Decisions and cautions

Use this recipe only when its runtime matches the project you are documenting or building. Cloud recipes must stay inside the managed content backend boundary. Self-hosted recipes may use the server runtime, database, hooks, and infrastructure you control.

import { defineCollection, defineNumberField, defineTextField } from "@dyrected/core";

export const Orders = defineCollection({

    defineTextField({ name: "couponCode", label: "Coupon code" }),
    defineNumberField({
      name: "discountPercent",
      label: "Discount percentage",
      admin: { condition: "couponCode != null && couponCode != ''" },
    }),
  ],
});
