XSLT Reading from File

I have a code that reads my Xslt templates from Resources but I have to make it reads from seperated files in root directory of application. So this is my code:
docs[0] = new DocumentReferenceType
{
ID = new IDType { Value = new Guid().ToString() },
IssueDate = new IssueDateType { Value = DateTime.Now },
DocumentType = new DocumentTypeType { Value = "xslt" },
Attachment = new AttachmentType
{
EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject = new EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObjectType
{
filename = "customxslt.xslt",
encodingCode = "Base64",
mimeCode = "applicationxml",
format = "",
characterSetCode = "UTF-8",
Value = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(Properties.Resource1.XSLTFile)
}
}
};
return docs;
What should I write to "Properties.Resource1.XSLTFile" read from XSLTFile.xslt in root directory? I tried to write this:
string _filePath = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
_filePath += #"\XSLTFile.xslt";
And I changed "Properties.Resource1.XSLTFile" with "_filePath " there but it gave me this error: "HTML conversion failed: XSLT compilation error"

i got help and i am sharing maybe there will be someone who needs it
string _filePath = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
_filePath += #"\xslt\earsiv.xslt";
string xs = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(_filePath);
docs[0] = new DocumentReferenceType
{
ID = new IDType { Value = new Guid().ToString() },
IssueDate = new IssueDateType { Value = DateTime.Now },
DocumentType = new DocumentTypeType { Value = "xslt" },
Attachment = new AttachmentType
{
EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject = new EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObjectType
{
filename = "customxslt.xslt",
encodingCode = "Base64",
mimeCode = "applicationxml",
format = "",
characterSetCode = "UTF-8",
Value = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xs)
}
}
};
return docs;

How to do show list of an Item in alexa skill using Alexa.Net.APL?

I am trying to display list of item on Echo show. Am using Alexa.Net.APL C# and below is what i have done so far but is not displaying i will appreciate help.
This is my method that generate Directive
private RenderDocumentDirective BuildDirective(string bg = "")
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(bg))
{
bg = "https://i.ibb.co/5cWztFH/brown-on-seashore-near-mountain-1007657.jpg";
}
var mainLayout = new Layout(
new AlexaTextList
{
BackgroundImageSource = bg,
HeaderTitle = "Alexa text list header title",
HeaderSubtitle = "sub",
HeaderDivider = true,
BackgroundScale = new APLValue<Scale>(Scale.BestFill),
BackgroundAlign = new APLValue<string>("center"),
BackgroundColor = new APLValue<string>("transparent"),
ListItems = new APLValue<List<AlexaTextListItem>>()
{
Value = new List<AlexaTextListItem>
{
new AlexaTextListItem
{
PrimaryText = "Hello world! 1"
},
new AlexaTextListItem
{
PrimaryText = "Hello world! 2"
},
new AlexaTextListItem
{
PrimaryText = "Hello world! 3"
}
}
}
}
);
var renderDocument = new RenderDocumentDirective
{
Token = "randomToken",
Document = new APLDocument
{
MainTemplate = mainLayout
},
};
return renderDocument;
}
Here is where am calling it
var response = ResponseBuilder.Ask(d, rp, session);
var dr = BuildDirective();
response.Response.Directives.Add(dr);
return response;

