Model

Naming​

Before reading this page, make sure you have studied the model naming convention in FastPlaz.

tabel      : employees
file model : employee_model.pas

Creating a Model​

A model can be created in 2 ways:

  1. From the File|New ...|Database Model Generator menu
  2. From the FastPlaz|Database Model Generator menu

In this dialog Menu Controller enter the name of the model to create. Pay attention to the model naming convention and how it relates to the primary key.

A file employee_model.pas will then be created, roughly like this.

unit employee_model;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

interface

uses
  Classes, SysUtils, fpjson, database_lib, string_helpers, dateutils,
  datetime_helpers, array_helpers;

type

{ TEmployeeModel }

  TEmployeeModel = class(TSimpleModel)
  private
  public
    constructor Create(const DefaultTableName: string = '');
  end;

implementation


uses common;

constructor TEmployeeModel.Create(const DefaultTableName: string = '');
begin
  inherited Create( DefaultTableName); // table name = employees
  //inherited Create('yourtablename'); // if use custom tablename
end;

end.

If your table name and primary key are different, define them as described in the custom ORM convention.

constructor TEmployeeModel.Create(const DefaultTableName: string = '');
begin
  inherited Create( DefaultTableName);
  TableName := 'karyawan'; // define the table name here
  primaryKey := 'id';
end;
