Hi @cmilazzo. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Sure, to delete an entity in Wasp, you can use the
delete
operation. Here is an example of how you can delete a File
entity based on its id
:
Then, in your actions.js
file, you can implement the deleteFile
function like this:
In this code, args.id
is the id of the File
entity you want to delete. The context.entities.File.delete
function is provided by Wasp and it uses the Prisma's CRUD API under the hood.
Please note that this is a basic example and does not include any error handling or validation. You might want to add those in a real-world application.
For more information, you can refer to the Wasp documentation (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/data-model/crud#declaring-a-crud-with-default-options).

Sorry @cmilazzo, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist:
Perhaps try again in 15mins?@kapa.ai Can you redefine the deleteFile function using typescript?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

Perhaps try again in 15mins?@kapa.ai I get this error with that code: server/operations/actions/index.ts(87,7): error TS2353: Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'User' does not exist in type '{ File: FileDelegate<RejectOnNotFound | RejectPerOperation, DefaultArgs>; }'.

Wohooo @cmilazzo, you just became a Waspeteer level 6!

The error message you're seeing suggests that the
User
entity is not recognized in the context of your deleteFile
function. This could be because the User
entity is not imported or not included in the context.
If you're trying to access the User
entity in your deleteFile
function, you should ensure that it's included in the context. However, based on the function you've shared, it seems like you're only working with the File
entity.
Here's how your TypeScript function should look if you're only working with the File
entity:
If you need to work with the User
entity as well, you should include it in the context like this:
Please ensure that your User
and File
entities are correctly defined in your Wasp code. For more information, you can refer to the Wasp documentation (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/data-model/crud#declaring-a-crud-with-default-options).
