Atomic Document Update Operations
Hello there I have a project that requires increasement and decreament of likes and comment and others, while many users maybe updating sulmultenously, that means getting document to check the latest count before updating maynot work as there might changes already before the whole process ends. I looked at the docs but nothing of such was found, Please how can I achieve that
TL;DR
Atomic document update operations are not currently supported. It is recommended to follow the GitHub issue for updates. Instead of incrementing likes directly, consider creating a separate "like" document to prevent multiple increments.
This is not supported at the moment. Best to add a 👍🏼 on https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/3905
For your case with "likes", it might be better to have a "like" document instead of incrementing because if you just increment, what's stopping someone from incrementing multiple times?
