ruby - How to iterate through browsenodes returned via amazon-ecs gem item lookup call? -


i writing internal application monitor our amazon listed products , stuck amazon product advertising api (amazon-ecs) ruby gem. display on screen browse nodes similar this:

"root category" -> sub categories -> final category (the actual category item in)

    <browsenode> <browsenodeid>770071031</browsenodeid> <name>robotic vacuums</name> <ancestors>   <browsenode>   <browsenodeid>125698031</browsenodeid>   <name>vacuums</name>     <ancestors>     <browsenode>     <browsenodeid>3147711</browsenodeid>     <name>vacuums &amp; floor care</name>       <ancestors>         <browsenode>         <browsenodeid>3576359031</browsenodeid>         <name>vacuuming, cleaning &amp; ironing</name>           <ancestors>             <browsenode>             <browsenodeid>391784011</browsenodeid>             <name>kitchen &amp; home appliances</name>               <ancestors>               <browsenode>               <browsenodeid>3147411</browsenodeid>               <name>categories</name>               <iscategoryroot>1</iscategoryroot>                 <ancestors>                 <browsenode>                 <browsenodeid>11052681</browsenodeid>                 <name>kitchen &amp; home</name>                   <ancestors>                   <browsenode>                   <browsenodeid>11052591</browsenodeid>                   <name>home &amp; garden</name>                   <ancestors>                     <browsenode>                     <browsenodeid>3146281</browsenodeid>                     <name>home &amp; garden</name>                     </browsenode>                   </ancestors>                 </browsenode>                 </ancestors>                 </browsenode>               </ancestors>             </browsenode>             </ancestors>           </browsenode>           </ancestors>         </browsenode>       </ancestors>     </browsenode>   </ancestors>   </browsenode> </ancestors> </browsenode>

so above should displayed as:

home & garden -> kitchen & home -> kitchen & home appliances -> vacuuming, cleaning & ironing -> vacuums & floor care -> vacuums

i have tried get_array, , get_hash these return value of 1 long string.

is there way want using amazon-ecs gem or should process string xml , try loop though accordingly?

this simple way there. without criteria showing how determine <name> nodes acceptable returns them all:

require 'nokogiri'  xml = <<eot <browsenode> <browsenodeid>770071031</browsenodeid> <name>robotic vacuums</name> <ancestors>   <browsenode>   <browsenodeid>125698031</browsenodeid>   <name>vacuums</name>     <ancestors>     <browsenode>     <browsenodeid>3147711</browsenodeid>     <name>vacuums &amp; floor care</name>       <ancestors>         <browsenode>         <browsenodeid>3576359031</browsenodeid>         <name>vacuuming, cleaning &amp; ironing</name>           <ancestors>             <browsenode>             <browsenodeid>391784011</browsenodeid>             <name>kitchen &amp; home appliances</name>               <ancestors>               <browsenode>               <browsenodeid>3147411</browsenodeid>               <name>categories</name>               <iscategoryroot>1</iscategoryroot>                 <ancestors>                 <browsenode>                 <browsenodeid>11052681</browsenodeid>                 <name>kitchen &amp; home</name>                   <ancestors>                   <browsenode>                   <browsenodeid>11052591</browsenodeid>                   <name>home &amp; garden</name>                   <ancestors>                     <browsenode>                     <browsenodeid>3146281</browsenodeid>                     <name>home &amp; garden</name>                     </browsenode>                   </ancestors>                 </browsenode>                 </ancestors>                 </browsenode>               </ancestors>             </browsenode>             </ancestors>           </browsenode>           </ancestors>         </browsenode>       </ancestors>     </browsenode>   </ancestors>   </browsenode> </ancestors> </browsenode> eot doc = nokogiri::xml(xml)

here's code find nodes:

doc.search('name').map(&:text).reverse.uniq.join(' -> ') # => "home & garden -> kitchen & home -> categories -> kitchen & home appliances -> vacuuming, cleaning & ironing -> vacuums & floor care -> vacuums -> robotic vacuums"

some entries duplicated, uniq clean them out.

see "how avoid joining text nodes when scraping" also.

vb.net - Virtual Keyboard commands -

i wondering difference between virtual these keyboard commands is: keyeventf_extendedkey , keyeventf_keyup is. everywhere have looked gives me description based off integers , not want know each of them does. you've tagged question vb.net, these have nothing @ vb.net. they're constants defined in windows header files, use win32 api functions. as far difference, can't tell looking @ values. individual values not particularly important, that's why named identifiers used. what's important used , documentation functions tells mean. the first one, keyeventf_extendedkey , used keybdinput structure (which used along e.g. sendinput function) pass information synthesized keyboard input. if flag used, means scan code should interpreted extended key. technically, means scan code preceded prefix byte value 224 (&he0 in hexadecimal notation). the second one, keyeventf_keyup , 1 of flags available use structure. means key being released (going up)...
