Part of the beauty of BrowserID is that it requires very little in the way of infrastructure on your website, you simply embed a button with some javascript and then setup a callback route to handle the post-authentication data. I would like to be able to embed the BrowserID login button at the top of all of my pages inside of the defaultLayout template (and then conditionally show/hide it based on the login state), but I currently see no way to do this. The Auth subsite works by embedding its "login page" inside of the defaultLayout template, but aside from that seems to be a complete blackbox.
I'd really like to be able to avoid either rolling my own handler for BrowserID login or redirecting the user to a completely seperate page that just has a single BrowserID login button on it if at all possible.
Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do that I'm just missing, or is my best bet really to roll my own BrowserID login code?
Looking at the source code for the Yesod.Auth.BrowserId module it looks like I might be able to do something like:
(apLogin authBrowserId) <not sure what would go here>
in order to get the login widget, but hijacking the guts of the plugin like that feels dirty.
You can use createOnClick to generate a Javascript function, and then insert whatever kind of button/link/image on your page. Just attach a click handler and have it call that function.

Wondering the best way to prevent a GTM tag from firing. I found https://rbardini.com/automating-gtm-data-layer-tests/ which tags about fetching the dataLayer variable and comparing it in an assertion, but this looks like a clumsy approach when you want to write to the dataLayer on every page.
For example, it suggests:
const getDataLayer = ClientFunction(() => window.dataLayer)
We use Google Tag Manager to automatically load tags on our website. Unfortunately one of them is CloudIQ (from PayPal) which pops up an iframe overlay offering a newsletter signup or ability to save your shopping basket. The Trigger in our GTM setup for that tag is simply 'All Pages'. When it pops up it generally blocks our test because Selectors cannot be clicked.
Our page flow is over several pages of an online shop, e.g.:
visit home page, click a product - navigates to a product page
click some options on the product page, then add to cart
go through checkout flow
So there might be many pages visited due to click actions.
There is an ability in GTM to define Variables and then use them in Exceptions for a tag, so I could prevent the CloudIQ tag firing either via a/ a global variable or b/ a dataLayer variable. However, I can't see how to elegantly get these set for each page visited during my test, such that they would exist when the GTM examines variables in order to block a Tag from being loaded. Fixture.beforeEach isn't right because it would only run once per fixture, and any data it set on the page's scope would be lost as soon as a page navigation occurs.
Anyone got experience of this sort of thing?
(The alternative of course is to detect the overlay, use switchToIframe to switch into the CloudIQ iframe and close it manually, but it pops up quite erratically and I'd prefer to simply disable the Tag altogether during tests as it's not core functionality of our website that we need to test.)
One way would be to set a custom user agent string to your test suite, create a custom javascript variable that returns the value for navigator.useragent, and make an exception trigger that blocks the tag.
Or any variation on that theme - set a cookie, use a url parameter, or if you test suite allow inject a global js variable, and check for the value in an exception trigger.
There is no need to avoid firing of events on the client side. Just mock the service routes for Google Tag Manager and CloudIQ and imitate correct responses for them.
Inside my app, I'm using the WKWebView to display a website. My goal is, when user is pressing a button on this website, I want to stop an action linked to this event and replace it with my own, natively made (custom action outside the WKWebView). I've been trying to search for any solution to fetch mentioned event but unsuccessful. What more came to my mind, if there is a way to fetch a JavaScript in WKWebView, I have a possibility to add some JS script code to this site (not to delete the action I want to block). Thank you for any help.
First, do you have a permission to mess with this web site's behaviour? I assume you do, otherwise it is likely illegal.
Second, try using Safari Web Inspector with a device/simulator, and use the DOM tree and console tools to find out what is the HTML/javascript that is involved with this action on this site.
If you can't find what happens in HTML/JS yourself, feel free to post a new separate question on SO with your target URL, some HTML/JS code, and which link/action you want to replace. Tag the question with "javascript" and ask if it is possible to write some javascript to replace that particular action to some custom JS code.
Usually there are 2 types of actions: either it is something that provokes AJAX calls to a server API triggered by an event handler, or it is a plain HTML link that results in a web navigation. For both cases it is possible to write a JS script that overrides the action.
Finally, use WKUserScript to inject javascript into the page, and override the action. Use window.webkit.messageHandlers to send an event from your custom action to the app side. Use WKScriptMessageHandler to process the event in the Objective-C or Swift code.
See an example here: http://nshipster.com/wkwebkit/
I've been trying to figure this out using various different methods. I'm trying to create a script/bookmark or some type of quick action to open a browser tab or window with a specific URL, and automatically log me in using my credentials. I'm not all that concerned about security for this at the moment.
At first I figured I'd try to use a javascript bookmark to do this, but nothing I found in my research worked. Next I tried to create a bash script, but I couldn't figure out how to send the credentials in via the terminal. Most recently, I literally copied the source code of a site, created a local file and tried to hack together something where I could prefill the form data with credentials and use JS to submit the form, and I've gotten close with this, but for some reason when I use the JS submit function, it errors out and says that the username and password are invalid. But when i turn off the submit function and manually click "log in" on my local html page, it works as expected. I want this to be a one click process, so the idea of using onload/submit or something to that affect is really important to me.
The site I'm testing with has a Rails backend and my next attempt might be trying to use POST to do what I'm thinking, but that's currently outside of my level of knowledge on the subject.
Anyone answering: i do not want to use a password manager to accomplish this.
