MySQL Client on

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

I am using revOpenDatabase with the "MySQL" parameter on LiveCode server.

I am getting an error:

*Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client*

What can I do?? I am in a real hole as the version of mySQL was updated to
the latest version 8.0 and now LiveCode server is NOT working???


Please advise,

Todd Fabacher

PS I never got LC server to open a Postgres Database. I need some help here.

Re: use-livecode Digest, Vol 203, Issue 17

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Thanks  Matthias Rebbe for the reply

Did you already try to remove the https://  from tDatabaseAddress?
I am not used with Postgres, but this https would definitely not work when
connecting to MySQL.

When I took it out the https:, I got this error:

*could not connect to server: No such file or directory*

* Is the server running locally and accepting*

* connections on Unix domain socket
"//xxe-0.a.db.ondigitalocean.com/.s.PGSQL.25060
"?*


MY error is the port number...there should be no issue with the port
nu,ber. it works everywhere except LiveCode.

invalid port number: "//-0.a.db.ondigitalocean.com:25060"

Postgres Connection Issue

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

ocal tDatabaseAddress = "https://x-0.a.db.ondigitalocean.com::25060;

put revOpenDatabase("postgresql", tDatabaseAddress, "admin", tDatabaseUser,
tDatabasePassword, "sslmode=require") into tConnectionID

Error Message
invalid port number: "//x-0.a.db.ondigitalocean.com::25060"

What am I doing wrong? I know the port number is correct as I am connecting
with NodeJS and two PGAdmin IDEs. I know the default port is 5432 for
Postgres, but for security reasons, we changed it.

I would appreciate any help.

LiveCode Server

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello all,

We are running LC Server Scripts to process some DB request and we
want to do basic validation by passing a token from the App to the
server script.

The problem is I can not find where I can get the headers on the
server. I looked in $_SERVER, but not there. I see the CONTENT_TYPE
and HTTP ACCEPTS which I set in my header, but I can's find anything
else from the header that was posted.

Does anyone know how to read an "Authorization: Bearer" header in
LiveCode Script on the server?? Thanks for the help.

Re: use-livecode Digest, Vol 183, Issue 35

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Thanks for the email Tom. Unfortunately NOT. We got the WebSocket working
in the browser with Javascript, but the app dies after 20 mins  in iOS [<10
mins on Android] of play because it is calling a LiveCode function from
Javascript. Or workaround was to create an Angular site [
https://play.triviamatic.com/] and just have the users play in a web
browser, but this is NOT a solution. we have also loaded the browser in our
app for now, BUT I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THE WORKAROUND.

So unfortunately since we can't find a workaround and nobody from LC
responded, we have to assume it is not possible. So we have started to
switch to Flutter and have to postpone our launch by four weeks. I told my
team that if the users can't play the game effectively, then what is the
use of having an app, so they suggested switching.

BTW...Check out the website and let me know what you think:
https://triviamatic.com Because it reads from the games from the database,
we ended up coding everything in HTML and EJS on a Node server. We are in
the process of making our own trivia store:
https://triviamatic.com/trivia-games.

Websockets Problem on LiveCode

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

This is a 911 call for HELP from anyone.

We are using a Socket IO server. We tried using the web browser to
send websockets messages...no problems.

but when we listen and receive the websocket message, that is where the
problem is created. If we don't call LiveCode from the web browser, we
don't have any issues.

But as soon as the browser calls a LiveCode function from Javascript the
app is crashing in both iOS and Android. Sometime after 10 mins, sometimes
after 20 mins - but it never makes it over an hour.

I assume that it is a memory leaking error. Has anyone had this problem of
calling LiveCode function from a JavaScript function in the browser?? This
is a HUGE problem for us as the app cannot be shipped.

Charles, you said you had a solution, but we could not get it to work.
Maybe we were doing something wrong and you could point us in the right
direction.

Thanks for any help,

Todd

Re: LiveCode and Websockets

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Thanks Charles for the reply. Hope all is going well with you. Where can I
test the WebSocket external? I will need it for iOS, Android, Mac, and
Windows. Can you email me directly as we are time sensitive on this please.

We have the server up and running. Socket.io is the BEST in the market and
can deal with 10,000+ simultaneous connections with Node.js as the server.

Also, thanks, Tom. I looked at this and what it does is create a bridge
between LC and a web browser JavaScript that you add to the form. This is a
GREAT workaround if we can find our own controller. I see they need some
more Javascript code to manage all the different callback and error
trapping functionality, but it is a workable solution we also had
considered. It is NOT as flexible as an external, but we will improve it to
make it work to keep it as a backup.

