I'd like to send base64 image as an attachment to a trello card through the API
POST /1/cards/[card id or shortlink]/attachments
There's a file field but it does not specify how should look the data there.
Refs: https://developers.trello.com/advanced-reference/card#post-1-cards-card-id-or-shortlink-attachments
Any idea?
Short answer: Trello's API only works to attach binary data via multipart/form-data. Examples below.
Long answer:
The Trello API to add attachments and images is frustratingly under-documented. They do have a coffeescript Client.js for those of us using Javascript to simplify all the basic operations: https://trello.com/1/client.coffee
Using the vanilla Client.js file I have been able to attach links and text files. While the CURL example shows pulling a binary file in from a hard drive, that doesn't work for those of us completely on a server or client where we don't have permissions to create a file.
From a LOT of trial and error, I've determined all binary data (images, documents, etc.) must be attached using multipart/form-data. Here is a jQuery snippet that will take a URL to an item, get it into memory, and then send it to Trello.
var opts = {'key': 'YOUR TRELLO KEY', 'token': 'YOUR TRELLO TOKEN'};
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('get', params); // params is a URL to a file to grab
xhr.responseType = 'blob'; // Use blob to get the file's mimetype
xhr.onload = function() {
var fileReader = new FileReader();
fileReader.onload = function() {
var filename = (params.split('/').pop().split('#')[0].split('?')[0]) || params || '?'; // Removes # or ? after filename
var file = new File([this.result], filename);
var form = new FormData(); // this is the formdata Trello needs
form.append("file", file);
$.each(['key', 'token'], function(iter, item) {
form.append(item, opts.data[item] || 'ERROR! Missing "' + item + '"');
});
$.extend(opts, {
method: "POST",
data: form,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
return $.ajax(opts);
};
fileReader.readAsArrayBuffer(xhr.response); // Use filereader on blob to get content
};
xhr.send();
I have submitted a new coffeescript for Trello developer support to consider uploading to replace Client.js. It adds a "Trello.upload(url)" that does this work.
I've also attached here for convenience in JS form.

I am using 'dgrid/Grid' and dstore/RequestMemory for creating grid and storing data. Now I want to filter data according to values in the fields(see img). I am not sure how to filter data when using simple Dgrid and dstore.
var structure = [{
label : "Value Date",
field : "valueDate"
}, {
id: "currencyCol",
label : "Currency",
field : "currency"
}, {
label : "Nostro",
field : "nostroAgent"
}];
var store= new RequestMemory({
target: 'getReportData',
idProperty: "cashflowId",
headers: structure
});
// Create an instance of OnDemandGrid referencing the store
var grid = new(declare([Grid, Pagination, Selection]))({
collection: store,
columns: structure,
loadingMessage: 'Loading data...',
noDataMessage: 'No results found.',
minRowsPerPage: 50,
}, 'grid');
grid.startup();
on(document.getElementById("filter"), "click", function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
grid.set('collection', store.filter({
**currencyCol: "AED"**
.
.
.
}));
Any help would be appreciated or suggest if I use some diffrent store or grid.
I got the solution for my question. On filter button click I have written all my filtering logic and the final store will set to dgrid:
on(document.getElementById("filter"), "click", function(event) {
var store= new RequestMemory({
target: 'getReportData',
idProperty: "cashflowId",
headers: structure
});
var from=dijit.byId('from').value;
var to=dijit.byId('to').value;
var curr=dijit.byId('currency').value;
var nos=dijit.byId('nostro').value;
var authStatus=dijit.byId('authStatus').value;
var filterStore;
var finalStore=store;
var filter= new store.Filter();
var dateToFindFrom;
var dateToFindTo;
if (from != "" && from !== null) {
var yyyy = from.getFullYear().toString();
var mm = ((from.getMonth()) + 1).toString(); // getMonth() is zero-based
var dd = from.getDate().toString();
if(mm <= 9){
mm= "0" + mm;
}
if(dd <= 9){
dd= "0" + dd;
}
dateToFindFrom =yyyy + mm + dd;
filterStore= filter.gte('valueDate', dateToFindFrom);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
}
if (to != "" && to !== null) {
var yyyy = to.getFullYear().toString();
var mm = ((to.getMonth()) + 1).toString(); // getMonth() is zero-based
var dd = to.getDate().toString();
if(mm <= 9){
mm= "0" + mm;
}
if(dd <= 9){
dd= "0" + dd;
}
dateToFindTo =yyyy + mm + dd;
filterStore= filter.lte('valueDate', dateToFindTo); //.lte('valueDate', dateToFindTo);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
}
if(curr != "" && curr !== null) {
filterStore= filter.eq('currency', curr);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
}
if(nos != "" && nos !== null) {
filterStore= filter.eq('nostroAgent',nos);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
}
if(authStatus != "" && authStatus !== null) {
if (authStatus=='ALL') {
var both= [true, false];
filterStore= filter.in('approved', both);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
} else if (authStatus=='Authorised Only') {
filterStore= filter.eq('approved', true);
finalStore=finalStore.filter(filterStore);
} else if (authStatus=='Unauthorised Only') {

I have created a json file containing my Sql Server datas. With the XmlHttpRequest's GET method, I am reading json file and iterating and saving those records to my IndexedDB.. Everything is working fine.. After the end of the iteration, I wrote a code to alert the user.. But the alert message is displayed very quickly, but when I see it in the console window, the saving operation is till processing.. I want to alert the user, only after the operation is completed..
