CDS-TS-Repository - BaseRepository



The goal of BaseRepository is to significantly reduce the boilerplate code required to implement data access layers for persistance entities by providing out of the box actions on the database.
Table of Contents
Installation
Install CDS-TS-Repository
npm install @dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository
Important
CDS-TS-Repository uses @sap/cds, @sap/cds-dk version 10 and stays compatible with version 9 — the @sap/cds peer dependency is ^9 || ^10. Node.js >= 22 is required.
If you're using @sap/cds, @sap/cds-dk version 8 then install npm install @dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository@5.
Generate CDS Typed entities
Execute the following commands :
cds add typer
npm install
Tip
If above option is being used, this means whenever we change a .CDS file the changes will be reflected in the generated @cds-models folder.
Important

Caution
Import always the generated entities from the service folders and not from the index.ts
Tip
By default cds-typer will create in your package.json a quick path alias like :
"imports": {
"#cds-models/*": "./@cds-models/*/index.js"
}
Use import helper to import entities from #cds-models like example :
import { Book } from '#cds-models/CatalogService';

Usage
Option 1 : Using BaseRepository with Standard SAP CAP CDS-TS
This guide explains how to use the BaseRepository with the Standard SAP CDS-TS, allowing you to work without the need for the CDS-TS-Dispatcher.
Step 1 : Create MyRepository class
Start by creating MyRepository class, which will extend the BaseRepository<T> to handle operations for your entity.
Example
import { BaseRepository, Request } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository'
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE'
// Imported to have visibility over INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE ...
import { Service } from '@sap/cds';
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepository<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity)
}
public aMethod(req: Request<MyEntity>) {
const result1 = await this.create(...)
const result2 = await this.createMany(...)
const result5 = await this.getAll()
const result6 = await this.paginate(...)
const result7 = await this.find(...)
const result8 = await this.findOne(...)
const result9 = await this.delete(...)
const result10 = await this.update(...)
const result11 = await this.updateLocaleTexts(...)
const result12 = await this.exists(...)
const result13 = await this.count()
}
public anotherMethod(results: MyEntity[], req: Request<MyEntity>) {
// ...
}
// Enhance with custom QL methods ...
public customQLMethod() {
const customQL = SELECT(MyEntity).columns(...).where(...)
// ...
}
}
Step 2 : Integrate MyRepository class
Now that you have MyRepository class, you can integrate it into your implementation.
- Create a new private field:
private myRepository: MyRepository = new MyRepository();
- Use the handler on the
callback of the events :
this.before('READ', MyEntity, (req) => this.myRepository.aMethod(req));
this.after('READ', MyEntity, (results, req) => this.myRepository.anotherMethod(results, req));
Example
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MainService extends cds.ApplicationService {
private myRepository: MyRepository = new MyRepository();
init() {
this.before('READ', MyEntity, (req) => this.myRepository.aMethod(req));
this.after('READ', MyEntity, (results, req) => this.myRepository.anotherMethod(results, req));
return super.init();
}
}
Note
MyEntity was generated using CDS-Typer and imported in the the class.

Option 2 : Using BaseRepository with CDS-TS-Dispatcher
This guide explains how to use the BaseRepository with the CDS-TS-Dispatcher.
Step 1 : Create MyRepository class
Start by creating a MyRepository class, which will extend the BaseRepository<T> to handle operations for your entity.
- Create a new class
MyRepository:
export class MyRepository {}
- Add
@Repository decorator :
@Repository()
export class MyRepository {}
- Extend
MyRepository class to inherit the BaseRepository methods
@Repository()
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepository<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity); // CDS-Typer entity
}
}
Example
import { BaseRepository } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository'
import { Repository, Service } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-dispatcher'
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE'
@Repository()
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepository<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity) // CDS-Typer entity
}
aMethod() {
const result1 = await this.create(...)
const result2 = await this.createMany(...)
const result5 = await this.getAll()
const result6 = await this.paginate(...)
const result7 = await this.find(...)
const result8 = await this.findOne(...)
const result9 = await this.delete(...)
const result10 = await this.update(...)
const result11 = await this.updateLocaleTexts(...)
const result12 = await this.exists(...)
const result13 = await this.count()
}
// Enhance with custom QL methods ...
customQLMethod() {
const customQL = SELECT(MyEntity).columns(...).where(...)
// ...
}
}
Step 2 : Inject MyRepository class
Now MyRepository class can be injected in another class using @Inject decorator.
Example
@EntityHandler(Book)
class MyEntityHandler {
@Inject(MyRepository) private readonly myRepository: MyRepository;
...
}
Note
MyEntity was generated using CDS-Typer and imported in the the class.

