FieldMapping Class

Defines a mapping between a field in a data source and a target field in an index.

All required parameters must be populated in order to send to server.

Constructor

FieldMapping(*, source_field_name: str, target_field_name: str | None = None, mapping_function: _models.FieldMappingFunction | None = None, **kwargs: Any)

Keyword-Only Parameters

Name Description
source_field_name
str

The name of the field in the data source. Required.
target_field_name
str

The name of the target field in the index. Same as the source field name by default.

Default value: None
mapping_function
FieldMappingFunction

A function to apply to each source field value before indexing.

Default value: None

Variables

Name Description
source_field_name
str

The name of the field in the data source. Required.
target_field_name
str

The name of the target field in the index. Same as the source field name by default.
mapping_function
FieldMappingFunction

A function to apply to each source field value before indexing.

Methods

as_dict

Return a dict that can be serialized using json.dump.

Advanced usage might optionally use a callback as parameter:

Key is the attribute name used in Python. Attr_desc is a dict of metadata. Currently contains 'type' with the msrest type and 'key' with the RestAPI encoded key. Value is the current value in this object.

The string returned will be used to serialize the key. If the return type is a list, this is considered hierarchical result dict.

See the three examples in this file:

  • attribute_transformer

  • full_restapi_key_transformer

  • last_restapi_key_transformer

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.
deserialize

Parse a str using the RestAPI syntax and return a model.
enable_additional_properties_sending
from_dict

Parse a dict using given key extractor return a model.

By default consider key extractors (rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor, attribute_key_case_insensitive_extractor and last_rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor)
is_xml_model
serialize

Return the JSON that would be sent to server from this model.

This is an alias to as_dict(full_restapi_key_transformer, keep_readonly=False).

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.

as_dict(keep_readonly: bool = True, key_transformer: ~typing.Callable[[str, dict[str, typing.Any], ~typing.Any], ~typing.Any] = <function attribute_transformer>, **kwargs: ~typing.Any) -> MutableMapping[str, Any]

Parameters

Name Description

bool

If you want to serialize the readonly attributes

Default value: True
key_transformer
<xref:function>

A key transformer function.

Returns

Type Description
dict

deserialize

Parse a str using the RestAPI syntax and return a model.

deserialize(data: Any, content_type: str | None = None) -> Self

Parameters

Name Description
data
Required
str

Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

if something went wrong

enable_additional_properties_sending 

enable_additional_properties_sending() -> None

from_dict

Parse a dict using given key extractor return a model.

By default consider key extractors (rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor, attribute_key_case_insensitive_extractor and last_rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor)

from_dict(data: Any, key_extractors: Callable[[str, dict[str, Any], Any], Any] | None = None, content_type: str | None = None) -> Self