Thanks guys,

Todd Fabacher

LiveCode and Websockets

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

We have hot a wall because we have an API that is ONLY accessible via a
call to Socket.io server using Websockets.

Richard Gaskin, I remember you were looking into this last year, any
success from your research.

It seems the best way would be to open a web browser and code the
communications using Javascript, which would then all a LiveCode function
on the callback.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

Much Thanks,

Re: use password protected scripts on LC web server

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

I got the LC Indy web server installed and it can connect to the DB and
return JSON.

But as soon as I reference a password protected script file, it gave me an
error.



This is the error I am getting:

REVO7000

file "/var/www/html/model.lc"
file "/var/www/html/xps_sync_delete.lc"
file "/var/www/html/xps_sync.livecode"
  row 7, col 6: Function: error in function handler (DoesItWork)
  row 7, col 6: put: error in expression


Here is the simple password protected function:

function DoesItWork

   return "It Works"

end DoesItWork

Using stackoverflow.com

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Just curious...Why are these questions NOT being put on stackoverflow.com?
This is now people, companies, and publications rank languages these days.

I think I have seen a post on people asking before, but it seems
self-defeating to keep these post in the format. The new kids on the block
and the old times do not benefit because they are not indexed by Google
properly.

Also, we have two clients who select NOT to have us use LiveCode this
month. Something needs to change here. I am a strong believer that the
community needs to step forward and do something. The two reasons they want
a different environment were:

1. Not sufficient 3rd party tools with a viable marketplace [also little on
Git]. If we have all these old LC scripts and they are open source, why
don't we just put them on git???

and

2. small community on StackOverflow.


And please someone work on the www.slant.co. Here it is if you are
unaware:  https://medium.com/building-slant/what-is-slant-5a836b200c0
People really read this stuff and I can't get clients to use livecode. It's
a real problem that needs to be addressed. I try not to complain and I
think the community needs to step forward.

https://www.slant.co/versus/119/124/~livecode_vs_scratch
https://www.slant.co/versus/119/125/~livecode_vs_php
https://www.slant.co/versus/119/126/~livecode_vs_golang
https://www.slant.co/versus/119/381/~livecode_vs_haxe


We all suffer as a community when we can not get companies who would commit
resources and new young blood. Don't just want to complain. I am happy to
put some resources into widgets. We have been working on a few.

Re: WooCommerce API Manager & Livecode

Hello Peter,

Yes, Digital Pomegranate created an interfaced with WooCommerce several
times via the WP RestAPI.

Here is the documentation:
https://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-rest-api-docs/

You can get the LiveCode-WP RestAPI script here:
https://github.com/digitalpomegranate/livecode-wp-restapi

Just be aware you are going to need a WP OAuth plugin to connect. Before
Woo had their own API, but they now fully support the standard API.

Email if you have any questions. I am traveling this week, so give me a day
or two to respond.

WordPress REST API's

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

> kinda passed that on.


Yes, sorry I was a speaking at a conference. Hi Steve, I am happy to help.
There are several ways to connect to the WP REST API. UN/PW is one and
OAuth is another. You will need to add a plugin to WP to use the OAuth. I
will ask the team and get that for you.


>From version 4.7, the REST API ver2.0 is supported inside WP. You will need
to activate and allow it. I suggest checking the documentation first:
https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/

What you can also do is use postman to validate that everything is working
and your server is good to go. This way you can know if it is a server
issue or the connection issue from LC.

Our code supports ver 2.0 so it should not be an issue, and we have sites
that use it. Honestly, we switched to (Node.JS + Anguar) for most web
development, so we will not be using WP going forward, but we are happy to
help. You can email me directly tfabac...@gmail.com and I will try to help
you.

Digital Pomegranate

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

There are few moments in life that are more important than business and
coding, this is one of them. All of Digital Pomegranate is our on the
street rejecting the former president who had grabbed power after his term
limits and has become a dictator in the former Soviet country. As you would
expect, lots of arrests and the hospitals are full. Let's just hope they
don't start shooting as have threatened to do.

This has been going on for 10 days now and will continue. It is now
starting to hit the nightly news cycle, so you will see it in the next few
days. The internet has been on and off and now the entire company is on the
streets asking for a free election and better government, so we will not be
providing support for our new widgets for a few days.

