Where can I see the description of types and schema key:value?

Hello,

Did you check first the documentation for creating schemas, models and types ?

If you want a description of the properties you can have a look in the MSON core definition files of System Runtime. For example, here is the description of a type schema:

{
  "_id": {
    "type": "string",
    "mandatory": true
  },
  "name": {
    "type": "string",
    "mandatory": true
  },
  "type": {
    "type": "string",
    "mandatory": true
  },
  "schema": {
    "type": "object",
    "mandatory": false
  },
  "value": {
    "type": ["any"],
    "mandatory": false
  },
  "core": {
    "type": "boolean",
    "mandatory": false
  },
  "description": {
    "type": "string",
    "mandatory": false
  }
}

For information there are also many checks done on save to help you to write valid schemas.

About your questions, there is not only one way to do what you want but here some tips.

If you have for example this definition for this new type:

{
  "_id": "d82472ce-3034-4bd2-ad55-ad25eb04c09c",
  "name": "eyeColor",
  "description": "eye colors",
  "type": "string",
  "value": ["blue", "green", "maroon", "other"]
}

and this model:

{
  "_id": "bdce6d04-d68f-4c2a-b36a-565ff06d3cb9",
  "_name": "Person",
  "_description": "",
  "eyeColor": {
    "description": "",
    "type": "eyeColor",
    "readOnly": false,
    "mandatory": false,
    "default": "maroon"
  }
}

To get the list of values to fill a dropdown where you can select an eye color:

// in a behavior you can require the Datastore to get the type definition
const db = this.require('db')
const eyeColorDefinition = db.collections()._Type.find({name: 'eyeColor'})[0]
const values = eyeColorDefinition.value

When a value is selected in the dropdown you can update the component:

this.require('id_of_the_component').eyeColor('blue')

Also remember that you can export your system and use it in any JS Framework. For example you can define your UI with React, import your system and then use create/edit/delete components.

Is that answer to your questions ?
