Relationship
The Relationship
type represents the concept of a map that connects one Row
object to another, often in another Table
.
{
remoteRowId: {[localRowId: Id]: Id};
localRowIds: {[remoteRowId: Id]: Ids};
linkedRowIds: {[firstRowId: Id]: Ids};
}
Type | Description | |
---|---|---|
remoteRowId | {[localRowId: Id]: Id} | |
localRowIds | {[remoteRowId: Id]: Ids} | |
linkedRowIds | {[firstRowId: Id]: Ids} |
The Relationship
has a one-to-many nature. One local Row
Id
is linked to one remote Row
Id
(in the remote Table
), as described by the setRelationshipDefinition
method - and one remote Row
Id
may map back to multiple local Row
Ids
(in the local Table
).
A Relationship
where the local Table
is the same as the remote Table
can be used to model a 'linked list', where Row
A references Row
B, Row
B references Row
C, and so on.
Note that the Relationship
type is not actually used in the API, and you instead enumerate and access its structure with the getRemoteRowId
method, the getLocalRowIds
method, and the getLinkedRowIds
method.
