There is at least an implementation in "simple storage" but I am confused as to what the intended api should be. The implementation I linked to says that delete
should take an id
but in actuality it takes the whole object. The test cases don't actually use delete so I can't tell what they think it should be. Any insights?
I can confirm that all of the botkit-storage-*
in the howdyai org don't seem to implement delete. Redis implements remove
though and takes an id
rather than the whole object
Is this fixed? https://github.com/howdyai/botkit/pull/854
I'm not sure from the comments: should we have delete methods? I'm needing them on MongoDB storage and i'm not sure if I should create a PR here in the project or should place it only inside my custom code.
What do you think?
The Jabber bot looks like it requires both 'delete' and 'all' to be implemented for storage methods. CoreBot already checks for the existence of 'get' and 'save', but not 'delete' and 'all'. Checks for 'delete' and 'all' could be added to the CoreBot (which might be a breaking change), placed in the Jabber bot, or the documentation updated to include either indicating that Jabber will only work with some storage mechanism implementations, or for the storage mechanisms indicating what methods that they should implement.
It looks like the Mongo storage implements all four methods now, as does Redis (except that 'delete' is 'remove'), and Datastore and Firebase do not implement 'delete'.
Looking at the other plugins (those listed here):
CouchDB and Datastore support all four methods Firestore, MySQL and Postgres (not maintained) do not support 'delete'
hey @fastbean-au are you a member of community.botkit.ai? you should join if not!
In the storage section of the README it mentions that storage backends should implement
delete
methods. None of the available backends implementdelete
nor can I find it in the internal implementation. The documentation needs to be updated presumably.
