0 | 0 | This program listen to Redis queue. If there is data in Redis, worker start to do their jobs. All these jobs have to run simultaneously that's why each worker listen to one particular Redis queue.
My question is : Is it common to run more than 20 workers to listen to Redis ?

There even are whole packages/frameworks devoted to such workflows, like for example Celery.
What is less common is trying to write the whole task queues system from scratch in a seemingly ad-hoc way instead of using a dedicated task queues system like Celery, ZeroMQ or something similar. | 0 | 834 | 1 | 0 | 2017-10-18T10:44:00.000 | python,redis,queue,worker | Is it common to run 20 python workers which uses Redis as Queue ? | 1 | 2 | 2 | 46,808,475 | 0 |
0 | 0 | I am writing a small chat app with python using bash commands. I'm using nc to accomplish this but I want to be able to append a username before the user's message. How do I go about doing this without breaking the connection?
The command I'm using to connect is just

0 | 0 | Im trying to make a tcp communication, where the server sends a message every x seconds through a socket, and should stop sending those messages on a certain condition where the client isnt sending any message for 5 seconds.
To be more detailed, the client also sends constant messages which are all ignored by the server on the same socket as above, and can stop sending them at any unknown time. The messages are, for simplicity, used as alive messages to inform the server that the communication is still relevant.
The problem is that if i want to send repeated messages from the server, i cannot allow it to "get busy" and start receiving messages instead, thus i cannot detect when a new messages arrives from the other side and act accordingly.
The problem is independent of the programming language, but to be more specific im using python, and cannot access the code of the client.
Is there any option of receiving and sending messages on a single socket simultaneously?
Thanks! | true | 46,833,561 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Option 1
Use two threads, one will write to the socket and the second will read from it.
This works since sockets are full-duplex (allow bi-directional simultaneous access).
Option 2
Use a single thread that manages all keep alives using select.epoll. This way one thread can handle multiple clients. Remember though, that if this isn't the only thread that uses the sockets, you might need to handle thread safety on your own | 0 | 53 | 0 | 1 | 2017-10-19T15:30:00.000 | python,tcp,send | Detecting when a tcp client is not active for more than 5 seconds | 1 | 1 | 2 | 46,833,696 | 0 |

Now, the question is, how?
The easiest way is to use already available packages called "web frameworks" which python has in abundance.
The easiest one to probably implement would mostly be Flask.
For a more robust application, you can use django as well. | 0 | 342 | 0 | 0 | 2017-10-24T18:36:00.000 | python,api,web-scraping | Web Scraping Api with Python | 1 | 1 | 1 | 46,917,799 | 0 |

0 | 0 | I'm trying to create a (very minimalist) web server with Python using the socket module.
I have a problem with, I think, web browser caching.
Explanation:
When I load a page, the first time work. It will work 2-3 other time at the beginning, then it will load just one time every two requests made by my browser (I use Firefox). I press F5, it works, I re-press F5, it loads nothing infinitely, I re-press F5 and it works.
I looked at my python console, and it seems that Firefox doesn't send any request when the loading of the page fails.
When I press Ctrl + F5, it ALWAYS work, Firefox send a request each time and my webserver send it the page.
I tried adding HTTP headers to prevent caching (Cache-Control, Pragma, Expires), but it still works one in two. I tested with Internet Explorer, and it works better, but it sometime fails (on 4-5 requests, it will fail only one time).
So, my question is:
Why Firefox and IE sometimes doesn't send request and still seems to wait for something? What is the web server supposed to do?
Thanks. | true | 46,949,681 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | This is not about caching. You don’t close the sockets after sending a response nor do you tell the browser that you don’t support multiple requests. So the browser will assume it can request again with the same connection.
Close the connection and if you claim to support HTTP 1.1 add an appropriate Connection header.
Also don’t bind/close the server socket after each request. There’s no need and it will just make things not work. Bind on startup, close on shutdown.
The code might also fail on data that is non-ASCII since you tell the length of the string and not the actual data you send. These may be different. | 0 | 70 | 0 | 0 | 2017-10-26T08:47:00.000 | python,http | Python/HTTP - How does web browsers cache work? | 1 | 1 | 1 | 46,949,933 | 0 |

From searching I found that Basic-Authentication doesn´t have option to logout. How to solve it in python script? | true | 47,044,392 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Basic auth doesn't have a concept of a logout but your router's page should have some implementation. If not, perhaps it has a timeout and you just leave it.
Since you're using the requests module it may be difficult to do an actual logout if there is no endpoint or parameter for it. I think the best one can do at that point is log in again but with invalid credentials. Studying the structure of the router's pages and the parameters that appear in the urls could give you more options.
If you want to go a different route and use something like a headless web browser you could actually click a logout button if it exists.

