Collection of Automation Functional Tools I've built over time.

 

Functions:

 

Convert multi-line string to single line string -> does what it says, takes in a multi-line based string and converts to single

Convert String to Array of Characters -> takes an input string and outputs a table with 1 column being the index of the array, 1 colum being the character

Convert URL Characters to Escaped Characters -> takes a web URL and adds escaped characters where needed. You can input characters to "skip" conversion as well.

Execute DIV Function -> does a whole number divide of Input 1 / Input 2

Execute MOD Funciton -> does a modular of input 1 and input 2 , or input 1 MOD input 2

Extract GUID -> pulls the GUID out of return XML from CPO NBWS activities

Extract String with Ending Character -> takes in string, index (N) of where to start and a terminating character. It returns the string segment starting from the index to the terminating character

Execute Round Number -> takes in a number(decimal) and an optional number of places after decimal to round to. Rounds the number and returns it

Nix  - Find_And_Replace_Text_In_File -> uses the "sed" command to allow for quick search and replace to files in a Unix/Linux environment

Read File -> reads a flat file to output

Remove Target -> removes a target via NBWS from CPO

Hash File -> takes a file location, file name, and HASH TYPE, and returns the file hash for that file. Type examples are MD5, SHA, etc

Convert HTML Email To Text -> Takes in an HTML/RTF based email and strips tags and returns Text only

Extract HTML Tag -> extracts text from an HTML tag

Add_NewLine_Characters_To_Multi_Line_String -> takes a multi-line string and adds "\n" to each end of line for API processing

Create_JSON_Serialized_String -> uses windows powershell to ceeate a json serialized string

Check For File Existence - Takes in a file or folder path and returns if that path exists. If you select Check if Directory is Empty , then it will check if the directory has files in it or not. Returns True if files exist, false if nothing. If you just want to see if a directory exists, leave Check.If.Directory.Empty as false

Recursive File Delete - Delete all files from input folder. Delete folders/sub folders(and their files) depending on input settings

 

Base64Encode Basic Username and Password - takes in a username and pass and converts it to the string "username:password" and encodes it via Base64

 

Execute Factorial - takes an input number and returns it's factorial

 

Generate Random Decimal - takes in optional values of numbers before the decimal place and numbers after and generates a random number for each place wanted. If 0 is the input for each place, then the decimal will have a random number of numbers before and after decimal up to 15 places (CPO restriction)

 

Generate Random String - takes in a source library (defaults to the ASCII library) and a string length wanted and produces a random string of given length

 

***The below functions require .net Framework 4.5***

Even though CPO can run on 4.0, these functions use 4.5 libraries.

 

Unzip File - This unzips a zipped file to an extraction directory

Zip Folder - This zips up an entire folder to a given .ZIP file name

 

I use these all over the place so they work fine. It's a community tap so feel free to do with it as you will.
