Parsing CDS Models

This feature allows you to parse CDS source code into a Core Schema Notation (CSN) model. The code sample demonstrates how to parse a simple CDS model defining an entity 'Books' with a 'title' property.

const cds = require('@sap/cds-compiler');
const source = 'entity Books { title: String; }';
const csn = cds.parse(source);
console.log(JSON.stringify(csn, null, 2));

Compiling CDS Models

This feature allows you to compile CDS source code into a CSN model. The code sample shows how to compile a CDS model into its CSN representation.

const cds = require('@sap/cds-compiler');
const source = 'entity Books { title: String; }';
const csn = cds.compile.to.csn(source);
console.log(JSON.stringify(csn, null, 2));

Transforming CDS Models

This feature allows you to transform CDS models into different formats, such as EDM (Entity Data Model). The code sample demonstrates transforming a CSN model into an EDM format.

const cds = require('@sap/cds-compiler');
const source = 'entity Books { title: String; }';
const csn = cds.compile.to.csn(source);
const edm = cds.compile.to.edm(csn);
console.log(JSON.stringify(edm, null, 2));
