I have the following custom command written in javascript for nightwatch.js. How can I translate this to using jquery?
exports.command = function (classId, indexIfNotZero) {
this.browser.execute(function (classId, indexIfNotZero) {
if (classId.charAt(0) == '.') {
classId = classId.substring(1);
}
var items = document.getElementsByClassName(classId);
if (items.length) {
var item = indexIfNotZero ? items[indexIfNotZero] : items[0];
if (item) {
item.click();
return true;
}
}
return false;
//alert(rxp);
}, [classId, indexIfNotZero], function (result) {
console.info(result);
});
};
There are a few things that I see that are causing your issues.
First, you have variable shadowing that may cause issues. Your global export command has 2 variables (classId and indexIfNotZero) and your internal execute command has the same parameter names.
Second, for custom commands, the this variable is actually the browser. So instead of doing this.browser.execute, you need to just call this.execute.
As for a complete working code example, here you go:
'use strict';
var ClickElementByIndex = function(className, index) {
if (!index) {
index = 0;
}
this.execute(function(selector, i) {
var $item = $(selector + ':eq(' + i + ')');
if (!!$item) {
$item.click();
return true;
}
return false;
}, [className, index], function(result) {
console.info(result);
});
};
exports.command = ClickElementByIndex;
Note that you do need jQuery available in the global scope of your app for this to work.

Durring some experiments with protractorJS i noticed that there is no easy way to extend (inherit) ElementFinder object from protractor to add own functions.
For example, i want to create object Checkbox, that would have additional method - check() - should switch checkbox depending on result of isSelected().
I come up with the code -
var ElementFinder = require('protractor/lib/element.js').ElementFinder;
var ElementArrayFinder = require('protractor/lib/element.js').ElementArrayFinder;
class CheckBox extends ElementFinder {
constructor(loc) {
var getWebElements = function () {
var ptor = browser;
var locator = loc;
return ptor.waitForAngular().then(function() {
if (locator.findElementsOverride) {
return locator.findElementsOverride(ptor.driver, null, ptor.rootEl);
} else {
return ptor.driver.findElements(locator);
}
});
}
var ArrayFinderFull = new ElementArrayFinder(browser, getWebElements, loc);
super(browser, ArrayFinderFull);
}
check() {
return this.isSelected().then(selected => selected? this.click() : null)
}
}
But getWebElements is copy-paste from protractor/element.js -
https://github.com/angular/protractor/blob/3.1.0/lib/element.js#L131
This copy-paste flustrating me. I think there should be more proper way to extend ElementFinder.
Does anyone inherited ElementFinder in protractorJS?
I'm not sure this would help, but here is something we did recently to have a takewhile() method available on an ElementArrayFinder. We've put the following into onPrepare():
protractor.ElementArrayFinder.prototype.takewhile = function(whileFn) {
var self = this;
var getWebElements = function() {
return self.getWebElements().then(function(parentWebElements) {
var list = [];
parentWebElements.forEach(function(parentWebElement, index) {
var elementFinder =
protractor.ElementFinder.fromWebElement_(self.ptor_, parentWebElement, self.locator_);
list.push(whileFn(elementFinder, index));
});
return protractor.promise.all(list).then(function(resolvedList) {
var filteredElementList = [];
for (var index = 0; index < resolvedList.length; index++) {
if (!resolvedList[index]) {
break;
}
filteredElementList.push(parentWebElements[index])
}
return filteredElementList;
});
});
};
return new protractor.ElementArrayFinder(this.ptor_, getWebElements, this.locator_);
};
And now we can use takewhile on the result of element.all():
element.all(by.repeater("row in rows")).takewhile(function (elm) {
return elm.getText().then(function (text) {
return some_condition_to_be_true;
});
});
Now it is much simplier to extend ElementFinder, i calling this - page fragments.
I even created lib to solve this issue (PRs welcome!) - https://github.com/Xotabu4/protractor-element-extend
For now it only works with ElementFinder, but i want to be able to extend
ElementArrayFinders as well (planned for 2.0.0 version)
UPDATE
Support for ElementArrayFinder inheritance is added.
I cannot find an proper example for the love of my life on how to do this or even if this is possible. Based on my pieced together understanding from fragments of exmaples, I have come up with the following structure
var t = function()
{
this.nestedOne = function()
{
this.nest = function()
{
alert("here");
}
}
}
t.nestedOne.nest();
However this is not working (obviously). I would greatly appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction!
