Feature request: put operation

[renewdoit]

It will be more natural to have a "put" operation, or "insert-or-update".

[mmcgrana]

This can be implemented at the client level with e.g.

["checked-write",
  ["count", "records", {"where": ["=" "id" _]}],
  0,
  ["insert", "records", {"id": _, "attr1": "val1", ...}]]

Were you aware of this but suggesting that this be implemented in the server for convenience?

Also, just out of curiosity, are you using a particular client library for interacting with FleetDB?

[renewdoit]

Not exactly.
What I mean is to check whether a record exists, if not, insert it otherwise update it (merge).
I use client side function to deal with it right now, but I think better to provide it at server side to gain better performance.
I'm using clojure client library to talk with fleetdb.

[mmcgrana]

Oh right, I see. In order to this completely on the server's side you would need either the "put" operation you mentioned above or a more general compound query that branched on a conditional. I'm not going to add these right away, but I'm putting them on my list to consider in the near future.

Thanks for your input and patience,
Mark
