Definition

The definition of what data a database stores — what fields exist, their types, and their constraints.

تعريف البيانات التي تخزّنها قاعدة البيانات — ما الحقول الموجودة وأنواعها وقيودها.

Why It Matters

A clear schema prevents data inconsistency. The GlossaryTerm TypeScript interface in 404Fault acts as the schema for every glossary document.

مخطط واضح يمنع تناقض البيانات. واجهة GlossaryTerm في TypeScript في 404Fault تعمل كمخطط لكل مستند في الغلوساري.

Full Definition

A schema defines the structure of your data. In SQL databases, the schema is defined in table definitions (columns, data types, constraints). In Prisma, the schema is a .prisma file that describes your models. In TypeScript, a Zod schema validates data shape. In Firestore, there's no enforced schema — you rely on TypeScript interfaces and application-level validation.
المخطط يُعرِّف هيكل بياناتك. في قواعد البيانات SQL، يُعرَّف المخطط في تعريفات الجدول (الأعمدة وأنواع البيانات والقيود). في Prisma، المخطط ملف .prisma يصف نماذجك. في TypeScript، مخطط Zod يتحقق من شكل البيانات. في Firestore، لا يوجد مخطط مفروض — تعتمد على واجهات TypeScript والتحقق على مستوى التطبيق.
