Exporting with SAP using Python - python-2.7

I am trying to automate some steps in SAP with Python. I am able to do it for other type of SAP codes except for one where the Excel Export is only chosen through the menu bar "list", then "export", then "spreadsheet". Then a dialog box pops up with the request of the location and name of the file.
The issue I ran into with this case is that the Python code does not bring up steps above like it does with other SAP portion. I use the record Macro of SAP to save it in VBscript and put that into the python code.
session.findById("wnd[0]").maximize
session.findById("wnd[0]/mbar/menu[0]/menu[4]/menu[1]").select
session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/ctxtDY_PATH").text = "directory"
session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/ctxtDY_FILENAME").text = "filename"
session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/ctxtDY_FILENAME").caretPosition = 8
session.findById("wnd[1]/tbar[0]/btn[0]").press
The second line of this code results in nothing. Even though it should activate the menu bar, etc.
Your help in resolving this is appreciated.

Read-in df from csv before launching main app | Dash

I am trying to get my first dashboard with python dash running.
The whole thing is very similar to this https://github.com/dkrizman/dash-manufacture-spc-dashboard.
At the beginning a Dataframe is read in from a csv. My problem seems to be quite easy to solve but somehow I am not succeeding:
I want to create a initial window that allows the user to select (from e.g. dropdown) the csv file (or accordingly the path) that is read in. All the .csv files look the same but just have different values.
When using the modal components I get problems with the install of bootstrap and I thought there must be an easier way?
Thanks for your help!
Best,

Extracting Outlook Attachment from Saved Email

I have an analysis project that is requiring me to extract the 'current state' of a PDF that houses our report that is sent out 4 times daily. I have the code written to scrape my PDF but I need to figure out how to extract the PDF from the email so I can step through it with my code.
I tried using the code below
import win32com.client
import os
location = r'C:\Users\myusername\OneDrive - companyinfo\Department Projects\TestEmails'
files = [f for f in os.listdir(location)]
print(files)
for file in files:
if file.endswith('.msg'):
outlook = win32com.client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application").GetNamespace("MAPI")
msg = outlook.OpenSharedItem(file)
att = msg.Attachments
for i in att:
i.SaveAsFil`e(os.path.join(r'C:\Users\username\OneDrive - companyname\Department Projects\TestPDF', i.FileName))
The error it produces is:
pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352567, 'Exception occurred.', (4096, u'Microsoft Outlook', u"We can't open 'Stats Report.msg'. It's possible the file is already open, or you don't have permission to open it.\n\nTo check your permissions, right-click the file folder, then click Properties.", None, 0, -2147287038), None)
I am only currently testing with one saved test.msg file but I have over 1400 I need to parse through. Maybe this isn't the best technique as I know VBA could do something similar within outlook, but I don't have much skills in the VBA region.
I have outlook 2016 installed on Windows 7 computer running python 2.7. Is this error something easy to fix? Is there a better technique to take an attached PDF and save it to a folder so my other program can grab the necessary data?
Desired output: PDF Attachment is Extracted and Saved into a separate folder.
Thank you for your help and expertise,
Andy
So I figured out the answer and how simple and stupid it was makes me unreasonably frustrated.....
My working directory was wrong even though I grabbed the file, the file name was the only item created.
I created a true_location variable that gave it the true full working directory and it worked like a charm.
true_location = location + '\\' + file
Enter that in the for loop under the if clause and it works like a charm.
Best,
Andy

How do I teach WebStorm 9 inspector to recognize Angular Material Design tags/attributes?

