var nodeDataSource = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getDataSource();

getMethod(name)

Get an existing foundset method for the datasource node.

Parameters String name The name of the method

Returns JSMethod

Returns Array

Sample

var method = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/orders").newMethod("function doubleSize() { return 2*getSize(); }");

application.output('Doubled orders for this customer: '+customers_to_orders.doubleSize())

newCalculation(code)

Creates a new calculation for the given code, the type will be the column where it could be build on (if name is a column name), else it will default to JSVariable.TEXT;

Parameters String code The code of the calculation, this must be a full function declaration.

Returns JSCalculation

Sample

var calc = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation() { return 123; }", JSVariable.INTEGER);
var calc2 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation2() { return '20'; }");
var calc3 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/employees").newCalculation("function myCalculation3() { return 'Hello World!'; }",	JSVariable.TEXT);

var c = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculation("myCalculation");
application.output("Name: " + c.getName() + ", Stored: " + c.isStored());

var allCalcs = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculations();
for (var i = 0; i < allCalcs.length; i++) {
	application.output(allCalcs[i]);
}

newCalculation(code, type)

Creates a new calculation for the given code and the type, if it builds on a column (name is a column name) then type will be ignored.

Parameters String code The code of the calculation, this must be a full function declaration. Number type The type of the calculation, one of the JSVariable types.

Returns JSCalculation

Sample

var calc = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation() { return 123; }", JSVariable.INTEGER);
var calc2 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation2() { return '20'; }");
var calc3 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/employees").newCalculation("function myCalculation3() { return 'Hello World!'; }",	JSVariable.TEXT);

var c = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculation("myCalculation");
application.output("Name: " + c.getName() + ", Stored: " + c.isStored());

var allCalcs = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculations();
for (var i = 0; i < allCalcs.length; i++) {
	application.output(allCalcs[i]);
}

newMethod(code)

Creates a new foundset method with the specified code.

Parameters String code the specified code for the foundset method

Returns JSMethod a JSMethod object

Sample

var method = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/orders").newMethod("function doubleSize() { return 2*getSize(); }");

application.output('Doubled orders for this customer: '+customers_to_orders.doubleSize())

removeCalculation(name)

Removes the calculation specified by name.

Parameters String name the name of the calculation to be removed

Returns Boolean true if the removal was successful, false otherwise

Sample

var calc1 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation1() { return 123; }", JSVariable.INTEGER);
var calc2 = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").newCalculation("function myCalculation2() { return '20'; }");

var c = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculation("myCalculation1");
application.output("Name: " + c.getName() + ", Stored: " + c.isStored());

solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").removeCalculation("myCalculation1");
c = solutionModel.getDataSourceNode("db:/example_data/customers").getCalculation("myCalculation1");
if (c != null) {
	application.output("myCalculation could not be removed.");
