Get the URL of the main Entity, such as a Substance or a Mixture.

Example get the parent entity URL for a study.
Note that in this case, the study is a variable capturing a list of studies under a certain parent node:

Get the URL of a section document.

Example get the document URL for a study.
Note that in this case, the study is a variable capturing a list of studies under a certain parent node:

This function gets the Document key for either an Entity reference or Document reference.
The resulting key can be used to continue to extract IUCLID data from the linked Entity or Document.

Example get the reference substance name linked to a ‘SUBSTANCE’ document:
<#assign substance = _subject />

${referenceSubstance.ReferenceSubstanceName}

This function returns a section document key.

The function should be iterated using #list to fetch all section documents
under the relevant section node.

Example get a list of keys for all ‘FLEXIBLE_RECORD.IntermediateEffects’ documents.
(Note, the example uses '_subject' as the parent entity)
<#local resultStudyList = iuclid.getSectionDocumentsForParentKey

(_subject.documentKey, "FLEXIBLE_RECORD", "IntermediateEffects")/>

This function sorts an order of returned values based on the order of picklist phrases
(also known as picklist items)
*Note that this does not work for multipicklists, only single picklists.

This function could condition a returned set of IUCLID Documents, e.g.:

• Return based on an order of picklist phrases;
• Return a set of repeatable block items sorted by an order of picklist phrases.

Example return a list of studies by the order of phrases assigned in:

• AdministrativeData.PurposeFlag

*Note that ‘study’ represents a sequence of IUCLID endpoint documents, e.g. for ‘Explosiveness’:

<#assign returnList = iuclid.sortByField

(study, "AdministrativeData.PurposeFlag",["key study","supporting study","weight of evidence"])/>

This function gets the history of user modifications.

To get the list, you need to list through the Directive used to get the document key.

Example (get the history of a document):
<#assign historyList = iuclid.getHistoryForDocumentKey(document.documentKey) />

<#list historyList as history>

${ history.date }

</#list>

This function gets the phrase definition of a picklist.

The returned value can then be used to get either (if content is available):

1. The phrase name
2. The ‘other:’ text value
3. The phrase description
4. The remarks value of the picklist

Example

1. Get phrase text

<#assign localizedPhrase = iuclid.localizedPhraseDefinitionFor(picklistValue.code, locale) />

${localizedPhrase.text}

2. Get other than-default language text

To get languages other than the default ‘locale’ (i.e. English), you do not use the above function.

Instead, you list through the:

• localised texts (whether for a text or picklist field) to fetch the:
  • language (e.g. EN)
  • field value

Here is an example for "FLEXIBLE_RECORD.SDSInfoMixtures":
<#assign toxInfo = toxSDS.InformationOnMixtures.TradeNamesAndSafetyDataSheetsOfTheMixture.SDSsection11/>

<#if toxInfo.localizedTexts?has_content>

<#list toxInfo.localizedTexts as toxicologicalInformation>

<para>[<@com.text toxicologicalInformation.language/>]</para>

<para><@com.richText toxicologicalInformation.value/></para>

</#list>

</#if>

This function gets the metadata object for an attachment in IUCLID.

The objects available are listed below, including the variable to use to extract that object:

• File name (.filename)
• Size of file (.size)
• Media type [file extension] (.mediaType)
• MD5 file that verifies the integrity of downloaded files (.md5)
• Remarks given to attachment (.remarks)

Example 1 (get structural formula attachment data in reference substance):
<#assign attachmentData = iuclid.getMetadataForAttachment(chemicalStructure.StructureFile)/>

${attachmentData.filename}

Example 2a (get the image of a file, using:
iuclid.getContentForAttachment(< variable representing the attachment key>)
(to render the base64 string )

<mediaobject><imageobject>
<imagedata width="100%" scalefit="1"
fileref="data:${structuralFormula.mediaType};base64,${iuclid.getContentForAttachment(attachmentKey)}"
/>
</imageobject></mediaobject>

Example 2b (Get the multilingual text of an 'other' text field in a phrase)
<#local organsMultiLingual = item.Toxicity.AffectedOrgans/>

<#if item.Toxicity.AffectedOrgans.localizedTexts?has_content>

<#list organsMultiLingual.localizedTexts as organsAffected>

<para>

[<@com.text organsAffected.language/>]

</para>

<para>

Affected organs: <@com.text organsAffected.value/>;

</para>

</#list>

</#if>

The function .hasElement works with variables that point to IUCLID data structure elements such as IUCLID Blocks of Fields.

The function is useful in checking what should be included or excluded as part of a Freemarker #if condition.

For example, if you want to return the following field path element

• SubstancePhysicalState

in the block:

• ENDPOINT_STUDY_RECORD.GeneralInformation.ResultsAndDiscussion

<#list appearanceStudies as appearance>
<#list appearance.ResultsAndDiscussion?children as child>
<#if child.hasElement("SubstancePhysicalState")>
<#return child>
</#if>
</#list>
</#list>

The .hasElement function is distinguished from the Freemarker ?has_content function as this checks if a variable is true or not and applies to any freemarker variable pointing to IUCLID documents, strings etc

This function is called to retrieve the IUCLID field label name (as shown in the user interface)

Example

<#list block?children as child>
<#if child.hasElement("AdditionalInformation")>
<@iuclid.label for=child var="addInfo"/>
${addInfo}
</#if>
</#list>

(Reference substance confidentiality flag, note this is a node not a field path)

This function can be called to retrieve the sub-entity of a parent entity.

The function permits the user to retrieve one or, a combination of the following:

• only the sub-entity
• the parent entity of the sub-entity
• the entities contained in the sub-entity

The sub entity UUID can be retrieved directly with:

${subEntityUuid}

To retrieve the sub-entity key in order to retrieve data from the sub-entity, you call from macros_common_general.ftl the following Directive:

<#assign subEntityKey = com.getSubEntityKey(subEntityUuid) />

From here, you can get the contents as needed, from the sub-entity, e.g.:

${subEntityKey.name}

This function can be called from the common module 'macros_common_general' and retrieves the inbound reference(s) from a document or entity (i.e. the references being made to that document or entity)

Example

<#list com.inboundReferences(<sectionDocumentVariable>.documentKey) as inboundReferenceKey>
<#assign inboundReference = iuclid.getDocumentForKey(inboundReferenceKey) />
${inboundReferenceKey.name}
</#list>
