SimpleRecord Server-Side

This server class contains methods to operate the database records.

SimpleRecord(tableName)

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

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
tableName	String	Y	N

Example:

SimpleRecord

const taskRecord = new SimpleRecord('task');

REM attribute object

The SimpleRecord class has a special object for Record Extended Models – rem_attr that contains information about the REM attributes. Use it to read and edit REM attribute values of the current record with the methods as shown below.

rem_attr has a number of methods similar to the methods of the SimpleRecord:

Example:

record.rem_attr.getValue('my_rem_attribute');

Example:

get() using REM

const record = new SimpleRecord('task');
record.get('160638931615274614');
if (record.getReModelId()) {
    ss.info(record.rem_attr.description);
}

addOrCondition(property, operator, value)

This method adds the OR condition to an existing query. It works in conjunction with the addQuery() method. In this method, you can use any necessary operator from the condition operators list, specified in lower- or uppercase. Use the system names of the operators in the scripts.

You can also specify a RE model attribute of a specific table. To filter records, use the operators corresponding to the attribute type.

The condition may contain criteria based on the attribute of different RE models. If such criteria are built using the AND operator, the selection of records will be empty. To return records that match a condition, use the OR operator.

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
property	String	Y	N For the REM attributes use the following pattern: '<sys_id>:<attr_name>' where sys_id – the ID of the model that contain the attribute, and attr_name – the system name of the REM attribute.
operator	String (refer to the Condition Operators article for more information)	N	=
value	Integer or String or Boolean or Array or SimpleRecord object	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord	The instance, where the method was called.

Examples:

addOrCondition()

const record = new SimpleRecord('task');
record.addQuery('subject', 'like', 'not work')
record.addOrCondition('description', 'like', 'not work');
ss.info('Condition query: ' + record.getConditionQuery());
record.query();
// Info: Condition query: (subjectLIKEnot work)^OR(descriptionLIKEnot work)

addOrCondition() with a REM attribute

let record = new SimpleRecord('task');
record.addQuery('subject', 'like', 'not work')
record.addOrCondition('166972638116358001:description', 'contains', 'not work');
ss.info('Condition query: ' + record.getConditionQuery());
record.query();
// Info: Condition query: (subjectLIKEnot work)^OR(166972638116358001:descriptionLIKEnot work)

It is possible to pass the Reference field value as current.{reference_field_name} instead of the record ID as the addOrCondition() method value. The script example:

Passing SimpleRecord as an argument

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.setLimit(1);
task.query();
if (!task.next()) {
  ss.info('No tasks found!');
  return;
}

const relatedTask = new SimpleRecord('task');
relatedTask.addQuery('caller', task.caller);
relatedTask.addOrCondition('assigned_user', task.caller);
relatedTask.query();
ss.info('Tasks count: ' + relatedTask.getRowCount());
// Info: Tasks count: 122

addQuery(property, operator, value)

With this method you can add a condition to make a selection of records from the database. In this method, you can use any required operator from the condition operators list, specified in lower- or uppercase. Use the system names of the operatorы in the scripts.

You can also specify a RE model attribute of a specific table. To filter records, use the operators corresponding to the attribute type.

The condition may contain criteria based on the attribute of different RE models. If such criteria are built using the AND operator, the selection of records will be empty. To return records that match a condition, use the OR operator.

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
property	String	Y	N For the REM attributes use the following pattern: '<sys_id>:<attr_name>' where sys_id – the ID of the model that contain the attribute, and attr_name – the system name of the REM attribute.
operator	String (refer to the condition operators article for more information)	N	=
value	Integer/ String/ Boolean/ Array/ SimpleRecord object	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord	The instance, where the method was called.

Examples:

addQuery()

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.addQuery('active', true);
task.addQuery('subject', 'like', 'email');
task.addQuery('sys_created_at', '<', '2019-04-01 00:00:00');
task.query();
ss.info('Count: ' + task.getRowCount());
// Info: Count: 0

addQuery() with REM attribute

let record = new SimpleRecord('task');
record.addQuery('166972638116358001:description', 'not work');
record.query();
ss.info("Total rows: " + record.getRowCount());
// Info: Total rows: 1

It is possible to pass the value of the Reference field as current.{reference_field_name} instead of the record ID as the addQuery() в method value. The script example:

Passing SimpleRecord as an argument

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.setLimit(1);
task.query();
if (!task.next()) {
  ss.info('No tasks found!');
  return;
}

const otherTask = new SimpleRecord('task');
otherTask.addQuery('caller', task.caller);
otherTask.addQuery('sys_id', '!=', task.sys_id);
otherTask.query();
ss.info('Tasks count: ' + otherTask.getRowCount());
// Info: Tasks count: 720

addEncodedQuery(condition)

Use this method to add an encoded query to select records from the database.

You can also use a decoded query.

You can also specify a RE model attribute of a specific table. To filter records, use the operators corresponding to the attribute type.

The condition may contain criteria based on the attribute of different RE models. If such criteria are built using the AND operator, the selection of records will be empty. To return records that match a condition, use the OR operator.

Use curly brackets when setting a filter argument for the text fields of type String, Text, Translated Text, Conditions, and URL. Using parenthesis for the argument may cause a filter query error.

Filter with text fields

const subject = 'Hello, SimpleOne)';
const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.addEncodedQuery(`subjectLIKE${subject}`);
ss.info(task.getConditionQuery());
try {
    task.query();
} catch (e) {
   ss.error(e.message);
} 
// Info: (subjectLIKEHello, SimpleOne))
// Error: Condition query is invalid

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
condition	String	Y	N For the REM attributes use the following pattern: '<sys_id>:<attr_name>' where sys_id – the ID of the model that contains the attribute, and attr_name – the system name of the REM attribute.

Return:

Type	Description
Void	This method does not return a value.

Examples:

    reciever.addEncodedQuery(`(company=${currentUser.getValue('company')})`);
} else {
    reciever.addEncodedQuery(`%28sys_db_table_id%3D158645243815904649%5Esys_created_byDYNAMIC156957117519820256%29`);
}
ss.info('Decoded condition: ' + reciever.getConditionQuery());
reciever.query();
// Info: Decoded condition: (active=1)^((sys_db_table_id=158645243815904649^sys_created_byDYNAMIC156957117519820256))

ss.info(task.getRowCount());
task.setMultipleValue('state', '2'); // Open
// task.updateMultiple();

setReModelId(reModelId)

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

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
reModelId	String	Y	N

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

Return:

Type	Description

} else {
    task.setReModelId(null);
}
task.update();

When calling the method on a SimpleRecord() instance, the values of its attributes bound to the previous model will be reset.
After calling the method and updating the сurrent record, the attribute values bound to the previous model will be lost.

Example:

setReModelId

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