As the leading database management solution for Windows, macOS, iOS and the web, the Claris FileMaker Pro Integrated Development Environment supports a plugin architecture that can easily extend the feature set of the application. MBS FileMaker Plugin 14.4 has been updated and now includes over 7400 different functions, and the versatile plugin has gained more new functions: We got a few convenience functions to do database operations and pass record data as JSON. Use JSON.InsertRecord to create a new record and pass values for fields as JSON. Our plugin will detect the field types and correctly handles number, date, time and timestamp fields. You can update a record with the JSON.UpdateRecord function and provide the new field values as well as the primary key to find the record. Use JSON.UpdateRecords to update multiple records. The JSON.InsertOrUpdateRecord function goes a step further and updates an existing record. If none exists, it creates a new record. And finally you can delete one record with JSON.DeleteRecord function or multiple with JSON.DeleteRecords function. The tidy library allows us to cleanup and repair both XML and HTML. The XML.Tidy function fixes XML. And Text.Tidy function can do HTML, too. If you need to parse HTML, please use Text.HTMLtoJSON function to convert HTML to JSON and then process the JSON. Use DynaPDF.CreateExtGState to create a new extend graphics state and activate it with DynaPDF.SetExtGState function to use transparency in vector graphics, control overprint and rendering intent. We can create URL actions to have a button open an URL. You can query encryption information for a file and test whether a password is valid. We added MongoDB.CursorRecords to query the JSON for all found records. The MongoDB.ReplaceOne function takes options and we improved the MongoDB logging. On macOS you can use Command-Option-Shift-F shortcut in layout editor to jump to the object search field. With SyntaxColoring.AutoCompleteVariables.SetLocals you can set a list of variables to always show up in auto complete. And the dialog to specify a field shows the field type in a tooltip. The XL functions can now remove printer settings and VBA scripts from an Excel document. Use FM.FieldStatistics function to query size statistics for a field in a table over all records. The Python.RunFile function allows to run a Python script from disk.
