Leaderboard

Looking for the old leaderboard? We've moved the leaderboard to the overarching Hacktoberfest repository and have expanded its scope to all participating projects.

code-snippets's Issues

Restrict wiki editing to collaborators only

In prep of hacktoberfest 2023

Investigate more event types

for more potential scoring opportunities.

Fix "Fix Scripts" folder

• remove .DS_Store file from the parent folder
• break up each function into it's own .js file

make sure to reference this issue if you submit a pull request to fix this,

contributing.md should say what we expect from pull request title and comment

• a description of what is being submitted

(files being added/changed should be relevant to what is stated in the pull request title/comments)

Add "invitations" check to "assign to me" workflow

In ServiceNow we just have an "approver" checkbox, but that just initiates the collaborator invitation. We need to add a stop to the workflow:

1. do we know their github username?
2. if yes, are they an approver in servicenow?
3. if yes, are they still on the invitation list?
4. if no, allow assignment

Move app from devprogramresourcesdev to devprogramresources

Prepare for launch.

Rename the /Catalog Client Script/MRVS folder to be more descriptive

Update https://github.com/ServiceNowDevProgram/code-snippets/tree/main/Catalog%20Client%20Script/MRVS to a name that describes its content more (about looping through MRVS).

If you resolve this issue please be sure to say something like resolve #X in your pull request comment

Automate an index file/sitemap of all folders and subfolders

Data was wiped by accident, reconnect everything

add slash command to allow approvers to add new approvers

test issue - ok to close after assignment

"commit", "pull closed but not merged", "issue closed", and "new fork" links should be moved to thread

to reduce hyperlink unfurling from taking up all the space.
"pull request submitted" and "issue submitted" will still hyperlink and unfurl. once assigned, the unfurl goes away too.

Double quotes in the path name

Windows issue: a filename cannot contain double quotes.

Provide example on benefits and usage of API Model Template for New Application

This submission seems very interesting. I'd like to see more details about the benefits and how to use it.

Might need to house the main readme file in a template somewhere

so that it's easier to update, instead of having to go through the servicenow instance

Prevent common ways for point system abuse: Forks

• only one fork point allowed

Add "assign to me" behavior to pull requests

onChange client script defined on a MRVS is not working as expected

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var project = g_form.getReference('project_name', populateProjectNumber); 

}

function populateProjectNumber(project) {
g_form.setValue('project_number', project.u_project_number);
}

Prevent leaderboard from separating users who have earned the same amount of points

window == null to determine if in service portal not working

I've seen a few references to using window == null when trying to determine if in the platform or service portal. This only seems to work in my Rome PDI if isolate script is set to false

code-snippets/Client Scripts/Get URL Parameters/script.js

Lines 4 to 14 in b189fc0

	if(window == null){ // For Service Portal
	var url = top.location.href;
	var value = new URLSearchParams(url).get('sysparm_id'); //provide the parameter name
	console.log(value);
	}
	else{ //For Native UI
	var glideURL = new GlideURL();
	glideURL.setFromCurrent();
	var id = glideURL.getParam("sysparm_id"); // provide the parameter name
	console.log(id);
	}

I've found a workaround by using a try/catch block like the following:

https://github.com/litwi1rm/code-snippets/blob/63e1a015cecc56611aec8e03523e4fc2f631e555/Catalog%20Client%20Script/Clear%20all%20fields/script.js#L11-L24

Has anybody else ran into this?

Change target channel from code-snippets-dev to code-snippets

Cannot create directory 'UI Actions/Add "Show Workflow" Related link': Invalid argument

Invalid character in the folder name for windows.

" from "show workflow" should be removed for easy pull and merges of the repository on windows system.

g_form console access in workspace does not work in HR Agent workspace (Utah)

In Utah version of ServiceNow, it appears that the script provided in https://github.com/ServiceNowDevProgram/code-snippets/blob/main/Client%20Scripts/g_form%20console%20access%20in%20workspace/script.js no longer works. It appears that the element 'sn-workspace-content' is not part of/no longer exists in the HR agent workspace, as the function fails on the first line.

Verify readme.md is still accurate for Hacktoberfest 2023

Create a licensing file

Especially for starcoder reasons, if we open the license for this repository then it will only make the ServiceNow LLMs even stronger in the future.

Earl has to verify with legal first.

test issue - do not close

Slacker messages should be more detailed

right now, it just says "push by earlduque" and relies on the embed for more info. Or is the embed good enough?

Integrate repo leaderboard to slack channel

some kind of !gitpoints command to get the latest leaderboard for this repo ?

Replace standard Window methods with GlideModal equivalent

It is not recommended to use the standard Javascript Window methods for pop-ups. Let's get them replaced with GlideModal (or spModal for portal), i.e.:

Confirm

• Copy Variable Set UI Action
• Close Child Incident UI Action

Alert

• Mandatory Attachments Client Script
• Block Submit Catalog Client Script
• Mark Records Inactive UI Action
• Currency Validation Catalog Client Script
• GetCallerDetails Script Include client caller script

Found more? Feel free to add to the list!

Had a merged PR that fixes one or more of these? Tick 'em off!

Add instructions for new approvers when they gain access

Update documentation to state that this is not a servicenow application repository

ServiceNowDevProgram has many repositories that can be imported directly into ServiceNow, this is not one of them; This repository is meant to be edited directly in GitHub or any other Git-enabled IDE like VS Code.

the root readme is overwritten automatically so changes to the readme should be done on .github/templates/rootreadmetemplate.md. Pull request changes to this file will only be approved if attached to this issue.
