DataStoreDataExtensions.ImportJson(this IDataStoreBase dataStore, string text, DwBuffer dwbuffer, int startRow) Method

.NET Standard 2.x

Inserts data from a JSON string into the specified buffer of DataStore. You can specify the starting position in the JSON array. Data before the starting position will not be imported into the DataStore.

Assembly: DWNet.Data.dll

Syntax

  public static int ImportJson(this IDataStoreBase dataStore, string text, DwBuffer dwbuffer, int startRow);

Parameters

text System.String

A string specifying the JSON data.

The JSON string must comply with the plain-format JSON or DataWindow JSON.

dwbuffer DWNet.Data.DwBuffer

The specified buffer of the DataStore.

A value of the DwBuffer enumerated datatype identifying the DataWindow buffer into which you want to import the data.

For plain-format JSON: Imports the JSON data to the specified buffer.

For DataWindow JSON: Imports data from the specified buffer from the JSON string to the corresponding buffer.

startRow System.Int32

The zero-based number of the first row in the JSON array that you want to import. If it is negative, 0 is used.

Returns

System.Int32

Returns the number of rows that were imported if it succeeds.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to import the department data from the starting row in a JSON string to the specified buffer.

using DWNet.Data;
using System;
using System.IO;

namespace Appeon.ApiDoc.DataStoreDataExtensionsExamples
{
    public class ImportJsonExample
    {
        private readonly SchoolContext _context;

        public ImportJsonExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
        {
            // Sets the data context
            _context = dataContext;
        }

        public void Example3()
        {
            // Instantiates the datastore with datawindow: d_department
            var datastore = new DataStore("d_department", _context);

            // Gets the JSON file. ImportJson8.json contains 4 records.
            string path = Path.Combine(AppContext.BaseDirectory,
                                @"Jsons\IDatastore\ImportJson8.json");
            string json = File.ReadAllText(path);

            // Imports data from JSON to the DataStore primary buffer.
            // Imports from the first row.
            datastore.ImportJson(json, DwBuffer.Primary, 0);

            Console.WriteLine("Rowcount: {0}", datastore.RowCount);

            datastore.Reset();

            // Imports data from the second row of the JSON string to the primary buffer.

            datastore.ImportJson(json, DwBuffer.Primary, 1);

            Console.WriteLine("Rowcount: {0}", datastore.RowCount);

            /*This code produces the following output:

            Rowcount: 4
            Rowcount: 3
           */
        }
    }
}
