Model or Facet about dynamodb-toolbox HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi Brian,

I was rethinking that too. Not sure I like "Facet" (even though that's the NoSQL Workbench terminology) because I see facets as a way to view the data, not as the shape of an "entity". I was thinking about using "Entity", but I also don't want there to be confusion between the Workbench and this library.

I'm still working on v0.2. Been gathering some more feedback and implementing it in some projects to test out different strategies. I liked where v0.1 was going, but figured there were a lot of potential roadblocks. I'm hoping to release v0.2 soon.

Thanks for the feedback,
Jeremy

FYI, after talking to some other people about this, we've decided to use Entity to represent the current Models. Although it's not perfect, it's the probably the best word to describe what we mean. We're also moving to rename schemas to attributes so that it is more consistent with DynamoDB.

Yeah, Entity makes sense to me - will this renaming be done on v0.2 branch?

from dynamodb-toolbox.

Yes. I have been making so many changes to the codebase that all the old tests were broken, so I haven't pushed any changes to the new branch yet. It should be coming soon. (If only I didn't have so many other responsibilities 😉)

Implemented in the v0.2 branch.

Awesome, I took a quick read over the changes on v0.2 and they look great!
