Hi Fabio
That would not work at the generic level as it would require a 2-way
relationship (cartridge - printer for ex) which is not always realistic
to expect,

Thanks for the feedback guys! Let me just expand a bit on the motivation
behind my previous example....
Let's say I'm managing hundreds of printers each of which have a
relationship to a cartridge (of which there are many hundreds) with a
colour attribute. I want to find the printers with a blue cartridge.
So I first make a search for a list of "blue" cartridges. Then I
search for
the printers that have a relationship with these cartridges. The
problem is
on the second search I end up with a ginormous search expression
"relationships%3D%3D7db4512-ad25-40e8-bc78-63ad25c0e894%2C%24relationships%3D%3D16dc6acd-6.....".
" that could be an invalid URL.
Is there a better way of handling it than this?
Hi Colm, maybe you can search all the cartridges blue with a
relationship with a printer.
The result will be a list of cartridges. Each item will be reported
including a specific field relationships (if I well remember) about all
the printers related to the item.
In this case, you will have all the info you need retrieved by a single
short query. Don't you agree?
BR,
F.
Colm.

Hi Francesco
One thing I can point to is this code:
https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/rt/rs/extensions/s
earch/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/jaxrs/ext/search/jpa/Abst
ractJPATypedQueryVisitor.java#L167
There, in the end,
https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/rt/rs/extensions/s
earch/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/jaxrs/ext/search/jpa/Abst
ractJPATypedQueryVisitor.java#L181
it branches to either doBuildPredicate() (==> similar to Syncope
SearchCondVisitor.visitPrimitive) or doBuildCollectionPredicate()
When we have "a.b.c" then if 'b' is a collection then it would
branch to
doBuildCollectionPredicate.
It was awhile back since I played with the typed JPA2 code, Native
one is
a mystery...
I agree supporting such queries is not easy...but supporting then can
offer an ultimate search experience :-)
Cheers, Sergey

Hi Francesco
Thanks for the explanation.
I see why the example I pointed to won't be applicable to Syncope.
In that case when the linked beans are available, CXF
AbstractSearchParser will prepare a bean tree which would be
initialized
with the values from the expression like "a.b.c" and the OOB
visitor like
JPA2 one takes care of dealing with these linked beans.
In the SearchBean case it is up to the custom visitor whether to react
to the '.'s or not where a '.' indicates that for ex 'a' needs to
have 'b'
with a property 'c'.
Do you reckon Syncope custom visitors can be updated to support such
queries ? Not sure about ElasticSearch but for SQL it should
probably be
possible...
Maybe in principle yes, it could be possible to support such queries
but:
1. implementation would be rather complex as the query logic is already
quite involved
2. we haven't had may requests for such complex queries so far
...anyway, as you know, volunteers are welcome :-)

Hi
I think something similar works for a CXF FIQL JPA2 visitor, for
example:
https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/rt/rs/extensions/s
earch/src/test/java/org/apache/cxf/jaxrs/ext/search/jpa/JPAT
ypedQueryVisitorFiqlTest.java#L65
(find the books which have been revied done by Ted)
Hi Sergey,
that would work if we had straight beans as in the linked sample.
Syncope data model is instead much more involved as new schema for
attributes can be defined at runtime: this is the reason why we have
SearchCondVisitor [1] translating FIQL into our internal search
conditions,
which serve as input to one of available implementations of
AnySearchDAO
like as the default one based on SQL views [2] and another relying on
Elasticsearch-based [3].
Regards.

Thanks Francesco! On a related note, let's say I have some
AnyObjects
(Printer) with a relationship to other AnyObjects (Cartridge).
Now I
want
to search for a Printer which has a relationship with a Cartridge
with a
"colour" attribute of "blue". Is there a way to do this via a FIQL
expression?
No, you cannot express such condition ATM; you could do for
example:
SyncopeClient.getAnyObjectSearchConditionBuilder("PRINTER").
inRelationships("ce75249b-76e4-44b6-88ae-0841846faceb").
and().is("colour").equalTo("blue").query();
which translates to FIQL
$type==PRINTER;$relationships==ce75249b-76e4-44b6-88ae-0841846faceb;colour==blue
but this would rather search for blue printers having a
relationship
with an any object with key 'ce75249b-76e4-44b6-88ae-0841846faceb'.
or alternatively
SyncopeClient.getAnyObjectSearchConditionBuilder("PRINTER").
inRelationshipTypes("WITH_CARTDRIGE").
and().is("color").equalTo("blue").query();
which translates to FIQL
$type==PRINTER;$relationshipTypes==WITH_CARTDRIGE;color==blue
but this would rather search for blue printers having a
relationship
on type WITH_CARTDRIGE.
Regards.

Hi all,
How can I retrieve a list of AnyObjects? The following returns a
400:
curl -I -X GET -u admin:password
http://localhost:9080/syncope/rest/anyObjects
You must at least provide the AnyType, e.g.
http://localhost:9080/syncope/rest/anyObjects;fiql=%24type%3
D%3DPRINTER
Regards.
