interface IDatabaseChange {

 String table;
 any key;
};

interface IDatabaseCreateChange : IDatabaseChange {

Description

Interface of a database change. The property 'type' tells whether the change is a creation (1), update (2) or deletion (3) of the given key in the given table.

If change is a creation, 'obj' will contain the created object.

If change is an update, 'mods' will contain a set of property paths and their altered values. A property path is the name of the property for root-properties. For nestled properties, the property path will be a dot-based path to the changed property.

Sample

Given the following object:

{
    address: {
        street: "Elm Street",
        city: "New York"
    }
}

If street has been changed to "East 13:th Street", the IDatabaseUpdateChange would look like this:

{
    "address.street": "East 13:th Street"
}
