Options:-

  • Required: If you choose this option, it means that users must fill in the required fields before submitting data to the database. This ensures that all necessary information is collected and avoids submitting incomplete data. It prompts users to provide input in the designated fields that must be filled.

Ex. It will not take blank fields in the database

  • isPrivate: If you choose this option, it means that the system will keep the information entered in that field confidential and hidden from the user. This option is especially helpful when collecting sensitive data that should not be visible to the user.

Ex. It will not be visible to the user in the response

  • isArray: If you choose this option, it means the selected field will be set up as an array. This option is helpful when storing multiple items as a single entity.

Ex. It will take an array in the field.

  • unique: If you choose this option, it means that the system will require each value in that field to be different from the others. This is useful when you want to avoid duplicates in specific data fields.

Ex. when the user adds added value for that field, it won't allow taking that value again.

  • Searchable: If you choose this option, it means that it can be used to search for specific information in the database by functioning as a query criterion. For example, if you mark a user’s name field as searchable, users can search for other users by their name.

Ex. we can search with this field for matching documents.

  • Sortable: If you choose this option, it means that the field becomes eligible for use in sorting the elements of a collection resource in either ascending or descending order, enhancing the efficiency of data retrieval and organization.

Ex. it will sort the documents by selected field when we search the documents.

  • Has Default Value:- If you choose this option, it means that the system will automatically set a default value of either "true" or "false" for the field if you don't enter any other value. This helps to avoid leaving the field empty and ensures that the data is consistent and accurate. It also saves time by eliminating the need for manual input of default values.

Ex: If the user has not entered the value then it will take this value
