Set Values

Description

This operation updates a value for a key if it exists. In case the specified key does not exist, then a new key-value pair is added.

Method

[[[Backendless.shared hive:(NSString *)hiveName] mapStore:(NSString *)keyName] setWithData:(NSDictionary<NSString *,id> *)data responseHandler:^(NSInteger)responseHandler errorHandler:^(Fault *)errorHandler];
Backendless.shared.hive(hiveName: String).mapStore(keyName: String).set(data: [String : Any], responseHandler: ((Int) -> Void)!), errorHandler: ((Fault) -> Void)!)

where:

Argument                Description
hiveName Name of a hive where the operation is performed. String value.
keyName Key name identifying a map. String value.
data Key-value pairs that must be added to the map. Keys must be of the string type, and values of any data type.

Return Value

The number of newly added key-value pairs.

Example

The example below adds new key-value pairs "Pineapples":1.99 and "Grapes":1.49 to the "fruits" map.

[[[Backendless.shared hive:@"groceryStore"] mapStore:@"fruits"] setWithData:@{@"Pineapples": @1.99, @"Grapes": @1.49} responseHandler:^(NSInteger response) {
    // handle response
} errorHandler:^(Fault *fault) {
    // handle error
}];
Backendless.shared.hive("groceryStore").mapStore("fruits").set(data: ["Pineapples": 1.99, "Grapes": 1.49], responseHandler: { response in
    // handle response
}, errorHandler: { fault in
    // handle error
})

where:

Argument                Description
"groceryStore" Name of a hive where the operation is performed.
"fruits" Key name identifying a map.

map_api_set_values

where:

Argument                Description
hive name Name of a hive where the operation is performed.
key name Key name identifying a map.
values(object) An object containing key-value pairs that must be added to the map.

Returns the number of newly added key-value pairs.

Consider the following Map storage:
map_apI_example_map_store

The example below adds new key-value pairs "Pineapples":1.99 and "Grapes":1.49 to the "fruits" map.

map_api_example_set_values

The map will look as shown below after the Codeless logic runs:
map_apI_example_map_store_4