Check your internet connection speed, pause/stop/disable all of your downloading process.
Disable your firewall/antivirus/os_default_defender or any kind of security programs who scan your internet protocols and suspend your net IOs for a while.
Check your vpn/proxy or any kind of tunneler programs! ( because they can check and suspend your connections and make your internet connection slower ).
Check your default DNS ips, choose The fastest DNS server in the world like google = 8.8.8.8 or others ...
Clean your virtual ram buffer and check your os disk IO speed ( close your heavy programs such as converter programs ... )
Change your programming language !!! python is good but it is not fastest language for send/receive data from www. even you can try low level programming ( for your requests pyhton use your os internal services!!this bridge can make your connection slower, you will not have this bridge if you use your os friendly langs ( like .NET langs on windows ).
You can compress your data to make your request faster.
At last it depends on your target server response and your os!! linux has different net IOs handler from windows!!

However when I move (copy & delete method) programmatically these files through REST API, the folder remains, empty. I must therefore write additional logic to check for these and remove explicitly.

But if you upload the file using REST API and its full path i.e. bucket/folder/file, the folder is implicit visually but it's not getting created as such. So when removing the file, there is no folder left behind since it wasn't there in the first place.

0 | 0 | I've built a server listening on a specific port on my server using Python (asyncore and sockets) and I was curious to know if there was anything possible to do when there is too many people connecting at once on my server.
The code in itself cannot be changed, but will adding more process works? or is it from an hardware perspective and I should focus on adding a load balancer in front and balancing the requests on multiple servers?
This questions is borderline StackOverflow (code/python) and ServerFault (server management). I decided to go with SO because of the code, but if you think ServerFault is better, let me know. | true | 47,473,750 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 1.
asyncore relies on operating system for whole connection handling, therefore what you are asking is OS dependent. It has very little to do with Python. Using twisted instead of asyncore wouldn't solve your problem.
On Windows, for example, you can listen only for 5 connections coming in simultaneously.
So, first requirement is, run it on *nix platform.
The rest depends on how long your handlers are taking and on your bandwith.
2.
What you can do is combine asyncore and threading to speed-up waiting for next connection.
I.e. you can make Handlers that are running in separate threads. It will be a little messy but it is one of possible solutions.
When server accepts a connection, instead of creating new traditional handler (which would slow down checking for following connection - because asyncore waits until that handler does at least a little bit of its job), you create a handler that deals with read and write as non-blocking.
I.e. it starts a thread and does the job, then, when it has data ready, only then sends it upon following loop()'s check.
This way, you allow asyncore.loop() to check the server's socket more often.
3.
Or you can use two different socket_maps with two different asyncore.loop()s.
You use one map (dictionary), let say the default one - asyncore.socket_map to check the server, and use one asyncore.loop(), let say in main thread, only for server().
And you start the second asyncore.loop() in a thread using your custom dictionary for client handlers.
So, One loop is checking only server that accepts connections, and when it arrives, it creates a handler which goes in separate map for handlers, which is checked by another asyncore.loop() running in a thread.
This way, you do not mix the server connection checks and client handling. So, server is checked immediately after it accepts one connection. The other loop balances between clients.
If you are determined to go even faster, you can exploit the multiprocessor computers by having more maps for handlers.
For example, one per CPU and as many threads with asyncore.loop()s.
Note, sockets are IO operations using system calls and select() is one too, therefore GIL is released while asyncore.loop() is waiting for results. This means, that you will have total advantage of multithreading and each CPU will deal with its number of clients in literally parallel way.
What you would have to do is make the server distributing the load and starting threading loops upon connection arrivals.
Don't forget that asyncore.loop() ends when the map empties. So the loop() in a thread that manages clients must be started when new connection is accepted and restarted if at some time there are no more connections present.
4.
If you want to be able to run your server on multiple computers and use them as a cluster, then you install the process balancer in front.
I do not see the serious need for it if you wrote the asyncore server correctly and want to run it on single computer only. | 0 | 78 | 0 | 1 | 2017-11-24T12:53:00.000 | python,sockets,asyncore | How to handle a burst of connection to a port? | 1 | 1 | 1 | 47,474,778 | 0 |

