5 | = HQL Query Examples in Velocity = | ||
6 | |||
7 | XWiki allows user to access documents and objects with [[HQL>>http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/reference/en/html/queryhql.html]] queries in [[Velocity>>http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/user-guide.html]] scripts. | ||
8 | |||
9 | == Public API (##searchDocuments##) == | ||
10 | |||
11 | {{velocity}} | ||
12 | {{html}} | ||
13 | #info("With this API the query consist in the WHERE condition of a full HQL query. Any user with edit rights can write a script using this API. Any user with view rights can view the result of such a query.") | ||
14 | {{/html}} | ||
15 | {{/velocity}} | ||
16 | |||
17 | General example showing how to display the first 5 results of a given query: | ||
18 | |||
19 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
20 | #set($hql = "<query here>") | ||
21 | #set($results = $xwiki.searchDocuments($hql, 5, 0)) | ||
22 | #foreach ($item in $results) | ||
23 | * $item | ||
24 | #end | ||
25 | {{/code}} | ||
26 | |||
27 | The examples below will show you various HQL queries that you can write. | ||
28 | |||
29 | === Simple Query === | ||
30 | |||
31 | Displays all documents who have been created by the user ##XWiki.JohnDoe##: | ||
32 | |||
33 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
34 | #set($hql = "where doc.creator='XWiki.JohnDoe'") | ||
35 | {{/code}} | ||
36 | |||
37 | === Ordered Query === | ||
38 | |||
39 | Displays all documents who have been created by the user ##XWiki.JohnDoe## and sorted by document's last modification date, in ascending order: | ||
40 | |||
41 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
42 | #set($hql = "where doc.creator='XWiki.VincentMassol' order by doc.date asc") | ||
43 | {{/code}} | ||
44 | |||
45 | === Advanced Query (date & time) === | ||
46 | |||
47 | {{velocity}} | ||
48 | {{html wiki="true"}} | ||
49 | #info("Since there is no [[standard way to calculate dates interval in HQL>>http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2434]] those queries are a bit unnatural.") | ||
50 | {{/html}} | ||
51 | {{/velocity}} | ||
52 | |||
53 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
54 | #set($hql = "where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) = day(current_date()) and hour(doc.date) > (hour(current_time()) - 1) order by doc.date desc") | ||
55 | {{/code}} | ||
56 | |||
57 | Other examples: | ||
58 | |||
59 | * Listing all documents modified during the current day: {{code language="none"}}where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) > (day(current_date()) - 1) order by doc.date desc{{/code}} | ||
60 | * Listing all documents modified during the current week: {{code language="none"}}where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) > (day(current_date()) - 7) order by doc.date desc{{/code}} | ||
61 | * Listing all documents modified during the current month: {{code language="none"}}where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) > (month(current_date()) - 1) order by doc.date desc{{/code}} | ||
62 | * Comparing two dates: {{code language="none"}}where ((year(date1) > year(date2) OR (year(date1) = year(date2) AND month(date1) > month(date2)) OR (year(date1) = year(date2) AND month(date1) = month(date2) AND day(date1) >= day(date2)){{/code}} | ||
63 | |||
64 | == Privileged API (##search##) == | ||
65 | |||
66 | {{velocity}} | ||
67 | {{html wiki="true"}} | ||
68 | #warning("Calls to te privileged API are only executed when the calling page has been saved by a user with **Programming Rights**. The reason is that search can be used to send dangerous HQL command like update, delete, etc.") | ||

76 | #set($results = $xwiki.search($hql, 5, 0)) | ||

90 | === Count Query === | ||
91 | |||
92 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
93 | #set($results = $xwiki.search("select count(doc) from XWikiDocument doc")) | ||
94 | ## Since $xwiki.search is returning a list, we get its first element | ||
95 | Count : $results.get(0) | ||
96 | {{/code}} | ||
97 | |||
98 | === Simple Query with multiple fields === | ||
99 | |||

103 | #foreach ($col in $row) | ||
104 | #if ($velocityCount == 1) | ||
105 | #set($docName = $col) | ||
106 | #elseif ($velocityCount == 2) | ||
107 | #set($docDate = $col) | ||
