mappedResultsQuery abstract method
Executes a query on this connection and returns each row as a Map.
This method constructs and executes a query in the same way as query, but returns each row as a Map.
(Note: this method will execute additional queries to resolve table names the first time a table is encountered. These table names are cached per instance of this type.)
Each row map contains key-value pairs for every table in the query. The value is a Map that contains key-value pairs for each column from that table. For example, consider the following query:
SELECT employee.id, employee.name FROM employee;
This method would return the following structure:
[
{"employee" : {"name": "Bob", "id": 1}}
]
The purpose of this nested structure is to disambiguate columns that have the same name in different tables. For example, consider a query with a SQL JOIN:
SELECT employee.id, employee.name, company.name FROM employee LEFT OUTER JOIN company ON employee.company_id=company.id;
Each returned Map would contain employee
and company
keys. The name
key would be present in both inner maps.
[
{
"employee": {"name": "Bob", "id": 1},
"company: {"name": "stable|kernel"}
}
]