My code is,
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
var sFileText;
var sPath = "IDBFiles/Reservation.json";
//console.log(sPath);
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("GET", sPath, 1);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
if (xhr.responseText != "") {
sFileText = xhr.responseText;
//console.log(sFileText);
var val = JSON.parse(sFileText);
var i = 0;
var value = val.length;
for(var i in val)
{
var code = val[i].RTM_res_category_code;
var desc = val[i].RTM_res_category_edesc;
addReserv(code, desc);
}
if(i >= value-1) {
console.log("Reservation Load Completed... "+i);
document.getElementById("status").innerHTML = "Reservation Loading Success...";
}
}
}
}
xhr.send();
}
//Passing Parameters to Reservation
function addReserv(code, desc)
{
document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = "Loading Reservation.. Please wait...";
var trans = db.transaction(["Reservation"], "readwrite");
var store = trans.objectStore("Reservation");
//console.log(store);
var reserv={ RTM_res_category_code : code, RTM_res_category_edesc : ''+desc+'' };
var request = store.add(reserv);
request.onerror = function(e) {
console.log(e.target.error.name);
document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = e.target.error.name;
}
request.onsuccess = function(e) {
console.log("Reservation Saved Successfully.");
//document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = "Reservation Loaded Successfully.";
}
}
Thanks for the question.
What you are currently doing works, but the alert comes to soon because of the async nature of the IDB.
What you should to avoid this.
1. Create your transaction only once.
2. Do all your operations in this one transaction.
3. The transaction object has an oncomplete callback you can use to notify the user.
Concrete on your example. Instead of looping over the items in the ajax callback, pass the collection to your add method and loop there
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
var sFileText;
var sPath = "IDBFiles/Reservation.json";
//console.log(sPath);
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("GET", sPath, 1);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
if (xhr.responseText != "") {
sFileText = xhr.responseText;
//console.log(sFileText);
var val = JSON.parse(sFileText);
import(val);
}
}
}
xhr.send();
}
function import(values)
{
document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = "Loading Reservation.. Please wait...";
var trans = db.transaction(["Reservation"], "readwrite");
var store = trans.objectStore("Reservation");
var i = 0;
var value = val.length;
for(var i in val)
{
var code = val[i].RTM_res_category_code;
var desc = val[i].RTM_res_category_edesc;
var reserv={ RTM_res_category_code : code, RTM_res_category_edesc : ''+desc+'' };
var request = store.add(reserv);
request.onerror = function(e) {
console.log(e.target.error.name);
document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = e.target.error.name;
}
request.onsuccess = function(e) {
console.log("Reservation Saved Successfully.");
//document.querySelector("#status").innerHTML = "Reservation Loaded Successfully.";
}
}
trans.oncomplete = function () {
console.log("Reservation Load Completed... "+i);
document.getElementById("status").innerHTML = "Reservation Loading Success...";
}
}
To start off with, I would like to say that I have been looking on the internet for a really long time and have been unable to find the answer, hence my question here.
My latest school project is to create an admin page for adding articles to a database, the articles are connected to a point on a google map. The requirement for adding the point on the map is that the user is able to click the map once and the marker is produced, if the map is clicked a second time the first marker is moved to the second location. (this is what I am struggling with.)
The problem is, as the code is now, I get the error that markersArray is undefined. If I place the var markersArray = new Array; underneath the eventListener then I get an error that there is something wrong the main.js (googles file) and markersArray[0] is undefined in the second if.
By the way, I have to use google maps API v2, even though it is old.
