I'm actually struggeling with a problem handling some kml files with google map in my Javascript application.
I wrote a method with that I'm reading a KML file from an URL or my local file system and storing the content as a String in a Database. Now i would like to activate layers that are stored in my db by clicking a button. Everything is fine up to here.
In every example i can find they are only using the url-attribute of a KmlLayer by passing an url to a KML-File.
like here:
var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer({
url: 'http://googlemaps.github.io/js-v2-samples/ggeoxml/cta.kml',
map: map
});
But since my files are stored as Strings in my db I don't have an url to a file, only the content. I can't find a way to only pass the XML-String as content.
Somebody here who can help?
Maybe someday somebody will struggle with a similar problem. The solution was a little bit tricky. I needed to create a Blob with the content of my String. With the blob I created a file and packed it into an URL. This URL you can pass to your kml parser. I used https://github.com/geocodezip/geoxml3 for that.
vm.activeLayers.forEach(function(value, key) {
var file = new Blob([value], {type: 'kml'})
var url = URL.createObjectURL(file);
var myParser = new geoXML3.parser({
map : map
});
myParser.parse(url);
})

I'm making a dating sim as my first game and I want to use a JSON file to store all of my dialogue, sprites and B.G.M. kind of like a A.P.I; but the file I wrote won't appear in the godot filesystem section.
I can't get the file path without it, is there a way for it to appear or should I just give up.
Try using the File API and read the data into the variable. Like so:
var data ={}
var path = "res://data.json"
func _ready():
var jsonfile = File.new()
jsonfile.open(path, File.READ)
data = parse_json(jsonfile.get_as_text())
print(data)
pass
Also you can install JSON Editor asset from Godot marketplace - https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/656
I am trying to append the recorded video which is blob object into quill editor but the video which is appended in the editor is not playable.
Able to see only the blob object getting printed in the quill editor. If i try to open the contents in the browser it is working fine. Any suggestions?
enter image description here
well,according to this issue,
I think you maybe need to overwrite the video module's sanitize method to make it work,for image it can work like this:
var Image = Quill.import('formats/image')
Image.sanitize = function(url) {
return url
}
so as I guess, following things maybe useful:
var Video = Quill.import('formats/video')
Video.sanitize = function(url) {
return url
}
and you may need provide blob url to make it work
I am using the PDF.js library to display PDf files within my site (using the pdf_viewer.js to display documents on-screen), but the PDF files I am displaying are confidential and I need to be able to show them within the site but block non-authorized public folks from being able to view the same files just by typing in theie URLs and seeing them show up right in their browser.
I tried to add the Deny from all line in my htaccess file, but that also of courfse blocked the viewer from showing the docs, so that seems to be a no-go. Clearly anyone could simply look at inspector and see the pdf file that is being read by the viewer, so it seems a direct URL is not going to be secure in any way.
I did read about PDF.js being able to read binary data, but I have no knowledge of how I might read in a PDF in my own file system and prep it for use by the library, eveen if that means it is all a bit slower in loading to get the file contents and prep it on the fly.
Anyone have a solution that allows PDFJS to work without revealing the source PDF URL, or to otherwise read the file using local file calls?
Okay, after some testing, the solution is very easy:
Get the PDF data using an Ajax-called function that can figure out what actual file is to be viewed.
In that PHP file...
Read the file into memory, using fopen and fread normally.
Convert to base64 using the base64_encode
Pass that string back to the calling Javascript.
In the original calling function, use the following to convert the string to a Uint array and then pass that to the PDFJS library...