Thanks Matthias for the reply

We figured it out. When you do a Post to LiveCode Server, you MUST call $_POST
or $_POST_RAW. If you do NOT then the server script will NOT process and
returns an error. We just put the file up there is see if we could get a
return. But when posting...you MUST make one of the two calls.

Thanks also to Elanor for the help,

If I put the URL in a browser I get back, "It works"

https://api01.triviamatic.tv/round_create.lc



*put* "Accept: text/plain" & CR after tHeaders
*put* "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" & CR after tHeaders
*set* the httpHeaders to tHeaders
*put*"fullname=chi=male=black" into tArgList
*post* tArgList to URL "https://api01.triviamatic.tv/round_create.lc

"
*put* the result into tError
*put* it into tFormResults


The tError is:  tsneterr: (52) Empty reply from server

and tFormResults is null


I need some help ASAP. This is SUPER frustrating!!

Intel CPU for Android Devices

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

I am running into a problem where the Android device uses Intel CPU and NOT
Arm. It does not rum from the store on the device. Has anyone installed and
run a LiveCode Android App on an Intel device.

I have an 11am meeting on Monday, so any answer on the holiday weekend
would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Todd

TSNet updated to include PUT and PATCH

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello Charles and LC community,

As we start to use more JSON databases and REST APIs, we are going to need
to get HTTPS PATCH. This is a commonly used function used by many REST
services.

We are currently doing Google Firebase for LiveCode and they make extensive
use of PATCH. We can get by with just POST, but we would prefer if we could
get PUT and PATCH on mobile.

Is there any plan at all on the roadmap??

--Honestly, our main focus will be mobile at first, but our goal is all
platforms. As you can see in the list, many are mobile issues that
LiveCode currently has no access to.We will try but all platforms may come
after we have completed the mobile and worked out the bugs for LCB.

--Yes, Ali has provided a good multiplatform example of a button. We are
taking this example and creating a structure/template for all basic UI

them in a widget store for people to purchase and use. But before 2021
should not be an issue. We need to get the LC platform access to Native
functionality to the coders because the competition is doing this. We need
it to get new members and keep existing community members.

BTW HH, thanks for the LBC property sample app you did, it was helpful.

LiveCode Widget Factory

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello LiveCoders,

I hope all is going well. As Kevin announced before...Gurgen, myself, the
DP team and the FANTASTIC  LiveCode team [providing wonderful support] are
working on creating LCB widgets that will catapult the LC platform and
improve productivity.

I have been in touch with a few people to get their ideas and needs, but I
wanted to reach out and check with the community. At first, we have decided
to focus these for round one:

Basic Native UI elements
Native Maps
Voice to Text
Bluetooth Device Connection
Beacons
Security/Fingerprint
Playing sound/music in the background when the phone sleeps like Spotify or
iTunes.

For Phase Two we are looking at...
BarCode Scanner & Maker
Charts
iCal like Calendar [Day, Week, Month, Year]
Clipboard for mobile

We are mostly looking at creating many UI elements and functionality that
is native and not accessible now and other widgets that will save days of
coding by grouping functionality into one simple widget [with the difficult
code encapsulated].

A few of the controls will be open sourced but the vast majority will be
for sale at a reasonable price. Sorry, Gurgen and Team don't work for free
and my landlord does not have an open source building, so please save the
digital trees with replies of why we should be open source.

We are excited and will be working VERY hard. Good News, DP was VERY
successful at the Seaside Summit in UEA. We also have two LiveCode based
startups selected to be profiled at Collision Conference
https://collisionconf.com in April. One App is coded for Android, iOS,
Windows, MacOS, LINUX local Server & TV HDMI output and a big LiveCode
Server implementation for the cloud. It uses TCP, UDP, HTTPS, and SFTP
protocols. Extensive encryption and a distributed network that will have
200,000 simultaneous global users. WOW...all of this with one code base -
that is the power of LiveCode.

Android Install with LiveCode

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello All,

Currently, Google supports 50MB in the App install. There is a way to
reference another 200MB is a separate file in native Java Apps. Is that
possible in LiveCode??

Now iOS support 100MB+ with LiveCode, but Android still seems to be limited
to 50MB.

Please help,

Re: RESTful PUT error

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

What are you setting your headers to??  Are you sending JSON or posting a
form??

This is to send a form and get back JSON. You may also want XML or TEXT

FYI, most RestAPI use POST.


