Entities in the data model all conform to the following protocols:
Base functionality for all entities. Currently just a schema identifier.
public protocol AllocBase {
static var schema: AllocSchema { get }
}
Used to retrieve and generate the entity's primary key.
This new struct-based implementation replaces the old string-based one.
The emptyKey
property can be used for picker tag values, as an example.
public protocol AllocKeyed: Hashable {
associatedtype Key: Hashable, Codable
var primaryKey: Key { get }
static var emptyKey: Key { get }
}
The entities also conform to the Identifiable
protocol where the id is the primary key.
Used to parse (decode) and generate (encode) delimited data for the entities.
public protocol AllocRowed: AllocKeyed {
// pre-decoded row, without strong typing
typealias RawRow = [String: String]
// decoded row, with stronger typing
typealias DecodedRow = [String: AnyHashable]
// create object from row
init(from row: DecodedRow) throws
static func decode(_ rawRows: [RawRow], rejectedRows: inout [RawRow]) throws -> [DecodedRow]
// additive update from row
mutating func update(from row: DecodedRow) throws
static func getPrimaryKey(_ row: DecodedRow) throws -> Key
}
Used to fetch a description of the entity's attributes.
public protocol AllocAttributable {
static var attributes: [AllocAttribute] { get }
}

Contributions are welcome. You are encouraged to submit pull requests to fix bugs, improve documentation, or offer new features.
The pull request need not be a production-ready feature or fix. It can be a draft of proposed changes, or simply a test to show that expected behavior is buggy. Discussion on the pull request can proceed from there.
Contributions should ultimately have adequate test coverage. See tests for current entities to see what coverage is expected.
