1. Download the dataServiceSample.zip file and extract it to a location on your computer. Let's call this location <Dataservice_Home>. This contains a DB script for updating the back-end database with the channelling information of the healthcare service.

2. Open a terminal, navigate to the <Dataservice_Home> directory and execute the following command:

   Tip
   When executing the below command, replace the <PATH_TO_EI_HOME> with the folder path of your WSO2 EI distributuion. For example, if your WSO2 EI distribution (i.e., <EI_HOME>) is located in the /Users/Documents/ directory, execute the following command: ant -Ddshome=/Users/Documents/wso2ei-6.x.x Also, you need to install Apache Ant to execute this command.

   Code Block
   ant -Ddshome=PATH_TO_EI_HOME

1. On the Main tab, click Create under Data Service. 

2. In the Create Data Service screen, enter DOCTORS_DataService as the data service name, and click Next.

3. Click Add New Datasource and enter the following details:

   Field	Value
   DatasourceID	default
   Datasourcetype	Select RDBMS and default.
   Database Engine	H2
   Driver Class	org.h2.Driver
   URL	jdbc:h2:file:./samples/data-services/database/DATA_SERV_QSG
   User Name	wso2ds
   Password	wso2ds

4. Click Save and then click Next to start defining a query.

5. Now, let's start writing a query to get data from the datasource. 
   First, you need to define a query to get the details of all the available doctors from the database.

   1. Click Add New Query to open the Add New Query screen.

   2. Enter the following values:
      

      Field	Value
      Query ID	select_all_DOCTORS_query
      Datasource	default
      SQL	Code Block SELECT NAME, HOSPITAL, SPECIALITY, AVAILABILITY, CHARGE FROM PUBLIC.DOCTORS

   3. Click Generate Response to automatically create mappings for the fields.
      

   4. Under the Result (Output Mapping) section, change the values of the following fields.
      

      Grouped by element	DOCTORSCollection
      Row name	DOCTOR

      The output mapping will be as shown below.
      

      Info
      Output mapping specifies how the data that is fetched from your query will be shown in the response. Note that, by default, the output type is XML.

6. Click Save.
7. Now, let's create another query that can get the doctor information based on specialization.
   1. Click Add New Query to open the Add New Query screen.

   2. Enter the following values:

      Field	Value
      Query ID	select_DOCTORS_from_SPECIALITY_query
      Datasource	default
      SQL	Code Block SELECT NAME, HOSPITAL, SPECIALITY, AVAILABILITY, CHARGE FROM PUBLIC.DOCTORS WHERE SPECIALITY=?

   3. Click Generate Input Mappings and a new input mapping record will be created. 

   4. Edit the record and change the Mapping Name to SPECIALITY, and click Save. You will now have the following input mapping:
      

      Info
      Input mappings allow you to add parameters to a query so that you can set the parameter value when executing the query. According to the above definition, you need to provide the SPECIALTY as an input in order to retrieve the data corresponding to the SPECIALTY.

   5. Click Main Configuration, to go back to the main configuration after adding the input mapping.
      

   6. Click Generate Response to automatically create mappings for the fields. 

   7. Under the Result (Output Mapping) section, change the values of the following fields
      

      Grouped by element	DOCTORList
      Row name	DOCTOR

      The output mapping will be as shown below.
      
      

      Info
      Output mapping specifies how the data that is fetched from your query is shown in the response. Note that, by default, the output type is XML.

8. Click Save and then click Next to open the Operations screen.
   Since we are exposing the data as a REST resource, we do not need an operation. An operation is needed only if you are exposing the data as a SOAP operation.
9. Click Next to open the Resources screen.

   1. Click Add New Resources to open the Add Resources screen. 
      Let's first create a resource to invoke the select_all_DOCTORS_query:
      

      Field	Value
      Resource Path	/getAllDoctors
      Resource Method	GET
      Query ID	select_all_DOCTORS_query

   2. Click Save to save the resource.
10. Now, let's create another resource to invoke the select_DOCTORS_from_SPECIALITY_query.

    1. Click Add New Resources to open the Add Resources screen and enter the following details:

       Field	Value
       Resource Path	/getDoctors
       Resource Method	GET
       Query ID	select_DOCTORS_from_SPECIALITY_query

    2. Click Save to save the resource.
11. Click Finish after you have defined the resources to complete the data service creation process. You are now taken to the Deployed Services screen, which shows all the data services deployed on the server including the one you created.
