Create or update database from array items

Hi Mark,

You need:

1 to have Array object on the server script side.
To see what actually you have in request parameter use "console.log()" and "typeOf()" functions.

2 then you can iterate this Array with following simple code:

pre

//You need to use your request array here
var requestArray = [1, 2, 3];
for(var i = 0; i < requestArray&#46;length; i++){

Code: Select all

console&#46;log("item[" + i + "] = " + requestArray[i]) 

};

/pre

Regards

Create or update database from array items

Hi Mark,

Thanks for this videos.

As i can see you don't pass all needed items in singe request(to server code).

  1. You need to collect all items in single js array, convert to JSON put them altogether to single request parameter.

  2. Comment all code(use /* here is a comment */)(to do nothing) in your server code and just put this request parameter(1st step) to console.

  3. Test app - and see in server code "Trace" tab. You need to see there all your items in JSON format when you click on "Add" button.

    It's first requirement.

When you do it - please show us screen shot from trace tab where we can see all these items.

Thanks.

Create or update database from array items

Hi Yurii
Ok please see the following short videos

video 1 http://screencast.com/t/ndLnzrf6z

video 2 http://screencast.com/t/jGR3rz59c

I have completed as instructed so I now need your help to

In server code - iterate through all received items
Inside each iteration need to perform:
3.1. make query to DB collection to get all items with query criteria data from current item(3rd step).
3.2. if you received 0 items in response of query you need to create object.
3.3. if you received 1 item or more in response of query - you need to update object.

Thanks
