How to add property conditionEditor in the TDI dataset

[Yangyang Feng]

Hi,

We have a request from customers that they want to add "conditionEditor" : "shown" into the return of TDI datasets, could you guide us on how to achieve that in TDI?
For example, query with "/ibm/tivoli/rest/providers/TDI/datasources/DASH_ITMCollector/datasets/DS_KS3_SPACE?optimize=true", the return is as following:
{
"datasetImplementation": "simple",
"datasourceId": "DASH_ITMCollector",
"eventsEnabled": false,
"id": "DS_KS3_SPACE",
"itemCount": 0,
"label": "KS3_SPACE",
"linkCount": 0,
"providerId": "TDI",
"relationshipCount": 0,
"remote": false,
"remoteHost": "smud90",
"status": [
{......}
],
"type": "",
"viewType": "table"
}

We need to add "conditionEditor" : "shown" in the return of the query, it could be like:
{
"conditionEditor" : "shown",
"datasetImplementation": "simple",
"datasourceId": "DASH_ITMCollector",
"eventsEnabled": false,
"id": "DS_KS3_SPACE",
"itemCount": 0,
"label": "KS3_SPACE",
"linkCount": 0,
"providerId": "TDI",
"relationshipCount": 0,
"remote": false,
"remoteHost": "smud90",
"status": [
{......}
],
"type": "",
"viewType": "table"
}

Thanks

If this is a json payload then it's pretty simple. First you turn the json into a js object:

jsobj = fromJson(jsonStringValueInYourPost);

To create a property named 'conditionEditor' you only have to assign it a value:

jsobj.conditionEditor = "shown";

Then to convert back to a json string:

// f.ex. write it to the log
task.logmsg("JSON:\n" + jsobj.toJson());

Hope this helps!
