Google CustomSearch ignores imgType? - face-detection

It would seem that using the google CSE api always ignores my imgType attribute, even through their official API test page.
My request is:
{
"q": "Maimi Yajima",
"cx": "014585077406021600032:tu4nwhtmr5q",
"searchType": "image",
"imgType": "clipart"
}
But even when changing the imgType i'm always getting back the same results.
Where am I wrong?

Though not confirmed by Google, this is most possibly a bug, or Google intentionally broke the imgType parameter without updating their documentation.

Facebook sharer: Why quote is not applied neither with sharer.php nor with dialog/share? [duplicate]

Per Facebook dev documentation, the share parameter "quote" should insert text:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/share-dialog/
This seemed to be working the other week, but now even using their own testing tool ( http://www.fbrell.com/Sharing/2%20-%20FB.ui%20Dialogs?fbclid=IwAR2TX_eOex-HmIqbIfz9sakxN_laCAVVW_g6p-dW54WwVZkXQ_u5VZi8OCE ), the quote parameter doesn't seem to be inserting any text into the share dialog that pops up.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Someone from the Meta team has said "the quote feature has been deprecated". The documentation had still not been updated at that time, though.
Pretty weird for them to remove a feature with no warning or update to their documentation, then call it "deprecated" (which typically refers to a feature that still works but will be removed in the future).
same problem for me
FB.ui({
method: 'share',
href: this.location,
quote: this.description
})
It worked a week ago, but now it doesn't. but the Facebook documentation does not mention anything about this change
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/share-dialog

Same problem here
FB.ui(
{
method: 'share',
href: 'https://my-url',
quote: encodeURIComponent('My quote')
}
);

Codenameone: AppArg is null on ios when app open via applink

When opening my ios app via an applink, as specified by associated domains feature, the AppArg is null.
The consecutive call of start() method, as described in this issue, does not occur.
In my case, start() is called only once, with a null AppArg, and that's it.
The first thing a do, in the start() method, is call
Display.getInstance().getProperty("AppArg",null);
This works fine when opening the app via a custom scheme, but not when opening via an applink.
Note: I use the ios.glAppDelegateBody and ios.afterFinishLaunching build hints to handle app open via push notification. I figured this might interfere with AppArg reading so I removed those temporarily and tried again, but to no avail.
Currently, the only solution I see is to write some native code and try to get the opening url this way, but I'd very much like for the AppArg to work as it states.
I've tested on iphone 6s with ios 15.1.
Update 3:
This problem occurs due to the call of the facebook sdk in the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions which causes the method to return NO, and that prevents continueUserActivity to execute and retrieve the launch url. The offending code is this:
return [[FBSDKApplicationDelegate sharedInstance] application:application
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
This code gets executed if the facebook.appIdbuild hint is present in the codenameone settings.
After I removed it, things started working.
However, you won't be able to do this if you actually use facebook connect.
Update 2
I added the following snippet to the apple-app-site-association file hosted on my domain, as per the documentation here.
"activitycontinuation": {
"apps": [ <id of my app> ]
}
It didn't work still.
The same documentation also states the an associated domain entitlement like this: activitycontinuation:example.com should be added. So I added it to the ios.associatedDomains build hint, along with the applinks, looking like this:
ios.associatedDomains=applinks:mydomain.com,activitycontinuation:mydomain.com
It still didn't work. The build suceeded, but I'm not sure that codename one is actually doing something with activitycontinuation service.
So, the problem is still not solved!
Update:
So, the flow start,stop,start only happens when the app is in background and gets opened via an applink click, and both times start is called with the AppArg populated with the applink. All well in this case.
However, if the app is closed, and opepend via applink click, start is called only once and the AppArg is null. Problem!
The method shouldApplicationHandleURL is never called. I implemented it on the main app class, returning true.
I have also tried adding native code to try to get the applink, for the case when the app was previously closed. I tried to add the code below to the glAppDelegateBody build hint, but the build failed complaining that the continueUserActivity is duplicate. The code used was something like this:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
continueUserActivity:(NSUserActivity *)userActivity
restorationHandler:(void (^)(NSArray *restorableObjects))restorationHandler {
NSURL *url = userActivity.webpageURL;
// Handle url
return YES;
}
Currently, I'm running out of ideas. So, please, help. Thank you.
iOS uses a different mechanism for dealing with applinks than it does for custom app URL schemes, so it is likely that there is a race condition here -where start() is being called before the URL is provided to the app.
Try implementing the com.codename1.system.URLCallback interface in your main lifecycle class and implement the shouldApplicationHandleURL method. This should be called when an applink is processed.
The solution, in my case, was to remove the facebook.appId build hint from the condenameone_settings.properties. I wasn't using facebook anymore, but forgot about the build hint. After removing it, things started working.
Found about this here.
By adding the following code to the ios.afterFinishLaunching build hint, the AppArg will be populated at start with the app launchUrl (if any), regardless of the fact that facebook sdk is used or not:
NSDictionary *activityDictionary = [launchOptions objectForKey:UIApplicationLaunchOptionsUserActivityDictionaryKey];
if (activityDictionary) {
NSUserActivity *userActivity = [activityDictionary valueForKey:#"UIApplicationLaunchOptionsUserActivityKey"];
if (userActivity != nil) {
if ([NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb isEqualToString:userActivity.activityType] && userActivity.webpageURL != nil) {
JAVA_OBJECT launchUrlStr = fromNSString(CN1_THREAD_GET_STATE_PASS_ARG [userActivity.webpageURL absoluteString]);
JAVA_OBJECT appArgKey = fromNSString(CN1_THREAD_GET_STATE_PASS_ARG #"AppArg");
JAVA_OBJECT displayInstObj = com_codename1_ui_Display_getInstance__(CN1_THREAD_GET_STATE_PASS_SINGLE_ARG);
com_codename1_ui_Display_setProperty___java_lang_String_java_lang_String(CN1_THREAD_GET_STATE_PASS_ARG displayInstObj, appArgKey, launchUrlStr);
}
}
}