That is simply done with:
var t = {
nestedOne: {
nest: function() {
alert('here');
}
}
};
Your code otherwise doesn't make sense. this inside function doesn't refer to the function itself, it refers to the object context that the function is invoked in. And you are not even invoking the functions in your code.
If I say obj.func() then this inside func will be obj for that call. So assigning this.asd = true will assign true to that object's "asd" property.
If you wanted to do a nested class, it looks very different:
ClassA = (function() {
function ClassA() {
}
ClassA.prototype.method1 = function() {
};
function ClassB() {
}
ClassB.prototype.method1 = function() {
};
return ClassA;
}())
only ClassA can now make instances of ClassB. This should achieve same goals as nested classes in java.
See http://jsfiddle.net/CstUH/
function t(){
function f(){
this.nest = function()
{
alert("here");
}
}
this.nestedOne = new f();
}
var myt=new t();
myt.nestedOne.nest()
Edit 1:
You can also use
new t().nestedOne.nest()
instead of
var myt=new t();
myt.nestedOne.nest()
(http://jsfiddle.net/CstUH/1/)
Edit 2:
Or even more condensed:
function t(){
this.nestedOne = new function(){
this.nest = function(){
alert("here");
}
}
}
new t().nestedOne.nest()
http://jsfiddle.net/CstUH/2/
In JS functions are prime class objects, and you can access them directly in the code [i.e. without using reflection or so].
The code you put inside t body would be performed when actually executing t:
t();
You wrote t.nestedOne,nest(), but t has no nestedOne property - you should do like this:
var t = {
nestedOne : {
nest : function()
{
alert("here");
}
}
};
t.nestedOne.nest();
I advice you to have a trip on John Resig's Learning Advanced JavaScript tutorial, it was very enlightening for me.
A simple callback handler I wrote today as an example of how I do deep nesting. I apologize if it's not the bees knees when it comes to code style, it made the concept a little clearer for me.
function test () {
this.that = this;
this.root = this;
this.jCallback = new Array(new Array()); // 2d
this.jCallbackCount = -1;
this.str = "hello";
// Callback handler...
this.command = {
that : this, // let's keep a reference to who's above us on the food chain
root : this.root, // takes us back to the main object
// add : function() { var that = this; console.log(that.that.str); },
add : function(targetFnc, newFunc) {
var that = this;
var home = that.that; // pretty much root but left in as an example of chain traversal.
var root = this.root; // useful for climbing back up the function chain
// console.log(that.that.str);
home.jCallbackCount++;
// target, addon, active
home.jCallback[home.jCallback.length] = { 'targetFunc' : targetFnc, 'newFunc' : newFunc, 'active' : true, 'id': home.jCallbackCount};
console.log('cbacklength: ' + home.jCallback.length);
console.log('added callback targetFunction:[' + targetFnc + ']');
return home.jCallbackCount; // if we want to delete this later...
},
run : function(targetFnc) {
var that = this;
var home = that.that;
console.log('running callback check for: ' + targetFnc + ' There is : ' + (home.jCallbackCount + 1) + 'in queue.');
console.log('length of callbacks is ' + home.jCallback.length);
for(i=0;i < home.jCallback.length - 1;i++)
{
console.log('checking array for a matching callback [' + targetFnc + ']...');
console.log('current item: ' + home.jCallback[i]['targetFunc'] );
if( home.jCallback[i]['targetFunc'] == targetFnc )
{
// matched!
home.jCallback[i]['newFunc']();
}
// console.log(that.that.jCallback[i].targetFunction);
}
}
};
}
test.prototype = {
say : function () {
var that = this;
console.log('inside');
// that.command('doSay');
that.command.run('doSay');
console.log(that.str);
}
} // end proto
// BEGIN TESTING **************************************************************************
// BEGIN TESTING **************************************************************************
// BEGIN TESTING **************************************************************************
var testing = new test();
testing.command.add('doSay', function () { console.log('213123123'); } );
testing.command.add('doSay', function () { console.log('12sad31'); } );
testing.command.add('doSay', function () { console.log('asdascccc'); } );
testing.say();

note: to view console output, just open inspector in chrome and click on the "console" tab.
The code looks like this
function Scripts() {this.FindById = function (id) {
this.FindById.constructor.prototype.value = function () {
return document.getElementById(id).value;
}}}
var Control = new Scripts();
Now when i say Control.FindById("T1").value(). I am not able to get the textInput("T1")'s value.
