How to get pins from pinterest with Jquery

If you are familiar with PHP you can just use these existing projects from github

1- Pinterest API - PHP

Read more

To use the Pinterest API you have to register yourself as a developer and create an application. After you've created your app you will receive a app_id and app_secret.


2- Pinterest Bot for PHP

This PHP library will help you to work with your Pinterest account without using any API account credentials.

To have an access to Pinterest API you need to go to developers.pinterest.com and register as a developer, then register your application, then wait for confirmation, and only then you will get an access token. With this library you are already ready to go. Just use only your account login and password, like you do it in your browser. But even your account is not required, if your don't use such operations as creating pins, writing comments or sending messages!

So, in this case I would not follow the PHP code because it would hard for the beginner. I gonna work with jQuery instead in just a few line of code but the result will produce the landslide victories.

1- Copy the somebody pinterest name or your. ex : https://www.pinterest.com/{nameofsomeone}/
2- Create the function to get the request pins from url
3- Extract the object.

  }
  
  protected function connected ($user) {
    // Do nothing: This is just an echo server, there's no need to track the user.
    // However, if we did care about the users, we would probably have a cookie to
    // parse at this step, would be looking them up in permanent storage, etc.
  }
  
  protected function closed ($user) {
    // Do nothing: This is where cleanup would go, in case the user had any sort of
    // open files or other objects associated with them.  This runs after the socket 
    // has been closed, so there is no need to clean up the socket itself here.
  }

Some Useful PHP Tricks You May Not Know

After I read many articles, I found some cool tricks in PHP that are very useful for our projects. Please have a look at 5 tricks below you may satisfy with them.

1. Array in Form Fields

Not only the form input fields that create array like

<input name="name['fullname']">

but you can create arrays with checkboxes also.

<label><input type="checkbox" name="hobbies[]" value="Sports" /> Sports</label><br />
<label><input type="checkbox" name="hobbies[]" value="Hiking" /> Hiking</label><br />
<label><input type="checkbox" name="hobbies[]" value="Swimming" /> Swimming</label><br />
<label><input type="checkbox" name="hobbies[]" value="Swimming" /> Watching Movies</label><br />

2. Count Character in a String

When you want to count the string you will think about strlen() function. However, we have a fastest way to count it. Take a look at the following code:

$string = 'testing';

if(isset($string[6]))
 echo "The string '$string' is at least 7 characters long.";
else
 echo "The string '$string' is less than 7 characters long.";

You treated $string like an array.

3. Use PHP Echo like a Boss

Most of the time we always thought that if we want to concatenate strings with echo, we need to use period. But we can use echo like a function that can replace period with commas instead. Please look at the fastest way to do so:

$string1 = 'test-string1';
$string2 = 'test-string2';
$string3 = 'test-string3';

echo 'String #1: ', $string1, '
';
echo 'String #2: ', $string2, '
';
echo 'String #3: ', $string3, '
';

You will find some more useful trick anywhere else, but these cool tricks is for you. Good luck!

Create component to validate IPN (Instant Payment Notification) with Cakephp

It's seem to be for senior programmer, but I just want to let somebody know the benefit or how to implement the IPN of PayPal using PHP or Cakephp, before you can understand what to do with IPN you have take a look this website.

If you don't know at all about Paypal please read the previous article : Paypal

class IpnComponent extends Component
{
   public function validate_ipn_data($data_ipn)
   {
     //Change these with your information
     //Sandbox for testing or empty ''
     $site = @$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
     $paypalmode = $site === 'your_site' ? '' : 'sandbox';

    if ($data_ipn) {
       if ($paypalmode=='sandbox') {
          $paypalmode     =   '.sandbox';
       }
       $req = 'cmd=' . urlencode('_notify-validate');
       foreach ($data_ipn as $key => $value) {
           $value = urlencode(stripslashes($value));
           $req .= "&$key=$value";
        }
    $ch = curl_init();
    $url_ = 'https://www'.$paypalmode.'.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';
    $host_ = 'Host: www'.$paypalmode.'.sandbox.paypal.com';
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url_);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $req);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array($host_));
    $res = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);

    if (strcmp ($res, "VERIFIED") == 0) {
         $item_number = $data_ipn['item_number'];
         $model      = ClassRegistry::init('Reservation');
                $model->id = $item_number;
                $model->save(array('is_paid' => 1));
    }
  }
 }  
}

1- Please create file in Component and pass the code above, then save.
2- You have to load the component in your controller
3- Create a function and call the  validate_ipn_data from IPN component
Note : Make sure that your URL pointed to Paypal.

Change default jQuery Validation

This jQuery plugin makes simple client side form validation easy, whilst still offering plenty of customization options. It makes a good choice if you’re building something new from scratch, but also when you’re trying to integrate something into an existing application with lots of existing markup. The plugin comes bundled with a useful set of validation methods, including URL and email validation, while providing an API to write your own methods. All bundled methods come with default error messages in English and translations into 37 other languages.

