action
...
executes
...
the

Javascript.
...
Parameters
...
specified
...
as

inputs
...
will
...
be
...
available
...
to

script
...
for

use.
...
The

JavascriptRule
...
can
...
have
...
one
...
or
...
more
...
outputs.
...
The

component
...
can
...
also
...
define

component
...
definition.
...
Each

specified
...
library
...
file
...
must
...
exist
...
in
...
the
...
solution,
...
and
...
will

be
...
pre-pended
...
to
...
the
...
script
...
that's
...
specified
...
in
...
the
...
component

definition.
...
In
...
this

way,
...
you
...
can
...
create
...
a
...
library
...
of

Component Name:
...
JavascriptRule
Inputs:
...
REQUIRED
Javascript - The Javascript to be executed.
Imported Javascript - Any files in the solution containing Javascript functions referenced by this Javascript.
OPTIONAL
Any inputs to the action sequence and any outputs from preceding actions in the action sequence can be specified. Inputs will be available as a variable to the scripting engine.
Outputs:
Any variable in the Javascript may be specified as an output from the action. Any output that is defined in the outputs, and not actually assigned a value in the Javascript Rule will be created and assigned a null value when the rule finishes execution.
Using query results in JavascriptRule
The query result from SQLLookupRule, MDXLookupRule, XQueryLookupRule, HQLLookupRule and MQLRelationshipDataComponent all generate an output of type IPentahoResultSet usually named query_result. You can access the data directly through JavaScript.
You can also create a result set of type JavaScriptResultSet which implements IPentahoResultSet and can be used by components that accept a IPentahoResultSet like the reporting component.

getColumnCount() // Number of columns
getRowCount() // Number of rows
getValueAt( row, col ) // Returns the value os a cell, row and column are zero based
setColumnHeaders( array ) // array size should match the number of columns
setColumnHeaders( array1, array2 ) // array1 for col headers, array2 for column types
addRow( array ) // array is a data row to add to the end of the result set
getMetaData() // Returns a IPentahoMetaData object
// Example: Create a result set
var results = new JavaScriptResultSet();
results.setColumnHeaders( 'DIAL_DATA', 'DIAL_MIN', 'DIAL_MAX' );
results.addRow( new Array(57.0, 0.0, 100.0) );
// Example: Create a result and access it's data
var results = new JavaScriptResultSet();
results.setColumnHeaders( 'REGION' );
results.addRow( new Array( 'Eastern' ) );
results.addRow( new Array( 'Western' ) );
results.addRow( new Array( 'Southern' ) );
firstrow = results.getValueAt(0,0); // returns '[Eastern]'
lastrow = results.getValueAt(results.getRowCount()-1,0); // returns '[Southern]'
columns = results.getColumnCount(); // returns 1
rows = results.getRowCount(); // returns 3
// Other useful methods
var meta = result_set.getMetaData(); // Returns an IPentahoMetaData object
var colCount = meta.getColumnCount();
var colHeaders = meta.getColumnHeaders(); //getColumnHeaders() returns object[][]
var i = 0;
for ( i = 0 ; i < colCount ; i++ ){
colName=colHeaders[0][i];
// use colName for something
