Can I use an external url for creating an Android app with CrossWalk? - crosswalk-runtime

I have a published web application and I would like to build an android application that will open it. I am trying to use Crosswalk for that but I don't find any information of how to set the manifest.json with the external url.

I was given an answer by their Twitter:
Crosswalk Project ‏#xwalk_project 2h2 hours ago #ronenfe yes, use
make_apk --app-url=APP_URL

Create a manifest.json file for your application and set the "start_url" field to the external URL you wish to use.
This works both with the (now deprecated) make_apk and the newer crosswalk-app-tools.

Where are Postman collections saved?

Where does the standalone Postman client for Windows save collections when working offline?
To clarify, I want to find where Postman saves collection files to by default when online syncing is disabled. I am not trying to export my collection as a JSON file.
I've looked in %LocalAppData%, My Documents, and Program Files, but I don't see where Postman saves its collection data.
It looks like Postman uses LevelDB. On Windows, I found my Postman DB located at:
%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\Postman\IndexedDB\
ps: %HOMEPATH% is path for C:\Users\xxxx\
also worth mentioning: %APPDATA% is a shortcut for C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\
According to Piere F, macOS users can find it under:
~/Library/Application Support/Postman/IndexedDB
ps: Note ~ is path for /Users/userAccount/
According to David, Ubuntu users can find it under:
~/.config/Postman/IndexedDB
Postman is using Chromium offline storage capabilities because at the end it's a SPA running inside Chromium (Electron technology).
From Postman's top menubar:
Select View → Show Dev Tools
Select the Application tab
In the sidebar, open Storage → IndexedDB → postman - file:// → collection_requests
In windows, postman v9.6.2 I was able to restore collections by pasting the IndexedDB folder in the following path:
\AppData\Roaming\Postman\Partitions\<GUID>\
On Mac: The json files were automatically backed up (/Users//Library/Application Support/Postman/backup-YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ.json) but it is not documented anywhere.
You just have to reimport them
This support documentation helped me recover my collections after the postman application stopped working.
https://support.postman.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035071313-How-to-recover-my-data-
If you weren't logged in to the app and using it offline or in the
Scratch Pad mode then your data won't get synced to our servers and
stays local to your instance. In this case, try following the steps
below:
Look for the backup files under the following folder:
%appdata%\Postman\​for Windows ~/Library/Application
Support/Postman​for macOS ~/.config/Postman​ for Linux
Backup file names will be similar to
backup-2020-02-26T23-13-43.082Z.json (date or time will be different
for you).
Alternatively, if you just want to look at the collection, you can export it into json format from the collection menu.
We work offline. So for Postman Scratchpad (official offline usage):
On Windows: %HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\Postman\Partitions\
On Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Postman/Partitions/
Simply backup or share the entire directory when you want to synch.
For the version Postman from Google Chrome extension, you need copy all files from path:
"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Storage\ext\fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop\def\IndexedDB\chrome-extension_..."
The files inside path above contains all history and collections from Postman
Linux Chrome or Chromium Postman extension storage path Location
/home/{USER}/.config/chromium/Default/Storage/ext/fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop/
Thanks.
If you are using a snapped Postman on Linux, let me save you some time.
Copy all the content from your source snapped Postman UNDER (as the target GUID can be different)
/home/username/snap/postman/<id>/.config/Postman/Partitions/<standalone GUID>
to your target snapped Postman UNDER
/home/username/snap/postman/<a different id>/.config/Postman/Partitions/<a different standalone GUID>
Make sure you respect the target postman id and partition GUID.
Win10:
You have to back up your old Postman
C:\Users%user%\AppData\Roaming\Postman\IndexedDB
Then copy it to the same location of the new Postman installation.
This will recover all your collections.
In Debian-like systems, using Postman v7, I found a backup of all the collections and environments saved as JSON in ~/.config/Postman with the prefix backup-.
eg: ~/.config/Postman/backup-timestamp.json
Also, found a recent support article in Postman documentation:
How to recover my data
Windows 10, I copy these folder to another and worked.
C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\IndexedDB\chrome-extension_coohjcphdfgbiolnekdpbcijmhambjff_0.indexeddb.leveldb

