![]() Or are they stored on the server elsewhere?ģ. How do I get the XML versions of the workflows from the Mongo?Ģ. This collection has several records, but I haven't figured out how to identify them by flow name and the Data entry there decodes as a bunch of symbols.ġ. After poking around a little more, I found AS_Applications.Files, but it only has one record despite having more than one flow saved in the Gallery. After Decoding _ServiceData with Python, all I've gotten is a formatted string that holds some generic info about the flow possibly because I'm using a different version of Alteryx(?). It looks like it's accessing the AS_Applications collection in the MongoDB, but when I go there with Robo 3T (formerly RoboMongo), the only field that I see that could be the flow is _ServiceData. I found this post which contains a workflow to find and download workflows from the server. It doesn't really matter to me by what means this is accomplished (Python, Java, Alteryx or some combo thereof are most readily available) This older client has been deprecated in MongoDB 5.0 and is not expected to be maintained in the future. Since the flows have to be stored on the Server somewhere, my idea is to find them and iterate through them searching for SQL queries and grab the tables from there. Robo 3T is deeply based on the Mongo shell client. And Studio 3T comes at a whoppy 200 bucks/year, so would I get anything more from latter Which justifies 200/yr. Robomanager got acquired by 3T, so I wouldnt expect any advanced features. I've been asked to supply an app that searches the current workflows on the Gallery for the Database tables and schemas that are used and which flows they are in. MongoDB Compass looks great and is free, is there any reason to use Robo 3T or Studio 3T anymore Pretty much the title.

![]() While several other football games were released on the Vita, the true leader in this genre is FIFA. However, during its life, it has been blessed with several great sports titles for fans to play on the go. Third entries rarely change things up so much in such a faithful which is why after just an hour of play, I can’t wait to get back to Radlandia once it releases later this year on consoles and PC.The PS Vita was a technological marvel that didn’t get the interest and success it deserved. Its art style is yet another manifestation of its desire for change as it went from gorgeous pixel art to a stylized 3D world (that also allows it to have more complex levels). The OlliOlli World gameplay changes help the game feel less like a samey follow-up and more like its own title that thoughtfully expands upon its foundation. These small tweaks give hardcore players the depth they want while the other changes make this the most welcoming OlliOlli to date. It’s such a departure for the park-based series, but it feels incredible and allows for some incredibly cool levels to be built around the idea (such as going downhill and changing directions). The first time the game led me to a vert ramp I was jaw dropped as I launched into the air, did a trick, and managed to land it. The trick system has also seen yet another reinvention with the addition of grab tricks, which I admittedly didn’t do many as I’m so used to only flipping and grinding in the series, and actual vert ramps complete with reverts. This not only adds replayability as players take on goals but adds a layer to strategy as players figure out what sections are best for their play style and preferred combos. While there had been low and high grounds to take in past titles, there are now fully fleshed out alternate pathways through levels. This highlights another thing new to OlliOlli World: a focus on exploration. This becomes less about tricks and more about maneuverability. Players grind billboards and other objects that allow them to clear ridiculously long gaps as a result. Wall rides are another new addition and one that allows for some really cool gameplay sections. RELATED: Interview: OlliOlli Devs Speak On New Art, Welcoming in Players, THPS1+2, and More I eventually realized I had to focus a bit more on speed rather than score to clear the gap and I eventually cleared the challenging gap. There was one tricky section featuring a wall ride (more on that in a bit) that I failed several times as I was losing speed trying to keep my combo alive. It’s a dope addition that allows for even more difficult levels and sections, giving the game a bit of a Trials feel as a result. That thrill is still in OlliOlli World, but the series is also more accessible than ever thanks to a new checkpoint system. OlliOlli2 catered toward hardcore players and dared them to go through entire levels without ever exiting a combo. RELATED: OlliOlli World Wants To Be the Best Skateboarding Game for Everyone While we haven’t seen every addition yet, there are five that already make the game more than just another OlliOlli: checkpoints, wall rides, better alternate pathways, grab-based tricks, and vert ramps. Well, it turns out there’s a reason why I’m not a game designer as the talented team at Roll7 has come up with a number of new additions that make OlliOlli World not only feel fresh but a proper reinvention of the franchise. I’d be more than happy to play more levels, but how would developer Roll7 manage to meaningfully improve upon the sequel? That’s why when OlliOlli World was announced, I was happy, but it felt almost unnecessary. To compare it to the most well-known skating series, OlliOlli2 felt like Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, where the combo system was also finally complete and refined to the point where additional games could add more features but they wouldn’t ever change the core gameplay. From PlayStation 4 and Xbox One to a trio of Nintendo consoles, I found myself playing OlliOlli on every system available and was equally as enthralled with the sequel, OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood, which completed the trick system by adding in manuals. Levels were quick and skill-based with players being forced to focus on timing grinds and landing tricks successfully by hitting the X button upon landing. ![]() When OlliOlli launched on PlayStation Vita back in 2014, I instantly found myself hooked by its arcade structure.

