UI5 OData Explorer

ODataExplorer

OpenUI5 Developer Blog

UI5 tool to explore entities of a given OData v2 service.

Online Demo (SAP HCP)

Highlights

• app to explorer a given OData v2 service
• demo HCP destination pointing out to northwind example service Northwind
• included coding to add service browser for SAP Gateways using /sap/opu/odata/iwfnd/catalogservice/
• some css fixes for token (avoid clipping in Tablet, float)
• added Visualizer to render networkgraph with options to export to SVG and PNG

SAP Service Browser

If you will use the app to explorer services on an SAP Gateway, you can enable the service catalog to discover and search for all existing services. The selected service will be loaded automatically. To enable this feature you have to

• inside the manifest.json copy the xmodel/catalog model to the existing model section and delete xmodel (preload: false currently does not work, maybe a bug)
• inside the Metadata.controller.js set property "_bUseCatalogService: true" to true to show service selector instead of using demo service
• FIX: I also changed useBatch: false like mentioned by Gregor's issue #1
• remove line "authenticationMethod": "none", and block "securityConstraints": [...], from neo-app.json. This is used for demo purposes only to make to the public/anonymous available!

Deployment on SCP - "no data" - Metadata is loaded

Hello Holger,

at first thank you for this. I think this is a great project.

I'm currently trying to deploy this to our SCP Account and have an issue, that no data is shown in the tables. I made the changes that you mentioned

The metadata seems to be loaded correctly

The response looks like this

Do you have an idea what I am doing wrong?

Thank you

Visualizer, uncaught promise

I'm unable to get the visualizer to work. Its always returning the below error when I click on the button to bring it up. The page navigates, and the controls load, but the loading icon spins and no actual content comes up.

I've changed my SAPUI5 resource to use the CDN latest version and others without success. Any suggestions?

XML fragment directory issue

Maybe I implemented this wrong so I'm posting this to see if maybe thats the case. In the Metadata.view.xml file the buttons reference the various fragmentName files with "./fragment". I was getting errors saying "view//fragment" not found. I simply edited the string and removed the dot ".". This resolved the errors.

"useBatch": false required for NetWeaver ABAP Developer Edition 7.50

Dear Holger,

thank you for the great work. I've tried your project against my NetWeaver ABAP Developer Edition 7.50. To make it work I had to set:

"useBatch": false

in the model configuration. With true I got the error:

Resource not found for the segment 'ServiceCollection'

for the $batch request.

Hope that tip perhaps helps others.
