One of the inner values of my dynamic field contains "#".
How can I escape the #? (need to escape the "fields.#version")
let Source = datatable (fields: dynamic) [
dynamic({"seq":17300,"#version":"1"})
];
Source | project fields, fields.seq //, fields.#version
Dynamic object accessors
A qualified string (single quote / double quote / triple back-tick) within brackets.
let Source = datatable (fields: dynamic) [
dynamic({"seq":17300,"#version":"1"})
];
Source
| project fields['#version'], fields["#version"], fields[```#version```]
fields_#version
fields_#version1
fields_#version2
1
1
1
Fiddle
This seems to work:
let Source = datatable (fields: dynamic) [
dynamic({"seq":17300,"#version":"1"})
];
Source | project fields, fields.seq , fields.['#version']
Are there any other options?

Good day,
Attempting to check IPAddress from SiginLogs with a datatable. I am able to perform the Scalar function ipv4_is_in_range() with a single value. Ips are changed for privacy
ex:
ipv4_is_in_range(IPAddress, '127.0.0.255/24')
When I try to use a declared datatable it does not recognize the values and returns nothing.
ex:
let srcIPs = datatable (checkIP:string) ['127.0.0.1/24'];
SigninLogs
| union srcIPs
| where ipv4_is_in_range( IPAddress, checkIP)
or
let srcIPs = datatable (checkIP:string) [
'127.0.0.1/24',
'8.8.8.8',
'1.1.1.1/16'
];
SigninLogs
| union srcIPs
| where ipv4_is_in_range( IPAddress, checkIP)
if I replace the 'where' with 'extend' I will get one IP address that does show correctly but will include another IP address that is not within that range.
My question is how do I get the function to recognize the values from srcIPs correctly?
#Michael. I went a head a revisited that document and reattempted. The workspace still shows and error when I hover ipv4_lookup stating it is not defined. YET. It still ran, something I didn't attempt. Now the code looks like.
let IP_Data = datatable(network:string)
[
"127.0.0.1",
"8.8.8.8/24",
"192.168.0.1",
"10.0.240.255/21"
];
SigninLogs
| evaluate ipv4_lookup(IP_Data, IPAddress, network)
| where UserType == "Member"
| project-reorder IPAddress, UserPrincipalName
So this code got me what I was looking for. TY all for your assistance.
Answering my own question with working code for record.
I would like to check in KQL (Kusto Query Language) if a string starts with any prefix that is contained in a list.
Something like:
let MaxAge = ago(30d);
let prefix_list = pack_array(
'Mr',
'Ms',
'Mister',
'Miss'
);
| where Name startswith(prefix_list)
I know this example can be done with startswith("Mr","Ms","Mister","Miss") but this is not escalable.
an inefficient but functional option would be using matches regex - this can work well if the input data set is not too large:
let T = datatable(Name:string)
[
"hello" ,'world', "Mra", "Ms 2", "Miz", 'Missed'
]
;
let prefix_list = pack_array(
'Mr',
'Ms',
'Mister',
'Miss'
);
let prefix_regex = strcat("^(", strcat_array(prefix_list, ")|("), ")");
T
| where Name matches regex prefix_regex
Name
Mra
Ms 2
Missed
This function is not available in the Kusto query language, you are welcome to open a suggestion for it in the user feedback form
I have a problem where I have a list of fields from a table (not static, can be modified by user), and I need to generate a report using these user selected fields. The report can show all the rows, no need for aggregation or filtering.
I thought I could create a report layout then using a filemaker script to populate it but can't seem to find the right commands, can someone let me know how I could achieve this?
I'm using filemaker pro 18 advanced
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Since you want a dynamic report, then I recommend you look up a technique called "Virtual List" for rendering the data.
