getColumns

List<EssDataSourceColumn> getColumns()

The columns this data source exposes, in the order the server lists them.

Fetches the data source in full the first time it is asked, because the listing does not carry columns - GET /datasources answers name, type and connection and nothing more, while GET /datasources/{name} answers the whole thing.

Returns:

the columns, empty where the server reports none