Currently, all my angular material HTML attributes are highlighted in yellow with WebStorm 9 (Mac OS X Yosemite) warning: "Attribute [name] is not allowed here".
How can I teach WS to automatically recognize these attributes as valid? I am aware that I can add each one one-by-one to the list of custom attributes, but was hoping that there would be a better way to do this.
UPDATE:
Just wanted to clarify that this issue applies to Angular Material project, and not the AngularJS itself.
You need to add the angular-material.js file as a Library in WebStorm:
Open Preferences (Mac: Cmd+,, Win/Linux: Ctrl+Alt+S)
Go to Languages & Frameworks > JavaScript > Libraries
Click Add and then press the + icon
Find angular-material.js in your node_modules folder
Add a Name and a version and press Ok
Now you will have completions for all elements and attributes that have an #ngdoc documentation in the angular-material source code.
Usage
Start typing and you will see the completions:
Pressing F1 (Ctrl+Q on Win/Linux) will also show some docs, if available in the source code:
Important note
Not all features are properly documented, the following won't show up (unless you already used them) cause they are defined dynamically in a loop, with no #ngdoc for them:
var API_WITH_VALUES = [ "layout", "flex", "flex-order", "flex-offset", "layout-align" ];
var API_NO_VALUES = [ "show", "hide", "layout-padding", "layout-margin" ];
So for these you'd have to add them as a custom attribute (Alt+Enter > "Add flex to custom html attributes").
Environment
Tested on a Mac OS X 10.11.4 using WebStorm 2016.1.1, but this should work for older versions as well.
I am using PHPStorm, which is a sister Project of WebStorm, but it should work the same way.
You maybe need to add the Library:
File
Settings
Languages & Frameworks
Javascript
Librarys
Add here AngularJS
If this does not work, you can add them manually:
Follow this Steps:
File
Default Settings
Editor
Inspection
HTML
Unknown HTML tag attributes
To the right you will see in Options "Custom HTML tag attributes". Enter here the attributes you want to allow.
I highly recomend you to install the Angular.js plugin:
Go to menu File > Settings (or ctrl + alt + S if you're on Windows);
Select Plugins in the window that'll open;
Click in the Browse Repositories button;
Type AngularJS in the search field. Select the plugin;
Click Install Plugin.
The plugin is incumbed to read #ngdoc annotations present in ngMaterial sources and create documentation for their directives.
It seems to support WebStorm and other IDEs, but I could not find it in the plugin registry while filtering by other IDEs. Maybe it'll work inside WebStorm...
Anyway, this is what you get:
You have also a plugin that helps a lot, check it out. It helps a lot
Angular material v2, Teradata covalent v1, Angular flex layout v1 & Material icon live templates
And with the solution provided by #Alex Ilyaev gives a lot of help.
But its no perfect.
Hope it helps.
Currently I don't think that idea's AngularJS plugin understands angular-materials attribute extensions.
It does understand the directives i.e. control click <md-button ...> and the directive (custom tag) is found.
For now you will have to add the attributes af custom attributes in order to get a "green" page.

How do I create text file for Confluence and then import it as a Confluence wiki page?

