Attribute Types

Each schema can use different attribute types to describe the different data shapes it needs to store.

General Guidelines

Attribute keys should be singular and camelCase:

// hatchify-app/schemas.ts
export const SalesPerson = {
  name: "SalesPerson",
  attributes: {
    firstName: string(), // 👀
    lastName: string(),
    age: integer(),
    yearsWorked: integer({ displayName: "Years of Experience" }),
    hireDate: datetime(),
    bio: text(),
    status: enumerate({ values: ["active", "inactive"] }),
    isDeleted: boolean(),
    birthday: dateonly(),
    uniqueId: uuid(),
  },
} satisfies PartialSchema

💾 Database Implications

Creates columns first_name, last_name, age, etc. in the sales_person table.

↔️ API Implications

Querying Data

Creates a /sales-persons API. firstName will be used in the query parameters:

GET /api/sales-persons?fields[SalesPerson]=firstName

Data Response

firstName will be used in the mutation and response payloads:

{
  "data": {
    "type": "SalesPerson",
    "id": "c98b2123-78e7-45e4-b57f-f9c1189bfd19",
    "attributes": {
      "firstName": "Mary" // 👀
    }
  }
}

displayName

The displayName is an optional parameter that can be used to customize the display name of an individual attribute in the UI. If displayName is not set, then the attribute key will be transformed to Title Case.

const SalesPerson = {
  name: "SalesPerson",
  attributes: {
    firstName: string(),
    lastName: string({ displayName: "Surname" }), // 👀
  },
} satisfies PartialSchema

💾 Database Implications

This has no effect on the database.

↔️ API Implications

This has no effect on the API.

🖼️ UI Implications

The lastName attribute will be displayed as "Surname" in the table header and filter dropdowns.

readOnly

The readOnly is an optional parameter to prevent updates to the attribute using Hatchify.

const SalesPerson = {
  name: "SalesPerson",
  attributes: {
    firstName: string(),
    lastName: string({ readOnly: true }), // 👀
  },
} satisfies PartialSchema

💾 Database Implications

This will prevent updating the attribute via Hatchify.

↔️ API Implications

This will prevent updating the attribute via Hatchify.

🖼️ UI Implications

This has no effect on the UI.

Further Customizations

Each of these types renders differently on the UI and have different customization options. For more reading:
