I'm writing a weather app in Xamarin.Form. I am using the Yahoo API. I have no problem getting the weather by the city name parameter. However, when I change the code to use longitude and latitude, the weather does not appear.
To download the weather I use the example from the page: https://developer.yahoo.com/weather/documentation.html#oauth-csharp
I processed it in the following way:
lSign = string.Format(
"format={0}&" +
"lat={1}&" +
"lon={2}&" +
"oauth_consumer_key={3}&" +
"oauth_nonce={4}&" +
"oauth_signature_method={5}&" +
"oauth_timestamp={6}&" +
"oauth_version={7}&" +
"u={8}",
cFormat,
szerokosc,
dlugosc,
cConsumerKey,
lNonce,
cOAuthSignMethod,
lTimes,
cOAuthVersion,
jednostka.ToString().ToLower()
(...)
url = cURL + "?lat=" + szerokosc + "&lon=" + dlugosc + "&u=" + jednostka.ToString().ToLower() + "&format=" + cFormat;
According to the documentation, lSign is used for authentication. It should not be changed, remove these "lat={1}&" + "lon={2}&" from that strings.
It says Please don't simply change value of any parameter without
re-sorting.
The location information should be involved in the request url and the authorization information is added in the header.
// Add Authorization
lClt.Headers.Add ( "Authorization", _get_auth () );
// The request URL
lURL = cURL + "?" + "lat=" + szerokosc + "&lon=" + dlugosc + "&format=" + cFormat;
Unfortunately, the simple removal of " lat = {1} & " + " lon = {2} & " from variable lSign does not solve the problem.
For example, to get weather data by the city name I use:
lSign = string.Format(
"format={0}&" +
"location={1}&" +
"oauth_consumer_key={2}&" +
"oauth_nonce={3}&" +
"oauth_signature_method={4}&" +
"oauth_timestamp={5}&" +
"oauth_version={6}&" +
"u={7}",
cFormat,
miasto,
cConsumerKey,
lNonce,
cOAuthSignMethod,
lTimes,
cOAuthVersion,
jednostka.ToString().ToLower()
and
url = cURL + "?location=" + Uri.EscapeDataString(miasto) + "&u=" + jednostka.ToString().ToLower() + "&format=" + cFormat;
and
string headerString = _get_auth();
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType] = "application/" + cFormat;
webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.Authorization] = headerString;
webClient.Headers.Add("X-Yahoo-App-Id", cAppID);
byte[] reponse = webClient.DownloadData(url);
string lOut = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(reponse);

I am trying to add some large string into string type varriable.But it gives an error.
string SuccessUrl = "~/Customer/Success.aspx?URL=" + Server.UrlEncode("Transactionid="
+ Transactionid + "&Amount=" + Amount + "&Name=" + Name +
"&EmailOfPayer=" + EmailOfPayer + "&bussness=" + business + "&CompanyName=" + CompanyName
+ "&PaymentDate=" + paymentDateTime +"&SecuritiesandComplianceFee=" + SecuritiesandComplianceFee
+"&Status=" + Convert.ToInt32(Status) + "&BackmyUri=" + BackmyUri);
I have an error because of the last varriable i.e. BackmyUri. The varriable have the string value as given below.
string BackmyUri = "http://localhost:11181/Payment.aspx"
it gives an error .
Input string was not in a correct format.
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
Input string was not in a correct format. is most likely the default error message for int.Parse() and `Convert.ToInt32' . You should really check that. Another helpful thing for us would be to show us an example that makes it error, show the result of:
var x = "Transactionid=" + Transactionid + "&Amount=" + Amount + "&Name=" + Name +
"&EmailOfPayer=" + EmailOfPayer + "&bussness=" + business + "&CompanyName=" + CompanyName
+ "&PaymentDate=" + paymentDateTime +"&SecuritiesandComplianceFee=" + SecuritiesandComplianceFee
+"&Status=" + Convert.ToInt32(Status) + "&BackmyUri=" + BackmyUri
How can I find the coordinates of a pharmacy by it name and location?
I'm trying to search with the Google geocode API like this:
var pharmacyName = "Farmácia Ereirense";
var address = "Cartaxo, Santarém";
var url = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=" + pharmacyName + ", " + address + "&sensor=false";
but I only got ZERO_RESULTS on the GeoResponse Status, and if I google "Farmácia Ereirense, Cartaxo, Santarém" it found the right location...
I already tried to do:
var pharmacyName = "Farmácia Ereirense";
var address = "Cartaxo, Santarém";
var url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/xml?name=" + pharmacyName + ", " + address + "&key=" + apiKey;
but I got the INVALID_REQUEST result.
Documentation I based on
Finally I found the solution! We can do a Text Search request like this:
var pharmacyName = "Farmácia Ereirense";
var address = "Cartaxo, Santarém";
var url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/xml?query=" + pharmacyName + ", " + address + "&key=" + apiKey;
And it works just fine, like Google's search.

