Adding Attributes
I have tons of attributes to add. is there a way to programmatically do so instead of manually? It's a web app using nodejs/typescript
TL;DR
Developers can use the Appwrite CLI to maintain schema with appwrite.json, which is helpful for managing attributes programmatically in a web app using Node.js/TypeScript. Additionally, Appwrite allows developers to create databases, collections, and attributes entirely programmatically through the links provided.
Sure, you can create databases, collections and attributes entirely programatically.
https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-nodejs/databases#create https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-nodejs/databases#createCollection https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-nodejs/databases#createBooleanAttribute
Are you creating attributes at runtime? If so, why?
no I'm not
in addition to Kenny's suggestion, I would also recommend using the Appwrite CLI to maintain your schema with the appwrite.json
