Quick question how to create Attributes for documents, reading the docs for Client and Server I can't find anything.
I want to set up database, collation and attributes from code, can anyone point me in the right direct.

https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-nodejs/databases
This should have all the functions you're looking for.

Thanks, don't know how I missed that.
But do you have to do it one by one.
const promise = databases.createIpAttribute('[DATABASE_ID]', '[COLLECTION_ID]', '', false);
and not a list of Attribute to process all at once?

It looks to be that way. I mean, I don't think it would be too terribly hard to create a function yourself that takes in something like an array of objects and creates those attributes from that?

async function createAttributes(attributes: Attributes) {
forEach(const attribute in attributes) {
switch(attribute.type) {
case "float":
await databases.createFloatAttribute('[DATABASE_ID]', '[COLLECTION_ID]', '', false);
case "everything else"
await blah blah blah
}
}
}
Not sure if this is the best option but just something I quickly wrote rn.

Yep, going have to do that 🙂 Just making sure 100%

Thanks for help 🙂

No problem! :)
