Stored procedure azure Cosmos DB returns empty collection

I tried to create a stored procedure using the sample sp creation code from Azure docs, but i couldn't fetch the collection details. It always returns null.
Stored Procedure
// SAMPLE STORED PROCEDURE
function sample(prefix) {
var collection = getContext().getCollection();
console.log(JSON.stringify(collection));
// Query documents and take 1st item.
var isAccepted = collection.queryDocuments(
collection.getSelfLink(),
'SELECT * FROM root r',
function (err, feed, options) {
if (err) throw err;
// Check the feed and if empty, set the body to 'no docs found',
// else take 1st element from feed
if (!feed || !feed.length) {
var response = getContext().getResponse();
response.setBody('no docs found');
}
else {
var response = getContext().getResponse();
var body = { prefix: prefix, feed: feed[0] };
response.setBody(JSON.stringify(body));
}
});
if (!isAccepted) throw new Error('The query was not accepted by the server.');
}
The console shows only this.
the results shows no doc found because of not getting collection.I have passed the partition key at time of execution via explorer.

I had a similar issue. I think the Azure portal doesn't execute stored procedures properly when the partition key is not a string.
In my case I had a partitionKey that is a number. When I executed the stored procedure via the portal I always got an empty resultSet, even though I had documents in my database. When I changed the structure a little, and made my partitionKey a string, the stored procedure worked fine.

Did you create the ToDoList Database with the Items Collection? Yo can do this from the Quick start blade in the Azure portal.
And then create an SP to run against that collection. There is no partition key required, so no additional params are required (leave blank).
The Collection is created without any documents. You may choose to add documents via the Query Explorer blade or via the sample ToDoList App that is available via the Quick start blade.

You are debugging in a wrong way.
It is perfectly fine to see "{\"spatial\":{}}" in your console log, even if the collection has items. Why? well because that is a property of that object.
So regarding what you said:
the results shows no doc found because of not getting collection
is false. I have the same console log text, but I have items in my collection.
I have 2 scenarios for why your stored procedure return no items:
I had the same issue trying on azure portal UI(in browser) and for my surprise I had to insert an item without the KEY in order that my stored procedure to see it.
On code you specify the partition as a string ie. new PartitionKey("/UserId") instead of your object ie. new PartitionKey(stock.UserId)

How to render data related specifically to a user when they login?

I'm working on a small application and I'm relatively new to programming. I've been using MEAN stack to start and have run into a snag. I have this code here that will render a name when a page is loaded.
<tr ng-repeat = "contact in users">
<td>{{contact.name}}</td>
</tr>
In my controller I have this code:
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.controller('AppCtrl', ['$scope', '$http', function($scope, $http) {
console.log("Hello World from controller");
var refresh = function() {
$http.get('/users').success(function(response) {
console.log("I got the data I requested");
$scope.users = response;
$scope.contact = "";
});
};
refresh();
And then in my server I have this
app.get('/users', function (req, res) {
console.log('I received a GET request');
db.users.find( {_id: mongojs.ObjectId("55563359e430458542c0f36f")}, function (err, docs) {
console.log(docs);
res.json(docs);
});
});
This works great when I want to render that user. However this only allows me to render one of my users names. And it's whichever one I hard code into the db.user.find. What I would like to do is figure out a way to render a user's name based of off some specific session/variable when they login. So essentially when a user logs in have the values specific to their credentials display I used this tutorial https://scotch.io/tutorials/easy-node-authentication-setup-and-local for a beginners authentication. I figured I would be able to take the session and then somehow pass it down to my get statement on the server but so far I haven't been able to figure it out. Any suggestion would be great even if it means me scrapping what I have.

Need to run code on save and log from Parse Cloud Code when updating PFObject's key in iOS app

I have a PFObject that has an array key. I can successfully call addObject: on this PFObject, and can confirm that the object has been added to the array key properly using an NSLog. However, when I try to save the PFObject to Parse, even though it says everything went successful, the changes are not shown in the Data Browser.
I have tried everything, and can even get this to work in an older version of my app, but for some reason it will not work anymore.
I posted another StackOverflow question about this here
The only response I got were some comments saying that I should trigger a "before save" function and log everything via Cloud Code. The problem is I don't know javascript, and I've been messing around with Cloud Code and nothing's happening.
Here is the code I am executing in my app:
[self.message addObject:currentUsersObjectId forKey:#"myArrayKey"];
And then I am using saveInBackgroundWithBlock:
I need to alter Cloud Code so that it will check the self.message object's "myArrayKey" before saving and log the results.
Edit 2:
Here is how I create currentUsersObjectId:
NSString *currentUsersObjectId = [[NSString alloc]init];
PFUser *user = [PFUser currentUser];
currentUsersObjectId = user.objectId;
Edit 3:
Here is the save block
[self.message saveInBackgroundWithBlock:^(BOOL succeeded, NSError *error) {
if (error) {
NSLog(#"An error has occurred.");
}
}];
Edit 4:
After adding Timothy's cloud code, the saveInBackgroundWithBlock: now does not successfully complete. Instead an error occurs, and the error object NSLogs as `"Error: Uncaught Tried to save an object with a pointer to a new, unsaved object. (Code: 141, Version: 1.2.17)" and also as:
Error Domain=Parse Code=141 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (Parse error 141.)" UserInfo=0x15dc4550 {code=141, error=Uncaught Tried to save an object with a pointer to a new, unsaved object.} {
code = 141;
error = "Uncaught Tried to save an object with a pointer to a new, unsaved object.";
}
Here is my complete Cloud Code file after adding Timothy's code:
Parse.Cloud.define('editUser', function(request, response) {
var userId = request.params.userId;
//newColText = request.params.newColText;
var User = Parse.Object.extend('_User'),
user = new User({ objectId: userId });
var currentUser = request.user;
var relation = user.relation("friendsRelation");
relation.add(currentUser);
Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey();
user.save().then(function(user) {
response.success(user);
}, function(error) {
response.error(error)
});
});
Parse.Cloud.beforeSave("Messages", function(request, response) {
var message = request.object;
// output just the ID so we can check it in the Data Browser
console.log("Saving message with ID:", message.id);
// output the whole object so we can see all the details including "didRespond"
console.log(message);
response.success();
});
// log the after-save too, to confirm it was saved
Parse.Cloud.afterSave("Messages", function(request, response) {
var message = request.object;
// output just the ID so we can check it in the Data Browser
console.log("Saved message with ID:", message.id);
// output the whole object so we can see all the details including "didRespond"
console.log(message);
response.success();
});

