Daanse Tutorial - Level If Parents Name ​

Cube with hierarchy which use SQL query. This example shows combine phisical table as fact and SqlView for hierarchy SqlView represents a virtual table defined by SQL query expressions rather than physical database tables.

Database Schema ​

The cube defined in this example is based on a 3 tables that stores all the data.

  • The phisical table is named Fact uses for Cube1 and contains two columns: DIM_KEY and VALUE. The DIM_KEY column serves as a discriminator, while the VALUE column contains the measurements to be aggregated.
  • The phisical table is named Level_1 uses for Level1 and contains 2 columns: KEY, NAME .
  • The phisical table is named Level_2 uses for Level2 and contains 3 columns: KEY, NAME, L1_KEY.
xml
<roma:DatabaseSchema   id="_databaseSchema_LevelIfParentsName">
  <tables xsi:type="roma:PhysicalTable" id="_table_fact" name="Fact">
    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_column_fact_dim_key" name="DIM_KEY" type="Integer"/>
    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_column_fact_value" name="VALUE" type="Integer"/>

    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_column_level_1_name" name="NAME"/>
  </tables>
  <tables xsi:type="roma:PhysicalTable" id="_level_2" name="Level_2">
    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_level_2_key" name="KEY" type="Integer"/>
    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_level_2_name" name="NAME"/>
    <columns xsi:type="roma:PhysicalColumn" id="_level_2_l1_key" name="L1_KEY" type="Integer"/>
  </tables>
</roma:DatabaseSchema>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Query Fact ​

The bridge between the cube and the database is the query element. In this case, it is a TableQuery, as it directly references the physical table Fact.

xml
<roma:TableQuery  id="_queryFact" table="_table_fact"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Query Level1 ​

The bridge between the cube and the database is the query element. In this case, it is a TableQuery, as it directly references the physical table Level_1.

xml
<roma:TableQuery  id="_queryLevel1" table="_level_1"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Query Level1 ​

The bridge between the cube and the database is the query element. In this case, it is a TableQuery, as it directly references the physical table Level_2.

xml
<roma:TableQuery  id="_queryLevel2" table="_level_2"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Query Join ​

The JoinQuery specifies which TableQueries should be joined. It also defines the columns in each table that are used for the join:

  • In the lower-level table (Level_2), the join uses the foreign key L1_KEY.
  • In the upper-level table (Level_1), the join uses the primary key KEY.
xml
<roma:JoinQuery  id="_queryJoin1">
  <left key="_level_2_l1_key" query="_queryLevel2"/>
  <right key="_column_level_1_key" query="_queryLevel1"/>
</roma:JoinQuery>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

DimensionMembersHiddenIfParentsName ​

The Dimension has only one hierarchy.

xml
<roma:StandardDimension  id="_dimensionmembershiddenifparentsname" name="DimensionMembersHiddenIfParentsName" hierarchies="roma:ExplicitHierarchy _hierarchy1"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Hierarchy1 ​

This hierarchy consists two levels Level1 and Level2.

  • The primaryKey attribute specifies the column that contains the primary key of the hierarchy.
  • The query attribute references the query used to retrieve the data for the hierarchy.
xml
<roma:ExplicitHierarchy  id="_hierarchy1" name="Hierarchy1" primaryKey="_level_2_key" query="_queryJoin1" levels="_h1Level1 _h1Level2"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Level1 ​

The Level uses the column attribute to specify the primary key KEY from Level_1. Additionally, it defines the nameColumn NAME from Level_1 attribute to specify the column that contains the name of the level.

xml
<roma:Level  id="_h1Level1" name="Level1" column="_column_level_1_key" nameColumn="_column_level_1_name"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Level2 ​

The Level uses the column attribute to specify the primary key KEY from Level_2. Additionally, it defines the nameColumn NAME from Level_2 attribute to specify the column that contains the name of the level. Level has attribute IF_PARENTS_NAME Hide members whose name matches their parent member's name. Eliminates redundant display where child members have identical names to their parents in the hierarchy.

xml
<roma:Level  id="_h1Level2" name="Level2" column="_level_2_key" hideMemberIf="IfParentsName" nameColumn="_level_2_name"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Measure1 ​

Measure1 use Fact table VALUE column with sum aggregation in Cube.

xml
<roma:SumMeasure  id="_measure1" name="Measure1" column="_column_fact_value"/>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.

Cube ​

In this example uses cube with fact table Fact as data.

xml
<roma:PhysicalCube   id="_cube" name="Cube" query="_queryFact">
  <dimensionConnectors foreignKey="roma:PhysicalColumn _column_fact_dim_key" dimension="roma:StandardDimension _dimensionmembershiddenifparentsname" overrideDimensionName="DimensionMembersHiddenIfBlankName" id="_dc_dimensionMembersHiddenIfBlankName"/>
  <measureGroups>
    <measures xsi:type="roma:SumMeasure" id="_measure1" name="Measure1" column="_column_fact_value"/>
  </measureGroups>
</roma:PhysicalCube>

Note: This is only a symbolic example. For the exact definition, see the Definition section.
