Enable GRPC Entity Service

You code against the LinkAhead GRPC API via the grpc-entity-service module.

Enable it via the build variable:

BUILD_MODULE_EXT_GRPC_ENTITY_SERVICE=ENABLED

You can, among other things,

  1. create a new TransactionService:

var service = new window.entityService.TransactionService(
    window.connection.getBasePath() + "api");

  1. execute a query:

var response = await service.executeQuery("FIND Something");

  1. Use the Entity class to wrapp the “Entity” WebGRPC-Message:

var entity = new windown.entityService.Entity(
    response.getResponsesList()[0]
            .getRetrieveResponse()
            .getFindQueryResult()
            .getResultSetList()[0]
            .getEntityResponse()
            .getEntity());
