NAME Labkey::Query SYNOPSIS use Labkey::Query; my $results = Labkey::Query::selectRows( -baseUrl => 'http://labkey.com:8080/labkey/', -containerPath => 'myFolder/', -schemaName => 'lists', -queryName => 'mid_tags', ); ABSTRACT For interacting with data in LabKey Server DESCRIPTION This module is designed to simplify querying and manipulating data in LabKey Server. It should more or less replicate the javascript APIs of the same names. After the module is installed, if you need to login with a specific user you will need to create a .netrc file in the home directory of the user running the perl script. Documentation on .netrc can be found here: https://www.labkey.org/wiki/home/Documentation/page.view?name=netrc In API versions 0.08 and later, you can specify the param '-loginAsGuest' which will query the server without any credentials. The server must permit guest to that folder for this to work though. SEE ALSO The LabKey client APIs are described in greater detail here: https://www.labkey.org/wiki/home/Documentation/page.view?name=viewAPIs Support questions should be directed to the LabKey forum: https://www.labkey.org/announcements/home/Server/Forum/list.view?

See documentation of LABKEY.Query.ExtendedSelectRowsResults for more detail here: https://www.labkey.org/download/clientapi_docs/javascript-api/symbols/LABKEY.Query.html NOTE: - In version 1.0 and later of the perl API, the default result format is 9.1. This is different from the LabKey JS, which defaults to the earlier format for legacy purposes. - The environment variable 'LABKEY_URL' can be used instead of supplying a '-baseUrl' param insertRows() insertRows() can be used to insert records into a LabKey table The following are the minimum required params: my $insert = Labkey::Query::insertRows( -baseUrl => 'http://labkey.com:8080/labkey/', -containerPath => 'myFolder/', -schemaName => 'lists', -queryName => 'backup', -rows => [{ "JobName" => 'jobName', "Status" => $status, "Log" => $log, "Date" => $date }], ); The following are optional: -debug => 1, #will result in a more verbose output -loginAsGuest => #will not attempt to lookup credentials in netrc -netrcFile => optional. the location of a file to use in place of a .netrc file. NOTE: The environment variable 'LABKEY_URL' can be used instead of supplying a '-baseUrl' param updateRows() updateRows() can be used to update records in a LabKey table The following are the minimum required params: my $update = Labkey::Query::updateRows( -baseUrl => 'http://labkey.com:8080/labkey/', -containerPath => 'myFolder/', -schemaName => 'lists', -queryName => 'backup', -rows => [{ "JobName" => 'jobName', "Status" => $status, "Log" => $log, "Date" => $date }], ); The following are optional: -debug => 1, #will result in a more verbose output -loginAsGuest => #will not attempt to lookup credentials in netrc -netrcFile => optional. the location of a file to use in place of a .netrc file NOTE: The environment variable 'LABKEY_URL' can be used instead of supplying a '-baseUrl' param deleteRows() deleteRows() can be used to delete records in a LabKey table The following are the minimum required params: my $update = Labkey::Query::deleteRows( -baseUrl => 'http://labkey.com:8080/labkey/', -containerPath => 'myFolder/', -schemaName => 'lists', -queryName => 'backup', -rows => [{ "Key" => '12', }], ); The following are optional: -debug => 1, #will result in a more verbose output -loginAsGuest => #will not attempt to lookup credentials in netrc -netrcFile => optional. the location of a file to use in place of a .netrc file. NOTE: The environment variable 'LABKEY_URL' can be used instead of supplying a '-baseUrl' param executeSql() executeSql() can be used to execute arbitrary SQL The following are the minimum required params: my $result = Labkey::Query::executeSql( -baseUrl => 'http://labkey.com:8080/labkey/', -containerPath => 'myFolder/', -schemaName => 'study', -sql => 'select MyDataset.foo, MyDataset.bar from MyDataset', ); The following are optional: -maxRows => 10 #the max number of rows returned -sort => 'ColumnA,ColumnB' #sort order used for this query -offset => 100 #the offset used when running the query -containerFilterName => 'currentAndSubfolders' -debug => 1, #will result in a more verbose output -loginAsGuest => #will not attempt to lookup credentials in netrc -netrcFile => optional. the location of a file to use in place of a .netrc file NOTE: The environment variable 'LABKEY_URL' can be used instead of supplying a '-baseUrl' param
