DataTable.ImportFromXml

Overview

Imports xml data to specified table. If record already exist in table it's updates existing. If no record exist a new record added to table. Comparison automatically done with table primary key.

DataTable myDataTable.ImportFromXml(options: QueryWithMappings)

Arguments

QueryWithMappings options

Specifies the import options and may contain one or more following properties:

Remarks

ColumnsXPath is used to specify additional secondary mapping path by XPath argument.

This method does not call save method after execuiton. If you want to save changes, you need to explicitly call Save method or use $Database.ImportFromXml instead.

Example

Common use for importing data

var table = $Database.Get({ Parameters : { TargetSchema : 'HR', TargetTable : 'Groups' } }); table.ImportFromXml({ XPath : 'Groups/Group' }); table.Save();

Example

Using map function

var table = $Database.Get({ Parameters : { TargetSchema : 'HR', TargetTable : 'Groups' } }); table.ImportFromXml({ XPath : 'Groups/Group', map : function (node) { this.Id = node.Evaluate('../Id'); } }); table.Save();

Types

QueryWithMappings

{ // Array of columns Columns : Array<QueryColumn> Map : (node: Xml) => void // Maximum number of rows. If not set all rows are returns. MaxLength : number // Root node of mapping. If not specified $Xml instance is used. Node : Xml // Array of order columns Order : Array<QueryOrder> // Additional parameters Parameters : object // Start index of rows. Start : number // Array of sub queries. SubQueries : Array<SubQuery> // Name of schema to execute query on. TargetSchema : string // Name of table to execute query on. TargetTable : string // Criteria of query Where : QueryBlock // Root xpath to be mapped. XPath : string }

QueryColumn

Defines a query column to included in result

{ // Expression of column. Expression : string // Name of column to use in results. If not specified expression is used. Name : string // XPath to be mapped. XPath : string }

QueryOrder

Defines order expression of query result

{ // Expression to order. Expression : string // Type of ordering. If not specified Ascending is used. Type : ( "Ascending" | "Descending" ) }

SubQuery

{ // Array of columns Columns : Array<QueryColumn> // Maximum number of rows. If not set all rows are returns. MaxLength : number // Name of sub query. Relation name can be used as name. Name : string // Array of order columns Order : Array<QueryOrder> // Additional parameters Parameters : object // Name of relation Relation : string // Start index of rows. Start : number // Array of sub queries. SubQueries : Array<SubQuery> // Name of schema to execute query on. TargetSchema : string // Name of table to execute query on. TargetTable : string // Criteria of query Where : QueryBlock // Specifies the target xpath to export data on. XPath : string }

QueryBlock

{ // Array of criteria blocks Blocks : Array<QueryBlock> // Condition with next block. If not specified And value is used. Condition : ( "And" | "Or" ) // Array of criteria Criteria : Array<QueryCriteria> }

QueryCriteria

Defines a criteria to be used to filter results

{ // Comparison operator. Default value is Equals. Comparison : ( "Equals" | "Different" | "LessThan" | "GreaterThan" | "LessThanOrEqualTo" | "GreaterThanOrEqualTo" | "Like" ) // Condition with next criteria. If not specified And value is used. Condition : ( "And" | "Or" ) // Criteria expression. Expression : string // Array of ignored values. IgnoredValues : any // Value or Expression to compare Value : any // Type of value. If not specified Direct value is used. ValueType : ( "Direct" | "Expression" ) }
