Hjælpefunktioner
Denne artikel indeholder en række hjælpefunktioner, der ofte bruges i M-udvidelser. Disse funktioner kan med tiden blive flyttet til det officielle M-bibliotek, men indtil videre kan de kopieres til din filtypenavnsfilkode. Du bør ikke markere nogen af disse funktioner som shared i din udvidelseskode.
Navigationstabeller
Table.ToNavigationTable
Denne funktion tilføjer de metadata af tabeltypen, der er nødvendige for din udvidelse, for at returnere en tabelværdi, som Power Query kan genkende som et navigationstræ. Du kan få flere oplysninger ved at gå til Navigationstabeller.
Table.ToNavigationTable = (
table as table,
keyColumns as list,
nameColumn as text,
dataColumn as text,
itemKindColumn as text,
itemNameColumn as text,
isLeafColumn as text
) as table =>
let
tableType = Value.Type(table),
newTableType = Type.AddTableKey(tableType, keyColumns, true) meta
[
NavigationTable.NameColumn = nameColumn,
NavigationTable.DataColumn = dataColumn,
NavigationTable.ItemKindColumn = itemKindColumn,
Preview.DelayColumn = itemNameColumn,
NavigationTable.IsLeafColumn = isLeafColumn
],
navigationTable = Value.ReplaceType(table, newTableType)
in
navigationTable;
| Parameter | Oplysninger |
|---|---|
| table | Navigationstabellen. |
| keyColumns | Liste over kolonnenavne, der fungerer som den primære nøgle for navigationstabellen. |
| nameColumn | Navnet på den kolonne, der skal bruges som vist navn i navigatoren. |
| dataKolonne | Navnet på den kolonne, der indeholder den tabel eller funktion, der skal vises. |
| itemKindColumn | Navnet på den kolonne, der skal bruges til at bestemme, hvilken type ikon der skal vises. Gyldige værdier for kolonnen er angivet i artiklen om håndtering af navigation. |
| itemNameColumn | Navnet på den kolonne, der skal bruges til at bestemme, hvilken type værktøjstip der skal vises. Gyldige værdier for kolonnen er Table og Function. |
| isLeafColumn | Navnet på den kolonne, der bruges til at bestemme, om dette er en bladnode, eller om noden kan udvides til at indeholde en anden navigationstabel. |
Eksempel på brug:
shared MyExtension.Contents = () =>
let
objects = #table(
{"Name", "Key", "Data", "ItemKind", "ItemName", "IsLeaf"},{
{"Item1", "item1", #table({"Column1"}, {{"Item1"}}), "Table", "Table", true},
{"Item2", "item2", #table({"Column1"}, {{"Item2"}}), "Table", "Table", true},
{"Item3", "item3", FunctionCallThatReturnsATable(), "Table", "Table", true},
{"MyFunction", "myfunction", AnotherFunction.Contents(), "Function", "Function", true}
}),
NavTable = Table.ToNavigationTable(objects, {"Key"}, "Name", "Data", "ItemKind", "ItemName", "IsLeaf")
in
NavTable;
URI-manipulation
Uri.FromParts
Denne funktion opretter en komplet URL-adresse baseret på individuelle felter i posten. Det fungerer som det modsatte af URI.Parts.
Uri.FromParts = (parts) =>
let
port = if (parts[Scheme] = "https" and parts[Port] = 443) or (parts[Scheme] = "http" and parts[Port] = 80) then "" else ":" & Text.From(parts[Port]),
div1 = if Record.FieldCount(parts[Query]) > 0 then "?" else "",
div2 = if Text.Length(parts[Fragment]) > 0 then "#" else "",
uri = Text.Combine({parts[Scheme], "://", parts[Host], port, parts[Path], div1, Uri.BuildQueryString(parts[Query]), div2, parts[Fragment]})
in
uri;
Uri.GetHost
Denne funktion returnerer skemaet, værten og standardporten (for HTTP/HTTPS) for en given URL-adresse. Bliver f.eks https://bing.com/subpath/query?param=1¶m2=hello . til https://bing.com:443.
Dette er især nyttigt i forbindelse med oprettelse ResourcePathaf .
