本記事では、CData API Server とADO.NET Provider for Exact Online (もしくは200+ の他のADO.NET Providers) を組み合わせて、バックエンドの同期DB を使わずに、リアルタイムExact Online API にリアルタイム連携するSAPUI5 アプリを開発できます。API Server は、Exact Online data のOData フィードを生成するライトウェイトなアプリです。OData はSAPUI5 およびOpenUI5 でサポートされています。
Follow the steps below to begin producing secure Exact Online OData services:
The API Server runs on your own server. On Windows, you can deploy using the stand-alone server or IIS. On a Java servlet container, drop in the API Server WAR file. See the help documentation for more information and how-tos.
The API Server is also easy to deploy on Microsoft Azure, Amazon EC2, and Heroku.
After you deploy the API Server and the ADO.NET Provider for Exact Online, provide authentication values and other connection properties needed to connect to Exact Online by clicking Settings -> Connections and adding a new connection in the API Server administration console.
Exact Online uses the OAuth authentication standard. The InitiateOAuth connection property facilitates the OAuth flow -- by default, this is set to GETANDREFRESH. You can also use the embedded OAuth credentials or you can register an OAuth app with Exact to obtain your own. In addition to the OAuth values, provide the Region. If Division is not set, the default Division is determined.
See the "Getting Started" chapter of the help documentation for more information.
You can then choose the Exact Online entities you want to allow the API Server access to by clicking Settings -> Resources. This article uses Accounts as an example.
After determining the OData services you want to produce, authorize users by clicking Settings -> Users. The API Server uses authtoken-based authentication and supports the major authentication schemes. You can authenticate as well as encrypt connections with SSL. Access can also be restricted by IP address; Access is restricted to only the local machine by default.
In this article the user views and interacts with Exact Online data through an SAPUI5 table control. Table columns will be automatically detected from the metadata retrieved from the API Server's API endpoint. We define the following table in a separate View.view.xml file:
<mvc:View
controllerName="sap.ui.table.sample.OData2.Controller"
xmlns="sap.ui.table"
xmlns:mvc="sap.ui.core.mvc"
xmlns:u="sap.ui.unified"
xmlns:c="sap.ui.core"
xmlns:m="sap.m">
<m:Page
showHeader="false"
enableScrolling="false"
class="sapUiContentPadding">
<m:content>
<Table
id="table"
selectionMode="MultiToggle"
visibleRowCount="10"
enableSelectAll="false"
rows="{/Accounts}"
threshold="15"
enableBusyIndicator="true"
columns="{
path: 'meta>/dataServices/schema/[${namespace}===\'CData\']/entityType/[${name}===\'Accounts\']/property',
factory: '.columnFactory'
}">
<toolbar>
<m:Toolbar>
<m:Title text="Exact Online Accounts"></m:Title>
</m:Toolbar>
</toolbar>
<noData>
<m:BusyIndicator class="sapUiMediumMargin"/>
</noData>
</Table>
</m:content>
</m:Page>
</mvc:View>
In SAPUI5, you do not need to write any OData queries; an ODataModel instance handles the application's data access commands. The API Server then translates the queries into Exact Online API calls.
The controller processes user input and represents information to the user through a view. Define the controller in a new file, Controller.controller.js. Instantiate the model in the onInit function -- you will need to replace the placeholder values for the URL to the API Server, a user allowed to access the OData endpoint of the API Server, and the authtoken for the user.
sap.ui.define([
"sap/ui/core/mvc/Controller",
"sap/ui/model/odata/v2/ODataModel",
"sap/ui/model/json/JSONModel",
"sap/ui/table/Column",
"sap/m/Text",
], function(Controller, ODataModel, JSONModel, Column, Text ) {
"use strict";
return Controller.extend("sap.ui.table.sample.OData2.Controller", {
onInit : function () {
var oView = this.getView();
var oDataModel = new ODataModel("http://myserver/api.rsc/",{user: "MyUser", password: "MyAuthToken"});
oDataModel.getMetaModel().loaded().then(function(){
oView.setModel(oDataModel.getMetaModel(), "meta");
});
oView.setModel(oDataModel);
var oTable = oView.byId("table");
var oBinding = oTable.getBinding("rows");
var oBusyIndicator = oTable.getNoData();
oBinding.attachDataRequested(function(){
oTable.setNoData(oBusyIndicator);
});
oBinding.attachDataReceived(function(){
oTable.setNoData(null); //use default again ("no data" in case no data is available)
});
},
onExit : function () {
},
columnFactory : function(sId, oContext) {
var oModel = this.getView().getModel();
var sName = oContext.getProperty("name");
var sType = oContext.getProperty("type");
var iLen = oContext.getProperty("maxLength");
iLen = iLen ? parseInt(iLen, 10) : 10;
return new Column(sId, {
sortProperty: sName,
filterProperty: sName,
width: (iLen > 9 ? (iLen > 50 ? 15 : 10) : 5) + "rem",
label: new sap.m.Label({text: "{/#Accounts/" + sName + "/@name}"}),
hAlign: sType && sType.indexOf("Decimal") >= 0 ? "End" : "Begin",
template: new Text({text: {path: sName}})
});
}
});
});
Create a component that contains the resources of your application. Define the following in Component.js:
sap.ui.define([
'sap/ui/core/UIComponent'
], function(UIComponent) {
"use strict";
return UIComponent.extend("sap.ui.table.sample.OData2.Component", {
metadata : {
rootView : "sap.ui.table.sample.OData2.View",
dependencies : {
libs : [
"sap.ui.table",
"sap.ui.unified",
"sap.m"
]
},
config : {
sample : {
stretch : true,
files : [
"View.view.xml",
"Controller.controller.js"
]
}
}
}
});
});
To complete the MVC application, simply add the bootstrap and initialization code. Add these directly to index.html:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="ie=edge" />
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Exact Online Accounts</title>
<script id="sap-ui-bootstrap"
src="https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/resources/sap-ui-core.js"
data-sap-ui-libs="sap.m"
data-sap-ui-theme="sap_bluecrystal"
data-sap-ui-xx-bindingSyntax="complex"
data-sap-ui-preload="async"
data-sap-ui-compatVersion="edge"
data-sap-ui-resourceroots='{"sap.ui.table.sample.OData2": "./", "sap.ui.demo.mock": "mockdata"}'>
</script>
<!-- application launch configuration -->
<script>
sap.ui.getCore().attachInit(function() {
new sap.m.App ({
pages: [
new sap.m.Page({
title: "Exact Online Accounts",
enableScrolling : false,
content: [ new sap.ui.core.ComponentContainer({
height : "100%", name : "sap.ui.table.sample.OData2"
})]
})
]
}).placeAt("content");
});
</script>
</head>
<!-- UI Content -->
<body class="sapUiBody" id="content" role="application">
</body>
</html>
The resulting SAPUI5 table control reflects any changes to a table in the remote Exact Online data. You can now browse and search current Exact Online data.