Adobe Media Encoder CC2014 SDK / API / WebService

I would like to know if it's currently possible to access AME SDK or API ?
I seen binaries named : - ame_webservice_console.exe - AMEWebService.exe (it's a windows service for media trans-coding)
But there isn't any documentation about that. It is implemented or in the roadmap for developers?
I explain the goal : I would like automatically schedule a transcode from a external project throught the AME Webservice without import manually the file by the menu. That's really interesting to mount an external and centralized render farm cluster.
You can find AMEWinService.exe and AMEWebService.exe inside Adobe Media Encoder CC(inside program files)
The things you have to do
1.Start the AME windows service by AMEWinService -install command in your command line(run as administrator)
2.Start the AME Web service in the same way
3.Now you can enjoy the service at localhost:8080 , if you want change this configuration you can done it at ame_webservice_config.ini file
4.for client side application development you can refer the below document
https://github.com/sp00x/node-adobe-media-encoder-webservice/blob/master/dist/ame-webservice-client.d.ts

How do I connect to an external API using Joomla 1.5?

I want to connect to an external API from my joomla website.
The external api is a reservation system which I would like to view info and update content. They have provided a URL for testing as well as documentation of the various functions available.
Not sure what to do from here. I have built many Joomla components before but never had time to learn XML-RPC and how it works.
I have looked at mastering Joomla 1.5 extensions and framework development but couldn't get what I wanted from it. Any help appreciated.
If you have built MVC components in the past, then the hard part is done. XML-RPC is not all that different from a typical cURL request in that you build a set of parameters that are sent to a remote server that then returns a response. The main difference is that the request and response are formatted in XML. There is a pretty good overview here - http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/luis20010329.php3?print_mode=1
If you want to connect to an external link from your joomla, you can modify the link type (menu item) to "wrapper" (Displays an iframe to wrap an external page or site into Joomla! ), when you are done, in the right side there are some Basic parameters, you can write there the link, and add the width and height to it.

Is there a way to bind my flex builder to my django application

I am trying to create simple flex application, which uses django as a back-end part. Have a question:
Usually when I run my application Flex Builder creates a file in a directory on my local PC and then opens a browser and points to it. Everything was fine, but when I decided to link django server to flex applications via xml data providers I started to get security errors. (Related to absence of crossdomain.xml). When I created the file and put it on the server:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- http://www.foo.com/crossdomain.xml -->
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="http://127.0.0.1:8000"/>
<allow-access-from domain="127.0.0.1"/>
</cross-domain-policy>
Then tried the application again, I got error in console of my FB Error: Request for resource at http://127.0.0.1:8000/go/active/ by requestor from file:///Users/oleg/Documents/FB3/usersList/bin-debug/usersList.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
I don't know how to fix the error. But also the question is there a way to configure FB3 to put my swf files to the server directly, so I will not need any crossdomain?
Thanks
Oleg
We struggled with this a lot. The Flex security stuff didn't strike me as well built, but perhaps we just had different approaches in mind than Adobe's developers. The solution that worked for us was to serve both the SWF and the dynamic data from the same host and port.
On our development boxes, we tell Apache to serve the SWF from a directory in the workspace, and the dynamic data from a local copy of the app. When we push to production, SWF and app get pushed simultaneously to the same virtual host.
If that's inconvenient for you, the Apache ProxyPass directive can be used to make Apache front for other servers. I've not used that in production, but it's been very handy for developer setups.
I don't know a way to get FlexBuilder to automatically deploy your changed SWF; you could certainly look into an automation approach (like Maven and Flex-Mojos) to make that happen.
That said, getting rid of that error is usually just a matter of adding a policy file to the server.
The second error is caused because you're trying to fetch http resources from a "file" location. My recommendation is that you change your Flex Builder project so it outputs to a location within the Django web site, rather than to the flex-bin directory. This setting can be changed in the properties dialog of the project. Then, you should be able to have your front-end and back-end share the same protocol and domain.