Drafts : BaseRepositoryDraft
The BaseRepositoryDraft class extends BaseRepository by providing support for draft-enabled entities.
The BaseRepositoryDraft repository provides a clear separation of methods for working with active entities and draft instances.
Use BaseRepository methods when dealing with active entity instances.
update
delete
create
createMany
...
Use BaseRepositoryDraft methods when working with draft entity instances.
updateDraft
deleteDraft
findOneDraft
findDrafts
...
(back to top)
Usage
Example 1: Integrate BaseRepository & BaseRepositoryDraft using Mixin
import { BaseRepository, BaseRepositoryDraft, Mixin } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MyRepository extends Mixin(BaseRepository<MyEntity>, BaseRepositoryDraft<MyEntity>) {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity);
}
// ... define custom CDS-QL actions if BaseRepository ones are not satisfying your needs !
}
Note
MyRepository class will inherit all methods for active entities and drafts.
Active entity methods: .create, createMany, update, exists, delete, deleteMany ...
Draft entity methods: .updateDraft, existsDraft, deleteDraft, deleteManyDrafts ...
Example 2: Use only BaseRepositoryDraft methods
import { BaseRepository, BaseRepositoryDraft, Mixin } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepositoryDraft<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity);
}
// ... define custom CDS-QL actions if BaseRepository ones are not satisfying your needs !
}
Important
Entity MyEntity must be annotated with @odata.draft.enabled: true to use BaseRepositoryDraft methods.

getExpand
Use getExpand to specify which columns you want to expand from the table.
Overloads
| Type | Method | Parameters | Description |
|---|
Single expand | getExpand(...associations : Columns<T>[]): FindBuilder<T> | ...associations: Array<string> | Use Single expand when you want to expand only certain associations from the root level of the entity. -------- An array of strings representing the columns to expand, this will expand only first level of associations. |
Deep expand | getExpand(associations : Expand<T>): FindBuilder<T> | associations: object | Use Deep expand option when you want to deep expand certain associations. -------- An object representing the columns to expand.
Value:
- {} - If empty object is used as a value for an association, the empty object will perform a full expand of the association.
Properties:
- select? : Array<string> [optional]: Fetch only the mentioned columns. - expand? : object [optional]: Expand nested associations.
|
Auto expand | getExpand(options : { levels : number }): FindBuilder<T> | levels: number | Use Auto expand to deep expand all associations within your entity. -------- You can control how deeply the method should expand associations by providing the levels. |
Example 1 : Auto expand
Root - Entity
child - (association) - expanded
child - (composition) - expanded
- ...
child - (association) - expanded
child (association) - expanded
- ...
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand({ levels: 2 })
.execute();
Example 2 : Deep expand
// expand 'author', 'genre' and 'reviews' associations
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand({
// expand 'author'
author: {},
// expand 'genre', having only 'ID' and 'name'
genre: {
select: ['ID', 'name'],
},
// expand 'reviews', having only 'ID', 'book_ID' fields and 'reviewer' association
reviews: {
select: ['ID', 'book_ID'],
// expand 'reviewer', having only the 'ID'
expand: {
reviewer: {
select: ['ID'],
},
},
},
})
.execute();
Example 3 : Deep expand stored in a variable & using columns()
import { Expand } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
// expand 'author', and 'reviews' associations
const associations: Expand<MyEntity> = {
// expand 'author'
author: {},
// expand 'reviews' having all fields + expand reviewer association having only 'ID'
reviews: {
// expand 'reviewer', having only the 'ID'
expand: {
reviewer: {
select: ['ID'],
},
},
},
};
const results = await this.builder()
.find() // get all items
.columns('author', 'reviews')
.getExpand(associations)
.execute();
Note
If columns is used with getExpand the columns method will have impact on the final typing.
Example 4 : Simple expand (root only)
// expand only 'orders' and 'reviews' associations
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand('orders', 'reviews')
// or
//.getExpand(['orders', 'reviews'])
.execute();
(back to top)
forUpdate
Exclusively locks the selected rows for subsequent updates in the current transaction, thereby preventing concurrent updates by other parallel transactions.
Parameters
options (object): An object containing the following properties:
wait? (number) [optional]: an integer specifying the timeout after which to fail with an error in case a lock couldn't be obtained.
Example
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand('orders', 'reviews')
.forUpdate({ wait: 5 })
//or
//.forUpdate()
.execute();
Tip
More info can be found on the official SAP CAP forUpdate documentation.
forShareLock
Locks the selected rows in the current transaction, thereby preventing concurrent updates by other parallel transactions, until the transaction is committed or rolled back. Using a shared lock allows all transactions to read the locked record.
If a queried record is already exclusively locked by another transaction, the .forShareLock() method waits for the lock to be released.
Example
// Expand only 'orders' association

