functionDef.replace()
Learn: User-defined functions (UDFs) |
---|
We recommend you use FSL to create and update user-defined functions (UDFs). See FSL function schema. |
Replace function fields.
Description
The replace()
method replaces the given object function field values
with the given object values. The given fields must exist and be mutable.
Staged schema
If a database has staged schema, this method interacts with the database’s staged schema, not the active schema.
You can’t rename a function while a database has staged schema.
If the database has no staged schema, using this method is equivalent to making an unstaged schema change. Changes are applied immediately to the database’s active schema.
Avoid concurrent schema changes
Concurrent unstaged schema changes can cause contended transactions, even if the changes affect different resources. This includes unstaged changes made using:
-
The Fauna CLI
-
The Fauna Dashboard
-
The Fauna Core HTTP API’s Schema endpoints
A schema change triggers a transaction that validates the entire database schema. To avoid errors, do one of the following instead:
-
Perform unstaged schema changes sequentially
Examples
Function.byName("validateOrderStatusTransition")?.replace({
name: "validateOrderStatusTransition",
role: "server",
body: <<-END
(oldStatus, newStatus) => {
if (oldStatus == "cart" && newStatus != "processing") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
} else if (oldStatus == "processing" && newStatus != "shipped") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
} else if (oldStatus == "shipped" && newStatus != "delivered") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
}
}
END
})
{
name: "validateOrderStatusTransition",
coll: Function,
ts: Time("2099-10-28T15:11:25.460Z"),
body: <<-END
(oldStatus, newStatus) => {
if (oldStatus == "cart" && newStatus != "processing") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
} else if (oldStatus == "processing" && newStatus != "shipped") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
} else if (oldStatus == "shipped" && newStatus != "delivered") {
abort("Invalid status transition.")
}
}
END,
role: "server"
}
