Help: Count words in Response

[Damien]

I am currently using the below script in custom rules to highlight the session green and put "found" into the custom column, if the word "hello" is found in the session.

What I am trying to workout now, is how can I adjust this to display a count of "hello" into the custom column?

 

Script:​

if (oSession.utilFindInResponse("hello", false)>-1 && oSession.utilFindInResponse("startMap", false)>-1){
oSession["ui-color"] = "green"

oSession["ui-customcolumn"]="found"

 

Thanks

Hello, Damien--

There's nothing in Fiddler to specifically handle "counting" so this becomes a more general question of "how can I count occurrences of a substring in .NET?"

if (oSession.HostnameIs("whatever.com") && oSession.ResponseHeaders.ExistsAndContains("Content-Type", "text/"))
{
   var strText: String = oSession.GetResponseBodyAsString();

   var iCount = 0;
   // Call your counting function here. See e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/a/15142776/126229 for example

   if (iCount > 0) {
     oSession["ui-color"] = "green";
     oSession["ui-customcolumn"]="found " + iCount.ToString();
   }
}

Thanks Eric, 

 

It may sound stupid, but I was unable to get one of the counting functions on http://stackoverflow.com/a/15142776/126229 to work in fiddler

the string I am looking to a count in the response is "e_resource_events_gp6_pack_currency"

 how do I get it to count the variable "strText" that I've already declared?

 Can you paste an example of the full count function including these variable and count string

For general programming questions like this, StackOverflow is a great place to get help. Beyond a broader set of .NET programmers there to answer question, you are also encouraged to include specific details of what you've tried so far and what the results were.

// Create a column to fill with the count of the target string
public static BindUIColumn("#String", 60)
function FillCountColumn(oS: Session): String {
   if (!oS.bHasResponse) return String.Empty;
   if (!oS.oResponse.MIMEType.ToLower().StartsWith("text/")) return String.Empty;
   return CountSubstrings(oS.GetResponseBodyAsString(),
                          "e_resource_events_gp6_pack_currency").ToString();
}

// Count occurrences of "find" in "txt". Case-sensitive!
public static function CountSubstrings(txt: String, find: String): int
{
   var num: int = 0;
   var pos:int = 0;

   if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(txt) || String.IsNullOrEmpty(find)) return 0;

   while ((pos = txt.IndexOf(find, pos)) > -1)
   {
     num++;
     pos += find.Length;
   }
 
   return num;
}