Uri.GetHost = (url) =>
let
parts = Uri.Parts(url),
port = if (parts[Scheme] = "https" and parts[Port] = 443) or (parts[Scheme] = "http" and parts[Port] = 80) then "" else ":" & Text.From(parts[Port])
in
parts[Scheme] & "://" & parts[Host] & port;
ValidateUrlScheme
Denne funktion kontrollerer, om brugeren har angivet en HTTPS URL-adresse, og udløser en fejl, hvis vedkommende ikke gør det. Dette er påkrævet for bruger indtastede URL-adresser til certificerede connectors.
ValidateUrlScheme = (url as text) as text => if (Uri.Parts(url)[Scheme] <> "https") then error "Url scheme must be HTTPS" else url;
Hvis du vil anvende den, skal du blot ombryde din url parameter i din dataadgangsfunktion.
DataAccessFunction = (url as text) as table =>
let
_url = ValidateUrlScheme(url),
source = Web.Contents(_url)
in
source;
Henter data
Value.WaitFor
Denne funktion er nyttig, når du foretager en asynkron HTTP-anmodning, og du skal forespørge serveren, indtil anmodningen er fuldført.
Value.WaitFor = (producer as function, interval as function, optional count as number) as any =>
let
list = List.Generate(
() => {0, null},
(state) => state{0} <> null and (count = null or state{0} < count),
(state) => if state{1} <> null then {null, state{1}} else {1 + state{0}, Function.InvokeAfter(() => producer(state{0}), interval(state{0}))},
(state) => state{1})
in
List.Last(list);
Table.GenerateByPage
Denne funktion bruges, når en API returnerer data i et trinvist/sideinddelt format, hvilket er almindeligt for mange REST API'er. Argumentet getNextPage er en funktion, der bruger en enkelt parameter, som er resultatet af det forrige kald til getNextPageog skal returnere en nullable table.
getNextPage = (lastPage) as nullable table => ...;
getNextPage kaldes gentagne gange, indtil den returnerer null. Funktionen samler alle sider i en enkelt tabel. Når resultatet af det første kald til getNextPage er null, returneres der en tom tabel.
// The getNextPage function takes a single argument and is expected to return a nullable table
Table.GenerateByPage = (getNextPage as function) as table =>
let
listOfPages = List.Generate(
() => getNextPage(null), // get the first page of data
(lastPage) => lastPage <> null, // stop when the function returns null
(lastPage) => getNextPage(lastPage) // pass the previous page to the next function call
),
// concatenate the pages together
tableOfPages = Table.FromList(listOfPages, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), {"Column1"}),
firstRow = tableOfPages{0}?
in
// if we didn't get back any pages of data, return an empty table
// otherwise set the table type based on the columns of the first page
if (firstRow = null) then
Table.FromRows({})
// check for empty first table
else if (Table.IsEmpty(firstRow[Column1])) then
firstRow[Column1]
else
Value.ReplaceType(
Table.ExpandTableColumn(tableOfPages, "Column1", Table.ColumnNames(firstRow[Column1])),
Value.Type(firstRow[Column1])
);
Yderligere bemærkninger:
- Funktionen
getNextPageskal hente den næste side-URL-adresse (eller sidetal eller andre værdier, der bruges til at implementere sideinddelingslogikken). Denne proces udføres normalt ved at føjemetaværdier til siden, før du returnerer den. - Kolonnerne og tabeltypen for den kombinerede tabel (dvs. alle sider samlet) er afledt af den første side med data. Funktionen
getNextPageskal normalisere hver side med data. - Det første kald til modtager
getNextPageen null-parameter. getNextPageskal returnere null, når der ikke er nogen sider tilbage.
Du kan finde et eksempel på brug af denne funktion i GitHub-eksemplet og TripPin-sideopdelingseksemplet.
Github.PagedTable = (url as text) => Table.GenerateByPage((previous) =>
let
// If we have a previous page, get its Next link from metadata on the page.
next = if (previous <> null) then Value.Metadata(previous)[Next] else null,
// If we have a next link, use it, otherwise use the original URL that was passed in.
urlToUse = if (next <> null) then next else url,
// If we have a previous page, but don't have a next link, then we're done paging.
// Otherwise retrieve the next page.
current = if (previous <> null and next = null) then null else Github.Contents(urlToUse),
// If we got data back from the current page, get the link for the next page
link = if (current <> null) then Value.Metadata(current)[Next] else null
in
