hi, I want to generate id like Sale-00001, Sale-00002 where the id of the my sale collection will be reset each time the prefix change. How can do it by tracking existing records and incrementing? Is there any appwrite package to do it easily ? cloud you guy show me the right way ?

TL;DR
The user wants to generate unique IDs in the format "Sale-00001, Sale-00002" for their sale collection. They are looking for guidance on how to track existing records and increment the ID each time the prefix changes. They also ask if there is an appwrite package available for this task. No solution provided.

You'll have to manage this yourself. maybe fetch the last one and then increment