x = x.split(',') (x is now ["1.0", "2.0", "3.0", "4.0", "5.0"], a list of strings)
Then, convert all of these strings into floats (as I assume you want that):

0 | 0 | I'm writing a Python program that uses Selenium to navigate to and enter information into search boxes on an advanced search page. This website uses Javascript, and the IDs and Names for each search box change slightly each time the website is loaded, but the Class Names remain consistent. Class names are frequently reused though, so my goal is to use find_elements_by_class_name(classname) and then index through that list.
One box, for example, has the class name x-form-text x-form-field x-form-num-field x-form-empty-field, but I can't use this because selenium considers it a compound class name and throws an error. If I use just a portion of it, such as x-form-text, it can't find the element. My hope is to either find a way to allow the spaces or, if that can't be done, find a way to search for all elements whose class name contains a section of text without spaces, such as x-form-text.
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I tried this code:
quantminclass = 'x-form-text.x-form-field.x-form-num-field.x-form-empty-field'
quantmin = '25'
browser.find_elements_by_css_selector(quantminclass)[0].send_keys(quantmin)

The answer is no, HTTP servers do not usually provide the ability to update files, and urllib does not support writing files over FTP / SCP. You will need to be either running some sort of an upload service on the server that exposes an API over HTTP (via a POST entry point or otherwise) that allows you to make requests to the server in a way that causes the file to be updated on the server's filesystem.

So upcoming event would be placed on SQS, and then other lambda would be used to do processing. Problem is that time of processing is limited to 5 min. Also delivering can't be parallel.
Other option is to have one input queue, and one output queue per receiver. So the lambda function, which process input, just spreads it through other queues. And then other lambdas are responsible for delivering. That way has other obvious problems.
Finally. Your lambda, while processing input, can generate messages on outgoing queue, instrumenting what message should be delivered to which users. Then you can have one lambda triggered on each message from outgoing queue. And there you can have small loop delivering messages. Note that in case of problems you need to send back what was not delivered.
Good point is that SQS has something like dead letter queue, so that problematic messages would not stay there forever. | 0 | 55 | 0 | 0 | 2017-12-15T17:22:00.000 | python,aws-lambda,webhooks | Design for implementing web hooks (including not blocking and ignoring superseding repeat events) | 1 | 1 | 1 | 47,854,491 | 0 |

0 | 0 | I am learning python and i am currently scraping reddit. Somehow reddit has figured out that I am a bot (which my software actually is) but how do they know that? And how we trick them into thinking that we are normal users.
I found practical solution for that, but I am asking for bit more in depth theoretical understanding. | true | 47,956,527 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 18 | There's a large array of techniques that internet service providers use to detect and combat bots and scrapers. At the core of all of them is to build heuristics and statistical models that can identify non-human-like behavior. Things such as:
Total number of requests from a certain IP per specific time frame, for example, anything more than 50 requests per second, or 500 per minute, or 5000 per day may seem suspicious or even malicious. Counting number of requests per IP per unit of time is a very common, and arguably effective, technique.
Regularity of incoming requests rate, for example, a sustained flow of 10 requests per second may seem like a robot programmed to make a request, wait a little, make the next request, and so on.
HTTP Headers. Browsers send predictable User-Agent headers with each request that helps the server identify their vendor, version, and other information. In combination with other headers, a server might be able to figure out that requests are coming from an unknown or otherwise exploitative source.
A stateful combination of authentication tokens, cookies, encryption keys, and other ephemeral pieces of information that require subsequent requests to be formed and submitted in a special manner. For example, the server may send down a certain key (via cookies, headers, in the response body, etc) and expect that your browser include or otherwise use that key for the subsequent request it makes to the server. If too many requests fail to satisfy that condition, it's a telltale sign they might be coming from a bot.
Mouse and keyboard tracking techniques: if the server knows that a certain API can only be called when the user clicks a certain button, they can write front-end code to ensure that the proper mouse-activity is detected (i.e. the user did actually click on the button) before the API request is made.
And many many more techniques. Imagine you are the person trying to detect and block bot activity. What approaches would you take to ensure that requests are coming from human users? How would you define human behavior as opposed to bot behavior, and what metrics can you use to discern the two?
There's a question of practicality as well: some approaches are more costly and difficult to implement. Then the question will be: to what extent (how reliably) would you need to detect and block bot activity? Are you combatting bots trying to hack into user accounts? Or do you simply need to prevent them (perhaps in a best-effort manner) from scraping some data from otherwise publicly visible web pages? What would you do in case of false-negative and false-positive detections? These questions inform the complexity and ingenuity of the approach you might take to identify and block bot activity. | 0 | 6,861 | 0 | 2 | 2017-12-23T22:28:00.000 | python,web-scraping,web,bots | How do websites detect bots? | 1 | 1 | 1 | 47,956,652 | 0 |