hints
Passes hints to the database query optimizer that can influence the execution plan. The hints can be passed as individual arguments or as an array.
The SQL Optimizer usually determines the access path (for example, index search versus table scan) on the basis of the costs (Cost-Based Optimizer). You can override the SQL Optimizer choice by explicitly specifying hints in the query that enforces a certain access path.
Parameters
...hints (string[]): Query optimizer hings
Example
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.hints('IGNORE_PLAN_CACHE', 'MAX_CONCURRENCY(1)')
.execute();
Important
This works only for HANA DB.
Tip

execute
Finally, to execute the constructed query and retrieve the results as an array of objects, use the execute method. It returns a promise that resolves to the constructed query result.
Return
Promise<T[] | undefined>: This method returns a Promise of T[] or undefined if nothing was found.
Example 1
const results = await this.builder()
.find({
name: 'A company name',
})
.execute();
Example 2
const results = await this.builder()
.find({ name: 'A company name' })
.orderAsc(['name'])
.paginate({ limit: 5 })
.getExpand('orders')
.execute();
Note
MyEntity was generated using CDS-Typer and imported in the the class.
(back to top)
executeAndCount
Executes the query and returns the results together with the total number of rows matching it.
Return
Promise<{ results: T[]; count: number }>: A promise that resolves to the query results and the total count.
Example
const { results, count } = await this.builder()
.find({
currency_code: 'GBP',
})
.paginate({ limit: 10 })
.executeAndCount();
// results : the first 10 'GBP' items, count : all 'GBP' items
Note
The count ignores the pagination : with paginate() it is the total of the unpaginated query, with groupBy() the number of groups and with distinct the number of distinct rows.
Important
Currently not supported on External services.
(back to top)
forEach
Executes the query and calls the callback for every row, without materializing the whole result set in memory. Ideal for processing large tables.
Parameters
callback ((row: T) => unknown | Promise<unknown>) : The function called for every row of the result set, async callbacks are awaited before forEach resolves.
Return
Promise<void>: A promise that resolves once every row was processed.
Example
await this.builder()
.find({
currency_code: 'GBP',
})
.orderAsc('ID')
.forEach(async (item) => {
await this.archive(item);
});
Note
Runs inside a managed transaction, nesting it in an ambient transaction is safe.
Important
Currently not supported on External services.
(back to top)
pipeline
Executes the query and pipes the serialized results into the given writable stream, without materializing the whole result set in memory.
Parameters
destination (Writable) : The writable stream the serialized results are piped into.
Return
Promise<void>: A promise that resolves once every row was written.
Example
await this.builder().find().orderAsc('ID').pipeline(req.http!.res);
Note
The written bytes are the JSON array of the results (E.g. [{"ID":201}, ...]) and not row objects, which makes it a direct fit for an HTTP response. Use forEach() to work on rows. Runs inside a managed transaction, nesting it in an ambient transaction is safe.
Important
Currently not supported on External services.
(back to top)
stream
Executes the query and returns a readable stream of the serialized results, without materializing the whole result set in memory.
Return
Readable: A readable stream emitting the serialized results, query errors are emitted on it.
Example
const stream = this.builder().find().orderAsc('ID').stream();
// The 'error' listener is mandatory, an unhandled stream error crashes the process
stream.on('error', (error) => req.reject(500, error.message));
stream.pipe(req.http!.res);
Note
The emitted bytes are the JSON array of the results (E.g. [{"ID":201}, ...]) and not row objects, which makes it a direct fit for an HTTP response. Use forEach() to work on rows. Runs inside a managed transaction, nesting it in an ambient transaction is safe.
Important

