Hi all, former developer would appreciate any suggestions on a good way to go about connecting to an external db that offers a REST service to bring back the data to notes. I have not had luck searching for external REST connections that are not xml.
specifically my data returned from the URL query looks like this:
{
"displayFieldName": "name",
"fieldAliases": {
"name": "name"
},
"fields": [
{
"name": "name",
"type": "esriFieldTypeString",
"alias": "name",
"length": 200
}
],
"features": [
{
"attributes": {
"name": "SI5006_COLLIE"
}
},
{
"attributes": {
"name": "SI5007_DUMBLEYUNG"
}
},
etc...
Would like to use xpages something like what Brad did on his blog at xcellerant (but am open to anything that will work of course!)
<xe:restService id="restJsonService" pathInfo="gridData">
<xe:this.service>
<xe:viewJsonService defaultColumns="true" viewName="ByName-First" var="dataRow">
</xe:viewJsonService>
</xe:this.service>
</xe:restService>
Any suggestions on connecting to an external db? I got the xpages ext lib book, but couldn't find an example of an external connection. Thanks for reading!
