I have a problem connecting app maker with Google Cloud Platform. First I created two tables with one(department) to many(employee) relation. I also created an employee form.
Datasource on panel using employee, and on form using inherited:employee(create). Submit button using SaveChanges To Datasource. My Problem is, when I create the first record, it only saves employee data, while department_fk is empty.
When I create the second record, it will create data, but the department_fk will be placed on the first record.
+------+--------+---------------+-----------------------+-----------+
| id | name | department_fk | email | phone |
+------+--------+---------------+-----------------------+-----------+
| 150 | john | 262 | bermuara#gmail.com | 3393939 |
| 151 | brian | NULL | takdungder#gmail.com | 03030303 |
+------+--------+---------------+-----------------------+-----------+
On the above record, brian should be in department_fk 262, but it assigns it on john's record. How do I fix it?

What is a solid DynamoDB access pattern for storing data from a bunch of receipts of identical format? I would use SQL for maximum flexibility on more advanced analytics, but as a learning exercise want to see how far one can go with DynamoDB here. For starters I'd like to query for aggregate overall and per product spending for a given time range, track product price history, sort receipts by total, stuff along those lines. But I also want it to be as flexible as possible for future queries I haven't thought of yet. Would something like this, plus some GSI's, work?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| pk | sk | unit $ | qty | total $ | receipt total | items
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| "product a" | "2021-01-01T12:00:00Z" | 2 | 2 | 4 | |
| "product b" | "2021-01-01T12:00:00Z" | 2 | 3 | 6 | |
| "receipt" | "2021-01-01T12:00:00Z" | | | | 10 | array of above item data
| "product a" | "2021-01-02T12:00:00Z" | 1.75 | 3 | 5.25 | |
| "product c" | "2021-01-02T12:00:00Z" | 2 | 2 | 4 | |
| "receipt" | "2021-01-02T12:00:00Z" | | | | 9.25 | array of above item data
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You have to decide your access patterns, and build the design of the dynamo off that not the other way around. No one outside your team/product can tell you what your access patterns are. That entirely depends on your products need.
You have to ask: What pieces of Information do you have, and what do you need to retrieve when you have those pieces of information? You then have decide what is the most common ones that will be done the most and craft your PK/SK combinations off that. If you can't fit all your queries into just one or two bits of information, you may want to set up an Index - but Index's should be maintained only for far less often accessed queries.
If you need to, its also Accepted Practice to enter the same information twice - in two documents in the table - as writes are easier/cheaper than multiple reads (a write is pretty much one WCU per document - any query/scan can be multiple RCUs even if you only need one part -- plus Index's being replications of the table mean there is a desync chance if you write/read too quickly or try to write/read the same document in parallel calls)
Take your time now to sit down and consider everything your app will need to query the dynamo for. The more you can figure out now, the better, and if you can set your PK to something that will almost always be available to the calling function trying to query then you will be in a much better state.
How does one return a list of unique users from a dynamodb table with the following (simplified) schema? Does it require a GSI? This is for an app with small number of users, and I can think of ways that will work for my needs without creating a GSI (like scanning and filtering on SK, or creating a new item with list of user ids inside). But what is the scalable solution?
------------------------------------------------------
| pk | sk | amount | balance
------------------------------------------------------
| "user1" | "2021-01-01T12:00:00Z" | 7 |
| "user1" | "2021-01-03T12:00:00Z" | 5 |
| "user2" | "2021-01-01T12:00:00Z" | 3 |
| "user2" | "2021-01-03T12:00:00Z" | 2 |
| "user1" | "user1" | | 12
| "user2" | "user2" | | 5
Your data model isn't designed to fetch all unique users efficiently.
You certainly could use a scan operation and filter with your current data model, but that is inefficient.
If you want to fetch all users in a single query, you'll need to get all user information into a single partition. As you've identified, you could do this with a GSI. You could also re-organize your data model to accommodate this access pattern.
For example, you mentioned that the application has a small number of users. If the number of users is small enough, you could create a partition that stores a list of all users (e.g. PK=USERS). If you could do this under 400kb, that may be a viable solution.
The idiomatic solution is to create a global secondary index.
I've been trying to research this for a while now, what I want is very simple. I'm trying to compare two phone numbers and checks if they match because I'm tryign to implement something similar to telegram, notify a user if one of his contacts list created an account.
My problem is the following:
If I saved my contact using this format 0791234567 and my contact joined using this number +962791234567 both numbers are the same but the first is using local formats and the second using international formats. Does telegram finds these two numbers as a match and sends me a notification indicating that my contact has joined the network ?
I tried to use google library for parsing the numbers, but unfortunately the library doesn't always parse numbers in any format especially if the region was not provided.
Any hints ? or this is just not possible and all numbers must be of a specific format to be able to find a match ?
I think you should have two fields: ‍counry_code and phone_number, and when registering, login, changing the mobile number and etc, get each of the fields individually.
for example :
id | first_name| last_name | password | country_code |phone_number|...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | alihossein| shahabi | XXXXX | +98 |9377548654
or two tables users and phone_numbers :
id | first_name| last_name | password |
------------------------------------------
1 | alihossein| shahabi | XXXXX |
id | user_id| country_code | phone_number | active
--------------------------------------------------
1 | 1 | +98 | 9377541258 | 1
2 | 1 | +98 | 9377543333 | 0
Hi My scenario is like if suppose employee1 had created 3 client and employee2 had created 4 client,
What i need is that employee1 logged he must see only those detail of client which he had created.
Please guide me out how to proceed , bit confused about how create a table structure and how to get filter criteria.
Thanks
First of all, you need a Login, so that employees can to login to your site. Otherwise, you do not know which employee created which client.
Then, you need a business logic in which employee can only retrieve his/her client.
In database, you need to create a column to keep track of who created this client record.
Employee Table
EmployeeId | Username | Password
-----------+---------------------
1 | johndoe | hashed
2 | marrydoe | hashed
Role Table
RoleId | Name
-------+--------------
1 | Administrator
2 | Employee
EmployeesInRoles Table
EmployeeId | RoleId
-----------+--------
1 | 2
2 | 2
Client Table
ClientId | EmployeeId | Some other data
---------+------------+-----------------
1 | 1 | ...
2 | 1 | ...
this might be a simple question, but I'll ask anyway :)
Lets say I got a table in a database (oracle) which is currently stored in the first normal form.
Now I would like to convert this table into the third normal form. But I don't exactly know how. OK, I know how to put the table into third NF on paper, no problem but how do I do it technically?
I'll just give an example:
My tabe has the following attributes:
InvoiceNr. | Date | StaffNr. | Name | Lastname | Street | Zip | City
Now I would like to put it in the following format:
Table Invoice:
InvoiceNr. (PK) | Date | StaffNr.
Table Staff:
StaffNr. (PK) | Name | Lastname | Street | Zip
Table Zip:
Zip (PK) | City
Thank you very much in advance ;)
