Introduce `identityProperties` over `identityProperties ` annotation
fabiomassimo opened this issue · comments
In my Data Model I have an entity A that has a relationship one-to-many to entity B.
When implementing the proper userInfo
keys for B I'd like to use as identityAttributes
a combination of an attribute in B and an attribute in A (for which B has an inverse relationship), such that I can uniquely identify an object in B for every unique object A.
Wouldn't it be better to use propertyByName
instead of attributeByName
to match the values that uniquely identifies an entity?
It could be something like identityProperties
that gives the opportunity to also include attributes within other objects in a relationship.
I am not sure if that is even possible to accomplish. Will have a look into it.
Thanks for your reply.
May I ask your opinion about this small update in my fork?
The idea is that when Groot
tries to set a relationship, by serializing a JSON object, the relationship is preserved to make sure only objects in the relationship are updated.
Thank you for your time.
Sorry for lack of tests, I'll add it as soon as possible and if you find it ok maybe open a PR.