Ishiyaki means “stone-grilled,” and the ingredients are served inside a heated earthenware bowl, so that they cook at the table while you’re eating. Maybe because she was eating slower since she’d ordered three things at once, Ikuna’s fried rice get especially fried, acquiring a cracker-like crispness. ▼ Ikuna recommends dipping them in Wa no Naka’s special garlic soy sauce (にんにく醤油).įinally, the server’s third recommendation was the ishiyaki gyoza fried rice (878 yen). The ingredients were fantastically flavorful and juicy, with the vegetables in particular having a noticeable sweetness to them. The dumplings were adorably plump, with a noticeable chewiness and wheaty flavor to their skin. Ikuna did, also, try Wa no Naka’s gyoza (363 yen), since the staff recommended them and she didn’t know when, if ever, she’d be dining out in the suburbs of Utsunomiya again. It also came with a thick, tender cut of chashu pork, a much more generous portion than you usually get for ramen at his price point in Japan. ![]() ![]() Really, it reminded Ikuna of the local ramen shop she’d loved eating at in the neighborhood she grew up in. The flavor was elegant and refined, with each sip of the rich broth ending with a crisp saltiness free of excessive oiliness in the aftertaste. Starting with the non-gyoza item, she got herself a bowl of shio (salt broth) ramen, for 768 yen (US$6.70). Ikuna was now starving, and so when she asked her server what they recommended and got back three answers, she decided to try them all, even if two of them either were or contained gyoza. Even though it was past the lunch rush, there was still a line of people waiting to get in, but in Japan that’s usually a sign that the food is really tasty, so Ikuna didn’t mind the wait.Īfter 20 minutes of waiting, Ikuna was led inside Wa no Naka’s eclectic interior, with its charming wooden fixtures and furniture, rustic tableware, and order touch screens tablets.

I do get a lot of passengers who ask me to take them there, though, so I think it’s a pretty popular place.” “If you end up thinking the restaurant I’m taking you to tastes bad, then I apologize. “But you know, whether or not food tastes good is a matter of personal taste,” the driver said as he drove. It’s not a gyoza-main place, though.” Ikuna assured him that that would be fine, and he pulled into traffic and started driving west from the station. But after thinking it over a little more, he said “There’s a place I can recommend, but they serve gyoza. ![]() This wasn’t an off-the-cuff answer just to blow Ikuna off, considering how long he’d taken before responding. He spent several moments deep in thought, before answering: The unusual question seemed to take the driver by surprise, what with gyoza being the first thing almost everyone wants to eat once they arrive in town. ▼ Clockwise from top left: an Utsunomiya gyoza restaurant, an Utsunomiya gyoza sticker picture booth, Ikuna posing with Utsunomiya’s gyoza statue, and the entrance to Utsunomiya’s Gyoza Road.īut when Ikuna hopped into a cab outside Utsunomiya Station, she asked the driver “Can you please take me to a good place to eat that’s not a gyoza restaurant?” Utsunomiya is famous for gyoza, and you can find restaurants specializing in the delicious dumplings all over the city. On her visit to Tochigi Prefecture’s Utsunomiya, though, our reporter Ikuna Kamezawa pulled a 180 on our usual plan. That’s why we asked for the best takoyaki place in Osaka and seafood in Otaru.