After much back and forth, I'm stumped as to why this isn't working for you. As for logging in Cloud Code, if you follow the guide on adding code you can add the following to your main.js and deploy it:
Parse.Cloud.beforeSave("Messages", function(request, response) {
var message = request.object;
// output just the ID so we can check it in the Data Browser
console.log("Saving message with ID:", message.id);
// output the whole object so we can see all the details including "didRespond"
console.log(message);
response.success();
});
// log the after-save too, to confirm it was saved
Parse.Cloud.afterSave("Messages", function(request, response) {
var message = request.object;
// output just the ID so we can check it in the Data Browser
console.log("Saved message with ID:", message.id);
// output the whole object so we can see all the details including "didRespond"
console.log(message);
response.success();
});
With those in place you have plenty of server-side logging that you can check.

I am adding my own answer in addition to Timothy's in case anyone else is having a problem similar to this. My app uses the following library to allow parse objects to be stored using NSUserDefaults: https://github.com/eladb/Parse-NSCoding
For whatever reason, after unarchiving the parse objects, they are not able to be saved properly to the Parse database. I had to query the database using the unarchived one's objectId and retrieve a fresh version of the object, and then I was able to successfully make changes to and save the retrieved object.
I have no idea why this is happening now. I have never had any problems until about two weeks ago when I tried to deploy a new version of my cloud code, and if I remember correctly, Parse wanted me to update the Parse SDK or the Cloud Code version before I could deploy it.
These changes must not be compatible with these categories.

'POST 400 bad request' error when updating parse.com table

I am getting a 'POST 400 bad request' error when trying to update a table on parse.com using JS SDK.
var Gallery = Parse.Object.extend("Gallery");
var gallery = new Gallery();
var activeArtworks = 0;
gallery.save(null, {
success: function(gallery) {
gallery.set("activeArtworks", activeArtworks);
gallery.save();
}
});
Please help!
I can't see how this is any different to the sample code provided by parse here

The sample code you reference creates all of its parameters before setting up the save() method. This is the step you're missing; you need to create the activeArtworks parameter on your gallery instance. Your update is failing because you're trying to update a property that was never created.
I would expect this code to work, though I didn't test it because parse.com requires you to set up an account to run any code, which is silly, and I didn't feel like creating one:
var Gallery = Parse.Object.extend("Gallery");
var gallery = new Gallery();
var activeArtworks = 0;
gallery.activeArtworks = []; // or some more appropriate default if you have one.
gallery.save(null, {
success: function(gallery) {
gallery.set("activeArtworks", activeArtworks);
gallery.save();
}
});
It might also be worth checking if there's any info in the headers of the 400 error (the debug console in your browser will show these in its Network tab). I would expect Parse to give you some sort of information to help you debug issues, and that's the only place it would fit for an HTTP error.

If you had use user.logIn(callback) function with Parse JS, maybe your session invalid. Please check your callback function error code, if error.code==209 (invalid session token), use Parse.User.logOut() and re-login again.
Like this:
if (error.code == 209) {
Parse.User.logOut();
user.logIn(loginCallback);
return;
}

I had this same issue and it was resolved after realising that the data type that I was posting was different to that specified in the columns that I had created.
In my case, I was trying to save an object when I had specified an array when creating the column in the class.

Finding saved data from mongo shell (no output)

Here is the code for initialization
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/gpsdb');
var db = mongoose.connection;
db.on('open', function () {
// now we can start talking
});
After successful opening, I am saving data like this, it's giving me no errors.
function saveGPSData(data){
var newData = new GPSData(data);
newData.save(function(err){
if(err)
return console.error(err);
});
}
Now in mongo shell, I am trying to retrieve that data but it's giving me empty output.
> use gpsdb
> db.GPSData.find();
>
It's giving me no output. Also can I found what models are there in gpsdb?
Here is the full source code http://pastebin.com/K7QPYAx8
JUST FOUND THAT in db folder there these files for my db created by mongodb
/data/db/gpsdb.0
/data/db/gpsdb.1
/data/db/gpsdb.n

A good place to start to get a quick answer is
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/mongoose-orm
the community is very responsive :)

In the shell I did the following
>use gpsdb
switched to gpsdb
>db show collections
gpsdatas
From here I found that collection name is gpsdatas...... Not sure why its adding extra (s) to my modal, although you can see from the code that I am setting Modal to
var GPSData = mongoose.model('GPSData', GPSDataSchema);
Now using the shell its working like this
>db.gpsdatas.find()
