How to Select through KNEX ORM

Select is the only command available in the whole SQL to retrieve data. KNEX provides an implementation of the "Select" Query. The following code illustrates:

knex.select("*").from("depts")
.then(function (dept) {
    dept.forEach(function(value){
      console.log(value.deptno);
    });
  }).catch(function(err) {
    // All the error can be checked in this piece of code
    console.log(err);
  }).finally(function() {
    // To close the connection pool
    knex.destroy();
  });
}

The above code has following important observations:

a. Its Selecting data from a table named "Depts". We are selecting all the columns and rows.
b. Once select query has fetched rows, it will run a promise of .then
c. "dept" in the .then function is a collection of all records fetched from the table.
d. We can access individual columns like "value.deptno", "value.dname" within forEach loop.

Happy Coding !!!

How to use QueryExtenderControl in ASP.NET with LINQ

Queryextender control is a control that helps in doing actions like filtration, searching, sorting etc. on the LINQ Data source with few steps. In fact we don’t have to write any code with this. Screenshot given below is just an example that can easily be achieved through this control. In the above screenshot, we can see that there is a GridView Control that has been binded to a LINQData Source Control. And we have a DropDownlistBox that is also binded to another LINQData Source Control and displaying only grouped jobs. The GridView display all the employees who are matching the Job Parameter. This is done through QueryExtender Control. Also we can search for any name in the employee name's through Query Extender control. The code in the HTML goes like: < form id ="form1" runat ="server">     < div >         Select Job: < asp : DropDownList ID ="Job" runat ="server" DataSourceID ="LinqDataSource2...
