Edit Documents

How to edit documents using WOQL

To use this How-To, first clone the Star Wars demo into your team on TerminusCMS. You will then have full access to the data needed for this tutorial

We can get a document by Id, by using read_document. For instance, we can write:

let v = Vars("doc", "id");
and(isa(v.id, "People"),
    triple(v.id, "label", string("Bossk")),
    read_document(v.id, v.doc))

We can also add documents by using a variable. For instance, we can create a new planet for each individual in the star wars universe as follows:

let v = Vars("person", "name");
and(isa(v.person, "People"),
    triple(v.person,"label",v.name),
    insert_document(doc({'@type' : 'Planet', label: v.name})))