the client explicitely sets the proxy as its mail server (if only few servers are to be used with one name/address per actual server)
the proxy has a certificate for the real mail server that will be trusted by the client. A common way is to use a dummy CA: the proxy has a private certificate trusted by the client that can be used to sign certificates for any domains like antivirus softwares do.
Once this is set up, the proxy has just to pass all commands and responses, and process the received mails on the fly.

What that means is when the bot enters the server for the first time, it has predefined permissions and role set in place so the admin of the server doesn't need to set a role and permissions for the bot.
I have been trying to look up a reference implementation of this but no luck. If someone can point me at example of how to get a simple permission/role for a bot that will be great! | true | 47,999,716 | 1.2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | you want to do this through oath2 using the url parameters | 0 | 7,000 | 0 | 0 | 2017-12-27T23:15:00.000 | python,bots,discord | How to create a role for a Discord Bot | 1 | 1 | 3 | 48,163,714 | 0 |

Tornado's ping timeout defaults to 3 times the ping interval, so if you're getting cut off after 60 seconds instead of 180 seconds, something else is doing it. Some proxies have a 60-second timeout for idle connections, so if you're going through one of those you may need a shorter ping interval.
If that's not it, you'll need to provide more details, ideally a reproducible test setup with client and server code. | 0 | 720 | 1 | 1 | 2018-01-02T14:28:00.000 | python,websocket,tornado | how to response to the server ping in tornado websocket | 1 | 1 | 1 | 48,070,341 | 0 |
0 | 0 | In python, tcp connect returns success even though the connect request is in queue at server end. Is there any way to know at client whether accept happened or in queue at server? | false | 48,089,780 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | The problem is not related to Python but is caused by the underlying socket machinery that does its best to hide low level network events from the program. The best I can imagine would be to try a higher level protocol handshake (send a hello string and set a timeout for receiving the answer) but it would make no difference between the following problem:
connection is queued on peer and still not accepted
connection has been accepted, but for any other reason the server could not process it in allocated time
(only if timeout is very short) congestion on machines (including sender) and network added a delay greater that the timeout
My advice is simply that you do not even want to worry with such low level details. As problems can arise server side after the connection has been accepted, you will have to deal with possible higher level protocol errors, timeouts or connection loss. Just say that there is no difference between a timeout after connection has been accepted and a timeout to accept the connection. | 0 | 1,179 | 0 | 1 | 2018-01-04T06:25:00.000 | python,sockets,tcp,tcpclient | How to know the status of tcp connect in python? | 1 | 1 | 2 | 48,090,538 | 0 |