I'm running Selenium with C# for my automation testing on multiple browsers (IE, FF, Chrome) and there is one part of my test that passes for Chrome but not Firefox.
Is there a way to detect the browser type that is currently being used during the automated test?
You can install UAParser from Nugget :
https://www.nuget.org/packages/UAParser/
It will read the client header and Parse it.
Exemple:
//string uaString = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9B206 Safari/7534.48.3";
// Request the header
string uaString= HttpContext.Current.Request.UserAgent.ToString();
// get a parser with the embedded regex patterns
var uaParser = Parser.GetDefault();
// get a parser using externally supplied yaml definitions
// var uaParser = Parser.FromYamlFile(pathToYamlFile);
// var uaParser = Parser.FromYaml(yamlString);
ClientInfo c = uaParser.Parse(uaString);
Console.WriteLine(c.UserAgent.Family); // => "Mobile Safari"
Console.WriteLine(c.UserAgent.Major); // => "5"
Console.WriteLine(c.UserAgent.Minor); // => "1"
Console.WriteLine(c.OS.Family); // => "iOS"
Console.WriteLine(c.OS.Major); // => "5"
Console.WriteLine(c.OS.Minor); // => "1"
Console.WriteLine(c.Device.Family); // => "iPhone"
Use the following code
System.Web.HttpBrowserCapabilities browser = Request.Browser;
string s = "Browser Capabilities\n"
+ "Type = " + browser.Type + "\n"
+ "Name = " + browser.Browser + "\n"
+ "Version = " + browser.Version + "\n"
+ "Major Version = " + browser.MajorVersion + "\n"
+ "Minor Version = " + browser.MinorVersion + "\n"
+ "Platform = " + browser.Platform + "\n"
+ "Is Beta = " + browser.Beta + "\n"
+ "Is Crawler = " + browser.Crawler + "\n"
+ "Is AOL = " + browser.AOL + "\n"
+ "Is Win16 = " + browser.Win16 + "\n"
+ "Is Win32 = " + browser.Win32 + "\n"
+ "Supports Frames = " + browser.Frames + "\n"
+ "Supports Tables = " + browser.Tables + "\n"
+ "Supports Cookies = " + browser.Cookies + "\n"
+ "Supports VBScript = " + browser.VBScript + "\n"
+ "Supports JavaScript = " +
browser.EcmaScriptVersion.ToString() + "\n"
+ "Supports Java Applets = " + browser.JavaApplets + "\n"
+ "Supports ActiveX Controls = " + browser.ActiveXControls
+ "\n"
+ "Supports JavaScript Version = " +
browser["JavaScriptVersion"] + "\n";
I am trying to consume stripe.com api with restsharp, using the charge command
https://stripe.com/docs/api/php#create_charge
there's an opportunity to pass metadata as key value pairs but I don't seem to succeed
const string baseUrl = "https://api.stripe.com/";
const string endPoint = "v1/charges";
var apiKey = this.SecretKey;
var client = new RestClient(baseUrl) { Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator(apiKey, "") };
var request = new RestRequest(endPoint, Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("card", token);
request.AddParameter("amount", wc.totalToPayForStripe);
request.AddParameter("currency", "eur");
request.AddParameter("description", wc.crt.cartid + " - " + wc.co.oid);
request.AddParameter("metadata", "{cartid: " + wc.crt.cartid + ", oid: " + wc.co.oid + "}");
request.AddParameter("statement_description", "# " + wc.crt.cartid);
request.AddParameter("description", wc.crt.cartid + " - " + wc.co.oid);
Always getting the following error:
Invalid metadata: metadata must be a set of key-value pairs
Clearly I don't pass the key value pair the way I should but I can't find any restsharp documentation on that.
Anyone can help?
Try this:
const string baseUrl = "https://api.stripe.com/";
const string endPoint = "v1/charges";
var apiKey = this.SecretKey;
var client = new RestClient(baseUrl) { Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator(apiKey, "") };
var request = new RestRequest(endPoint, Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("card", token);
request.AddParameter("amount", wc.totalToPayForStripe);
request.AddParameter("currency", "eur");
request.AddParameter("description", wc.crt.cartid + " - " + wc.co.oid);
request.AddParameter("metadata[cartid]", wc.crt.cartid);
request.AddParameter("metadata[oid]", wc.co.oid);
request.AddParameter("statement_description", "# " + wc.crt.cartid);
request.AddParameter("description", wc.crt.cartid + " - " + wc.co.oid);
For some reason HTTP Post requests can not accept key-value objects and must be sent in this type of format. This isn't a stripe restriction, but HTTP in general.
I think it's telling you to enter them as such:
request.AddParameter("metadata", "[ { cartid: " + wc.crt.cartid + "} ,{ oid: " + wc.co.oid + " }]" );
I'm new in google analytic. I go through some regarding this. I found that there is no direct method to hit a windows application in google analytic. But i found some solutions in stackoverflow. I tried that, but didn't work for me. Below is the code that I'm using.
private void analyticsmethod4(string trackingId, string pagename)
{
Random rnd = new Random();
long timestampFirstRun, timestampLastRun, timestampCurrentRun, numberOfRuns;
// Get the first run time
timestampFirstRun = DateTime.Now.Ticks;
timestampLastRun = DateTime.Now.Ticks - 5;
timestampCurrentRun = 45;
numberOfRuns = 2;
// Some values we need
string domainHash = "123456789"; // This can be calcualted for your domain online

Stream data = client.OpenRead(statsRequest);
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(data);
string s = reader.ReadToEnd();
MessageBox.Show(s);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
This example is also got from this site itself. I don't know where was the problem. Please direct me, how can i make it. This is the output i'm getting "GIF89a".
Thanks

So it's working. The Google Analytics call loads a tiny GIF image, and the querystring parameters provided in the request trigger all the Google Analytics goodness. If you're getting a response back, you have registered your event successfully with Google.