- To
rename columns in your query results.
- To apply
aggregate functions to specific columns, such as calculating averages, sums etc.
Parameters
Example 1
const oneResult = this.builder()
.findOne({ ID: 201 })
.getExpand(['reviews'])
.columns('reviews', 'bookName', 'authorName')
.columnsFormatter({ column1: 'bookName', column2: 'authorName', aggregate: 'CONCAT', renameAs: 'bookAndAuthorName' })

// above typing will have the following properties
// 'reviews', 'bookName', 'authorName', 'bookAndAuthorName'
Example 2 : Temporal difference between two Date columns
const oneResult = await this.builder()
.findOne({ ID: 101 })
.columnsFormatter({
column1: 'dateOfBirth',
column2: 'dateOfDeath',
aggregate: 'YEARS_BETWEEN',
renameAs: 'yearsLived',
})
.execute();
// above typing will have the following properties

getExpand
Use getExpand to specify which columns you want to expand from the table.
Overloads
| Type | Method | Parameters | Description |
|---|
Single expand | getExpand(...associations : Columns<T>[]): FindBuilder<T> | ...associations: Array<string> | Use Single expand when you want to expand only certain associations from the root level of the entity. -------- An array of strings representing the columns to expand, this will expand only first level of associations. |
Deep expand | getExpand(associations : Expand<T>): FindBuilder<T> | associations: object | Use Deep expand option when you want to deep expand certain associations. -------- An object representing the columns to expand.
Value:
- {} - If empty object is used as a value for an association, the empty object will perform a full expand of the association.
Properties:
- select? : Array<string> [optional]: Fetch only the mentioned columns. - expand? : object [optional]: Expand nested associations.
|
Auto expand | getExpand(options : { levels : number }): FindBuilder<T> | levels: number | Use Auto expand to deep expand all associations within your entity. -------- You can control how deeply the method should expand associations by providing the levels. |
Example 1 : Auto expand
Root - Entity
child - (association) - expanded
child - (composition) - expanded
- ...
child - (association) - expanded
child (association) - expanded
- ...
const oneResult = await this.builder()
.findOne({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand({ levels: 2 })
.execute();
Example 2 : Deep expand
// expand 'author', 'genre' and 'reviews' associations
const oneResult = await this.builder()
.findOne({
name: 'A company name',
})
.getExpand({
// expand 'author'
author: {},
// expand 'genre', having only 'ID' and 'name'

expand: {
reviewer: {
select: ['ID'],
},
},
},
})

// expand 'author', and 'reviews' associations
const associations: Expand<MyEntity> = {
// expand 'author'
author: {},
// expand 'reviews' having all fields + expand reviewer association having only 'ID'
reviews: {
// expand 'reviewer', having only the 'ID'
expand: {
reviewer: {
select: ['ID'],
},
},
},
};
const oneResult = await this.builder()
.findOne({
name: 'A company name',
})
.columns('author', 'reviews')
.getExpand(associations)

forShareLock
Locks the selected rows in the current transaction, thereby preventing concurrent updates by other parallel transactions, until the transaction is committed or rolled back. Using a shared lock allows all transactions to read the locked record.
If a queried record is already exclusively locked by another transaction, the .forShareLock() method waits for the lock to be released.
Example
// Expand only 'orders' association
const oneResult = await this.builder()
.findOne({
name: 'A company name',
})
.forShareLock()
.execute();