0 | 0 | Edited Question:
I guess I worded my previous question improperly, I actually want to get away from "unit tests" and create automated, modular system tests that build off of each other to test the application as whole. Many parts are dependent upon the previous pages and subsequent pages cannot be reached without first performing the necessary steps on the previous pages.
For example (and I am sorry I cannot give the actual code), I want to sign into an app, then insert some data, then show that the data was sent successfully. It is more involved than that, however, I would like to make the web driver portion, 'Module 1.x'. Then the sign in portion, 'Module 2.x'. The data portion, 'Module 3.x'. Finally, success portion, 'Module 4.x'. I was hoping to achieve this so that I could eventually say, "ok, for this test, I need it to be a bit more complicated so let's do, IE (ie. Module 1.4), sign in (ie. Module 2.1), add a name (ie Module 3.1), add an address (ie. Module 3.2), add a phone number (ie Module 3.3), then check for success (ie Module 4.1). So, I need all of these strung together. (This is extremely simplified and just an example of what I need to occur. Even in the case of the unit tests, I am unable to simply skip to a page to check that the elements are present without completing the required prerequisite information.) The issue that I am running into with the lengthy tests that I have created is that each one requires multiple edits when something is changed and then multiplied by the number of drivers, in this case Chrome, IE, Edge and Firefox (a factor of 4). Maybe my approach is totally wrong but this is new ground for me, so any advice is much appreciated. Thank you again for your help!
Previous Question:
I have found many answers for creating unit tests, however, I am unable to find any advice on how to make said tests sequential.
I really want to make modular tests that can be reused when the same action is being performed repeatedly. I have tried various ways to achieve this but I have been unsuccessful. Currently I have several lengthy tests that reuse much of the same code in each test, but I have to adjust each one individually with any new changes.
So, I really would like to have .py files that only contain a few lines of code for the specific task that I am trying to complete, while re-using the same browser instance that is already open and on the page where the previous portion of the test left off. Hoping to achieve this by 'calling' the smaller/modular test files.
Any help and/or examples are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance with this issue.
Respectfully,
Billiamaire | false | 48,309,776 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | You don't really want your tests to be sequential. That breaks one of the core rules of unit tests where they should be able to be run in any order.
You haven't posted any code so it's hard to know what to suggest but if you aren't using the page object model, I would suggest that you start. There are a lot of resources on the web for this but the basics are that you create a single class per page or widget. That class would hold all the code and locators that pertains to that page. This will help with the modular aspect of what you are seeking because in your script you just instantiate the page object and then consume the API. The details of interacting with the page, the logic, etc. all lives in the page object is exposed via the API it provides.
Changes/updates are easy. If the login page changes, you edit the page object for the login page and you're done. If the page objects are properly implemented and the changes to the page aren't severe, many times you won't need to change the scripts at all.
A simple example would be the login page. In the login class for that page, you would have a login() method that takes username and password. The login() method would handle entering the username and password into the appropriate fields and clicking the sign in button, etc. | 0 | 150 | 0 | 0 | 2018-01-17T20:50:00.000 | python,selenium,automated-tests,modular | Is it possible to make sequential tests in Python-Selenium tests? | 1 | 1 | 1 | 48,311,473 | 0 |

0 | 0 | So I've been making a small game in Python named Cows and Bulls. For those who don't know it's very simple. 1 player generates a number the other tries to guess. If the guess has a number on the correct position it gives you a cow. If it has a number but on the wrong position it gives you a bull, so until the cow value isn't 4 (4 digit number) the game keeps going. It keeps giving hints until the number is guessed.
I've actually sucessfully created the player part of the program. Now I moved on to creating an AI. I generate a number, and the PC tries to guess that number.
My problem is the conditions to help the PC find this number. Right now I have the basic ones. If the PC guess finds no bulls and no cows, it discards all those numbers for the next guesses, if it finds all bulls is tries every combination of with those 4 numbers and of course the normal winning conditions.
The PC takes a long time to guess it though. There aren't enough conditions that facilitate the process of guessing the number.
So I was wondering if anyone can give me some tips on what conditions I can put onto my program to facilitate him guessing the right number? I've been thinking about it but been struggling with it. Can't seem to find a good condition that actually helps considerably the time the PC takes to guess.
In any way thanks in advance! | true | 48,357,141 | 1.2 | 0 | 0 | 1 | I would use the process of elimination. Start off with a set of all 4 digit numbers from 1000 to 9999.
Then if you give the computer a cow, so the computer knows it is of the form _ _ 3 _. Remove all numbers that are not of that form from the set.
If you give the computer a bull, say for the number 4. Remove all 4 digit numbers that don't have a 4 in them somewhere.
For the computers next turn, just pick a random number from the set of numbers that it now knows are still potential values.
Also, if you don't get a bull or a cow from a number, you can remove all numbers that include the digits for the numbers you didn't get a bull or cow for.
Then repeat.
You'll whittle down the potential numbers pretty quickly. Then the computer will either guess the correct number or there will only be one left.

