How to create UI5 Applications for SAP Business One using SAP Web IDE

Question

1. We are trying to use SAP Web IDE (WIDE) to develop UI5 applications. The back end is SAP Business One (B1). Currently B1 provides a service layer (B1SL) with which ODATA syntax can be used. However B1SL is not integrated with WIDE.
2. How can I retrieve the B1SL metadata.xml into WIDE? WIDE uses xml views, which depend on the associations and navigation properties defined in this metadata.xml.
3. What is the best way then to manually call B1SL, and manually form MVC models within WIDE? Should these calls be created within component.js?

Thanks. Chong Chin

正如其描述所指出的那样，B1 SL​​支持REST http请求，因此您可以使用jquery.ajax通过http检索和发布数据，但是您可能需要在SAPUI5应用程序内部实现中间JSON模型才能利用数据绑定。
