Examples

Call two operations that manipulate remote API. This example uses an OData API, the odata.org Northwind reference service. In the example below, the first block will be executed only when the script is accessed using the POST method (an INSERT statement is executed), while the second block will be executed only when the script is accessed using the GET method (a SELECT statement is executed).

<api:script method="POST">
  <api:set attr="sql.rec:name" value="[_input.name]"/>
  <api:set attr="sql.rec:address" value="[_input.address]"/>
  <api:call op="sqliteInsert" in="sql">
    <api:push/>
  </api:call>
</api:script>
<api:script method="GET">
  <api:set attr="sql.query" value="SELECT * FROM [sql.table];"/>
  <api:call op="sqliteQuery" in="sql">
    <api:push/>
  </api:call>
</api:script>
