Similar to yesterday’s post, I started a basic AngularJS startup environment, something I can just grab and program with whenever I want to start a new angular app. It’s just a pain re-setting up the environment each time.
Borrow if you like or contribute, thanks!

I wrote this a while back to scrape a given URL page for all links it contains and then search those links for term relations. The Python scrapper first finds all links in a given url. It then searches all the links found for a list of search terms provided. It will return stats on the number of times specific provided terms show up.
This may come in handy while trying to find more information on a given topic. I’ve used it on Google searches (be careful, you can only scrape google once ever 8 or so seconds before you are locked out) and wikipedia pages to gather correlation statistics between topics.
It is old code… so there might be some errors. Keep me posted!

Sharepoint is not my most favorite environment to program in but I figure I’d share a cool javascript app I put together that communicates with Sharepoint’s SOAP API to add on to custom ‘like’ buttons (just like facebook!) With this feature, users can ‘like’ sharepoint items without going through the crazy sharepoint interface. This javascript can be added to a web interface, and users can ‘like’ items from there!
I wrote some javascript/jquery code that can easily retrieve the number of ‘likes’ for a sharepoint list item or list. The script basically queries Sharepoint’s built in social services for the tag count with SOAP POST calls.
Here is the script to get ‘like’ count:
<script>
function GetLikeCountFromService(strURL) {
var count = 0;
//change the webMethod var to match up to the correct sharepoint _vti_bin location. (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/Bb862916(v=office.12).aspx)
var webMethod = \'/_vti_bin/SocialDataService.asmx?op=GetTagTermsOnUrl\';
var soapEnv = "<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\' xmlns:xsd=\'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\' xmlns:soap=\'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\'> <soap:Body><GetTagTermsOnUrl xmlns=\'http://microsoft.com/webservices/SharePointPortalServer/SocialDataService\'> <url>" + strURL + "</url> <maximumItemsToReturn>1</maximumItemsToReturn> </GetTagTermsOnUrl> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope>";
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
async: true,
url: webMethod,
data: soapEnv,
contentType: "text/xml; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "xml",
success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) {
count = $(\'SocialTermDetail\', data).find(\'Count\').text();
}
});
return count;
}
</script>

Here is the script to post ‘likes’ to an article. Once again it’s a nice javascript that can put into an HTML header or what not.
Script to post a ‘like’:
function AddLikeCountFromService(strURL) {
//change the webMethod var to match up to the correct sharepoint _vti_bin location. (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/Bb862916(v=office.12).aspx)

//In the soapEnv request, you can change the title field to anything. This is the title of the thing the user is liking.
