Class: JsonBatch

Transaction implementation for JSON module. Transactions allow the execution of a group of commands in a single step. See Transaction and ClusterTransaction.

Example

const transaction = new Transaction();
JsonBatch.set(transaction, "doc", ".", '{"a": 1.0, "b": 2}');
JsonBatch.get(transaction, "doc");
const result = await client.exec(transaction);

console.log(result[0]); // Output: 'OK' - result of JsonBatch.set()
console.log(result[1]); // Output: '{"a": 1.0, "b": 2}' - result of JsonBatch.get()

Constructors

Constructor

new JsonBatch(): JsonBatch

Returns

JsonBatch

Methods

arrappend()

static arrappend(transaction, key, path, values): Transaction | ClusterTransaction

Appends one or more values to the JSON array at the specified path within the JSON document stored at key.

Parameters

transaction

A transaction to add commands to.

Transaction | ClusterTransaction

key

GlideString

The key of the JSON document.

path

GlideString

The path within the JSON document.

values

GlideString[]

The JSON values to be appended to the array. JSON string values must be wrapped with quotes. For example, to append "foo", pass "\"foo\"".

Command Response - - For JSONPath (path starts with $): Returns an array with a list of integers for every possible path, indicating the new length of the array, or null for JSON values matching the path that are not an array. If path does not exist, an empty array will be returned. - For legacy path (path doesn't start with $): Returns an integer representing the new length of the array. If multiple paths are matched, returns the length of the first modified array. If path doesn't exist or the value at path is not an array, an error is raised. - If the index is out of bounds or key doesn't exist, an error is raised.

Returns

Transaction | ClusterTransaction


arrindex()

static arrindex(transaction, key, path, scalar, options?): Transaction | ClusterTransaction

Searches for the first occurrence of a scalar JSON value in the arrays at the path. Out of range errors are treated by rounding the index to the array's start and end. Ifstart>end, return-1` (not found).

Parameters

transaction

A transaction to add commands to.

Transaction | ClusterTransaction

key

GlideString

The key of the JSON document.

path

GlideString

The path within the JSON document.

scalar

options?

(Optional) Additional parameters: - (Optional) start: The start index, inclusive. Default to 0 if not provided. - (Optional) end: The end index, exclusive. Default to 0 if not provided. 0 or -1 means the last element is included. Command Response - - For JSONPath (path starts with $): Returns an array with a list of integers for every possible path, indicating the index of the matching element. The value is -1 if not found. If a value is not an array, its corresponding return value is null. - For legacy path (path doesn't start with $): Returns an integer representing the index of matching element, or -1 if not found. If the value at the path is not an array, an error is raised.