Google Structured Data Testing Tool not validating on first load

I'm using Google's Structured Data Testing Tool to investigate why Google isn't finding any structured data on my page.
On first loading the URL (https://www.languagesunited.co.uk), I get an "Uncategorised Error":
JSON-LD Missing '}' or object member name.
Within the test tool source windows, I can making a small change to the page (add a space somewhere) and re-run the validation, and it validates (except for the url needing to be www.example.com for the tool to work).
I'd be grateful for any advice if anyone has had a similar problem.
After some experimenting with different options and getting different results with the test tool, the answer was very simple. There were some invalid whitespace characters in my structured data. Switching on the "show invisibles" option in my editor allowed me to replace these with spaces, and the data validated successfully.
Both are, most likely, bugs in the SDTT.
If you paste the markup (instead of letting it fetch the URL), the SDTT detects the structured data immediately (letting it fetch first and then editing something in the detected markup is the same idea). So there’s probably something wrong with their URL fetching.
For the issue with the example domain, see these questions:
Google structured data error: “All values provided for http://www.example.com/ must have the same domain.”
Google SDTT error: “All values provided for http://www.example.com/ must have the same domain.”
Schema.org and ContactPoint use with validation failure: “All values provided for http://www.example.com/ must have the same domain.” (on Webmasters SE)
I've just realized that Google Structured Data Validation Tool requires you (or us) to include context, In example:
'#context': 'https://schema.org',
(schema.org includes it in all their examples, i.e.:
Example encoded as JSON-LD in a HTML script tag.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "https://schema.org/",
"#type": "Person",
"name": "Christopher Froome",
"sponsor":
{
"#type": "Organization",
"name": "Sky",
"url": "http://www.skysports.com/"
}
}
</script>
If you do so you will start getting results again.

Can alchemylanguage be used to analyze text without url?

In the demo, it can analyze plain text
But in the API reference all REST APIs require url. And they don't seem to support analyze text directly. I tried to use text in a POST form anyway. But I got error.
{
"status": "ERROR",
"statusInfo": "invalid-url"
}
This is more a documentation issue, than a coding issue. In the documentation you will see three buttons. Select the Text one to get the documentation on Text calls.

Getting $http.put() to send correctly formatted data, instead of JSON object

So, I spent some time and built a quick API for a project that I'm doing for myself.
I used the Postman add-on for Chrome to mimic PUT and DELETE quests to make sure everything worked correctly. Really happy I did that, as I learned a lot about PHP's shortcomings with PUT and DELETE requests.
Using the API I've had working with Postman, I started moving everything over to AngularJs controllers and such.
I'm trying to get a user to claim a row in a database as the login information for the users is different than this particular information. I couldn't figure out why the put requests to claim the row in my database wasn't working. Lo and behold, the data being parsed from my parsestr(file_get_contents('php://input')) had 1 array key, which was a JSON string.
I've looked, and I can't seem to find a solid answer either through Stackoverflow or Google (maybe I missed it somewhere in the config options), So my question is this: is there any way I can get the $http.put call send the data to the server correctly?
Thanks to user Chandermani for pointing me to the link at this URL which answered the base of my question.
From the above link, I found myself on This Blog post submitted by another user. In the end, what I ended up doing was the following:
taking param() function from the above link, as well as implementing these lines of code:
var app = angular.module('ucpData', [] , function($httpProvider){
$httpProvider.defaults.transformRequest = [function(data) {
return angular.isObject(data) && String(data) !== '[object File]' ? param(data) : data;
}];
});
Is how I worked around the problem. For some developers, you may actually want to keep the default transformRequest settings, but for the project I am doing I know that I will end up forgetting to call param() at some point, and my server doesn't naturally accept json data anyway. I would caution future developers to consider what they are attempting to do before they alter the transformRequest array directly.
