There was a requirement to upload an Excel file directly from the SAC Analytic Application. I would like to share here how I did it.
We will create a custom widget in SAC with library from SheetJS with a little modification. We will also create table, view and stored procedure in HANA. I am using HANA Classic for this purpose.
In a nutshell, we need to create the following modules:
- HANA Table and Calculation View
- HANA Stored Procedure
- HANA XSJS
- SAC Custom Widget
- SAC Analytic Application
HANA Table and View
Create HANA table SACXLSX.hdbtable. This table will store the data from Excel file.
// To define an HDB table with main sql type columns, you can use the following code.
// In the example below a schema should exist.
table.schemaName = "COMMON";
table.tableType = COLUMNSTORE; // ROWSTORE is an alternative value
table.columns = [
{name = "DATE"; sqlType = DATE; comment = "date - YYYYMMDD";},
{name = "COUNTRY_CODE"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 2; comment = "Country Code";},
{name = "COMPANY_CODE"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 10; comment = "Company Code";},
{name = "TYPE"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 30; comment = "Type of Data";},
{name = "VALUE_DATE"; sqlType = DATE; comment = "Value Date - YYYYMMDD";},
{name = "AMOUNT"; sqlType = DOUBLE; comment = "Amount";},
{name = "CURRENCY"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 3; comment = "Currency";},
{name = "COMMENTS"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 100; comment = "Comments";},
{name = "LOCK_FLAG"; sqlType = NVARCHAR; length = 10; comment = "Lock Flag";}
];
Create HANA Calculation View TC_SACXLSX.calculationview. We will later create the model in SAC Analytic Application with this view.
HANA Stored Procedure
Create stored procedure insertData.hdbprocedure to insert data to table SACXLSX.
PROCEDURE "insertData" (
in DATE DATE,
in COUNTRY_CODE NVARCHAR(2),
in COMPANY_CODE NVARCHAR(10),
in TYPE NVARCHAR(30),
in VALUE_DATE DATE,
in AMOUNT DOUBLE,
in CURRENCY NVARCHAR(3),
in COMMENTS NVARCHAR(100),
in LOCK_FLAG NVARCHAR(1)
)
LANGUAGE SQLSCRIPT
SQL SECURITY INVOKER
--DEFAULT SCHEMA <default_schema_name>
--READS SQL DATA AS
AS -- "READS SQL DATA " removed
BEGIN
/*****************************
Write your procedure logic
*****************************/
insert into
"SACXLSX"
values
(
DATE,
COUNTRY_CODE,
COMPANY_CODE,
TYPE,
VALUE_DATE,
AMOUNT,
CURRENCY,
COMMENTS,
LOCK_FLAG
);
END;
HANA XSJS
Create XSJS processData.xsjs. This server-side scripting will process the data from the HTTP Post request from the SAC custom widget and calls the store procedure InsertData to insert the records to table.
try {
var content = $.request.body.asString();
var data = JSON.parse(content);
var result = "";
var DATE;
var COUNTRY_CODE;
var COMPANY_CODE;
var TYPE;
var VALUE_DATE;
var AMOUNT;
var CURRENCY;
var COMMENTS;
var LOCK_FLAG;
var conn = $.hdb.getConnection({ "xssqlcc": "anonuser"});
var procedureCall = conn.loadProcedure("insertData");
for(var i = 0; i <data.length; i++) {
DATE = data[i].DATE;
COUNTRY_CODE = data[i].COUNTRY_CODE;
COMPANY_CODE = data[i].COMPANY_CODE;
TYPE = data[i].TYPE;
VALUE_DATE = data[i].VALUE_DATE;
AMOUNT = data[i].AMOUNT;
CURRENCY = data[i].CURRENCY;
COMMENTS = data[i].COMMENTS;
LOCK_FLAG = data[i].LOCK_FLAG;
procedureCall(DATE, COUNTRY_CODE, COMPANY_CODE, TYPE, VALUE_DATE, AMOUNT, CURRENCY, COMMENTS, LOCK_FLAG);
}
conn.commit();
conn.close();
$.response.headers.set("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
$.response.contentType = "application/json";
$.response.setBody(JSON.stringify(data));
$.response.returnCode = 200;
} catch (err) {
$.response.headers.set("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
$.response.contentType = "application/json";
$.response.setBody(JSON.stringify(err.message));
$.response.returnCode = 200;
}
SAC Custom Widget
In the custom widget, we will load the external library with the modified code from SheetJS, xslx.js.
onCustomWidgetAfterUpdate(changedProperties) {
var that = this;
let xlsxjs = "http://localhost/SAC/sacexcel/xlsx.js";
async function LoadLibs() {
try {
await loadScript(xlsxjs, _shadowRoot);
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
} finally {
loadthis(that, changedProperties);
}
}
LoadLibs();
}
We’ll create an XMLView with SAPUI5 SimpleForm and FileUploader.
Using SheetJS library, we parse the data from the uploaded Excel file and perform the validation to make sure the data is valid.
Once the data is validated, we will send it to HANA processData.xsjs with POST method.
We’ll wait until the data is completely processed and once is done, we’ll refresh the SAC model.
function loadthis(that, changedProperties) {
var that_ = that;
widgetName = changedProperties.widgetName;
if (typeof widgetName === "undefined") {
widgetName = that._export_settings.title.split("|")[0];
}
div = document.createElement('div');
div.slot = "content_" + widgetName;
if (that._firstConnection === 0) {
let div0 = document.createElement('div');
div0.innerHTML = '<?xml version="1.0"?><script id="oView_' + widgetName + '" name="oView_' + widgetName + '" type="sapui5/xmlview"><mvc:View height="100%" xmlns="sap.m" xmlns:u="sap.ui.unified" xmlns:f="sap.ui.layout.form" xmlns:core="sap.ui.core" xmlns:mvc="sap.ui.core.mvc" controllerName="myView.Template"><f:SimpleForm editable="true"><f:content><Label text="Upload"></Label><VBox><u:FileUploader id="idfileUploader" width="100%" useMultipart="false" sendXHR="true" sameFilenameAllowed="true" buttonText="" fileType="XLSM" placeholder="" style="Emphasized" change="onValidate"></u:FileUploader></VBox></f:content></f:SimpleForm></mvc:View></script>';
_shadowRoot.appendChild(div0);

_shadowRoot.appendChild(div1);
let div2 = document.createElement('div');
div2.innerHTML = '<div id="ui5_content_' + widgetName + '" name="ui5_content_' + widgetName + '"><slot name="content_' + widgetName + '"></slot></div>';
_shadowRoot.appendChild(div2);
that_.appendChild(div);

SAC Analytic Application
Insert the custom widget Excel_1 and table Table_1 with the model from TC_SACXLSX.calculationview.
In Excel_1 widget onStart() event, add the following code to refresh the model:
Table_1.getDataSource().refreshData();