*--Build the REST API Header*

*set* the httpHeaders to empty

*put* "Accept: application/json" & CR after tHeaders

*put* "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"  & CR after tHeaders

*set* the httpHeaders to tHeaders


People forget to set this in LiveCode, It makes a big difference.

Re: Beacons and Bluetooth

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello Lagi,

I replied to the forum post. We tried but not much luck. With the new LCB,
we could talk about something for now. Beacons are a bit different than
most Bluetooth devices. They will require wrapping and SDK.

I am open to figuring out how we can get this done as an LC Widget Lib and
get it out to other developers.

We are wrapping the Android Finger Print Touch ID as a test. Let's see how
it goes.

Native Fingerprint check for Android

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello All,

We are trying to create an LCB lib to check the fingerprints using the
native API calls. But we are getting permission problems. Here is the forum
post:

https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=93=29800

The fingerprint API is level 23 of the Android SDK from version 6.0. We
need to confirm that the LCB is supporting calls from this version. Also,
what do we need to do to make sure that we can set *metadata
android.permissions is "USE_FINGERPRINT"*?? The error is android saying
there is no permission required. And also the app crashes when I'm calling
isHardwareDetected() method.

Your help is MUCH appreciated.  Please let us know.

Re: use-livecode Digest, Vol 168, Issue 5

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Thanks...Andy, Alex & Mark!!

I think we can find a solution. *Richard*, this sounds like the perfect
open source community project. What do you think?? We can host the stuff on
GitHub, but create an interface within the IDE with an online DB that can
be queried. we could slap a simple RestAPI on it and people could query it
to get helpful code snippets and usage examples and complete App examples.

Digital Pomegranate could host the DB, or better would be LC. They have to
just drop a MariaDB or Postgre SQL [sice mySQL is not an open source
favorite anymore] and we can create a simple API to post or pull from it.


What do you think??? That is another thing off the core coder's plate so
they can focus. We coul deven to the RestAPI in LC script as an example of
how to setup an API using LC on the server??? - Nice!!

Good News!!!  The team of Digital Pomegranate did a project with onesignal push
notification last year. We are actually in the progress of upgrading the
lib now. So if someone is interested in it, please contact me and I will
make arrangements to get you a version.

Also as an added side note. We are upgrading our WordPress Rest API to

changes.

We are looking to put all of the work we do in LiveCode on the internet.
Most will be open source [as much as we can because some we have NDAs on
and we can release code] and we are thinking that we can put in a section
on our website.  But LiveCode could use the LiveCode.org to create a
section that lists open source projects and where to download the code.

There needs to be a better way for all of us to share projects and
code snippets.
Any suggestions We can build and host something if there is a good
idea. For all of our benefits, we should grow the community by 10,000. They
will take efforts from EVERYONE.

Using Touch ID with Keychain and LocalAuthentication

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello Mark or Monte or any knowledgeable soul,


We are working with the United Nations to create their first LMS mobile
App. The problem is they are security freaks. It took their hackers about 4
hours to send me screen shots of the encryption key I scripted in LiveCode
and compiled for iOS. Normally we don't put code like this in our apps, but
they are insisting to use the LocalAuthentication with the TouchID to
unlock the App.

LocalAuthentication, does not actually store any values, it just validates
that the fingerprint matches. The MergeExt mergLA
http://mergext.com/home/mergla/ does the trick - well done.

The problem is how do I store a unique key to retrieve the UN/PW on the
server or even just store the values on the local device? I can use
encryption, they can read the key from code and have said it is NOT an
option. So, my good friends at the UN have suggested that I use the iOS
Keychain functionality.

They have provided a sample of what Apple is doing and suggest that
LiveCode be able to do the same. Is there any way to utilize the Keychain
functionality on the device?

WDC session video and presentation: You will need Safri to watch the video:
https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2014/711/

Here is their Code:
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/samplecode/KeychainTouchID/Introduction/Intro.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014530-Intro-DontLinkElementID_2

So my goal is to store a token or UN/PW in the iOS Keychain to pull it out
using LocalAuthentication. I think many of LC app developers must be facing
the same problem.

IntelliSense - Intelligent code completion for LiveCode

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

One of the single largest problems we face is resistance to LiveCode in the
corporate is developers. One, they are not eager to learn a new language.
But once I show them LiveCode, they see the simple ease and simplicity and
become open to the prospect. I even explain it as a way of prototyping
their logic in an English format.

But once they start coding, they outright reject it because of the complete
lack of IntelliSense. These people will NOT BUDGE. There is no way we are
going to convince them that they will have to remember the properties and
function names.

