TLDR James inquired about using the joins feature in v0.26 with typesense-go. Kishore Nallan explained that it's not yet supported and suggested using curl or Python client for collection creation.

I'm looking to try out the new joins feature in v0.26. Currently I load my data using typesense-go, but unfortunately the Reference field does not exist on api.CollectionSchema , and it doesn't appear there is a suitable branch supporting this feature. I'm wondering if I can just load the data without that field and then modify the schema via the dashboard, or does the reference field need to be present when the data is loaded?

We have not yet added support for the join feature in the Go client yet. So atleast for creating the collections you have to use curl or another untyped language client like Python client.

Reference needs to be present upfront as we have not implemented alter support for joins as well.

Thank you. Creating the collection with curl is a simple enough temporary solution.

Updating Collection Schema and Querying Unspecified Fields in Typesense

Stefan asked about updating a collection schema. Kishore Nallan stated it's not currently possible but suggested automatic schema detection in version 0.20. Rishabh sought a workaround and Jason suggested creating a new collection with a new schema and re-indexing the data. Rishabh also asked about defining custom field IDs which Jason confirmed is not possible with Typesense.