CRUD — Draft entity
Methods operating directly on the drafts persistence table of a draft-enabled entity.
createDraft
(method) this.createDraft(entry: Draft<T>) : Promise<InsertResult<Draft<T>>>.
The createDraft method allows you to insert a single draft entry directly into the drafts persistence table.
Parameters
entry (object): An object representing the draft entry to be created. The object should match the structure expected by MyEntity.
Return
Promise<InsertResult<Draft<T>>>: This method returns a Promise that resolves when the insertion operation is completed successfully.
Example
import { BaseRepositoryDraft } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepositoryDraft<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity); // a CDS Typer entity type
}
public async aMethod() {
const createdDraft = await this.createDraft({
name: 'Customer 1',
IsActiveEntity: false,
});
// Further logic with createdDraft
}
}
Note
This is a repository-level insert directly into the drafts table - no DraftAdministrativeData admin row is created and no Fiori draft-lifecycle events fire. DraftAdministrativeData_DraftUUID is auto-generated when omitted, HasActiveEntity defaults to false when omitted.
Important
Throws when an external service is attached via @ExternalService, the drafts table only exists on the primary database.
(back to top)
createManyDrafts
(method) this.createManyDrafts(...entries: DraftEntries<T>[]) : Promise<InsertResult<Draft<T>>>.
The createManyDrafts method allows you to insert multiple draft entries directly into the drafts persistence table.
Parameters
entries (...entries: DraftEntries<T>[]): An array of objects representing the draft entries to be created. Each object should match the structure expected by MyEntity.
Return
Promise<InsertResult<Draft<T>>>: This method returns a Promise that resolves when the insertion operation is completed successfully.
Example
import { BaseRepositoryDraft } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepositoryDraft<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity); // a CDS Typer entity type
}
public async aMethod() {
const createdInstance = await this.createManyDrafts(
{ name: 'Event draft 1', IsActiveEntity: false },
{ name: 'Event draft 2', IsActiveEntity: false },
);
// Further logic with createdInstance
}
}
Note
Same repository-level insert as createDraft, one per entry - no DraftAdministrativeData admin row is created and no Fiori draft-lifecycle events fire. DraftAdministrativeData_DraftUUID is auto-generated per entry when omitted, HasActiveEntity defaults to false when omitted.
Important
Throws when an external service is attached via @ExternalService, the drafts table only exists on the primary database.
(back to top)
updateOrCreateDraft
updateOrCreateDraft(...entries: DraftEntries<T>[]): Promise<boolean>
The updateOrCreateDraft method is a database operation that will update an existing draft row if a specified value already exists in the drafts table, and insert a new draft row if the specified value doesn't already exist, similar to UPSERT from SQL. Has UPSERT PATCH semantics.
Parameters
entries (...entries: DraftEntries<T>[]): An array of objects representing the draft entries to be created or updated. Each object should match the structure expected by MyEntity.
Return
Promise<boolean>: This method returns a Promise of true if the update/create operation is successful, and false otherwise.
Example
import { BaseRepositoryDraft } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { MyEntity } from 'LOCATION_OF_YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE';
export class MyRepository extends BaseRepositoryDraft<MyEntity> {
constructor() {
super(MyEntity); // a CDS Typer entity type
}
public async aMethod() {
const updatedOrCreated = await this.updateOrCreateDraft({
ID: 'a51ab5c8-f366-460f-8f28-0eda2e41d6db',
IsActiveEntity: false,
DraftAdministrativeData_DraftUUID: '2f12d711-b09e-4b57-b035-2cbd0a02ba19',
name: 'a new name',
});
// Further logic with updatedOrCreated
}
}
Note
DraftAdministrativeData_DraftUUID is auto-generated per entry when omitted - pass the existing UUID on an update to preserve its linkage. HasActiveEntity is left untouched when omitted, so an existing draft's value (E.g. true after draftEdit) is not silently reset - on the create path of the upsert it stays NULL unless explicitly provided.
Important
Throws when an external service is attached via @ExternalService, the drafts table only exists on the primary database.

