How to create an OData Producer service model

service [ namespace "namespace-name" ] {
    "owner"."{table-name | view-name}" [ keys( "column-name", ... ) ];
    ...
}

namespace-name The namespace to define. When specified, _Container is appended to namespace-name to generate a container name.
table-name The name of the table to expose in the OData metadata.
view-name The name of the view to expose in the OData metadata.
column-name A column name to use as a primary key when one is not specified in the table or view defined by table-name or view-name.
Multiple column names can be referenced.

You can define a service that contains references to multiple tables or views.

The following restrictions apply to the keys clause:

You must specify a key list when referencing a table or view that does not contain a primary key.
You must not specify a key list when referencing a table that contains a primary key.

The model is applied to the OData Producer when you reference the text file using the Model option in your OData Server configuration file.

The following is an example of a service model that exposes a table and a view:

service namespace "DBServer" {
    "dba"."TableWithPrimaryKey";
    "dba"."ViewWithoutPrimaryKey" keys("primary_key1", "primary_key2");
}