## The function that turns the base64 string into whatever a Uint8 array is...
function base64ToUint8Array(base64) {
var raw = atob(base64);
var uint8Array = new Uint8Array(raw.length);
for (var i = 0; i < raw.length; i++) {
uint8Array[i] = raw.charCodeAt(i);
}
return uint8Array;
}
## the guts that gets the file data, calls the above function to convert it, and then calls PDF.JS to display it
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
data: {file: <a file id or whatever distinguishes this PDF>},
url: 'getFilePDFdata.php', (the PHP file that reads the data and returns it encoded)
success: function(base64Data){
var pdfData = base64ToUint8Array(base64Data);
## Loading document.
PDFJS.getDocument(pdfData).then(function (pdfDocument) {
## Document loaded, specifying document for the viewer and
## the (optional) linkService.
pdfViewer.setDocument(pdfDocument);
pdfLinkService.setDocument(pdfDocument, null);
});
}
});
I am trying to build a simple photo upload app on Ionic (Cordova). I am using the cordovaImagePicker plugin to have the user select images from the mobile device. This plugin returns an array of paths on the device.
For handling the upload part I am using jquery-file-upload (mostly because that is what I used for the browser version and I am doing all kinds of processing for which I have the code ready). The problem is however that jquery-file-upload expects to work with an input element <input type="file"> which creates a javascript File object containing all kinds of metadata.
So in order to get the cordovaImagePicker to work with jquery-file-upload, I figure I have to convert the filepath to a File object. Below I am using the cordova file plugin to achieve this:
$cordovaImagePicker.getPictures($scope.pickOptions).then(function(filelist) {
$.each(filelist, function (index, filepath) {
$window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(filepath, function(fileEntry) {
fileEntry.file(function(file) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function(e) {
fileObj = new File([this.result],"filename.jpg",{type: "image/jpeg"});
// send filelist from cordovaImagePicker to jquery-fileupload as if through file input
$('#fileupload').fileupload('send', {files: fileObj});
};
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(file);
}, function(e){$scope.errorHandler(e)});
}, function(e){$scope.errorHandler(e)});
});
}, function(error) {
// error getting photos
console.log('Error selecting images through $cordovaImagePicker');
});
So first of all this is not really working correctly, apparently I am doing doing something wrong, since for example the type attribute ends up being another object that contains the type attribute with the correct values (and other such weird issues). I would be happy if someone could point out what I am doing wrong.
Surely there must be something (cordova plugin?) that I am not aware of that does this conversion for me (including for example adding a thumbnail)? Alternatively, maybe there is something that can easily make jquery-file-upload work with filepaths? I couldn't find anything so far...
However, it feels I am trying too hard here to force connecting two components that were just not built to work together (File objects vs filepath) and I should maybe just rewrite the processing and use the cordova file transfer plugin?
I ended up rewriting the uploader with the cordova-file-transfer which works like a charm. I wasted more time trying to work around it than just rewriting it from scratch.
I'm trying to replace a PDF file in a Google Drive Folder using a script. Since GAS does not provide a method for adding revisions (versions), I'm trying to replace the content of the file, but all I get is a blank PDF.
I can't use the DriveApp.File class since our Admin has disabled the new API, so I have to use DocsList.File instead.
Input:
OldFile.pdf (8 pages)
NewFile.pdf (20 pages)
Output expected:
OldFile.pdf with the same content as NewFile.pdf
Real Output:
OldFile.pdf with 20 empty pages.
Process:
var old = DocsList.getFileById("####");
var new = DocsList.getFileById("####");
old.replace(new.getContentAsString());
Any ideas, please?
Thanks a lot in advance.
PS.: I also tried calling old.clear() first, but I'd say the problem lies on the getContentAsString method.
The Advanced Drive Service can be used to replace the content of an existing PDF file in Google Drive. This answer also includes an example of how to update a PDF file in a shared Drive.
function overwriteFile(blobOfNewContent,currentFileID) {
var currentFile;
currentFile = DriveApp.getFileById(currentFileID);
if (currentFile) {//If there is a truthy value for the current file
Drive.Files.update({
title: currentFile.getName(), mimeType: currentFile.getMimeType()
}, currentFile.getId(), blobOfNewContent);
}
}

An example of using with a shared Drive:
Drive.Files.update({ title: currentFile.getName(), mimeType:
currentFile.getMimeType() }, currentFile.getId(), blobOfNewContent,
{supportsTeamDrives: true});
Try to get it as a blob datatype instead.
