Frequently we need a table that a user can scroll through to present data for users. This is very easy with Field Engine and can be done with a few simple steps.
We need to include the Field Engine files:
<link href="FieldEngine.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="FieldEngine-Defaults.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="fe-browser.js"></script>
Then we need to specify the CSS for the hex grid, we're going to make our borders black and our hexes white:
.field-hex .field_view_inner {
background-color: black;
}
.field-hex .field_location {
background-color: white;
color: black;
}
Then we specify the scrollable table with a table and the class field-table
<table class="field-table" columns="3" rows="3">
<tr><th>Col A</th><th>Col B</th></tr>
<tr><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td></tr>
<tr><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td></tr>
<tr><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td></tr>
<tr><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td></tr>
<tr><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td></tr>
<tr><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td></tr>
<tr><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td></tr>
<tr><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td></tr>
<tr><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td><td>123</td><td>456</td></tr>
<tr><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td><td>789</td><td>012</td></tr>
</table>
And like that you have a scrollable table. Note that columns and rows specify the size of the view of the data.

Fortunately, Simple Data Toolkit provides an unofficial API for reading posts (at the time of this writing, the release of this is pending for complete support, but it is coming soon) To retrieve all posts for a given user in Python, using Simple Data Toolkit, we can do the following:
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI def printer(data, reader): print(reader.toArrayOfNativeMaps(None)) com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI.postsAPI().retrieveData({"owner": "60CQ59FN46SVQFXJ"}, printer)Let's suppose we want only a list of titles for a given user, we can do this instead:
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI def printer(data, reader): print(reader.filterColumnsOnly(["title"]).toArrayOfNativeMaps(None)) com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI.postsAPI().retrieveData({"owner": "60CQ59FN46SVQFXJ"}, printer)We can also pull suggested content from Ortingo with the following, where the topics we are searching on are provided with the query parameter (in this case it's value is data):
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI def printerUrls(data, reader): print(reader.filterColumnsOnly(["url"]).toArrayOfNativeMaps(None)) com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI.suggestionsAPI().retrieveData({"query": "data"}, printerUrls)And finally, we can also pull comments attached to a post in Ortingo with the following, where the user is myself and the post is a test post I created:
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI def printerComments(data, reader): print(reader.filterColumnsOnly(["commentDate", "post"]).toArrayOfNativeMaps(None)) com_sdtk_api_OrtingoAPI.commentsAPI().retrieveData({"owner": "60CQ59FN46SVQFXJ", "id": "test"}, printerComments)The columns supported at the time of this writing are: - id - owner - title - subtitle - post - url For comments the following columns are supported: - id - owner - commentDate - replyTo - postSimple Data Toolkit - Tutorial - Mac OS - Scheduled TaskLet's suppose you want to create a task that loads a Pipe Delimited File into a database on a daily basis.

(At the time of this writing, the release of this is pending for complete support, but it is coming soon) To retrieve all Ethereum transactions for a particular address we can do the following:
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_EtherscanAPI def printer(data, reader): print(reader.toArrayOfNativeMaps(None)) com_sdtk_api_EtherscanAPI.transactionsAPI().retrieveData({"address": "0xAddress"}, printer)Replace 0xAddress with the address you wish to search on. Additionally, we can convert the transactions to our standard internal event interface like so:
from sdtk import com_sdtk_api_EtherscanAPI,com_sdtk_calendar_EtherscanFormat def printerEvents(data, reader): etherScan = com_sdtk_calendar_EtherscanFormat.instance() for event in reader.toArrayOfNativeMaps(None): ci = etherScan.read(event) print(ci.start.toString()) com_sdtk_api_EtherscanAPI.transactionsAPI().retrieveData({"address": "0xAddress"}, printerEvents)Replace 0xAddress with the address you wish to search on.