0 | 0 | I am creating a web application which scrapes data from some other websites based on what the user searches.
I am planning to host this application on hosting websites like Hostgator or Namecheap.
Currently, the application contains a total of 2 pages. One is index.html and another is tool.py.
index.html takes an input via form and post it to tool.py.
tool.py is responsible for web scraping. I have 2 questions regarding this:
1) Let's say 2 users come to my website and searched simultaneously. Which IP will go to these websites which are to be scraped? Is it users own IP will go or the script IP will go (where the tool.py is located in this case let's suppose Namecheap server ip).
2) If 100's of users search simultaneously, how will the tool.py script reacts? Is there a better way to prevent excessive load to the single script? Maybe distributing and picking scripts randomly (eg: tool1.py, tool2.py, tool3.py etc) | false | 48,364,941 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Ok to answer your questions in order.
As @GalAbra mentions above, it is dependent on the design of the tool. From the sounds of it though, if index.html forces the browser to post data to tool.py then the IP of where tool.py is located will be the one that requests the page.
The ideal way would be to have a queing system built into the tool. You could have the client add their request to the queue (possibly in a database) and then have the tool.py monitor the queue for new entries and have it then request. Possibly using threading where there are multiple new requests in the queue, depending on how much activity you think this tool will see.

Last solution that seems to work is I can also pip install my dependencies and zip them and pass them through the spark-submit job through --py-files. Though that may start becoming cumbersome as my requirements increase.
Any other suggestions or easy fixes I may be overlooking? | false | 48,433,297 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | bootstrap is the solution. write a shell script, pip install all your required packages and put it in the bootstrap option. It will be executed on all nodes when you create a cluster. just keep in mind that if the bootstrap takes too long time (1 hour or so?), it will fail. | 0 | 724 | 0 | 4 | 2018-01-24T23:21:00.000 | python,amazon-web-services,apache-spark,pyspark,emr | Module not found in AWS EMR slave nodes | 1 | 1 | 1 | 50,046,220 | 0 |
1 | 0 | I have a Flask application running on AWS Application Load Balancer, but can't get web sockets to work. After reading several posts and configuring Load Balancers, Target Groups, stickiness on EC2, I came to the conclusion that it might be that ALB is not staring the application correctly.
Flask-SocketIo says to use socketio.run(application, host='0.0.0.0', port=port) to start up the web server as it encapsulates application.run(). But after further reading I found that EC2 already calls application.run() without the need of explicitly doing so in the start up script, and therefore it might just bypassing my socketio.run() and not be starting my web server.
Could this be the case? How can I verify it and make sure socketio is started properly? | false | 48,459,764 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | To access the application via Load Balancer you have to make sure first that your target in Target Group is healthy. The health status is displayed in AWS Web console on your target group instance details on Targets tab.
If there are no targets in your Target Group, add one by pressing Edit button and selecting your EC2 instance from the list. Don't forget to use the appropriate port. Also make sure health checks are configured correctly (path, port...). You can find them on Health Checks tab of your target group details page.
If all above is ok and you have a healthy target in TG, but the ELB doesn't show your application, I'd recommend you to SSH to your EC2 instance with Flask app and check if that one is running correctly. | 0 | 648 | 0 | 1 | 2018-01-26T10:41:00.000 | python,amazon-ec2,websocket,amazon-elb | flask-socketio run on Application Load Balancer | 1 | 1 | 1 | 48,469,075 | 0 |
1 | 0 | I know this is sort of counter to the purpose of headless automation, but...
I've got an automation test running using Selenium and Chromedriver in headless mode. I'd prefer to keep it running headless, but occasionally, it runs into an error that really needs to be looked at and interacted with. Is it possible to render and interact with a headless session? Maybe by duplicating the headless browser in a non-headless one? I can connect through remote-debugging, but the Dev Tools doesn't seem to do allow me to view the rendered page or interact with anything.
I am able to take screenshots, which sort of helps. But I'm really looking for the ability to interact--there's some drag-and-drop elements that aren't working well with Selenium that are causing issues occasionally. | false | 48,467,961 | 0.132549 | 0 | 0 | 2 | What you are asking for is currently not possible. Further, such a "feature" would have nothing to do with Selenium, but the vendor of the browser. You can search their bug tracker to see if such a feature has already been requested.
The only currently available option is to run full GUI browser during debug / development of your tests. | 0 | 3,716 | 0 | 4 | 2018-01-26T19:06:00.000 | python,selenium,headless,browser-automation | Possible to open/display/render a headless Selenium session? | 1 | 1 | 3 | 48,468,760 | 0 |
0 | 0 | I am using Aws Lex for constructing chatbots. I had a scenario where I need to have welcome message initially without user input so that I can give a direction to the user in my chatbot. | false | 48,476,742 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | If you are using your own website or an app for integrating the chatbot, then you can send some unique welcome text from that website/app when it loads for the first time i.e on load method to the amazon lex. And in amazon lex you can create a welcome intent and put exact same text as utterance.
This way, when the website/app loads, it will send text to amazon lex and lex can fire the welcome intent and reply to it. | 0 | 4,953 | 0 | 2 | 2018-01-27T14:24:00.000 | python,amazon-web-services,amazon-lex | How to get welcome messages in AWS Lex (lambda in Python)? | 1 | 2 | 2 | 48,495,195 | 0 |

