Abstract Party reader — plumbing, not a TMF subtype recommendation.
TMF632 treats Party as abstract; the concrete subtypes are
Diffo.Provider.Organization and Diffo.Provider.Individual. Use those
(or your own domain leaf composed from BaseParty + the matching
BaseOrganization / BaseIndividual fragment) for any new Party data.
This resource is kept in core minimally to serve three roles:
- Abstract reader for projection bootstrap.
Diffo.Provider.get_party_by_id!/1and friends load via this resource soAshNeo4j.worlds/1can project the loaded node to its outermost concrete world. Symmetric with howDiffo.Provider.Place(the abstract reader for Place) andDiffo.Provider.Instance(the abstract reader for Instance) serve their respective cascades. - PartyRef-typed placeholder. A Party record with
type: :PartyRefandreferred_type:set represents a reference to an externally-managed Party.Diffo.Provider.create_party!(:PartyRef, %{referred_type: :X, ...})routes to this resource's:createaction. :Entity-typed abstract Party. Diffo extends the TMF632 type enum with:Entityfor party-like aggregates that aren't strictly Organization or Individual.Diffo.Provider.create_party!(:Entity, %{...})routes here.
See Diffo.Provider.BaseParty for the underlying fragment, attributes,
validations, and TMF @type / @referredType wire mapping.
Preferred API
Production code should use the typed subtype leaves (Organization /
Individual) or, more ergonomically, the type-atom dispatcher on
Diffo.Provider:
Diffo.Provider.create_party!(:Organization, %{...})Reads go through the dispatcher's projection path:
Diffo.Provider.get_party_by_id!(id) # returns concrete subtype structAn Ash Resource for a TMF Party
Summary
Types
@type t() :: %Diffo.Provider.Party{ __lateral_join_source__: term(), __meta__: term(), __metadata__: term(), __order__: term(), aggregates: term(), calculations: term(), created_at: term(), external_identifiers: term(), href: term(), id: term(), name: term(), notes: term(), party_refs: term(), referred_type: term(), type: term(), updated_at: term() }
Functions
Validates that the keys in the provided input are valid for at least one action on the resource.
Raises a KeyError error at compile time if not. This exists because generally a struct should only ever
be created by Ash as a result of a successful action. You should not be creating records manually in code,
e.g %MyResource{value: 1, value: 2}. Generally that is fine, but often with embedded resources it is nice
to be able to validate the keys that are being provided, e.g
Resource
|> Ash.Changeset.for_create(:create, %{embedded: EmbeddedResource.input(foo: 1, bar: 2)})
|> Ash.create()
Same as input/1, except restricts the keys to values accepted by the action provided.
