Macro Syntax to Filter by Meta Properties

Macro results can also be filtered by the meta data of a resource.

A typical resource instance has associated meta data, for example:

meta: {
  title: "Australia - AUS"
  cached: true
  tags: [0]
  schema_version: "0.1.5"
  summary: "true"
  references: {...}-
  actions: [...12]-
  model_type: "data/Countries"
  path: [2]
  summary_attrs: [...3]-
  business_key: {...}-
  tagged_versions: [0]
}

The following macro fields are supported to filter by these properties:

  • __meta.business_key
  • __meta.model_type
  • __meta.schema_version
  • __meta.system_resource
  • __meta.tags
  • __meta.title_format
  • __meta.uri
  • __meta.version_tag

The macro fields can be combined with model attribute names in a comma separated, for example:

{# data.Countries.country_name,__meta.schema_version | country_name:Australia #}

Output:

[
    {
        "country_name": "Australia",
        "__meta": {
            "schema_version": "0.1.5"
        }
    }
]

As a further example: if the system_resource is set in the meta section of the resource, then the following macro can be used:

{# data.ConfigurationTemplate.name | __meta.system_resource: true #}

The output is all the Configuration Template names where it is a system resource:

[
  "AddFeature_Attributes_View",
  "AddFeature_DM",
  "AddFeature_DOMM",
  "AddFeature_DOMM_DM",
  "AddFeature_PKG",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Add",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Add_DM",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Del",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Del_DM",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Mod",
  "AddFeature_PWF_Mod_DM",
  "AddFeature_SelectModels_View",
  "AddWizard_GuiRules"
]

For devices, the following are examples of macros that are available for the device NDL:

__device_meta.ndl.name
__device_meta.ndl.data/CallManager.pkid