My requirement is that i will either be able to a) run a script or b) use a 1-click option to do this per website. Ideally i'd be able to set this up in a sort of programmatic way to do this with multiple sites, but I'd be happy with 1 at the moment.
i know similar questions have been answered before, but I haven't been able to use information from those posts (the ones I've seen anyway) to figure out a good way to do this.
Create a bookmark for the current page you have opened.
Edit the bookmark
Change the value for the URL to something like this.
(javascript:(function(){CODE_GOES_HERE_FROM_BELLOW})();
find the field for username and password on the page.
Given example for hotmail
var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input'); for(var i=0;i<inputs.length;i++){if(inputs[i].name === 'passwd'){inputs[i].value = 'YOUR_PASSWORD'}else if(inputs[i].name === 'loginfmt'){inputs[i].value = 'YOUR_USERNAME'}}; document.getElementById(document.getElementsByTagName('form')[0].id).submit();
OR
try out casperjs.
The proposed solution didn't work for me and rather than spending tons of time installing a testing framework that I'll never use other than for this purpose, I decided to try to do this another way.
First, I found out that the reason my JS wasn't working before is because the site did not allow a JS submit to be done, or atleast that's what it seemed to be when I got this error: "Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user's experience"
The javascript I was using was in fact working, just not submitting. I used the following code to fill the fields (using "Class Name" elements on the page since there was no name or ID):
document.getElementsByClassName('username')[0].setAttribute('value', 'user');
document.getElementsByClassName('password')[0].setAttribute('value', 'password');
As I mentioned, the problem was when I tried to use JQuery to submit the form: document.getElementsByClassName('loginForm')[0].submit();
Which is when the above error cropped up. I can't really say for sure whether this is the root of the cause, but the page does submit, but I get an invalid username/password error when I do
I haven't figured out a great way to get around this just yet, but my short-term, "hacky" solution was to use Applescript to send a return keystroke to the browser to submit the form. I'd ideally like to figure out how to get the submission to work using JQuery, but I'm not sure how to get around it.
I want to write an automated test with Selenium using Chromedriver and Behat.
This scenario in question should go to a page, register a user, logout and register another user.
Now the problem is, on the website in question, after registration you get an annoying overlay, so that the logout button is not reachable anymore. I can either make the test fill out the overlay and complete it properly, which will take much more effort, or try to logout some other way.
My idea was to simply go to the domain again with /?event=logout added which normally works to log out the current user. However when I do this in the automation it fails, apparently because of a bad http response code.
Is it not possible to use a url like this with Selenium? Anyone have an idea?
You can achieve this with Selenium using a site that makes GET requests. So you can go to URL http://requestmaker.com/, fill the www.website.com in the Request URL, and 'event=logout' in the Request data, then click "Submit".
It's a bit hacky, so I would prefer using a GET request directly in the code, depending on your programming language... Something like so:
https://www.mkyong.com/java/how-to-send-http-request-getpost-in-java/
Some options would be:
Navigate to URL to logout and try to hide the modal via jQuery/javascript
After registration navigate to homepage and see if the modal is there and if you can logout as you should
Clear session and navigate to the page you need
Pick one of them.
Situation: I needed to add form with POST method to CMS page. I created custom hook and a module displaying the form successfully. Then I need to react to user input errors eg. when user doesn't enter email address I need to detect it, display the whole page again together with the form and with "errors" in user input clearly stated.
Problem: The problem is to display the WHOLE page again with connected information (eg. about errors etc.). In the module PHP file when I add this kind of code,
return $this->display(__FILE__, 'modulename.tpl');
it (naturally) displays ONLY the form, not the whole CMS page with the form.
In case of this code,
Tools::redirectLink('cms.php?id_cms=7');
I can't get to transfer any information by GET neither POST method.
$_POST['test'] = 1;
Tools::redirectLink('cms.php?id_cms=7&test');
I tried to assign to smarty variables too
$smarty->assign('test', '1');
(I need to use it in .tpl file where the form itself is created) but no way to get it work.
{if isset($test)}...,
{if isset($smarty.post.test)}...,
{if isset($_POST['test'])}... {* neither of these conditionals end up as true *}
Even assigning a GET parameter to url has no impact, because there is link rewriting to some kind of friendly url I guess, no matter I included other argument or not. ([SHOPNAME]/cms.php?id_cms=7&test -> [SHOPNAME]/content/7-cmspage-name)
My question is: is there a way to "redirect" or "reload" current page (or possibly any page generally) in prestashop together with my own data included?
I kind of explained the whole case so I'm open to hear a better overall solution than my (maybe I'm thinking about the case in a wrong way at all). This would be other possible answer.
The simplest method would be to use javascript to validate the form - you can use jQuery to highlight the fields that are in error; providing visual feedback on how the submission failed. In effect you don't allow the user to submit the form (and thus leave the page) until you're happy that the action will succeed. I assume that you will then redirect to another page once a successful submission has been received.
There's lots of articles and how-tos available for using javascript, and indeed jQuery for form validation. If you want to keep the site lean and mean, then you can provide an override for the CMS controller and only enqueue the script for the specific page(s) you want to use form validation on.
If the validation is complex, then you might be best using AJAX and just reloading the form section of your page via a call to your module. Hooks aren't great for this kind of thing, so you might want to consider using an alternative mnethod to inject your code onto the cms page. I've written a few articles on this alternative approach which can be found on my prestashop blog
