Hi, we have a requirement to create a tool that will invoke javascript but also need it to execute SQL as well. We cannot seem to get this to work. 

Example 

script(foreach="true",language="JavaScript")
  {

some code 

if (x=1) {

}

else {

sql(foreach="true",url="$(SERVER)/_tb37b/ael/Tool/Controller")
  {
    structure
    {
      text(data="update alerts.status set Location='")
      variable(name="username")
      text(data=");\u000d\n")
    }
  }

}

Any ideas on how we can get the above to work? 

And once this is created manually, it can't be pulled in via the Dash Admin Tools function and edited because it will only save the SQL or Javascript part, depending on what tab is open when you click save. 

Hi Prem,

tools are either/or - you can't combine SQL and Javascript.

And given that the javascript-Tool runs in the user's browser, it doesn't have any access to the ObjectServer.

Not sure what you need to achieve - if you need javascript functions in the user's browser and want to modify the event, then one way I can think of is to launch a cgi-script from the javascript-Tool. The cgi then could modify the event via nco_sql. Not at all ideal, but would work.

If you just need to run different SQLs based on a variable x, consider adding the variable to the update's where clause (I'm using Severity instead of your x in the example):

update alerts.status set Location='%username' where Serial in ( $selected_rows.Serial ) and Severity < 3;
update alerts.status set Customer='%username' where Serial in ( $selected_rows.Serial ) and Severity >=3;

If you need the user to enter the "x" value you can even use a prompt to retrieve the info from the user.

HTH,

Michael

or you could your code in an impact policy 
do your javascript and then do a eventenrichment in the same policy

and have a simple http call to to restapi to launch it..

if you have impact that is :-)

Saury.  its a webgui question  :-)  so no aiops..  but NOI

For Omnibus, you must create the tool and within the tool call the script, which must be on the Omnibus server. The tool sends the script parameters and the script calls the Java or Python. Another option is to use Impact and create an operator view so that when you run it from the menu, the operator view opens.

If you'd like, you can give me an example of what you want to do so I can give you some guidance.

Regards!
