Description

Currently when editing a Group's query, you'll have to upload the whole select-statement in json.

This is prone to race condition, becuase if the size of the query is big (let's say you have 4000 nodes in a query, selected by UUID), fetch the group, edit it according to your needs, and re-upload it, chances are greater then zero (depends on usecase), that it has been edited by someone other, not to say about the necessary roundtrip-time it takes unnecessarily.

Proposing a function to add/remove items from the "where"-array:

Example:

{
  "select": "node",
  "composition": "Or",
  "where": [
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "eq",
      "value": "5ea1cb80-f4d3-11e4-be7b-228f081228de" 
    },
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "eq",
      "value": "0cfc3466-3e8c-11e5-bc06-5453cf67da3d" 
    },

Add a new where-clause:

curl -H "X-API-Token: yourToken" -X POST 'http://rudder.example.com/rudder/api/latest/groups/GroupID/QueryStatement' -d "WhereClause='
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "eq",
      "value": "afa11fa0-a2b1-4f00-b33f-44b91aaf443d" 
    }'"

Delete the first where-clause:

curl -H "X-API-Token: yourToken" -X DELETE 'http://rudder.example.com/rudder/api/latest/groups/GroupID/QueryStatement' -d "WhereClause='
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "eq",
      "value": "5ea1cb80-f4d3-11e4-be7b-228f081228de" 
    }'"

Change it to "and" logic:

curl -H "X-API-Token: yourToken" -X POST 'http://rudder.example.com/rudder/api/latest/groups/QueryStatement' -d "composition=And"

Replace the second by a different clause:

curl -H "X-API-Token: yourToken" -X POST 'http://rudder.example.com/rudder/api/latest/groups/QueryStatement' -d "WhereClause='
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "eq",
      "value": "0cfc3466-3e8c-11e5-bc06-5453cf67da3d" 
    }'" -d "NewWhereClause='
    {
      "objectType": "node",
      "attribute": "nodeId",
      "comparator": "neq",
      "value": "abbaedda-acdc-face-b00c-123456789012" 
    }'"
