HTML Service - PWA


HTML Service - PWA



Sorry for a noob question - as I've just started with web development half a year ago..



I need your help regarding setting my GAS app into a PWA. Is there such a possibility? I struggle to find any really helpful resources on how to create a service workers and manifest files to work correctly. It'd be extremely helpful for me to get trained on the topic.



Thanks.





Google Apps Script is not persistent server-side.

@tehhowch could you specify? I'm quite new to the topic and if you could at least provide some docs or tuts It would help me very much. Is there any possibility to overcome limitations to change GAS web app to the PWA? Thanks!

This is not a "find me tutorials" website. I'm merely commenting that there is no persistence of memory between calls to apps script - each hit to a webapp will spool a new instance.

@tehhowch Got it! I've noticed there is no memory in GAS. My idea would be to capture the main index.html file and save it as offline-mode version. If that's not possible, a non-offline version of the app would be okay - just simply to make it load in a separate instance (not in browser window) and add an icon to Android homescreen (not a shortcut to website).

Having a valid manifest.json will enable your application to add to home screen of Android, iOS - Safari only, Chrome - All desktop OS.



You can use this link to generate manifest.json for your application and keep in the root of your project and link it using index.html like below,





You can use Workbox to generate service worker for your application.

Opening a url is failing in Swift breakpointing inside the callback and logging success shows false. I added itms-apps to my plist: LSApplicationQueriesSchemes and put this in my app delegate: func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool { return true } func moreTapped() { let url = NSURL(string: "itms-apps://itunes.com/developer/quantum-productions/id979315877") if #available(iOS 10.0, *) { UIApplication.shared.open(url! as URL, options: [:], completionHandler: {(success: Bool) in }) } else { UIApplication.shared.openURL(url! as URL) } } Are you testing on a real device? – rmaddy Jun 21 at 23:57 I try on a device, get "Cannot Connect to App Store".

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it. The problem is that now I am using dbeaver for mac and this guide is not working. I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select. As a result it does't select my result or anything (besides being "successful"). Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
