sql script in appwrite ?
is it possible to execute an sql script to one of my collections in the appwrite db ?
TL;DR
Feature request for SQL script execution in Appwrite - not recommended due to performance issues. Access data through APIs provided instead. Consider maintaining running count in metadata collection for best results. If records don't change, use metadata collection. For similar results without using SQL, rely on Appwrite APIs.
No, Appwrite is an abstraction on top of the underlying database and you access the data via the APIs provided
then how can i get the same result as the script i sent without using sql ?
There's a feature request for something like this so you should add a š to https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/5667.
Doing something like the query you shared is not advised because it will be slower and slower as the number of records in your table grows. If the records don't get updated, the best approach is to keep a running count in some metadata collection
