Reading data from the Northwind service.
from odata import ODataService
url = 'http://services.odata.org/V4/Northwind/Northwind.svc/'
Service = ODataService(url, reflect_entities=True)
Supplier = Service.entities['Supplier']
query = Service.query(Supplier)
query = query.limit(2)
query = query.order_by(Supplier.CompanyName.asc())
for supplier in query:
print('Company:', supplier.CompanyName)
for product in supplier.Products:
print('- Product:', product.ProductName)
Writing changes. Note that the real Northwind service is read-only and the data modifications do not work against it.
import datetime
Order = Service.entities['Order']
Employee = Service.entities['Employee']
empl = Service.query(Employee).first()
query = Service.query(Order)
query = query.filter(Order.ShipCity == 'Berlin')
for order in query:
order.ShippedDate = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
order.Employee = empl
Service.save(order)