Draft ↔ active twins
All other BaseRepositoryDraft methods delegate to the same implementation as their active counterpart, targeting the drafts persistence table instead of the active one - each is documented by its active twin:

Helpers
Filter
Use Filter to create complex WHERE QUERY filters.
Overloads
| # | Method | Parameters | Description |
|---|
| 1 | new Filter(operator: LogicalOperator, ...filters: Filter<T>) | operator: LogicalOperator ('AND', 'OR')
filters: Array<Filter<T>> | Combines two or more filters with a logical operator. |
| 2 | new Filter<T>(filters: (Filter<T> | LogicalOperator | Filter<T>)[]) | filters: Array<Filter<T> | LogicalOperator> | Creates a multidimensional filter combining nested filters and logical operators ('AND', 'OR') with arrays of other filters. |
Note
T should be a type generated using CDS-Typer.
LogicalOperator values are 'AND' and 'OR', used to combine multiple filters.

Discriminated union
| # | Method | Parameters | Description |
|---|
| 1 | new Filter<T>(options: FilterOptions<T>) | options: - field: keyof T (string) - operator: FilterOperator - value: string, number, boolean, null, string[], number[] | Creates a new filter based on a field, operator, and value.
FilterOperator values: 'EQUALS', 'NOT EQUAL', 'LIKE', 'STARTS_WITH', 'ENDS_WITH', 'LESS THAN', 'LESS THAN OR EQUALS', 'GREATER THAN', 'GREATER THAN OR EQUALS', 'IN', 'NOT IN'. |
| 2 | new Filter<T>(options: FilterOptions<T>) | options: - field: keyof T (string) - operator: FilterOperator - value1: string, number, string[], number[] - value2: string, number, string[], number[] | Creates a new filter for range operations.
FilterOperator values: 'BETWEEN', 'NOT BETWEEN'. |
| 3 | new Filter<T>(options: FilterOptions<T>) | options: - field: keyof T (string) - operator: FilterOperator | Creates a new filter for null checks.
FilterOperator values: 'IS NULL', 'IS NOT NULL'. |
| 4 | new Filter<T>(options: FilterOptions<T>) | options: - field: keyof T (string), an association of T - operator: FilterOperator - filters?: Filter<AssociationTarget> [optional] | Creates a new filter checking whether related rows exist on an association.
FilterOperator values: 'EXISTS', 'NOT EXISTS'.
filters is optional, typed on the association target instead of T, and can itself use 'EXISTS' / 'NOT EXISTS' to nest checks. |
Note
FilterOperator values are predefined operators for filtering.
T should be a type generated using CDS-Typer.
field can also be a one-hop path expression across a to-one association (e.g. 'author.name'), usable with every operator above except 'EXISTS' / 'NOT EXISTS'. Path expressions are fully type-checked and autocompleted by the compiler (typing 'author. suggests 'author.name', 'author.ID', ...).

Decorators
@ExternalService
@ExternalService(service : string)
The @ExternalService decorator is used to connect the BaseRepository / BaseRepositoryDraft to the class as pointing to an external service.
This decorator connects the class to the specified external service via SAP Cloud SDK's cds.connect.to method.
Parameters
service : The name / or the namespace of the external service to connect to.
Example
import { BaseRepository, ExternalService } from '@dxfrontier/cds-ts-repository';
import { A_BusinessPartner } from '../../@cds-models/API_BUSINESS_PARTNER'; // <= This can be different, depending on your location of the @cds-models
@ExternalService('API_BUSINESS_PARTNER')
export class BusinessPartnerRepository extends BaseRepository<A_BusinessPartner> {
constructor() {
super(A_BusinessPartner);
}
// ... define custom CDS-QL actions if BaseRepository ones are not satisfying your needs !
}
Tip
You can find all external services SAP Business Accelerator Hub
Tip
The service was imported using the command : cds import API_BUSINESS_PARTNER.edmx and as a result a new folder external under srv/external/ was created containing schema of the entity.
Tip
The entity A_BusinessPartner was generated automatically by the cds-typer after cds import command was used.
Note
API_BUSINESS_PARTNER is just for showing, it can differ from use case to use case.
