So I have simple java based server backend. I would like to create an empty customer and use an id that is generated in my application, not the id that is assigned by braintree. I tried to use this approach:
String testId = "12345678";
log.info("Create customer with id: " + testId);
CustomerRequest customerRequest = new CustomerRequest()
.customerId(testId)
.firstName("Martin")
.lastName("Mojko");
braintreeGateway.customer().create(customerRequest);
However, the setter customerId is ignored and braintree assigns different id to this customer.
It is there any way to use own ids?
Full disclosure: I work at Braintree. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact support.
You should use .id instead of .customerId to assign your generated ID to your customer. The request will look something like this:
CustomerRequest request = new CustomerRequest()
.id(testId)
.firstName("Martin")
.lastName("Mojko");
Result<Customer> result = gateway.customer().create(request);
You probably have to store a mapping between your IDs and theirs yourself.
This is very typical of 3rd party services everywhere. After all, the ID you supply to them may not match their ID generation scheme or may already be in use so they can't just use it themselves.

Starting point:
I have a WebSphere with federated security (there is an Active Directory behind it).
I am trying to fetch a VMM user uid by his/her email address, but I a don't know how it's VMM (schema) attributes are mapped to the AD (schema) attributes of the underlying Active Directory entity (person, organizationalPerson objectClass, mail attribute.
(By describing it in a different way: If one have a look at the WAS console, in the "Users and Groups" -> "Manage Users" there is a table where there is an E-Mail column, so it is somehow mapped.
But, by clicking on the ( "Global Security" -> "(federated repositories) configure button" -> (there is a table, you can select the)) LDAP1 row, and checking the table in "Federated repositories property names to LDAP attributes mapping", I don't find that the 'E-Mail' column how has been mapped to the AD attribute. Maybe there is an implicit mapping?)
So, the starting question is this:
How to find this on the WAS console? Or, maybe via wsadmin (scripts)?
So, because of this, I tried to move forward and now I would try to find it using the VMM API, but I don't find in the official documentation the answer to the second question:
Is it possible to fetch somehow the assigned / available attributes of an WebSphere VMM entity (Virtual member manager)?
There is a lot of examples about how to fetch the attributes when you know their name, but there is nothing about this...
Yes, I know that is is a bit XY problem, but please guide me a bit.
Many thanks in advance.
To provide some code sample too, I am trying to fetch the user's uid by using the following code:
public String testFetch(String email) throws Exception
{
String returnAttr = "uid";
// here in the search expression what should I wrire instead of the 'mail'?
String vmmSearchExpr = String.format("#xsi:type='PersonAccount' and mail='%s'", email);
DataObject root = SDOHelper.createRootDataObject();
DataObject searchCtrl = SDOHelper.createControlDataObject(root, null, SchemaConstants.DO_SEARCH_CONTROL);
searchCtrl.setString(SchemaConstants.PROP_SEARCH_EXPRESSION, vmmSearchExpr);
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
List<String> props = searchCtrl.getList(SchemaConstants.PROP_PROPERTIES);
props.add(returnAttr);
Service service = new LocalServiceProvider(null);
DataObject searchRoot = service.search(root);
String result = "";
List<?> entities = searchRoot.getList(SchemaConstants.DO_ENTITIES);
if (entities.size() > 1) throw new RuntimeException("multiple users for an identity:" + vmmSearchExpr);
if (entities.size() > 0)
{
DataObject objdo = (DataObject) entities.get(0);
result = objdo.getString(returnAttr);
}else{
log("Got empty list There is no result.");
}
return result;
}
A possible solution is to add a new federal repository supported property (Name: mail, Property name: mail, Entity types: PersonAccount):
After a WAS restart I was able to use the search expression
#xsi:type='PersonAccount' and mail='<email address>'
and the code above to fetch the corresponding uid to the given email address.
It seems there is some info in the c:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\etc\wim\setup\wimdbproperties.xml, as if the "ibm-primaryEmail" would be the property that contains the email address, albeit I was not able to find my uid when I specified this instead of the "mail" attribute name.
Which of these is the correct / preferred way to create Datastore Entity:
// First, create a fake email for our fake user
final String email = "me#fake.com";
// Now, create a 'key' for that user using the email
final Key userKey =
datastore.newKeyFactory().kind("user").newKey(email);
// Now create a entity using that key adn add some fields to it
final Entity newUser =
Entity
.builder(userKey)
.set("name", "Faker")
.set("email", email)
.build();
or like it's done in DatastoreWordCount example ?
Entity from the first example is com.google.cloud.datastore.Entity.
Entity from the second example is com.google.datastore.v1.Entity.
I have code using com.google.cloud.datastore.Entity and I don't know how to store it Datastore as a part of Dataflow pipeline, since all code examples I found online suggest:
com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.io.datastore.DatastoreIO.v1().write()
but it's only working with com.google.datastore.v1.Entity.
