DataSource

Interface

The interface for all data sources.

Conceptually, we have four types of data sources but all of them are created as data source object:

  • Main data source: the data source user added in data panel.
  • Data view: the data view user created in data panel.
  • Local data source: when multiple widgets connect to a main data source or a data view, they'll share the same data records. If you need to use a local data copy, you can create a local data source from a main data source by using DataSourceManager.getInstance().createLocalDataSource() .
  • Local data view: a local data source created from a data view.

Data view, local data source or local data view derived from the same main data source will share the same schema, same selection records, but may have different data records. The schema is in main data source only.

To share the selection between data source and view, we create a selection data view when creating the data source. The selection data source view ID is: ${dataSourceId}-selection . When selecting records, the selected records are copied to the selection data view.

Properties

PropertyTypeNotes
() => void

When current data source is created from an array of records, it will be saved in sourceRecords . Add the version of sourceRecords .setSourceRecords will add the version by default.

() => void

Update data source version.

The data source which this data source derives from.

(dataany) => DataRecord

Builds a data record only -- does not add the record into data source.

() => void

This function will clear the loaded records and won't clear the sourceRecords. Once the loaded records are cleared, the version in the data source info will be updated.

() => void

Clear both sourceRecords and loaded records. Both source version and version in data source info will be updated.

number

The total records count depends on the current query

The data source manager, which is used to manage the data source, including create/get/destroy the data source instance.

string

The data view ID configured in JSON.

() => void

Destroy the data source.

() => Promise<IMDataSourceSchema>

Fetch the data schema from an actual data source. If it's a statistic data source, the schema will not be fetched.

() => DataSource[]

Return the derived data views and local data sources.

Return data source count status.

() => IMDataSourceJson

The data source JSON object in app config.

(dataViewIdstring) => DataSource

Get data view by data view ID.

() => IMDataViewJson

Return the config of the current data source.

() => DataSource[]

Return all data views created from a main data source.

() => string

Return the data source ID field.

() => IMDataSourceInfo

Return the data source info in redux store.

() => string

Return data source label.

() => boolean

Return whether listen selection.

(localIdstring) => DataSource

Get local data source by local ID.

() => DataSource[]

Return all local data sources created from a main data source or data view.

Return the main data source.

(indexnumber) => DataRecord

Get record by index

(idstring) => DataRecord

Get record by ID

() => DataRecord[]

Get records

() => DataRecord[]

If selected records are not loaded in the current data source, they will be concatenated to the end of records array. For example, record 1 is selected in data view 1 and it is not loaded in data view 2 (record 1 actually matches query params of data view 2), dataView2.getRecordsWithSelection() will return all loaded records in data view 2 and record 1.

Return the root data source.

The schema returned here is the merged result of the configured schema and the fetched schema. The configured schema is the user's changes, such as a new data source name. The fetched schema is the original schema from AGOL/portal item or a remote database, such as the service name, the fields and the filters.
