JSON stored as text column

JSON is textual format, so it is stored in standard NVARCHAR columns. NoSQL collection is equivalent to two column key value table: CREATE TABLE ProductCollection ( Id int identity primary key, Data nvarchar(max) ) Use nvarchar(max) as you are not sure what would be the size of your JSON ...

Ensure that JSON is properly formatted using ISJSON

Since JSON is stored textual column, you might want to ensure that it is properly formatted. You can add CHECK constraint on JSON column that checks is text properly formatted JSON: CREATE TABLE ProductCollection ( Id int identity primary key, Data nvarchar(max) CONSTRAINT [Data shoul...

Expose values from JSON text as computed columns

You can expose values from JSON column as computed columns: CREATE TABLE ProductCollection ( Id int identity primary key, Data nvarchar(max), Price AS JSON_VALUE(Data, '$.Price'), Color JSON_VALUE(Data, '$.Color') PERSISTED ) If you add PERSISTED computed column, value from JSON tex...

Adding index on JSON path

Queries that filter or sort data by some value in JSON column usually use full table scan. SELECT * FROM ProductCollection WHERE JSON_VALUE(Data, '$.Color') = 'Black' To optimize these kind of queries, you can add non-persisted computed column that exposes JSON expression used in filter or sort...

JSON stored in in-memory tables

If you can use memory-optimized tables, you can store JSON as text: CREATE TABLE ProductCollection ( Id int identity primary key nonclustered, Data nvarchar(max) ) WITH (MEMORY_OPTIMIZED=ON) Advantages of JSON in in-memory: JSON data is always in memory so there is no disk access Ther...

In/Out Parameters

PL/SQL uses IN, OUT, IN OUT keywords to define what can happen to a passed parameter. IN specifies that the parameter is read only and the value cannot be changed by the procedure. OUT specifies the parameter is write only and a procedure can assign a value to it, but not reference the value. IN ...

Get key:value pairs from JSON text

OPENJSON function parse JSON text and returns all key:value pairs at the first level of JSON: declare @json NVARCHAR(4000) = N'{"Name":"Joe","age":27,"skills":["C#","SQL"]}'; SELECT * FROM OPENJSON(@json); keyvaluetypeNameJoe1age272ski...

Transform JSON array into set of rows

OPENJSON function parses collection of JSON objects and returns values from JSON text as set of rows. declare @json nvarchar(4000) = N'[ {"Number":"SO43659","Date":"2011-05-31T00:00:00","Customer": "MSFT","Price":59.99,"Q...

Transform nested JSON fields into set of rows

OPENJSON function parses collection of JSON objects and returns values from JSON text as set of rows. If the values in input object are nested, additional mapping parameter can be specified in each column in WITH clause: declare @json nvarchar(4000) = N'[ {"data":{"num":&quot...

Extracting inner JSON sub-objects

OPENJSON can extract fragments of JSON objects inside the JSON text. In the column definition that references JSON sub-object set the type nvarchar(max) and AS JSON option: declare @json nvarchar(4000) = N'[ {"Number":"SO43659","Date":"2011-05-31T00:00:00"...

Working with nested JSON sub-arrays

JSON may have complex structure with inner arrays. In this example, we have array of orders with nested sub array of OrderItems. declare @json nvarchar(4000) = N'[ {"Number":"SO43659","Date":"2011-05-31T00:00:00", "Items":[{"Price"...

Types and classifications of Trigger

In SQL Server, there are two categories of triggers: DDL Triggers and DML Triggers. DDL Triggers are fired in response to Data Definition Language (DDL) events. These events primarily correspond to Transact-SQL statements that start with the keywords CREATE, ALTER and DROP. DML Triggers are fired ...

TRY CONVERT

SQL Server 2012 It converts value to specified data type and if conversion fails it returns NULL. For example, source value in string format and we need date/integer format. Then this will help us to achieve the same. Syntax: TRY_CONVERT ( data_type [ ( length ) ], expression [, style ] ) TRY_CON...

Convert

When you convert expressions from one type to another, in many cases there will be a need within a stored procedure or other routine to convert data from a datetime type to a varchar type. The Convert function is used for such things. The CONVERT() function can be used to display date/time data in v...

RESTful API Routes for Multi Module Application

// Define new router group $api = new \Phalcon\Mvc\Router\Group([ 'module' => 'api', ]); $api->setPrefix('/api/v1'); // API routes (Maps to Cotnroller::Action) $api->addGet('/users', 'Users::index'); $api->addGet('/users/search/{query}', 'Users::search'); $api->addGet('/...

Dynamically set module routes

$router = new \Phalcon\Mvc\Router(false); $router->removeExtraSlashes(true); $request = new \Phalcon\Http\Request(); $action = strtolower($request->getMethod()); // get, post, etc. $modules = ['calendar', 'main', 'user']; // names of the modules you create // you can define other static...

Stacking Context

In this example every positioned element creates its own stacking context, because of their positioning and z-index values. The hierarchy of stacking contexts is organized as follows: Root DIV #1 DIV #2 DIV #3 DIV #4 DIV #5 DIV #6 It is important to note that DIV #4, DIV #5 and D...