Here is what I want to accomplish:
I am writing a script which will parse some source code, extract some comments that I want it to extract and I will store this text in a text file.
I want to write another script that uses the content of this text file to be programatically transformed into a Confluence wiki-page.
Please tell me the best way to do this. I already saw this
I felt that I could change the input in the above example to take input from text file and update contents of Confluence page. But, I am not sure how it will be formatted. If I have to format it, what do I need to do?
Thanks in advance!
As an alternative to XML-RPC you can use the integrated WebDAV plugin.
Write a script that creates a directory in the selected space.
The directory name will be the page name. After creating the directory a text-file with the same name (with .txt extension) will be created in the directory which holds the content of the page
let your script edit this file in insert the content of your text-file.
Information about the usage of the plugin:
Configuring a WebDAV client for Confluence
Confluence WebDAV Plugin
Troubleshooting WebDAV
I Also saw the code you are referring to. I tweaked it a bit a produced the following code that me help you for the second part of your question.
My code creates a new space and also a new page from a text file that is inserted in the previously created space.
import sys
import xmlrpc.client
import os
import re
# Connects to confluence server with username and password
site_URL = "YOUR_URL"
server = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(site_URL + "/rpc/xmlrpc")
username = "YOUR_USERNAME"
pwd = "YOUR_PASSWORD"
token = server.confluence2.login(username, pwd)
# The space you want to add a page to
spacekey = "YOUR_SPACENAME"
# Retrives text from a file
f = open('FileName.txt', 'r')
content = f.read()
f.close()
# Creates a new page to insert in the new space from text file content
newpage = {"title":"NEW_PAGENAME", "space":spacekey, "content":content}
server.confluence2.storePage(token, newpage)
server.confluence2.logout(token)
For your formatting issues, html is supported, but I have not quite figured out how to use CSS styles other than inline (everthing else does not seem to work).
These styles work when you write them with the HTML macro inside Confluence, but from the remote API, it does not seem to behave the same way.
UPDATE :
You can use the {html} macro to include your html by using :
content = server.confluence2.convertWikiToStorageFormat(token, content)
You can also specify your CSS in your global CSS stylesheet.
Another option is to develop a plugin to include a CSS resource :
https://developer.atlassian.com/display/CONFDEV/Creating+a+Stylesheet+Theme
I have tried this way and works petty well for me:
I used a Java program to created a programmatic client to create the dynamic content. This created a HTML document out of my plain text.
I used a RPC client connected to Confluence to uploaded it as a new page.
Your html will be preserved. But if you want to add CSS or JS/JQuery etc on top of your html you will need to create a Macro and enable it for the Particular page. This feature is not available in Confluence OnDemand.

TextMate: Preview in Firefox without having to save document first?

Using TextMate:
Is it possible to assign a shortcut to preview/refresh the currently edited HTML document in, say, Firefox, without having to first hit Save?
I'm looking for the same functionality as TextMate's built-in Web Preview window, but I'd prefer an external browser instead of TextMate's. (Mainly in order to use a JavaScript console such as Firebug for instance).
Would it be possible to pipe the currently unsaved document through the shell and then preview in Firefox. And if so, is there anyone having a TextMate command for this, willing to share it?
Not trivially. The easiest way would be to write the current file to the temp dir, then launch that file.. but, this would break any relative links (images, scripts, CSS files)
Add a bundle:
Input: Entire Document
Output: Discard
Scope Selector: source.html
And the script:
#!/usr/bin/env python2.5
import os
import sys
import random
import tempfile
import subprocess
fname = os.environ.get("TM_FILEPATH", "Untitled %s.html" % random.randint(100, 1000))
fcontent = sys.stdin.read()
fd, name = tempfile.mkstemp()
print name
open(name, "w+").write(fcontent)
print subprocess.Popen(["open", "-a", "Firefox", name]).communicate()
As I said, that wont work with relative resource links, which is probably a big problem.. Another option is to modify the following line of code, from the exiting "Refresh Browsers" command:
osascript <<'APPLESCRIPT'
tell app "Firefox" to Get URL "JavaScript:window.location.reload();" inside window 1
APPLESCRIPT
Instead of having the javascript reload the page, it could clear it, and write the current document using a series of document.write() calls. The problem with this is you can't guarantee the current document is the one you want to replace.. Windows 1 could have changed to another site etc, especially with tabbed browsing..
Finally, an option that doesn't have a huge drawback: Use version control, particularly one of the "distributed" ones, where you don't have to send your changes to a remote server - git, mercurial, darcs, bazaar etc (all have TextMate integration also)
If your code is in version control, it doesn't matter if you save before previewing, you can also always go back to your last-commited version if you break something and lose the undo buffer.
Here's something that you can use and just replace "Safari" with "Firefox":
http://wiki.macromates.com/Main/Howtos#SafariPreview
Open the Bundle Editor (control + option + command + B)
Scroll to the HTML Bundle and expand the tree
Select "Open Document in Running Browser(s)"
Assign Activation Key Equivalent (shortcut)
Close the bundle editor
I don't think this is possible. You can however enable the 'atomic saves' option so every time you alt tab to Firefox your project is saved.
If you ever find a solution to have a proper Firefox live preview, let us know.