AWS SDK .NET DynamoDB ASYNC

I am trying to use AWS SDK for .NET Core.
Create a table to count views on videos.
Add a view count for a day.
Increment existing count for a day.
Query for video counts between two dates for a video.
.NET Core AWS SDK uses Async methods which are not documented in AWS. There is a feature request on their github page for this to happen.... but it is dated from last year. (https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-net/issues/787)
CREATE THE TABLE
This works and creates a table on the AWS Console.
var ctRequest = new CreateTableRequest
{
AttributeDefinitions = new List<AttributeDefinition>()
{
new AttributeDefinition
{
AttributeName = "ViewUid",
AttributeType = ScalarAttributeType.S
},
new AttributeDefinition
{
AttributeName = "ViewDate",
AttributeType = ScalarAttributeType.S
}
},
KeySchema = new List<KeySchemaElement>
{
new KeySchemaElement
{
AttributeName = "ViewUid",
KeyType = KeyType.HASH //Partition key
},
new KeySchemaElement
{
AttributeName = "ViewDate",
KeyType = KeyType.RANGE
}
},
ProvisionedThroughput = new ProvisionedThroughput
{
ReadCapacityUnits = 5,
WriteCapacityUnits = 6
},
TableName = _settings.AWSDynamoDBViewCountTable
};
var response = _client.CreateTableAsync(ctRequest).Result;
UPDATE AND ITEM WITH AUTO-INCREMENT A FIELD
This, sadly, is where i hit issues. The old docs are found here under the Atomic Counter section. (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LowLevelDotNetItemCRUD.html)
Invalid ConditionExpression: Syntax error; token: \"SET\", near: \"SET
VC\"
var viewData = new Document();
viewData["ViewUid"] = videoUid; //Table entry UID
viewData["VideoId"] = videoId; // Video ID
viewData["ViewDate"] = date;
viewData["ViewCount"] = 0;
//Document result = await _viewCountTable.PutItemAsync(viewData);
Expression expr = new Expression();
expr.ExpressionStatement = "SET #VC = #VC + :val";
expr.ExpressionAttributeValues[":val"] = 1;
expr.ExpressionAttributeNames["#VC"] = "ViewCount";
var updateConfig = new UpdateItemOperationConfig() {
ConditionalExpression = expr,
ReturnValues = ReturnValues.UpdatedNewAttributes
};
var result = await _viewCountTable.UpdateItemAsync(viewData, updateConfig);
return result;
QUERY FOR DATE RANGE
Get one video's view count for a date range.
string queryTimeSpanStartString = dateFrom.ToString(AWSSDKUtils.ISO8601DateFormat);
string queryTimeSpanEndString = dateTo.ToString(AWSSDKUtils.ISO8601DateFormat);
var request = new QueryRequest
{
TableName = _settings.AWSDynamoDBViewCountTable,
KeyConditions = new Dictionary<string, Condition>()
{
{
"VideoId", new Condition()
{
ComparisonOperator = "EQ",
AttributeValueList = new List<AttributeValue>()
{
new AttributeValue { S = videoId }
}
}
},
{
"ViewDate",
new Condition
{
ComparisonOperator = "BETWEEN",
AttributeValueList = new List<AttributeValue>()
{
new AttributeValue { S = queryTimeSpanStartString },
new AttributeValue { S = queryTimeSpanEndString }
}
}
}
}
};
var response = await _client.QueryAsync(request);
Any help would be appreciated.

I was able to update the ViewCount with the following code:
string tableName = "videos";
var request = new UpdateItemRequest
{
Key = new Dictionary<string, AttributeValue>() { { "ViewUid", new AttributeValue { S = "replaceVideoIdhere" } } },
ExpressionAttributeNames = new Dictionary<string, string>()
{
{"#Q", "ViewCount"}
},
ExpressionAttributeValues = new Dictionary<string, AttributeValue>()
{
{":incr", new AttributeValue {N = "1"}}
},
UpdateExpression = "SET #Q = #Q + :incr",
TableName = tableName
};
var response = await _dynamoDbClient.UpdateItemAsync(request);
I created a table called "videos" with a partition key named "ViewUid" as string. Let me know if this works for you.

ElasticSearch filtered query _search 400 error response

I am trying to use filter with search query. Search requset works correctly without filter. But using filter I get 400 error as response.
This is type mapping:
var mapp = new
{
mappings = new
{
posts = new
{
properties = new
{
FullText = new
{
type = "string",
analyzer = "russian"
},
Title = new
{
type = "string",
analyzer = "russian"
},
PostPubDate = new
{
type = "date"
},
Link = new
{
type = "string",
index = "not_analyzed"
},
RubricsIds = new
{
type = "integer"
},
ObjectsIds = new
{
type = "integer"
},
SourceId = new
{
type = "integer"
}
}
}
}
};
This is a request to index with filtered query:
string url = "http://localhost:9200/neg_collector/posts/_search";
var request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(url);
var o = new
{
size = 20,
query = new
{
filtered = new
{
query = new
{
query_string = new
{
fields = new[] { "Title" },
query = search_query
}
},
filter = new
{
#bool = new
{
should = new
{
term = new
{
SourceId = sIds
}
}
}
}
}
}
};
request.Method = "POST";
var jsonObj = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(o);
var data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(jsonObj);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.ContentLength = data.Length;
I want to use an array of integers to filter result with certain SourceId-s. But I got error 400.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you

So the problem was that this syntax was for elasticsearch 2 version (And it worked nice on another computer). Here I have ElasticSearch 5 and should use another was of filtering:
var o = new
{
size = 20,
query = new
{
#bool = new
{
must = new
{
query_string = new
{
fields = new[] { "Title" },
query = search_query
}
},
filter = new
{
terms = new
{
SourceId = new[] {10,11,12}
}
}
}
}
};
