Passing value from Groovy script to DataSync in SoapUI - groovy

Question

I have a script that loops through a dataset X and for each record in that dataset X loops in another dataset Y and retrieves some results. How can I pass those results to a DataSink?
A number of suggestions around have been to use properties however in my groovy script I have a loop within which i receive the results and if i populate a property with every result i guess i will only be able to see the last result in the property, and my DataSink will only find the last result.
My code below:
def goodWeather = context.expand( '${#TestCase#goodWeather}' ) as String
if (goodWeather.equals("false"))
{
def response = context.expand( '${CityWeatherRequest#Response#declare namespace ns1=\'http://tempuri.org/\'; //ns1:GetCityWeatherResponse[1]/ns1:GetCityWeatherResult[1]/ns1:Weather[1]}' )
def cityinfo_City = context.expand( '${GetCitiesDS#cityinfo_City}' )
def cityinfo_Country = context.expand( '${GetCitiesDS#cityinfo_Country}' )
//Keep count to restrict number of returns. CountSuggestedCities is a property.
def count = context.expand( '${#TestCase#countSuggestedCities}' ) as Integer
assert count instanceof Integer
//Suggest some cities if skies are clear
if (response.contains("clear sky"))
{
if (count == 0) log.info("Making suggestions")
count ++
testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue("countSuggestedCities", count.toString());
log.info(cityinfo_City + " located in: " + cityinfo_Country);
}
//Check property maxSuggestedCities to see if maximum suggestes required as been reached.
if (count == (context.expand( '${#TestCase#maxSuggestedCities}' ) as Integer))
{
testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue("countSuggestedCities", "0");
testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue("goodWeather", "true");
testRunner.gotoStepByName("SeperatorScript");
}
}
else
{
testRunner.gotoStepByName("SeperatorScript");
}
What I want is to replace log.info(cityinfo_City + " located in: " + cityinfo_Country); with saving that information to a database using a DataSink.

I don't think the soapui doc provides examples about DataSink with groovy and database. But you can always use Groovy sql to do the insertion. Here is the example code:
def driverName = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils.registerJdbcDriver(driverName)
def user = "root" // change this , password, and jdbc url
def password = ""
def con = groovy.sql.Sql.newInstance("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test_for_so",
user, password, driverName)
def cityinfo_City = 'London'
def cityinfo_Country = 'England'
con.execute("INSERT INTO cityinfo (cityinfo_City, cityinfo_Country) VALUES (?, ?)",
[cityinfo_City, cityinfo_Country])
con.close()
