All functions require an authenticated agent to be provided.

  agent,
  repo,
  collection,
  record
}: {
  agent: AtpAgent
  repo: string
  collection: string
  record: any
})

Adds createdAt and updatedAt fields to record for you.

updateRecord

export async function updateRecord({
  agent,
  repo,
  collection,
  rkey,
  swapCommit,
  swapRecord,
  recordUpdates
}: {
  agent: AtpAgent
  repo: string
  collection: string
  rkey: string
  swapCommit?: string
  swapRecord?: string
  recordUpdates: any
})

The main helper.

1. Performs a copy-on-write of the current record, adds $orig to the copy which points at main record.
2. Performs the update to the main record, adding or extending the $hist list.

getRecord

export async function getRecord({
  agent,

}: {
  agent: AtpAgent

  collection: string

Same as the normal getRecord with an option to fetch history and embed the value into the $hist entries.

Same as the normal deleteRecord with the option to also delete any history of the record.
