Overview

Exports the data table content to xml data. For each row in data table a new xml child created on specified xpath.

DataTable $Database.ExportToXml(query: QueryWithMappings)

Arguments

Query of data to export.

Remarks

The design of your XML data model and SQL table columns are the key point for the ease of use. When XML node and table column names identical, this method maps them automatically.

$Database.ExportToXml, and ,$Database.ImportFromXml, methods requires a unique primary key field on database table and data model.

Map Function

Map function is used to transform values before saving. For example; encrypting a password before saving to database. See $Database.ImportFromXml for more details.

Example

$Database.ExportToXml({
    TargetSchema : 'MySchema',
    TargetTable : 'Accounts',
    XPath : 'Accounts/Account',
    Map : function (accountXml) {
        this.Password = 'Enc:' + this.Password; // mark as encrypted
        this.AccountType = accountXml.Evaluate('Type/Code');  // map values whose names are not identical to SQL column names
    }
});

Example

Exporting database content into XML
// For following xml structure
// <Root>
//    <Groups></Groups>
// </Root>
$Database.ExportToXml({
    Parameters : {
        TargetSchema : 'HR',
        TargetTable : 'Groups'
    },
    XPath : 'Groups/Group',
    Order : [
        {Name : 'Name', Type : 'Ascending'}
    ]
});
// Xml updated as;
// <Root>
//   <Groups>
//     <Group>
//        <Name>Developers (Junior)</Name>
//     </Group>
//     <Group>
//        <Name>Testers</Name>
//     </Group>
//   </Groups>
// </Root>

Example

Exporting with sub queries
// Export corporations with the subcorporations
Database.ExportToXml({
    Parameters : {
        TargetSchema : 'Evrak',
        TargetTable : 'Kurum'
    },
    XPath : 'Corporations/Corporation',
    SubQueries : [
        {Name : 'SubCorporations'}
    ]
});
