Postman: How to Export/Download API Documentation from Postman? - postman

I have developed a collection in postman having a bunch of API Endpoints. I can add team member to my Postman workspace and also can share the Documentation link publicly online.
What I was finding to have a download link to download the documentation as a folder so that I could add them into my project.
Is there anything I failed to find in postman?

You can export the collection as a json as shown in the other answer and then run a tool to convert it into an HTML document that you can host wherever you want.
I created a simple python executable to do just that -

Hi #Siddiqui currently this feature is not available, I do it by going to my collection documentation and getting it to print when the print prompt is shown I save the document as PDF before finalizing the print options. Once I get it in PDF I have all sorts options to do as I want. This is the closest I have been to downloading my collection documentation.
I have redacted information for privacy.
Hope this helps or leave a comment if I can be of any further assistance.

Postman generated API documentation is meant to be shared and consumed via workspace and URL to help ensure it is kept up to date and does not go stagnant. Because documentation will most likely be regularly updated with examples, new endpoints, and other elements anything downloaded will quickly be out of date. I know that a PDF generated version has been discussed as part of future releases, but keeping API documentation up to date is the priority.

A simple solution to this is to print the page to PDF from the web browser. It's not perfect but it is usable.

How to integrate 1С with Django?

There is an online store built on Django. How do I set up an exchange of data on products between Django and 1C? I have checked some documentation on the CommerceML format, but it is still unclear how to set it up on the 1C side. As far as I understand, all uploads are configured quite simply. You just need to register the URL of the handler. And then everything happens automatically
Yes, 1с provides an algorithm for interacting with the upload script by which files of product offers are uploaded to the server.
Therefore, you can configure data exchange with external sources and sites, for this in your solution, go to the menu item Administration - Data Exchange and check the box "Data exchange with sites" where you specify the directories and documents involved in the exchange. After downloading the XML files, you just need to process them on the server side. There is information on the developer's forum https://1c-dn.com/forum/forum11/topic2308/ with the methods of exchange settings and API , see if one of the methods suggested there will help you. They also have a blog article about different ways of integration https://1c-dn.com/blog/work-with-http-services-in-1c-part-1-get-method/

Need help to add front-end on slatwall eCommerce

I am trying to build the eCommerce store by using Slatwall and lucee. Slatwall is the ColdFusion based eCommerce framework. The admin part is working fine. But I could not create the user side. I also referred the slatwall documentation. But no luck I couldn't seen any clear example and document for adding the front end on slatwall. If anyone knows help me please?
Slatwall frontend document
As OP says, SlatWall has excellent $upport, that's where they make a living. You now have three choices for a front end:
1) Slatwall latest versions have their own integrated CMS now. I'd recommend you export your product info, install the latest Slatwall, import the data back in.
2) Load MuraCMS, an Open Source Content Management (i.e. front-end) system that has integration to Slatwall (or the other way round, IIRC)
3) Roll your own in ColdFusion after learning ins and outs of the Slatwall api. Not recommended unless you're already CF experienced and have some previous experience with an api, any api.
For completeness I am going to answer this question even though its months old, for anyone else that views this.
You have a couple options here but the easiest way:
There is a complete example of a fully implemented Slatwall site including product listing pages, shopping-cart, and checkout included with Slatwall.
You may view the sample site by visiting http://{yourslatwallsite}/meta/sample
On the sample site, you can choose from the menu to view your products, add them to your cart, or checkout. Make sure your products are both active and published in the admin or you will not see them on the sample site. If you go through the .cfm pages that makeup the sample site, there are many examples documented (as comments in the code). Note that the actual .cfm files will be stored in /public/views/xxx.cfm and the meta folder just references them. /public/views/templates/slatwall-productlisting.cfm for example has complete examples on listing products on the frontend.
The sample site is powerful enough that you could restyle it and use it as your store