Here's an example script that iterates over a found set of records and builds the virtual list data in a variable (it doesn't show how to render it though):
# Field names and delimiter
Set Variable [ $delim ; Value: Char(9) // tab character ]
# Set these dynamically with a script parameter
Set Variable [ $fields ; Value: List ( "Contacts::nameFirst" ; "Contacts::nameCompany" ; "Contacts::nameLast" ) ]
Set Variable [ $fieldCount ; Value: ValueCount ( $fields ) ]
Go to Layout [ “Contacts” (Contacts) ; Animation: None ]
Show All Records
Go to Record/Request/Page [ First ]
# Loop over all the records and append a row in the $data variable for each
Set Variable [ $data ; Value: "" ]
Loop
# Get the delimited field values
Set Variable [ $i ; Value: 0 ]
Set Variable [ $row ; Value: "" ]
Loop
Exit Loop If [ Let ( $i = $i + 1 ; $i > $fieldCount ) ]
Set Variable [ $value ; Value: GetField ( GetValue ( $fields ; $i ) ) ]
Insert Calculated Result [ Target: $row ; If ( $i > 1 ; $delim ) & $value ]
End Loop
enter code here
# Append the new row of data to the list variable
Insert Calculated Result [ Target: $data ; If ( Get ( RecordNumber ) > 1 ; ¶ ) & $row ]
Go to Record/Request/Page [ Next ; Exit after last: On ]
End Loop
# Save to a global variable to show in a virtual list layout
Set Variable [ $$DATA ; Value: $data ]
Exit Script [ Text Result: ]
please note this code is just one of many possible formats the virtual list can take. A lot of people, myself included, prefer to use JSON objects or arrays for each row of the list since it automatically handle field values with carriage returns. This is sort of the old-fashioned way. Kevin Frank at FileMaker Hacks has some good recent articles about virtual list techniques if you're interested.
PS, another great technique for rendering table data dynamically is to collect the data in a JSON array and render it in a webviewer with https://datatables.net/
I did something like this for the oncology department of UM om 1980 or so using 4th Dimension and a new plug in that used one line of code to create a web browser with all the functions that a doctor might want. The data was placed inside a variable as it was sent/returned and 4D could use a variable in the report to display the data.
FileMaker does not have this ability built in as 4D did so you will have to do it yourself.JSON is the most likely tool that I am familiar with. YouTube has many videos on JSON.
You have two classes of variables for your report: Column headers and column data to display. Fortunately Filemaker is quite good and very easy to design. Just make a typical report and replace the text/header or field names with a JSON variable or any. $ColumnName = JSON variable.
Create a JSON calculated field in the database. In that calculated field set the JSON variable and this can be used for all of the columns.
This is the essence of the idea with the final result to be determined by you. What you are asking for is not easy and would require serious work by a skilled JSON scripter.
I have been navigating map structures fine for a long time now. Yet, for some reason, the root of this problem escapes me. I've tried bracket notation as well, no luck.
Why doesn't the final output (null) return "[serverinfo:[listenPort:19001]]"
If I replace the two instances of ' "$instanceName" ' with simply ' services ', it works.
String instanceName = "Services"
Map serverNode = [
instances:[
"$instanceName":[
serverinfo:[
listenPort:19001
]
]
]
]
println "$instanceName"
println serverNode.instances
println serverNode.instances."$instanceName"
//output
Services
[Services:[serverinfo:[listenPort:19001]]]
null
The type of "$instanceName" is GStringImpl, not String. It's a common mistake (and hard to find!)
def serverNode = [
instances:[
("$instanceName" as String):[
serverinfo:[
listenPort:19001
]
]
]
]
as stated by #tim_yates in comment, if your interpolated string is as simple as in this example (ie ,"${property}"), then you can use the (property) syntax : Groovy put the value of the property as a key, not the word "property"
I need to isolate the file extension from a path in SQLite. I've read the post here (SQLite: How to select part of string?), which gets 99% there.
However, the solution:
select distinct replace(column_name, rtrim(column_name, replace(column_name, '.', '' ) ), '') from table_name;
fails if a file has no extension (i.e. no '.' in the filename), for which it should return an empty string. Is there any way to trap this please?
Note the filename in this context is the bit after the final '\'- it shouldn't be searching for'.'s in the full path, as it does at moment too.
I think it should be possible to do it using further nested rtrims and replaces.
Thanks. Yes, you can do it like this:
1) create a scalar function called "extension" in QtScript in SQLiteStudio
2) The code is as follows:
if ( arguments[0].substring(arguments[0].lastIndexOf('\u005C')).lastIndexOf('.') == -1 )
{
return ("");
}
else
{
return arguments[0].substring(arguments[0].lastIndexOf('.'));
}
3) Then, in the SQL query editor you can use
select distinct extension(PATH) from DATA
... to itemise the distinct file extensions from the column called PATH in the table called DATA.
Note that the PATH field must contain a backslash ('\') in this implementation - i.e. it must be a full path.
