App Context API for PubNub Go SDK

This page describes App Context (formerly Objects v2). To upgrade from Objects v1, refer to the migration guide.

App Context provides easy-to-use, serverless storage for user and channel data you need to build innovative, reliable, scalable applications. Use App Context to easily store metadata about your application users and channels, and their membership associations, without the need to stand up your own databases.

PubNub also triggers events when object data is set or removed from the database. Clients can receive these events in real time and update their front-end application accordingly.

`channel`	String	Yes		Name of channel from which members should be fetched.
`uuids`	Array	Yes		List of `UUIDs` for which `metadata` associated with each of them in context of `channel` should be set. Each entry is dictionary with `UUID` and optional `custom` fields. `custom` should be dictionary with simple objects: `String` and `Integer`.

`filter`	String	Optional		Expression to filter out results basing on specified criteria. For more details on the supported grammar, check here
`start`	String	Optional		Previously-returned cursor bookmark for fetching the next page.
`end`	String	Optional		Previously-returned cursor bookmark for fetching the previous page. Ignored if you also supply the `start` parameter.
`limit`	Integer	Optional	100	Number of objects to return in response. Default is `100`, which is also the maximum value.
`http_sync`	Boolean	Optional	false	Method will be executed `asynchronously` and will return future, to get its `value` you can use `value` method. If set to `true`, method will return array of envelopes (even if there's only one `envelope`). For `sync` methods `Envelope` object will be returned.
`callback`	Lambda accepting one parameter	Optional		`Callback` that will be called for each envelope. For `async` methods future will be returned, to retrieve `value` `Envelope` object you have to call `value` method (thread will be locked until the `value` is returned).

App Context Filtering Language Definition

The filtering language for App Context is similar to the stream filtering language.

Note the following:

Date/time properties, such as updated, must be compared to valid date/time strings formatted according to ISO 8601.
The LIKE operator supports wildcards denoted by the * character. A wildcard matches any sequence of arbitrary Unicode characters, including the empty sequence. The literal asterisk is matched when escaped using the backslash (\) character.
Values used with LIKE must be properly encoded just like any other string value. Thus, in order to escape an asterisk, the raw value must contain \\*.
The entire expression must be properly URL-encoded when used in the query string.

Custom property filtering

You can't filter by custom properties.

<expression>           ::= <and_expression> ( "||" <and_expression> )*
<and_expression>       ::= <binary_condition> ( "&&" <binary_condition> )*
<binary_condition>     ::= "!" <binary_condition> | "(" <expression> ")" | <relational_condition>
<relational_condition> ::= <property_path> <relational_operator> <value>
<property_path>        ::= <property_name> ( "." <property_name> )*
<property_name>        ::= <identifier> | "[" <string> "]"
<value>                ::= <string> | <number> | "true" | "false" | "null"

Tokens

<identifier>           ::=  <letter> | "$" | "_" ( <letter> | "$" | "_" | <digit> )*
<relational_operator>  ::= "==" | "!=" | "<=" | ">=" | "<" | ">" | "LIKE"
<string>               ::= <double_quote> ( "\" <double_quote> | "\" <special_char>
                            | "\" "u" <hex_digit> <hex_digit> <hex_digit> <hex_digit>
                            | <unicode_char> - <double_quote> - "\" )* <double_quote>

Sample object filtering operations

The following date/time comparison returns results that were modified on or after August 31st, 2019 (UTC):

updated >= "2019-08-31T00:00:00Z"

The following wildcard expression returns results whose name starts with the letter X:

name LIKE 'X*'

The following escaped wildcard expression returns results whose name contains an asterisk:

name LIKE '*\\**'
