      Post-process a deletion operation, reacting to database changes which have occurred. Post-operation events occur for all connected clients.

      This batch-wise workflow occurs after individual Document#_onDelete workflows.

      Parameters

      • documents: Document[]

        The Document instances which were deleted

      • operation: DatabaseDeleteOperation

        Parameters of the database deletion operation

      • user: BaseUser

        The User who performed the deletion operation

      Returns Promise<void>

    • Internal

      Define a simple migration from one field name to another. The value of the data can be transformed during the migration by an optional application function.

      Parameters

      • data: object

        The data object being migrated

      • oldKey: string

        The old field name

      • newKey: string

        The new field name

      • apply: any

        An application function, otherwise the old value is applied

      Returns boolean

      Whether a migration was applied.

    • Clean a data source object to conform to a specific provided schema.

      Parameters

      • Optional source: object = {}

        The source data object

      • Optional options: object = {}

        Additional options which are passed to field cleaning methods

      Returns object

      The cleaned source data

    • Evaluate joint validation rules which apply validation conditions across multiple fields of the model. Field-specific validation rules should be defined as part of the DataSchema for the model. This method allows for testing aggregate rules which impose requirements on the overall model.

      Parameters

      • data: object

        Candidate data for the model

      Returns any

      Throws

      An error if a validation failure is detected

    • Create a new instance of this DataModel from a source record. The source is presumed to be trustworthy and is not strictly validated.

      Parameters

      • source: object

        Initial document data which comes from a trusted source.

      • Optional context: any = {}

        Model construction context

      Returns DataModel

    • Create a DataModel instance using a provided serialized JSON string.

      Parameters

      • json: string

        Serialized document data in string format

      Returns DataModel

      A constructed data model instance

    • Migrate candidate source data for this DataModel which may require initial cleaning or transformations.

      Parameters

      • source: object

        The candidate source data from which the model will be constructed

      Returns object

      Migrated source data, if necessary

    • Wrap data migration in a try/catch which attempts it safely

      Parameters

      • source: object

        The candidate source data from which the model will be constructed

      Returns object

      Migrated source data, if necessary

    • Take data which conforms to the current data schema and add backwards-compatible accessors to it in order to support older code which uses this data.

      Parameters

      • data: object

        Data which matches the current schema

      • Optional options: {
            embedded: boolean;
        } = {}

        Additional shimming options

        • embedded: boolean

          Apply shims to embedded models?

      Returns object

      Data with added backwards-compatible properties

    • Protected

      Parameters

      • oldKey: any
      • newKey: any
      • options: {} = {}

        Returns void
