This server class provides methods to operate database records.

SimpleRecord(tableName)

This method instantiates a SimpleRecord class object for a particular table.

Parameter(s):

Example:

const taskRecord = new SimpleRecord('task');

addOrCondition(property, operator, value)

This method appends a 2-or-3 parameter OR condition to an existing query. It works in conjunction with any of the addQuery() methods. In this method, you can use any preferred operator from the Condition Operators list, specified either in lowercase or in uppercase. Please notice that you need to use system name of the operator in your scripts.

REM attribute object

The SimpleRecord class has a special object for Record Extended Models – rem_attr – containing information about the REM attributes. It is used to read and edit REM attributes values of the current record with other class methods as in the example below.

ParameterParameter(s):

Return:

Return:

Example:

const lastComment = new SimpleRecord('sys_activities_stream_field');
lastComment.orderByDesc('sys_created_at'); // newest record first
lastComment.setLimit(1);
lastComment.selectAttributes(['value', 'sys_created_by']);
lastComment.query();
lastComment.next();
ss.info(lastComment.sys_created_by.display_name + ': ' + lastComment.value);
// Info: John Doe: test

query()

This method applies query to the database selection. After this, it fills in the record set.

Return:

Example:

const tasks = new SimpleRecord('task');
tasks.addQuery('sys_created_at', '>', '2020-01-01');
tasks.orderBy('sys_created_at');
tasks.setLimit(2);
tasks.query();
while (tasks.next()) {
  ss.info('Task number: ' +  tasks.number);
}
// Info: Task number: TSK0000001
// Info: Task number: TSK0000003

selectAttributes(attributes)

This method is intended to optimize database queries. Sometimes, it is necessary to obtain only several object fields, not the whole object. Therefore, this method was added.

Return:

Example:

const record = new SimpleRecord('user');
record.selectAttributes('email');
record.query();
record.next();
ss.info(record.getAttributes());
// Info: {"email":"john.doe@email.com","sys_id":"162423321917274937"}

Example:

const record = new SimpleRecord('user');
record.selectAttributes(['email', 'username']);
record.query();
record.next();
ss.info(record.getAttributes());
// Info: {"email":"john.doe@email.com","username":"john.doe","sys_id":"162423321917274937"}

setAbortAction(flag)

This method is used in business rules and sets a flag, indicating that the current operation (insert/update/delete) will be interrupted.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

const current = new SimpleRecord('task');
current.get('163663310116371174');
const hasAttach = current.hasAttachment();
if (!hasAttach) {
    ss.addErrorMessage('File should be attached!');
    current.setAbortAction(true);
}
current.state = '2'; // Open
current.update();

setLimit(maxNumRecords)

This method limits the number of records selected by SimpleRecord query methods.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

const record = new SimpleRecord('user');
record.setLimit(3);
record.query();
ss.info(record.getRowCount());
// Info: 3

setMultipleValue(property,value)

This method sets the properties values for every entry in the current selection.

Parameter(s):

Return:

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.addQuery('state', '7'); // Draft
task.query();
ss.info(task.getRowCount());
task.setMultipleValue('state', '2'); // Open
// task.updateMultiple();

setReModelId(reModelId) 

Anchor
setremodelid setremodelid

This method sets the ID of the defined RE model. To get the model ID, use the getReModelId method.

Parameter(s):

If the reModelId parameter is equal to 'null', the REM, related to the record, will be detached. 

Return:

Example:

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.get('163352033916904699');
if (task.getValue('service') === '164069027812962298') { // Email Server Service
    task.setReModelId('158569205818704980'); // Email Server Access Request
} else {
    task.setReModelId(null);
}
task.update();

Example:

(function executeRule(current, previous = null /*not null only when action is update*/ ) {
    // before rule triggered by service change

    ss.importIncludeScript('getRemAttributes');
    const rmc = new SimpleRecord('sys_rmc_model');
    rmc.addQuery('cmdb_service_id', current.getValue('service'));
    rmc.addQuery('active', true);
    rmc.selectAttributes('sys_id');
    rmc.setLimit(1);
    rmc.query();
    if (rmc.next()) {
        const previousModelAttributes = getRemAttributes(current);
        current.setReModelId(rmc.sys_id);
        const currentModelAttributes = getRemAttributes(current);

        Object.keys(previousModelAttributes).forEach(attributeName => {
            if (currentModelAttributes.hasOwnProperty(attributeName)) {
                current.rem_attr[attributeName] = previousModelAttributes[attributeName];
            }
        })
    } else {
        current.setReModelId(null);
    }

})(current, previous);

setValue(property, value) 

Anchor
setValue() setValue()

This method sets the value of the field in the current record.

Parameter(s):

Return:

Example:

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.setValue('subject', 'mail');
task.insert();

silentMode(enable)

This method is intended to update the record without executing any entities related to this record implementing the business logic, such as business rules, notifications, workflows, etc.

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.addQuery('active', false);
task.addQuery('approval_state', 'isempty');
task.query();
ss.info(task.getRowCount());
task.silentMode();
task.setMultipleValue('approval_state', 'not_requested'); // set Default Value
//task.updateMultiple();

update()

This method updates a database record.

Return:

Example:

const current = new SimpleRecord('taskuser');
current.get('undefined'ss.getUserId());
current.subjecttimezone_id = 'Test156076775207670452';
const updatedRecordID = // UTC
ss.info(current.update();
ss.info(updatedRecordID);
ss.info(current.getErrors());
// Info: 0155931135900000001
// Info: ["Invalid condition query: Use only digits","Unable to update new record. Use `insert()` instead. (record id: )"]

updateMultiple()

This method updates all the selection entries.

Return:

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.addQuery('state', '0'); // Open
task.query();
ss.info(task.getRowCount());
task.setMultipleValue('state', '10'); // Canceled
// task.updateMultiple();
