deno-slack-data-mapper

deno module

deno-slack-data-mapper is a Deno library, which provides a greatly handy way to manage data using Slack’s next-generation hosting platform datastores.

Getting Started

Once you define a datastore table and its list of properties, your code is ready to use the data mapper. The complete project is available under ./examples.

datastores/surveys.ts

import { DefineDatastore, Schema } from "deno-slack-sdk/mod.ts";

// The datastore definition
export const Surveys = DefineDatastore({
  name: "surveys",
  // The primary key's type must be a string
  primary_key: "id",
  attributes: {
    id: { type: Schema.types.string, required: true },
    title: { type: Schema.types.string, required: true },
    question: { type: Schema.types.string }, // optional
    maxParticipants: { type: Schema.types.number }, // optional
  },
});

functions/survey_demo.ts

import { DefineFunction, SlackFunction } from "deno-slack-sdk/mod.ts";
import { DataMapper, Operator } from "../../mod.ts";
import { Surveys } from "../datastores/surveys.ts";

export const def = DefineFunction({
