SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides BeepDM developers through implementing the IDataSource interface, enabling consistent data access layers, cross-datasource compatibility, and maintainable engine-driven data operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a structured blueprint for creating new datasource drivers that implement CRUD, schema, and transaction operations.
  • Demonstrates how to use IDataSourceHelper for datasource-agnostic SQL generation, ensuring consistent behavior across RDBMS, NoSQL, and file-based sources.
  • Helps teams extend BeepDM by adding custom data sources, integrating new drivers, and validating entities before creation with standardized patterns.

Quick Start

Create a new class MyCustomDataSource that implements IDataSource, decorate it with AddinAttribute, wire it into the DME editor, and implement required methods using the guidance in this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement a custom datasource driver for BeepDM?

To implement a custom BeepDM datasource driver, create a class implementing IDataSource, decorate it with AddinAttribute, wire it into the DME editor, and implement required CRUD, schema, and transaction methods using standardized patterns.

What is IDataSourceHelper used for in BeepDM plugin development?

IDataSourceHelper provides datasource-agnostic SQL generation for BeepDM, ensuring consistent behavior across RDBMS, NoSQL, and file-based sources. Using it enforces standardized SQL generation and prevents datasource-specific query inconsistencies.

Do I need to validate entities before creating a datasource in BeepDM?

Yes, you must validate entities before creation in BeepDM. The IDataSource implementation pattern enforces entity validation prior to data operations to ensure schema integrity and prevent invalid data structures from being persisted.

Can I use BeepDM IDataSource patterns for NoSQL and file-based sources?

Yes, BeepDM IDataSource patterns apply to NoSQL and file-based sources alongside RDBMS. The implementation uses IDataSourceHelper for datasource-agnostic SQL generation, enabling cross-datasource compatibility and consistent data access layers across different source types.

How do I manage connections and errors when implementing IDataSource?

When implementing IDataSource, properly manage connections and errors by following the structured blueprint for datasource drivers. The skill guides standardized patterns for connection handling and error management to ensure maintainable engine-driven data operations.

What's the best way to update RDBMS datasource patterns in BeepDM?

The best way to update RDBMS datasource patterns in BeepDM is to apply the IDataSource implementation skill, which provides structured blueprints for updating existing drivers while ensuring datasource-agnostic SQL generation and consistent cross-datasource behavior.
