Quarto - How to embed files in outputted word documents programmatically? - r-markdown

My quarto document uses knitr as the backend. I have the output set to create a word document. I would like the outputted word document to also contain an embedded object that is the file used to create the word document itself.
So create_word.qmd will create output_word_file.docx. I would like there to be an embedded object in the output_word_file.docx file that is a copy of create_word.qmd. Is this possible programmatically? Or do I need to manually do this part?
If it's only possible using the .Rmd file type then I can make that work.

How to maintain the appropriate file type (MIME) when moving a documents (pdf, xls) from one library to another

I have a workflow that I created in moving a document from one library to another library and it works fine for word documents, but when moving excel or PDF files, the file is moved, but the filetype seems to be a word file type.
I am using Create Item in creating the item in the new library. There does not seem to be a way to update the file type or mime type using this command.

Load files from folder with a custom query with power BI

I am trying to load csv files from a folder but I need to apply several custom steps to each file, including dropping the PromoteHeaders default.
I have a custom query that can load a single file successfully. How do I turn it into a query that loads all files in a folder?
By default, File.folder's "promoteHeaders" messes up my data because of a missing column name (which my custom query fixes).
The easiest way to create a function that reads a specific template of file is to actually do it. Just create the M to read it and by right click on the entity transform it to a function.
After that is really simple to transform your M so it uses parameters.
You can create a blank query and replace the code with this on as an example, customize with more steps to deal with your file requirements.
= (myFile) => let
Source = Csv.Document(myFile,[Delimiter=",", Columns=33, Encoding=1252, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.None])
in
Source
And then Invoke Custom Function for each file with the content as the parameter.

Type "p" Annotations with Plain Text files

I am trying to understand whether GATE is able to extract annotations of type "p" from plain text files which are UTF-8 encoded.
HTML files and PDF files work just fine and "p" annotations are added when these 2 file types are being analysed.
I tried using different PRs but i do not seem to be able to get type "p" annotations under Original Markups.
Is there a way to achieve this for Plain Text files?
I think you should use Annotation Set Transfer PR which will move "p" annotations from Original Markups to Default set. Then you will be able to use them according to your requirements.

How to edit text file data with c++

I have a program that create a text file of stock items, which contains detail of 'total production' , 'stock remaining' and so on. Now my question is how do I edit that text file with my program. For example if I mistake to enter a correct data (like production was 500 pieces but enter only 400) now how can I edit my file to make it correct without effecting other data.
You probably should not create a text file in the first place. Did you consider using sqlite (or indexed files à la GDBM ...) or some real database like PostgreSQL or MongoDb?
If you insist on editing programmatically a textual file, the only way is to process every line : either keep all of them in memory, or copy them (except the one you'll change) to some new file.... But there is no portable way to change the content of a file in the middle.
You might also be interested in textual serialization formats like JSON, YAML (or maybe even XML).

what is the actual meaning of parsing a html file?

I am not able to understand what actually parsing the html means ?
As i understand -
- it means that suppose we have any html file by parsing we can have the contents of the html file and we can edit them using parsing. Am i right ?? (parsing simply gives the idea about the contents and structure inside the file.)
I have one more question-
- I also want to know that suppose i have html file contents stored in a stream suppose (inside IStream *HTMLContents - No matter for now that how i got these contents). Is there any process exist that using these file contents may i create the preview on any window/Dialog Box/Preview pane with the same way exactly as i get the view of that html file in the browser.(for now you can imagine that i have downloded the HTML File contents from any web page(or from any where-No matter- But i have contents of html file in my stream i am sure about it) and i want to render that html file view in my own created window/Dialog Box/Preview pane(i mean it should view exactly as it appears in browser-Yes i know it won't be avle to display some pictures in html file but thats not a problem for me). How to do that ?? (I am using Visual c++ for my accomplishing my task)
Parsing basically means analyzing any data. When you parse HTML, it could be that you are figuring out where all the various elements are located and what do they do.
As for displaying HTML, it depends on what do you want to do:
If you want to open the file in your browser, use something like this.
As for displaying HTML directly in your form, I don't really know of any other way than parsing the HTML and creating your own web rendering engine. Good luck and have fun with that I guess.
Parse HTML means build object model such as DOM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Object_Model in your program