It seems that your code is a bit more complicated then it should be ;-)
Personally I would write it this way (not tested):
function Scripts() {
this.findById = function(id) {
var el = document.getElementById(id);
return {
value: function() {
return el.value;
}
}
}
}
The findById() now closes over a node and returns an interface that can return its value.
Also, your idea sounds a lot like Singleton, so you wouldn't even need the extra Scripts constructor:
var Control = {
findById: function(id) {
var el = document.getElementById(id);
return {
value: function() {
return el.value;
}
}
}
}
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/YYkD7/
Try this:
function Scripts() {this.FindById = function (id) {
this.FindById.constructor.prototype.value = function () {
return document.getElementById(id).value
}}}
You didn't close the last "}" :-)
I want to test this function:
/js/lib/front.js
var Front = function(){
this.onSignUp = function(){
if (!Form.assertInput("email")) {
$("input[name=email]").focus();
this.showHiddenMessage("Email not set.");
return false;
}
}
}
I have in:
/js/lib/form.js
function Form() {
this.assertInput = function (name, defaultValue) {
var text = $("input[name=" + name + "]").val();
if (defaultValue != null) {
if (defaultValue && text == defaultValue)
return false;
}
if(this.trim(text)) return true;
return false;
}
}
This simple test passing:
test("Front", function() {
var front = new Front()
ok(front);
});
But if I write something like this:
test("On Sign Up ", function() {
var front = new Front()
equal(front.onSignUp(),false,"passing test");
});
I have error:
Died on test #1: Form.assertInput is not a function
I don't understand, what I need test in function like this and how include function inside another function?
I've saved a working fiddle here. As a side note, you might want to check out a tutorial on using qUnit, here.One thing that you need to pay attention to is when you're declaring your functions. It's saying Form.assertInput is not a function because you can't access it like that. You need to use the this keyword, which refers to current context. The code should be something like this:
var Form = function () {
//good to have assertInput first if you're using it in a later function
this.assertInput = function (name, defaultValue) {
var text = $("input[name=" + name + "]").val();
if (defaultValue != null) {
//safer to explicitly close your if statements with {}
if (defaultValue && text == defaultValue) {
return false;
}
}
if ($.trim(text)) { return true; }
return false;
};
this.showHiddenMessage = function (message) {
alert(message);
};
this.onSignUp = function() {
//this will point to the current context, in this case it will be Form class
if (!this.assertInput("email")) {
$("input[name=email]").focus();
this.showHiddenMessage("Email not set.");
return false;
}
};
};
Also in the example code that you gave you're missing the Front class. So I created a dummy one in my fiddle like this:
var Front = function() {};
Here are the tests that were run:
$(document).ready(function() {
test("Front", function() {
var front = new Front();
ok(front);
});
test("On Sign Up ", function() {
var form = new Form();
equal(form.onSignUp(), false, "passing test");
});
});
I have a json object retrieved from server in my $(document).ready(...); that has an string that I would like to resolve to a function also defined within $(document).ready(...); so, for example:
$(document).ready(function{
$.getJSON(/*blah*/,function(data){/*more blah*/});
function doAdd(left,right) {
return left+right;
}
function doSub(left,right) {
return left-right;
}
});
with json string:
{"doAdd":{"left":10,"right":20}}
One way I thought about was creating an associative array of the function before loading the json:
var assocArray=...;
assocArray['doAdd'] = doAdd;
assocArray['doSub'] = doSub;
Using eval or window[](); are no good as the function may not be called for some time, basically I want to link/resolve but not execute yet.
Change your JSON to
{method: "doAdd", parameters : {"left":10,"right":20}}
Then do
var method = eval(json.method);
// This doesn't call it. Just gets the pointer
Or (haven't tried this)
var method = this[json.method]
How about something like this?
$(function(){
// Function to be called at later date
var ressolvedFunc = null;
// Ajax call
$.getJSON(/*blah*/,function(data){
// Generate one function from another
ressolvedFunc = (function(data) {
var innerFunc;
var left = data.left;
var right = data.right;
// Detect action
for (action in data) {
if (action == "doAdd")
innerFunc = function() {
return left + right;
};
else
innerFunc = function() {
return left - right;
};
}
return innerFunc;
})(data);
});
});
The anonymous function returns fresh function, with the new values stored within the enclosure. This should allow you to call the function at later date with the data previously retrieved from the GET request.

try this:
var doX = (function() {
