9 1 Velocity HQL query examples
10
11 XWiki allows user to access documents and objects with [hql>http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/reference/en/html/queryhql.html] queries in [Velocity>http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/user-guide.html] scripts. <br/>
12
13 #toc("" "" "")
14
15 1.1 Public API (searchDocuments)
16
17 #info("With this API the query consist in the WHERE condition.\\
18 Any user with edit rights can use this API (as in write a script using it).\\
19 Any user with view rights can view the result of such a query.")
20
21 You can execute queries as follows:
22 {code}
23 #set($query="where doc.creator='XWiki.VincentMassol'")
24 #set($results = $xwiki.searchDocuments($query, 5, 0))
25 #foreach ($item in $results)
26 * $item
27 #end
28 {code}
29
30 1.1.1 Simple Query
31 #set($hql="where doc.creator='XWiki.VincentMassol'")
32 #displayQuery($hql false)
33
34 1.1.1 Ordered Query
35 #set($hql="where doc.creator='XWiki.VincentMassol' order by doc.date asc")
36 #displayQuery($hql false)
37
38 1.1.1 Advanced Query (date & time)
39
40 Since there is no [standard way to calculate dates interval in HQL>http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2434] those queries are a bit unnatural.
41
42 #set($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")
43 #displayQuery($hql false)
44
45 {code}
46 Other examples, documents modified :
47
48 during current day : "where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) > (day(current_date()) - 1) order by doc.date desc"
49 during current week : "where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) > (day(current_date()) - 7) order by doc.date desc"
50 during current month : "where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) > (month(current_date()) - 1) order by doc.date desc"
51 {code}
52
53
54 1.1 Privileged API (search : Documents, Objects, Properties, etc)
55
56 #warning("Calls to te privileged API are only executed when the calling page has been saved by an Admin. \\
57 The reason is that search can be used to send any HQL command like update, delete, etc.")
58
59 You can execute queries as follows:
60 {code}
61 #set($query="select doc.name from XWikiDocument doc")
62 #set($results = $xwiki.search($query, 5, 0))
63 #foreach ($item in $results)
64 * $item <br/>
65 #end
66 {code}
67
68 1.1.1 Simply Query
69 #set($hql="select doc.name from XWikiDocument doc")
70 #displayQuery($hql true)
71
72 1.1.1 Count Query
73
74 {code}
75 #set($query="select count(doc) from XWikiDocument doc")
76 #set($results = $xwiki.search($query))
77 ## $xwiki.search returning a list, we get its first element
78 $query result : $results.get(0)
79 {code}
80
81 #set($query="select count(doc) from XWikiDocument doc")
82 #set($results = $xwiki.search($query))
83 $query results : $results.get(0)
84
85 <br/>
86 1.1.1 Simply Query with multiple fields
87
88 {code}
89 #set($results=$xwiki.search("select doc.name, doc.date from XWikiDocument doc", 5, 0))
90 #foreach ($row in $results)
91 #foreach ($col in $row)
92 #if ($velocityCount==1)
93 #set($docName=$col)
94 #elseif ($velocityCount==2)
95 #set($docDate=$col)
96 #end
97 #end
98 $docName : $docDate <br/>
99 #end
100 {code}
101
102 #set($hql="select doc.name, doc.date from XWikiDocument doc")
103 #displayQuery($hql true)

114
115 <br/>
