Executing database queries as a plugin

[Jacksen K]

As a command or plugin is there a way in which I can directly run commands on the server or do I have to connect as a "remote client" and login?

Hi,

Can you be a bit more specific? There are a couple of ways to do things on the server directly. What is it you'd like to get done?

Normal database type commands, e.g. select, update, editing documents etc

There are two possibilities I know of - Java hooks and custom functions (with triggers). Unfortunately, for the power and/ or flexibility these features provide, the documentation leaves a bit to be desired.

As a plugin/command though (extending the server in Java) do I have to connect as a remote client?

[scott molinari]

Hmmm...I think I misunderstood your question. Do you mean using ODB within another Java application? Yes, you can use it in what is called embedded mode.

Is that what you are asking?

Sweet, that works too! Thank you!