You can follow these steps:
You need to create an Intent called AutoWelcomeMessage.
Create a Slot type with only one value i.e: HelloMe.
Create an Utterances HelloMessage.
Create a Slot as follow: Required, name: answer, Slot Type: HelloMe, Prompt: 'AutoWelcomePrompt'.
Pick Amazon Lambda for your Fulfillment that will send a response to your user. I.e:
Hello user, may I help? (Here the user will enter another Intent and your Bot will respond).
Now, start a conversation with your User, just call via API your Lex Bot and send an intention with Intent AutoWelcomeMessage, that call starts a context with your Lex Bot and the fulfillment will execute your Lambda. | 0 | 4,953 | 0 | 2 | 2018-01-27T14:24:00.000 | python,amazon-web-services,amazon-lex | How to get welcome messages in AWS Lex (lambda in Python)? | 1 | 2 | 2 | 48,477,745 | 0 |
0 | 0 | TL;DR : Is passing auth data to a boto3 script in a csv file named as an argument (and not checked in) less secure than a plaintext shared credentials file (the default answer in docs) for any reason?
I want to write a boto3 script intended to run from my laptop that uses an IAM key. The main accepted way to initialize your session is to include the API key, the secret, the region, and (if applicable) your session key in a shared credentials file identified by AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE, or to have the key and secret be environment variables themselves (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, etc.) What I would like to do is load these values in a dictionary auth from a csv or similar file, and then use the keys and values of this dictionary to initialize my boto3.Session. This is easy to do; but, because a utility to load auth data from csv is so obvious and because so few modules provide this utility, I assume there is some security problem with it that I don't know.
Is there a reason the shared credentials file is safer than a csv file with the auth data passed as an argument to the boto3 script? I understand that running this from an EC2 instance with a role assignment is best, but I'm looking for a way to test libraries locally before adding them to one run through role security. | false | 48,477,832 | 0.379949 | 1 | 0 | 2 | There is nothing special or secure with a csv file. Its security risks are same as credentials file since both are text files. If you are worried about security and prefer a file option, one alternative I can think of:
Encrypt the credentials and store them as binary data in a file
In your Boto3 script, read the file, decrypt the data and supply the credentials to Boto3
You can use simple symmetric keys to encrypt the creds | 0 | 931 | 0 | 1 | 2018-01-27T16:23:00.000 | python,amazon-web-services,security,boto3 | AWS BOTO3 : Handling API keys | 1 | 1 | 1 | 48,478,740 | 0 |