So, in this tutorial I will show you how to change the default standard messages of its plugin.

jQuery.extend(jQuery.validator.messages, {
    required: "This field is required.",
    remote: "Please fix this field.",
    email: "Please enter a valid email address.",
    url: "Please enter a valid URL.",
    date: "Please enter a valid date.",
    dateISO: "Please enter a valid date (ISO).",
    number: "Please enter a valid number.",
    digits: "Please enter only digits.",
    creditcard: "Please enter a valid credit card number.",
    equalTo: "Please enter the same value again.",
    accept: "Please enter a value with a valid extension.",
    maxlength: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter no more than {0} characters."),
    minlength: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter at least {0} characters."),
    rangelength: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter a value between {0} and {1} characters long."),
    range: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter a value between {0} and {1}."),
    max: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter a value less than or equal to {0}."),
    min: jQuery.validator.format("Please enter a value greater than or equal to {0}.")

Check OS and Browser Agent with PHP

The user agent string is a text that the browsers themselves send to the webserver to identify themselves, so that websites can send different content based on the browser or based on browser compatibility.

Mozilla is a browser rendering engine (the one at the core of Firefox) and the fact that Chrome and IE contain the string Mozilla/4 or /5 identifies them as being compatible with that rendering engine.

In this case I will show you how to detect the Os or Browser Agent using PHP ,

* Check OS

$agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
// get os
if (preg_match('/linux/i', $agent)) {
    $os = 'linux';
} elseif (preg_match('/macintosh|mac os x/i', $agent)) {
    $os = 'mac';
} elseif (preg_match('/windows|win32/i', $agent)) {
    $os = 'windows';
}

* Check Browser Agent

if (preg_match('/Chrome/i', $agent)) {
    if ($os == 'windows') {
        //impleted;
     } else {
        //impleted;
     }
} elseif (preg_match('/Firefox/i', $agent)) {
   if ($os == 'windows') {
      //impleted;
   } else {
     //impleted;
   }
} elseif (preg_match('/Safari/i', $agent)) {
   if ($os == 'windows') {
      //impleted;
   } else {
      //impleted;
   }
}

Different language message error from Model Cakephp

That is just a small trick how how we can make our website to be multiple language. For the concept is not different from other
framework, by the way you have understand about folder structure of Cakephp.

In this case you will see the Local folder which its contain the two folder inside.

I have created two folder of language "en and jp".

1- Create language folder. ex. ('en and jp')

2- Create file with extension ".po"
3- There are two key word in the file which you have to understand :
    msgid : it is the key or id which represent the message as a global
    msgstr: it is the message of the key a head
4- Use in model. ex.

public $validate = array(
        'username' => array(
            'required' => array(
                'rule' => array('notBlank'),
                'message' => 'This field is required!'
            )
        ),
        'password' => array(
            'required' => array(
                'rule' => array('notBlank'),
                'message' => 'This field is required!',
            ),
            'min_length' => array(
                'rule' => array('minLength', '5'),
                'message' => 'Password must over 5',
            )
        ),
);

5- check in the file .po syntax
    a- Example in en folder :

msgid "This field is required!"
msgstr "This field is required!"

msgid "Please enter the same value again!"
msgstr "Please enter the same value again!"

msgid "Password must over 5!"
msgstr "Password must over 5!"

msgid "Email already exist!"
msgstr "Email already exist!"

msgid "Please enter valid phone number!"
msgstr "Please enter valid phone number!"

msgid "This field must be number!"
msgstr "This field must be number!"

msgid "Invalid email format!"
msgstr "Invalid email format!"

   b- Example in jp folder :

msgid "This field is required!"
msgstr "必須項目です。"

msgid "Please enter the same value again!"
msgstr "必須項目です。"

msgid "Password must over 5!"
msgstr "パスワードは5文字以上を入力ください。"

msgid "Email already exist!"
msgstr "入力されたEメールは既に存在しています。"

msgid "Please enter valid phone number!"
msgstr "電話の形式ではありません。"

msgid "This field must be number!"
msgstr "数値ではありません。"

msgid "Invalid email format!"
msgstr "Eメールの形式ではありません。"

6- Please configure the language in AppController :

Configure::write('Config.language', 'jp or en');

Ok, that is. Let's enjoy.

Go to position with jQuery

This is just a small trick on how to go to the page section with Jquery by referenced from url. So the concept is not difficult first you need to do is to add the # which will be connected with your link (eg. www.url.com/page#id). After that you can use Jquery window.location.hash to get the "#id" from url. In this code I have used animate function to show the transition while the page is scrolled to the section.

ID

Text Description

$(function() {
        var ha = window.location.hash;
        if(ha) {
            var divLoc = $(ha).offset();
            $('html, body').animate({scrollTop: divLoc.top}, "slow");
        }
    })
 }
}
