Properties configuration allows you to configure how your database properties will be used to generate the shape and behavior of your content.
#Usage
#By using array
const Post = defineDatabase(() => ({
name: 'Post',
databaseId: '<database_id>',
properties: [
{
key: 'metaDescription',
name: 'Short description',
},
],
}))
#By using object
const Post = defineDatabase(() => ({
name: 'Post',
databaseId: '<database_id>',
properties: {
metaDescription: {
name: 'Short description',
},
},
}))
#Shared options
#name|id
string (required)
Will map this property configuration to a database property. You can choose to use the id or the name depending
on your use case.
Defines the generated field name in your schema for this property.
Example:
defineDatabase(() => ({
name: 'Post',
databaseId: '<databaseId>',
properties: [
{
key: 'metaDescription',
name: 'Short description'
}
]
}))
allPosts.forEach(
(post) => console.log(post.metaDescription)
)
Pages that does not have this property defined will not be generated.
Defaults to false.
A short description to editors how the field is to be used.
#Relation property
#type
'relation' (required)
Defines the type of this property.
#relation
DatabaseType (required)
The database definition of the relation.
Example:
const Category = defineDatabase(() => ({
name: 'Category',
databaseId: '<database_id>',
}))
const Post = defineDatabase(() => ({
name: 'Post',
databaseId: '<database_id>',
properties: {
category: {
type: 'relation',
name: 'Category',
relation: Category,
},
},
}))
#Rollup property
A rollup property allows you to aggregate a property of the pages defined in a relation property (e.g. average numbers).
The cool thing is that you only have to configure the relation property and everything will work by itself!
