gui construction - Cloud CDF and HTTPRedirect


Cross posted on community.wolfram.com


Question and requirements


Is it possible to HTTPRedirect from a Cloud CDF via e.g. Button action?




  • I need an interactive cloud cdf around it.




  • The action would not only redirect but evaluate arbitrary code prior to that.





  • If it matters the target page does not need to be any page but an arbitrary CloudObject is enough.




  • No, I don't want to hide old stuff and show new to the user, I really need to redirect.




  • No, open in new tab does not count.





So it would work analogously to this form's submit button:


CloudDeploy[
    FormFunction[{"go on and submit"}
      , Module[{link}
          , link = CloudPut[RandomReal[], Permissions -> "Public"]
          ; HTTPRedirect[link]
        ] &
    ]
  , Permissions -> "Public"

]

Problems


Wasn't able to achieve that, here's why:




  • Form/ApiFunctions where HTTPRedirect works well can't have interative CDFs embedded inside:


     CloudDeploy[
         FormFunction[
             { "this is ok"

             , ExportForm["this is not ok", "CloudCDFElement"]
             }
           , foo
         ]
       , Permissions -> "Public"
     ]


    enter image description here






  • and I can't trigger HTTPRedirect from cloud CDF, nothing happens:


        CloudDeploy[
          ExportForm[
            Button["Submit", Print[1]; HTTPRedirect["http://www.wolfram.com"]], 
            "CloudCDFElement"
          ], Permissions -> "Public"
         ]

Answer



Here are results of my experiments, so far works:


CloudDeploy[
    ExportForm[
        DynamicModule[{x = 1}, Column[{

            Slider@Dynamic@x,
            Dynamic@x,
            Button["Test redirect",
                Module[{link},
                    link = "https://mathematica.stackexchange.com";
                    Print @ EmbeddedHTML[ StringTemplate[
                       ""
                    ]@link
                ]
            ]

        ]}]]
      , "CloudCDF"]
    , Permissions -> "Public"
  ]

.top. was added because EmbeddedHTML translates to an iframe and we don't want to redirect only that iframe itself. On the other hand your cloud object may be embedded in another page and .top. will redirect the whole page. You may need that or not, depends, at the end I'm using .parent. because I want to redirect only the CloudObject parent iFrame.

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

equation solving - Invert and fit implicitly defined curve

I need to fit an implicitly defined curve. I thought I could get some data out of Solve , and then using FindFit . Therefore, I would like to find the relation the parametric curve defined by $F(x,y)=0$: Solve[-(1/2) + 1/2 (0.41202 BesselK[0, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]] + (0.101483 x BesselK[1, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]])/Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]) == 0, y] But I can't get an output: Solve was unable to solve the system with inexact coefficients or the system obtained by direct rationalization of inexact numbers present in the system. Since many of the methods used by Solve require exact input, providing Solve with an exact version of the system may help. >> Edit: In particular, I would like to fit the data coming from the curve with the expression of another curve, and not with a function $f(x)$. In particular, since this clearly looks like a cardioid , I would like it to fit to something like it. What other strategies could I try?

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