I saw in Kevin's demo of the latest version which showed that there was
FINALLY a list of events to choose from. This should have been there years
ago. You just need to look at LiveCode's competition to see progress. Xojo
is one example. We needed to create a RasPi app as a test, so we purchased
a license, and it's IDE was quite good. MUCH better than LiveCode. We also
use Visual Studio, which has fantastic IntelliSense.

Here is what they are looking for:

1. Function completion. As you type it starts to match a function name, all
the functions so up in a list to choose from as I type.

2. Function parameters. once I type a function, I can mouse over it and all
the parameters and a quick explanation show up.

3. I understand that properties are going to be a problem because LiveCode
is NOT in an algebraic format like Object.Property = value. So setting the
properties first is an issue. How about we put in a placeholder like:

set the ? from field "test"
set the ? from widget "map"

Then...as soon as I put in the object type or object name for a widget, I
would get a pop-up with a list of properties to select from.


These functionalities may not be easy, but should not be difficult. Maybe
an IntelliSense extension, done by the community can be done? It is a major
barrier to entry for experienced developers to switch to. This is the #1
reason we can not get coders in companies to agree to LiveCode. #2 was Git,
but that seems to be solved with community involvement from Trevor.

Just an idea,

Todd Fabacher

I need a "slider" in a circle

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello Livecode group,

I have a situation where we need a slider, not a straight line, but as a
circle. I thing Scott Rossi did a demo of this at San Diego LC conference,
but I can't find the code samples to check. I just need to restrict the
movement to a circle when the user moves their finger. Maybe there is some
kind of dial example somewhere???

All I am looking to do is move the slider in the semi-circle to move the
value forward or backwards.

Thanks,

Re: D3 LiveCode Chart Examples

[Todd Fabacher via use-livecode]

Hello LiveCoders,

This was our prototype for charting, but unfortunately we have become so
consumed with projects that we can not focus on this right now. We also
coded the D3.js scripts so that we could use it in React.

Just an FYI, some of the projects we have been working on in
LiveCode...Royalty Payment system for the largest music company in the
world, a live video medial app that connects patient and doctor for the
largest network in the world [with live bluetooth stats fed from medical
devices], interactive & live video kiosk for 5000 retail outlets for the
largest PC manufacturer. Plus connecting with WP to create a great solution
in the Business LMS and Tourism Industries. The LMS and tourism app are
mainly WordPress, but we are using our WP API in LiveCode to create
incredible mobile solutions.

We are also launching our our product this week: TriviaMatic  [
www.TriviaMatic.com we are still working on the web site sorry] We were
selected to be in the NEW and HOTEST product section in the Nightclub and
Bar show. There are 36,000 people attending and this will be our first
large App we did in LiveCode that should have over 500,000 users.

The bars pay a monthly fee of $199 + $499 setup fee  [or the suppliers pay
so the can show Ads to promote their product], and the trivia also appears
on a  TV [controlled by Rasberry Pi - $499 is nice markup on the device].
We also did a full interactive digital restaurant menu in the App and on
the TV. Our goal is 1000 bars in the first 2 years - you do the math :-) !!
Our next market after the US/Canada is Brazil...then on to Europe.

The big kicker for the LiveCode community is our online/offline datasync.
Your apps will be able to keep 5000+ users all in sync with just 3 lines of
LiveCode in your App, which we hope will be tested and finished this
quarter. We are doing the server in Google's GoLang and can be dropped on a
LC server with no server experience at all. This is already in the market
and use in CAT manufacturing plants and our in the field where they are
used. Thanks Monte for the barcode scanning external - it was a life saver
last month!!

We will also be releasing a D3 interactive World Map in your App. This is
for the music company...and they LOVE our solution. We just need to test
and debug before putting it out and get their OK. Credit goes to Gurgen and
the LiveCode team @ DP - they are becoming very creative in pushing the
boundaries and getting exceptional UI/UX our of LC on mobile.

Hello Richard...Here is the D3.js copyright, so I assume I will go with
what they do:
https://github.com/d3/d3/blob/master/LICENSE

Hi Mark..Gurgen, who you met at the LiveCode conference did the D3 code. I
actually have not been involved much, so he should get the credit for his
hard work.

Sure Trevor. Thank you for being the inspiration for us to move almost 100%
to script ONLY code. We will use .livecodescript. We do even use pre
built UI card anymore. Everything is all dynamically built now. We have not
moved to widgets just yet, but we hope soon.