File browser with Django and Alfresco

I have a Django site and a local install of Alfresco (community edition). One of my model contains a file reference which maps to a document in Alfresco. The view should have a field that spawns a file browser that can access the repository structure within Alfresco so that the user can pick whichever file they want at whichever version.
I looked at the CMSIlib module and it seems to be providing all the interaction I need for the back end code. Although downloading a document seems clunky.
There are lots of Django file browsers but none seem to interface with CMSIlib.
Do I have to code my own or have I missed something?
The version is Alfresco Community v5.0.0 (d r99759-b2) schema 8022 Spring Surf and Spring WebScripts - v5.0.0.
To be honest, I am not a python guy ! But I heard over the official #alfresco IRC channel that cmislib is not so much of an active project, and questions about it only bump once in a while .... The RESTful api however may be considered as a good alternative in your use case:
To access alfresco content using the RESTful api, you should be querying this webscript: /alfresco/d/<d|a>/<workspace>/<store>/<nodeId>/<filename>
where :
d and a refer to direct / attached mode
<workspace>, <store> and <nodeId> reference your content nodeRef
<filename> a file name of your choice
So you should be making a GET Request an a URL that looks something like this http://<host>:<port>/alfresco/d/d/workspace/SpacesStore/8444ad61-4734-40e3-b2d4-b8b1c81347fd/myFile.ext
Note : Depending on the permission set on your node, you might need to attach an alf_ticket to the URL for an authenticated alfresco user. Please check this for further insights.
UPDATE 1:
If you have a problem identifying your file nodeRef, then you can setup a repo webscript implementing your custom logic (browsing some folder / searching for a document by name or metadata ....)
If your are not familiar with webscript development check Jeff Pott's tutorial on the subject
UPDATE 2:
To get started with your webscript development check out Alfresco docs/wiki!
Check this wiki page to learn how to retrieve children for a given node !
Or check this wiki page to learn how to develop webscripts implementing your custom business logic.
If you do not have anything against the YUI javascript library (that is no longer actively maintained), you can integrate the object-finder already available in Alfresco Share. The library is in
share/components/object-finder/object-finder.js
You will need to modify it a bit given that you are not inside Share.
To be totally honest, I do not know if it is feasible because it has other dependencies but being a browser site library, in theory can be integrated everywhere.

How do I extract data from Sitecore's Web Forms for Marketers database?

I want to be able to extract the form submissions from the Web Forms for marketers database and output it in an excel file I can make available to the public on demand.
Anyone know how I can do this?
I know they have an export to Excel option, but it is not automatic and requires someone to login and have access to the form.
I haven't been able to find any documentation from Sitecore on how to do this. Is this a supported operation? Do I have to reflect over the dlls to find api calls? Do I have to delve in to the SQL database and figure out how to do it manually? Is there no hope?
You might get lucky when using Reflector to disasamble the Sitecore.Forms dll. Try to find out if you can disassemble the code that get's run when clicking the Export button.
Actually:
The command comes from: Sitecore.Form.Core.Commands.Export
The executed code is in: Sitecore.Form.Core.Pipelines.Export.Excel
Good luck!
This writeup provides a very detailed account of how to do this if anyone else stumbles on this post. http://r-coding-sitecoreblog.blogspot.com/2011/11/extracting-data-from-sitecore-wffm.html
Hello You can use below given my blog URL to export data in CSV I have also written some blogs to export in XML and HTML on front end

How to make website available offline

I want to make my website available offline even if the user clears the cache and cookies. Is is possible? Also I am dealing with database. Is is possible to handle databases offline?
A user could store a local copy of a single webpage using Chrome (right click save-as) and it will store all resources (images, css, js) required to fully load the page offline. Other browsers will have similar options.
You can use wget to mirror a whole website for offline browsing.
wget --mirror --convert-links --html-extension -p http://www.example.com/
of course neither of these options will handle database driven elements of your site/page.
If you want to mock a database or dynamic elements of a page offline then Google Gears is probably the closest to what you are looking for but I think it was deprecated by Google last year.
If your users have modern browsers, try HTML5 Application Cache.

Summary: Click me, I'm the newish thing that browsers now support!
I clicked some of the links found in other answers, and all tools mentioned are deprecated or will/should be soon.
Later when I wasn't connected to the internet, I opened a site operated by Google (either Google Docs or YouTube, I sadly forgot since then) and went to view the page source, as I was curious to see other answers in action. I found something called ORIGIN-TRIAL in the manifest file.
After a quick Google search, I found this, which brought me to this, which somehow brought me to the last link:
https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/service-workers
In conclusion, use Service Workers now. If you're curious if it now works with all browsers, don't worry. All popular browsers should support it as seen here.
No, if your databases are housed online. then you need a internet connection for the PHP/ASP (whatever you're using to deal with DBs) to connect/communicate to the DB's
For storing data locally and accessing them offline take a look at Gears and Web Storage.
The main problem is what degree of functionality you want to provide with your website. It always requires some work on the client (user) side to "store" aka. save your website offline. You would have to store all your functionality in one page that the user stores (be it a Flash movie or some Javascript-Code).
You can use simple command to download whole website locally with all links working properly.
wget -rk 'http://www.website.com'
For https url you need to add one more property like below :
wget -rk --no-check-certificate 'https://www.website.com'
