get_index() method missing from Typescript Table type definition #1440
Closed
Description
Feature Request
Description of Problem:
I am using perspective with react/typescript and am streaming the table updates via websocket. I am currently unable to get the updates to apply to the index I have set (a unique identitifier), instead it keeps adding more rows and thus have duplicates of all the unique identifiers.
I have updated the index.d.ts in my local environment to include:
get_index(): Promise;under the Table type definition.
This enables me to obtain the table index and use this code:
const table = await worker.table(server_view, { index: await server_table.get_index() });Potential Solutions:
If there is no particular reason not to, I propose that the get_index() method is added to the typescript Table type definition file.
If there is a better/preferred way of dealing with this in react/typescript I would be happy to learn that and implement it.
