Adding and Deleting Relationships

[lunar brook]

I am currently applying a very ugly way to manage adding and subtracting team members to the team, is there a better way to do this?:

export async function removeMembersFromTeam(
  teamId: string,
  memberIds: string[]
): Promise<void> {
  try {
    const team = await databases.getDocument(
      config.databaseId!,
      config.teamsCollectionId!,
      teamId
    );

    const updatedMembers = team.members.filter(
      (member: any) => !memberIds.includes(member.$id)
    );

    await databases.updateDocument(
      config.databaseId!,
      config.teamsCollectionId!,
      teamId,
      { members: updatedMembers }
    );
    console.log("Members removed successfully.");
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error removing members from team:", error);
    throw error;
  }
}

FYI, it's best to wrap code in backticks to format a bit nicer. You can use 1 backtick for inline code (https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#code) and 3 backticks for multiline code (https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#syntax-highlighting).

Are you using relationship attributes? Keep in mind, they are experimental and can lead to performance problems

In general, I would avoid arrays when I need to add/remove elements to them often. I would have a collection where each document is the mapping. Then, I can find and delete that specific mapping more easily

yes I am using those, and yes it is taking extremely long 😅