I'm using com.google.cloud.dataflow:google-cloud-dataflow-java-sdk-all:1.7.0.
You have analyzed the situation well - Dataflow's DatastoreIO.v1() works with com.google.datastore.v1.Entity.
I'm working with the low-level datastore API. I've created an entity like this:
Entity entity = new Entity("Error");
entity.setProperty("description", "foo");
In the datastore viewer, I ses this:
Key Write Ops ID/Name description
----------------------------------------------
ahN0c... 4 259 foo
So the ID/Name field will be generated for me automatically since I'm not supplying anything in the Entity constructor. It generates an "ID" instead of a "Name", which is a number rather than an opaque string (like the "Key" value).
Is there a way to have the datastore generate a random "Name" instead of an "ID" for the Entity's "ID/Name" field?
I ask because if I share this ID with third parties, they could start to figure out roughly how many Error instances I have in my system. I'd rather give them an opaque string for the lookup ID, similar to what's in the auto-generated "Key" field. But I don't see a way to do this.
Thanks
For a similar task I used UUID to create a random string.
String uuid = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
You can use com.google.appengine.api.datastore.KeyFactory, combining the answer from #Devolus, it would look like
final Key key = KeyFactory.createKey("Error", UUID.randomUUID().toString());
final Entity e = new Entity(key);
You could even pass around the String representation of your Entitie's key via KeyFactory.keyToString(key) , may be after an encrypting depending on your security needs.
I have 4 tables involved in this query.
Campaign - many to one business
Business - one to many client
Client - one to one contact
Contact
In contact there is the field contact_name which is unique. I need to retrieve all campaigns related to contact(via client and business) which campaign field type equals 2.
What is the best way to do it with hibernate?
In SQL is will look like this:
select *
from campaign,contact, business, client
where campaign.type=2
and client.contact_id = contact.contact_id
and contact.name = 'Josh'
and client.business_id = business.business_id
and campaign.campaign_id = business.business_id
I think that the following should work.
from Compaign where Compaign.type=2 and compaign.business.client.contact.contact_name=:name
You can execute native SQL Queries too using createSQLQuery() method of Session.
You can also use Scalar Property to avoid the overhead of using ResultSetMetadata.
You can find more information on this from here
I'm new to Liferay development in general, so feel free to point out if I'm going about stuff totally the wrong way.
I'm trying to get a DynamicQuery object of all users within a certain group (I'll use this object to further filter another query I'll do against the message board). The User interface seems to have a roleIds property that I might be able to use, since I already know the roleId I'm interested in. But I can't find the proper way to query if roleIds contains a certain value.
Any ideas on what I want to do?
PS: I would have the exact SQL query I could ask directly, but I'd rather use Liferay's own connection pool, without needing to do some weird ext project thingy.
You don't need a DynamicQuery. These are the methods you are looking for in the classes that Dirk points out:
long[] UserServiceUtil.getRoleUserIds(long roleId)
or
long[] UserLocalServiceUtil.getRoleUserIds(long roleId)
List<User> UserLocalServiceUtil.getRoleUsers(long roleId)
Remember that the methods in the classes XXXLocalServiceUtil are not checking the permissions of the current user.
EDIT: If you are looking for all users with a given role within a given community:
long companyId= _X_; //Perhaps CompanyThreadLocal.getCompanyId() if you don't have it anywhere else?
Role role=RoleLocalServiceUtil.getRole(companyId, "Example Role");
Group group=GroupLocalServiceUtil.getGroup(companyId, "Example Community");
List<UserGroupRole> userGroupRoles = UserGroupRoleLocalServiceUtil.
getUserGroupRolesByGroupAndRole(groupId, role.getRoleId());
for(UserGroupRole userGroupRole:userGroupRoles){
User oneUser=userGroupRole.getUser();
}
The easiest way to access liferays own objects is by using the XXXServiceUtil classes (e.g. RoleServiceUtil.getUserRoles(userId)). Thus you rarely have to deal with any SQL directly. Either the RoleServiceUtil or UserServiceUtil might have what you need.
The roles of an Organizations are stored in the table UserGroupRole, so if you want to get the owner of an Organization you must use the following code:
boolean isOrgOwner =
UserGroupRoleLocalServiceUtil.hasUserGroupRole(
usr.getUserId(),
this.currentOrganization.getGroupId(),
RoleConstants.ORGANIZATION_OWNER);
If you want to retrieve all the Organization Owners of an organization:
List<User> administrators = new LinkedList<>();
List<UserGroupRole> allOrganizationAdministrators =
UserGroupRoleLocalServiceUtil.getUserGroupRolesByGroupAndRole(
this.currentOrganization.getGroupId(), roleId);
for (UserGroupRole userGroupRoleTemp : allOrganizationAdministrators) {
administrators.add(userGroupRoleTemp.getUser());
}
Cheers!
