this possible with Solr?
Do I have to implement my own Lucene Search Handler for this?
Any advice is welcome!
Thank you,
Bernhard
I think your case requires executing 4 different searches. If you implement you very own SearchHandler you could avoid penalty of search result accumulation in 4 different request. Which means, you would send one query, and custom SearchHandler would execute 4 searches and prepare one result set.
If my guess is right you want to rank the results based on the order of the fields. If so then you can just use standard query like
q=sku:(query)^4 OR name:(query)^3 OR description:(query)^2 OR summary:(query)
this will rank the results by the order of the fields.
Hope is helps.
