SimpleRecord Server-Side

This server class provides methods to operate 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 – 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.

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

getValue()
setValue()
getTitle()
getDisplayValue()

For example:

record.rem_attr.getValue('my_rem_attribute');

Parameter:

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
property	String	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord object	This method returns the SimpleRecord object from the defined RE model. The method returns null if the record does not have a RE model.

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 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. Notice that you need to use the system name of the operator in your 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	N
value	Integer, String, Boolean, Array or SimpleRecord object	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord	The query containing OR condition added to the SimpleRecord object.

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 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 SimpleRecord object 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)

This method adds a condition to make a selection of records from the database. In this method, you can use any preferred operator from the Condition Operators list, specified either in lowercase or in uppercase. Note that you need to use system name of the operator in your 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	N
value	Integer or String or Boolean or Array or SimpleRecord object	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord	The query condition added to the SimpleRecord object.

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 SimpleRecord object as current.{reference_field_name} instead of the record ID as the method addQuery() 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)

This method adds encoded query and applies it to the current query method.

Decoded query is also applicable.

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>%3A<attr_name>' where sys_id – the ID of the model that contain the attribute, and attr_name – the system name of the REM attribute.

Return:

Type	Description
Void	This method does not return a value.

Examples:

addEncodedQuery

const currentUser = ss.getUser();
const receiver = new SimpleRecord('employee');
receiver.addQuery('active', true);
if (currentUser.company.class === 'internal') {
    receiver.addEncodedQuery(`(company=${currentUser.getValue('company')})`);
} else {
    receiver.addEncodedQuery(`%28sys_db_table_id%3D158645243815904649%5Esys_created_byDYNAMIC156957117519820256%29`);
}
ss.info('Decoded condition: ' + receiver.getConditionQuery());
receiver.query();
// Info: Decoded condition: (active=1)^((sys_db_table_id=158645243815904649^sys_created_byDYNAMIC156957117519820256))

addEncodedQuery with REM attributes

const receier = new SimpleRecord('task');
receiver.addQuery('active', true);
receiver.addEncodedQuery('%28sys_db_table_id%3D158645243815904649%5E166972638116358001%3AdescriptionLIKEwork`);
ss.info('Decoded condition: ' + receiver.getConditionQuery());
receiver.query();
// Info: Decoded condition: (active=1)^((sys_db_table_id=158645243815904649^166972638116358001:descriptionLIKEwork))

// Info: John Doe
// Info: 155931135900000001

getErrors()

If the record creating, updating or deleting fails, then this method will display an error message.

Use this method for control purposes if there any validation errors within your scripts.

Some validation errors may not be displayed within the debug process, so it is highly recommended to use this method.

For example, errors in condition queries passed by methods like addEncodedQuery(condition) or similar methods can be displayed by calling this method.

Return:

Type	Description
Array	The error value.

Example:

getErrors

const record = new SimpleRecord('user');
const insertedRecordId = record.insert();
if (insertedRecordId == 0) {
  ss.info(record.getErrors());
}
// Info: ["The \"\"First Name\" [first_name]\" field is mandatory. (record id: )",...

    ss.info(current.rem_attr.getTitle('reviewed'));
}
// Info: Review completed

To return column titles which are not part of REM, use the getLabel() method.

getValue(property)

This method returns the value of the object property based on its name.

If the field is of the Reference or List types, then its sys_id value returns.

To speed up the script execution, use this method to get values of the fields of the Reference type instead of Dot-walking.

As an example, it is preferable to use the current.getValue('reference_field') structure instead of current.reference_field.sys_id one.

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
property	String	Y	N

Return:

Type	Description
Mixed	The string value of the object property.

getValue

const current = ss.getUser();

ss.info(taskRecord.getAttributes().caller);
// Info: 
// Info: 155931135900000001

insert()

This method uses the field values of the current record to insert a new one.

If the record is not inserted then method returns '0' (zero) and adds an informative error message which can be obtained with getErrors() method.

Return:

Type	Description
String	If record was not inserted, then method returns '0' and you can get a message containing list of errors. As a normal case, a unique ID of the inserted record returns.

Example:

matchesCondition

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.description = 'emaio';
ss.info(task.matchesCondition('descriptionLIKEemail')); // false
task.description = 'email';
ss.info(task.matchesCondition('descriptionLIKEemail')); // true

next()

This method returns the next record in the query. If this is the first call, this method returns the first record in query. If the query is empty, this method returns 'false'.

Return:

Type
Record or Boolean

Example:

next

const user = new SimpleRecord('user');
user.setLimit(1);
user.query();

task.setLimit(1);
task.query();
// task.next();
ss.info(task.number);
// Error: Current record is not set.

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.

Do not use this method to select records that could be updated or deleted after selecting. Otherwise, some of the record field values may be lost when these records are updated or deleted. Or the action performed may throw an exception looking like this (the example text is given below):

You cannot update the record with the set of shortened attributes. Remove the selectAttributes method call and update again.

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
attributes	String or Array	Y	N

It makes sense to pass a single attribute name as a string. But if you need to pass more than one attribute names, please use Array type (as shown in code example below).

Return:

Type	Description
SimpleRecord object	This method returns a SimpleRecord object containing attributes and values. Regardless of the initial attribute set content, the returned object always contains the sys_id attribute. See code examples below for more clarity.

Example:

selectAttributes (String)

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:

selectAttributes (Array)

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.

Please note that the code will not be executed if it is typed after calling this method in the script body.

It is not recommended to use this method with async business rules. It may cause unpredictable system behavior.

Parameter(s):

task.query();
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
Void	This method does not return a value.

Example:

getReModelId

const task = new SimpleRecord('task');
task.get('163352033916904699');

}
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

    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)

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

Parameter(s):

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
property	String	Y	N
value	String	Y	N

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.

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default Value
enable	Boolean	N	true

Type	Description
Void	This property does not return a value.

silentMode

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.

This method is used for existing records.

If the record existed before, the changes are applied.
If the record did not exist before, the getErrors() method will return this error: "Unable to update new record. Use `insert()` instead. (record id: )"

Return:

Type

String

If record was not updated, then method returns '0' and you can get a message containing list of errors;

As a normal case, an ID of the updated record returns.

Example:

update

const current = new SimpleRecord('user');
current.get(ss.getUserId());
current.timezone_id = '156076775207670452'; // UTC
ss.info(current.update());
ss.info(current.getErrors());
// Info: 155931135900000001
// Info: []

updateMultiple()

This method updates all the selection entries.

Return:

Type	Description
Void or Integer	If validation errors occurred and record was not updated, then method returns '0' and you can get a message containing list of errors; Normally, this method does not return a value.
