Document

A document enables the object model to have a persisted state. Every document can contain different Common Data Model object definitions, such as entities, data partitions, or attributes.

public class CdmDocumentDefinition extends CdmObjectSimple, CdmContainerDefinition

Constructors

Name	Description
CdmDocumentDefinition(CdmCorpusContext, string) ctx: The corpus context. name: The document's name.	Initializes a new instance of the CdmDocumentDefinition class.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
Name	string	The document's name.
Schema	string	The schema link that points to a validating schema.
JsonSchemaSemanticVersion	string	Identifies the version of the object model that supports this file shape.
DocumentVersion	string	Identifies the version of the document.
Definitions	CdmDefinitionCollection	The document's definitions - can be any object that implements CdmObjectDefinition.
Imports	CdmImportCollection	The collection of corpus paths/monikers that denote the Common Data Model objects that need to be imported in order to use the document.
AtCorpusPath	string	The corpus path of the object declaration.

Methods

Name	Description	Return Type
RefreshAsync(ResolveOptions) resOpt: The resolve options.	Updates the indexes in the document. The method is supposed to be called after modifying the objects in the document.	Task<bool>
SaveAsAsync(string, bool, CopyOptions) newName: The new document's name. saveReferenced [optional]: A boolean that denotes whether we want to save all the references files (schema definition documents that are linked from the source document that have been modified) as well since the manifest can reference different entity documents. The default value is false. options [optional]: The copy options.	Saves the document back through the adapter in the requested format. The format is specified via the document name and extension based on the following conventions: 'model.json' for the backwards-compatible model, '.manifest.cdm.json' for manifest, '.folio.cdm.json' for folio, and '.cdm.json' for Common Data Model object definitions. Returns false on any failure. Note: For manifest and folio, there has to be a name in front of the extension (for example, 'example.manifest.cdm.json' or 'example.folio.cdm.json'), as saving with just the extension ('manifest.cdm.json') will result in an empty JSON file. For model.json, however, it needs to be saved without a name in front, as just 'model.json' (not 'example.model.json').	Task<bool>
