ui5-mockdata-downloader v0.2.4

ui5-mockdata-downloader

Ui5-mockdata-downloader downloads all metadata.xml files from all OData services listed under the dataSources part of manifest.json. Each metadata.xml is parsed and used to download all entity type sets including all links to navigation properties as JSON. Duplicate entries in the JSON objects are removed. The JSON data and metadata.xml is then written to files in the directory specified by the localUri property in manifest.json.

Example dataSources part of manifest.json

"dataSources": {
	"ODATA_SERVICE": {
		"uri": "/sap/opu/odata/sap/ODATA_SERVICE/",
		"type": "OData",
		"settings": {
			"odataVersion": "2.0",
			"localUri": "localService/ODATA_SERVICE/metadata.xml"
		}
	}
},
