Exporting data to google sheet

问题


This is more about performance. This is the scenario:

This app is used to control the inventory of PCs in an organization. So the app has a model that consists of 32 fields and 1 relation. The model already has 2650 records saved in it. I also have a process that exports all the records to a google sheet. Even though it works fine, the export consumes too much time from my point of view.

So my logic consists of getting all the records, looping through each one and getting the data of each field. Then put all the fields into a row and finally save it to a google sheet; thus it looks like this:

var allRows ="";
header = ["Property Tag", "Status", "Building", "Department", "Floor", "Area", "Specific Location", "Serial Number", "Model", "Purchase Date", "Warranty End", "HD Size"];
header.push("Processor", "RAM", "PC Name", "MAC Address", "Monitor 1", "Monitor 1 Model", "Monitor 2", "Monitor 2 Model", "Notes", "Office", "Last Inventoried","SSO Type");
header.push("Static/Reserved IP Address", "Static IP Reason","Card Reader Installed", "Last Repair Issue", "Last Repair Date", "Created By", "Created On");
header.push("Last Modified By", "Last Modified On", "Item Type");    

allRows += header.join() + "\r\n";

//get all pcItems and save them to google sheet
var pcItems = app.models.pcItems.newQuery().run();
for(i=0; i<pcItems.length; i++){

  item = pcItems[i];

  propTag = (item.propertyTag) ? ("'" + item.propertyTag) : "";
  status = item.status || "";
  building = item.building || "";
  dept = item.department || "";
  floor = item.floor || "";
  area = item.area || "";
  specLoc = (item.specificLocation) ? "'" + item.specificLocation : "";
  serialNum = (item.serialNumber) ? "'" + item.serialNumber : "";
  model = item.model || "";
  purchase = (item.purchaseDate) ? Utilities.formatDate(item.purchaseDate, "GMT-6", "MM/dd/yyyy") : "";
  warranty = (item.warrantyEnd) ? Utilities.formatDate(item.warrantyEnd, "GMT-6", "MM/dd/yyyy") : "";
  hd = (item.hdSize) ? "'" + item.hdSize : "";
  processor = item.processor || "";
  ram = item.ram || "";
  pcName = (item.pcName) ? "'" + item.pcName : "";
  macAdd = (item.macAddress) ? "'" + item.macAddress : "";
  monOne = (item.monitor1) ? "'" + item.monitor1 : "";
  monOneMod = item.monitor1Model || "";
  monTwo = (item.monitor2) ? "'" + item.monitor2 : "";
  monTwoMod = item.monitor2Model || "";
  notes = (item.notes) ? "'" + item.notes : "";
  office = item.officeVersion || "";
  lastInv = (item.lastInventoried) ? "'" + item.lastInventoried : "";
  ssoType = item.ssoType || "";
  staticIp = item.staticIpAddress || "";
  staticIpReason = item.staticIpReason || "";
  var cardReader = (item.cardReaderInstalled === true) ? true : (item.cardReaderInstalled === false) ? false : "";
  createdBy = item.createdBy || "";
  createdOn = (item.created) ?  "'" + Utilities.formatDate(item.created, "GMT-6", "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm") : "";      
  lastRepairDate = (item.lastRepairDate) ? Utilities.formatDate(item.lastRepairDate, "GMT-6", "MM/dd/yyyy") : "";
  lastRepairIssue = item.lastRepairIssue || "";

  //the history relation
  hist = item.itemHistory;    
  if(hist.length){
    lastModifiedBy = hist[hist.length-1].modifiedBy;
    lastModifiedOn = (hist[hist.length-1].modified) ? ("'" + Utilities.formatDate(hist[hist.length-1].modified, "GMT-6", "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm")) : "";
  } else {
    lastModifiedBy = "";
    lastModifiedOn = "";        
  }

  row = [propTag, status, building, dept, floor, area, specLoc, serialNum, model, purchase, warranty, hd];
  row.push(processor, ram, pcName, macAdd, monOne, monOneMod, monTwo, monTwoMod, notes, office, lastInv, ssoType);
  row.push(staticIp, staticIpReason, cardReader, lastRepairIssue, lastRepairDate, createdBy, createdOn, lastModifiedBy, lastModifiedOn, "PC");

  formattedRow = [];
  for(d=0; d<row.length; d++){        
    cellData = row[d];
    if((typeof(cellData) === "string") && (cellData.indexOf(",") > -1)){
      cellData = '"'+cellData+'"';
    } else if(typeof(cellData) === "object"){
      cellData = Utilities.formatDate(cellData, "GMT", "MM/dd/yyyy");
    }
    formattedRow.push(cellData);
  }

  csvRow = formattedRow.join(); 
  allRows += csvRow+"\r\n";
}

var data = Utilities.newBlob("").setDataFromString(allRows, "UTF-8").setContentType("text/csv");
var newFile = Drive.Files.insert({title: fileName}, data, {convert: true});

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(newFile.id);
var sheet = ss.getActiveSheet();  

var fileHeader = sheet.getRange(1, 1, 1, sheet.getLastColumn());
fileHeader.setBackground("#efefef").setFontWeight("Bold").setVerticalAlignment("Middle");
sheet.setRowHeight(1, 30);
sheet.setFrozenRows(1);

var allData = sheet.getRange(1, 1, sheet.getLastRow(), sheet.getLastColumn());
allData.setNumberFormat("@");  
sheet.autoResizeColumns(1, sheet.getLastColumn());  

sheet.deleteColumns(sheet.getLastColumn(), 3);
return ss.getUrl();

This process takes approximately 8-10 minutes to complete. I believe this could be done faster. The reason I know that is because if I go to Settings > Deployments > Export Data and do an export of ALL data, it only takes 1:30 mins. That is blazingly fast, considering it also exports other data.

So my question is... Does anyone knows a better approach that could help me achieve this task? For any input on this matter, I am very thankful in advance!

First things first I would recommend to find bottlenecks in your code. For instance you can try to use console.time and console.timeEnd to log execution times. Once you know where are the slowest parts of your algorithm you can tackle how to improve them.

Second thing to try is to use prefetch. It seems, that now your script makes a call to the database to access relations for each record. So, total number of calls to DB is N * M + 1, where N is total number of records, M is number of relations for each record and 1 is the initial call to get records without relations.

var query = app.models.pcItems.newQuery();
query.prefetch.myModel._add();

var pcItems = query.run();

for (...) {

...

// after adding prefetch this line should not cause additional
// call to the database
hist = item.itemHistory; 

...
}
