redis-om / Schema

Class: Schema<T>

Defines a schema that determines how an Entity is mapped to Redis data structures. Construct by passing in a schema name, a SchemaDefinition, and optionally SchemaOptions:

interface Foo extends Entity {
  aString: string,
  aNumber: number,
  aBoolean: boolean,
  someText: string,
  aPoint: Point,
  aDate: Date,
  someStrings: string[],
}

const schema = new Schema<Foo>('foo', {
  aString: { type: 'string' },
  aNumber: { type: 'number' },
  aBoolean: { type: 'boolean' },
  someText: { type: 'text' },
  aPoint: { type: 'point' },
  aDate: { type: 'date' },
  someStrings: { type: 'string[]' }
}, {
  dataStructure: 'HASH'
})

A Schema is primarily used by a Repository which requires a Schema in its constructor.

Accessors

dataStructure

• get dataStructure(): DataStructure

The configured data structure, a string with the value of either HASH or JSON, that this Schema uses to store Entities in Redis.

Returns

DataStructure

Defined in

lib/schema/schema.ts:102

---

fields

• get fields(): Field[]

The Fields defined by this Schema.

Returns

Field[]

Defined in

lib/schema/schema.ts:78

---

indexHash

• get indexHash(): string

A hash for this Schema that is used to determine if the Schema has been changed when calling createIndex.

Returns

string

Defined in

lib/schema/schema.ts:130

---

indexHashName

• get indexHashName(): string

The configured name for the RediSearch index hash for this Schema.

Returns

string

Defined in

lib/schema/schema.ts:96

---

indexName

• get indexName(): string

The configured name for the RediSearch index for this Schema.

Returns

string

Defined in

lib/schema/schema.ts:93

---

schemaName

• get schemaName(): string

The name of the schema. Prefixes the ID when creating Redis keys. Combined with the results of idStrategy to generate a key. If name is foo and idStrategy returns 12345 then the generated key would be foo:12345.

Returns

string

Returns

StopWordOptions

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
name	Exclude<keyof T, keyof EntityInternal>	The name of the Field in this Schema.

Returns

null | Field

The Field, or null of not found.
