Rows

1. List Rows of a Table

To list all (or some of) rows we simply call /tables/<table-name>/rows/ endpoint with GET method.

curl 'localhost:8000/api/tables/Album/rows/'

Response

{
  "data": [
    {
      "AlbumId": 1,
      "Title": "For Those About To Rock We Salute You",
      "ArtistId": 1
    },
    { "AlbumId": 2, "Title": "Balls to the Wall", "ArtistId": 2 }
    // ...
  ],
  "total": 347,
  "next": "/tables/Album?page=2",
  "previous": null
}

Query Params

• _page e.g. ?_page=2, to get the second page of results.
• _limit e.g. ?_limit=20, to get 20 results per page.
• _search e.g. ?_search=rock, to search across all fields.
• _ordering e.g. ?_ordering=-Title, to order rows by title descending, or without - to sort ascending, e.g. ?_ordering=Title
• _schema e.g. ?_schema=Title,ArtistId, to get only the Title and ArtistId columns.
• _extend e.g. ?_extend=ArtistId, to get the Artist object related to the Album.
• _filters e.g. ?_filters=ArtistId:[1,2,3],Title:Rock, to get only the rows where the ArtistId can be 1,2 or 3 and the Title is Rock. NOTE: If you want to use comparison operators in the filter, you can use these operators after the field: __eq, __neq, __lt, __gt, __lte, __gte, __null, __notnull . For example, you can use /invoices/rows?_filters=InvoiceId__neq:1,Total__gte:5,BillingPostalCode__notnull
