Ignore dynamic dates in Response

[Ritu Arora]

Team- I am creating a services with RR pairs- SOAP, REST. There are some of the dates in response getting created as dynamic dates. I don't want to have any dynamic date in response. How can I achieve this. I need the response as is what is there in RR pair- no dynamic dates, no magic string.

I have many RR pairs and can't replace the response manually.

Appreciate your quick help.

Regards,
Ritu

Hi,

 

I am not aware of any "supported" way of achieving this. There are some unsupported ways so use the below at your own discretion.

 

• If this is a one-time fix or something you need to do sporadically then I would open up the generated VSI in Notepad++ and do a regex-replace-all and convert all magic date strings back to their original content. The original data can be found at the end of the magic date expression between the symbols. Use a regex group to capture what is between those symbols. From the top of my head maybe something like this:
• Find: \{\{=doDateDeltaFromCurrent.*;/\*(.*)\*/\}\}
• Replace: $1

 

• In your local.properties you could redefine the properties lisa.vse.datechecker.top.priorityorder and/or lisa.vse.datechecker.date.priorityorder  and remove your specific date format in those redefinitions.

 

Cheers,

Danny

Thanks much Danny. I am going to try the solution and see if that helps.

Also, this could be a very common requirement to have just static responses and no dynamic values to it. Surprise if we don't have any straight forward solution to it:(

Thanks much again. I will post further updates.
